"It's really, a well-organized, hierarchical organization." The fat man raised his fist and shook it. "Whoever is disobedient beats whom, there is no reason to talk about it."

"You haven't gone down yet, the snow is getting heavier and heavier, and after the morning exercise, you won't eat breakfast. It's time for dumplings in a moment. Fang's father walked in with an umbrella, and then greeted his grandmother with a walkie-talkie, "Mom, don't look for it, everyone is on the top of the mountain." ”

"Zhengping brother-in-law sit." Liang Zi shifted his position.

Dad Fang shook the snow on his umbrella, sat down, and looked into the distance. "The thatched snow scene, you guys will really enjoy it."

"What are you talking about?" Dad Fang turned around and asked.

"Talking about the underworld!" Fang Menan said with a smile, "In the past, the main way for the Roman Empire and the British Empire to obtain wealth was to occupy the territory of other countries and enslave the people of other countries. What's yours is mine—your land, your wealth, your body, your offspring,...... It's all mine. Because, I'm nobler than you, that's what white people think. This old way of colonization eventually failed all over the world, one is the resistance of the oppressed, and the other is that the rising star is unwilling to allow the resources to be occupied by the old countries, and there is a fight inside, who has a hard fist, who is the boss. ”

So the United States designed a new imperial model, the financial colonial empire, which was really formed after the decoupling of the dollar from gold, and its hallmark was globalization, accompanied by the powerful military force of the United States. It can be seen from its annual budget that the United States alone spends about half of the world's total military spending. Fang Monan crossed Erlang's legs and put his hands on his knees. Said nonchalantly.

"It is true that this model of neo-imperialism is not based primarily on the appropriation of other people's land and bodies, but has existed for a short time. Before the collapse of the Brayden Woods system, the main way to make money was exports. After World War II, the industrial systems of various countries were destroyed and in ruins, and even daily life was unsustainable.

At that time, the United States, the only one that was not baptized by the war, was the only manufacturing country in the world at that time, so it made a lot of money. However, there is a problem with making money from exports? ”

Looking at Liang Zi's meaningful smile, Fang Monan raised his eyebrows and smiled, "What does Liang Zi have in mind." ”

Liang Zi smiled, "Gao Jian can't talk about it." I'll leave it at that. Listen to it. The problem is, when the whole world produces your products, people do need your products, but. What do others exchange for? Trade is supposed to be interconnected. When the monopoly grows to the point where only you 'own everything'. When everyone else has 'nothing,' trade dies. For some time after World War II, this was the case with the world economy. Thereupon. In order to maintain trade, the United States had to let other war-torn countries develop industries, which was tantamount to ceding a part of the market for American manufacturing and allowing them to turn around and make American money, which was almost what the Marshall Plan meant. I'm right! But ......"

Fang's father shook the umbrella in his hand and said, "But this plan was quickly challenged, once the industrial base of other countries was restored, it would soon lead to competition with the United States, and the United States' position as the world's number one was almost lost, and the status of one family was increasingly precarious." ”

"So there is the model of the financial colonial empire, which was built after this, and it differs from the old colonialism in that although the manufacturing of products is transferred to others, it can take possession of the wealth created by others through financial means. American economist Michael Hudson once pointed out to the U.S. government that the decoupling of the U.S. dollar from gold allows the U.S. to issue more U.S. dollars, which is beneficial to the United States in the short term, but unfavorable in the long run, and is by no means a good thing for the world. But the United States did it anyway, and has been doing it for 20 years. The United States made a fortune with the help of this model of a financial colonial empire.

The U.S. dollar is actually a piece of paper, when the U.S. dollar is pegged to gold, the person who receives the U.S. dollar, if he can't exchange it for anything else, can use it to exchange it for gold, as long as the gold is still recognized by people, this method can be implemented. However, gold is limited, and the gold reserves of the United States are also limited, which makes the dollar limited and cannot be issued indiscriminately.

Once the dollar is decoupled from gold, the United States, by virtue of its political status and economic strength, has established the status of the dollar as a world currency, and it can be issued at will. At this time, the dollar is a blank slate. To use the mafia as an analogy, the previous colonial method was that the mafia took all the producers' property and forced others to work for him. The way of the American triad is that it does not occupy other people's property and land, but the United States controls the market and takes other people's products in the market at will. The United States is more 'advanced' than in the past, and when it takes other people's products, it will give them a blank note, which is the dollar. ”

"Hit the white stripe!" Dad Fang smiled bitterly, he was deeply touched by the white strips, especially for the farmers. The government buys public grain from the peasants, but does not pay it in cash, and issues an IOU to the individual, and if there is no money, it will be paid in the future, and if there is no money, it may be lost.

Fang Monan looked at his father's appearance and knew in his heart, because at this time, it was the time when "playing white strips" was flooding all over the country.

Every time a peasant hands over public grain or other agricultural and sideline products, he often gets a blank slip.

From time to time, a county will issue tens of millions of yuan in white slips, seriously affecting the peasants' purchase of the necessary means of subsistence and means of production, and dampening the peasants' enthusiasm for production. In some places, there have even been incidents of peasants besieging purchasing stations and insulting purchasing personnel.

"Playing white, this way of exchanging things is too easy, so that the United States is less and less interested in manufacturing, the strength of the American manufacturing industry is getting lower and lower, and the United States can exchange less and less things with others, or there is a little treasure left and absolutely unwilling to exchange with others. Strategic resources and high technology, it will not die to give.

In order to maintain the priority of always taking things from others, the United States has to play more white slips, and the white slips will become more and more. As a result, people get more and more white slips, and seeing that the United States is unable to fulfill the promises on the white slips, they begin to want to accept American white slips. At this time, the United States, like the underworld, sent its own thugs to beat up those who did not want to accept white slips. The powerful military power of the United States is nothing more than to maintain the right to take things from the market with American white slips. In addition, the United States has the right to speak, telling everyone that only its white slip is the most reliable, and that it is fully capable of paying it later. Dad Fang said. As soon as he resisted, he was suppressed. ”

Fang Monan nodded, raised his eyebrows and said, "Dad, what you said is as if you've seen it with your own eyes." ”

"Huh...... Have it? The truth is the same. Dad Fang sneered.

"Europe now and Japan two years ago are the best examples." Liang Zi said, "The circulation of American white strips in the market also distinguishes objects. One of the few countries in Europe that has good relations with the United States, similar to the members of the triad gangs, everyone needs to deal with other people together, although there is also infighting, but cooperation outweighs differences. One of the more special ones is Japan, a defeated country in the war, the United States let Japan start manufacturing, Japan received a large amount of American white slips, and actually went to the United States to get things. Buy Columbia Pictures, Rockefeller Center, and more.

In a fit of rage, the United States announced that the depreciation of all the white strips issued to Japan was tantamount to the fact that Japan had given the United States a lot of things for nothing. As a defeated country, Japan is the most diligent and lowest-ranking member of the American triad gangs, and the younger brother of Japan does not dare to challenge the United States at all. Some European countries in the triad gangs are very happy to see that the United States is indiscriminately sending white slips and taking other people's things casually, and they also want to send white strips themselves, which is why they want to unify the currency. The boss of the underworld in the United States was also very angry, and he pointed out that he had taught Europe a lesson and asked it not to forget who the boss was -- the little brothers of the underworld could have today, wasn't it the boss who gave it to you? Want to rebel? Europe has no choice but to do so. ”

"So don't look at the joy in Europe now, the United States doesn't dare to push it too hard. After all, Europe is an ally, a member of a gang. Liang Zi smiled.

Fang Monan gave him a thumbs up, "Liang Zi is good!" ”

"The meaning of globalization is: no one else is allowed to open their own market, there can only be the only market in the world opened by the American black boss, and the rules of this market are all set by the American black boss, and every trader in this market, no matter how you produce, must accept the white strip of the American black boss when buying and selling things. Whoever does not accept it, the United States will fight him. To a certain extent, globalization has eased the relationship between the United States and the triad gangs and internal members, and in terms of the United States' right to speak, the cake has become bigger, and everyone has a little more spoils. Strictly speaking, the powerful force that the black boss of the United States relies on is also exchanged for white stripes. The reason why it can do this is nothing more than that it speaks with its fists, and no one else can beat it. Fang Monan got up and stretched his waist and looked out, "The United States' hobby is to use violence to promote the importance of world peace!" ”

Fang Dad and they looked at each other, which was very ironic, but this was the reality.

The so-called freedom, democracy, universal values and other remarks are actually the result of the triad controlling the right to speak, and countless underworld bosses have dressed themselves up as philanthropists and even trade union activists. The typical feature of the United States, the largest international triad, is that the right to violence, the right to wealth, and the right to speak are all in one. If someone says that the United States can be exempted from institutional constraints because of its good nature, then it is tantamount to letting checks and balances, supervision, and the like all go to hell.

"Sometimes the rules of the underworld are tougher than the rules of the white society, the enforcement is strong, the action is faster and more efficient!" Fang Monan said with emotion.

"In the final analysis, strength determines everything, and if you fall behind, you will be beaten." Fang's father said.

Grandma's voice came from the walkie-talkie, "Zhengping, you haven't come down yet, the dumplings are ready." She muttered, "Let you go up and look for someone, but they will find it, and you won't come down." ”

"Let's go! Your grandma called us! Dad Fang got up and opened the umbrella and handed it to Fang Monan.

Fang Monan shook his head, no, she walked into the snow, Fang's father was now unfazed by her training.

He looked at Liang Zi and them, "No, it's snowing, it's not raining, just go down and slap it." ”

The four of them went down the mountain into the big kitchen, and the hot dumplings were already on the table, waiting for them! (To be continued......)
