342 Counting poison but starving
Li Guoliang felt instantly inspired. He believed that he, a "professional", had the obligation to popularize some knowledge for Zhou Wenqiang.
"People in the Golden Triangle are used to growing poppy. They are familiar with this plant as they are familiar with their hands and feet. They only need to look at the weather to know how the harvest this year. Although the price is lower than cannabis, the Southeast Asian market obviously welcomes opium and heroin. This is a fact that has been verified for more than ten years. Do you think it can be changed by saying changes?"
"Also, Luo Xinghan and Ms. Yang Er have only started trying to grow marijuana in the past two years, hoping to diversify the products and improve their competitiveness. It seems not very smooth at the moment. In Mexico, in the Lighthouse Country, and in Europe, local gangs have already had a mature supply and marketing network, and they are wary of the Golden Triangle for not only one or two days. The marijuana we grow now has to use the sales network of the ‘Silver Triangle’ region. After they stripped off a layer of profit, the income is not as good as growing poppy. I have even decided not to grow marijuana next year!"
"That's it?"
Zhou Wenqiang looked at Li Guoliang and shook his head secretly. He was content with the status quo as a drug lord. He had such a short-sighted look. The Taiwanese side was all like this, no wonder they lost the mainland. Li Guoliang was like this. I guess Luo Xinghan and Miss Yang Er were not much better. None of the three giants in the post-Li Mi era had become a weapon, but it was easier for him to do it.
"Habits are very powerful, of course I know this, but I have the best way to change habits here, that is 'survival'."
Zhou Wenqiang smiled faintly and said, "When survival problems occur, let alone changing to marijuana, even if the people from the Golden Triangle change to human-eating flowers, they can only do it obediently."
"You might be the 'farmer' in the Golden Triangle, right? Brother Zhou, even if you and Lao Han are friends of age, I will not help you. This is too stupid."
Li Guoliang suspected that Han Jingshan was blind. Is this the generation of heroes he mentioned?
A great man? No shit! I don’t know the time, no place, no people’s harmony!
He thought where is the Golden Triangle? He thought that the people here were all simple old farmers? Do he know that even drug lords like Luo Xinghan, who had guns of thousands of people, would never dare to incite the "farmers" in the Golden Triangle.
If he knew that in addition to common fertilizers in the poppy field, there was also a particularly effective "human fat", he might have changed his mind. The source of these human fats is those guys who broke into the Golden Triangle without knowing the height of the sky and the earth, just like him, the Chief Inspector of Hong Kong Island, the unparalleled god of war.
Jiang Zhen and Xiang Qian's wine were half awake again, and they looked at Zhou Wenqiang excitedly and nervously. They were not Li Guoliang, and they knew Mr. Zhou too much, so they would not think that Zhou Wenqiang was a stick.
On the contrary, the two bigwigs sensed keenly that they might witness a great miracle, a new golden triangle.
As long as they think about the Kowloon Walled City that has become Kowloon Mall, they will be full of confidence in Zhou Wenqiang.
"I never thought about forcing anyone, because that's not the best way. Even if the other party bows his head for a moment due to the situation, he will sooner or later show his fangs to you. I'm not that stupid yet."
Zhou Wenqiang shook his head and said, "There are two solutions for those who are unwilling to obey. One is to kill him directly and solve it once and for all; the second is to use the environment to change him, guide him, and let him willingly walk on the path you planned in advance."
"The biggest problem in the Golden Triangle is actually not choosing poppy or marijuana, but the most fundamental thing you have forgotten when you make money from drugs, food! You actually planted all the land with drugs but did not plant some life-saving food. Isn't this stupidity?"
"At this time, my people should have started to contact the commercial and agricultural officials of the three countries of Thailand, Laos and Myanmar, and will buy a large amount of food using conditions they cannot refuse. Yes, these foods account for at least 90% of the total food exported by the Three Kingdoms! Next, I will also capture all the food exported by Southeast Asian countries! If the people in the Golden Triangle don't want to go hungry, they may have to cross the ocean to import food from Europe and the United States..."
"food?"
After hearing Zhou Wenqiang's words, Li Guoliang was like a cat with a trampled tail, and he was furious at the time: "Impossible! You are bluffing, you can't eat so much food at all!"
If you have food in your hands, you will not panic; if you have no food in your hands, you will lose your claim.
Food is the most sensitive topic in any era.
This era is not only the mainland, but even the lighthouse countries lack high-yield grain varieties. Asia's largest granary is Southeast Asian countries. However, some countries have been in war and low productivity, and the grain they can export is very limited.
The Golden Triangle area is not large, but it has a population of more than 100,000 square kilometers and a population of nearly one million. They control a large area of fertile land, but only a very small part of the land has been planted with grain.
If it is really as Zhou Wenqiang said, if all the exported food from Southeast Asian countries is captured in one go, the Golden Triangle will starve people to death!
When Li Guoliang thought of the hungry and red-eyed farmers in every family, he felt distressed.
"Captain Li, although Taiwan has all kinds of bad things to you and is almost abandoned, your roots are in the mainland, and I believe you have some attention to the current situation of the mainland? I think you shouldn't have seen the changes in the mainland in the past two years. If I estimate it is good, the mainland will face a food crisis in a year. If you are not lucky and encounter natural disasters again, it will be an unprecedented disaster!"
Zhou Wenqiang was very serious and had no intention of joking: "Fortunately, China has never lacked knowledgeable people. Some people have seen future crises. Due to various reasons, it is not convenient for them to come forward, and I am more convenient. You should know how big the mainland is and how many people there are. We must trust our determination. In the next few years, we will stock up on all costs! In the next three to five years, the Golden Triangle should not think that we can buy food, because no matter how much money you pay, it will definitely not be as good as our "big customer". If I, the "big customer", proposes an exclusive purchase and are not allowed to export food to the Golden Triangle again, what will happen?"
"Are you helping the mainland stockpile food?"
Li Guoliang felt cold in his heart, and it kept cold to the soles of his feet: "You can't do this, it's going to kill people! I'm not kidding!"
This move is too poisonous, and it’s not enough to eliminate food!
Xiang Qian and Jiang Zhen were completely stunned when they heard this. They looked at Zhou Wenqiang blankly, "Big Boss, do you want to play so big?" Everyone in the Golden Triangle is all crazy. If you play like this, the consequences are really unimaginable.
