Chapter 201 Food Creates Wealth

The commercial companies of the Zhonghua Group Company in various countries sold the grain at a high price of 300 yuan a ton through Xiaofeng's transmission function, and made a lot of money first, and by the time those grain merchants transported the grain to the destination, the profit had dropped a lot, to the extent that it was only a little more than 200 yuan.

In this world, there will not be too much grain, and these grain merchants have also made a lot of money, of course, although they have also made a lot of money, those profits can only be regarded as a drop in the bucket compared to what Fang Xiaoyu sold. Others would not have thought that in fact, the cultivated land area of the entire Chinese Territory this year has doubled compared with last year, reaching 900,000 square kilometers, that is, 900 million mu of cultivated area.

According to the average yield of 700 kilograms per mu of land, although half of the land is used to grow fodder corn, vegetables and fruits, or other cash crops, the grain output has also reached 315 million tons. Half of them were produced by the agricultural reclamation companies of the Wild Continent, and all of them belonged to the Zhonghua Group Company, and the rest of the grain was grown by the people themselves, of course, these grains had to be paid 30% as taxes.

In addition to leaving grain for export to the non-agricultural population and trading with Siam and Lan Fang, nearly 10 billion yuan has also flowed into the farmers' pockets for the bulk grain trade in the territory.

Fang Xiaoyu absolutely follows the policy of hiding wealth from the people, this time the farmers have made a lot of money, the people are rich, and their purchasing power has increased, which will definitely pull the overall economy in the territory, with purchasing power, the output of industry will naturally increase significantly, which stimulates the industrial development in the territory.

Of course, in order to balance the hearts of those industrial populations and prevent the population from returning to agriculture from industry, Fang Xiaoyu used the funds of Zhonghua Group Company in his personal name to distribute a red envelope of 100 yuan to each non-agricultural population, which made the entire territory jubilant.

In fact, it is not a loss to distribute red envelopes to the people, everyone will naturally increase consumption when they have money, and the major companies in the Chinese collar are selling sharply, especially the China Group Company, Fang Xiaoyu even organized several activities to go to the countryside, and the various commodities that can be used in daily life are sold to the countryside in large quantities, earning high profits and prospering the economy of the entire territory, in addition to this, a benefit is that due to a large number of electrical appliances being bought by farmers, the demand for electricity in the countryside has increased greatly, This has greatly stimulated the development of the power generation industry in China.

In addition to the total of one billion Lanfang coins distributed to 10 million non-agricultural people, the Zhonghua Group Company, which sold grain at a high price, also had nearly 30 billion yuan left, which was almost the gross domestic product of the Saar Empire, which was currently the strongest national power, in the past two years.

Fang Xiaoyu began to use a large amount of foreign exchange in his hands to frantically exchange gold in various countries, which frightened the finances of various countries, seeing that the reserve gold of the treasury was shrinking rapidly, countries stopped the direct exchange of gold and paper money, but Fang Xiaoyu was already satisfied.

Within ten days, Fang Xiaoyu exchanged more than 20,000 tons of gold from various countries through crazy exchange actions, spending more than 2 billion Lanfang coins, making the currencies of various countries show signs of depreciation, which makes governments a little uneasy.

can't exchange gold, Fang Xiaoyu naturally won't let foreign exchange be smashed in his hands, with so much money, Fang Xiaoyu has to spend a lot.

Since there was no gold, Fang Xiaoyu mobilized all the commercial personnel in various countries to buy minerals, machinery, ships, and even companies, and Fang Xiaoyu hired talents from abroad with high salaries, whether it was scientists, teachers, engineers, or senior technicians.

Fang Xiaoyu's big action has caused a false prosperity in the economies of all countries, creating a false impression that the supply of products exceeds demand for major factories, and many factory owners have begun to blindly expand production, coupled with the return of a large amount of currencies from Fang Xiaoyu, while all countries praise Zhonghua Group for making great contributions to the economies of various countries, it also planted the seeds of economic crisis in various countries.

Also excited is the East China Trip, although the government has traded most of the collected grain with the two countries, in addition to supplying a large amount of grain to the two lords of Loulan County and Tubo County, who are friendly with them, but the financial revenue is still nearly 10 billion Lanfang coins more at once, which is not counting the extra taxes due to this large-scale trade, of course, the 10 billion gold obtained after trading with the Lanfang Empire was exchanged for Lanfang coins in Lanting Bank.

For the government of the Chinese collar with only tens of millions of financial revenues every year, the 10 billion yuan fund is like a poor man who is eager to break a penny into two petals, and suddenly wins the 5 million lottery.

First of all, a large number of railways, highways, bridges, and power station construction projects have been put on the agenda, and the construction of water conservancy and expansion of cities can not be relaxed, and scientific research needs to increase capital investment, and the same is true for education.

In addition, Huadong Xing also wanted to build another batch of warships, but this proposal was vetoed by Fang Xiaoyu. Now that the navy of the Chinese Territory is already very strong, if the large-scale purchase of new ships is easy to cause unease in all countries, once the powerful countries focus on themselves, then all kinds of small actions will emerge in an endless stream, at least they will encounter a lot of problems in business.

Fang Xiaoyu plans to take advantage of the fact that due to the large amount of money he has spent a lot of money, which has stimulated the economies of various countries in the Western Continent and the relations with other countries are gradually easing, he will bury his head in economic development, first lay a sufficient foundation for his own strength, and use the leading science and technology of other countries in the military to build a small and refined army, which will not only save expenses, but also appease the emotions of various countries, so that they will not stare at themselves too closely.

Although Fang Xiaoyu's opportunity came a little tricky, when the opportunity came, he did seize the opportunity to obtain the benefits he needed, not only taking the strategic Yizhou Island and Sulu Islands into his own hands, but also obtaining the decisive right to issue currency.

After three months of preparation, the Lanting Bank of the Chinese Territory was renamed the Bank of China, and at the same time announced the issuance of Chinese dollars, and officially entered the circulation market, and the price of gold was temporarily set at one ton of gold for two million Chinese dollars, in order to gradually break away from the economic control of the Lanfang Empire government over the Chinese territory, Fang Xiaoyu began to secretly support the use of more Chinese dollars in the territory, and try to use as little Lanfang currency as possible.

The reason why Huayuan has been prepared for such a long time is because Fang Xiaoyu asked Xiaofeng to specialize in banknote anti-counterfeiting technology and printing technology in order to prevent the appearance of counterfeit money.

With such a safe banknote, Fang Xiaoyu began to gradually exchange them in the territory, exchanging all the Lanfang coins used in the territory into Chinese dollars. Because Fang Xiaoyu and his Bank of China have a very good reputation, and the development of the Chinese Collar is so strong, the people are very happy to use the Chinese dollar, and the exchange work is going very smoothly, even the overseas Chinese are also enthusiastic to use the Chinese dollar, and with the current international status of the Chinese collar, all countries have recognized this currency one after another.

When China Lingda made a lot of money, the so-called double happiness came to the door, and Fang Xiaoyu's first child was finally born. Xia Tingwei gave birth to a boy for Fang Xiaoyu, according to custom, grandfather Fang Weihong named him Fang Ruijun, for this son, Fang Xiaoyu likes abnormality, of course, the military and political officials in the territory are also relieved.

In this world, the continuation of a potential force often depends on the heir of the leader, especially the potential force that has not been developed for a long time and has a shallow foundation, and the value that an heir can embody is even greater, as long as there is this heir, in the case of Fang Xiaoyu's accident, the entire territory will not be turbulent because of the differences of opinion of the parties, as long as this heir exists, even if Fang Xiaoyu is missing or dies, the territory can also continue to develop according to the previous trajectory.

With a new heir, the government and the military are more enthusiastic about their work than ever before. In addition, with the backing of the currency in his own hands, the economic development of the Chinese collar has accelerated again, and in the face of such a great momentum of development, Fang Xiaoyu intends to maintain a period of peace to accumulate strength, but unfortunately the sky does not follow people's wishes, just when he plans to bury his head in development, a new emergency occurred.

Fang Xiaoyu's plan for stable development did not last long, because two major events occurred in the world. Riots and civil wars broke out in both the Monte and San Martín empires, and the rebels soon swept through both countries with a fire.

The reasons for the riots in these two countries are not the same, the reason for the Saint-Martin Empire is simpler, mainly because of the last food shortage, the empire did not buy enough food, resulting in many people in the country starving to death, and then the royal family did not actively resume production caused a second disaster, resulting in a greater shortage of food in the country.

Under these circumstances, the decadent aristocrats in the country not only did not share the worries of the country, but on the contrary, they added fuel to the fire, taking advantage of the grain shortage to hoard and hoard, engage in speculation, raise grain prices, and force the broad masses of the people to survive, which led to a great uprising that spread throughout the country.

The situation of the Monte Empire is relatively special, since the last Lanmeng National War, Marshal Bayang returned from a great defeat, he has been ostracized by the royal family. The royal family's attempt to seize Marshal Bayange's military power through this defeat was only unsuccessful because Marshal Bayange's family was also very strong.
