Since the opening of the border opening agreement, federal caravans have poured into Qingshan Stadium in an endless stream. After being closed for more than ten years, the crowded and impoverished imperial capital—now Qingshan Town—has finally ushered in its long-lost prosperity.
However, the harmonious economic and trade exchanges only lasted for two days.
On the third day, a large number of trucks from several major federal chambers of commerce suddenly appeared in the Qingshan Town market, and large signs were erected in front of several medium-sized stalls with the words "Big Sale" written on them.
At the same time, several vendors in front of the stall started shouting at the top of their lungs.
"Cheap nutritional mixtures are available in various types. We are having a tearful clearance sale! Nutritional mixtures are 30% cheaper than the market price. Don't miss it if you pass by!"
"We are 40% cheaper here! Is there anything cheaper than us? Come and buy it! If you miss this opportunity, you will have to wait until next year!"
"Buy, buy, buy. This is a necessity anyway. It has a long shelf life. You might as well buy more to keep at home. Where can you wait for such a large-scale sale!"
The citizens passing by saw this and came forward to watch. Amidst the shouts of competition for price reduction, everyone took out the Yajing in their pockets and rushed to buy these low-priced nutritional mixtures.
Faced with this sudden price reduction trend, other stall owners were dumbfounded when faced with empty stalls.
Will the price go down as well
But the prices offered by these merchants from the Federation are already close to their cost prices! Some businessmen even found out with tears that their cost price had been penetrated. Instead of selling nutritional mixtures now, it would be better to go to this federal stall to buy some.
No one thought that this ubiquitous gadget would cause such a big disturbance.
It’s not like no one has come up with ideas.
Several major nutritional mixture retailers in Qingshan Town gathered together to discuss and jointly invest to buy out the nutritional mixtures in the hands of these federal merchants, and then slowly wait for the excess nutritional mixtures to be digested by the market, and then let the market price return to rationality.
However, ideals are beautiful, but the world is cruel.
Several retailers spent a total of 100,000 Yajing to buy the nutritional mixture from the federal merchant's inventory. Yet these retailers haven't breathed a sigh of relief yet. In just one day, batches of nutritional mixtures were trucked into Qingshan Town...
Large-scale dumping continues.
In just two days, according to statistics, the number of nutritional mixtures per capita in Qingshan Town has reached close to 600. This is enough to feed the survivors for almost half a year. Now, even federal merchants can't sell it. Not to mention that the market is extremely saturated, local residents don’t have many crystals on hand due to frantic buying.
After the madness comes the depression.
Regarding the current situation of Qingshan Town. Steel Gear Chamber of Commerce is very satisfied. As the behind-the-scenes supporter of the federal president, it was he who single-handedly brokered peace with the NAC, the free trade agreement on exchange of supplies, and the current nutritional supplement dumping incident.
"Mr. Jia Ming, I wish you to become the president of the entire Hongcheng area."
"Hahaha, you praise me too much, Boss Liu. Without your help, how could I have received such an honor?"
At the wine table, Jia Ming frequently toasted to the businessman known as Boss Liu. Even though he is the president, he knows it very well. The fact that I am able to sit in this position is at least half of the credit of the man in front of me. So in front of this funder, he has no airs of a president at all.
"NAC conquered the imperial capital, but never would have thought that in the end they would make a wedding dress for our federation. Wow, it's really ironic." Liu Hong, known as Boss Liu, leaned on his chair, shook his wine glass, and said leisurely Said.
"What's your next move?" the president asked.
"Now the market in Qingshan Town is in chaos. We are just waiting for the local businessmen to go bankrupt, and then we will reach out to buy the farmland and processing plants they sold off." The little eyes narrowed to a slit. Liu Hong smiled sinisterly.
"Do you need my cooperation?" the president smiled.
"No, now we just need to finish the chess step by step." Liu Hong said slowly.
…
Are these nutritional supplements really okay
No problem at all!
No matter how you check it, these nutritional supplements are genuine products, not shoddy junk.
As long as it is a slightly larger survivor settlement. For such large quantities of goods entering, sampling and quality inspection will be carried out. After all, some D-type nutritional mixtures are made from the flesh and blood of alien species and zombies. Who would dare to eat them without testing their toxicity? Moreover, the possibility of predators posing as caravans and poisoning the nutritional mixture is not ruled out.
Due to large-scale dumping by federal merchants, Qingshan Town’s quality inspectors have also stepped up inspections of imported nutritional mixtures. To prevent the mixing of toxic products.
If he were the leader of another small settlement and saw how cheap the nutritional mixture on his own market was, he would probably laugh out of his dreams. But for a slightly larger survivor colony, an excessive amount of nutritional mixture can not only make people "full", but also "overstuffed"...
"Currently, three nutritional mixture retailers that have cooperative relationships with our group have gone bankrupt. If the price of nutritional mixture continues to be low, considering the profit margin, we will have to close the 100 acres of mutant fruit plantation at Jinxi Lake Farm... Of course, I will not do this. Although other small shareholders have strongly urged me to do so," Zhao Chenwu said.
"What do they want to do?" Jiang Chen frowned slightly.
"Through nutritional mixtures, our market order is disrupted. Not only nutritional mixtures, because of their large-scale dumping, our food business has also declined by 28% year-on-year in the past few days, and the turnover of other non-related industries has also declined to a certain extent. decline." Zhao Chenwu said.
By "plundering" the currency in the hands of consumers through nutritional mixtures, they forcefully squeeze out the consumption potential of the market. It’s not just nutritional mixtures that are affected. The sales of instant noodles, compressed biscuits, cans and other replaceable foods that originally sold well have also been greatly affected. There are also weapons, bullets, and even clothing that cannot be hit with eight sticks...
"Not only that, the transaction price of the land ownership certificate of Jinxi Lake Farm also dropped in the exchange of the Sixth Street Bank. After all... the federation has such cheap nutritional mixtures, and the price of mutated fruits as raw materials has also been affected. "
"Is it a chain reaction?... It's all affected the Sixth District 600 kilometers away." Jiang Chen said thoughtfully, "But I don't understand why they got so much nutritional mixture. Dumping it at a loss, they Aren’t you worried about losing money and going bankrupt?”
"They can use the sub-crystals dumped at a loss to acquire rapidly depreciating land. In this way, instead of losing money, they may actually make a lot of money."
Hearing what Zhao Chenwu said, Jiang Chen suddenly realized.
As expected of an equally cunning businessman, this guy saw through the conspiracy of the federal businessman at a glance.
As less Yajing circulates in Hongcheng, the purchasing power of Yajing is naturally forcibly increased. The devaluation of land used for farming caused by the dumping of nutritional mixtures has allowed them to purchase more land from farmers and businessmen who have reduced production or gone bankrupt.
Eventually, they will monopolize the production of mutated fruits in Hongcheng, and then monopolize the market for nutritional mixtures.
At that time, it is not up to them, the federal businessmen, to decide what price the nutritional mixture should be sold for.
Now that he knew their plans, Jiang Chen would certainly not let them get what they wanted. He already had an idea in his mind, and a smile couldn't help but appear on his lips.
"A lot of money? Haha, I guarantee they will lose everything."
"It seems that you already have a countermeasure, so I'd better not show my shame." Hearing Jiang Chen say this, Zhao Chenwu also laughed.
"Of course there are countermeasures, but we need your cooperation."
"We are always waiting for the Marshal's orders!" (.)
