Chapter 741 The Phantom Behind the Grain
[Thanks to the generous reward of "Canghai Wuliang", thank you for your support!]
Zhen Jiang was pulled out of the quilt by Li Xueyin. As for Fang Zhi, he had already done what he should do and went to practice martial arts in the small yard behind. It was indeed strange that Fang Zhi didn't have to sleep, but those who were familiar with it were actually used to it.
Fang Zhi cooked tea, handed a cup of awakening tea to the sleepy cute Zhen Jiang, and a cup of dusty tea to Li Xueyin who arrived overnight, looking at two women with different charms with a smile.
"Zhi, why are you asking me to come here for so hurry?" Li Xueyin took a sip of fragrant tea and asked with a comfortable sigh.
"It's a bit urgent. Pan'er told me today that the food prices have been rising in the past two years and have never fallen. Have you noticed this?"
Li Xueyin raised her eyebrows slightly proudly: "I noticed that, but this matter is good for us, and to some extent, we have even contributed to the flames!"
Zhen Jiang glanced at Fang Zhi with some shame, and his face turned red and he lowered his head secretly. Li Xueyin keenly grabbed Zhen Jiang's strange behavior, and then he couldn't help but start to mutter in his heart, could this matter really be done wrong?
Fang Zhi grinned, with a relaxed expression on his face: "So Xueyin, have you ever been curious about who was pushing this matter behind the scenes? How did they do this?"
"Who is pushing behind the scenes? All the big grain merchants in the world are pushing. When you see profitable, you will naturally enjoy it. The so-called "people are getting high in firewood, so that's not the matter..."
As he was talking, Li Xueyin suddenly realized that what she thought she took for granted now seems something is wrong? What is unreasonable?
Seeing Li Xueyin suddenly stopped talking, her brows frowned slightly, Fang Zhi raised his lips and reminded: "But, those who bought the food in the end were all the princes. Could it be that they were willing to be exploited?"
"This... maybe they have no choice... it's not right. The people who buy grain include Dong Zhuo, Cao Cao, Liu Bei, Yuan Shu, and Ding Yuan. These people combined are enough to turn the big men into a big man. How could they be willing to be suppressed by grain merchants? However, the grain merchants are also very powerful, at least, they have sufficient funds, so they can win this grain price war!"
Li Xueyin retorted a little far-fetchedly.
"Sister Xueyin, the question is where the money and grain come from? We have food reserves because we have grain reserves. What about grain merchants? Are they also growing grain on a large scale? If so, the grain prices should fall."
Li Xueyin frowned tightly. At this time, she finally grasped a vague main line from Zhen Jiang's words, money? That's right, the key is this money!
From a financial perspective, the premise of the continuous rise in food should be the shortage of food supply, but judging from the current cultivation situation of the entire Han Dynasty, the supply of food should be sufficient, especially this year, with the end of the war since the beginning of spring, the grain market should lower prices after the summer harvest, but now it does not decrease but increases, which is really strange.
Then go back to money. If the market supply is sufficient, there is only one way to increase the price, which is to increase the amount of money circulation. Then the price increase of grain is only the first step. When this money is invested into the grain market, it will soon have a diffusion effect, which will eventually lead to the rise of the entire price system.
Li Xueyin looked back at the price system in the past two years and it was indeed rising! How could this situation feel like déjà vu? Li Xueyin thought about it with a slash and then suddenly understood it! It seemed that the same thing was happening in the real world!!
"Zhi, sister, you wait for me for a while, I'll go down!"
Li Xueyin finished speaking with a serious expression. Without waiting for Fang Zhi and his wife to say two replies, the light on her body flashed and disappeared in front of them. Fang Zhi shrugged and poured a cup of new tea for Zhen Jiang.
"Are you sleepy?"
"Yeah, I'm not sleepy at all. I rarely see Sister Xueyin so serious. This matter is probably a big deal. Husband, will this have any impact on us?"
"There must be an impact, because this matter affects the entire man, how can we keep it alone? The key is that we must discover this matter early and then find the root of the matter. We can find a way to deal with it and guide the matter to the advantage of us. This may be a bloodless battle. Pan'er, this time it depends on your ability and Xue Yin!"
Fang Zhi’s expectations and encouragement made Zhen Jiang feel excited. He believed and looked forward to this by his husband. Zhen Jiang felt very happy, really happy, not only as a wife, but also as a partner who is trusted and relied on!
"Well! Don't worry, husband, I will definitely win a beautiful victory!"
"Haha, OK!"
....................................................................................
"Grandpa, this is the thing. You see, is it exactly the same as the reality? Have those foreign capitals begun to penetrate into the game? But, they want to pay attention to this game!?"
Li Xueyin sat opposite Lin Wenzhi. Lin Wenzhi was standing behind the desk slowly writing. He did not rush to answer his granddaughter's question, but waited until all the lines of words were finished, and then put down the brush. He appreciated it with satisfaction for a while, feeling that his meaning was more harmonious.
Then he raised his head and pointed to the tea wielding side with a smile: "Sit down and say, did you discover this?"
"No, it was discovered by Zhi."
"Zhi? That boy! Haha, the eyes are so great!"
Lin Wenzhi did it, watched Li Xueyin pour tea for himself, picked it up and took a sip, and breathed out, "This matter has only been noticed recently. There are indeed a lot of mysterious capitals that have successively acquired some game studios and advertising companies, but their methods are very hidden. They acquire some small studios, and then spend money on it, quickly expanding it, and constantly absorbing it. When it is discovered, it is already a bit late!"
Li Xueyin snorted hatefully, and was very angry at these disguised traitors: "These people are really profitable!"
"Haha, it's normal for human nature! At present, how many people can keep their bottom line, especially in such a society where the moral system is almost collapsed."
Li Xueyin shook her head helplessly: "So, why do these foreign capitals value this game? Don't they know that the game's currency exchange system has been completely handed over to the intelligent brain to control? It is almost impossible to make a fortune from a big fortune. What do they want?"
"Well, that's the key. I heard that a game is being built abroad that is the same as this hero legend. It should be a large online game based on traditional Western adventure strategy games and set invincible heroes, or is it for competitive purposes that wants to attack our country's games and steal a large number of players?"
Lin Wenzhi's idea was just speculation. Although he had more information channels, he was far from able to know state secrets.
Therefore, he didn't know that foreign capital was not just about destroying a game, because this game was not just a game, but a growing world. As for why they chose to crack down and destroy rather than cooperate and win-win, it was obviously because of ideological issues. One was a capitalist's paradise and the other was a country for ordinary people. This was simply an irreconcilable contradiction.
Li Xueyin nodded silently. In fact, why the purpose is no longer important? The key is that the purpose of these foreign capitals is to destroy this game. As long as Li Xueyin understands this, it is enough.
"I understand. I'll go online and tell Zhi now that I must not let them succeed!"
Lin Wenzhi looked up and called Li Xueyin: "Wait, what are you going to do?"
Li Xueyin was stunned: "I don't know, Zhi will have a solution. Besides, Tian Feng and Xu Shu will always think of a solution."
"Haha, well, the game is solved, but you can release the news about this matter. The patriotic people must be the majority. Let them make a fuss first, and the matter will become clear. The enemy under the sun is not difficult to deal with!"
Lin Wenzhi stroked his beard and smiled and made an idea. In fact, Lin Wenzhi knew that the country might also take action. This matter is not only a matter of the indigenous people, but also concerns the interests of the country.
Of course, if Lin Wenzhi knew that this matter was not only about national interests, but also affected the future of the entire Chinese nation, he would definitely not worry about anything. The country would definitely not let such an important matter go.
....................................................................
"Xueyin, don't make seals on food. He hits his, you can hit yours."
"What's the meaning?"
"Sister Xueyin, husband said that we should set up another battlefield and hit their weaknesses." Zhen Jiang said with his eyes flashing.
"Waste? Capital inflow...I understand, increase the exchange price of gold and silver, right!"
"Um!"
Zhen Jiang nodded vigorously. Maybe she was an ancient man and didn't understand what exchange is, nor did she understand what currency war was. However, there was really no secret that happened. Playing around was just a trick that confuses the public. Just like Western philosophy, it was all the things that our ancestors played with. Explain it in popular language and it was considered to be their own discovery. In the end, it was bloody. It was not necessary to come back honestly to study Chinese philosophy so that China could save the world!
Zhen Jiang’s idea is very simple. If you manipulate food and even if the props of the entire price system are money, then I will find a way to increase the consumption of your money and greatly increase your operating costs. This is to cut off the fire from the bottom of the pot. If Li Xueyin exchanges a large amount of currency outward, it will greatly increase the exchange rate. What can be done by foreign capital per yuan may require 100 yuan. On the one hand, it consumes a lot of opponents’ monetary resources, and on the other hand, I also get the benefits of exchange differences, and these benefits will be cheaper for professional players and Li Xueyin who work hard to make money in the game.
This is Zhen Jiang’s plan to remove the firewood from the bottom of the pot.
