Traveling through 70's wine

Chapter 268 Self-Reliance

Wen Qing had never brought anyone to stay in the space for a long time, but she had raised chickens and rabbits in the space. Although these animals were released now, they were still living well in the space, so there should be no problem. A few years ago, when she rescued people, she also put Uncle Gu into the space for a short time, and nothing happened. However, to be cautious, she still wanted to try again.

Wen Qing first bought a dog and named him Maotuan. Maotuan is a Husky with a gentle temperament and a high IQ among dogs, but he is a little active.

At night, she quietly brought the sleeping Husky into the space hut. Maotuan woke up when he arrived at the space hut. He first looked around vigilantly, stood up and sniffed around, then quickly ran out of the bamboo building, ran around outside, returned to the bamboo building, rubbed against Wen Qing's legs, and called to her twice, as if asking: "Master, where is this?"

It circled around her twice and then ran out, looking back at her as it ran, motioning for her to follow. Wen Qing followed it out and saw the fur ball walk out of the bamboo forest and come to the edge of the endless fields. It ran and sniffed around, then urinated behind a tree next to the rice field, marking its territory.

Wen Qing saw that Maotuan's condition was the same as outside, so she took it out of the space again.

Maotuan felt a little dizzy when he saw the environment suddenly changed again. He smelled the familiar smell of the doghouse and continued to sleep.

Wen Qing looked at Shanshan sleeping in the crib, and something suddenly occurred to her. She put the bed and the child into the space, and they appeared in the bedroom of the small bamboo house.

She stared at the child nervously, and felt relieved when she saw that his face was rosy, his breathing was normal, his little fists were clenched beside his head, and he was sleeping soundly.

After watching for a while, Wen Qing calmed down and began to practice. What she didn't know was that every time she breathed, the baby seemed to feel something, and his breathing gradually became consistent with Wen Qing's.

After she finished her training, she took the crib out of the space and fell asleep. Pregnancy and childbirth still had some effects on her, but as she resumed her training, she quickly returned to her pre-pregnancy state.

Yang Jiesheng comes here once every two months on average. The last time he hurried back was mainly because the stock of gold jewelry was sold out, and the head office in Gangcheng refused to ship the goods, saying that the types of goods they requested were not correct. He flew back to coordinate and explained the sales situation in the mainland from many aspects. He then rushed back to Gangcheng overnight and found Old Master Yang to report the matter, and only then did Gangcheng continue to supply the goods.

Although the other party resumed supply, Yang Jiesheng was very angry and secretly found out the reason. It turned out that it was his cousin, Old Master Yang's youngest son, who was behind it. He saw that the domestic market was developing too well and wanted to deceive him, preferably to replace him.

Wen Qing suggested that he establish his own purchasing channels to avoid being strangled. Gold shops like his can generally apply for gold import permits. He can import gold raw materials and find people to process them in China.

Wen Qing suggested that he set up a jewelry design studio in Pengcheng to do both design and production. The land price in the port city is expensive and the personnel expenses are high. In the future, many factories will gradually move to Pengcheng.

Yang Jiesheng agreed with her point of view. Foreign investment in Pengcheng is not very enthusiastic now. The government also attaches great importance to attracting investment and offers good conditions. The two decided to take advantage of the low land prices in Pengcheng. Yang Jiesheng put out 100 million yuan and Wen Qing put out 300 million yuan, accounting for 40% and 60% respectively, and built a gold jewelry processing factory by themselves.

This processing plant was built in an area of ​​Pengcheng close to the port city. The factory covers an area of ​​10 acres and has three two-story buildings with offices, design rooms, workshops, warehouses, and equipment rooms. The top priority of the processing plant is security. After all, the raw materials here are very valuable.

Wen Qing bought security systems and gold processing equipment in the United States and shipped them to Yang Jiesheng. Yang Jiesheng found two jewelry designers in Gangcheng. Wen Qing called Master Lin in Yangmei Village, Xieyang, and found three young people in the village who were willing to develop in Pengcheng. She also recruited several workers and veterans and opened the Jiesheng gold processing factory.

Yang Jiesheng buys spot gold from the Gangcheng Gold Exchange, and Wen Qing buys spot gold or futures from the New York Mercantile Exchange. They then ship the gold to Gangcheng, which is a free port with no customs duties, and then ship the gold to Pengcheng.

Wen Qing went to New York and opened an account at the commodity trading market. In her previous life, she was just a small border guard and a poor student. She knew nothing about the international and domestic financial markets and had no idea about the gold market. The only thing she knew was that it would cost about RMB 15 to 6 to buy a 700-gram gold necklace. She saw this when she was shopping. Excluding the processing cost of the necklace, gold was about RMB 8 to 90 per gram. Now the price of gold is only US$ to US$ an ounce. Although the price difference is very large, the environment is completely different, and it is impossible to make a profit by speculation.

Wen Qing was also surprised when she saw the screen on the exchange showing that gold was 89 yuan per ounce and oil was only 9.3 yuan per barrel. She wondered if gold would be 2000 dollars per ounce and oil would be more than 100 dollars per barrel in the future. It was totally unimaginable. If she bought in now, wouldn't she make a fortune in the future?

After asking the broker, I learned that gold and oil futures have to be delivered every month. Gold is fine as it will not go bad for decades if placed in a certain space. But there is really no place to store the oil, so I had to give up.

She didn't bring much money with her. She took out $100 million from the safe deposit box in a Los Angeles bank and deposited it into her bank account. But she bought some things one after another, so she only bought one kilogram of gold this time. When the futures expired and were delivered, she took the gold back, put it in the space, and brought it back to the town of Davis.

When she was not at home, Shanshan was left to Xiao Mingyi's care. She only stayed out for one night. Although Shanshan was used to staying with her at night, Xiao Mingyi was also with him every day and could coax him well. But when Wen Qing returned home and picked up the child, she seemed to see accusation in his eyes. Wen Qing had to kiss Shanshan hard, and the child's unhappiness disappeared instantly.

After that, when Yang Jiesheng needed gold, he would either buy it in Gangcheng or Wen Qing would call his broker and inform him to buy it, but he would need to go to New York for delivery.

During this period, Wen Qing called Li Zhonghua to inquire about the situation of the grain company. Li Zhonghua told her that they maintained good cooperative relations with Yunlin Town, some rural areas in Jiamusi, and the Grain Bureaus of Hubei Province and Shanxi Province. There was no problem with grain procurement. The grain processing plant in Shenyang had also been built and production had already started.

Wen Qing went to San Francisco and bought some grain processing equipment and put them into the space.

When Shanshan was three months old, Wen Qing was still on leave from school, but she found a temporary job at a winery in Napa Valley and drove to and from get off work every day.

The winery she visited was called Château Camus, which has 23 hectares of vineyards and mainly grows Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah and Gewurztraminer, specializing in making red wine.
