Chapter 457: The Celestial Empire Will Win
"Very good, young man, your thinking is very quick, your judgment is also very accurate, and you can see the root of the problem at a glance from these complicated questions, which is very good." The old beggar smiled and nodded in praise.
Huo Xiaotian did not get carried away with the old beggar's praise, but smiled politely and continued to listen to the old man's guidance.
"Yes, the people of the United States want to make people all over the world like the rice dollar, trust the rice dollar, it can be said that a lot of efforts have been made, before the internationalization of the rice dollar, the rice country after comprehensive consideration, decided to let the rice dollar and gold directly bind, at that time the rice country has 80% of the world's gold reserves.
Therefore, their economists believe that the rice dollar is bound to gold, which can greatly increase the credibility of the rice dollar, and declare that the rice dollar will never depreciate, as long as you have the rice dollar cash in your hand, every 35 meter yuan can be exchanged for an ounce of gold, that is to say, the rice dollar is gold, and the gold is the rice dollar, trying to use gold to cast the credibility of the rice dollar. The old beggar said.
When Huo Xiaotian heard this, he asked curiously: "So the gold content of the currency that is commonly referred to is from here?" ”
The old beggar smiled and nodded.
"But why can't you buy an ounce of gold for thirty-five meters now? An ounce of gold is 28.35 grams, and now it costs more than 1,200 yuan to buy, which is almost 30 times more than 35 yuan of currency. Huo Xiaotian asked strangely.
Of course, the gold standard of the rice dollar did not succeed, this is mainly because he ignored one point, people love gold more than they love the rice dollar, as soon as they heard that the rice dollar can be exchanged for gold, the European countries at that time have exchanged the rice dollar in their hands for gold. but with the gold that he had in his hand. Issued its own currency. Soon, more than half of the gold in the treasury of the rice people was removed, and the rice government had to come forward to stop it and no longer let the rice yuan be bound to the gold, and the rice yuan was completely decoupled from the gold. The old beggar said.
Huo Xiaotian couldn't help laughing, "It turns out that the people of the United States also make stupid mistakes?" ”
"The people of the rice country are not stupid, after they failed to try to bind the rice yuan to gold, they finally found another thing that can increase the influence of the rice yuan. That's oil!
As we all know, oil is the source of all social development, and no country's development can be separated from energy, so the people of the United States creatively let the rice dollar bind all the oil transactions in the world, which was later known as OPEC. The old beggar said again.
"So that's how Opec came here?" Huo Xiaotian said thoughtfully.
"Since the rice dollar has been bound to oil, it has almost monopolized the global energy market by controlling the oil price of oil, and this big cake has allowed the rice country to successfully achieve monetary hegemony. Now the United States is sanctioning other countries at every turn, relying on this energy trump card in its own hands. The old beggar took a sip of tea. Said.
"If you follow the old man's analysis, it is no wonder that the wars launched by the United States over the years are all related to oil." Huo Xiaotian frowned slightly and analyzed.
The old beggar nodded with satisfaction, and fully affirmed Huo Xiaotian's ability to analyze problems.
"However, I don't quite understand, since the war waged by the United States over the years is related to oil, why didn't he transport a barrel of oil after he occupied Yilayu? It stands to reason that after he overthrew the regime of Sada, shouldn't the entire oil of Yilayi be the final say of the United States? Then why didn't he take a laden of oil for himself? Huo Xiaotian asked strangely.
"What? Don't you understand? The old beggar asked with a smile.
Huo Xiaotian thought about it for a while, and suddenly realized, "Oops, I actually forgot, rice dollars are bound to oil, as long as the oil is settled in rice dollars, then, how much you earn is not up to the people of the United States?" If you insist on encroaching on other people's oil, I am afraid that you will fall behind in the world, so that you can still make a lot of money without taking a barrel of oil from others, and the people of the United States are really smart enough. ”
The old beggar smiled and nodded, "Exactly. ”
"After your explanation, the world situation in front of me seems to be instantly clear, the Kosovo war launched by the United States is just when the Europeans created the euro, in order to reduce the impact of the euro on the rice dollar, the United States government launched a seventy-day Kosovo war at this stall, and finally caused the euro to plummet, almost stillborn.
Later, Sada saw the rise of the euro and resisted the currency hegemony of the rice dollar, so Sada found an opportunity to make a fortune, and played a balance pole between the rice dollar and the euro.
In this way, Mi Yuan's hegemony in the world was maintained.
It's no wonder that the rice dollar has risen and fallen over the years, and has wavered.
After every war, the rice yuan will be stronger, and after a while it will be weak, and then start a war, it is really a country that will make war money. Huo Xiaotian touched his chin and thought.
After listening to Huo Xiaotian's analysis, the old beggar's cloudy eyes flashed with satisfaction, and he smiled and nodded, "Young man, your analysis is very correct, you are the smartest young man I have ever seen, you are really teachable." ”
Huo Xiaotian hurriedly shook his head with a smile, "Old man, you have won the award, if you didn't give me guidance, I would still be in the dark now. ”
"Uncle, what do you think of the current situation?" Huo Xiaotian asked again.
"In today's situation, you have also seen that the strength of the United States is based on the hegemony of currency, including the global rapid strike system that he is now building, and it is also necessary to ensure the flow of global capital, which must flow to the United States.
Now where the capital flows, the eyes of the United States will shift to where, every war in the United States is actually a war that changes the flow of capital through force.
Now the economic situation of our Celestial Empire is very good, attracting most of the world's capital injections, and the United States must not let this situation go unchecked.
The euro has divided one-third of the rice dollar market, and our soft sister currency has begun to gradually rise in East Asia, and the United States will never allow our soft sister currency to be internationalized, so in recent years, the United States has been hyping up various disputes between Diaoyu Turtle Island and the South China Sea, in a vain attempt to provoke trouble.
As long as a war breaks out between the United States and us, the capitalists will feel that our Celestial Empire will be in danger, and a lot of capital will be withdrawn, and the withdrawn capital will flow back to the United States, and the United States will profit from it.
And the leaders of our Celestial Empire are very smart, they know the ghost mind of the United States, you want to hype, want to provoke trouble, I just don't fight with you, war is our shortcoming, but economic development is our advantage, so we put forward the development strategy of the Belt and Road Initiative.
Avoid the real and the virtual, make use of the strengths and avoid the weaknesses, avoid the edge of the United States, develop our strengths, export our high-speed rail, expand the influence of our Celestial Empire in Central and Western Asia and even Europe, when the economy of Eurasia is integrated, the world will be the master of everyone, it is not yet known. The old man stroked his beard and said with a smile. (To be continued......)
