Chapter 91: The Rhythm of the World Domination
Qi Mi introduced the principle and use of this phone to Cheng Lei, this phone is separated from the handset, so the shape of this phone is actually made by Qi Mi according to the most old-fashioned kind of phone in the previous world. The telephone line is also designed by Qi Mi, but because the technology is not particularly mature, the effect of the call is average, even this is very rare, at least to be able to talk, this is definitely a very big progress. In this way, as long as the telephone can be received, there is no need to send communication troops to run around, which not only saves manpower, but also increases efficiency, killing two birds with one stone.
The power plant has already started to generate electricity ten days ago, Cheng Lei's office was the first to connect the lights, and now at night, the Lion King base is brightly lit and particularly dazzling, and from a distance it looks like a city that never sleeps. This is the result of months of hard work by all the workers at the power plant, some of whom are preparing to build the power plant, and some of whom are installing poles and erecting wires in various parts of the Lion King base. Now, except for the houses in the residential areas that have not yet been connected to electricity, all the places in the Lion King base are illuminated.
Because they are militarized bases, lighting should also be prioritized in the military zone, which is something that must not be changed or compromised. Qi Mi brought this phone number to take the lead in connecting the first phone in each Cheng Lei office, because Cheng Lei is the No. 1 head of the Lion King Army and the Lion King Base, which is a must. Of course, the current telephone can not realize dialing, but the transfer base station type, pick up the handset, and then press a button to get to the transfer station, and then let the transfer station be responsible for the wiring to contact the place.
Qi Mi said that he has set up a special communication office to be responsible for the installation and maintenance of the telephone, and has also set up ten female soldiers as operators at the transfer station. This can also be seen from what Cheng Lei said about setting up some special departments to manage the affairs of various bases, otherwise, the three of them would die of exhaustion and don't know how to die.
This is an imminent priority, so Cheng Lei pulled the people in the current command center in his mind, as well as the officers in the army, and also searched for it. Approximately dozens of skilled and knowledgeable people have been collected, including those who handle government affairs on a daily basis or in the army. Cheng Lei immediately ordered these dozens of people, and strictly ordered that no one had the right to interfere with this order.
Under the careful discussion with Qi Mi, the command center of the Lion King Base was divided into two parts, one part is the command center of the Lion King Army, which is responsible for the command and operation of the Lion King Army. The other part is named the Base Government Affairs Center, which deals with all kinds of government affairs in the base, and is responsible for all factories and logistics, as well as all auxiliary units and residential areas. Cheng Lei's dozens of people transferred from the army and the original command center were to directly set up several departments in the government affairs center, one was the Ministry of Personnel, one was the Ministry of Commerce, one was the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, that is, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the other was of course the Logistics Department. These four departments cover almost all the government affairs of the entire Lion King Base, and later the four major households that were also known as the Lion King Base, which should not be underestimated.
In the government affairs center, there are also offices set up here in various factories and residential areas, and the office director is at least the second-in-command or third-in-command of the office, and it is changed every once in a while. The director of the office must work in the office of the government affairs center and must not return to his original factory to work. This is a very important location, and all the instructions issued by the government center for the factories below are transmitted from here to their factories, so it is very important.
In this way, Cheng Lei, Zheng Bin and Qi Mi don't have to do everything themselves, they only need to make a phone call to get someone from the government affairs center to do it, which is much more convenient and faster than before. As for the military command center, it has already achieved very fine and rigorous management, so now that the government affairs center has been established and improved, Cheng Lei and the three of them feel a lot easier, and they feel like a fish in water when they start their work.
Since Lion Bank is directly responsible to Cheng Lei, Lion Bank does not have a special office in the government affairs center. In two days, all the large and small affairs of the government affairs center were handled, and all that remained was to see how quickly the departments were officially operational. However, it is easy to run, but it is not particularly easy to work well. Therefore, in this regard, it depends on how the heads of those departments and offices deal with the relationship and coordination ability of all aspects, and all matters can be solved naturally, which is also what Cheng Lei hopes.
Duan Zhengming would come to the command center almost every other day to report to Cheng Lei on the current operation of the Lion King Bank and the specific situation. It can be said that Cheng Lei has seen Duan Zhengming more times now than Zheng Bin and Qi Mi, so Cheng Lei is also very familiar with Duan Zhengming. After Duan Zhengming came to Cheng Lei's office, he was no longer so restrained, but after coming in, he should sit down, drink tea when he should drink tea, and smoke when he should smoke.
When Cheng Lei saw Duan Zhengming coming in, he raised a document in his hand, meaning that he would talk about it after processing this document. Duan Zhengming nodded. Then while savoring the tea sent by the orderly, he lit his pipe, Duan Zhengming is a smoker, and Cheng Lei is nothing compared to him. He consumes a lot of tobacco leaves every day to stuff his pipe. And the reason why he smokes a pipe is very simple, that is, the flue-cured tobacco is too small to smoke and is not enjoyable at all.
Cheng Lei couldn't help but roll his eyes after hearing his explanation for the first time, because he had never heard of such a strange reason for smoking pipes, and Cheng Lei originally thought that Duan Zhengming was smoking pipes to hold a B all day long! After processing the documents, Cheng Lei stretched his waist, then lit a cigarette himself, took a deep breath, and said: "Old Duan, how is the bank recently, how are the savings and lending situation?" ”
Duan Zhengming said: "General, I came today to tell you this. Recently, the savings situation has been relatively stable and rising, but now there are more retail investors, and large households have begun to decrease. Loans, Duke Bart of Vientiane City has lent us 800,000 gold victors, and the others are some large households that can repay, if you don't even Duke Bart, you will lend a total of about 1 million! ”
Cheng Lei nodded and said, "Well, it's okay, but you have to closely check all the property and other movable assets of the lender, as well as their previous debts, and lend to them when you can be sure that they have the ability to repay." ”
Duan Zhengming nodded and said, "Got it, general." And one more thing, that is, the country of Itos has asked us for an additional loan of two million gold victors, you see, what are we going to do? ”
Cheng Lei's eyes immediately showed a gleam: "What? They asked for a loan again, why didn't you tell me earlier? ”
Duan Zhengming rubbed his hands and said, "Because I strongly disagree with lending them again, it's hard to say whether they can repay it." Besides, our bank can be said to be quite empty now, what should we do if we really encounter an exchange turmoil? Besides, they mean that the interest owed to us by the country of Yituos alone is more than 1.3 million gold victors, according to our contract of settlement every three months, if the interest continues to roll, the country of Yitos will not be able to pay it back in the next life, and the general please think twice! ”
Cheng Lei smiled: "What I want is that they can't afford it!" Lao Duan, immediately contact the country of Itos, and say that we agree to lend to them, but they must promise us one condition, otherwise not only will the new loan be impossible to give them, but we will also have to return the previous loan immediately with interest! ”
As soon as Duan Zhengming heard this, he immediately came to his senses: "General, what are the words, they mean that there are diplomats specially stationed in our Lion King base in the country now, I will go and tell him immediately!" ”
Cheng Lei said: "Actually, it is very simple, that is, to tell them that if they want to continue to get loans from us and let us not recover the previous loans, then we must agree to go to their Yituos country to establish a bank." The ownership and management of this bank shall be ours, but it must be ordered by their Itos State, that is to say it shall be called the State Bank of Itos. And we will also issue paper money in the name of their national bank, which is called the Itos dollar, and the gold and silver coins of their Itos country will be gradually stopped in circulation in the past, and the Yitos dollar will be circulated in the future. Didn't they lend us money against their future national income, then we would use their future national income as collateral for the Itos dollar bills. In this way, they can rest assured that these banknotes will not be blank checks, but real national taxes. ”
Duan Zhengming has been learning about finance and the national economy with Cheng Lei and Qi Mi for a while now, so he can still understand what Cheng Lei said. He also took out a pen and recorded it to prevent himself from forgetting anything important at a critical time. Cheng Lei's method simply painted a very beautiful blueprint for Duan Zhengming, if they can really succeed, I am afraid that the economy of the entire Itos country will be in their hands. If they have mastered their national finances and cannot control their economy, I am afraid they are too weak.
After Duan Zhengming recorded everything, he went to the diplomat of the Lion King's base of Yitos. He wrote everything down on paper and asked the Itos diplomat to send the plan to the head of government of Itos in the form of a letter. Now I just wait for the reply from Yitos's side, but Duan Zhengming feels that he wants to be half-opened, because who would agree to put his country's finances completely in the hands of others and be manipulated by others. However, Cheng Lei also said that if they did not agree, then the Lion King Bank would withdraw from their Yituos country and recover all the loans with interest. This is completely unbearable for the Itos, and it can be said that it will kill them if so much money is recovered!
However, they used the guarantee of the Western Empire as the basis for the original loan, and if they did not agree and did not repay the loan, Cheng Lei would inevitably find the Western Empire, after all, it was the loan they guaranteed in the first place. In the end, if it gets into trouble in the World Federation, I'm afraid that the faces of the Western Empire will not look good, and they will inevitably help the Itos to repay the loan. It's just that at that time, I'm afraid that the Itos will be subject to both military and economic sanctions from the Western Empire!
The economy of the Itos country has become weak because of the invasion of the Balen'ou, and if they are punished by the Western empire again, they may not have a way to survive at all, and the domestic economy will inevitably regress by twenty years, which no one in the Itos wants to see. Therefore, Cheng Lei has a problem for the government of Yitos country, if they don't want to be economically sanctioned, even if Cheng Lei's request is a cup of poison, they have to grit their teeth and pour it down, there is no way, people have to bow their heads under the eaves!
Cheng Lei thought about all the possible and impossible things and various special circumstances in this confrontation with the country of Yitos. If the Itos suddenly make any unexpected moves, can Cheng Lei adapt to minimize the risks involved? This is what Cheng Lei needs to consider and think about, this is also the difference between a handsome person and those who only need to carry out orders, he must consider it comprehensively, and make a comprehensive calculation to ensure that he is invincible, at least there will be no damage to his side.
Many times Cheng Lei has the idea of wanting to go out for a walk, because the current pace of work is simply too fast and the work intensity is too great. All the big things in the Lion King's base have to be decided and planned by him, which is simply too brain-consuming. Cheng Lei really wants to be a shopkeeper now, and then wait for a while to come back. But can he do that? No, because this is his choice and his lifeline.
Qi Mi broke in at this time: "Captain, our car assembly line is now running, and many parts that used to require a lot of manual time can now be made with electrical equipment!" It's really too fast, you don't even see it, it only took half a day, and a car on an assembly line completed most of it. We have a total of five assembly lines, and if we say three shifts 24 hours a day, we can produce about ten cars a day without special circumstances! ”
Cheng Lei silently calculated in his heart, ten units a day, and only three hundred units a month. It seems that the assembly line designed before is still a little outdated, and in his heart he will produce at least 1,000 units a month, which is the real ability to meet his expectations. But now it's good to get there: "Well, good, let's get the workers to work at full capacity!" We're going to sell cars all over the world, and then we want to sell oil and fuel all over the world! I want to make the Lion King Yuan the most valuable and valuable banknote in the world! ”
Qi Mi looked at Cheng Lei in a daze, although Qi Mi knew Cheng Lei's lofty ideas before, but now it is the first time to hear Cheng Lei say it so openly. Cheng Lei is really going to play big this time, whether it is to lend money to the Itos people or want to sell cars and fuel to others, of course, the power of the power plant also wants to monopolize the entire Liedong Federation, this is simply the rhythm of wanting to dominate the world!
