Chapter 0134 - Who Made You Buy So Much Wheat?
Chen Cheng has been immersed in learning the knowledge of animal husbandry and cultivation for the past few days, and he has not bothered about the wheat in Hanzhong Province at all.
Until Han Qi called him.
"Chen Cheng, the wheat is almost finished!" Han Qi shouted happily as soon as he opened his mouth.
"How's it going?" Chen Cheng asked.
"The grouting effect is good, and the grout is generally full. Judging from the cities and counties I have visited in the past few days, the increase in wheat output this year is stable. There was indescribable joy in Han Qi's tone.
Chen Cheng snorted with a surging "hmm".
"Why do you feel like you're not happy at all?" Han Qi asked.
Chen Cheng said: "I already knew the result, so naturally there won't be too much excitement." ”
Han Qi pursed his mouth.
"How's the situation at the Grain Merchants Association?" Chen Cheng asked.
Han Qi said: "They suddenly suspended wheat purchases in the past two days, but they did not sell wheat. ”
Chen Cheng thought for a while and said, "Can you help me make an appointment with Dong Chou?" Now is the most critical juncture, and I want to talk to him about what to do next. ”
Han Qi said: "That's what I meant when I called you." Old... Lao Zhou, he asked me to call you and invite you to the magic capital. ”
"Good. I'll be there tomorrow. ”
Hanging up the phone, Chen Cheng clenched his fist slightly.
Whether or not the grain merchants association can be seriously damaged this time depends on the last step.
...
An emergency meeting convened by Meng Di was held in a small hotel.
The people who attended the meeting were the same as last time, but no one discussed it before the meeting this time, and they all drooped their heads, looking like they were dead parents.
Among them, the one with the lowest drooping head is Huang Yong.
He had a question swirling in his mind right now.
"What did I think? Why do you want to engage in grain trading in a ghostly way? ”
Waiting for everyone to sit down, Meng Di, who had been sitting in the first place, spoke.
"Ladies and gentlemen, now that various observations have come out, it is confirmed that the wheat yield in Hanzhong Province will not be reduced this season." Meng Di said without emotion.
The thirty or so people in the audience, no one discussed, and they all looked straight at him.
This conclusion, which everyone knows, has long since lost its relevance to them for discussion.
Meng Di looked around, and then asked: "Now count the wheat reserves in your hands and report the number according to your respective positions." ”
“0.9。”
“1.1。”
“1.”
“1.5.”
“1.3”
...
Without waiting for the small grain merchants to finish their counts, Meng Di slapped the table again.
"Who made you out of position?!" He said angrily.
"The number of positions per company is the upper limit, which is said from the day you joined the association. Why do you want to increase your positions without permission?! ”
Huang Yong lowered his head and did not speak, and the subsidiaries under their Kewei Group also bought more than 3 million wheat, totaling more than 2,200 tons.
"Mr. Meng, today's topic is to discuss how to reduce losses, and it was also your decision to buy wheat at that time. Why did we start thinking about our mistakes at this point? A bold little grain merchant spoke.
Meng Di sneered and said, "So you are here to ask the master for sin?" ”
"Then we don't dare. It's just that now that the situation has happened, we can't listen to the association's opinion so that we can move on to the next step as soon as possible? ”
Meng Di sighed and stopped thinking about the position.
More than 30 small grain merchants, each with 6,000 tons, a total of more than 200,000 tons of wheat fell into their hands.
The total price of these wheats is more than 300 million yuan, accounting for nearly one-third of the total wheat output value of Hanzhong Province this season.
According to the law of the grain price market, they often only need one-tenth of the reserves, coupled with the nervous propaganda of abnormal channels, to leverage changes in market prices.
And this time they were three times as much.
But the excess must now be sold.
That's going to be hard.
Although the price of wheat is at a high level, as soon as the wheat in Hanzhong Province enters the harvest period, the market price will fall immediately.
If they want to sell the wheat in their hands at a low price, the price will definitely not reach the price they bought before.
One in and one out, the loss is tens of millions.
"Otherwise, we'll store all the wheat and wait for next year's market. Perhaps the spring wheat crop has been reduced, and we still have room to maneuver. A small grain merchant suggested.
Meng Di shook his head.
Grain storage is not an easy task, especially when storing grain in large quantities is costly.
If the cost of storing grain is amortized, I am afraid that it will increase their losses.
Moreover, the price of old grain is not as high as that of new grain, and the wheat in their hands is already considered old grain from last season. If it is not stored properly, it will become aged grain.
According to the length of storage period, edible grains are generally divided into three types: new grains, old grains and aged grains. The rice of that year was a new grain; The first storage period of more than one year is old grain; Grains that deteriorate after storage are called aged grains.
Aged grains are different from what people usually call "secondary rice" and "alternate year grains", which are stale grains and can be eaten normally.
The definition of aged grain is spoilage. The most obvious withdrawal is that the grain contains aflatoxins after spoilage, which needs to be strictly tested and identified before it can be determined to be aged grain.
Aged grain is a technical concept used to judge whether grain can continue to be stored, therefore, in this sense, aged grain is not equal to toxic and harmful grain.
Due to the fact that the aged grain Aspergillus flavus exceeds the standard and can no longer be used as a ration, the state stipulates that the aged grain can only be sold to specific feed processing and brewing enterprises through auction. Aged grains need to be strictly tested and identified before they can be determined as aged grains.
Although the old grain can be eaten normally, and the grain stored by the grain storage group is generally old grain, this does not affect the value of the grain.
But the market price is different.
The new grain is much better than the old grain in terms of color, taste and aroma, so consumers are more willing to buy the new grain to eat. Because the price of new grain is often more expensive than old grain, and it is also more popular.
The facts are here, and Meng Di really doesn't know how to deal with it.
Until now, he can only continue to focus on Huanong Group.
"How much wheat did Huanong Group buy in total?" Mendi asked.
The secretary next to him said: "A total of more than 7,000 tons of wheat were bought, and the market price was close to 10 million yuan. ”
"It's not much, but it's the real money of Huanong Group!" Huang Yong said with emotion on the side.
Unlike a sales company, sales are mainly about establishing channels and sufficient capital to adjust the market. To do business is to produce products and sell products. The cash flow of the two varies greatly.
According to his own judgment, Huang Yong believes that the 10 million will be most of the current liquidity of Huanong Group.
"Now they're smashing wheat in their hands, too." Huang Yong said to Meng Di.
"So you mean to see how they do it?" Mendi asked.
Huang Yong nodded and said: "If we lose 1100 million this year, but we collapse Huanong Group, do you think ABM's general manager of the Oriental Region will be happy or angry?" ”
