After the War of Resistance Against Japan,Tianjin was faced with the predicament of food shortage caused by the war and food price rise caused by inflation.The two intertwined ups and downs made a contradiction between supply and demand prominently.The Tianjin Municipal Government had to seek the consent of the central government to gain control over the grain in the warehouses in order to provide food for the people;to encourage merchants to go to the grain-producing areas to buy grain in order to increase warehousing;and to regulate the market in order to ensure the supply and reduce the price of grain,which to some extent alleviated the predicament of food supply.However,as the market network centered on Tianjin was greatly shrunk after the war,so that the food supply was unsustainable;inflation was difficult to control,so that the grain market was difficult to operate normally;the market policy violated the economic law and was difficult to implement for a long time.As a result,the food supply predicament in Tianjin after the war couldn't be resolved fundamentally.
