Chapter 562: Playing Hooligans
At this time, there was a group of people next to the two, walking back and forth, Li Jianguo lowered his head and said, "I'll understand first." ”
Li Yiming nodded, he didn't have enough foundation, and if he wanted to be able to understand the truth directly after listening to his words, it must be quite difficult.
There happened to be a branch in East Asia in front of him, and Li Yiming focused his attention there.
Along the way, many people walked in and out with umbrellas in front of the branch, and most of the people who walked out were holding application forms.
Three-five whispered together.
There was still a rush of people, and apart from a few complaints, there was no discordant sound.
At the end of last year, the treaty was signed, and it was determined that Xiangjiang would return, and now the mainland has begun to raise funds in Xiangjiang, and no matter what the intentions are, at least this plan seems to be cheaper for the people of Xiangjiang.
The rich don't dare to do more on the surface, the poor only think about taking advantage, and those who don't slip are here to manage their finances.
Li Yiming has heard someone say that if you get more of this thing, you can change hands in the future, well, it should be a water army trained by Huang Qiusheng.
"Hey, it's East Asia. Li Jianguo also noticed.
"We crossed the street and walked from that side. ”
The son said how to go, just how to go, the three hooligans just now did not have an accident obviously made Li Jianguo feel a lot more relieved, Yiming is now very able to control himself, he should give a hundred little red flowers!
…...
Xiangjiang is located in the southern country, although it is by the sea, but in the hot summer afternoon, walking on the road is extremely hot, perhaps because of the high humidity near the sea.
In addition, the high-rise buildings on both sides block a lot of north-south sea breezes, and the asphalt road is exposed to a strange smell, mixed with car exhaust, and in the sunlight it is unacceptable to the bones.
Confetti or bags thrown out of the car window are flying in the wind, which is even more uncomfortable. Fortunately, from time to time, the clouds drifting in the sky will block out the scorching sun, but even then, there are not many pedestrians on the road.
The city that Li Jianguo saw through his sunglasses was shrouded in a faint layer of gray.
Xiangjiang is a British concession, but the currency used here is pegged to the US dollar, which makes the founding comrades ponder deeply, in this world, is it true that whoever has the strongest national strength will have the largest currency...... Or is it the one who has the most gold and the strongest currency?
But Li Jianguo can be sure that if his son did not operate like this, but took a map of the distribution of mineral deposits to find mines, it would be absolutely impossible to open such a situation in Xiangjiang.
Mines are very important, but knowing what mines are is more important, if Yiming doesn't focus on what gold mines are, it must be because in his eyes, it is not particularly important.
What's most important?
Resources are the most important thing!
What is a resource?
Everything we can feel: land, minerals, crops, people, culture, history, mountains, rivers, sunshine and rain, everything is!
walked a long way forward, waiting to cross the road at the intersection, and seeing that no one on the side was too close, Li Jianguo exhaled:
"You went on to say that you just talked about gold and the gold standard. Can I understand that a gold standard currency is equivalent to buying something directly with gold?"
That's what it means. ”
"But here's a question, how do I know if he has so much gold?" asked Li Jianguo.
"yes, that's the problem, and you don't know if the gold is real, maybe it's not pure enough, maybe it's empty. ”
Li Yiming looked at his father, "So there is still a credit problem in this, during the war, it is impossible for the opposing sides to have this kind of credit, and there are many cases of printing counterfeit money to each other." ”
"Really?" Li Jianguo really didn't know about it, but it was easy to understand after thinking about it.
"Yes, what could be better than taking money to buy all the enemy's things directly! Then I'm afraid the only way to sell them arms and let them divide into several factions to kill each other!" Li Yiming pouted, "Of course, the main reason for the abolition of the gold standard is not this. ”
"What is it?"
"Gold is the currency that everyone recognizes, so buying things with paper money under the gold standard is called having a conscience, but if you secretly print more money to buy things, this is a hooligan. Of course, if a country's currency is mainly issued internally, the consequences of such hooliganism are very serious, and the common people will rebel!"
“......”
"But if there's a lot of overseas markets, it's different. ”
Li Yiming looked at the traffic light: "The pound was canceled the gold standard very early, probably in the thirties, the European economy is not good, it has not recovered from the war, and there is not so much gold, in order to stimulate the economy, the British began to print more money, and the money they printed was actually to plunder wealth from overseas colonies."
And here it is, and not just here, India, Australia, Canada, South Africa...... The sun does not set on the empire, the pound passes, just a little more. Let's cross the street!"
After crossing the street, Li Jianguo couldn't help but ask: "They are not colonies, can't they directly ask for things, and they have to buy them with money?"
"Times are different, and people who directly ask for tribute from the colonies are not willing to pay tribute, and besides, it is mainly the capitalists who are active here, and the capitalists like to take money to do things. ”
Li Jianguo nodded, he had never seen these contents in books, he didn't expect that capitalism had evolved to this extent, uh, no, this happened in the thirties!
"Then why isn't it written in our textbooks?"
"That's why the textbook is so poorly compiled, why didn't I write it in 100,000, such an important knowledge! Hey, two of this ice cream, and two bottles of orange water." ”
Li Jianguo was holding the ice cream, and Li Yiming was holding the bottle and rolling it on his face and pinching it in his hand. Li Yiming stood in front of a newsstand and looked at it for a while, pointing to a comic: "Does this sell well?"
"It's pretty, do you want it?" the boss replied.
"Is there any Chinese? I can't understand what it means. Two hundred and four for a book?"
The boss glanced at the book, two hundred and four This is the price of the yuan, but the kid on the other side doesn't understand: "You can just learn, you can learn Chinese and English,...... Thirty dollars for a book!"
Li Jianguo looked at the cover, said this comic, what JUMP.
"Ten dollars for a copy. Li Yiming took out the money.
"Dad, I want to buy twenty-five yuan!"
"Forget it, I can't read it anyway. Li Yiming took back the money, turned around and left.
"This little book is thirty, and it's too expensive. Li Jianguo shook his head and suddenly looked at his son, "Don't you know how to draw?"
"I don't have time to draw like this, this can organize people to do the assembly line. ”
"Then I'll have to buy some textbooks, right?"
"Well, you don't have to buy it here, I'll have someone deliver it myself. "The Shonen Jumping Weekly that Li Yiming read just now is a comic book published by Shueisha, and the city hunter in his mind has not yet been published, but it is not known whether the author Hojo Tsukasa has formed this style of painting now.
