As we enter the National Day holiday, Xiaoyao Farm’s vegetable sales are also on track.
People were surprised to discover a little secret, that is, during holidays, the vegetables at Xiaoyao Farm will not increase at any rate, and will remain the same as on weekdays.
This is in sharp contrast to those vegetables, meats, fruits and vegetables that have to increase in price during holidays.
The prices of their local vegetables have increased to almost the same as those from Xiaoyao Farm, which made Xiaoyao Farm's vegetables once again become popular, with two or three consecutive batches sold out within an hour.
Looking at the feedback, Xiao Qi couldn't help but laugh a little.
When he was a child, he didn't understand why everything was so expensive during the New Year and holidays.
If you say that everyone is taking a break but the farmers and traders are not, then it is okay to increase the price a bit.
But the problem is that many things are not just a little more expensive, but are doubled and doubled. Why is this?
You said growing vegetables and selling things is hard work. What in the world is not hard work?
Why can't you be considerate of others and not be so black-hearted?
You farmers and traders think that by making money in this area, you can have a good holiday. Then when you go to buy things, others can use this excuse to increase the price? Or even increase it more? Use it.
More reasons?
If everyone keeps raising prices, what's the point besides making everyone complain and be unhappy?
Of course, this kind of price increase during holidays is not too much. After all, after the holidays, prices will basically return to normal.
But there is one kind of behavior that is very hateful.
That is to speculate on various daily necessities, directly raising the price several times, ten times or even dozens of times, thereby making dirty money.
The most famous among them is those who hype daily foods such as ginger garlic bean candy, which is even more unscrupulous.
Originally, this situation only reached its peak around 2010. But when Xiao Qi was watching the news, he discovered that during the National Day, the price of garlic increased by one per day. It more than tripled, which was really shocking.
This is the so-called garlic you are ruthless. Now it is not even the most powerful. From the lowest price in 2009 to the highest price in 2010, the price of garlic has skyrocketed more than 100 times. This is the rhythm of garlic you are ruthless.
It's just that garlic is not the main ingredient, just a little is added to dishes, and many people don't even add garlic, so the state's monitoring of this aspect is not strict.
Those who are hyping just take advantage of this loophole, so they are hyping up foods that are daily foods but do not affect three meals a day, such as ginger garlic bean candy.
If they dare to put their hands on products like rice and wheat, then they can wait to be caught and have their goods confiscated.
But the country hasn't reacted yet, which doesn't mean Xiao Qi hasn't reacted.
Xiao Qi has always hated this kind of hoarding and speculation.
This is true in food, and it is the same in real estate. Even the hype on Chinese medicinal materials and tea is actually the same trick.
Do farmers who grow them benefit from doing this?
Definitely a little bit, but definitely not much
More profits are made by the speculating businessmen in the middle. This group of people who are not engaged in production at all and do not circulate in the world only know how to make money by hoarding and speculation. Naturally, they should be given a serious education.
For this reason, Xiao Qi directly called back Yang Hua, Guan Shantang and Hou Mutai from the UK.
Because the UK took the lead in launching a strategy to revitalize the real estate industry, the situation in the UK is now very good.
As safe-haven funds continue to pour into the UK, London's high-end real estate and mid- to low-end real estate have entered a skyrocketing rhythm.
In just one month, the price increases in the most prosperous areas of London have generally exceeded RMB 20. If prices continue to increase at this rate, it would not be surprising at all to see prices rise to RMB 50 by the end of the year.
There are already real estate businessmen and intermediary companies who have come to inquire about the houses and land of Hengxin Investment Company, but Liu Datou has no intention of selling.
On the contrary, he is already thinking about whether he should build his own house and sell it if the price increase trend continues. This seems to be much more cost-effective than buying and selling land separately.
During this happy wait, Yang Hua and the other three were called back by Xiao Qi. They thought it was something big, but when they heard the task assigned by Xiao Qi, they were speechless.
"Qi Shao, your...this has nothing to do with what we are good at, right?" Yang Hua smiled bitterly, "We have never been exposed to this industry before."
"As the saying goes, all laws come from the same source. How you speculate on real estate is how they speculate on garlic." Xiao Qi said, "How you deal with your opponents is how you deal with this group of people."
"But……"
Guan Shantang hesitated and said: "You have more than 500 billion US dollars in assets, how can you do such a small thing? This has nothing to do with you, right?"
As soon as Yang Hua heard this, he knew something was going to happen, but it was too late to stop him.
Sure enough, Xiao Qi frowned: "Lao Guan, in your heart, can the life and death of ordinary people be irrelevant? What is not a big deal in life? I only know how to make money, not
If you know the suffering of the people, what future will you have in this life?"
Guan Shantang was so scolded that he was sweating profusely and did not dare to speak anymore.
The smooth sailing in England during this period made him completely forget that his fate was completely in Xiao Qi's hands and he could not struggle at all.
Hou Mutai chuckled secretly from the side. This idiot knew that Qi Shao deliberately called a few of them back, so he must be doing things, but he still looked reluctant. Do you really think he is very capable? Doesn't everything in the UK depend on it?
With so little ability, connections, and money, you're so messed up that you really think you're a nobody?
Although the three of them are all members of the Wenzhou Real Estate Speculation Group and are now cooperating with each other, Guan Shantang is Yang Hua's loyal supporter, while Hou Mutai is from his own faction, and usually looks down on the weak Guan Shantang the most.
While thinking about it, Hou Mutai said with a smile: "I generally have a countermeasure. Now let me talk about it. Please correct me, Mr. Qi."
"Say it." Xiao Qi nodded.
"Actually, speculation is just that. You directly use money to stock up on goods, then create an atmosphere of tension and shortage in the market, then find shills to inflate prices, and finally slowly ship goods, leaving the risk to those behind.
"People." Hou Mutai said sternly, "What we have to do now is to try our best to bring in a batch of goods and put them on the market. As long as there is a market situation where there is no shortage of goods, then they will not be able to raise the price.
, and finally died in their hands, which was a big loss to them."
Xiao Qi laughed, "That's the truth, but most of the goods have been bought by speculators. How do you get the goods? If there is less, it will be useless."
"Most of the goods are actually not in their hands, just like our real estate speculation. Most of the goods are in the hands of small and medium-sized investors, and their ability to bear is the weakest. As long as they waver, someone will start selling goods.
Then it will cause an avalanche reaction." Hou Mutai said: "So we only need to focus on the two markets of the capital and the east, and once we get there, they will basically be unable to stabilize."
After a pause, he added, "As for talking about the goods, that's very simple. Just buy it at a high price. Anyway, Qi Shao, you are not doing it to make money, we are just trying to make them lose all their family property. So I suggest not to buy it in the most popular Luzhou store."
Buy from Dongfang. With so many garlic bases across the country, as long as we can get enough for the capital and Dongfang to eat for a month, then we can ship them in large quantities."
Hou Mutai's move can be described as vicious, and he just hurts people with his own heart.
Xiao Qi bought garlic at a high price and sold it to the capital and Dongfang, the two largest cities in China. Suppressing the rising garlic prices there would destabilize the merchants who were hoarding goods. Once they were unable to stabilize,
Then a large amount of supply will come out, and a few hundred super speculators will no longer have the ability to influence the market.
Hyping something can only occupy a certain trend.
Once the trend is on your side, you win. If the trend is not on your side, you lose. This is the so-called "general trend".
But this seems to be effective very quickly, and it can suppress garlic prices early to avoid greater increases in the future.
"This rise in garlic prices will not drop to normal levels so quickly. If we want to be careful, we must prevent another rebound next year." Xiao Qi said thoughtfully.
"That's easy. Once they sell the goods, we can just pick up a few more. This can not only stabilize the price of garlic, but also save it for next year." Hou Mutai said, "I know a little about garlic. It can be stored in a cold storage.
For about a year, people usually pull out a little bit every month and sell it until the next season’s garlic comes out.”
"I can't tell, but you know quite a lot." Xiao Qi said with a smile.
"I have actually studied the hype of garlic before, so I know a little bit about it," Hou Mutai said. "I also know that there are several production and planting bases around Chengdu, with an approximate output of 300,000 tons. If we can put this
Once you get the batch of garlic, it will basically account for one-third of the garlic production, enough to flatten the garlic market in the capital and the East."
"The annual garlic output is 4 million tons?" Xiao Qi asked.
"I remember that during the years of my research, it was almost the same number. Decreasing or increasing it wouldn't make much difference," Hou Mutai said.
Seeing that Hou Mutai was also well prepared, Xiao Qi said directly: "You are fully responsible and let Lao Yang and Lao Guan cooperate with you. Are you sure of success in three months?"
"Three months? I'll do it for you in one month," Hou Mutai said with a smile, "We are still rushing back to the UK to make a fortune. These bastards who are speculating on food, let them go bankrupt as soon as possible, so that we can pay our dues as soon as possible."
After previous failures and training in the United States and the United Kingdom, he has changed greatly compared to before.
My spirit has become higher, and my courage has also increased. To be continued
