In fact, there are all kinds of evening schools and tutorial classes for adults here in the Republic, but they are only for economic purposes, and only cadres and university students are qualified to study. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

Don't blame Li Yu for being stingy, the concept of economics is currently unique to the Chinese Republic. In the future, he also plans to take advantage of economic loopholes to severely trap several other forces, and naturally he does not want them to grasp the concept of economics.

Ancient works on the economy, including the Han Dynasty, only include the Book of Shang Jun, the Examination of Gongji, the Fu Guo Policy, the Salt and Iron Wheel, and the Guanzi. To put it bluntly, there are almost no real economics involved, or modern economics. These works embody the economic theory of feudal society, and now that they have gradually entered the capitalist society, these works are no longer of much help, and only "Guanzi" can still have some reference effect.

Li Yu dared to play socialism, and even fooled the northern family lords into entering the Roman republican model of capitalism, mainly because his ideology and theory took precedence over this era, and he was able to roughly grasp the controllable laws of social changes without considering those uncontrollable factors, coupled with the nature of socialism and the government's ability to regulate and control macroeconomically, he could avoid many problems.

In order to maximize benefits, simply put, it is to make it easier for himself, and Li Yu has to avoid the outflow of knowledge. However, this cannot always be effective, and the other party can find out for himself by observing Li Yu's governing policies. At the end of the day, the two sides will have to have fair economic dealings.

The territory suddenly expanded by more than three times, which greatly increased the maximum ceiling of Li Yu's prestige, but unfortunately it was only increased to five million points. Sure enough, it is not of much significance to only knock down Yangzhou, or even to say that it is only the four counties of Yangzhou.

On this basis, Li Yu felt for the first time that the prestige value was not a one-time replenishment. In the past, when I had 1.5 million points, I was in a state of slam almost every day, and even if I used it up, I could fill it up immediately after a day.

Now there is no way, the reputation points that can be earned every day are only more than four million points, and they have not even reached the upper limit of reputation points. Coupled with the restrictions of followers and admirers, it is already good to say that it is not enough to make up 500 points in two days.

The people in the newly laid territory have no sense of belonging to him, and naturally they are not his followers. For this reason, Li Yu can only find a way to expand propaganda, and the Ministry of Culture and Propaganda has begun to be formed, and this department combines the Ministry of Culture with the Propaganda Department, mainly due to Li Yu's lack of manpower. After that, the talent and the need are promoted, and then the two departments are separated.

The person currently in charge of this department is Cai Yong. was promoted from the director of the Education Bureau to the head of the Ministry of Culture and Propaganda, Cai Yong also trembled. Of course, what made him happiest was that Cai Yan was finally pregnant, which was the result of Li Wen's hard work before he set out. But Li Wen was complained by Li Yu for a long time, and he really went back and worked hard for a few days, but he really got killed.

Li Wen has descendants, so the Cai family's status in the republic is also deep-rooted. Of course, the two sides are also more entangled, and Cai Yong can only do his best for the republic.

Cai Yong took the position, and immediately set up a propaganda team to carry out propaganda in the local area according to the predetermined plan. In fact, the main thing is to create a god and shape Li Yu into a true god in the world who was sent down by the heavens to save the people of the world. Of course, this will not be said explicitly, but with the understanding ability of the people, the creation of gods is more effective than ordinary propaganda.

Li Yu certainly pays attention to propaganda, after all, this is related to the maximum degree of black technology he can dispatch. However, as the head of state, he needs to pay attention to too many things, and the most important thing at this stage is one thing.

"Minting? Although the republic has been established, is it too early to mint coins? Yuan Jian was called over by Li Yu and talked about coinage. It's just that I don't approve of it, in his opinion, this is Li Yu's great joy, and it is not beneficial to the country. In particular, when I heard that the three currencies of gold, silver and copper should be minted, I felt that it was unacceptable.

After all, the main currency used in these years was the five-baht coin, and gold and silver could be used as the settlement currency for bulk transactions, but the requirements for the purity of gold and silver, and even the style and purity of silver ingots, had hardly yet been formed. So the use of precious metals to settle this point is very controversial, and there is even a monetary unit called red gold, which is brass to put it bluntly.

"Not early, even a little eager! While the monetary problem has not yet formed, we should take precautions! Li Yu shook his head and motioned for Yuan Jian to sit down.

"This is the knowledge of the subordinates, please give the Führer advice!" Seeing Li Yu's serious expression, Yuan Jian realized that the situation was not so simple. So he confessed his guilt, and then sat down slowly and listened to what he was going to say.

"It's not a matter of teaching, I have some ideas, and you think it's necessary, so let's move on to a charter. If there is anything unrealistic, please point it out.

At the present stage, it is true that the republic is dictatorial to our cadres, but it cannot go on forever, and in the future, we will set up a people's congress on our own. Li Yu said with a smile.

Yuan Lian didn't expect Li Yu to have this plan, although he couldn't believe it all, but if he really didn't have this idea, he was afraid that the other party might not say it in front of him, and he still had some expectations in his heart.

"Okay, let's not talk about the main reason why I want to mint coins." Li Yu coughed lightly, "Yao Qing thinks that in this world, who has the qualifications and power to mint coins, and what about the issuance of five baht coins now?" What will be the impact if this continues? ”

When Li Yu asked, Yuan Jian couldn't help but be stunned, and then returned: "The people have been used to five baht money for a long time, and if they use new money, they will inevitably not get used to it." Moreover, the Han Dynasty did not have gold and silver currency, and if the gold and silver coins minted in our country were not recognized elsewhere, it would be the people and merchants who would suffer. As for the amount of five baht coins and what kind of impact it will cause, the minister's knowledge is shallow, and he dare not say anything! ”

"Is every copper coin made of copper? What is China's copper production? Li Yu asked again.

"It's not made of all copper, and the copper coins are too soft and too costly! As for the copper output, his subordinates don't know ......" Yuan Jian only felt a little ashamed, he had lived for so long, but he didn't understand anything other than scripture and agriculture.

"First of all, I want to make it clear that China's copper production is not high, and the key is that there are many copper mines that have not yet been discovered and mined. Even if all of them were mined, the output would not be able to keep up with the growth of the population and the needs of the economy.

In other words, the number of copper coins minted is a bit low. But now they are engaged in commercial activities, a large number of goods have begun to appear, but the number of copper coins has not kept up, what do you think will happen in the long run? Li Yu asked.

"Commodity depreciation!" Yuan Jian first thought of this, there are many commodities but five baht is less, so the only way for merchants to sell goods is to reduce the price.

"Not only that, but there are also a series of troubles when there is not enough copper money. The amount of copper money in people's hands decreased, but the quantity of goods increased. What you see is a depreciation of goods, but what I see is a loss of taxes. Those factories that have been losing money may close down if they can't bear it, and some people will lose their jobs.

This is not a problem of two factories, for example, textile mills, once a large number of textile factories fail, then cotton will not be sold, and cotton farmers may lose all their money.

Carpenters who make looms and ancillary equipment are also at risk of being affected, resulting in a series of bankruptcies and job losses. A large number of unemployed people need to be resettled, but the government has also caused financial problems because of this problem, and it will bring out a lot of problems in the future.

For example, there is no money to continue to pay salaries to soldiers, for example, there is no extra money for disaster relief or education. In the end, it is impossible for society to directly regress to what it was ten years ago, which is a bad thing about the economy and society! Li Yu said solemnly.

"Wechen is ashamed, I didn't think of such a distant problem." Yuan Jian did know that he was wrong, and his thinking did not keep up with the pace of social changes.

In the past, in an agrarian society, soldiers did not need to be paid, they only needed to be given a mouthful of food. Even as long as the grain is grown, the officials will basically have enough money and finances.

In addition, the soldiers are actually a group of cannon fodder, so they don't need such good weapons and equipment, and even if they do, they are given to a few elites, so they save a lot of money. There is almost no expenditure on education, no expenditure on scientific research, and generally speaking, the financial expenditure of the Han Dynasty in the past was only about 30% of that of the Republic.

Therefore, even if you do not develop business, you can still maintain the operation of the country.

But now it's obviously not going to work, and everyone is developing business. However, there are problems in export sales, and in the case of domestic sales, everyone continues to open factories without restraint, which leads to the hoarding of goods.

Generally speaking, as long as the export is turned into domestic sales, there is always a way to solve some problems. But there are not enough copper coins, too few copper coins are in circulation, which makes copper coins more and more valuable, but the money sent to the people is getting less and less. In such a situation, in the case of a copper coin and a piece of cloth, it is impossible to say that it will appear in the future, but how can a piece of cloth be produced with only one copper coin?

So the economy collapsed, a large number of factories closed, the key is that there will be problems with the government's finances, and the republic will not be able to maintain so many soldiers in the future, and the reduction of troops is an inevitable result. Even the government has laid off employees, and even closed schools and research institutes to reduce financial expenses or something. The end result is a social regression!

It is true that Li Yu is a bit alarmist, but if he does not take precautions, such a thing may not happen. Yuan Jian obviously realized this, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat behind his back. In the end, I have never seen the destructive power of the economy, and when I really see the tip of the iceberg, I feel that this thing is simply a giant beast!

Not developing? Of course it doesn't work, in the end, everything will return to the original state, some people may not care, but after getting used to the current life, if you want to return to the original living environment, Yuan Jian feels that he may also be a little unaccustomed.

"In addition, a large number of coins, especially the promotion of gold and silver coins, are also beneficial, and some hidden dangers can be solved!" Li Yu saw that he had frightened Yuan Lian, so he threw out the benefits.

"We're listening!" Yuan Jian suddenly sat down and replied solemnly. (To be continued.) )
