Chapter 289 Father and son confront each other and win the 2001 grain war

The Twin Towers of the World Trade Center are only 400 meters away from the National Stock Exchange.

Sitting by the window on the top floor of National Securities, Old Smith not only heard the loud noise, but also felt an unprecedented shock wave.

Had it not been for the bulletproof glass installed in the office, he would have been dead or disabled.

And this moment.

Time seemed to stand still and the entire Wall Street was completely quiet.

The next moment.

Screams, cracks, and sirens filled the city.

Then, another flight hit...

Screams, shattering sounds, and sirens could be heard all over the city.

"Fuck, they must be crazy!"

Old Smith suddenly wanted to escape from here.

But what is happening right now will definitely cause the US stock market to plummet.

After being stunned, he turned on the computer to perform relevant operations and contacted the family think tank.

Only four or five seconds later, the head of the family think tank stumbled in.

"Sir, after urgent analysis, it is estimated that in the next week, S&P, Dow Jones, and Nasdaq will plummet by 10%, and the stock markets in Tokyo, London, Paris, and Frankfurt will also plummet. And then there is the possibility that airlines Falling 30%."

Old Smith looked at the data on the computer screen, "Someone is shorting in advance, it should be Lao... damn, close the stock market for a week. After restarting, you should make response plans as soon as possible. If the decline cannot be stopped, then sacrifice some small industries, and then allocate all funds to save Nasdaq. After all, we are now in control of the pioneer."

"Are we going to give up on National Securities?"

"We have limited funds."

After Old Smith finished speaking, he suddenly understood Yu Yang's operation.

First, buy some of the old grain through the Klins, and then set up a trap to burn it yourself.

When food prices rise, there are only two choices in front of you.

The first is to continue burning, and the second is to snap up with the other party.

If the burning continues, food prices will remain high, causing economic turmoil. It is also possible that burning food everywhere will trigger fires in the Americas, leading to an overall reduction in North American food production.

If you rush to buy with the other party, you will definitely have to spend hundreds of billions of dollars. However, after the plane crashed into the building, the Smith family almost had to break 1 US dollar into 10 US dollars in order to maintain the financial economy. , and even have to find someone to borrow U.S. dollars to avoid a run on the stock market caused by the collapse of the stock market. When the time comes, how can the Smith family have the funds to buy food with Yu Sanyuan?

Moreover, the global stock market has plummeted, and the situation of the world's grain merchants is no different from that of the Smith family.

In this way, almost no one will rush to buy food from Sanyuan Agriculture.

No one is rushing to buy, Sanyuan Agriculture must stop buying.

Because by next month, many farmers who cannot sell their grain will become anxious and start selling. Sanyuan Agriculture can smoothly take over the purchase at ultra-low prices.

In the end, Sanyuan Agriculture became the biggest winner in the grain field this year.

"The question is, why did he know that the plane hit the building?"

"Is the old abbot of the Buddha Temple really that smart?"

Old Smith took a deep breath as he thought about this.

He suddenly remembered that he had asked Yu Sanyuan whether he should follow Lao Bu's suggestion and buy insurance for the World Trade Center Twin Towers.

Now that I think about it, it must have been that call that made the other party guess the sensational events that were about to happen today or in the near future.

But this brain is too scary?

However, the top priority is to stabilize the financial economy.

Instead of thinking about food issues.

···

Florida, Brooke Elementary School.

Xiaobu stayed away from Washington and was no longer exposed to capital struggles, and he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

At this moment, he is interacting with the children in the classroom in front of the ABC TV camera.

Let’s call it a political show.

This is when Card, his accompanying manager, suddenly received a call from Washington.

Kade walked out of the classroom and pressed the answer button.

"Mr. Card, just now, a plane crashed into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center."

"Oh? How big is the plane?"

"This... seems to be a small private company "Plane."

Kade frowned slightly and looked at Xiaobu in the classroom, thinking, should he tell the supervisor about this big deal?

But suddenly I felt that it was not reliable, "Please confirm."

After a while.

Washington called again, with a much more serious tone, "It's a civilian airliner, and there are two of them."

"Fuck!"

Kade cursed angrily. After picking up the phone, he quickly walked into the classroom and leaned into Xiaobu's ear, "Mr. Controller, two civil aviation companies have crashed into the World Trade Center Twin Towers. We are under attack."

Xiaobu was shocked when he heard the whisper. And at a loss.

Because the northern forest plan that Lao Bu described to him in the Gulf of Mexico some time ago was not like this at all.

Probably it means detonating the annex building of the World Trade Center Twin Towers - Building 5, because that is where the database is located, and then arranging an abandoned flight to hit the middle of the Pentagon, because that is where the backup database is located.

In other words, North America’s financial loopholes are related to the arms trade, involving ‘buying and selling short’.

Short buying: The North American Military Department submits a budget, Congress agrees to allocate funds, and then remits the funds to the defense contractor. The contractor does not need to produce, and after a period of time, the 'air' is delivered to the North American Military Department. The latter completes the reception.

Short selling: After receiving the 'air', the North American Military Department sold this batch of 'air-based weapons' to the Ice Bear Mafia in Afghanistan. The latter stated that they had received it and then completed this round of weapons. trading.

In this process, the military gets money, members of Congress who are involved in this matter and supervising the delivery work get money, defense contractors get a share of the money, and the Ice Bear Mafia can also get a part of the money.

In the end, everyone is happy.

Similar things have happened everywhere in the past decades or even hundreds of years.

This phenomenon is even more serious especially during war times.

But when a holiday comes back, the accounts must be done, otherwise the taxpayers will definitely not be willing.

There are more and more such accounts, but the actual armaments are getting less and less. Seeing that it is about to be no longer concealed, the best way is to burn the account books, so that there will be no proof.

So in this information age, destroying the database of World Trade Center Building 5 and the Pentagon's backup library has become the only way to settle the accounts.

Then Harden was dying and the Tully Group lost control, resulting in a shortage of white flour in the Afghan region, equivalent to a cessation of supply of 90% of the world's white flour, depriving many people in the military of a large sum of extra income.

And the Ice Bear Mafia was attacked inexplicably and thousands of tons of gold were lost.

In addition, with the support of Europe, European capital, and European Jewish capital, the euro is unscrupulously expanding eastward, and even intends to enter the East, posing an unprecedented threat to the U.S. knife market.

North America can frame the big news of "settling the accounts" on Harden, and then enter the Afghanistan region to recapture the wheat flour planting area and protect the gold mines, restore the original order in the Afghanistan region, and block the eastward march of the euro.

It can be said that it kills five birds with one stone.

It’s just that in North America, the Republican faction is not the only one, nor is it only the military that has bad debts.

So Old Bu communicated with Old Smith in the name of ‘buying insurance’.

The general meaning is that if you have a bad debt, you should take the opportunity to sell it off and let's hide the matter together.

This puts the democratic factions on the same boat.

However, what Xiao Bu never thought was that the gap between reality and ideal was that two civil aviation companies collided with the Twin Towers...

However, now is not the time to question Lao Bu, he needs to deal with this thing.

The problem is, Xiaobu suddenly found that without his father's guidance, he didn't know how to deal with it.

But what is certain is that North America is indeed under attack.

"Go to New York!"

"Mr. Xiaobu, we must ensure your safety."

"No, I want to go to New York immediately and declare war on them!"

Some time ago, he rejected David Ensig's proposal to block the Klins' purchase of grain. The news media of the democratic faction suddenly changed their tone overnight and began to ridicule him, the North American manager.

Not only did he say that he was too soft on the East during the high-performance MiG-25 cheek-to-cheek incident, he also revealed that he evaded joining the army and hid in the Texas National Guard, saying that he was a softie.

Against this background, if we are not tough today, we may step down tomorrow.

"Mr. Xiao Bu, you'd better write your speech first, otherwise if you say the wrong thing at the messy scene, it may cause irreversible negative effects."

Old Bu The think tank given to Xiao Bu is quite reliable.

Whether Xiaobu answers or not, after giving the other party a task that must be done, he directly clears a classroom and conducts urgent discussions.

At the same time, contact Air Ministry No. 1, the doomsday plane, and be prepared to fly in the sky for 72 hours.

Because North America is under attack, no one can guarantee that the White House in Washington is safe.

As for going to New York...

Who knows if Xiao Bu will be killed by Old Smith when he goes to the Astor family's territory.

Before Lao Bu and Lao Smith reach an agreement, Xiao Bu will definitely not be able to go to New York.

A long time.

The think tank finally made a plan, which was to ground all flights. Even those flying in the sky must make an emergency landing in Canada, otherwise they will all be shot down.

Then the North American Air Force was notified to let the fighter planes take off to protect North America.

I never expected that the North American Air Force was on regular vacation, and in the entire eastern part of North America, only 4 fighters could take off...

“Fuck!”

Xiaobu finally Started to panic and feel uneasy.

I finally understand why the high-performance MiG-25 has been close to Reagan several times, but Lao Bu did not dare to go head-to-head with Sanyuan Agriculture.

Let me ask you, if you can’t even defend against ruthless attacks, how can you defend against the high-altitude bomb drops of the high-performance MiG-25 and the low-altitude penetration of the high-performance J11B?

Soon.

The doomsday plane arrives at a military base in North America.

On the way here, Xiaobu already knew that the Pentagon had also been attacked, and that another one had crashed in the suburbs. He contacted Washington, "Which (ruthless gang) did it?"

"It's all possible."

"···"

Xiao Bu was silent for a long time, found an encrypted anti-eavesdropping room, and contacted Lao Bu.

"Why? This is not your plan for the boreal forest!"

Lao Bu, who has returned to Texas, heard his son's question and said calmly: "This is the information age, especially the emergence of graphics card matrices. The storage form of important data is no longer limited to floppy disks and hard disks.

I said before, what I want to destroy is the Building 5 database and the Pentagon's backup database. < br>
And destroying the World Trade Center will not help North America's huge financial holes.

So, this has nothing to do with my plan.

My North American manager, you. What we need to do now is to investigate the identity of the attacker, find the mastermind, and then start a war.”

Faced with such an answer, Xiao Bu became even more certain that his father planned everything.

Because every time when dealing with important matters, the other party's demeanor and tone will become cold and ruthless.

Suddenly, he suddenly remembered Yu’s complaint that the intelligence system eavesdropped from Shiliying: The bottom class in North America is just a kind of consumables, and the capitalists will not care about their life and death, so we must make the capitalists feel threatened, and they will Fear will be truly experienced.

Xiaobu understood.

The more those consumables die, the bigger the trouble will be.

He will also be able to enter the Afghan region more smoothly.

···

Texas.

Old Bu looked at the encrypted communicator that his son had hung up on, shook his head slightly, and expressionlessly contacted the demolition team of the database in Building 5 to let them implement the plan.

"Mr. Bu, the explosive device has been installed, but reporters are everywhere on the scene. We can't blow up this building in front of the whole world, right?"

"This is not something you should consider, and afterwards, there will be experts who will explain everything."

"Yes!"

The next moment.

Building 5, about 200 meters away from the World Trade Center Twin Towers, collapsed suddenly in the eyes of countless people at the scene.

···

Beijing.

ADM Special Research Group.

Dongfang Head Office reached a settlement with Old Smith. Dongfang received 100 billion U.S. debt, and Pioneer Pilot received more than 800 billion in red banknotes and the qualification to invest in large government-owned enterprises. Subsequently, the two parties cooperated to jointly repel European capital and European Jewish capital. , which temporarily stabilized the Eastern currency market.

Lao Ren, the team leader, finally breathed a sigh of relief.

But after Sanyuan Agriculture changed its leadership in name, the corporate strategy suddenly became extremely radical, directly turning from defense to offense to plan for the North American grain market, which made Lao Ren frightened.

It's not that he's timid.

But the foreign exchange stocks in the entire East are not as good as the idle funds of the Smith family.

Not to mention other world grain merchants such as Cargill and Bunge.

With the little funds in hand, Sanyuan Agriculture went out to bid with others to buy grain. In Lao Ren’s view, it was not only unreliable, but it might also be counterattacked by the huge capital, causing the Dongfang that it was snatching away. The pricing power of soybeans and Oriental corn was easily snatched away by foreign capital.

The problem is, Yu Yang doesn’t listen to him.

"The situation was originally very good. As long as we consolidate the Amur Farm and the projects in the four southern provinces, Sanyuan Agriculture can survive this year safely. Why did you suddenly stop?"

Old Ren lit up a cigarette with a sad face. .

Suddenly, the assistant hurried into the office, "Boss, look at the overseas news."

"What happened?"

"Crash! The World Trade Center Twin Towers were hit by a plane. ”

"???"

Old Ren quickly turned on the TV and switched to the overseas channel.

No need to search, real-time news channels from various countries are all reporting on what New York is going through.

The fire was spewing thick smoke into the sky, and the dust covered the entire Manhattan area. Many desperate Shimao workers jumped from floors hundreds of meters high...

Old When Ren saw this scene, even though he had a lot of experience and experience, there was still a chill in his heart.

Because if this kind of thing happens to any country, it is a huge disaster.

Its influence far exceeds cruel war.

Then he thought of Yu Yang's strategy of turning defense into offense and planning the North American grain market.

Obviously, the U.S. stock market is about to plummet, and Old Smith will definitely do his best to rescue the market. He simply cannot spend too much money to compete with Sanyuan Agriculture.

In this way, Sanyuan Agriculture easily won the unwinnable food war.

‘Oh my god, how did he predict this? ’

‘Could it be that the old abbot of the Buddha Temple really has the ability to predict the future? ’

Old Ren thought about it, quickly put on his coat, and went straight to his superior’s location to report on his work.

···

Shiliying, International Conference Center.

On the huge screen, the scene was being broadcast through the camera in Old Smith's office.

After two impacts and the collapse of Building 5, the scene was already quite chaotic.

Relying on the structure of the twin buildings he investigated in advance and combined with the on-site conditions, Yu Yang finally understood why the two buildings collapsed vertically after two hours.

This involves architecture.

Current high-rise buildings are mainly divided into shear wall structures and frame-shear wall structures.

The so-called shear wall is actually a wall in the form of four L-shaped load-bearing columns in the middle, forming a 'mouth' with intervals on the four sides. Then on this basis, like a string of leaves, it is built upward layer by layer. This resulted in the formation of high-rise buildings.

Therefore, most of the exterior walls of buildings with shear wall structures only have partition functions and can be dismantled.

However, the edges of the leaves have limited load-bearing capacity, which results in a small area on each floor, making it difficult to build a large apartment.

Therefore, on the basis of the shear wall structure, a frame is set up on the outer circle, like the word "Hui", so that the area of ​​each floor can be expanded outward.

These two structures are almost the safest in the current field of high-rise buildings.

The Empire State Building next to the World Trade Center Twin Towers uses a similar structure and has been problem-free for almost a century.

But in the 1960s, during the most prosperous stage of real estate in North America, there were always people who liked innovation.

Such as steel structure.

Engineers believe that replacing shear walls with large amounts of steel will definitely be more stable than cement.

So the Empire State Building used 4,000 tons of steel.

The World Trade Center Twin Towers used a total of 78,000 tons.

The steel structure at that time was completely different from the steel structure today, and the quality of the steel was not as good as it is now.

Without concrete support, the steel structure cannot withstand high temperature baking.

So after the plane hit the building, it broke off the 'return'-shaped outer ring, and then poured aviation fuel into the inner ring. At this time, the steel material of the inner ring instead of the shear wall structure was baked at high temperature, even if It doesn't melt, it just softens, and it will be like "chopsticks filled with heavy leaves. After the chopsticks soften, the leaves stack downwards", causing the entire skyscraper to collapse downwards.

Yu Yang concluded and ordered Pingdong Science and Technology Bureau to divide the report into two.

One copy is sent to North America to warn the other party.

A publication was published on three major Internet portals, stating that the steel used in Wadao was fake and that there was a 90% chance that the Twin Towers would collapse vertically. .

···

NSA was the first to receive a warning from the Pingdong Science and Technology Bureau.

After a brief analysis, he quickly informed New York of the possibility of stack collapse.

New York contacted the rescue system, who took the report and looked at the floors that the fire escape could not reach...

Finally stuffed the report into his pocket.

Because it can’t be saved.

··

Two hours later.

The twin towers collapsed vertically.

The fraud of Wadao Steel has once again become the focus of the world.

Even people in North America believe that if the inferior steel from Japan had not been used, the Twin Towers would not have collapsed at all.

Three days later.

Xiao Bu arrived in New York and started his political performance standing on the ruins.

A week later.

The NSA, Five Eyes Alliance and other intelligence agencies determined that Harden ordered the plane to hit the building.

September 25th.

Except for Iraq, all countries in the world, including Cuba, etc., support North American anti-terrorism.

···

at the same time.

As the US stock market plummeted, North American grain prices, which continued to rise, finally fell sharply.

Because the new grain has been available for less than half a month, but there is still no one to buy it.

Even if ADM, Cargill, and Bunge are willing to accept it, they will only give bonds.

This makes it completely unacceptable for farmers who have suffered serious losses in stock trading and are in urgent need of cash to cover and close their positions.

For this reason, the farmers had to find the Klins.

The Klins, who were supposed to be rushing to buy food, are now sitting firmly in the joint office of 32 companies. "Sorry, we won't collect it anymore."

"Why?"

“Food prices in South America are lower.”

“We are even lower than those in South America!”
