Agriculture Maniac

Chapter 183 A distinguished guest arrives and the wife returns to the factory
That night.

Yu Yang carefully studied the spirit of the Long March and understood the background and significance of our army's capture of Luding Bridge.

Then a comprehensive analysis of the enemy was conducted.

It turns out that everything we are facing now is really a bit similar to what it was back then.

Unfortunately, after thinking for most of the night, he still couldn't find the Luding Bridge in the commercial field.

In other words, we failed to find a breakthrough point.

After all, these are the only resources we have, and we have basically developed all the side jobs that are possible and have advantages.

Fortunately, the competitor just showed his sword.

This huge army that brings together global capital cannot break in for the time being.

Because the Most-Favored-Nation Agreement signed between North America and the East, although effective, has not yet determined the import and export trade list.

As a result, if a commodity was shipped from North America, it would have to pay high export tariffs; and if it entered the East, it would have to pay high import tariffs.

Ultimately, American products are not very competitive in the East.

As a result, this huge army group had no choice but to set up offices in various parts of the East and look for agents.

Just like a movie theater, the audience rushes in and looks for seats before the movie even starts.

The real show will begin when the movie is broadcast, that is, when the East joins the WTO.

Yu Yang recalled the time when the East joined the WTO in another time and space, and then picked up the calendar to calculate.

"This gives us at least one year to prepare for the war."

"One year?"

"It took me a year and a half to develop into what it is now. Another year later..."

"I'm afraid I'm going to pin you to the ground and rub you again!"

Yu Yang said this, but he was very clear about it in his mind.

The East could not resist the influx of foreign capital.

First, the East is relatively underdeveloped and needs foreign investment to bring in high-tech.

Second, the East is experiencing a wave of layoffs, and the influx of foreign capital and investment in factory construction will greatly ease employment pressure.

Third, the Russian Bear disintegrated, the Southern Alliance was broken up, and the East was almost isolated and helpless. It was necessary to contact the outside world in order to develop new friends.

Therefore, for us, development is the most important thing.

Yu Yang immediately formulated the next stage of development plan.

Blended oil, feed, soy products...

The next day.

The receptionist rushed into the office and said, "Director Yu, there is a motorcade with Beijing license plates outside."

"Beijing license plate?"

"Yes, 16 police motorcycles, five Audi A6s, seven Volkswagens, and nine minibuses."

"Good guy!"

Yu Yang quickly tidied his clothes and walked out while contacting the boss and the city manager.

Unexpectedly, neither Dongshan Prefecture nor Tai City received the news.

"Strange, who is this blind person coming?"

They have been fighting a life-and-death battle with foreign capital, and their superiors have never sent representatives to investigate.

The purpose is to show an attitude: Sanyuan Agriculture is an independently developed enterprise. If you in the West want something, you can ask Sanyuan Agriculture for it yourself. We in the East only provide a fair and just competition environment. Don't think of influencing the development of Sanyuan Agriculture through your superiors in the East, and don't think of using the negotiation table to get what you want through your superiors in the East.

But now a big shot has been sent...

"Could it be that after getting the high-performance J11B, the superiors are getting cocky?"

"That's not possible!"

Yu Yang pondered and walked out of the office hall.

In the vast parking lot, dozens of luxury cars with Beijing A license plates were seen stopping to drop off passengers or parking in VIP parking spaces at the behest of security and concierge staff.

At this time.

The little spy - the female counselor appeared beside Yu Yang, and when she saw the figure in the distance, she frowned and said:
"The ADM special research team is here."

"What are they doing here?"

Yu Yang knew about this temporary agency.

It is reported that the ADM special research group, although not a formal official agency, can mobilize resources from multiple departments. Even in an emergency, it can control foreign exchange, influence economic strategies, dominate the operation of business systems, and curb the development of major banks.

The team includes: Asia-Pacific Economic Research Office, Hong Kong Economic Research Office, ADM Research Office, Sanyuan Agricultural Research Office, Agricultural Strategy Research Office, Foreign Trade Bureau Research Office, Standard Currency Stabilization Research Office, Foreign Exchange Research Office, Futures Research Office...

It was first established in 1950. It has shorted international gold, extradited many important scientists, secretly purchased five-axis CNC machine tools, and sniped Soros...

It was disbanded and established several times during this period.

The 'group' in front of us was established in 1999. The person in charge was the head of the Guang District in the s and s, and is now a member of the Eastern Advisory Committee.

His eldest son is the deputy general manager of the Hong Kong Stock Exchange.

The second son was the head of Guangdong Guotou, which was one of the three largest shareholders of Asia Group and went bankrupt last year.

The third son is the head of the Guangqu Development Bank.

The eldest daughter is the Eastern President of Salomon Smith Barney, also known as Citigroup.

The second daughter is the director of women's affairs in Guang District, and the second son-in-law is the general manager of Tai City.

So, in fact, Yu Yang knows everything.

After all, Brother Dong is behind us, so if you want to find out anything, we can get it done with just one phone call.

As for whether this person is a friend or an enemy...

Is Mr. Dong a good person?

Until now, it is still hard to say.

But Old Dong dared to bravely enter Dongshan Prefecture for the development of Shiliying.

Therefore, people, especially those in high positions, are very complex.

It’s hard to tell whether it’s good or bad.

However, the other party takes care of the governor of Tai City, and the governor of Tai City and his family share the same fate. Generally speaking, they are friends.

Unless the other party abandons the second son-in-law, the governor of Tai City, for greater benefits.

The thought in Yu Yang's mind was fleeting, and he quickly walked towards the old voice who had called him before and asked him to shift the business war from the pharmaceutical field to other areas.

An ordinary old farmer.

"Leader, I miss you so much."

"???"

"Every time my uncle (Thai City Manager) comes to Shiliying, he always tells me stories about your heroic deeds in the battlefield. Every time I hear them, my blood boils and I wish I was born thirty years earlier."

"Alas, that's all in the past. I'm old now and can't swing a knife or hold a gun anymore."

"Then go back, we are not on the same path."

"..."

"see a visitor out."

After Yu Yang finished speaking, he turned and walked into the office lobby.

Leaving everyone stunned.

After the old farmer realized what was happening, he cursed inwardly, "Yu Sanyuan is indeed as cunning as a fox," and quickly caught up with him, "Wait, Xiao Yu, I came here this time to ask for something."

Yu Yang kept walking, "You know the situation of Sanyuan Agriculture better than me. The war is imminent and there is nothing we can do."

At this critical juncture, the other party came here from the capital in a swagger, definitely wanting Sanyuan Agriculture to solve a big problem.

How can we solve a big problem that our superiors can't solve?
Suddenly.

Seven or eight middle-aged men who were walking with the old man quickly surrounded him.

"Mr. Yu, I'm the person in charge of Xijiang's investment promotion."

"Mr. Yu, I'm the person in charge of Nanyun Agriculture."

"Director Yu, I am the head of Jianfu Economic Office."

"Mr. Yu, I'm Bashu..."

"Director Yu, you have to help us, otherwise we will really be in trouble."

After listening to the diverse introductions and the subsequent explanations, Yu Yang stopped in his tracks.

There are indeed big troubles everywhere.

The reason is that last year the company purchased a total of 3500 billion US dollars, or about billion blue dollar bills, of plant-based raw materials, which made the relevant growers in the east and the mountain people in the southwest earn a lot of money and also enabled the relevant growers and related regions to expand their planting volume.

However, in December last year, the company broke up with ADM, stopped producing inks and pigments, and stopped purchasing plant-based raw materials. Instead, it consumed the last batch of inventory worth US$12 billion.

What should be done with plant-based raw materials after the regions expand their cultivation?
You can't have the plants destroyed halfway through, right?
Therefore, each region had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue planting.

By May of this year, plant-based raw materials had grown, the trend of martial arts had emerged, and Sanyuan Pharmaceutical had made a comeback, giving hope to all places.

But the yield after expanding the planting is too high.

Far exceeds the purchasing volume of Sanyuan Pharmaceutical.

"Mr. Yu, we can supply you this batch of plant-based raw materials at cost. We only hope that you can help the growers get their money back. Otherwise, countless families in this already poor and backward region will be torn apart."

“Can’t you provide subsidies locally?”

"When we came here, we calculated the total output. Since the planting area has been expanded this year, the total output of all regions combined is at least 1500 billion. How can we make up for it?"

Yu Yang's face darkened, "1500 billion? What did you grow?"

"Cordyceps sinensis, Codonopsis pilosula, Tibetan ginseng, cloves, saffron, ulula grass, angelica, Polygonum multiflorum, Polygonatum sibiricum, Coptis chinensis, Cuscuta australis, Cistanche deserticola, Poria cocos, Lycium barbarum, Panax notoginseng, Acorus calamus... Some of them were planted in previous years and happened to be available for harvest this year."

"In 98, the total output of Chinese herbal medicine in Dongfang was only 600 billion. We are only halfway through this year, and you want to give me 00 billion?" "In fact, there are many places that have not been counted in time. It may exceed 1500 billion, more or less."

"..."

"Director Yu, please help me."

"Yes, Mr. Yu, when you came here, our leader said that you can ask for any conditions you want, as long as this big problem is solved. Even if you come to our place to develop tourism and want to demolish the provincial compound, we locals will never say no."

"Yes, yes, yes. Even if you want to engage in real estate development, we can give you the land first."

I didn't even demolish the Dongshan compound, so how can I demolish yours across regions?

Yu Yang walked into the negotiation area and asked everyone to take a seat.

"To be honest, I really can't help you. It has nothing to do with money. After all, we can deliver the goods first and pay later. The problem is that our company does not have such a large consumption, or in other words, I can't help you convert it into cash, especially since I still have a lot of it in my warehouse."

"Director Yu, even if the outside world doesn't know your abilities, how can we not know? If you put in a little effort and think carefully, you will definitely be able to find a solution."

"Yes, Mr. Yu, for you, it's nothing more than crossing the Chishui River again."

"stop!"

Yu Yang took a deep breath, walked to the wall, and looked at the factory layout. "Look, our company's entire territory is here."

As he spoke, he picked up a metal rod, installed a signature pen, and drew a few circles and arrows on it. "After chemicals, traditional Chinese medicine, and daily chemicals, in order to avoid foreign capital blocking the entire industry, our company adjusted its strategy and focused on blending oil and entertainment sports."

"Mr. Yu, your blended oil will be the only legal edible oil in our province!"

"Yes, yes, Mr. Yu, this is the only edible oil that complies with the regulations in our province. We will help you obtain all the certificates and certifications."

"It's the same in our province. Anyone who dares to cause trouble will be arrested on the same day, and there will never be any negative news."

"Director Yu, if you engage in entertainment sports, our province will fully support you!"

Yu Yang lit a cigarette. "The problem is that my family's business strategy cannot consume more Chinese herbal medicines, especially expensive ones... I'm sorry, everyone. I really can't help you."

"Mr. Yu, are you lacking inspiration? How about you come to live in Bashu for a while, and eat, drink and have fun for free."

"Jianfu welcomes you!"

"Xijiang welcomes you!"

"..."

Everyone is talking at once.

The front desk clerk came rushing over again.

"Mr. Yu, Mr. Smith and his wife are here to visit."

"What are they doing here?"

"I don't know. He said he wanted to discuss something with you."

Yu Yang frowned slightly and looked at the representatives from Nanyun, Xijiang, Bashu, Jianfu and other places. "Leaders, there are two foreigners visiting us. Their identities are a bit special."

"Director Yu, please go ahead and do your work. We'll be waiting here."

"Why don't we go to the guesthouse first? If I have a solution, I will definitely help you cash it out."

"Alright."

The head of the ADM special research team, the old farmer, seemed to have received the news as well, and greeted everyone, "Let's talk about these things after Xiao Yu is done."

After saying that, he went out the back door and left the reception area.

Yu Yang stared at his back, somewhat puzzled.

How did this old man know the back door to the reception area?

He immediately looked at the little spy-female counselor standing beside him, "Your grandfather?"

"Your grandpa!"

The latter rolled his eyes and turned away.

Yu Yang was slightly stunned, and only then did he realize that this question sounded a bit like an insult.

Then he walked quickly to the front desk.

Old Smith, whom I had met once before, was still dressed in black, a black round hat, a black coat, black trousers, and black leather shoes.

Mrs. Smith was dressed quite youthfully, wearing a pink woven hat, a lace-trimmed tweed coat, and white leather shoes decorated with a diamond rose.

"Isn't it hot, you two?"

"..."

After a short silence.

Mrs. Smith said, "Dear Yu, we meet again."

"It's a pity that you are no longer the noble lady in my mind."

"In fact, I have said more than once that we can cooperate."

"Yes, we can cooperate, but if I take out what you want, outside investors will definitely stop me. At least Old Bull won't let you get it easily, and may even kill me. At this time, can you provide me with protection?"

"Sure."

"I'm sorry, but you can't even protect your own son, Little Smith, so how can you protect me?"

"..."

Yu Yang led the two people into the negotiation area and found that the nicotine smell produced by smoking while everyone was discussing things had not yet been removed by the fresh air system, so he simply turned around and walked into the office.

Old Smith accidentally glanced at the industrial planning map of Sanyuan Agriculture, his pupils shrank, and he straightened his glasses, intending to carefully write down the circles and lines he had just drawn with a pen.

Unexpectedly, a forensic doctor who was passing by picked up the mop and smeared it on his face, then turned around and tore down the planning map.

Yu Yang didn't care if the Smiths saw the plan and what had just been drawn, because it was already mid-May, and both the Smith family and Bush's Unilever already knew that their next strategy was to blend oil.

As for entertainment and sports.

To be honest, apart from the elements of "gambling" and "laundering", these two industries are not very profitable at the moment.

Just like last year's most popular album "Jay", the sales volume was only 28 copies, and at most the sales volume would not exceed 300 million.

As for movies, since they cannot be released overseas, no matter how popular the box office is, it is impossible for them to sell 1000 million.

Let’s look at sports.

Nowadays, not even one TV is available in 10 households, and there is no online payment or live streaming. What else can a few celebrities be used for besides being product ambassadors? The ultimate benefit created is at most million.

Therefore, foreign capital will not care about these two industries which are just a joke.

"How did you do that? Apologize to the old man quickly."

After Yu Yang finished speaking, without waiting for the forensic sister to apologize, he secretly signaled her to leave and quickly looked at Old Smith, "Are you okay?"

"Oh, Yu, your subordinates are too reckless."

"I turned around and fired her."

Fortunately, there was nothing on the dry mop and Old Smith only had his glasses knocked off.

Clean up a bit.

The three of them walked into the office.

Mrs. Smith spoke again: "Yu, I am here this time to seek cooperation, but I am no longer interested in your technologies. What I care about is the production capacity and quality control of Sanyuan Agriculture."

"You're going to make me a foundry again?"

"If you want, the business of L'Oréal Industrial, Apple, Microsoft, Intel, IBM, and Huipu can all be subcontracted to you."

Mrs. Smith said, "You are a smart person. You should understand that it is inevitable for these companies to flock to the East. If you don't want these OEM businesses, someone will definitely want them. But I don't want to hand them over to Marubeni Trading Company controlled by the old Bucarel consortium, which means I don't want to hand them over to Japanese companies."

Then he added: "The East will definitely become the world's foundry."

"Dear Yu, if you cooperate with us, you will be the director of the world's OEM factory."

"This means you will step onto the world stage and gain endless wealth."

Yu Yang shook his head, "Sorry, I just want to be a world grain trader."

"You can make conditions."

Mrs. Smith said, then she took out a bottle of refreshing soup from her handbag, raised her head and took a sip.

When Yu Yang saw this scene, he recognized that this was the drink that Liao Pengfei had made for the Xiangjiang San Yuan Restaurant. It was said to be very popular and all the rage in Hong Kong.

The elderly drink it, students drink it, office workers drink it...

It sells more than the drinking water for residents.

The ingredient is Acorus calamus, also known as Golden Money Cattail, and then seasonings such as Panax notoginseng, mint, citric acid, etc. are added to make different flavors.

It has the effects of opening the orifices and clearing phlegm, refreshing the mind and improving intelligence, removing dampness and stimulating the appetite.

It can also treat deafness due to qi stagnation, chest tightness, coma and forgetfulness.

"Madam, you can't bear it any longer."

After Yu Yang sighed, he was slightly stunned.

Acorus calamus?
It seems that a lot of this stuff is grown in four provinces.

Maybe it can be extended nationwide.

Coincidentally, the equipment of Sanyuan Pharmaceutical and Sanyuan Daily Chemical can do this.

and many more!

Since it can be used to make refreshing soup, what about Chinese herbal flavored soda?
Or, what about drinks with other benefits?
In this way, can the Chinese herbal medicines in the four provinces be consumed quickly?

They even use Sanyuan Chemical's idle equipment, such as deodorizers, fat removers, and color removers, to get rid of the herbal taste, and then add their own food coloring agents, to make beverages that people like to drink but also have the effects of traditional Chinese medicine.

Yu Yang thought about it and felt that it was feasible.

In particular, they also grow a lot of fruits and vegetables at home.

He blinked and said sincerely: "Madam, thank you!"

"???"
