According to the plan of the special zone, after the completion of the main project of the urban unit, it can already provide sufficient living conditions.

The basic living facilities in the room are already available, but they belong to personal daily necessities, and the Special Economic Zone will not consider them.

The purchase of these items can be purchased through the supermarket channel or obtained from the Special Zone Rental Materials Management Center through leasing.

There is no doubt about the supply capacity of the "state-run" supermarkets in the Special Administrative Region, as long as you can buy legal supplies on the domestic market, they can provide them.

It's just that those supermarkets don't have things in stock, and they need to be ordered online, and their express delivery time is a bit long, basically reaching more than a week.

But everyone can understand that, after all, there are no direct airplane routes here, and no one can move supplies by freighter faster.

Although the policy of the special zone does not restrict self-employment, the rent of the street façade is not high, and there is no turnover tax even on the circulation of goods within the special zone.

But after the calculation, you will find out that unless the product you can provide is unique in the world, and you yourself are the producer of such a product.

Otherwise, doing business in Tuvalu is simply not profitable.

Because no matter how much they try to reduce transportation and other administrative costs, after paying the 20 percent tariff, the ordinary goods are sold at no advantage compared with the supermarkets in the Special Zone.

Some goods are sold at a price that is not even enough to be shipped here.

The "welfare" of the SAR is already reflected in all aspects of daily life.

The cafeteria is convenient and hygienic, and the price of the food on this island far from the mainland is unimaginably cheap.

And compared to freshwater, which is more expensive than fuel on other islands with similar conditions, this price is almost a free gift.

In the absence of a river, there is no limit to the supply of fresh water to individuals, which is unthinkable on other islands.

And the free air conditioning supply that covers almost the entire enclosed building space has made the entire urban unit a livable place like spring all year round.

The temperature in Tuvalu is around 29 degrees Celsius all year round, with little temperature difference throughout the year, making it a typical tropical maritime climate.

Such a temperature is only a few degrees higher than the most suitable temperature for the human body, and does not make people feel the obvious heat unbearable.

It's just that these degrees are a bit unsatisfactory for the living comfort of urban residents.

I thought that under the condition of ensuring the supply of electricity, the air conditioning here would be welcomed and usher in a wave of business opportunities.

The total demand for tens of thousands of sets is a big cake no matter how you look at it.

However, the Special Economic Zone is willing to install water-cooled air conditioning in every room of every building.

Even if you provide air conditioning equipment, what does it mean that you let all residents use these water-cooled air conditioners for free?

There is no other plausible explanation for these practices but to classify them as a "welfare" for the Tuvalu Special Districts.

Therefore, in the eyes of these businessmen, the so-called "state-run" supermarket in the Special District of Tuvalu should also be a disguised benefit.

Because they found that the price of all the goods in the supermarket is hardly affected by short-term price fluctuations in the international market.

For any free market, as long as there is enough capital, there is room for manipulation.

The less developed the traffic of the market, the more space can be used for maneuvering.

For example, a team with a lot of money wants to monopolize the supply of white sugar in a certain area.

He can buy out all the sugar stocks in all stores in this area in a short period of time, forming a market illusion of sugar shortage.

If you are ruthless, you can make up some lies about the reduction of sugar production, or simply say that a new industry needs to consume a lot of sugar.

No matter how credible these rumors are, as long as they can be believed by 10% of the people in this area, it is enough to set off a rush to buy white sugar in this area.

The fact that there is a shortage of sugar in the market in a short period of time will further affect other people, and this irrational rush to buy will become more and more intense.

As long as there is a rush to buy, the increase in the selling price of white sugar is a matter of course.

After the market sales price rises, the behind-the-scenes manipulators who have accumulated a large supply of white sugar can ship a large number of high-level goods.

Before everyone reacted, they sold out the goods they had accumulated and made a lot of money before moving on to the next place.

Those wholesalers who think they have found a business opportunity and have transferred supplies from other places will find out that the sugar rush here has ended.

All the families who participated in the rush purchase at least stockpiled enough sugar for their families to eat for more than a year.

Worst of all are the food workshops that produce desserts, without a symmetrical source of information and a fixed source of supply, stockpiling tons of sugar in response to seemingly uncontrollable price increases.

As a direct consequence of this, sugar sales in this region have almost stopped within a year.

Because everyone has already bought too much at home, the white sugar you shipped can't be sold at a loss, so it's better to ship it back.

If you look back at history, how many times has this happened in the last two or three decades.

Oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, rice, noodles, tobacco, sugar, wine, ginger, garlic, and beans take turns to play, which makes people dazzled.

However, these are all petty fights, ordinary people can bear it, and they can't affect the overall situation, and time will soon erase their memories.

But in fields such as education, medicine, and housing, an area only needs to come once, which is enough to make the economy here not improve for more than ten years.

Such things, those so-called "successful people" have been played with ease.

I thought that this Tuvalu District was another place for them to make waves.

But after they actually came, they found that everything here seemed to be different from the world they were familiar with.

For a place that you are not familiar with, temptation is a simple and effective way.

The first option they chose was to manipulate the price of rice in the supermarket.

Because they found that the supermarket in Tuvalu District Rimi does not have a large amount of stock, and with a small amount of capital intervention, it should be possible to easily change the supply and demand relationship.

This Tuvalu District is a new city after all, and it has no experience in dealing with this kind of thing.

According to their previous experience, as long as the supply of materials on the market is rapidly reduced by 30/100 in a short period of time, a rush to buy will form in this area.

But what they didn't expect was that nearly half of the supermarkets had rice cabinets in them that were about to be emptied, and few people had found anything abnormal.

Isn't this scientific?
