Chapter 188: A Great Harvest for the Whole Country
Harvest season.
Countless large-scale planting and harvesting machines have been dispatched to gallop in the three-dimensional agricultural area.
Boom boom!
After the harvester hunts, the wheat and rice, which are full of fruit, are peeled off their shells.
Poured into a sack.
The farmer touched the grain of wheat that was about to be several inches larger on his face, and his face was full of smiles.
"This crop is so good!"
The entire Eastern Dragon City was filled with the joy of a bumper harvest.
……
In just a few days, more than 100,000 harvesters supported by the whole dragon country successfully completed all the grain rush work with full horsepower.
May 30th.
The fringe of the Central Dragon City.
This is the largest warehouse in the Dragon Kingdom, where the Tianlong Warehouse is located - more than 130 meters high, like a towering giant standing here.
Its three-dimensional area has reached tens of millions of cubic meters, and its internal volume is comparable to several bird's nests!
At this moment, Qin Ge took the special transparent glass elevator of the Tianlong Warehouse and slowly rose.
At the top of the Tianlong Warehouse, in all directions, countless giant transportation pipes twisted and twisted, as if they were transporting something.
The rustle doesn't stop.
It is the harvest of wheat, corn and other food crops.
They pass through pipes in all directions, and finally come together, and finally flow into this huge Draco warehouse.
"Zhouqu, how many tons have you received?"
On the elevator, Qin Ge was observing the transportation, and the wheat pipe opened his mouth to ask.
"Three million tons."
Behind Yang Qi on the side, a middle-aged man wearing glasses was measuring in real time on a microcomputer.
It is the chief economic adviser of the Ministry of Commerce, Zhou Ronglin.
"There are about 100 million tons of grain flowing in the market now." Zhou Ronglin reported seriously.
"100 million tons!"
Qin Ge silently read this number in his heart, and then nodded slightly.
"That's enough."
"In the name of the special office, the state will send a message to the dragon city, and the state will collect grain, and it will never allow all grain sales and transactions!"
Qin Ge gave an order categorically.
"Okay."
Zhou Ronglin nodded seriously, opened the intranet system, and skillfully drafted the red-headed file command.
My heart is like a stormy wave, tumbling and uncertain.
The chief economist of the Ministry of Commerce, who has been following Qin Ge as an assistant for the past two days, has mixed feelings in his heart.
This economist didn't expect that after the national grain harvest, Qin Ge directly issued an order:
Private buying and selling are allowed!
The state-owned Food Protection Bureau, which instructed it, sent a working group.
into all places.
There is only one purpose:
Survey, evaluate, purchase and guide the sale of local grain!
Zhou Ronglin saw this policy in his eyes, and he was naturally extremely surprised in his heart.
Does Qin Ge even have to accept administrative guidance for market transactions?
In this way, it seems that we have returned to the era of the planned economy of those years.
And today, after Qin Ge finished surveying the granary, he actually let go of free trade again.
At this moment, looking at the 300 million tons of grain reserves displayed on the screen, Zhou Ronglin suddenly realized.
It turned out that the purchase of reserve grain was Qin Ge's purpose!
"The role of the national granary is like the cornerstone on the scale, maintaining the balance on the scale."
Qin Ge seemed to see the surprise of the chief economic expert and said indifferently.
Qin Ge explained leisurely, and immediately turned his head to look at Zhou Ronglin.
"I ask you, what would happen if nearly a billion tons of food were to go to the market?"
"Hmmm......"
Zhou Ronglin was taken aback at first, helped the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and analyzed it seriously.
"At the beginning, it is likely that the benefits will be good, but after that, I am afraid that it will be purchased by large businessmen in large quantities, so that ordinary people will not be able to buy grain; After they monopolized the grain, they maliciously raised the price one after another, so that people had to buy high-priced grain......"
"That's right."
Qin Ge nodded, his gaze extremely clear.
"Free trading and buying and selling is a necessary means for the prosperity of the market economy."
"But the free market has a fatal flaw, and that is mercenary."
"And the state, this powerful hand, must come forward to guarantee the fairness of ordinary people."
Qin Ge said.
With these reserves, the state can regulate and control them at the right time.
Grain prices should be kept within a reasonable range.
In order to crack down on merchants who maliciously resell grain, and even in the event of a natural disaster, grain can be released to ensure the survival of the people of the Dragon Kingdom.
This is the real reason for the country's grain reserves!
Zhou Ronglin suddenly realized at this moment, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
He was still struggling with the planned economy and the market economy, but he didn't expect that Qin Ge's thoughts had already surpassed his own positions.
Really......
Zhou Ronglin remembered that great man.
No matter what, a black cat or a white cat is a good cat if it can catch mice!
In the same way, no matter what means, what can make the people of the Dragon Kingdom live a good life is a good policy!
Zhou Ronglin raised his head and glanced at Qin Ge seriously, only then was he surprised to realize that he was so young...
However, Qin Ge was both in his behavior and his mannerisms.
The aura revealed is undoubtedly the same as that of a great power.
That is enough to carry the fortune of the country.
Maybe some people are born to be the protagonists.
The chief economist of the Dragon Kingdom, who was over half a hundred years old, couldn't help but sigh.
……
May 15th.
On the second day when grain trading was allowed, there were already stores selling grain in the major regions of the Dragon Kingdom.
"Come and see, the wheat that has just come back from the north of Eastern Dragon City, five cents a catty, go home to make steamed buns, and you can show off five in one breath!"
"The corn in the west of Longcheng in the east, seven cents a catty, is not delicious, and it will lose ten!"
"It's a big sale, the fruits, apples, bananas, and watermelons in the south of Longhu Farm are all a pound for a dollar!"
The major grain stores began to compete and shout, attracting countless people to come to buy, and people who came out of the grain stores returned with joy on their faces.
Cheap and high quality!
This is the food of the entire Underground Dragon Kingdom!
……
May 25th.
Free trading has been open for two weeks.
In the major grain stores, people are still in an endless stream, coming to buy all kinds of food.
In Jinan Longcheng, in a small grain store, the store manager Wang Dashan took a long sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead after a busy day.
"It's been another busy day."
Wang Dashan turned his head and smiled at his wife on the side.
"Yes." The wife who was in charge of the hand-down pulled a strand of hair.
These grain stores, which cover an area of less than 20 square meters, are made by their husband and wife.
Farmers, flour mills, feed mills......
As soon as the store opened, many people who needed food came to the door.
Wang Dashan and his wife are busy until midnight every day, and this feeling is both tiring and fulfilling.
Now, in less than two weeks, I have earned nearly 10,000 yuan...
"It's still the country's policy." Wang Dashan couldn't help but sigh.
Previously, when the state purchased grain, the purchase price even reached more than one piece...
Now the two of them have opened a small shop and made more money!
Not only that, but in the past, farmers have always been looked down upon.
Now in this underground dragon city, it has become a very important and respected profession!
"I don't know, what are the good policies in the future..."
"Ding-dong."
Just when the two were chatting, Wang Dashan's mobile phone suddenly came with a prompt tone, opened it and looked at it, was stunned for a moment, and then became ecstatic.
On the text message, a brief line of large words first jumps into view:
Notice from the Special Office: Continue to grow food crops in the next quarter and continue to subsidize.
Grow designated crops!
Give double the subsidy!
"Double-subsidy for designated crops?"
Wang Dashan happily flipped through the pages, but when he saw the crop catalog notified by the state, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded.
