Chapter 899: Spreading Rumors



As the saying goes, blocking someone's path to wealth is like killing their parents. Chen Tianchui probably thought that Wan Feng was blocking his path to wealth, and he had some grievances against Wan Feng in his heart.

Wan Feng didn't plan to explain any further. For someone who doesn't listen, he won't listen to a single word even if you say a million words to him earnestly.

For those who are obedient, you don't even have to say anything and they will understand your thoughts.

"Chen Tianchui, I've finished what I want to say. Whether you listen or not is up to you. You can do as you please. Thank you for your hospitality today!"

After saying that, Wan Feng stood up, turned around and walked out of the hotel, leaving Chen Tianchui in a daze.

Wan Feng found a guesthouse for himself to stay in, and he arrived at Qi Lan's house early the next morning.

Qi Lan is a good person and will be useful in the future, so Wan Feng must remind him.

There are still dozens of Clivias of different sizes in Qi Lan's flower cellar, and the skylights are being opened to prevent wind.

Seeing Wan Feng, Qi Lan laughed out loud: "Xiao Wan is here!"

When Wan Feng saw so many Clivias in Qi Lan's flower cellar, he frowned.

"Master Qi, why do you still have so many flowers? Didn't I tell you to get rid of all these Clivias in May?"

"Xiao Wan, you see the Clivia market is so hot right now, there shouldn't be any problems."

Ponzi schemes and games like Pass the Parcel take advantage of people's wishful thinking, believing that the last stick won't land in their hands. But once the stick does land in their hands, they can only beat their chests and stamp their feet, blaming the heavens and the earth.

"Master Qi, let me give you an analogy. Many things in this world have their ups and downs. The opening line of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, 'Underworld affairs long united must inevitably separate, and long divided must inevitably unite,' accurately captures the law of development of all things in the world. Nations rise and fall, people experience joys and sorrows, and all things develop like waves in the ocean: where there are peaks, there are inevitably troughs. Explain this phenomenon. Now that the Clivia has reached this price, do you think it can continue to rise? It's already on the crest of a storm. Do you think it will remain there forever?"

Qi Lan rubbed his temples: "Although I can't see what will happen to Clivia tomorrow, I think what you said makes sense. Xiao Wan, according to your meaning..."

"I estimate the collapse of the Clivia market won't occur until the 20th of next month. Before next month, except for a few plants you keep for your own enjoyment, you should dispose of all the other flowers. Take whatever you can get back."

"Okay! You young people are quick-witted. I'll listen to you this time. When someone comes to buy flowers, I'll start selling them at a guaranteed price."

"It's too slow to sit back and wait. Time won't wait for you. Finally, let Xingcheng take two days off to come back and help you deal with these flowers."

"That's fine too. I'll talk to him when he comes back at noon."

After leaving Qi Lan's house, Wan Feng went to the gasoline engine factory.

In this trend of Clivia, many factories in Changchun also followed suit and planted Clivia. They built flower cellars on the roof of the factory office and in the yard to cultivate Clivia.

The gasoline engine factory was no exception and built a flower cellar covering hundreds of square meters to cultivate a large number of Clivia.

Wan Feng from the gasoline engine factory might have dealings with him in the future, so he thought it would do no harm to remind Wu Zihua.

It doesn’t matter whether the other party listens or not. He just wastes some breath and suffers no loss.

"What? You said Clivia is going to die."

After Wan Feng repeated what he had said to Qi Lan to Wu Zihua, Wu Zihua looked at Wan Feng in shock.

"This is just my judgment. I think the collapse of Clivia will not last more than next month. Anyway, I told you this. I don't care whether you listen or not."

Wu Zihua frowned and tapped his fingers rhythmically on the table: "Where's the basis?"

"There's no basis for this. I've already said it's my judgment. There's actually no need for me to come here and tell you this. Whether you make a profit or a loss has nothing to do with me. But I think our cooperation was good a few days ago, and you're quite decisive, so I'm going to give you a heads up. Believe it or not, it's up to you."

"If you were in my position, what would you do with these Clivias?"

"Immediately send someone to push these Clivias into the market and sell them all. If you can break even, that's even better. If you can't, consider any losses as gains."

"Will this cause panic?"

"When everyone is crazy about Clivia, your little thing will cause panic? Not only will they not panic, but they will laugh at you and call you stupid."

"That's right! But let me think about it, my year-end bonus depends on these Clivias."

By the end of the year? Wu Zihua was counting on it not being too far off. It would be a blessing if Clivia could hold on until the end of next month.

After giving the reminder, Wu Zihua and Wan Feng went to Zheng Yuexian's house to give him another reminder, and finally came to Sancha River.

The two greenhouses built by Wan Feng of Tengfei's family are still there. Before leaving, Wan Feng told Tengfei's father that these two greenhouses can be used to grow some vegetables in winter. If managed properly in one winter, it should not be a problem to make 1,800 yuan.

Teng Erniu did not grow vegetables, but rented the land to villagers to grow Clivia.

Every household in Sanchahe has some Clivia cultivated. The two greenhouses he built were rented out to more than a dozen households for collective cultivation of Clivia.

Wan Feng repeated to the farmers in the greenhouse what he had said to the people before him.

What he never dreamed of was that someone actually called the police, accusing him of spreading rumors and creating social chaos.

When Wan Feng left Sanchahe to visit Yang Jianguo's home, a sidecar came to Yang Jianguo's home and arrested him.

Wan Feng was taken to a police station in Luyuan District in a daze. There were many people in the nearby police station that Wan Feng knew. These people had been to the scene to maintain order when he was selling flower seedlings.

"Why is it you? Someone called the police and accused you of spreading rumors."

"I spread rumors? What rumors did I spread?"

Isn't this just like sitting at home and waiting for trouble?

"The person who called the police said you spread rumors that the Clivia Market was going to collapse."

So that’s it!

This is not a rumor, it was going to happen anyway.

But before it happened, it was indeed considered spreading rumors, and it was a serious matter.

The Changchun Municipal Government is supporting Clivia. If you say that Clivia is going to be doomed at this time, it’s not a big deal.

"This isn't a rumor. It's the law of how things develop. You all know the saying 'everything goes to extremes and then reverses'. It's exactly what it means."

Wan Feng then told the police the story of Dutch tulips.

When Changchun first developed Clivia, it also learned from the Dutch tulips and wanted to make Clivia a world-famous flower like tulips. However, they only knew the current popularity of tulips but were unaware of the collapse of the tulip market that year.

In 1985, when there was no Internet and information was not well developed, these police officers were unaware of what had happened to Tulip.

Therefore, Wan Feng's story caused these police officers to think deeply.
