People in the Republic of China era began to rise from industry.

The trip to Hong Kong lasted seven days.

When Lin Yi took the train from Guangzhou back to Shanghai, it was exactly midnight.

"Mr. Lin."

Jing Zhizhong and Liu Jing were there to pick them up.

The two people who had been keeping a close eye on the platform saw Lin Yi and ran over in a flash.

"Hard."

Lin Yi shook hands with the two men and then inquired about their current situation.

With Tony secured and distribution channels secured, Lin Yi no longer needed to worry about the rest of this price war.

So he took some time to go to Hong Kong and made proper arrangements for Lin Andao.

Uncle Nan went with him.

However, after leaving Hong Kong, he said he was going to visit some old friends, and that's when the two parted ways.

Lin Yi knew that Uncle Nan had probably gone to the red zone to deliver medicine.

Accompanied by two henchmen, the three of them carried six large suitcases, all filled with the latest type of anti-inflammatory drug, Prontosil.

At that moment, Lin Yi almost couldn't resist stopping Uncle Nan.

Our own pharmaceutical factory will soon be producing this medicine.

In a normal transaction, the underground party would have as much as they wanted as long as they paid.

There's no need to go all the way to Hong Kong to make deals.

Hearing Lin Yi ask, Jing Zhizhong chuckled: "It's a mess, a complete mess."

"The docks were out of stock for three days in a row."

"Two boats finally arrived the day before yesterday, but they were all looted in less than an hour."

"The most chaotic market is the secondary market. There are too many people buying now. Even though Lao Liu arranged for a few people to rush around, they only managed to grab two thousand tons."

"This was only after the price increased by another five points."

Hearing this, Lin Yi's eyes lit up: "It's a ship from Japan?"

"Yes, the two ships weigh over 8,000 tons. The Japanese are really wealthy."

Jing Zhizhong exclaimed in admiration.

During this period, he and Liu Jing were in charge of this matter and had gained considerable knowledge of industrial alkali.

Before Yongli first announced the price of 560, the market price of one ton of industrial alkali fluctuated between 780 and 820.

But now, the price has dropped to 180 yuan.

Eight thousand tons of goods, even if each ton is reduced by six hundred, that's still four million eight hundred thousand.

He didn't know the cost of the Japanese goods. Even if he set the selling price at 20% above the cost, he would still lose a huge loss of four million.

This doesn't even include the 60,000 tons of cargo that were released in installments beforehand.

Although the price dropped from 310 to 180.

However, he and Liu Jing stockpiled more than 50,000 tons, and the final average purchase price was only 220.

At this price, in less than half a month, the Japanese will lose at least 30 million!

Without a solid financial foundation, who could withstand this?

"Heh, you've got a really stubborn head."

Lin Yi made a sarcastic remark.

The fact that the goods were first cut off and then shipped again can only mean that the Japanese wanted to find out the final destination of the goods and prove their innocence.

Unfortunately, they made a wrong move.

The three-day stockout has only added fuel to the fire in the market.

This directly triggered a buying frenzy in the secondary market.

However, he hadn't anticipated this; at best, it was a lucky accident.

"By the way, do you know who these people are competing with us for goods in the secondary market?"

“There were people from Nanjing who came to Tianjin and Beijing, as well as people from Shanghai. In addition, there were some compradors from foreign firms.”

Liu Jing was well-informed.

These people were his competitors in the secondary market, so he quickly investigated the situation as soon as it arose.

Unlike his attempts to conceal his true intentions, these people charged forward shirtless.

It's not difficult to find out.

"A foreign firm?"

Lin Yi couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.

"Yes, it's because they're rich and powerful that they're driving up prices, otherwise we wouldn't have only bought two thousand tons."

Liu Jing looked mournful, then cautiously said, "Mr. Lin, we're out of stock again yesterday and today."

"Judging from the situation, it seems unlikely that anyone will ship any more goods in the near future."

"The problem now is that we haven't spent all our money."

"How much did it cost?"

"More than 11 million, and there are still more than 3 million in the account."

The overall purchase price was much lower than expected.

Therefore, Lin Yi did not touch his own money at all.

He simply gave Liu Jing the 15 million he had previously swindled in installments.

How much stock do we have now?

"Just over 53,000 tons."

Lin Yi quickly calculated in his mind.

At the price he promised Tony, all 53,000 tons were sold, resulting in a profit of nearly 15 million.

With a principal of 20 million, the profit margin is 75%.

It was a bit worse than I expected, but it's still acceptable.

He split the loot and made a net profit of nearly five million.

To earn so much in such a short period, if the partners were truly interested, they should be calling them "daddy."

Thinking about all this, Lin Yi smiled and said, "It's alright, let's leave it at that."

"The next step is to arrange for people to guard the warehouse, for fire prevention and theft prevention."

"It should be ready to ship in a few days."

The situation has become obvious.

Foreign firms went on a buying spree, but that damned International Alkali Industry Alliance had already gone bankrupt.

At this point, Tony had even fewer concerns.

They quickly sold off their shares, divided the profits, and then raised more funds to speculate on the stock price of Xinca in the United States.

We won't stop until we've made two somersaults and accelerated the hollowing out of American industry!

……

A week has passed in the blink of an eye.

Tony was being irresponsible, rejecting Lin Yi's proposal to ship everything from Shanghai by sea.

They proactively paid for the freight, secured a large number of train cars, and diverted them to Guangzhou, Tianjin, and Lin'an for loading onto ships.

They secretly transported away 20,000 tons.

Fortunately, the payment was made quickly, and the goods were handed over in several warehouses. The Citibank draft of 26.8 million was delivered to Pier No. 3 that day.

Lin Yi specially prepared champagne and celebrated enthusiastically before seeing the person off.

Back in his office, Lin Yi was about to call the Sheng Mansion to invite Miss Sheng Qi to come and share the spoils, and also to praise himself.

Fan Zhongxu and Tang Side arrived.

Both of them looked ugly.

Seeing their disheveled appearance, Lin Yi hung up the phone and laughed, "You two, did you lose your wallets?"

Hearing Lin Yi's joke, Tang Side gave a wry smile: "Chairman Lin, one good news and two bad news."

"The good news first."

"The good news is that we just received news that the industrial alkali industry association formed by foreigners has been dissolved, and our price war has also ended."

Lin Yi nodded seriously: "Great news!"

"What about the bad news?"

"The first thing is that before they disbanded, they reached an agreement, just as we expected, that Wynn's goods could not leave China."

"The second point is that our domestic industrial alkali inventory is already saturated to the point of being unsaturated."

"At least for the next two years, we're afraid we won't be able to sell a single one of our goods in China."

"So, Chairman Lin, should we halt our capacity expansion for now?"

Downstreet looked miserable.

Although the news was all bad as expected, he had been so worried that he hadn't slept well for more than ten days.

Hearing these two pieces of false information, Lin Yi held back his laughter.

"Old Tang, how much has the alkali plant shipped out recently?"

"We have sold over 100 tons of goods, and we have another 300 tons of orders that we haven't had time to produce yet."

"On average, the price is about 360 yuan per ton, so we didn't lose much money."

Downs said listlessly.

The market prices are insane, so insane that everyone is hoarding Japanese goods.

It's not that they don't support Wynn.

Lin Yi had strictly ordered that the goods be sold at a loss in accordance with market prices, but the customers simply wouldn't accept it.

These four hundred tons were acquired with great difficulty at the beginning.

As for Yongli Industrial Alkali, after deducting the value of the raw materials produced by the fertilizer plant, the cost per ton is less than 400 yuan.

With over 400 tons of goods, the total loss was less than 1,300 yuan.

At this point, Downstreet didn't know whether to be pleased or saddened.

Lin Yi was also aware of this.

So when he heard the number four hundred tons, his lips twitched twice, and he burst into hearty laughter...
