Transcendent Journey

To

The entire group used a sumptuous dinner.

Duchess Olivia feels sorry for the Prime Minister whose workload has doubled due to the start of the “Western Movement”. After saying hello to Queen Your Majesty, he ran out to help the old father with the government affairs.

Others should work overtime, the study of the study, the cultivation of the cultivation.

Only the two monarchs, Ivan and Livina, walked into the exquisitely decorated small hall in the White Swan Castle.

Grumbling… Grumbling…

Ivan cooked this year’s new tea skillfully, and organized that exciting grand blueprint in his heart:

“There are so many things in this period of time. If it weren’t for the small actions of the bankers to remind me, I would have almost forgotten this good deal.

As long as the two of us agree and let the allies follow up, it shouldn’t be difficult to accomplish this costless thing. “

Ivan has long established a policy of “crossing the river by touching Evil God” and is very concerned about everything that happens within the opponent’s sphere of influence.

Information about the issue of banknotes due to the shortage of precious metals in the “Lower Republics” came back immediately.

As for how to go to Yin, those bankers can talk about it later, but an extremely rare opportunity has been placed in front of him and Livina.

Ivan said while talking, but found that there was no movement on the other side. When I looked up, he didn’t know whether to cry or laugh:

“I said… what are you doing so far away from me? Is there even this kind of trust between people?”

Livina, who overlapped a pair of long legs and sat far away on the other side of the Xiaobian Hall, stared at Ivan with a pair of beautiful lake-green eyes, and nodded hard:

“Well, yes!”

I also added a sentence in my heart: ‘especially when you withdraw money from me. ’

But seeing Ivan picking up the tea and taking a sip slowly, he said leisurely:

“Oh, this time is not for you to spend money, but to make money, and to make a lot of money!”

Livina’s face was a little more solemn, and she gently lowered her raised leg, with a slight suspicion in her eyes:

“Big money? How much money?”

Now that the “Tulip Alliance” has established its dominance, it has long since been the pain of tightening its belt to catch up with Sirius in the past few years.

Even if the wealth of the successful robbing of the “Treasure Fleet” is placed in front of her, it will not be able to move your majestic queen Your Majesty.

Ivan smiled at her mysteriously:

“Is it enough to rob the world?”

The skirt corners in front of her flashed, and Livina was already sitting in front of Ivan with a fragrant breeze, and straightened her waist upright like a schoolboy.

“Good!”

Ivan: …reality!

“Just [faceless man] sent a letter…”

After Ivan introduced the actions and intentions of the bankers, Livina’s expression could not help but gradually became more serious, looking thoughtful:

“So… shall we also learn from them?”

Livina also agrees that the issuance of banknotes will be a big trend in the future.

Because the amount of currency must correspond to the product one after another.

But as the steam industrial revolution continues, the total economic volume of the human world has gradually increased exponentially. At this time, the reserves of gold and silver may not be able to meet the needs of economic life.

After all, precious metals in the world are limited, while the growth of industrial products, transaction scale and frequency in human economic activities is unlimited.

If all transactions are to use precious metals as a medium, then one day many transactions will not be able to proceed.

And moreover.

Many countries have discovered a long time ago that because of the widespread phenomenon of “bad money driving out good money” in precious metal currencies, full-value currencies have been secretly collected, and most of the precious metal currencies circulating on the market are not worthwhile.

Finally, it seriously affected economic life, causing deflation, a vicious circle.

But banknotes are different.

It not only has national credit and legal binding force, but its value can be widely recognized. It is easy to trade and carry, and the government can print and issue it as needed.

Replacing precious metals should be a historical necessity.

However, like the Low Countries…

Livina’s face was a little weird.

The establishment of a private central bank, the government borrowed money from bankers in the form of national debt, and paid high interest rates, so that the entire country would work for bankers, it was ridiculous!

Even ordinary citizens can’t feel the mysterious in it, but probably only when the banker is the real ruler of the country, this kind of ridiculous situation will happen.

Seeing that Livina had realized the key to the problem, Ivan renewed her a cup of tea, and smiled and announced his grand plan:

“Yes, and no. Banknotes are indeed going to be promoted, but they cannot rely on government credit alone, but they must continue to be bound to precious metals like gold tickets.

We tentatively call the currency of this tulip ‘golden pound’. “

The currency backed by gold and silver is not the “debt currency” of the “overdraft future”, but the “honest currency” based on the fruits of people’s labor.

There is no need to fight at all. When the gadget launched by the “Lowland Republic” meets the “honest currency”, there will be no second possibility other than the collapse of the army.

But the key to Ivan’s words is more than that, staring into Livina’s eyes, he slowly uttered a word:

“I don’t know if you have a concept of the word’international currency’?”

“International currency? Is it gold and silver?”

As the name suggests, relative to the currency circulating in the country, “international currency” is of course the currency recognized by various countries and used for international trade and international payments.

As the new world structure takes shape, transportation conditions become more convenient and international exchanges become more frequent. The birth of an “international currency” that facilitates international settlements is becoming more and more necessary.

Seeing that Livina is still unclear about the key behind it, Ivan did not sell the key anymore, and directly dialed:

“What I mean is to use our paper-printed’gold pound’ to link gold and silver, so that this sovereign currency will become an international currency, so that all countries in the entire world will use the’gold pound’ to settle international trade! “

Now the “Tulip Alliance” is already the most powerful national coalition in the entire material world. It has established itself as the “Sea Power Hegemon” through several wars, and has a well-trained and excellent navy.

The fourth rank Peak transcender below Demi-God is not weaker than any national power.

There is also the world’s largest land and colony. Most of the new continent north, the small south continent, and the entire Peacock Islands… have created a huge raw material supply and dumping market.

After taking the lead in completing the steam industrial revolution, they have the most abundant industrial products, and any commodities needed by various countries can be bought here.

The military, economics, and credit go in step with each other, and all obstacles have been cleared for the “international currency”.

Of course.

If you want to truly become an “international currency”, you must also make this “golden pound” widely circulate and export economically like the lowlands, so that the world depends on the “golden pound”.

When the time comes, it is possible that 60% or more of the currency is used in foreign circulation.

Financial handling fees and service fees alone will also give the “Tulip Alliance” a huge advantage in global resource allocation.

The most ruthless trick is to levy “seigniorage” on the world!

The difference between the actual cost of minting money and the surface value of money belongs to the income of the mint. This income earned by the mint is called “Seigniorage”.

Under the paper currency system, the monetary authority issues currency and obtains all income!

By that time, all the countries in the entire world can only curse: MMP, while they have no choice but to continue to use the golden pound for settlement, and use their own labor to contribute to the tulips.

“You can still play like this?”

Livina’s face was gradually dull at this time, and her slender jade hand held her bone china teacup for a long time without moving.

Ivan laughed, picked up his teacup and touched her:

“Civilized people like us who have washed their feet and landed ashore don’t bother to fight and kill. Civilized people naturally have a civilized way. They put away the pirate flag and gracefully… ransack the world.” [19459002 ]

Livina subconsciously took a sip of the cold tea soup, but it seemed to have drunk a sip of strong alcohol, her face was ruddy and a little bit agitated.

“That…”

Leaning forward slightly, lowered his voice and whispered with Ivan while biting his ears. The plan to divide the spoils was completely completed. The two people hooked their shoulders on their backs and couldn’t help but laugh out.

unconsciously.

These two monarchs are youngsters all over the world. They have grown to the point where they can set off violent storms all over the world with just a sneeze.

And this is a Level 12 storm that is destined to affect the world for dozens of years!

In addition.

The “International Currency” plan is not only for sustained economic growth and taxation of the whole world, or for the ambitions of bankers.

As long as this “international currency” linked to gold and silver still exists for one day, they will not want to quickly harvest wealth through large-scale artificial financial crises.

The invisible government of “money rights” has been completely legalized by bankers, and Ivan knows what they want at a glance.

With the continuous development of finance, capital will prefer the financial speculative market with short cycles and quick money, instead of investing in a down-to-earth real economy.

And “inflation” is one of the most powerful weapons in the hands of capital.

In this way, the government can secretly and imperceptibly confiscate the wealth of the people, and it is difficult for one person in a million to detect this kind of theft.

But here is not the “popular” government that performs this function, but the hereditary “Eye of Wealth”.

When the “Golden Pound” became popular.

Financial game? The thing that will never create value, let me work obediently and honestly on the plate of industry!

Then Livina suddenly thought of another question, and gradually stopped the laughter:

“Then as the economy develops further, precious metals will one day be under-used, causing severe deflation, and some people exchange for gold and silver on a large scale. What should I do when the time comes?”

Then suddenly like a real girl, she spit out her pink tongue cutely, and gave an answer:

“renege on a debt? Gē gē gē …”

The “gold and silver standard” of course also has inherent limitations. Although precious metals are still sufficient for the time being, the total amount is limited, and the rate of increase will gradually fail to keep up with the commodity growth since the completion of the “steam industrial revolution” speed.

This is obviously not a perfect system once and for all.

Slap——!

Ivan’s fingertips burst out with a blue and white sparkle, indifferently said:

“Shanren has a clever plan, nothing more than a change in the anchor of the currency.

With the advancing of the “electrical industry” in the next step, the rigid demand of this World is more than just gold. “
