Eventually, after some deliberation and explanation, the name of the institution was established. Dusty ↗ ↙ ×? Net

Trade Union of the States.

This is an organization similar to the WTO in the previous life, although it is not so strict at present, but in Yang Mu's view, in today's general situation, it is already commendable.

Through such a trade alliance organization, Cangguo can give full play to its own advantages, strengthen its influence in the world through trade, and from another point of view, it is also a solid step towards the position of hegemon.

Immediately, the emperors of most countries agreed.

Although the terms have not yet been listed, according to the concept depicted by Yang Mu, everyone has basically accepted it in their hearts.

It is worth mentioning that the Jin State was the most supportive of the trade alliance of the states.

Why?

Although after this war, the Jin State was greatly injured, and the hegemony accumulated over a hundred years was wiped out, but the local heritage is still there, and its civil power cannot be underestimated.

Therefore, the establishment of the state trade alliance has a positive impact on the Jin state.

Also economically helpful, there are also Yun Guo and Mang Guo and so on, all countries have different thoughts, but in general they still have a supportive attitude.

So, the whole afternoon was busy.

Of course, Yang Mu would not let these people communicate in private, so after coming out of the Industrial City in the afternoon, he immediately held a warm-up meeting in the court hall.

The so-called warm-up meeting is actually mainly about discussing the trade alliance of the states.

As a result of the consultations, the countries first decided on the purpose of removing the barriers to trade between countries, protecting the legitimate rights of each country in trade, and establishing a complete and dynamic organization of truth that can be recognized by all countries through substantial tax reductions and other measures.

In short, openness, equality, and elimination of discrimination.

After that, there is some general framework discussion.

As for the details, then it must not be discussed immediately, and when this is obtained, the relevant persons in charge of each country will come up and discuss it together.

Now, all it takes is for the emperors to set the tone and put a big seal on this matter.

"Ladies and gentlemen, if you want to implement the ideas that have just been discussed, you actually need a major premise." At this time, Yang Mu suddenly said.

"Please also ask His Majesty Emperor Cang to make it clear."

"As I said before, there are several large silver mines in the land captured this time, and I don't know how much they contain, so it is really difficult to distribute, which means that the future transactions of the countries should try not to use silver."

Don't use silver?

Such a proposal really surprised the emperors of all countries.

Because, people really can't figure out what else can be used as currency besides silver.

Golden gold can be used for trading, but in practice, because gold is too scarce compared to silver, even in the same country, the exchange ratio of gold and silver is different, so it is more used as a collection, and there is no possibility of using it for commercial circulation.

So, what to trade with?

This was the issue that the emperors of all countries were most concerned about.

"As we all know, silver is like the grain in the field, it is mined and smelted from the ground, and the value of silver is not the same in different countries at present, in some countries one tael of silver can buy ten stone of white rice, while in some countries one tael of silver can only buy five stone of rice, which is really unfair in the trade of various countries. Therefore, I advocated the creation of a currency for circulation between countries. ”

"I can't agree to this matter."

"The Jin Kingdom is also powerless."

"I'm Dawei...... It's up to everyone. ”

"I agree with Kang Guo."

Cao Guo agreed.

Song Guo also agreed.

……

Before Yang Mu finished speaking, the emperors of various countries expressed their positions one after another, and the rich people in the countries who were rich in silver veins or the people were rich in them all resisted this proposal, and it was precisely those poor countries that strongly agreed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, listen to what I have to say." Yang Mu raised his hand, signaling everyone to be calm, and then said: "I also said just now that the adoption of a new currency as a transaction is only an idea of my Cangguo, and I do not want to force the rest of the countries to adopt this new set of currency. ”

Empress Ruan's eyes wandered, and she said lightly: "His Majesty Emperor Cang is a smart person, I didn't expect that we would object, just say something directly." ”

Yang Mu said: "Didn't the empress think that you, Ruan, could represent all countries?" Ladies and gentlemen, I can't hide that my Cangguo is trying to implement a set of its own currency in the country, and if you want to trade with your Cangguo in the future, you must exchange silver for Dacang currency. ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Just when everyone is concerned about whether it will damage their national interests, Cangguo actually wants to promote this kind of currency in its own country?

It's incredible!

Yang Mu took in everyone's expressions, but in fact, he was secretly happy in his heart.

Although the silver of each country can be exchanged for the new currency of Cangguo, doesn't it mean that the currency of Cangguo has become a currency equivalent to silver?

Taking the Bretton Woods system recorded in history in the previous life as an example, it is actually a gold exchange standard based on the US dollar and gold, which is essentially the establishment of an international monetary system centered on the US dollar, the basic content of which includes the US dollar being pegged to gold and the currencies of IMF member countries maintaining a fixed exchange rate with the US dollar.

In this world, there is no monetary organization or exchange rate and the like, when the currency of Cangguo is very strong, it is almost equivalent to silver, if the economy of Cangguo can be the first among the countries, then with its convenience, purchasing power and ability to avoid risks, it can make countries also compete for reserves, become a strategic reserve currency and circulating currency.

At that time, once the Cangguo dumped currency on a large scale in its country, or squeezed the value space of silver, then the consequences for it must have been catastrophic.

Of course, this belongs to the category of currency wars in later generations, there is no such precedent in this world, even if Yang Mu says it publicly, it is estimated that no one will believe it, and it is also thanks to Yang Mu who studied a little economics in his previous life, so he buried this dark chess in advance.

The concerns of the countries were eliminated, and the new currency was only issued in the country, and the matter of the monetary union of the states was basically set in the tone.

"Your Majesty, since your country is going to implement a new set of currency, why don't you let me wait and see?" Xiong Minne, the emperor of the state of Chu, said half-jokingly.

Yang Mu nodded and said with a smile: "I also have this intention, and I happen to appreciate it with you." ”

Then, he had a version that had already been designed.

This is a set of banknotes.
