Chapter 531: Resumption of Currency Trade
After the start of the war, the wages of the workers in the vast collective farms of the Soviet Union were greatly deducted in the form of taxes, and the compulsory labor of the farmers increased. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
A series of wartime reforms aimed at economic policy by the Soviet authorities did not affect the war island of Novgomel at all.
Yerentina asked another pointed question: "If we resume currency trade, the ruble and kopecks will be able to facilitate the exchange of goods that already exist between the villagers, or the existing labor division policy will be adjusted, and the currency will be used to buy food and daily necessities." Do we have enough currency to trade? A large amount of metal has long been taken back to the furnace, and the remaining large banknotes are not suitable for trade. Moreover, if some of the families of the villagers have more rubles, then they still need to continue to work? As long as you take the money for food, the rest of the time is passive.
I have never doubted the motivation of our people to produce, but people are easily lazy, and the more lazy they are, the less they want to work. The existence of such a black sheep is very harmful to us in public opinion. ”
Yang Mingzhi pinched his chin, the military problem is not a big problem at present. The Germans stepped up the construction of fortifications, and 7,000 men died in the First World War, so it is strange that they were not afraid of such losses.
The military threat has been greatly reduced, and economic development has become a top priority.
Her words are very reasonable, and Yang Mingzhi can't help but think of the "price defense war" when New China was first established. It is really a group of businessmen who are curious and strange to live in are driving up prices in a vain attempt to disrupt the economy of the nascent China.
Yang Mingzhi is certainly not an economist, but fortunately, in the education model of New China, a normal student will receive basic economic knowledge education in high school, and will be forced to study in college. These advantages are naturally not possessed by this Yelenkina, and her persistence and worries are not difficult in Yang Mingzhi's opinion.
"Originally, the workers of the collective farm in the blacksmith village were paid, but now they have become a division of labor. I used to be in the Far East, and Besika and I also received military allowances, and the money we saved bought a lot of good things in Yekaburg, such as women's underwear, which I still wear on her, even Natasha. ”
He said it so calmly that Yerentina and Yevlov were amused.
"I didn't expect you to have this foresight, if you still have spare at home, how good it would be to give me one." Yerentina had retreated with the army, and she had too little with her. The necessities of a woman have long been consumed, and in the war they are all fought by a group of men, and the women in the village are very poor, and she can only envy them.
Yang Mingzhi nodded, the hairy woman was as bold as ever, and she did not shy away from the private topics that were suddenly raised.
He continued: "The fact that prices in the Soviet Union were low and the commodity economy was not developed was due to many reasons, not because of our system. In fact, he wanted to say in his heart that the current Soviet Stalinist model was the main culprit in suppressing economic prosperity, and this woman who finally grinned should not provoke her.
"Your words do make sense, because some people are willing to keep their money in state-owned banks, and some people stuff it in small wooden boxes at home. Today, the city's banks have long been looted by the Germans, but those who keep money at home have survived. In order to avoid a series of unnecessary troubles, we can resume currency trade, but we should not continue to use rubles and kopecks. ”
Yerentina's eyes lit up: "So, we are going to develop a new currency?" ”
"That's right! I believe that this as a substitute for the exchange of work points can not only stimulate the economy, but also solve the various redundant situations caused by the exchange of work points. ”
"And what about the ruble? Can I still use it? Yerentina continued.
"Suspension, of course, even though it's legal tender." Yang Mingzhi scratched his head and continued to think about it according to this line of thought, and some new problems had to be faced. "We have long since begun to make paper from wood pulp and clay in order to print a kind of ticket, relying on the credibility of the army, or simply having the staff of the Novgomel City Committee, hold a meeting to determine the validity of such a ticket, even if it is not recognized by law. In these extraordinary times, I think it's acceptable only in our corner of the world. ”
Yevlov nodded, "I also think Berekov's words make sense." ”
"I see that you always think that his words make sense, so raise your hands and agree." Yerenkina gave her a blank look, but in fact, she listened to it quite reliably in her heart.
The 284th Guards Division, which occupies the swamp, relies on the swampy mud pond and the river moat, and here is indeed "the sky is high and the emperor is far away". Although he was simply abandoned by his superiors and stayed in the occupied area to fight guerrillas. Such a war should have been particularly hard, but in Novgomel, three collective farm settlements, the threat of death from the war was not acute.
Yelenkina felt that no matter what kind of policy was adopted, as long as the productive energy of the whole people was mobilized, and all kinds of necessary things could be produced and manufactured, it would be the best policy. She knows that the relatively peaceful time will not last for a few months, and this Berekov wants to carry out reforms, but also for the next greater action, is this man going to attack Kyiv? There's nothing he doesn't dare to think about or do!
"As for the resumption of the currency trade, the issuance of a new currency, as a reward for the arsenals, the various artisanal workshops, and the peasants of the land, we must decide at a meeting. Because of the lack of legal basis, the meeting had to be attended by someone like Lyudbalev, and when we decided on the reform plan, we had to report it to the front by telegram. Either way, we should be led by our superiors. ”
"It's very should." Yang Mingzhi nodded. Because it was too far away from the Soviet authorities, separated by hundreds of kilometers of enemy-occupied territory, the front line was another bloody war after another. In this swamp, it is easy to breed mountainism, which Stalin could not tolerate the most, and that man would not tolerate anyone challenging his authority.
After talking for a long time, Yang Mingzhi was also thirsty. One of the guards playfully brought a cup of water and filled it with hot water.
After drinking it beautifully, Yang Mingzhi was shocked to see that this Bafra was still being held, how to solve her problem?
Yang Mingzhi continued to ask: "Yelenkina, when did you decide to hold a meeting with the people of the municipal party committee?" I think we have to make a plan quickly, as soon as possible. ”
"If you think it's okay, just afternoon. Originally, you said that you wanted to sit in the arsenal and build a shocking weapon that could be put into actual combat. I guess your focus has to be adjusted now. ”
"Of course, under the current conditions, it is difficult for individual excellent weapons to form a killer weapon that will decide everything, and the source of our victory is still the support of the people. Economic reform must have not only the mass production campaign driven by patriotic and vengeful convictions, but also the incentives to work hard with sufficient pay. If there are no problems, I hope to have a meeting this afternoon, starting in a few hours. ”
"Yes." Yerentina agreed.
Yang Mingzhi pointed his finger at Bafra again, "What are you going to do with this woman?" ”
Yerenkina waved her hand: "Of course, release it on the spot." This woman is also a good worker anyway, and she still has to raise children. Berekov, you have already convinced me, so the previous words of this woman are not only not wrong, but are reasonable feedback from the people. Being able to listen to different opinions, and then analyze problems and make adjustments is my job as the political commissar of the division. ”
When Yang Mingzhi heard this, he suddenly turned around and shouted at the soldiers: "What are you still doing in a daze, release this woman quickly!" ”
