The weather this year seemed particularly strange. From March to early April, it was basically rainy. After mid-April, the weather became particularly dry and hot. Around April 10th, the weather was almost the same as that in July and August.
When Yuan Fangguo noticed the strange weather, he suddenly thought of the unprecedented flood in 1998.
In his previous life, as a member of the armed police force, he also rushed to the front line of flood control and rescue and participated in it.
Looking out at the flood control site, it seems like there is an endless ocean in front of you.
At that time, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that human beings are still quite insignificant in the face of nature.
Thinking of that scene, Yuan Fangguo couldn't help but feel an immense fear deep in his heart.
He even began to worry about his second brother's assignment. If his second brother was assigned to those front-line combat units, it would be difficult to guarantee that he would be pulled directly from school to the front line.
For this purpose, he also made a special phone call to his second brother, asking him about his specific plans for this year's graduation assignment.
"I'm ready to come back." Yuan Fangtai said.
"Have you found any connections?"
"I told our old company commander about it, and he said he would help."
"That's good. It will be convenient for us to do anything if we can return to Bashu Province."
"Well, big brother won't talk to you anymore. We are about to have night training." It was only six forty, but Yuan Fangtai sounded anxious on the phone.
"Okay, take care of yourself and don't overwork yourself. I'll transfer 20,000 yuan to your bank card later."
"Brother, what do I need the money for?" Yuan Fangtai couldn't help but ask.
"Have you become stupid after staying in the military academy? Your old company commander is doing things for you. Doesn't that cost money?"
"Oh, I almost forgot if you hadn't mentioned it." Yuan Fangtai looked embarrassed.
"Okay, go train."
"Well, okay, then you should take care of yourself too."
After finishing the call with his second brother, Yuan Fangguo suddenly thought of another problem, which was the rising prices of agricultural products.
According to the normal historical trajectory, not only the Yangtze River, but many major rivers will have particularly large water flows this year. Rising floods mean a reduction in agricultural products, and a reduction in agricultural products means rising prices.
He decided to make a good profit from the price difference of agricultural products.
However, he was not in a hurry to take action. Instead, he asked his subordinates to conduct research in various provinces. Around the end of April, he obtained first-hand price data for 1997 and 1998.
Soybeans, sorghum, garlic, ginger... The prices of many agricultural products have been relatively low last year and at the beginning of this year. This is an excellent opportunity for him to buy at the bottom.
However, a new problem arises. Buying these agricultural products is simple and convenient, but the key is the storage issue.
Where to store tens of thousands of tons of agricultural products is a problem that gives him a headache.
Regarding this issue, Yuan Fangguo also contacted the leaders of the district grain bureau and asked them to help see if there was any good solution.
The leaders of the Grain Bureau were unable to help him with this problem. At present, all the granaries were preparing for the summer and autumn harvests and were unable to provide him with any extra grain.
It was too late to build a temporary granary.
Yuan Fangguo began to get a little angry about this issue, and he had nosebleeds for no apparent reason several times in broad daylight.
He originally wanted to free up some space in the logistics base of Port L, but Port L is close to the Yangtze River. For this kind of flood that occurs once in a century, he could not predict whether the flood would spread to the base.
Of course, this method is not feasible.
Just when Yuan Fangguo was very anxious and angry, Fu Zhijun gave him a suggestion.
In a county on the outskirts of Chengdu, there is a huge air-raid shelter that can accommodate up to 5,000 people. Currently, this air-raid shelter has been abandoned. If he needs it, he only needs to make some simple repairs.
Upon hearing the news about Fu Zhijun, Yuan Fangguo immediately expressed his need.
When we went to the scene, we saw that except for the dilapidated entrance and exit roads, everything inside was intact, even the ventilation system from decades ago was still there.
Undoubtedly, this is a pretty good storage place.
Immediately, Yuan Fangguo signed a lease contract with the military district. He did not dare to sign for too long, only one year.
After settling the storage issue, Yuan Fangguo asked Zhao Yong, Dafei and others to look for places to store grain in the north in their spare time.
There are many plains in the north, and there are not many caves built on the mountains. However, Zhao Yong and Dafei took great pains to find several air-raid shelters dug during the construction of the Third Front.
After a busy period, everything was ready before May Day.
The issue of purchasing grain was brought up.
To this end, Yuan Fangguo's group also set up a special company to purchase agricultural products with relatively low unit prices.
These grains are transported to various warehouses in a continuous stream by land, water or rail.
In the blink of an eye, my girlfriend has been in the capital for more than ten days, and it is estimated that she should be back soon.
Yuan Fangguo has been very busy recently. Not only does he have to go to the site to see the construction of the wholesale market, but he also has to coordinate the affairs of grain and supermarket chain stores. After waiting for his girlfriend to return from the capital, his busy days finally came to an end.
After a fierce fight in the evening, Song Yiting lay in his arms and told him about her trip to the capital.
The songs he wrote were all recognized by the record company, especially the one that he liked. Through his girlfriend's beautiful voice, he completely conquered the record company.
"Then what should we do next?" Yuan Fangguo couldn't help but ask.
"Then they asked me to go home and wait for notification." Song Yiting said without hesitation.
"there is none left?"
“No more.”
"Why do I feel that this record company is so unprofessional?" A big question mark suddenly arose in Yuan Fangguo's heart.
"No, I feel pretty good. Everything is very professional." Song Yiting said.
"Since you have conquered them, why don't you sign a contract with you immediately? Aren't you worried that you will let go of an excellent singer in vain?" Yuan Fangguo said.
Song Yiting couldn't help but laugh when she heard her boyfriend's somewhat flattering words. "That's true, but we're a professional company, so we can't rush into anything. By the way, I want to ask you a question, dear?"
