Spy Wars: Red Shopkeeper

Chapter 76 Timing
No. 76 Jisi Feier Road.

Li Shiqun was a little confused after answering the phone.

"Is this a real seal or a fake one?"

He doesn't trade stocks and doesn't care about the stock market. He is now busy dealing with the affairs of the Military Control Commission. Whether prices outside rise or not has nothing to do with him, so he cannot understand Fu Xiaoan's intentions at all.

According to common sense, Fu Xiaoan would not let him seal the warehouses, and seal all the warehouses.

But the meaning of the words is that it really needs to be closed, which is very contradictory.

He had already contacted Wu Sibao about the matter and knew that the starting point was a business deal that Gu Yansheng asked Wu Sibao to do, and his wife was also involved.

Since Gu Yansheng took action and involved Fu Xiaoan, it can be said that it was an internal struggle.

Combined with the recent buzz about the new policy of the Department of Justice, he could roughly guess the positions of the two gangs.

From the perspective of pure profit, helping Fu Xiaoan now may not necessarily earn Fu Xiaoan's favor, because Wu Sibao was in the wrong first.

But by helping Gu Yansheng, one can earn Gu Yansheng's favor, and this is what the Japanese expect.

So although things are unclear, the choice itself is not difficult to make.

He picked up the phone and called Wu Sibao: "Sibao, strictly enforce the operation of sealing the warehouse. Without my order, no matter who asks for mercy, it will be sealed! The bigger the momentum, the better. It must be loud enough to let the Japanese know that our secret service headquarters is involved in this matter."

Several parties have decided what to do, and the final impact will be reflected in the stock market.

At the Public Industry Association, SH citizens were stunned by the price of cotton yarn futures.

I originally thought that 70 yuan for winter cotton yarn was already low enough. This was the stable price before the price increase, and it has just stabilized. I heard that Fu Xiaoan will not step down again. That is fake news. It is impossible for the Japanese to forcibly requisition it. A high-ranking Japanese official personally came forward to clarify it.

Some veteran investors even speculated that this was a setup by Fu Xiaoan himself. He would sell out the goods first, and then deliberately have the warehouse sealed and release bad news, killing the market to get cheap chips. After collecting the chips and coordinating with the Japanese to clarify the matter, he would definitely push up the price, and then sell out another wave of goods, so he would make money twice.

The analysis was logical and reasonable, so the price of cotton yarn rose from 60 yuan to 90 yuan, and even headed towards 100 yuan.

Who knew that in just a moment, the situation would change so suddenly.

Not to mention 70 yuan, even 60 yuan was broken through in less than 10 minutes.

Is that low enough? There's still 55 left.

It’s the coldest time of the year. Have you ever seen cotton yarn for 50 yuan?
Haven't seen it? That's right, open your eyes and see if it's 45 yuan.

It was originally thought that the price would never fall further to 45 yuan, even summer cotton yarn would be priced at this price. A group of people decided to buy at the bottom, and these people who bought at the bottom finally understood what it meant to buy at the bottom at the top of the mountain.

Forty dollars, just forty dollars, you can get a cotton yarn option.

Do you want it? No, there's still 38 yuan left.

Thirty-five dollars?
Fuck it, I tried to bottom-fish until I reached the eighteenth floor of the earth but still didn’t see the bottom.

The price keeps falling, and there is no bottom in sight.

"Is Fu Xiaoan going to step down again?"

"The Japanese forced conscription must be true. Those big investors must have been spreading false information to trick people into buying! We've been fooled!"

"Where is the person who just said Fu Xiaoan would not step down? Stand up, let me see what you look like."

"I knew this wasn't normal. Luckily I didn't get involved. If I had, I'd have jumped into the Huangpu River."

"If your skills aren't good enough, just admit it. If you're really bearish, then just buy the dip. Wouldn't that make you rich?"

"This is called being bearish but not shorting. What do you know?"

Department of Justice, Gu Yansheng’s office.

The latest stock market prices reached Gu Yansheng's ears through the flash report on the radio.

As Gu Yansheng sipped his coffee, he wondered why his current behavior was so much like Chiang Kai-shek's. Chiang Kai-shek listened to war reports while monitoring the stock market, while he listened to the stock market while working.

"It's still falling. The latest price of cotton yarn futures has dropped to 35 yuan. The price of cotton yarn in winter can actually drop to 35 yuan. Investors are lucky. This price is definitely the bottom price. If you buy one lot of cotton yarn now, you may make 100 yuan. Investors, it's time to buy the bottom. Don't hesitate."

Listening to the latest price of cotton yarn on the radio, thirty-five yuan.

Gu Yansheng picked up the phone and called Team Member No. 76 who was waiting at the door of the Zhongye Public Office.

He ordered, "Go to the counter at the Public Industry Office and cash out all the orders I gave you this morning. Don't keep a single one. Be quick."

Wu Sibao's deployment, the sealing of Fu Xiaoan's warehouse, and the arrangement of people to deliberately spread panic information within the Zhongye Association will inevitably cause the stock price to fall.

What happened in this part is also the entire price fluctuation that Gu Yansheng can control.

As for the rest of the time, whether the cotton yarn price goes up or down, he will not participate. He only takes the certain profits based on insider information.

"Okay, Director Gu, we'll go sell it right away."

"Well, after you sell it, take the money and go back first. You have nothing to do here."

"Ok."

After hearing the reply, Gu Yansheng hung up the phone and called Lu Bowen again.

"Come over here now, right now."

"what happened?"

Lu Bowen also came in a hurry.

Gu Yansheng took out the money box worth 80,000 oceans given by Wu Sibao and pushed it to him.

"Li Shiqun is interrogating the Military Control Commission, Wu Sibao is sealing up the warehouse, Fu Xiaoan is studying the stock market, the Japanese are watching the New Deal, rumors are spreading in Shanghai, and panic is spreading everywhere. The best time has come.

The Japanese army forced conscription, and some people would want to get rid of the hot potato in their hands. If you go to buy cotton yarn now, you probably won't even want the note. Start receiving the goods and try to finish it within two days."

Lu Bowen understood immediately and slapped the table lightly, standing up. "I'll act immediately. If I say that, those people might think this deal is shady and needs to be kept away from the Japanese. They might not even care about the identity of the trader. Do you think it's better for me to buy it myself, or let those people under my command do it?"

"It's all right." Gu Yansheng patted the suitcase. "No matter how you buy it, I'll set up a few rules for you. First, it has to be cheap. It's normal to bargain for it. Second, it has to come from many sources to prevent tracing. Third, all the money here must be spent. I want to split the bill with others."

Lu Bowen originally thought that this should be the money from the short selling orders, but when he opened it, he was shocked, "Why is there so much? Is it twice as much?"

"You can just buy it with Wu Sibao's money. That's why I said it doesn't matter whether you come forward or your subordinates do it, because Wu Sibao will already know that it's me who is buying it, and he is also one of the bosses."

"Ah~" Lu Bowen suddenly realized: "You took advantage of the low price of cotton yarn and dragged Wu Sibao into making money together. That way, even if he found out you were buying cotton yarn, he wouldn't even realize that some of it had disappeared. It's like hiding in plain sight, right?"

Gu Yansheng chuckled and gave one last reminder: "So you have to open a few more warehouses and separate them. Especially for the things we want to give away, put them separately. The rest can be divided into several warehouses. I still need to review the results with Wu Sibao."

Lu Bowen clapped his hands, and the look in his eyes when he looked at Gu Yansheng was full of amazement. "What a good plan! Don't say that outsiders don't know about it. At first, I thought you were planning to make a fortune in the stock market and save enough money to buy cotton yarn. I didn't expect you to be so capable. You even regarded Wu Sibao as an ally in buying cotton yarn. Oh, he used his money to buy us clothes?
Yansheng, it’s a good thing we’re on the same boat, otherwise I’d probably end up in your hands one day, and even be sold off and help you count the money.”

"That's called making the best use of one's talents." Gu Yansheng said with a smile, "Wu Sibao is fortunate enough to contribute a few pieces of clothing to our soldiers. This is a great honor. Help him to accumulate merit. As for you, it doesn't make any difference. You're counting the money anyway."

Lu Bowen was indeed counting money. He stopped and rolled his eyes when he heard this, then continued counting the money with a smile.

"how much is it?"

"Eighty thousand dollars, about twenty thousand dollars."

Gu Yansheng took out the copied addresses of the cotton yarn and rice shops and said, "The addresses of the cotton yarn and grain warehouses and who the owners are are all here. You can go directly or send someone to ask. You can buy whichever one you think is cheaper.

If you meet Wu Sibao's people, just say it's my business and ask them to come back later. If it's anyone else, ignore them. If they ask too many questions, say they are from the secret service headquarters and ask them to find Li Shiqun to verify.

We'll split the cotton yarn with Wu Sibao, and you can keep the rice for future business. When this is over, the price of rice will go back up, and your business should be good. This will also serve as a lesson to those who hoarded goods at a high price."

Lu Bowen nodded, closed the cash box, and said solemnly: "Okay, I will definitely take care of it."
