Chapter 634: The Other Side of the Abyss Alliance

Li Mengyang, the emperor of the Pacific Empire, mentioned a piece of history to a group of dignitaries at the meeting, that is, the alliance of the Yuanyuan, and he actually said that this was a clever means, especially the New Year's coin, which was scolded by countless people, and paid tribute, he actually said that this was a powerful economic means......

Isn't that too much?

"Comrades...... "Li Mengyang, the emperor, he said this:

The year coin is a year, how much gold and silver are given to the Liao country in the north, as well as silk, silk or something, in fact, these things can be regarded as currency, that is, money.

By the way, because the ancient silk itself was not worn, it was actually a hard currency, and this thing could be used as currency, or actually the main currency, which is really like this.

In ancient times, let's say the Song Dynasty, copper money is money, then this money is made of copper, but every emperor will make money when he comes to power, and every time he makes money, this amount, the content of copper, is different.

To put it bluntly, the copper coin is unstable and fluctuates greatly, and later Cai Jing was scolded to death because the money system was too damaged...... In fact, Li Mengyang really has to complain about some YY historical novels, because it mainly uses money, and it is also consistent...... It's always 1,000 coppers, you take it and try it, it's strange if you don't get tired to death!

The ancients were very smart, so they wouldn't be so stupid to bring money on their bodies, and what they usually bring is actually silk, because this thing is easy to use, and it is stable and light...... In fact, before the Ming Dynasty, it was like this, and it was all in junior high school history textbooks, and silver became the main currency in the Ming Dynasty...... And the money, copper. In fact, I put it at home and put it in a big urn, which is called saving money...... During the Tang Dynasty, there was an emperor who sent troops to dig in the homes of those landlords because everyone saved money and there was no copper in the market......

Of course, Li Mengyang just gave you a brief explanation of these things. Anyway, it is these New Year's coins of the Song Dynasty, which can be completely understood as money, all money, and these coins ......

Well, from this point of view, the gratuitous aid proposed by this guy Li Mengyang is indeed much stronger than the Song Dynasty's New Year's coin, at least it is not humiliating, we are gratuitous. Then the Song Dynasty didn't lose and still had to pay tribute.

So, is this what Li Mengyang wants to say? Compare yourself to be smarter than the emperor of the Song Dynasty?

Of course not!

What Li Mengyang wants to say is actually the other side of this year's coin......

The New Year's currency does sound very humiliating, but this thing is the hard currency circulating in the Northern Song Dynasty, that is, currency!

Well, the currency of the Northern Song Dynasty. When you arrive in Liao, what will happen?

We can totally imagine it. For example, after the silk thing arrives in the Liao Kingdom, it is of course a good thing, and the nobles of the Liao Kingdom must like to use it, but after all, this thing is a kind of currency, and you can make clothes. What if the clothes were almost done?

It can only be circulated, and, soon, it will be discovered that this kind of thing, this silk. It can be exchanged for a lot of interesting things!

If nothing else, food can be exchanged, right?

Can the porcelain be exchanged?

And iron!

The nomads of the north, they are almost blank in handicrafts, and there is almost nothing else.

So, what does this produce?

Trade!

So, this thing came out, this is the market!

What did this produce next?

All kinds of trade with Liao in the Northern Song Dynasty have come out, so let's take a look, there are a lot of things that can be sold in the Northern Song Dynasty, right?

So what can Liao sell?

Furs, horses, or some grain, or some jade, or wood, and the rest...... It can be said that there are very few, and almost all of these commodities are raw materials!

Only export raw materials, that means that there is no way to develop industry, even if it is a handicraft industry, and besides, the horse can be sold casually? That's the most advantageous strategic material in Liao, so you can't sell it!

As a result, it is normal to form a very natural trade surplus!

The Northern Song Dynasty has such a big surplus, in fact, the Northern Song Dynasty, whether it is official or private, has gained a lot of benefits because of this field and foreign trade, and this benefit is definitely much more than the annual coins he gives out in the Northern Song Dynasty!

It's very simple, because that money was given by the Northern Song Dynasty, but this money has gone through the operation of the market, and it will be doubled, and it will be doubled after a circle, and then continue...... And in order to get these benefits, isn't the Liao Kingdom exchanging everything? Sell everything?

And Liao's life is also good and comfortable, so it will rely more on this trade, and Liao's own products are not too favorable, and there is no complete competition, so they have to rely on this year's coin.

So, in fact, every year the Liao Kingdom is really praying for a year-old coin, because with this thing, they can live a better life. For Liaoguo, this thing is like a DU product, and you can't quit if you are addicted!

The final result is also like this, does the original army of Liao still exist?

When Yan Agu started his army, what had become of the Liao Kingdom? Can there still be a war?

And the Northern Song Dynasty, because of this year, not only has its own domestic economy developed, but also has not fought any more wars with the Liao State for so many years!

Isn't this a clever method? Isn't it amazing?

But it's ...... Li Mengyang is also very clear.

"Actually, the ruler of the Northern Song Dynasty, let's just say Zhenzong, he saw this benefit, and he personally experienced it, but he didn't see how much benefit this thing had, and this guy was still an idiot, and he felt ashamed, and then he tossed it blindly......"

"Hahahaha......"

Li Mengyang said that this is the real thing, Zhenzong has made a lot of jokes because of this matter, of course, there are still people who provoke it, such as that Wang Qinruo, this guy is not a thing at all. So Zhenzong is going to do something to seal the Zen ceremony, what auspicious gifts are offered in various places, what persuasion is done, and the result is simply hehe.

In fact, if Zhenzong doesn't engage in this set of feudal superstitions to find his own face, and even if he really wants to see it clearly, he simply increases, increases, and increases the New Year's coins, then the Liao Kingdom will be defeated by the Northern Song Dynasty sooner rather than later!

This is actually the earliest Marshall Plan, the earliest capital export, and the earliest economic war in human history......

Of course, about this matter, not only at that time, but also in later generations, Li Mengyang knew, isn't that also a lot of people scolding this year's coin, and there are many people who scold a certain big organization's foreign aid, and they will exempt anyone's loan in one piece, or tighten their belts to aid such and such a brother country......

Actually, it's a tightening of the belt, but what has to be returned, where is the aid that can be compared? What's the point of forgiving the loan? That's a drop in the bucket!

It's just that many people don't understand it, and there are many people, especially those who are well-known big V or something, they scold this, but when it comes to the Marshall Plan, and then they slap the sycophants of other US imperialists, they don't know that we in China have actually engaged in a lot of little Marshall plans, and they still scold non-stop, which is ridiculous.

Now, Li Mengyang brought up this matter, what he was thinking was......

"Comrades! What is the international currency at this time? Li Mengyang finished telling this history, and then asked such a question.

"Pounds!" The answers were unanimous.

By the way, it is the pound sterling, although the pound has declined a little, but it is still the world's currency!

Let's just say that before the war, the pound's international status was much more awesome than gold, and the international settlement currency was the pound, and in the field of international circulation, the pound accounted for two-thirds!

And a big war, the status of the pound has been somewhat reduced, but it has not completely lost its strength, it is still very strong, although Britain is carrying a lot of debts, but after all, Britain is currently the world's first power, which we have to admit, people do have a foundation.

So......

"Comrades! So if we aid Europe free of charge, to help Europe rebuild, what are we helping? ”

"This ......"

"Your Majesty! I understand! ”

"That's right!"

"Hahaha......"

Got it, finally got it!

What we are helping is money, our new Tang Yuan!

The currency of our Pacific Empire, the New Tang Yuan, has entered Europe before, and there is a currency swap, but after all, the amount is small, and now, we can make the amount of our currency larger through assistance.

Then, this can fundamentally shake the position of the British in the international financial system, and this can really hit the world's number one power!

Moreover, the truth in this is actually very simple, our New Tang Yuan has passed to Europe, so Europe is now in ruins, they want to buy things, so, use the New Tang Yuan to go to the UK to buy things?

Obviously, it can only come to us, and this money is most useful to us, so isn't this the same as in the Northern Song Dynasty?

That's right, it will definitely promote the development of the productive forces of our Pacific Empire!

What a good thing, this is definitely a big policy in the near future!

So, Li Mengyang made this suggestion at the National People's Congress, and then it was passed, it is really not easy to understand this matter, especially in this era.

But though, it's finally over, and this future is over, so naturally wait for the benefits to come by yourself......

But......

"Your Majesty! Oh no! Western Xinjiang is invaded by the Russian army! ”

"What?"

A telegram was sent to Li Mengyang...... (To be continued.) )
