Chapter 2423 Thunder

Regarding the current economic situation and development, Xiao Xu put forward two opinions and suggestions.

The first one is about ecological agriculture, this one is not in a hurry, there is still a lot of time to observe and test slowly.

Only when the technology matures, the output increases, and people's income level increases, will it be time to decide whether it needs to be promoted on a large scale across the country.

In fact, national promotion is not very realistic, because the land in many places is no longer suitable for farming, or for industrial and urban development needs.

Only the economically underdeveloped areas can really be used as a land of fish and rice.

For example, since ancient times, the two lakes basins of "Huguang is ripe, the world is full"... Well, the Huguang here does not refer to the two provinces of Lake and Guangxi, but the Xiangshui River and the north of Hunan at that time were called Huguang.

For example, Shuchuan, which has been known as the land of abundance since ancient times, such as the Kunlun area where a large area of ​​land has not been developed, and the three eastern provinces where oil can be squeezed out from a handful of black soil.

These areas are suitable for farming.

If you want to become a real agricultural power, it doesn't matter how much land you have, but how much food you can grow and how much good food you can grow.

If these places can be intensively cultivated, then the food security of Huaguo will be greatly improved.

For Laos, Myanmar, and Vietnam, which are adjacent to China, the capital agreed to Xiao Xu's plan to allow Fairy Company to conduct large-scale farming experiments here. While accumulating experience, it is also a good way to further control their national agriculture.

If we can make good use of the land in these three countries, I dare not say too much, at least one-fifth of China's food consumption will be enough-don't forget, these three countries with tropical and subtropical monsoon climates In the country, it is easy to harvest rice twice a year, and there are not a few places where rice is harvested three times a year.

The country is not interested in eating this piece of meat, because agricultural production involves many aspects. If the country invests in these places in the name of the country, it will easily cause panic among others, but it will be different if the Fairy Company comes forward. This is a company behavior, and it is completely feasible.

As for the matter of buying a large amount of food. That's even less of a problem.

No matter how poor a country's financial reserves are, it is impossible to be short of money to buy food. If any country really has no money to buy rice, then it must not be long before its collapse.

Besides, in the poor countries of Southeast Asian countries, especially the countries adjacent to China, their own currencies are not very stable, and US dollars are not the best to use. The best and most stable currency is RMB.

The Burmese merchants and farmers like to collect RMB the most, because they can buy daily necessities when they get it on the border, and it is very good to take it back to the country whether it is used by themselves or sold.

Fairy Company uses RMB to pay various expenses, and the government uses RMB to buy food instead of US dollars... In this case, um, it seems that it will not cost much, right?

Leaving aside this thing that needs to be seen in the long run.

Xiao Xu's second suggestion. The debate triggered is very intense, but this does not prevent the country from taking action in the first place.

what action?

That's naturally a big knife to the fiery antique market!

Not to mention how much money the small and medium-sized factory owners have invested, not to mention how much the common people like the feeling of getting rich overnight. As long as the country feels that this is an act of destroying the real economy. Then you can start directly.

Regarding this point, both parties in the debate have no opinion. In the severe financial situation, this kind of extravagance is not good, and it is good to deal with it.

It was still the beginning of the People's Daily. They first published a commentator's article, criticizing the malicious behavior of hyping up antiques, and criticizing the behavior of manufacturing fakes to make ordinary people lose their money...

Then it was the turn of each channel of CCTV, interview programs one by one. One after another, the commentary programs also pointed their finger at the antique market.

Now many people will understand immediately. The situation in the antique market was not good, and the smart people quickly withdrew.

But only a small number of people are willing to withdraw from this fiery market, and as a result, all the rest have encountered the most severe restrictions.

"It is forbidden to maliciously raise the price of antiques."

"It is forbidden to buy and sell precious cultural relics at will."

"Welcome to complain about private transactions and tax evasion."

"All auction companies must set reasonable prices, and hype is not allowed."

"Aiming at irregular auction companies, severely investigate, shut down, and arrest the person directly in charge."

"Clean up antique markets and processing markets in various places, and punish those who make and sell counterfeit goods with the maximum penalty."

"..."

One after another orders were issued directly from the government. Teams of personnel from industry and commerce, public security, urban management, quality inspection... and other departments walked in the streets and alleys of various places, carrying out the strictest investigation. All kinds of irregular behaviors in the antique market.

If you want to say that in Huaguo, the business of buying and selling antiques is not so regulated. If the country turns a blind eye, it will pass.

But now that the country wants to seriously investigate, it will naturally cause a huge wave.

More than 200 antique markets were ordered to rectify or close down, more than 1,000 counterfeiting dens were swept away, more than 2,000 irregular auction companies were reported and investigated, and more than 10,000 people directly responsible were arrested...

In just a few days, the domestic antique market has cooled down considerably.

The most direct manifestation is that the crowded antique streets in the past have directly reduced the number of people by 80%. In many cases, there are more people setting up stalls on the street than walking on the road.

The major auction companies that have not been investigated and dealt with are also deserted for a while. After all, it is impossible for them to raise gimmicks and raise prices, so many antique owners are not willing to find them for auction, and antiques that fail to sell are everywhere. .

There are also those small and medium-sized business owners who are actively investing money in. They were scared to death. On the one hand, they hurriedly put the funds back. And I thought about how to continue to run my own factory.

After all, they entered the antique market just for the wealth effect.

When the wealth effect is not there, and their capital will be devoured instead, these people will never dare to invest their hard-earned money in it.

Even Yang Xue's antique shop, business has plummeted recently, only half of the average level in the first half of May. This is all thanks to the large number of people on Laoba Road and the good reputation of Yang Xue's antique shop. Otherwise, it would not be surprising to directly reduce it to 20-30%.

For this reason, Yang Xue called Xiao Qi and asked if he still wanted to buy raw materials and other antiques.

Xiao Qi naturally didn't hesitate, so he could prepare and set off in June for nationwide purchases.

Now that Xiao Qi said so, Yang Xue himself felt at ease to continue to complete his loan of 2 billion RMB, and also to follow suit.

actually. Xiao Qi knows that the heating up of the antique market is an inevitable law.

Just like the ups and downs of the stock market, the antique market also has a cycle of ups and downs. This is the general trend, and no one can stop it.

When people live well and have money in their hands, they naturally like to make some investments.

People in our country still agree with the saying "gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times". If you have money, you can buy one or two antiques, which can preserve and appreciate in value, and can also be passed on to the next generation. It's better than money.

The purpose of the state to suppress the antique market now is not to target the antique market. It is aimed at the hot money flowing into the antique market. These hot money all come from the real economy, and the real economy is taken out to speculate on antiques. Of course, the country does not allow it.

Once the small and medium-sized owners have collected the money back and continued their own production through various preferential measures of the state, then why does the state still hold on to the antique market?

And now we are severely cracking down on irregularities in the antique market. After a year or so, the market will become more and more regulated. There are fewer fakes, and the prices are not so inflated... This time is just the best time for ordinary people to enter the market. The antique market is bound to usher in a boom!

Therefore, Xiao Qi did not change his original intention of buying antiques at all. He knew that many people who own antiques will understand after a while, so if you don’t take advantage of the current panic in the antique market to buy good antiques, don’t you wait until the price resets in the future? It's too expensive to buy again?

When it comes to antiques and raw materials, Xiao Qi actually prefers raw materials.

For example, jadeite, agate, bloodstone, Tianhuangshi, suet jade, mahogany, huanghuali, sandalwood... etc. These are the real good things.

Porcelain and other things are afraid of being dropped when you put them at home, calligraphy and paintings are afraid of being corroded and moth-eaten, and bronze statues are afraid of fading... Anyway, there are many things to worry about.

These raw materials are different, they can be used to make accessories, practical furniture, cultural toys and so on.

Xiao Qi himself took a lot of jadeite and suet jade, carved and polished them into various accessories, and distributed them to his wives. Even little Taylor, who has always liked fashion, happily often wore her jadeite jewelry at home. She looked very beautiful, and Qian Niu felt a burst of envy when she saw it.

Chen Yulian took a lot of sandalwood and went to old craftsmen to carve Buddha statues, beads, etc. When she worshiped the Buddha, she also took them back to the old people at home, which won a lot of praise and praise.

The set of desks and chairs that Xiao Xu now uses at home is made of high-quality huanghuali. Xiao Qi didn't dare to discuss the price with his father, but Xiao Xu himself knew that they were at least tens of millions of things.

Xiao Xu also likes to write some calligraphy. The brushes, ink, paper and inkstones he uses are also top-notch. I dare not say that they are compared with Lord Qianlong, but at least they are used by princes and nobles.

Xiao Xu is also very happy about this, after all, he is quite happy to use good things for his hobbies.

Anyway, my son has money, so he doesn't need to treat himself badly if he uses some good things.

It's really uncomfortable and wasteful to buy good things and save them for use.

Like Xiao Qi is doing now, buying good raw materials and using them for his family and himself is the quality of life! (to be continued ~^~)
