So, while he ordered the government to maintain the speed of selling 1.5 million tons of food every day, he reached a trade agreement with the bear, exchanging tanks for food, and began to hoard a large amount of food from the bear!
These things were carried out in great secrecy. Unless the businessmen infiltrated the top level of the government, and they must be at the ministerial level, otherwise they would not be able to know the government’s actions in advance!
Therefore, the businessmen thought that as long as they ate the food in the hands of the government, they would be able to win the final victory without knowing it. As a result, they did not know that Mainz used 2,000 No. 1 tanks and some mechanical equipment to exchange 10 million tons of food from the bear!
This batch of food is enough for the Hans to eat for four months!
Moreover, the grain harvest season is coming soon. As long as the grain is harvested, a large amount of grain will flood into the market, and the grain hoarded by the merchants will immediately be unsalable! The reason why Mainz did not take action in advance is because he was waiting, waiting for the moment when the funds in the hands of these merchants were exhausted!
In order to make high profits, the merchants snapped up all the grain sold by the government in the market at high prices.
This money is equivalent to going directly into the pocket of the government. The money of this kind of illegal merchants who endanger the country and the people is not worth making!
Therefore, Mainz waited until these people ran out of money and began to cash out the grain in their hands before giving them a fatal blow!
Tens of millions of tons of grain from the government poured into the market, and the price of grain plummeted rapidly, not only falling back to the level before the price increase, but even falling further on the original basis!
This time, these merchants suddenly wanted to cry without tears!
The prices of the grain they bought before were almost all higher than the market price, and the prices of the grain they ate from the government were generally about twice as high as the market price!
This does not include the cost of hiring unemployed people to help them queue up for food. If these expenses are included, their cost is about three times the current food price!
In other words, if the price of food cannot rise to more than three times the original price, then they will lose money on the amount of food they sell!
Therefore, faced with the situation that the price of food is falling instead of rising, the merchants immediately panicked!
“Where’s Smith? Where’s that fellow Smith?”
“Why didn’t he come?”
“This guy has been lying from beginning to end, he is deceiving us!”
“This is not an opportunity to make a fortune, it is a trap that will bankrupt us!”
After the merchants gathered together, they found that Smith, the leader, had disappeared without a trace!
Just when they were at a loss and didn’t know what to do, the SS suddenly broke in and appeared in front of them!
“Everyone, raise your hands and lie on the ground. Anyone who dares to resist will be killed without mercy!”
The SS soldiers wearing black combat uniforms, helmets and holding MP40 submachine guns rushed in violently and quickly subdued all the merchants in the house!
“Check the list!”
Heydrich personally led this operation. The stampede incident had made him angry for several days. He had vowed to bring these guys to justice, and today, he finally found the opportunity!
“All confirmed, except Smith, everyone is here!”
The SS soldiers checked the list and photos and confirmed the identities of the people at the scene one by one!
“Very good, take them all away!”
Heydrich glanced coldly. Smith had been under their close surveillance for a long time. This guy didn’t show up here now because he sensed the danger and was ready to escape!
The SS was tracking his whereabouts at this time, intending to play a long game and catch the big fish, and pull out the black hand hidden behind the scenes!
“We are innocent, why are you arresting us?”
“That’s right, we are innocent!”
“Who are you? Who told you to arrest us? We are going to sue you!”
At first, the merchants were frightened by the black muzzles of the SS soldiers, so they did not dare to resist. But now that they saw that the SS was going to put them in prison, they became even more scared when they thought of the terrible black prison!
So the merchants started to make a fuss and tried to escape from the SS!
“Heydrich glanced at these people and sneered,”Innocent? How funny, do you know who the escaped Smith is?”
Seeing the extremely cold smile on Heydrich’s face, everyone felt as if they were being stared at by the devil, and they all shuddered!
When they heard Heydrich mention Smith’s name, they began to have a bad feeling in their hearts!
They may have realized before that this guy named Smith had a complicated background.
However, at that time, they only cared about the immediate interests and did not think too much.
At this time, when the truth was revealed and the SS appeared in front of them, they recalled this matter again and were immediately scared!
“Who is he?”
Thinking of the nature of the SS, the merchants began to feel uneasy, but some still held on to a glimmer of hope.
“He is a spy for MI6, who deliberately planned this attempt to overthrow our regime and endanger our national security, and you are all his accomplices, so the charge for your arrest is treason!”
Heydrich saw the desperate expressions on the faces of these businessmen, and his words directly sentenced these people to death!
Once the treason is proven, they basically have no way to survive!
However, he did not sympathize with these people at all, because they all deserved to die!
……
Smith was in a panic.
When he realized that his action had failed and he might be retaliated by the angry businessmen, he didn’t dare to attend the businessmen’s gathering.
However, this was not the most frightening thing for him!
He knew that he had planned such a big action, which would definitely arouse the vigilance of the SS. Maybe there were SS members lurking around him.
So, after realizing that the situation was not good, Smith immediately chose to escape!
However, in order to escape from Hans quickly, he had to rely on the help of the organization!
So, Smith immediately thought of Major Lecar. Although he knew that going to the other party at this time might put both of them in danger, he couldn’t care so much when facing the threat to his life! Major Lecar had already known the news of the failure of the operation at this time, but before he could give any instructions, Smith actually took the initiative to come to him!
“Are you crazy? You will kill me!”
Major Lecar was shocked to see Smith suddenly appear outside his door.
“Major, our operation has failed. I must leave Hans immediately, otherwise my life may be in danger!”
Smith could no longer care about so much. He even had the idea of quitting MI6. Nothing was more important than his own life, so the most urgent thing was to save his life first. Other jobs and futures had to be put aside!
“Humph, you have wasted the organization’s trust in you, and you still have the nerve to make such a request!”
Major Lecar laughed angrily, he almost pointed at the other party’s nose and cursed!
The failure of this operation not only failed to complete the task assigned to the other party by the organization, but also further strengthened the strength of the Hans government!
It can be imagined that after they catch all these businessmen who are making trouble, they will definitely confiscate all the assets in the hands of these businessmen. Smith’s failed action is equivalent to giving a perfect excuse for the Hans government to take action against these businessmen!
And once they let them eat up all the assets of these businessmen, then the 100 billion economic stimulus plan they announced before may really be implemented! After cursing, Major Lecar also calmed down. Since the operation failed, Smith would inevitably be exposed, and he would also be in danger of being exposed, so he had to leave Hans to avoid the limelight!
Thinking of this, he said to Smith,”Go drive my car and prepare to go to Billy Division. I will now issue an order to all the agents lurking in Hans to let them continue to lurk until the new contact person appears!”
After saying this, he immediately used his home radio to send a telegram to the spies hidden in Hans!
