Chapter 377
After the report of "SARS", it disappeared like a wave in the sea of media information, and throughout November, it was difficult to see SARS-related news on TV or on the Internet.
In Xiangjiang, which is adjacent to GD Province, where SARS broke out, because of the large flow of people between the two places, suspected SARS cases have also begun to appear in the Xiangjiang area, and this case is still increasing. There is no media control in Xiangjiang, and GD people who can watch Xiangjiang Radio can obtain "rumors" from Xiangjiang that have been covered up by the local government without any pressure. Everyone was not convinced, but when the signal of Xiangjiang TV was cut off, not only did it fail to cover up what the official wanted to cover up, but it made some half-believing people begin to believe that there is indeed a terrible infectious disease called "SARS" in the GD area of China!
As the number of cases increased, all kinds of rumors began to fly all over the sky. Naturally, the official media did not see reports about SARS, but on the Internet, where the government is not so tightly controlled, all kinds of gossip are full of sweat and chaos.
But the Internet is not a pure land. Chinese officials, who have always been slow to respond, finally extended their control tentacles to the Internet at the end of December, and many forums discussing the "SARS" epidemic were closed down, and countless netizens were banned.
In China, the time-tested common people have understood a truth, that is, everything that the official vigorously denies usually exists; Those who try their best to refute the rumors by the authorities are always slapped in the face in the end. The blocking of "foreign" news and the control of domestic networks directly affirm the facts that the authorities want to cover up, and also contribute to the spread of all kinds of more unreliable rumors, such as smoked white vinegar and eating banlan root can prevent and treat "SARS".
After more than half a month of hesitation, or "torment of conscience", Wang Bo finally made up his mind at the beginning of December and decided to make a "national disaster wealth", collect a wave of IQ tax, and earn a sum of money. Now, although he is a billionaire in the legend of the outside world, he does not have much liquidity in his hands. Most of his property was either bought into shares, bought stocks, or invested in real estate. Whether it is stocks or real estate, it is difficult to see how much effect there is in three or five years. If possible, Wang Bo even wants to cover these stocks and real estate for more than ten years, and then slowly realize them.
The few companies he has on hand now, except for the "Great-sister-in-law Rice Noodles", which is a cash cow, the others, whether it is the "starting point network" or the "blog network", are still in the stage of burning money beyond their means, and he needs to pay money from other companies from time to time to help and turnover.
The entertainment company can be regarded as a cash cow, but since the company's pillar Fang You went to the United States to study abroad, there were soon no commercial performances, and there were fewer advertisements, so the income was naturally less. At present, his entertainment company relies solely on Ma Liting and Li Junhua's "Phoenix Legend" to go out and go, perform everywhere, and make some extra money to maintain the company's operation.
Therefore, the current Wang Bo is actually very short of money. This was the biggest reason why he made up his mind to collect an "IQ tax".
Once he made up his mind, Wang Bo, who was resolute and resolute, immediately began to act.
He first called his cousin Luo Yonghao and his father Luo Jiagui from his hometown.
Luo Yonghao has not graduated from junior high school and has been helping him guard the Internet café, a year or two ago has become the manager of the "Time and Space Tribe" Internet café chain, with a salary of thousands a month, surrounded by a group of Fei brothers and Fei sisters who cheat on food and drink, and live a chic and comfortable life.
Luo Yonghao and his father stayed in Shuangqing for two days, and were entertained by Wang Bo for two days, and the two masters took several bank cards and two fake identities with a total of 20 million RMB he gave him. The task of the two masters is to rent a warehouse near the provincial capital of GD Province, and then fill the warehouse with white vinegar and banlan root within a month.
Use 20 million to buy white vinegar and banlan root from the rotten street? This is a very strange and stupid decision in the eyes of ordinary people, and the two masters naturally want to ask why. Wang Bo didn't deceive the two either, saying that he had inside information that these two things might rise in the next six months, so he hoarded some in advance to see if he could make a difference. However, he doesn't know if the news is reliable, so it's a gamble.
A bet of 20 million, Wang Bo directly scared his cousin and aunt, who had never seen 2 million. If it is an outsider, they will definitely gloat and scold others with a "melon seed baby", but if it is the grace of knowing their own family, and the family has changed from a local farmer with his back to the loess and facing the sky into a carefree office worker, Wang Bo of the city, the two masters began to persuade Wang Bo to be cautious and not to be deceived.
"Don't worry, rat, uncle. Although this information is not 100 percent accurate, it is still 60 or 70 percent certain. Take 10,000 steps back and say, if this news is really a rumor, then the price will be reduced to the manufacturer or wholesaler. You won't lose it all. Once you make money, I'll give you a big red envelope when the time comes. Wang Bo smiled and comforted his two relatives.
Of course, this kind of "speculative" thing is that the less people you know, the better, and it is better to do it yourself. However, now he is not an ordinary person, and he can't do it himself, so he can only ask his relatives to help.
The two masters persuaded Wang Bo for a while, and finally saw that Wang Bo's attitude was firm and could not be changed, so he had no choice but to accept it, taking the huge amount of money and fake ID cards given by Wang Bo, with a frightened and uneasy heart, he got on the train to Yangcheng south.
After Luo Yonghao and his father Luo Jiagui arrived in Yangcheng, according to Wang Bo's instructions, they first rented three warehouses of about 200 square meters each in some places that provided warehousing and logistics in Yangcheng, for a period of three months. After the warehouse was rented, he asked the two of them to inquire about several pharmaceutical and food factories in Yangcheng to buy white vinegar and banlan root. Now there is no rumor of white vinegar and banlan root for the prevention and treatment of "SARS" on the market, whether it is white vinegar or banlan root, it is an ordinary road goods, and the two of them have given a lot of discounts because of the huge amount of purchases.
In order to diversify the risk and not attract too much attention, Wang Bo divided his "speculation" of 20 million into two parts, one for hoarding white vinegar and the other for hoarding banlangen. Then whether it is white vinegar or banlan root, they are purchased separately from several manufacturers, and one buys one or two million, so that it will not look too conspicuous.
Finally, when asking the manufacturer to deliver the goods, the delivery address to the manufacturer is also different. Three warehouses are scattered in several large storage areas in Yangcheng, each warehouse is two hundred square meters, six or seven million goods, in the economically developed, large storage area everywhere in Yangcheng, it is definitely a small fight.
Twenty days later, Luo Yonghao and his father Luo Jiagui ended their frantic purchases and returned home from Yangcheng. Wang Bo entertained the two masters for a day with good food, drink and fun, and one of them gave 5,000 yuan for his hard work, and then sent the two back to their hometown. When they gave the money, the two were embarrassed to ask for it, because they always felt that their cousin and nephew were not very reliable in this matter, and they were likely to lose all their money. This time I went to Yangcheng, the two of them visited a large number of white vinegar factories and pharmaceutical factories as buyers, this thing is not expensive at all, the manufacturer does not know how many tons to produce every day, it is completely rotten street, this thing will soar in the future? The two masters said they didn't believe it.
Therefore, Wang Bo gave money to the two, but the two resolutely did not want it. Wang Bo persuaded him twice, and he didn't force the two to stop after seeing whether they were alive or dead, but he just said that he would let the two go back and wait for the news, and they would need to go to Yangcheng again when the goods were shipped in the future, and then they would be rewarded for the two of them.
After Luo Yonghao and his two masters left, looking at the warehouse key and the purchase list on the coffee table, Wang Bo's heart that had been hanging for more than ten or twenty days finally fell. It's not that he's worried about the two masters keeping his money secret, but he still has some confidence in the character of his cousin and uncle. was just worried about the safety of the two, and was targeted by some ill-intentioned people during the procurement process. After all, the two of them have a huge amount of money of 20 million, in case they are accidentally leaked, and the two are outsiders who are not familiar with each other, it is easy for some bad people to get rich and even kill them.
