Chapter 108: Getting Some Funds (Part II)
"You've done a good job, go outside and get me a big knife." Wang Liang gave a thumbs up to the soldiers, this kid can find it if he looks so carefully, and he can find it in such a hidden place.
"Eh, yes!" After the soldier got Wang Liang's praise, it was like being beaten with chicken blood, and he happily ran out to find a big knife.
Wang Liang used the back of the blade to constantly scratch the gap between the bricks on the ground, and when the blade sank into the deep cracks of the bricks, Wang Liang dug the side, and the bricks were pried open.
After removing a few floor tiles, Wang Liang's eyes flashed with golden light.
Damn, this Anqing Gang is really fucking rich!
The first thing that catches your eye is the ocean, and there is a brown paper bag next to it. Wang Liang's attention was completely attracted by these oceans, and he threw the cowhide bag aside.
Wang Liang picked up a large ocean and checked it, according to the weight and length, it was estimated that there should be forty oceans in it, and when Wang Liang began to take it out from Dongli, he was even more surprised.
Because this 0.5mx0.5m hole looks a little bottomless.
One, two, three, four, ninety-nine, one hundred, one hundred and fifty-four, one hundred and fifty-five!
There are 155 oceans in it!!
Wang Liang tore open a strip and counted it carefully, it was exactly the same as his estimate, there were no more and no less than forty oceans in one.
That's 6,200 oceans.
Wang Liang's heart was simply happy, and he became so rich in an instant.
Of course, this kind of thought is just a flash, and although 6,000 yuan sounds like a lot, you must know that there are more than 1,400 people in the independent battalion at the regimental level, and this amount of money is very little on the average of each soldier.
There are only four or five oceans per person, and this amount of money can't comfort the pain of the families of the sacrificed soldiers, but that's all Wang Liang can do.
Wang Liang's eyes fell on the kraft bag that he had just ignored, and when he opened the kraft paper bag, he saw that there were some fiat currencies inside, all of which were in denominations, and there were six stacks of them.
That's 600 sheets, 6,000 yen!
Wang Liang, who majored in military history, of course knew the value of these banknotes, which were completely equivalent to the pile of oceans just now!
Fiat currency is the currency issued by the Nationalist Government during the Republic of China.
On November 4, 1935, it was stipulated that the banknotes issued by the Central Bank, the Bank of China, and the Bank of Communications (later added the Peasant Bank of China) were used as legal tender, and the circulation of silver was prohibited, and the legal tender of national credit was issued to replace the silver yuan of the silver standard.
The silver and silver dollars stored by various financial institutions and private enterprises are uniformly collected and exchanged by the central bank, and at the same time, the exchange rate of legal tender is equal to 1 yuan equal to 1 shilling and 2.5 pence of pounds.
After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the government implemented a foreign exchange control policy, and the fiat currency became the paper money standard. Other banknotes are withdrawn within a time limit. It also stipulates that all public and private funds must be received and paid in legal tender, and the market silver yuan shall be nationalized and exchanged for one legal tender and one silver dollar.
The fiat currency is initially pegged to the British pound and can be exchanged at designated banks without limits. In 1936, after negotiations between the Nationalist Government and the United States, China sold silver to the United States in exchange for foreign exchange reserves issued in US dollars as legal tender, and the legal tender was pegged to the British pound and the US dollar.
Generally speaking, in 1937, the largest face value of fiat currency issuance was the yuan, and the issuance was not large, so one fiat currency was equivalent to a piece of ocean.
As for the later period, it was purely the Nationalist Government's own death, and from 1941 the banks under the jurisdiction of the Nationalist Government began to print fiat currency unscrupulously, with a face value of up to 10,000 yuan! The number of issuances is even more staggering, so the depreciation of fiat currency is also a natural thing.
In 1937, a piece of ocean (i.e., one fiat currency) could buy 20 catties of rice or 21 catties of flour, or 5 catties of pork, or 6 catties of sugar, or 40 eggs. Fifty pieces of ocean (fifty fiat currency) can buy a large cow. (Prices vary slightly from region to region, but the difference is not too large.) )
In this way, Wang Liang can transfer the pension of each fallen soldier to six oceans, and the independent battalion has fought so many beautiful battles in Wanping, and then fight for the military department to make up the arrears of military salaries, and each soldier can probably get more than a dozen oceans.
Wang Liang believes that for rural people who live very frugally on weekdays, a dozen oceans can allow them to live in peace and stability for two or three years.
After packing Dayang into a sack, Wang Liang handed it over to Zhang Fei.
As for these banknotes, Wang Liang requisitioned them, presumably Yuan Liuliu would not have an opinion.
When he returned to the hospital, the soldiers sent by Xia Fangguo had already changed into hospital gowns and scattered in all corners of the corridors of the hospital.
Because of the large number of wounded coming down from the front line, there are simply not enough beds in the hospital, so the sudden appearance of many patients in the corridor is not unexpected.
"Camp Commander Wang, we met just now, Camp Commander Xia sent me to the hospital to keep an eye on it, and the tasks were arranged for me to understand. I am at your command in all my actions. It was the platoon commander who shot Yuan Liuliu's younger brother in the courtyard just now, and he changed into a hospital gown at this time, but he still couldn't hide the violent aura on his body.
Fortunately, the vast majority of the hospital are wounded soldiers from the battlefield, and they inevitably have a murderous aura, which is not noticeable.
"Okay, you must keep an eye on the special ward, and you can't make the slightest mistake, and you will have to work hard tonight, brothers. I don't think the Japanese will hold back for long, and it is estimated that they will take action in the next two days, so you should be vigilant. Wang Liang patted the platoon commander on the shoulder and admonished.
Wang Liang is good at empathy, and from the perspective of Japanese spies, the longer the time drags on, the greater the danger of the mission.
In order to avoid long nights and dreams, the sooner you act, the better.
The platoon commander touched the pistol pinned to his waist, and looked vicious as hatred, "Don't worry, Battalion Commander Wang, as long as the little Japanese dare to come, my brothers will never let them go out alive." ”
"Okay." Looking at the platoon commander's confident appearance, and thinking of their well-trained appearance yesterday, Wang Liang knew that his worries were unnecessary.
Looking at that bag of hemp, Wang Liang didn't have the time to take care of this, thinking that Zhang Fei was trustworthy, Wang Liang told him about his distribution of pensions, and Zhang Fei naturally raised his hands in agreement.
"Battalion commander, I really didn't expect you to be so kind, I thank you for the brothers." Zhang Fei's words were very sincere, and he had also thought about the pension, but he also knew the current situation.
If Camp Commander Jin hadn't been so seriously injured, he might have been able to get some money by contacting Captain Ji Xingwen.
