Chapter 385 Grain Trading No Tigers in the Mountains
Chapter 385 Grain Trading No Tigers in the Mountains
"Did you know that the Mediterranean Sea was cut off, the Japanese island was cut off food, and the price of food skyrocketed."
"???"
After the person in charge of the Wajima Council was stunned, he wanted to say that he was joking, but saw an urgent message from his assistant.
Xiaobu, the general manager of North America, and Raymond, the chief of defense of North America, asked Wajima to deploy 2 troops to participate in the military operation to liberate Libya.
Libya is not only a member of OPEC, but also the crossroads of the Mediterranean Sea.
It reaches Gibraltar to the east, enters the Suez Canal to the west, communicates with Italy and the Balkans to the north, and runs through the entire African region to the south.
Germany wins over Italy, binds the Balkan Peninsula, develops non-regional agricultural reclamation projects, and completes a three-point and one-line large-scale strategy for the Mediterranean. If Libya is captured again, the three points will be connected. Even if North America controls Suez, it will lose Mediterranean route.
At that time, the North American fuel reserves will run out within 150 days.
In contrast to North Germany.
After two years of development, the air transport system in North Germany has become quite mature.
The electric power industry in Germany has also begun to take shape under the enhancement of supercapacitors and flywheel batteries.
If neither side has fuel, what North America will face will be 'Kirov Charging Station' + 'Electric Power Steel Torrent' + 'Electric Robot Swarm'.
So North America insisted on liberating Libya.
In the past year, Libya has successively obtained the five-year mining rights of three oil fields, and exchanged the first and second Libyan fleets, the first to fifth German mechanic divisions in Libya, and the first and second Libyan fleets from Germany. Second Air Force Battalion.
Its strength is second only to Italy in the international arena, and has more than 1 German instructors.
Don’t think that Italy’s military power is useless. During the battle for the Aynak copper mine last year, the third brother followed North America to fight North America, but ran to snatch the large Hazara coal field that Italy bought from Fara. Then the 15 main force was evacuated by the Italian 3 expeditionary force of the Aynak Copper Mine and made dumplings.
And from the end of the battle for the Aynak Copper Mine, persist until now.
It can be said that, apart from the lack of peaceful weapons, Italy's overall military strength has surpassed the third brother and the local chicken, ranking eighth in the world.
By the same token, Libya's military strength is not in vain at all.
In the words of Uncle Kafiza, hitting Nanbangzi or Wadao in Libya is as easy as swishing a fly to death.
Therefore, the outbreak of the Libyan war will be a confrontation between the German and American armed forces, and the Mediterranean route will definitely be interrupted.
The person in charge of the Wajima Council took less than 20 seconds to think about this and then turned to the food issue.
In the context of modern warfare, many people ignore the big killer of food.
Like Wajima.
Wajima is now the world's largest grain importer.
(The East was a grain exporter in 02, but it suddenly became the world's largest grain importer in 04. The reasons are complicated, which probably means that the international grain price is lower, and it is more suitable to buy it than to grow it yourself. For example, soybeans that can be processed into soybean meal for feed , Before 04, soybeans were too expensive, and the aquaculture industry in the East was underdeveloped. Ordinary families were only willing to eat meat during the holidays. After 04, the East imported a large amount of soybeans, and the aquaculture industry rose, and every household could afford meat. Therefore, comparing The quality of food importing and exporting countries does not matter much, only the ability to feed oneself is the most important thing. Of course, if soybeans are not imported, the price of meat will definitely rise).
With reference to last year's data, Wajima's grain self-sufficiency rate is only 31%, the import volume of staple grains is as high as 2500 million tons, and the import volume of feed and industrial grains is as high as 1.14 million tons.
Among them, rice mainly comes from North America, Thailand, and the East. The three parties accounted for 50%, 40%, and 10% of the total rice imports respectively.
Wheat mainly comes from North America, Canada, and Australia, and the three parties account for 60%, 20%, and 20% of the total wheat imports respectively.
Corn mainly comes from North America, Brazil, and South Africa. The three parties accounted for 80%, 15%, and 5% of the total corn imports respectively.
Soybeans mainly come from North America.
This shows how dependent Wajima is on North American food.
This is also the main reason why the vast majority of people in Wajima were excited but dared not respond after the dog dealer proposed "West against Germany and North America, and east to North America".
After all, all the food was provided by North America, and Wajima couldn't resist at all.
But now the dog dealer intends to sell food...
In the mind of the person in charge of the Wajima Council, the idea of "resisting Germany in the west and North America in the west and reaching North America in the east" once again emerged in the mind.
Perhaps this is an excellent opportunity to get rid of North American control.
The problem is that Wajima is too deeply bound to North America.
Metals, coal, crude oil, finance.
Moreover, after being untied from North America, Wajima, which has no resources, means that it will be bound to Germany.
What is the difference between Germany and North America?
There is no difference, neither is a good bird for Wajima.
Just like the dog dealer in front of him, although he is handsome, his face is exactly the same as Raymond.
The person in charge of the Wajima Council changed his mind suddenly, and finally made a decision.
"Xu Sang, I can't make the decision on the matter of food imports. It needs to be discussed collectively by the council."
"No problem, my current quotation here is twice the market price, you should finalize the import volume as soon as possible."
"Xu Sang, didn't you say 1.5 times earlier?"
"That was before the Mediterranean sailing was cut off. Now that the sailing is off, the price will naturally rise."
"..."
"Oh? It's up again. Several shipments of corn you imported from Brazil were detained by pirates in the Red Sea area, and a batch of wheat imported from the east coast of North America capsized in the waters of Gibraltar... As I said before, things are impermanent, I don’t have any reserves, can I do it?”
The person in charge of Washima Council really wanted to yell at Baga, but he knew that if he made a sound, he would definitely die tonight. Besides, he was the person in charge of the council, which was a temporary position, not the chief of Washima, so there was no need to offend the dog dealers.
"Xu Sang, we will come up with a grain import plan as soon as possible."
"Don't worry, don't worry."
Xu Fei hung up the phone, and casually sent a message of "Souhu".
"The brazen North America is undermining the stability and peace of the Asia-Pacific region, and even openly attacked the giant cruise ship transporting corn and wheat on Wajima...Down with capitalist imperialism!" '
Kafiza likes it.
Raymond:? ? ?
Bush:? ? ?
"You can't blame me, who let your mainstream media, such as ABC, CBS, NBC, and Fox News, all spread rumors and slander the director of the factory."
Xu Fei put away the communicator and called to one of the heads of the agricultural reclamation corps who escorted the food, "According to the old rules, prepare 2000 million tons and send them to Wajima."
"Director, what are the old rules?"
"Add some sand to increase the weight, and then add some wheat bran to increase the volume. You can earn hundreds of dollars per ton. The most important thing is that the intubation can hardly be detected."
"???"
When you were young, who did you learn from so badly?
One of the leaders of the Agricultural Reclamation Corps, after a little sluggishness, quickly greeted the workers, mobilized several trucks, and went straight to the depths of Daze to dig out the salinized sand.
Not to mention, this kind of soil seems to be a desiccant.
Well, if Wajima finds out, let’s talk about the desiccant, if there is a problem, ask the other party to contact Director Xu.
……
At present, the family has not yet researched a way to store food for a long time.
The production of genetically modified grains in northern Mexico and Africa is so high. After selling them, they can buy ordinary grains or even organic grains, which is beneficial to the country and the people.
Feeling good about himself, Xu Fei touched his non-existent big belly, smiled like a Maitreya Buddha, led the vicious dog, and returned to Xujia Village.
Walking halfway, I met Lan Feng's son Dahei, Lanfeng's younger brother's son Xiaohei, Erya from his own village.
The three of them were downcast and listless, like eggplants beaten by frost, wilting.
"What's the matter, did you poke a hornet's nest?"
Er Ya raised her head, "Village Chief, you are back."
"If you encounter any troubles, tell me to make me happy."
"Our New Year's money is gone again."
"I definitely didn't do it, let alone the vicious dog."
"Ang, we know, so we must not find it back."
"Hey, isn't it just New Year's money, and there will be more next year."
"But we want to buy a car, and the students in the class all drive cars to class."
"Do you have a driver's license? Is there a dedicated lane? I will seize them later."
"However, Chinese New Year is coming soon, they are all playing on the embankment, and we want to open it too."
Xu Fei rubbed the heads of the three little kids, "Why is this so difficult, let's go, the village chief will give you one each."
"Really?"
"necessary."
Erya immediately jumped up happily, "Village Chief, I want to drive the most dazzling one!"
"no problem!"
Dahei and Xiaohei are not from the village, they are more restrained, but they are also quite happy.
Xu Fei led everyone into Daze Power, "However, you have to promise me one thing."
"It's okay!" Erya patted her chest.
"We have to wear makeup to drive."
"En!" The three little kids nodded heavily.
Xu Fei came to the design department, found a basic production line with its own computer, carefully selected three models, then reduced the scale, replaced the engine, added accessories, and then notified the relevant production lines to work overtime to manufacture three children's version cars.
Afterwards, he brought Dahei, Xiaohei, and Erya to Ximen barbershop, asked the three of them to close their eyes, and asked the proprietress to help them with makeup.
for a long time.
Under the night, on the non-motorized lane of Central Avenue, with dim street lights, Erya, wearing a checkered padded jacket, smeared white powder and blush on her face, accompanied by an enthusiastic DJ, drove a walking tractor, and came suddenly .
Behind him, Da Hei and Xiao Hei, who were unkempt and unkempt, were wrapped in military overcoats, driving four agricultural wheels and three agricultural wheels pulling bedding respectively, with the same momentum, even dragging thick black smoke.
Pedestrians along the road looked sideways, or were terrified, or shocked, or dumbfounded.
"The cubs of our Xujia Village are so shining and eye-catching."
Satisfied, Xu Fei rode his smart bicycle, followed closely, and let the hounds guarding the traffic secretly.
When they arrived at the Xujia Village Square, the three little kids were already having fun, laughing and chasing and colliding with each other.
Xu Fei was sitting on a bench, seeing Erya's parents who were off work, waving from a distance.
Seeing this, the latter quickly ran over, "Village Chief, are you back?"
"I know that your family values boys over girls, otherwise you wouldn't throw Erya into my old sister-in-law (grandma Erya), but the times are different, and you always want Erya to marry her sister, why don't you want to recruit her?" A son-in-law comes back? In the future, if the child takes our surname, he can still share the land and get the shares."
"What the village chief said is that it's just that the reputation is not good. After all, my family is not extinct."
"Believe it or not, I will let you all have daughters in the future?"
"..."
"Now our living conditions are better, no matter Erya, her sister, or just-born Xu Banton, we have to treat them fairly, give what we deserve, and we can't lack any of them, otherwise you will move to Xiaohu The urban-rural fringe part of the town will be named Evil from now on.”
"And the surname 'Evil'?"
"Isn't a vicious dog surnamed evil?"
"Isn't that the same surname as a dog?"
"You're not from Xujia Village anymore, it's none of my business who you will be named after."
"Village chief, don't worry, we will correct our mistakes, throw away the burden of old thoughts, strengthen our personal qualities, and strive to be Daze people in the new era."
"Who taught this?"
"The new town secretary, who is currently running night school."
"Have a heart."
Thinking of the previous agreement with the other party, Xu Fei immediately asked the finance company to donate 2 million red notes for the construction cost of the compound in Huangnigang Township.
Looking back, Erya's parents had already played with Erya and the others.
"As a parent, who doesn't like their children, unless they are not their own."
Xu Fei made up his mind and contacted Casal of the Citizen's Hospital to ask the other party to prepare a treatment plan for 'twins' for Erya's parents, requiring all of them to be boys.
Then I greeted Erya's parents again, "The Taoism at Lao Huang's side is actually very effective. It just so happens that during the Spring Festival, Lei Ze Technology is not very busy. You go there and pay your respects sincerely. Maybe you can conceive two boys when you come back."
"Okay village chief, we're leaving tomorrow."
"Don't miss the New Year's greetings on New Year's Day."
"..."
The next day.
Xu Fei asked Dahei to lead the vicious dog, and drove Erya and Xiaohe to the Daze Grand Theater.
This is a building transformed from two chariot factories, and the whole is like a 'giant gyroscope'.
The construction method is very simple. First place a 1000x200 meter tank factory, hollow out the middle area to make the building a "damaged unit", and then install a 1000x200 meter tank factory horizontally to form an X-shaped basic building.
Afterwards, the roof was removed and changed to an umbrella-shaped steel structure roof, painted silver-gray on the outside, and dotted with RGB light strips, lamp beads, and spotlights. At night, the halo flows, and the building presents a kind of "gyroscope rotation" to people. poor vision.
Come inside.
A 'gala' is being held inside.
Live on channel 18, rebroadcast on Deutsche Radio, rebroadcast tomorrow morning on Boston and Austin.
Thanks to the strength of the Daze Industrial Complex, not only the employees but also all kinds of well-known superstars at home and abroad participated in the performance.
As for the cost...
It's an honor to let them perform in Daze, and it's a chance to show their faces. Wouldn't it be vulgar to talk about money?
This includes the news anchors of Channel 1 and so on.
Director Shang of the Daze Industrial Research Office found someone with a baby and a dog when he learned that his employer had returned, "Xiao Xu, the rehearsal for the Spring Festival Gala, I asked several times to let people go here."
"I'm also a village gala, what's the difference, don't let it go, I'm still waiting for the village gala on New Year's Eve."
"How should I shirk?"
"You let them think about the consequences of offending and adults."
'Well, you have already called yourself, and I think people will not want anyone else. '
Director Shang thought about it, took out the communicator, and contacted Channel 1.
Xu Fei looked around the crowds of people in the factory, and waited for the old man to finish his work, "Is there anything bad about you recently?"
"Too many to mention."
"Then stop talking."
"..."
"Old Shang, these gala songs, MVs, video collections, etc., and all kinds of fun elements, must be preserved well. When our family makes our own mobile phones, these are all our unique digital resources. It can be used to make money, and it can also be used for competition.”
"I understand, it's called 'ecology.'"
"Huh? Yes, there is progress!"
"It's like I'm ignorant and sitting in an office all day long."
The two chatted and left the theater.
As we were about to part, Old Shang suddenly said: "Our series of actions have offended many people. After the new year, a national meeting will be held in mid-March. I'm afraid someone will take the opportunity to propose it. I'm afraid it will be bad for you."
"Mid-March?"
"Ah."
"I didn't participate in the past because I couldn't beat them. I wanted to sit on the bottom. This year is different. I want to sit on the top..."
"Listen to uncle, don't go, you can't sit on it."
"Are they all older than me?"
"You're at best a Jack of Hearts."
"..."
Xu Fei was silent for a moment, took out his mobile phone, and contacted Xiao Bu directly.
As the actual beneficiary of Carlyle's investment, Xiaobu is also the biggest beneficiary (votes) of a series of events, and even the person behind Old Walker. The relationship between the two parties must be quite close.
In other words, if Xiaobu is overthrown by the democrats, there is a nine out of ten chance that Texas will ally with the North of Mexico, use military force to kill the democratic factions, and get the support of JP Morgan.
Without it, Foreman's thinking has corrupted the whole world, and with the invasion of microorganisms, Xiao Bu now also advocates 'the overall situation is the most important thing'.
Therefore, the almost crazy 'Libya disarmament' plan will be formulated.
"Mr. Manager, can you help me?"
"Mr. Xu, please speak."
"Your side and Dongfang have just reached a 'Most Favored Nation Treatment - Fourth Round' agreement. Although the relevant details are still being discussed, I think it seems unfair to always sign agreements in Dongfang."
"what do you mean?"
"This time, the agreement will be signed in New York or Washington DC."
"no problem."
"But you want to invite the deputy director of my family to go over."
"???"
"no?"
"can."
"That's good, trouble."
Xu Fei hung up the phone, thought about it, and contacted the secretary again.
The chief secretary, the fourth secretary, and Lan Feng were still discussing the issue of the X municipality with Mr. Zhu.
"You drag the old man until May and then let him return to the capital."
"It's a bit difficult." The secretary hesitated.
"Then create some accidents and get rid of the disobedient ones."
"Is the influence bad?"
"What time is it, we must put the overall situation first!"
"..."
Seeing that the secretary was silent, Xu Fei hung up the phone and contacted Germany, Germany, Balkans, Italy, Poland (pseudo), and even Wadao and Nanbangzi.
Let the other party grandly and solemnly invite board members to visit.
the end.
Xu Fei opened the official system, counted people who were better than him, saw the second general Guo Xu, and asked Lei Meng to invite him to leave during the meeting.
"So, there are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are called kings... Ah bah, I'm not a monkey."
Director Shang was stunned, "What are you doing?"
"Governing a big country is like cooking a small fish. The country looks big, but in fact it is no different from a village. If the village has a distinguished guest, I will definitely not have the opportunity to show up, but if Xu Sheng and Lao Xu are taken away, I can use it." Senior's identity came forward."
"So, Xu Sheng was fooled by you?"
"Xu Sheng died a long time ago."
"Ok?"
"Before the Spring Festival in 99, he was driving a truck full of rice, cooking oil, and the money he had saved for a year. On the way back, he was robbed. The car was dismantled into parts by the locals, and he was buried in the In the wilderness... Those people worried that I would retaliate against the local area, withdraw capital, and make things worse, so they suppressed the news. If the supply and marketing cooperative system is not getting more and more perfect, maybe I will not know it until a few years later."
"Condolences."
"It is said that good people don't live long, and evils last for thousands of years. Why did this guy leave so early?"
"Maybe...he's a nice guy."
"But I hope he's the bad guy."
Xu Fei looked at the mechanical vicious dog.
How did Gou Sheng get the retired army dog?
When he arrived in the Himalayas, he found out that it was Lao Zhao, Zhao Weiguo, who got it and sent it during the inspection of the armed forces.
That is to say, being kicked out by the dog was actually Zhao Weiguo's idea, in order to fulfill the old Xu's confession of 'making my son alive and kicking'.
Why did Gou Sheng burn the weeds on the embankment so that he could not raise sheep?
In recent years, there have been locust plagues in nearby areas. Burning the embankment can prevent locust eggs from hatching and endangering the crops in Xujia Village.
Of course, Xu Fei didn't want to set things right for Xu Sheng, and he was still very dissatisfied with the five-member-six village chief in his heart.
Seeing that Old Shang was about to finish smoking a pack of cigarettes, he sighed leisurely, waved goodbye, and walked towards Xujia Village.
the next day.
Thirty of the twelfth lunar month.
Xu Fei put the mechanical dog on a wooden cart, carried the 'gold ingots', and walked towards the Xu Family Ancestral Forest.
……
I still swallow comments today, I can only see what I posted.
