483: Stimulate consumption
In later generations, when did you see the government short of money? This is simply not possible in the future, and countries will always have different ways to solve this situation. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The solution of the United States is to issue treasury bonds, and then let the countries of the world buy them, of course, the people can also buy them, but those countries are the main force, and when the funds are sufficient, the United States begins to use various means to make the other party's currency appreciate, so as to reduce the amount of repayment.
That is to say, the current exchange rate is 10:1, so through this series of operations, the exchange rate is reduced to 9:1, or 8:1 before repayment, then correspondingly, the United States gets ten dollars, but in the end you only need to pay back eight or nine dollars plus some interest.
A few years ago, Wang Sirui agreed on a repayment agreement with the powers, that is, the idea of playing the exchange rate difference, and after the outbreak of the European war, when he went to repay, the amount he actually repaid was hundreds of thousands of times less than what he received.
And China's way to encounter this problem in later generations is to print money and force the currency to depreciate, in order to deal with the U.S. plan, although it will cause a certain amount of inflation, but at least the country has not suffered too much loss, the total issuance in 2014 is 120 trillion, and it is expected to exceed 200 trillion in 18 years, so it is impossible for the government to have no money in its hands.
But this time it is facing the country, and the government must not do this, because it is a decision to destroy the city wall.
Well, the best way to solve this problem, there is only one left, to stimulate consumption.
"Stimulating consumption?" Song Wen was slightly stunned, but soon understood the meaning, stimulating private consumption, which will make the circulation of goods and funds stronger, the flow of merchants' factories will be larger, and the profits will be more, in turn, they will need to pay more taxes.
Stimulating consumption is tantamount to directly increasing the country's fiscal revenue, and if the state allows the use of bonds to pay taxes, it is equivalent to offsetting this part of the debt in advance, plus there will be new dollars invested in it every year, even if the money in hand has not actually increased, but the amount to be repaid has decreased a lot.
And more importantly, if the economy is developing fast enough, then the bank must also increase the amount of money printed and printed accordingly, at this time there will be no inflation at all, because the development of the economy is linked to the total amount of money, if the total amount of money is not enough, it will seriously drag down the progress of the economy, and vice versa, the two must be reasonably matched, only in this way can we ensure that inflation can be controlled within the scope of control, will not have too much impact on life.
"Yes, not only to stimulate consumption, but also to involve state capital this time, using the profits of state capital to offset this debt." Wang Sirui nodded.
"No, you can recover some of the bonds, but the government always spends it, right? Before a large amount of money was printed, even if these bonds were in the hands of the government, they still had to be spent, and when the time came, it would be equivalent to the total amount of bonds still not decreasing, even if there was the intervention of national capital, how much could it absorb? Tenth? In the end, we still have to redeem it with money. Wang Shizhen was a little confused when she heard it, thinking about it, wouldn't she still have to recover these bonds in the end?
"Hehe, Prime Minister, this is not the case, these three billion bonds are bought by the people with money, in fact, these bonds are money, and we need money to buy the bonds when we recover them, so where does the money come from? Printing currency, every time we get back a bond, we print the same amount of currency, and then let these currencies circulate, and the market has stabilized, at this time, even if a large amount of money flows out, it will not have much impact on the market, and even help the market. Song Wen explained with a smile.
"This ...... Isn't this just stealing the day, which is equivalent to exchanging one dollar for two dollars in the hands of the people. Wang Shizhen understood what Song Wen meant, and immediately became a little angry, the dignified imperial government actually wants to do this kind of thing? If this gets out, what will be the consequences?
"It's understandable, but it's not entirely true, because these are indeed money, and five years is enough time for the empire to digest these bonds, in fact, it means that we will put the funds for the next five years in advance to use them now, and then evenly distribute them to each year, so the impact is not big. Moreover, with the recovery of the market and the improvement of the economy, I estimate that once the stimulation of consumption can be successful, let alone 3 billion, even 6 billion may not be able to meet the needs of the market. Song Wen continued to explain.
"This will be talked about later, anyway, you just need to know that although this will have an impact on the market, the impact is not large, and our purpose is to stimulate consumption." Wang Sirui put an end to this endless bickering.
Where can this kind of thing come from to be fair? If we really talk about fairness, then it is estimated that there is not enough time in a lifetime, why can the government print money endlessly, and then spend it lavishly? And the people need to work hard to earn a little money every month? Even if a common person works hard all his life, he can't afford the government's money printing machine to print at full speed for five minutes. Why?
In fact, no one is right or wrong about this kind of thing, it depends on how the upper echelons operate, and the so-called boiled frogs in warm water are this truth.
What will be the way China stimulates consumption in the future? What underpins the country's economy? It's real estate.
But real estate doesn't work in this era, and it doesn't change overnight. Therefore, the only way to stimulate consumption now is to start in the four aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation, but it cannot completely rely on the set of later generations, after all, the environment is different, the situation is different, so it is impossible to be the same.
So here comes the question, excavators......
"Food, clothing, housing and transportation, we have to start in these four aspects next." Wang Sirui spoke again, and the three people below also calmed down and listened carefully to Wang Sirui's instructions.
"These four aspects are inseparable from everyone, and we start from this aspect, it is also the most practical, the most effective way to stimulate consumption, next, the empire in Zhongjing to build a large garment factory, according to the model of the military uniform factory for production, but the clothing style to make changes, more practical, in short, is to let the people see after not moving, so that they have a desire to buy.
Food, bartender inn or something is not very reliable for the time being, but we can start with seasonings, such as edible oil, all kinds of seasonings, etc., the national highway is about to open to traffic, when we can set up a fleet to transport these goods to various places, now the conditions are good, the people are still very willing to eat this aspect.
What is the quality of housing in Zhongjing? I don't need to say more about this, who doesn't want to live in such a house? So, you can also use your brain in this regard.
OK, the factory has launched the latest bus model, the next to Beijing as a pilot, the opening of Beijing to Kaifeng, Beijing to Luoyang, Beijing to Xinxiang, Beijing to Xuchang four passenger lines, and then gradually extended to all the national highways to the area. Increasing the mobility of the regional population and allowing more people from underdeveloped regions to move around the developed regions can also stimulate consumption.
In addition, it is a private vehicle, E type car is very popular all over the world, in the early stage because of the domestic road conditions caused by insufficient sales, now the national highway is also repaired, you can use your brains in this regard, the domestic price is tentatively set at 1,100 yuan a unit, and fuel is the bulk of the money. If these plans can be implemented, then in five years, we will not even have to pay off our first debt, and these actions alone will consume a lot of debt. ”
Wang Sirui directly listed some detailed requirements in four aspects, in fact, it is only a few sentences to sum up, clothing diversification, so that people fall in love with dressing themselves, food diversification, accommodation quality, travel convenience, for some rich people, let them have their own private vehicles.
In China, there is no shortage of comparison psychology, and the price of the Model E in the United States has been reduced to 800 dollars, but what about the cost? It has been reduced from the initial 1,000 taels of silver to the current 700 yuan, and the exchange rate between the US dollar and the imperial currency has not changed much, it is still 0.7:1, so there is a lot of money in this, even if each unit is sold at a price of 1,100 yuan, what about the purchase tax? What about the cost of fuel and other expenses in the later stage?
1,100 yuan, for ordinary people is indeed a huge amount of money, but for businessmen, this is nothing, and now there are more and more rich people, if the price is announced, at least can be guaranteed to sell no less than 100,000 units instantly, and there are trucks, this is the necessities of factory transportation, before trucks were not sold to the public, their goods can only be transported by manpower, animal power, and the cost has also increased a lot.
And after people get used to this convenient life, they can't change it even if they want to, so don't look at the 3.6 billion debt that makes people breathless, but in fact, when you think about it, it's nothing at all, if you are scared by the 3.6 billion debt, is it still called the government? Even if you go to print money at full speed, you won't run out of money to pay off your debts.
Besides, if you don't start to accelerate the level of domestic industry, why do you occupy the colonies in the future? The occupation of the colonies was for the purpose of dumping goods, and the occupation of so much land in Russia would not have to worry about the money just by operating on it.
Therefore, no matter what the final outcome is, the development of the domestic economy is the most important thing, only when the domestic development is good, can we invade foreign countries, especially small Japan, Wang Sirui even can't wait. (To be continued.) )
