Chapter 245 Prohibition of Foreign Banks
[245] Foreign banks are prohibited
The German banker, who was introduced to Yao Fan by the German minister Barand, was called Adam.
The first time Yao Fan saw Adam, he noticed the little black hat he was wearing, the exquisite clover embroidery was secretly wrapped around the brim with silver thread, and playfully buttoned on the back of his head, Yao Fan was very worried about whether the hat would fall off as Adam raised his head.
"Hello, Mr. Adamu." Yao Fan politely stretched out his hand.
Adam's face was a little dark, his cheeks were ruddy, and his pale temples were neatly combed.
Seeing Yao Fan stretching out his hand, Adamu bowed slightly and shook hands with Yao Fan respectfully.
Yao Fan doesn't like respectful elders, and according to his experience, if this kind of socially experienced, noble and wealthy elders are too respectful to you, it will not be a good thing.
"Mr. Adam, you don't have to be polite, sit down and talk, Barland is my old friend, please treat me as an old friend, and tell me straight to the point that you are here." Yao Fan's sophisticated way.
A hint of joy flashed in Adam's eyes, and after complimenting Yao Fan a few words, Adamu said:
"On behalf of the Frankfurt Bankers' Union, I have come to pay the highest tribute to you, the founder of the greatest republic in the world today, to the President of the great Chinese Republic.
"Thank you, Mr. Adam, when you say the Frankfurt Bankers' Union, you mean the international banking syndicate headed by the Rothschild family bank?"
Adamu was stunned for a moment, and then smiled and said: "The noble Rothschild family has deep respect for you, and you have unified China with great wisdom and outstanding will, and all German bankers are happy for you." ”
He licked his lips and continued: "The Frankfurt Bankers Union would like you to allow us to open a bank in China and manage overseas trade settlements on your behalf.
Of course, if you wish, the banking syndicate headed by the Rothschilds can also provide you with domestic currency issuance and financial management.
Our financial management system has been operating in Europe for more than 100 years, providing central bank settlements and currency issuance to almost all countries in Europe, and our clients include all European princes and governments, whether they are monarchs or prime ministers, and we have a significant influence on them.
Our reputation is the best in the world. ”
As he spoke, Adamu quickened: "But it is up to you, Mr. Honorable President, but we do believe that in the rapid and increasing trade between China and Germany, there is a need for a bank with excellent credit to provide risk guarantees and credit payments for all transactions.
At present, China is at war, and in the face of such a huge war, are you not short of money? We are willing to provide you with a loan, with which you can purchase a sufficient amount of weapons and supplies to maintain your nascent regime.
Just as Mr. Blake of the Rothschild Bank supported Chancellor Bismarck in creating a Germany that would otherwise not exist, we can also fully support you and make your rule rock solid.
All in all, we can make you rich, Chairman Yao, and you don't have to worry about money anymore. ”
Yao Fan smiled: "Isn't the development momentum of Sino-German trade bad now?" China uses the state as the main credit subject to trade with German commercial banks, and this kind of credit is built on the basis of the state's financial guarantee and is unbreakable.
With the nationalization of the country's money banks and the establishment of a nationwide collection and storage system by the four newly established state-owned commercial banks, we are fully capable of providing financial support for Sino-German trade. ”
But what you say about wealth is very attractive, I personally have a salary from the state, and the Laborers do not seek to become rich personally, but our people do need to improve their lives, you can talk about it, how do you make the Chinese rich. ”
Adam thought to himself when he heard this: "This Yao Fan's mouth is full of nonsense, how can there be a leader in the world who doesn't love money, even if he doesn't love money himself and blocks the way for his subordinates to make money, his position is not stable." ”
"Now the whole of Europe is on the gold standard, because only the gold standard can protect the interests of the people, and only the gold standard can ensure that the wealth in the hands of the people does not depreciate day by day," Adamu said.
China used to be on the silver standard, but with more and more silver discoveries around the world, silver is no longer a scarce metal.
In other words, only gold retains its value!
If China issues a gold-standard currency, the credit of the Chinese currency will be as strong as the pound, the mark, the dollar, and the franc. China can buy any product from any country in the world with a gold standard currency. ”
Yao Fan directly interrupted Adam: "China has gold mines, but it is not rich in gold.
As a result, as the people produced more and more wealth, but the government did not have gold as a guarantee to issue enough money, this would lead to a shortage of money circulating in the market, causing deflation.
The economic concept of deflation was first discovered by Mr. Marx of the Central Party School of our country, if you don't understand, please read Capital.
Since gold represents currency, then we assume that if there is only one ton of gold in the whole of China, it means that this ton of gold represents all the social wealth of the whole of China, and if there is still only one ton of gold in China next year, and there is no monetary increase, then that is to say, all the national production in the past year has been injected into this ton of gold.
Whoever has gold in his hand, even if he doesn't have to do any work, can sit at home and exploit all the laborers of the country, and exploit the social material value of their hard work.
This is your gold standard! Mr. Adamu.
It's a robber trick of the bankers! It is a tool of the financial oligarchy to exploit the working people and the petty bourgeoisie!
China will never use the gold standard or continue the silver standard! China will continue to promote the process of currency creditization! Silver will accelerate the withdrawal from the market currency circulation, and the RMB paper # currency with government credit will become the only currency!
The People's Bank of China will never be privatized!
The People's Bank of China's currency issuance will be scientifically formulated according to the total amount of social wealth created by the people each year. At the same time, in line with the state of economic operation, a part of the government's fiscal revenue is used as a guarantee to reasonably control government investment, control monetary increments, and regulate inflation and deflation. ”
Adamu's whole body began to stiffen, he had never met such a socialist country, such a public ownership system, such a head of state who understood the economy.
All of a sudden, Adam Khan felt that the goal of his trip had gone far from him, and his hope of achieving it was extremely slim.
He said stiffly: "In this case, you will not be able to guarantee the value of the Chinese currency!" No one wants to sell their goods to a country with an unstable currency in exchange for a currency that could become waste paper at any moment! ”
Yao Fan said: "China has not begged other countries to export goods to China, although the People's Republic of China was founded not long ago, it has been in a trade surplus so far.
Even if we need to import goods, we can barter. ”
Adamu suppressed his inner anxiety and said, "Barter! That's too primitive, how can a modern country adopt barter! ”
Yao Fan smiled: "Whether it is primitive or not, merchants have their own evaluation criteria, of course, I admit that this is the last form of trade that bankers want to see." But so far, German imports from China have been paid for in gold, which is essentially barter, isn't it? ”
Adamu said: "This kind of trade will never last!" Germany needs gold as a reserve for currency issuance, and Germany does not have so much gold to continue paying!
Such a trade would be detrimental to German interests! The Frankfurt Bankers' Union will consider proposing to the German government to restrict or even cancel this trade, which is detrimental to German interests! ”
Seeing that Adam actually came up with a trick of intimidation, Yao Fan simply laughed and said: "Trade exists as a form of free circulation of commodities that you and I want, and the buyers and sellers exchange equal value on a voluntary basis, and I don't see any damage to Germany's interests."
In fact, Germany, as a middleman, resold Chinese goods and obtained more gold. ”
Adam was silent for a moment, then had to regain his soft figure again, and said: "Okay, Chairman Yao, then please at least allow the establishment of a foreign-funded bank in China, so as to facilitate the settlement of trade in China by merchants from Germany and even from all over the world." ”
"Banks are the lifeblood of the economy! Mastering the bank is the same as mastering the country! Until the country's banking system is basically perfected, the People's Republic of China will not consider allowing foreign banks to enter China for the time being in the next few years. ”
……………………
So the meeting between Yao Fan and Adamu broke up unhappily and did not reach any results.
The German minister, Barland, returned in a huff and did not say much. Although he hoped that Adam would be able to convince Yao Fan, as a shareholder of the Merris Firm, he was now making a lot of money by monopolizing Sino-German trade, and it was completely impossible for him to offend Yao Fan for the benefit of the bankers.
Yao Fan knew in his heart that Adam was actually a temptation to launch against himself by accusing the Jewish international banking syndicate from all over Europe.
Yao Fan has no prejudice against Jews, and as a persecuted ethnic group in World War II, he even has some good feelings.
This is a wise and lovely people who are money fans. Because the Christian doctrine does not allow usury, the Jewish nation has dominated the financial industry throughout Europe in the course of several hundred years of development, and the financial industry has almost become the foundation of the Jewish nation.
It is precisely because of the support of the Jewish banking group that a country that is difficult to gain a foothold in terms of ethnicity, region, law, and Taoism has emerged out of thin air: Germany.
More than 100 small states in the Rhine Valley, supported by the Jewish banking syndicate, instigated, financed and vigorously campaigned, united into a single Germany, which greatly facilitated the circulation of goods and finance in the region. It can be said that Germany would not have been a country without the covert planning and financing of the Jewish banking syndicate.
Similarly, Yao Fan is also very clear that money will destroy a person's conscience and reason, and large sums of money can even make people become beasts.
It was the total control of Germany by the Jewish banking syndicates, and the endless financial plundering of all classes, that led to the later expansion of hatred of the Jewish bankers in German society, and eventually to the entire Jewish nation.
The frenzied exploitation of industrialists and commoners by the gold standard of the Jewish banking corps, the plundering of the industrialists' industries by their firm control of the right to issue money, and the rampant use of all kinds of financial instruments and usury, finally brought the country they had created to stand up against their founders. It's really sad.
There is indeed no such thing as hatred for no reason, and prejudice and even hatred have their roots, although this root cause is silenced by the European and American media under the pleasant sound of money.
But the Chinese should still understand that the Chinese nation is also a persecuted nation, the Chinese nation is beaten because of backwardness, and the Jewish nation suffers because of excessive greed and cruel financial exploitation.
