The riots surrounding food in the Yin City are still getting more intense, but the initiator of this situation does not feel any guilt at all.

On the other side of the sea, at a high-end cocktail party, Johnson was holding a red wine glass in his hand and chatting and laughing with others in a relaxed manner that had been rare in months.

In front of him, a variety of food was placed on a ring-shaped dining table that was dozens of meters long, ranging from grain-fed Wagyu beef steaks priced at tens of dollars per pound to specially flown from a tropical island. The rare fruits that came over all hinted at the high level of this cocktail party.

The man opposite him was named Bonn. He came from the white house and was one of the most famous intelligence experts in the country.

"So, the current situation is still under our control?"

Johnson asked.

"This is currently the case. Our work in Yindu is progressing very smoothly. Prices have begun to rise across the board. The domestic situation has become more urgent. Now, the Yindu government has begun to ask for help from us, hoping to obtain some food. Assistance came.”

"However, of course we will not give them food at this time - instead, we will give them some loans and let them buy food on the international market."

"Their gap is too big. Such purchases will soon push up international food prices completely. At that time, it will be time for us to start operating China."

Hearing Bonn's words, Johnson nodded slightly, and then continued to ask:

"I heard that there have been a lot of violent incidents in Yindu? Is this also under our control?"

"...Well, of course we are not directly involved in such a conflict, but like you said, everything is under control."

"Understood. What about China? What's the situation?"

Upon hearing this, Bonn put down the empty red wine in his hand and replied:

"Their resistance was very resolute. The release of 100 million tons of grain on the market has indeed stabilized grain prices to a large extent."

"However, China is now an isolated island. The prices in the peripheral market are like the tide, constantly trying to submerge their highland. Now the waves are getting higher and higher, and they cannot hold on for long."

"Are you sure? Judging from the public news I've seen, they don't seem to have any signs of collapse."

Johnson asked suspiciously.

This suspicion is not because he does not trust the source of the man in front of him, but because he has already felt the terrifying nature of this opponent in his previous encounters with China.

The other party will always come up with the optimal solution to the current situation in areas that you cannot predict and in unexplainable ways, causing your own plans to fail time and time again.

This has caused a serious psychological shadow on him, so in this food battle, he took every step cautiously, for fear that there would be a problem in one of the links, resulting in a total loss.

And now, just as he said, China's food prices have remained stable in recent times, and the short-lived panic buying has completely disappeared with the increase in food supply. Even the rumors about wheat viruses that we started to spread have disappeared. The rumors didn't spread at all.

From any angle, he did not see any signs of the so-called "seawater submerging the island".

Upon hearing Johnson's question, Bon reached out his hand, patted his shoulder lightly and said:

"Johnson, you seem to be a little too nervous recently. Maybe the previous failures have hit you too hard. But it doesn't matter. Believe me, this time we have mobilized all our strength to make the most meticulous arrange."

"I appreciate a Chinese proverb that says, 'Lions will give their best even when hunting rabbits.'"

"In the previous confrontations, this was the biggest mistake we made. Such a mistake caused us to almost completely lose the initiative, but fortunately, it was still not too late."

"Food is our strongest area. As long as we win this battle, we will get back all the things we lost before."

Bonn's expression was firm, but in Johnson's opinion, his words were not very convincing.

It seems that in every previous confrontation, before failure came, our so-called "professionals" said this?

He shook his head slightly, sighed and said:

"Bonn, I know your opinion is right, but I can't help but feel pessimistic. So, do we really not have any evidence to prove that their food barriers are about to collapse?"

Bonn thought for a moment and replied:

"Actually, there is."

"The first point is what you and I already know, about the strategy of releasing grain reserves. Although the other party claimed to their people that it was to replace old grain, this was actually their first response to our offensive. And the quantity of 100 million tons is basically approaching their limit.”

"Second point, the grains they put on the market have basically been purchased and hoarded by our agents in their country. We spent a lot of money in the process, but the results are equally satisfactory - According to our estimates, at least 50% of the newly released grains have entered our warehouses."

After hearing this, Johnson finally nodded with satisfaction.

This is the real good news.

In any market, controlling a commodity is equivalent to controlling the monopoly channel. If you can control more than 50% of the share in a market, it means that in this market, the price of a commodity will rise or fall. It can be completely controlled by this controller.

Especially when the product is an extremely needed product like food, the situation will become even more extreme.

He picked up a bottle of red wine from the dining table, poured half a glass of it for Bonn opposite him, then raised the glass to him and said:

"Then, let us wish this battle together to achieve a victory that completely reverses the situation."

In a small red building in China, a man in a Chinese tunic suit took the document handed over from the secretary and asked with a slightly sarcastic smile on his face:

"Is that all there is? Have you got the whole list?"

The secretary opposite nodded and replied:

"Basically, they have all been mobilized, and there are still some smaller companies. It is not yet clear whether they are following the trend of speculation, or whether they are cooperating with the four major grain merchants."

"However, we have also implemented surveillance on these companies, and if we find any abnormalities subsequently, we will immediately add them to the list."

"That's good. This time is a challenge, but it is indeed a rare opportunity. With the help of the other party's offensive, we can just take advantage of these yellow-skinned and white-hearted worms in the country who ignore the interests of our people and even deliberately harm the interests of the people. Find them all and try to catch them all."

"Understood, leader. All subsequent strategies have been arranged. As long as we wait until the results from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences come out, we can concentrate on fishing."

The man in Mao suit nodded solemnly and said in a serious tone:

"This operation is very important - I don't need to emphasize it any more. But what I want to say is that as long as we can win this battle, we can officially combine the four major elements of food, currency, energy and military. All the advantages are in your hands.”

"This is the most important battle, and it will most likely be our last battle with our opponent."

"If we win, then the situation between us and our opponents will completely change."

"We often say that offense and defense change shape, but this time, it is the key to offense and defense."

"Xiao Qin, you must follow this incident closely. This is a major historical event."

"Whether we can regain the glory of the Han and Tang Dynasties that belongs to our generation in this era will be within these three months."
