Chapter 30: Incredible Benefits

In the middle of October, the land of Shenzhou was still full of war, but this did not affect the foreign companies of various countries that were absorbed in the coastal cities, and they used their official power to help merchants from various countries suck blood on this land.

And now, these foreign companies seem to be in a carnival.

"Five Million Silver Dollars"

A green-haired foreigner with thick eyebrows twisted his neck and raised five fingers.

Originally, he was just a down-and-out businessman in the United States, because he couldn't get along in the country so he went abroad to pan for gold and became an agent, thinking that there were not many business opportunities in this war-torn region, but it was incredible that in just half a year, he completed the five million silver dollars of cotton and mules and horses, although he was only the lowest businessman, but the profit in his hands still reached 750,000 silver dollars.

As long as he brought these silver dollars back home, then he could instantly reap hundreds of thousands of dollars.

"Congratulations, congratulations"

"God, are there silver dollars all over here?"

“······”

A group of merchants were amazed, the transaction volume of five million silver dollars, converted into more than a dozen tons of silver, this is a small amount, now the United States is carrying out the silver bill, the price of silver is still rising, the value of this silver is very high.

"However, it is the Japanese who make the most money, and I heard that they have earned 20 million silver dollars from a trading house."

The first foreign businessman with thick eyebrows spoke with envy.

"This dwarf monkey, if they hadn't started a war, this would definitely be under American goods"

An American businessman said fiercely.

Now the entire continent is controlled by the Japanese, especially the coastal ports, which are almost monopolized by the Japanese, and other merchants cannot be intervened at all, and with the support of the army, it is almost a predatory trade.

······

"The statistics are out"

In Shanghai, a large Japanese trading house, an accountant holds a statistical table.

"From the beginning of May to the beginning of September, we traded a total of 50 million silver dollars in four months."

"So much?"

The huge amount of silver dollars made the boss of the trading house stunned.

Now that the Imperial Army exercised commercial control over the occupied territories, the Imperial companies controlled almost all the important industries and high-profit industries, and also exercised strict control over the grain, cotton, and other military supplies.

His biggest recent trade is mules and horses, I don't know what happened, the demand for mules and horses in the inland areas has increased dramatically recently, he bought a large number of mules and horses from the colonies of France and other countries in South Asia, and then doubled the price and changed hands, this alone has nearly 10 million silver dollars into the account.

And silver is a good thing, the new silver dollar is not Yuan Datou, the quality is much higher than Yuan Datou, and after being smelted and then sold to the United States, with the help of the silver price difference caused by the Silver Act, his profit will be doubled again.

Thinking of this, he immediately asked the accountant, that is, his son, the future successor of the firm he had chosen.

"How many silver dollars are in the warehouse today?"

He used yen to buy supplies, and the silver dollars he received were stored in the warehouse, after all, silver dollars as currency is too wasteful, as long as it works well, this can get several times the profit of silver than currency.

"35 million silver dollars"

The accountant immediately replied.

Thirty-five million silver dollars, which is calculated into silver ingots, which is a full number of hundreds of tons of silver ingots.

I hope these days can continue...

The boss of the comptoir looked forward to it silently.

"You go and contact the military and ask them to organize a ship transport"

The boss of the trading house paused, and said to his son, such a large amount of silver, in order to transport it safely, he chose to cooperate with the military, although in this way, the military will share a lot of profits, but if you want to maximize the profit from the silver, you can only rely on the government, and private individuals will be drawn a large amount of taxes.

Beiping, a warehouse of the Japanese Army.

"According to the great god again, have you found the warehouse of the Central Bank of the Republic of China?" One lieutenant general exclaimed.

The warehouse was densely packed with silver dollars, and pieces of delicate silver dollars were randomly stacked on the ground, and under the illumination of the light, a piece of silver light sparkled, and the lieutenant general picked up a silver dollar casually and stretched out his finger to pluck it.

Ding···

The crisp sound indicates that the silver dollar is of extremely high quality, and the silver dollar is minted by a full ingot.

"Hehe, these are all seized from the Republic of China"

The man behind the lieutenant general spoke in a smug tone, this is also a lieutenant general, and he is the supreme commander of the North China Front.

As the supreme commander of the Japanese army in North China, he commanded more than 200,000 Japanese troops and occupied hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of territory, in which he had almost absolute control, whether it was commercial activities or otherwise, he was at his disposal.

Recently, it was after June, he found that a large number of silver dollars began to circulate in the occupied area, the amount of which made him amazed, he directly ordered the soldiers to forcibly exchange them for military tickets with hairstyles in the occupied area, but the effect was not good, the silver dollar has the characteristics of preserving the value of the people of the Republic of China, and under high pressure, most of them will be collected after they arrive.

He then began to plunder commerce, driving out all the merchants of the occupied territories, and then bringing in a group of imperial merchants to take full control of the merchants of the occupied territories, so that in just three months, he harvested a full warehouse of silver dollars.

"How many are there?"

The first lieutenant general swallowed his saliva, he was part of the Kwantung Army and was the commander of a division.

"110 million"

The final number made his eyes sparkle.

"How?"

The lieutenant general of the North China Front tempted that he had offered to send one or two divisions of the Kwantung Army to North China to be responsible for exterminating the guerrillas wandering in the rear.

"I will personally and the commander"

The lieutenant general of the Kwantung Army was clearly moved. In three months, 100 million silver dollars were collected, and there are definitely a large number of silver dollars hidden in the people in North China, and it is estimated that there are at least more than 300 million.

Such gains were enough to make the wealthy Kwantung Army blush.

"But does the Republic of China have so many silver dollars?" But he didn't think much of it.

······

"Hey"

Sitting on a hillside, Luo Yun looked at the materials in the warehouse and sighed deeply.

"It's so slow."

He counted before, and there were still nearly 170,000 tons of silver dollars in the warehouse, accumulating 6.4 billion quick silver dollars, that is, from the end of April to the end of September, only 1.1 billion silver dollars were spent in five months.

At this rate, it will take several years.

"No, no, you have to spend it faster"

Luo Yun thought about it, the third batch of supplies is coming, there must be hundreds of thousands of tons of silver at that time, and silver is no better than gold, as a currency capacity is limited, and the world's demand is also limited, as he invests more, it will gradually depreciate, although there are devils and a number of European and American foreign banks desperately sucking blood to maintain no depreciation, but there are too many of them.
