Attending ex-girlfriend's wedding, arresting the groom's officer on the spot

"Since we have figured out the profit point, let's start from this point and investigate the relationship between these people and Wang Dahai."

Lu Chuan had a hunch that Wang Dahai’s death must be related to these things and the huge interests involved behind them.

Although Qiangsheng Group does not engage in the rough processing of grain, it cannot bear it because it involves some fine processing.

I just called home on the way and asked in detail about the grain processing and the twists and turns involved.

In fact, the deputy chief of finance in the Grain Bureau and Lu Chuan just gave a rough explanation of the logical relationship here, but the actual operation is obviously much more complicated.

On the one hand, there is the sale of old grain. The sale of old grain does not mean that the grain depot can sell it whenever it wants or buy it whenever it wants. There are many relevant regulations.

For example, we need to judge whether the food supply in the market is tight, or the food storage time must reach a certain number of years.

Storing grain is not just about putting it away. It needs to be kept during this process, which costs a lot of money. Therefore, the sales of grain also depend on the price difference between the storage time and the storage fee during the period, and whether the profit can cover the storage fee.

In addition, policy approval requires approval from superiors before sales can be carried out, which is also the most important link.

Although the Mawang Town Grain Depot is a half-public and half-private unit that is responsible for its own profits and losses, it also has the task of storing grain.

Therefore, no one can move these reserve grains, and what others can move are mainly commercial grains.

A few years ago, some people had the idea of ​​storing grain, but they were either sentenced or shot. However, commercial grain is different.

The ultimate goal of commercial grain is to enter the market for circulation and storage, purchase it at a lower price, and store it when the grain supply is sufficient.

During the storage process, these grains can be managed in a more complete manner to ensure that they are of better quality. At the same time, when food supply is tight, they can be sold at a higher price, and the profit is made from the difference.

Therefore, Wang Zhaokai's next important investigation direction was focused on the commodity alliance merchants who had transactions with the Mawang Town Grain Depot.

This aspect of the investigation is not particularly difficult.

The information at the Mawang Town Grain Depot is relatively complete. There are corresponding accounts to check how much grain was sold, how much revenue was received, and who the buyers were over the years.

It is very clear to find some of the companies and individuals listed above that have had transactions with Mawang Town Grain Depot.

Wang Zhaokai and his team sorted out the relevant transaction details in less than a day, and all the large transactions were investigated. Over the years, the four grain reserve companies had mainly conducted grain transactions with the Mawang Town Grain Depot.

While investigating the entire transaction process, Wang Zhaokai and his team soon discovered some abnormal information.

Three of these four commercial grain companies had large-scale transactions with the Mawang Town Grain Depot for eight consecutive years.

Only one company started purchasing some commercial grain from the Mawang Town grain depot last year, but the purchase volume is relatively small, generally only about 100 tons a year. 100 tons is definitely not a small number in terms of numbers, but it is a small number in the context of grain sales.

Grain sales can only be large-scale, that is, at least hundreds of thousands of tons or millions of tons.

For example, the other three commercial grain companies that had large transactions at the Mawang Town Grain Depot and Mawang Town all had annual grain sales of around one million tons.

This amount basically accounts for 1/10 of the grain reserves in Mawang Town’s granary.

The three companies together account for 30% of the total annual grain reserves of Mawang Town, which is already a very large amount.

Of course, there was nothing wrong with the granary selling grain, and the Grain Bureau didn't find out anything. They just asked Wang Chao to change it. What puzzled them was the number of transactions between these three companies and the Mawang Town Grain Depot each year.

They usually buy old grain from the Mawang Town granary in July and August every year.

Judging from the market price at that time, the three companies basically purchased grain at a price difference of 5 cents to 5 cent higher than the market price, and this cents to cent was the source of profit for the entire Mawang Town Grain Depot.

One million tons of grain is equivalent to 100 billion jin if converted into kilograms. If the price difference per kilogram is 20 cents to one cent, then the profit is 5 to million!

This is just a commercial grain sales company. The profit that the company brings to the Mawang Town Grain Depot, if the three companies are added together, the annual profit is between 3 million and 000 million.

A grain depot can have a net profit of 3 to 000 million yuan per year, which is already quite considerable.

This is also the fundamental reason why the Mawang Town grain depot now has 3 million in cash in its account. In addition to the profits handed over to the upper level, the benefits paid to employees, the expenses of improving the grain depot's storage management methods and purchasing equipment, etc., after deducting all the expenses, there is still 000 million left.

But apart from this, Wang Zhaokai and his team found something strange: after these three grain-selling companies purchased old grain from the Mawang Town grain depot in July and August, they sold about one million tons of grain in October.

"I have already asked about the general situation at the grain depot. October is the time for new grain to be stored each year. These three companies are the most important sources of new grain for the Mawang Town Grain Depot. Because of this, the Mawang Town Grain Depot has a large amount of grain sales and income every year, which can ensure that the grain depot's inventory can be activated."

Wang Zhaokai said.

On the surface, there is basically nothing suspicious about this. Since these three commercial grain companies purchased a large amount of old grain from the Mawang Town Grain Depot and offered the other party a price difference of 5 cents to one cent, it brought considerable profits to the Mawang Town Grain Depot. Then it is normal for them to sell new grain in autumn every year.

But is it really normal?
Lu Chuan was a little confused for a moment, so he made two phone calls to inquire about the specific situation of commercial grain purchases.

After asking this question, I realized that it is not just a simple matter of buying and selling.

Not to mention the sale of grain, whether it is the sale of stored grain or the sale of old grain, generally speaking, it follows the market price. This is also the reason why the Mawang Town Grain Depot makes money.

The key is the purchase of new grain. When the purchase of new grain begins each year, the basic price should be determined based on the market price. (End of this chapter)
