My Siheyuan Shelter

Chapter 577
"It's not necessary. The city does not lack enterprises with state-owned background, but it lacks stable cash flow. You have managed the bakery very well. Lao Luo is a smart person and will not cause trouble for himself."

Minister He reassured.

Speaking of which, the bakery is also one of his political achievements, which has benefited him a lot. From the bottom of his heart, he does not want to see the bakery be forced to restructure.

"Minister He, you are too serious."

Father Xu said politely.

At the same time, he secretly let out a sigh of relief.

"By the way, I heard that your bakery recently placed a big order in the beautiful country?"

As a business leader, it is often necessary to coordinate with relevant parties, coordinate bulk import and export commodities, and guide trade promotion activities.

It is difficult not to attract attention to such a large amount of imports by Coke Bread Factory.

So why did you ask this question.

"It is true that there is such a thing. The total amount is about 55 billion. The imports are all flour. I didn't expect this trivial matter to reach your ears."

"Hehe, [-] tons of flour, this is not a small matter. Besides, because of your large order, the price of international flour has directly doubled."

Dad Xu immediately argued: "Minister He, the rise in international food prices is mainly due to the tense situation in Europe, and has little to do with us."

"The beautiful country has long imposed a grain export ban on Europa. Do you think it has much to do with you?"

"Minister He, the ban belongs to the ban. Isn't there still smuggling? It's just [-] tons of flour. It shouldn't affect the overall situation, right?"

"It will definitely be affected. Although the prices of other grains have also risen, they are not as exaggerated as flour."

Minister He said unhappily.

The Coke Bread Factory was very cunning. When placing orders, they not only placed orders in batches, but also had several branches, which actually let them get away with it.

It wasn't until after the event was summarized that the tricks were discovered. Although the above-mentioned grain imports are not as strict as the export control, there are still relevant regulations.

If everyone was as unscrupulous as the Coke Bread Factory, the international food price would have already broken through the sky. After all, with the size of Daxia, it would be really expensive to buy, and it would be a natural mistake.

Dad Xu felt embarrassed about being caught: "Minister He, we have no choice. You know the international situation. We just want to take countermeasures in advance. After all, the supply of domestic flour has been tight."

The population of Daxia is [-] times that of Pretty Country. In addition, the conditions for growing wheat and rice are harsh, and the yield is far lower than that of other staple foods.

Domestic mainstream rations are still sweet potatoes and potatoes.

Also served with small-scale corn.

"Xu Dong, don't be nervous!" Minister He smiled, "Although you played a trick, but after all, you went through the formal procedure, and no one can say anything."

"Oh, it's troublesome for your work."

Father Xu apologized.

There is no way for them to do this. If they really follow the arrangements of the relevant departments, with the current popularity of foreign trade, so much flour may not be able to arrive until next year.

"Forget it this time. If you have a similar order next time, you must declare it truthfully, especially for large orders. If it works well, it can save a lot of procurement costs."

Minister He exhorted.

Dad Xu quickly agreed: "Understood, I will pay attention next time."

"Xu Dong, when will your batch of flour arrive?"

Minister He followed up and asked.

"Uh, Minister He, we managed to..."

"Don't worry, I'm just asking casually, and I won't think about your batch of flour."

"Oh, it's my heart to save a gentleman's heart." Xu's father immediately replied, "The first batch of flour has already been shipped, and it will probably not arrive until the end of October."

"Which route are you taking?"

"The situation in Europa is unstable. To be on the safe side, we plan to detour through South America and then cross the Pacific Ocean to return home. Although the voyage is a bit farther, it is better than safety."

"Does it call at Qingniwa Port?"

"Uh, no, I plan to call at the port of Incheon, and all the flour has to be shipped to the Hancheng branch. There are many restrictions in the country, and the procedures are not very convenient."

Dad Xu spoke very reservedly.

Minister He thought it was true: "Xu Dong, it is definitely not acceptable to put it in Hancheng. I forgot to tell you that your [-] tons of flour has already been included in the list of the National Emergency Center."

"What do you mean?"

Father Xu suddenly became nervous.

I said earlier that I would not stretch out my hand randomly, why did I change my mind again?

"Things are not what you think. Let me tell you this. As long as the country does not enter a state of emergency, you can use this batch of flour as usual, but once an emergency occurs, it will be confiscated immediately."

"We bought it for the purpose of avoiding danger?" Father Xu was in a bad mood.

"There is no need to be pessimistic. Even if there is a war in Europa, the country will not enter a state of emergency, unless the third world war really breaks out."

Minister He quickly comforted him.

But Dad Xu didn't feel relieved at all. It hasn't been a year since the state of emergency was lifted in China, so it's hard to believe that there won't be a comeback.

"Minister He, is there any room for change in this matter?"

"Mr. Xu, the food problem in China is still very serious. You don't think the people above are idiots, do you? How can we remain indifferent when there is so much flour in front of us?"

"That was not what I meant……"

"I understand. You don't need to explain. It's useless to ask anyone for this matter. Besides, even if the flour is expropriated, there is a high probability that it will be returned to you for use. After all, you are the largest flour consumer in China."

"Is this the so-called helping others and helping yourself?"

Father Xu smiled wryly.

"That's the reason. We're not bandits, so we won't let our own people suffer."

"Okay, let's do it."

Now that the matter has come to this point, Father Xu can only accept it.

……

Compared to Xu's father's "blow to the head", Yang Shuo's foreign trade company has recently received orders with reluctance.

The European countries are almost emptying out their old bottoms. They have exchanged for a boatload of supplies from the country, ranging from hundreds of thousands of tons of cargo ships to small pots and pans.

The fiery foreign trade market has directly raised the domestic wage level by ten percentage points abruptly.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Ma Lingling walked into her foreign trade company with two big lunch boxes. Yang Shuo was too busy with work, and tonight was another sleepless night.

Along the way, someone kept shouting:

"Hello, lady boss!"

Ma Lingling responded one by one.

Then I opened one of the lunch boxes, which contained more than 30 steamed corn buns with steam on top, which was a supper for the employees.

"Everyone can take whatever they are hungry."

"Thank you lady boss."

A little girl couldn't wait to take a steamed bun. She was tired of eating baguettes, so it was rare to have a change.

"Be careful it's hot." Ma Lingling reminded.

The little girl didn't care at all: "Wow, it's so sweet!"

"As long as you like it."

The steamed buns were made by Ma Lingling and her mother-in-law.

Not only sugar is put in it, but eggs are also added.

Proper high-end ingredients.
