I'm in the county town, and you say I'm a big shot?

Chapter 537, Section 536: "Notice Regarding the Prevention of Bitcoin Risks"

The other three were somewhat surprised, but they quickly came to their senses.

President Ning laughed heartily: "President Fang's idea is good. If we have our own port on the west coast of South America, which is adjacent to the Pacific Ocean, we won't have to go around the Cape of Good Hope or go through the Panama Canal, saving us the humiliation of queuing to cross the canal. But if we really do that, the country will have to spend a lot of money."

"When playing a grand strategy, the necessary expenses are worthwhile."

"So, which port on the Pacific coast do you think is the best?" Everyone suddenly became interested in this topic and even picked up their phones to use Baidu Maps.

"Brazil is not adjacent to the Pacific Ocean, so we can only look in Peru."

“Cayao is Peru’s largest port with excellent conditions, but it is close to Lima, the capital of Peru, and is a strategic location. I don’t think they will agree to it.”

“Puerto Iquitos is located in the northern part of the Peruvian Amazon basin. It is an important inland river port. Although it is not directly on the sea, it seems good that it is connected to the Atlantic Ocean via the Amazon River.”

"How is Qiankai Port?" Fang Qingye asked.

Everyone was in high spirits.

Of course, these were all just casual chats over tea and after meals.

“I can talk to the comrades at the National Development and Reform Commission about our ideas,” Director Liu said.

They drank tea until 5 p.m., then the four of them returned to the city.

Fang Qingye returned to the city in Qiao Yongfeng's Audi. In the car, Qiao Yongfeng asked, "Qingye, are you really still going to invest in the soybean company in Brazil?"

"Yes what's the matter?"

"To be honest, this stuff doesn't make money. According to Katia's budget, this season, Felgrass's soybean purchase will result in a net profit of no more than 6500 million reais, or about 1100 million US dollars. If we calculate it this way, we won't be able to recoup our costs in 10 years."

"I don't intend to make money from these investments, as long as I don't lose money," Fang Qingye said calmly. "There are three truly legal ways to make big money in China: real estate, finance, and the internet."

"Then why are you increasing your investment?"

"Would you believe me if I said I was buying an extra amulet?" Fang Qingye said, half-jokingly and half-seriously.

Qiao Yongfeng gave him a knowing look but said nothing.

“Brother Qiao, I’m different from you. You have a strong family background, while I’m just a young man from a small town. If I were like those local tycoons in our county, it wouldn’t matter if I messed around within the county. But I’ve gone too far, and I’m playing in the very sensitive field of finance. If I don’t have some protection, I’ll be in danger in the future.”

"Bitcoins are one, soybeans and grains are another; they can be lifesavers in critical moments."

Qiao Yongfeng sighed softly after hearing this, and then said, "I hope I never have to use it."

"I also hope that."

Silence fell in the carriage.

After finishing her business in Yanjing, Fang Qingye took a flight back to Nanxin the next day.

Bai Ou was also in Nanxin, waiting for him at her home in the lakeside villa. When she saw Fang Qingye come in with her suitcase, the two hugged each other.

"I thought you didn't want to come back after you went to Yanjing," Bai Ou murmured.

"Look at what you're saying. Shanghai is bustling enough, isn't it? I don't want to stay here any longer."

"That's different. There's a beautiful girl waiting for you in Yanjing, and you'll have the power to fascinate you men. You'll meet ministerial and department-level leaders."

"Haha. Are you jealous?" Fang Qingye gently pinched Bai Ou's delicate nose.

"No, not at all. Isn't Miss Peach very pretty?"

"It is beautiful." Fang Qingye briefly described the appearance of the yellow peach.

"Yanjing girl, isn't she cute?" Bai Ou had heard Fang Qingye mention her, so she should be cute.

"Yeah, okay, I'm going to take a shower."

"Okay, I'll pack your suitcase." Bai Ou said, carrying the suitcase upstairs to the second floor.

"You should hurry up and take a shower and lie in bed waiting for me," Fang Qingye called out. "What are you doing in broad daylight?"

"Daytime debauchery!"

"Bah, shameless!"

An hour later, the two lay naked on the bed, the flush on Bai Ou's face still lingering, revealing a satisfied expression.

"Dajiang Wang Tao and the others have left?"

"Yes, I left yesterday. I spent three days inspecting the facilities and was quite satisfied with the hardware and software environment of Nanxin. I'll write a report when I get back and submit it to the board of directors for discussion and review. I'll attend the meeting then," Bai Ou said.

"Will it pass?"

"It's pretty much a done deal. Once the Dajiang board of directors approves it, Nanxin will prepare to acquire land, and basic construction will begin after the rice harvest in September. It is expected to be completed and put into operation by May next year. Our Nanxin New Energy Industrial Park will be the largest industrial park in Jinghai area, and we are preparing to apply for national-level park status."

Dajiang's factory is also located in the new energy industrial park, and the second phase of the industrial park's construction has been launched according to the plan.

"Now my second uncle should be satisfied, right?" Fang Qingye said with a smile.

"Yes, the total investment is expected to be 3 million yuan, and there will definitely be additional investment later. More importantly, it can drive the surrounding industrial chain. Our Nanxin already has many electronic product companies, and this time we have given them an opportunity."

"Okay, I've completed my mission."

Fang Qingye comfortably rolled over.

"I'm going back to Shanghai tomorrow," Bai Ou said again.

"You're leaving as soon as I get back? What's the rush?"

"The financial reports of the various companies we control for the first half of the year have been sent over one after another. After the finance department reviews them, they will report to me and Qin Jing. The 3000 million yuan of additional investment after the acquisition of Zhiyun Technology last year has been used up. The company is now in deficit and needs Tuofang Technology to make further investments."

In addition to developing banking system software, Zhiyun Technology is now focusing on a new generation of payment systems based on blockchain technology.

To this end, Xin Tiejun, the company's CEO, recruited more than 20 master's and doctoral students majoring in computer software, financial engineering, and mathematics to participate in research and development. This part currently only incurs expenses and has no revenue.

“Alright, as the CEO of Tuofang Technology, you decide on this matter,” Fang Qingye said.

"So what are you planning to do after you get back?"

“I’ll continue my vacation.” Fang Qingye said matter-of-factly, “I was on vacation when Qiao Yongfeng dragged me to Yanjing. Of course I’ll take more vacation time when I get back.”

"You're trying to slack off!" Bai Ou bluntly exposed.

"Who told me to have such a capable wife?" Fang Qingye chuckled and hugged Bai Ou's smooth and soft body.

The next day, Bai Ou drove back to Shanghai, and Fang Qingye continued her vacation.

Fishing or drinking tea in the nursery.

Donating half of his Bitcoin made him feel very relieved.

Let's just leave the other half as it is. If we really want to trade it, we can go to Hong Kong or Singapore.

There are no opportunities in China.

Sure enough, just a few days after Fang Qingye returned, five ministries—the People's Bank of China, the China Banking Regulatory Commission, the China Securities Regulatory Commission, and the China Insurance Regulatory Commission—jointly issued the "Notice on Preventing Bitcoin Risks."

The "Notice" provides clear regulations and detailed interpretations regarding the nature, status, and circulation of Bitcoin.

It explicitly states that financial institutions and payment institutions are prohibited from engaging in any business related to Bitcoin, and that the management of Bitcoin websites should be strengthened to prevent potential money laundering risks associated with Bitcoin.

This official document was sent to Jinghai Bank through the banking system, and Fang Qingye would naturally see it, but it didn't matter; everything was as expected.

But some people got anxious.

In Nanxin County, besides Fang Qingye, there are other people who have a certain amount of Bitcoin, such as Zhang Bin and his wife from Feixiang Computer Company.
