The strongest peasant city

Chapter 653
Tian Qing said: "I know you have difficulties, but no matter how great your difficulties are, can they be greater than those of the peasants? You are just begging for help, and the difficulties of farmers will kill people!"

Cheng Hua smiled wryly and said, "Begging more? Tell me who should I beg? As long as you name such a person, he can help us solve the current crisis, I will kneel down in front of him, and I will be unambiguous." !"

Cheng Hua's words made Tian Qing's words stagnate. Only now did he realize that there must be no way to go to heaven and no way to go to earth. He couldn't help feeling depressed, and silently lowered his head.

Seeing Tian Qing's expression, Cheng Hua also felt a little uncomfortable, patted Tian Qing on the shoulder and said: "Tian Qing, the food problem has now evolved into a national social problem. This cannot be solved by relying on just one city Yes, it requires a nationwide mobilization to coordinate with each other and work together to overcome this difficulty. Don’t feel too bad, I believe that the dark clouds will eventually clear and the sun will come out sooner or later!”

Hearing Cheng Hua's words, Tian Qing sighed a long time, and said in a deep voice: "I only hope that the dark clouds will dissipate, and the sun will come sooner! We can wait, but the farmers can't wait..." Said After finishing, Tian Qing dragged some heavy steps, turned around and left Cheng Hua's office slowly.

Looking at his back, Cheng Hua's heart was also full of helplessness. He sat on the chair and lit a cigarette, but he didn't put it in his mouth for a long time. He just kept watching the cigarette, which slowly burned into a cigarette. ash……

As soon as Tian Qing returned to the Grain Bureau, the secretary told him that there were two people waiting for him in the reception room, and one of them was his old uncle.Tian Qing frowned suddenly, shook his head with a wry smile, and walked to the reception room.

As soon as he entered the door, Tian Qingzhi said to the old village chief: "I said, old uncle, why are you here again? If you do this again, I will really go crazy!"

The old village chief glared at him angrily and said, "Oh, it's not okay for me to be an uncle to visit my nephew?"

Tian Qing smiled wryly and said: "Where did you come to see me? You are clearly here to give me a problem! I have something to say first, I will definitely find a way to get the villagers to sell the food in Linxi Village, but it will take some time! That's all I have Great ability, you can figure it out!"

"Hey... Qingwazi, let me tell you! I've already taken care of our Linxi food, so you don't need to worry about it!" The old village head said with a proud smile.

Tian Qing couldn't help being startled when he heard that, he turned his head to look at the old village head, and said in a nasty voice, "It's solved? What... what do you mean?" Tian Qing's heart fluctuated.

The old village head shook his head, and said with a smile, "You're still the head of the food bureau? The comprehension ability is not ordinary! I said it was resolved, and naturally it was sold!"

"Sold... sold!?" Tian Qing jumped up from the sofa all of a sudden, as if he had seen a ghost.

"Ah! It's not sold, one yuan and five catties, not a single grain left, all sold, haha..." Seeing Tian Qing's expression, the old village chief smiled even happier.

"One... one yuan and five!?" The series of shocks made Tian Qing almost lose his breath on the spot, shook his head in disbelief and said, "Old uncle, don't you stop lying to me? Now even the country's Protective price, the best rice is only about [-] cents, but you sold it for [-] yuan, I don’t believe there are such fools in the world.”

When the old village chief heard it, he was afraid that Li Xiaogang would not listen, so he hurriedly scolded: "You Qing son, how do you talk? Your old uncle, can I still lie to you, a junior?"

The old village head has always been known for his seriousness. If he could joke, a sow would climb a tree.

Tian Qing's expression became serious, and he murmured, "Old uncle, have all the food in Linxi been sold?"

The old village head curled his lips and said: "Isn't it? If you were counting on you, the food would have been rotten, hmph!"

Tian Qing didn't care about the old village head's complaints, and hurriedly asked: "Quick... tell me quickly, how did you sell these grains, and who did you sell them to? Why are you still selling them at such a high price?" Son, tell me quickly!"

Seeing Tian Qing's eagerness to go to the house, the old village head said with a smile: "Tian Qing, Tian Qing, you really don't know Mount Tai. There is a living Bodhisattva sitting in front of you, but you want my land Gong, hey!"

The old village chief let out a long sigh, and pushed Li Xiaogang into Tian Qing's sight.

Tian Qing glanced at Li Xiaogang inadvertently before, and subconsciously regarded him as the old village chief's follower, so he didn't pay much attention.

Looking at it carefully, he was startled in his heart, secretly thought that he was really blind, and he didn't pay attention to such an extraordinary figure.

Standing up hastily, he said to Li Xiaogang, "Hi, what's your name, sir?"

Li Xiaogang also stood up with a smile and said, "Miangui's surname is Li, hello Director Tian."

Tian Qing hurriedly held the hand that Li Xiaogang offered, and laughed loudly: "Hello, hello! Could it be that Mr. Li bought the grain in Linxi Village with a big sum of money?"

Li Xiaogang smiled wryly, and jokingly said, "That's right, I am the idiot Director Tian just mentioned, ha ha..."

As soon as Li Xiaogang's words came out, Tian Qing was embarrassed immediately, and said in a nasty way: "That...that is actually me being an idiot, Mr. Li, don't take it to heart, let alone take offense, I'm about to be killed during this period of time. The food thing is tormenting me crazy, hehe..."

Li Xiaogang waved his hand and said, "How could it be? I have never been an idiot when I grow up. I tried it this time and it feels pretty good. Haha..."

Li Xiaogang's humorous words immediately dispelled Tian Qing's embarrassment, and at the same time made the atmosphere more harmonious and warm.

After sitting down again, Tian Qing couldn't wait to say to Li Xiaogang: "Mr. Li buys grain at such a high price, is he going to further process it into food or what is he going to do with it?"

Li Xiaogang shook his head and said, "No, I'm in the grain export business, and all the grain I buy must be exported overseas, that's why the purchase price is so high."

"Exit!? That's right, why didn't I think of this road..." Tian Qing was inspired by Li Xiaogang's words, but soon became depressed again. He frowned and said, "No, as far as I know, we The surrounding countries are all major food producers. Although there are a lot of disasters this year, the food supplied to the country is still sufficient, and there is no need to import food from China..."

Li Xiaogang said: "Director Tian, ​​you really are an out-and-out food person. Zhang is so familiar with food matters. Zhang is deeply impressed. The food I collected is not intended to be exported to these countries, but to be released farther away. , such as Iraq, the Middle East!"

"Yiguo!? Mr. Li is not kidding, right? There is a war going on there!" Tian Qing said in confusion.

Li Xiaogang said with a mysterious smile: "Because of the war, the farmers have no intention of growing grain, so there is more food demand there, haha..." "But... this is too dangerous..." Tian Qing said blankly.

Li Xiaogang narrowed his eyes, and said, "Wealth and wealth come from insurance! If you want to make profits, you must not be afraid to take risks! The reason why I asked the old village chief to bring me to you today is to ask you to do me a favor!"

Tian Qing straightened his body and said: "What's the matter, Mr. Li just say, as long as I can do it, I will never refuse!"

Li Xiaogang said: "It's like this. I'm only alone. I need to find some helpers, such as those responsible for weighing, keeping accounts, paying, and carrying..."

After hearing Li Xiaogang's words, Tian Qing said calmly: "I thought it was a big deal! Now the major grain depots have temporarily stopped purchasing grain, and a large number of staff are idle. I am worried that I can't find something. Let them do things for them, it’s fine now, you can have as many people as you want, and I can dispatch them to you right away!”

A look of joy flashed across Li Xiaogang's face, and he said, "Then I would like to thank Director Tian. There is one more thing, we need a warehouse to store grain. It is rainy in the south, and I don't want all the grain collected to be soaked in water. "

Li Xiaogang's request really stumped Tian Qing, Tian Qing said with a wry smile: "Mr. Take more. But..." Tian Qing spread his hands, showing helplessness on his face.

"Qingwazi, Mr. Li is doing good deeds for the farmers in our city S. You should support whatever you say, right? Just think of a way!"

"Old uncle, don't you know me? If there is a way, I would have agreed, not to mention that Mr. Li can come to us to buy grain and help us solve the biggest problem in front of us. How can I not help in good faith! ?” Tian Qing said to the old village head with a wry smile.

Li Xiaogang smiled at the old village chief and said, "It is understandable that Director Tian has difficulties, so you don't have to force him." After speaking, Li Xiaogang looked at Tian Qing and said, "Since this is not possible, there is only one way.

Director Tian, ​​please contact me with a transportation company. The collected grains will be immediately loaded into trucks and transported to the wharf in City S, from where they will go directly to sea! "

Tian Qing thought for a while, then gritted his teeth and said: "Okay! Let's do it like this! I will greet the wharf, but... just do you have a boat?" Li Xiaogang smiled and said: "Is this boat still difficult? It really can't , just rent it!"

Tian Qing nodded and said, "That's right! I was worrying too much..."

Li Xiaogang said with a smile: "I would like to ask Director Tian to help me with the above matters. I am a foreigner, so it is difficult to deal with it!"

Tian Qing waved his hand and said: "Mr. Li is wrong to say that. Now you are the savior of our farmers in S City, and you have solved our biggest problem right now. I don't know how to thank you. It is only natural to help. But..." Tian Qing looked a little embarrassed, hesitant to speak.

Li Xiaogang smiled and said: "Director Tian has helped me so much, if there is anything I can do to help you, I will naturally not refuse. Please tell me, Director!"

Tian Qing cleared his throat and said, "If that's the case, then I won't be hypocritical. Mr. Li, you see, Linxi is just one of the tens of thousands of villages in S City, and now the farmers in the entire S City have a large backlog of The grain cannot be sold. Since Mr. Li intends to export, the amount needed must be astonishing. Then why not expand the scope of purchase?"

Li Xiaogang thought for a while and said: "What you said is not wrong at all. The Middle East is indeed facing a huge food gap. It is still pitifully small. It is unrealistic to clear up the backlog of grain for three or four years by relying on the consumption of this area.

However, farmers are eager to sell grain now. Once the news of our purchase of grain leaks out, I am afraid that farmers from all over the country will gather here. At that time, they will come from thousands of miles, but because the market in the Middle East is saturated, we If you can't accept it, then you will be in big trouble! "
