The gramophone was found by the company's collection team from an antique shop, and found three of them, as well as hundreds of records from different periods. Unlike the material collection teams under the direct jurisdiction of the management committee, which collect various machinery raw materials, the collection teams of trading companies are aimed at various daily necessities and goods that can be sold in the new plane. The survivors are accustomed to digital gadgets, so they naturally look down on such antiques, but for the British, the gramophone is a big killer. With the meagre entertainment of the nineteenth century, a machine that could play a symphony at any time was nothing short of a sea advance. It's a pity that the survivors don't have the technology to make records now, otherwise this would be an opportunity to transmit Chinese culture to the West, starting with music.

Looking at Sparrow, who was intoxicated by the sound of music, Wu Fusheng did not doubt the market for phonographs at all. Westerners in East and West Asia may be able to have a rich material life, but the spiritual life is certainly not as good as that of Europe. When the song was over, Wu Fusheng asked Sparrow, who came back to his senses, "How is it?" Mr. Sparrow, do you think this item will be a hit with your fellow citizens? ”

"This product can only be described as a miracle!" Sparrow didn't belittle the other party's goods as usual, he knew that it was useless to belittle, it was a seller's market now, people would definitely not reduce the price, and this item was certainly not cheap. And Wu Fusheng's offer really did not disappoint him, a gramophone plus ten records of 880 pounds. Sparrow only thought about it for a minute before agreeing, he believed that the next one would take over, and it would not be a problem to sell it for more than a thousand pounds, but unfortunately there was only one.

After two days of selection and comparison, Captain Jack Sparrow finally spent all his capital of hundreds of thousands of silver yuan. If it weren't for the fact that it was the first time for the two parties to make a deal and they couldn't get credit, Spiro would have bought more goods. In his calculations, the net profit this time was at least more than 50,000. After learning that Global Commerce would only sell this one gramophone for nearly a year, he made up his mind to hold an auction after returning to maximize his profits.

The one-time income of global commerce and trade is more than 100,000 silver yuan, which can be regarded as the first shot, and this is basically a transaction without capital, and these hundreds of thousands can be said to be pure profits. In addition to transportation and some entertainment expenses, the marketing costs are only the two quartz watches that are sent out. This amount of money is completely negligible compared to the benefits. According to the proportion of capital contribution, the trading company, the Ministry of Commerce and the management committee are each 0. 5：0。 5:9, after all, the goods are nominally owned by the Governing Council, that is, by all the survivors. So 100,000 silver coins were turned around in the hands of the Ministry of Commerce and went to the treasury of the Ministry of Finance.

The Ministry of Finance is the money bag of the Liberation Army, and the army's salaries, workers' wages, compensation for land requisition, and even procurement by the logistics department all depend on it. In the past few months, he has been supported by the official treasury confiscated at the beginning and the income from the sale of modern goods, if it weren't for the small fortune made by copying Chen Shirong's home, he might still have to live a tight life now. 100,000 yuan seems like a lot, and it can last for three or four months, but it can also make Liu Kuang easy for a while.

After personally completing the formalities of putting the silver yuan into the warehouse, the Minister of Finance returned to his office, and as soon as he sat down to rest for a while, he saw a young subordinate walking towards him. This young man's name is Qin Huizhi, and he was a student at a financial school before the "cataclysm". Although this school is a junior college, Qin Huizhi did not graduate, but after the establishment of the Ministry of Finance, he was still absorbed, after all, he is also a professional, and the most in the current Ministry of Finance is the original accounting personnel, many of whom only have secondary school diplomas. Qin Huizhi walked to Liu Kuang's desk and asked cautiously, "Minister, do you have time now?" I have something to report to you! ”

Although Liu Kuang was a little tired, he still put on a warm smile and pointed to the chair in front of him, "Xiao Qin, sit down and say!" ”

After Qin Huizhi sat down, he handed over a folder in his hand, "This is my immature idea at all, please lead the axe!" ”

Liu Kuang took the folder and saw that the title on it was "The Concept of Establishing a Central Bank and Issuing Currency", he instinctively thought that this topic was a bit big for a young man who was only twenty years old, and subconsciously glanced up at Qin Huizhi, who just smiled, but did not show a nervous look. So the Minister of Finance opened the folder and looked at it carefully.

The document first discussed the currency situation in the Guangfu area, and now within the three counties controlled by the Guangfu Army, the currency in circulation is mainly silver, copper coins, and silver yuan, of which the silver yuan is very popular because of its stable currency value, and the main means of payment for the expenses of the Guangfu Army is also silver yuan. As a result, the financial situation of the Liberation Army was seriously affected by the volume of trade, and the most direct way to solve this problem was to issue its own currency.

In the original time and space, since the decoupling of the US dollar from gold, most of the world's currencies have relied on government credit to maintain their value. The advantage of this is that the government can carry out macroeconomic control through the amount of money, and of course, when the government goes bankrupt and falls, the value of the currency will plummet. Such as the defeated Japan, Germany, and the Nationalist Government. Although the Liberation Army is now unable to talk about macroeconomic regulation, the benefits of issuing its own currency are still obvious, at least it does not have to spend any real money. For example, the wages paid to the workers and the military salaries paid to the soldiers can be issued in their own currency, and as long as the money issued can buy goods of equivalent value, its credit will be established. And to do this, it is not difficult for the Liberation Army, so that the silver yuan can be used as foreign exchange for foreign trade. Of course, this "outside" also included the areas ruled by the Qing court and the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

Since it is necessary to issue currency, it is necessary to establish a central bank, and as for the organizational model and operation mode of the central bank, there are ready-made models, and Qin Huizhi's document does not discuss it much.

Finally, regarding the mode of issuing currency, Qin Huizhi's suggestion is to issue banknotes on the gold standard, supplemented by metal coins. In fact, it is the Host:1 To Page:2 copy of the RMB, and even the denomination and the pattern on the back of the banknote are copied from the fifth set of RMB, except for Grandpa Mao's head. The metal coins directly use the coins of the original time and space, and the Guangfu Army now holds millions of coins of various denominations, ranging from one yuan to one cent, and if they are not used, they can only be re-cooked. As for how to determine the value of the currency, this is a very complicated work, and Qin Huizhi is also very clever not to put forward his own opinions, but to propose that the decision be made by the collective discussion of Caijinkou.

Qin Huizhi's plan, in fact, Liu Kuang and some people in the Ministry of Finance have also been thinking about it, and there are even non-financial people discussing it in private. It's just that everyone hasn't considered maturity yet, so no one has taken the liberty to bring it up, but Qin Huizhi's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers and dares to show himself. After reading Qin Huizhi's plan, Liu Kuang weighed it in his heart, and felt that the time was very suitable now, so he said to Qin Huizhi: "Xiao Qin, your idea is very creative, and I basically agree with your point of view. It's just that there are still some places to be discussed, as the saying goes, 'one person counts the short, two people count the long', so I think it is better to gather comrades at home for a meeting in the afternoon to discuss and improve the plan collectively, and then submit it to the management committee. What do you think? ”

His work was recognized by the leader, Qin Huizhi was a little excited in his heart, as for his achievements becoming the credit of the collective, he didn't care too much, and he was busy accepting the words of the big boss.

After lunch, the members of the Ministry of Finance who received the notice gathered in the conference room, and everyone received a little bit of wind to a greater or lesser extent, and the discussion had begun enthusiastically before the meeting began.

"I think it's better to be directly pegged to the pound. The value of the pound has always been very strong, and the decoupling from gold is also a matter after World War II, we can't see it anyway, so let's let the next generation bother! A man in his twenties said. Pegging to a major international settlement currency circulating in the world would make the currency of the Liberation Army more recognized by the world, which is a simple and easy way. It's just that his last words are reminiscent of a certain deputy chief of general staff in the original time and space.

"Back then, the little devils issued the yen, and the Kuomintang issued fiat currency, both of which were directly linked to the dollar. The little devil is still engaged in one yen to one dollar. There are examples in support of the previous person's view.

"Pegging to foreign currency is easy to be controlled by people, and Midi is a robber who eats people and does not spit out bones." There were also objections. Moreover, the fact that the United States has pitted all the members of the Bretton Woods monetary system is well known to those who are here.

"It can be used as a temporary solution! We all know the pit in history, how can we still fall into it......" The people who discussed it gradually divided into two factions, citing scriptures and classics, and arguing on the basis of reason. And the old and steady people chose to remain silent, and the argument did not end until Liu Kuang entered the door.

After the meeting began, the debate returned to the question of whether or not to be pegged to foreign currency, and everyone put their arguments on the table, and now they have to convince not only the other side, but also several leaders to support themselves. As for the issuance of their own currency, no one has any objections, and no one mentions that they should follow the example of the Guangxu Dynasty and the Beiyang government to issue silver yuan, and the lessons of the silver standard countries being sniped by the gold standard countries are vividly vivid.

Seeing that the controversy slowly subsided, many people looked at themselves, and Liu Kuang knew that it was time for him to make up his mind. He coughed twice, drawing everyone's attention, and then said, "Everyone has said so much, each has its own reasons, you can't say it's wrong, you can't say it's all right. Learning from the lessons of our predecessors and avoiding making the same mistakes is the right attitude and is worth advocating. Liu Kuang's ambiguous words made everyone unclear, and they didn't know that he was supporting the party. Then everyone heard the commonly used turning point, "However, the specific situation needs to be analyzed in detail, and it is not possible to copy it rigidly." Our economy was forcibly inserted into this time and space, and it is bound to have an impact that has never been seen in the history of this time and space, but as far as the current situation is concerned, our economy is actually somewhat similar to a place in the original time and space. ”

In the face of the leader's dumb riddle, everyone used their brains together, and some people guessed, "Hong Kong?!" ”

"No, it's supposed to be a special economic zone." There is also another answer given.

Liu Kuang did not let everyone continue to guess, but directly solved the mystery, "In fact, our economy is a mixture of Hong Kong and Shenzhen in the original time and space. ”
