Chapter 967: Concession and Compensation

At noon two days later, representatives of several grain merchants in the Shanghai stock market were finally allowed to visit the twelve arrested persons in the cell by the special high school class.After half an hour of brief communication, they ran out with their noses in their hands. Two of them even vomited. Is this a place for people to stay?

Then the three people came to the Mara Villa to look for Chen Mingxiang. The US dollars and gold bars sent this time were several times more than the last time. They had already heard the warning from the extra-high class. If there was any delay, they would still have to go to the prison to chew. Drink cold water in Wowotou.

"Director Chen, you are also a businessman. No matter what kind of request, we can all sit down and talk slowly. I hope you can help first and release your colleagues in jail. The environment is really bad. These People have trouble with their stomachs, even walking is very difficult!" The grain merchant surnamed Liu said with a wry smile.

Speaking of which, Chen Mingxiang is also a member of the grain merchants. He is also in the grain business and has his own rice shop in the Shanghai Stock Exchange.However, Fenghua's main supply targets are the military police headquarters and the marine corps headquarters, and they rarely deal with ordinary people.

"I can think of a way to get people out of the super high class, but only one night, let them go home, take a shower, change clothes, and then come to my house for dinner. To tell you the truth, if there is no agreement tonight , They have to return to the cell, and it is estimated that the three of you will also go in tomorrow."

"I believe you have already received the news. Starting from June, the power of food rationing on the Shanghai Stock Exchange will be transferred to the Ministry of Food of the Jinling Government. Procurement and rationing will require your efforts. If it were not for this reason, it would have been against you. You have started."

"Since they are all engaged in business, I understand your current mood. I am not willing to make 10,000 yuan less for a ton. But when the food source is scarce, you big households can only feel wronged. It’s a last resort."

"You and I all know that the price of grain in the Shanghai stock market must only fluctuate. In the rice-producing areas of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui, most of the output must be used as military rations for the Japanese, and very few can support the Shanghai stock market. So, Sooner or later, when the loss is recovered, the admission qualification is the most important."

"The impact of this strike is too bad. Almost all of the industries of most Japanese businessmen in the Shanghai stock market have been suspended. The production of munitions for the Japanese army has been severely hindered, which has touched the nerves of the Japanese. It is an exception to not kill people and copy their homes. Up."

"Under such circumstances, no matter whether you are in the backstage of the Jinling government or I, there is no way to help you. No amount of money can be sent. In conjunction with the relief of the food shortage for a period of time, the order of the Shanghai market can be stabilized. Your biggest way out." Chen Mingxiang said.

When the Shanghai stock market is facing an existential crisis, these speculators are still hoarding and colluding with corrupt officials to drive up food prices. They are simply eating the people’s flesh and drinking the people’s blood. Chen Mingxiang hates to kill all these people.

However, in the face of huge interests, another group of people will not necessarily be much better than this group of people. Without strong government restraint, substantive problems will never be solved.

Besides, in the Kuomintang-ruled area ruled by the Shancheng government, it is not uncommon for speculators like this to be common. The famous Minister Confucius and his family are all masters of speculation. What can he do?

"Director Chen, we dare not hide it from you. The Japanese navy asked for 30,000 tons of rice, and more than 20 merchants were barely able to collect it, but we couldn't get the 36,000 tons of rice for the municipal government. , This is in ten thousand tons as a unit." said the grain merchant surnamed Han.

Grain merchants are definitely unwilling to lose so much profits. They cannot do business at a loss. Even if they are facing the disaster of prison, they have to grit their teeth and try to recover some of the losses.

The food required by the navy cannot be discounted because it is a Japanese and a terrible devils, but there is room for bargaining on food for the people!

"It's all in business. Why are you so stupid? If you don't have enough rice, you can use coarse grains. As long as it is grain, I don't care if it is rice or cornmeal. People will starve to death. Is coarse grain and fine grain important?"

"Twenty thousand tons of coarse grain rice and 16,000 tons of broken rice. Even if this matter is over, we can't make it together. We all know it in our hearts. If we don't believe it, we will turn it out and let it dry. If I don't make it up by myself, Do you dare?" Chen Mingxiang said lightly.

These speculators must have more food in their hands, because the speculation in this industry is about quantity. However, Chen Mingxiang estimated that no matter how much it is, the cost of just hoarding the food will be. It's an astronomical number.

It's not that he is softhearted. The dog will jump over the wall when he is anxious, and the rabbit will bite people when he is anxious. Chen Mingxiang also doesn't want to drive the grain merchants into anxious eyes, and pull the hatred to this point. They are good people, but the bottom line is that the amount of food cannot shrink.

Probably because he was born and lived in the north for a period of time, Chen Mingxiang does not reject coarse grains. He eats wowotou or wowotou with stick noodles mixed with bean noodles. This is also a problem?People are going to be starved to death, and they care about coarse and fine grains. Even such coarse grains will not last long.

And as an agent of the Military Regiment Bureau, he always keeps in mind one thing, as long as he can survive, there is hope for everything, and being alive is the most important thing. This is the general environment.

"Director Chen, the food shortage problem in the Shanghai stock market was not caused by our speculation alone. I am afraid you know better than anyone else. Now that we are forced to pay such a high price, we have to give it to us. A corresponding return, right?" asked the grain merchant surnamed Liu.

With their arms over their thighs, the speculators faced a dangerous situation and had to agree to this transaction, but they were not reconciled, hoping to use this resource in exchange for some reward. Everyone knows that the two sides are also interdependent. Who It will not kill them all.

Speculators never think that their actions are wrong. Their theory is that if the Shanghai stock market’s grain channels remain open, it will be difficult to hoard them. The local rice is not enough, so you can buy foreign rice from other countries. Why didn't such a thing happen before?

The main reason for war is that the war has brought the soil for the survival of this kind of speculators. The food shortage is the result of changes in the general environment, and their speculation can only be the second factor.

"Of course, for your outstanding contributions to the Shanghai market, the municipal government and Japan will have special treatment. The food source of the Shanghai market is the three provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui. When the matter is over, you can manage the gendarmerie and the police. Make up the amount of food this time."

"By that time, the new grains in the three provinces will be on the market, and the price will definitely be much higher than now. You actually didn't have much loss." Faced with this shameless statement, Chen Mingxiang didn't bother to spend more time with them. Own plan.
