Chapter 222: Stimulating Consumption
Real estate is naturally the biggest head, but the house has to be built little by little, and it is impossible to be full of high-rise buildings in an instant.
Therefore, Lu Bu's goal is placed in other directions.
First of all, the bicycle that is the oldest of the three items can be popularized.
The so-called three major pieces of later generations, Lu Bu can be said to be fresh in his memory.
In the 70s, watches, bicycles, sewing machines.
In the 80s, refrigerators, color TVs, washing machines.
90s, air conditioners, computers, VCRs.
In the 21st century, houses, cars, tickets.
At present, although rubber resources are more used in the military industry, they are no longer in a hurry. So, it's enough to separate the parts to build the bike.
You must know that when it comes to bicycles, Lu Bu has been pestered by Huang Yueying for a long time.
After all, the original impression is still there.
However, he was yelled at by Lu Bu again and again what bicycle he wanted.
Lao Tzu has a shortage of military vehicles, and he still wants bicycles.
Now, Lu Bu's military industry has enough reserves, and civilian use can be released.
Because soon he will be able to conquer the coastal areas of Sun Quan Yangzhou, the rubber in these areas has matured and can be tapped, and naturally there is a big one.
Not only bicycles, but also electric cars. Lu Bu will not come according to history, because of the explosive development of science and technology, it can be popularized by leaps and bounds.
All kinds of household appliances, Lu Bu has asked people to develop them.
The benefits of electricity go beyond lighting. Now the Chinese people are becoming more and more inseparable from electricity.
In addition to people's livelihood appliances, Lu Bu also focuses on the entertainment industry.
People's pursuit is constantly improving, before there was no food and clothing, everyone only thought about food and clothing.
Now that I have food and clothing, I want to pursue a higher spiritual pursuit.
Lu Buke knows very well the profits that the entertainment industry can bring, so how not to vigorously develop it.
Therefore, Lu Bu decided to set up a theater.
Of course, the movie may still take a little time, but theater and shadow puppetry do.
In an age where there is little entertainment, this is enough to attract people to spend.
It's very simple to ask for a script, let's not talk about it far away, just take contemporary events to act, and it's enough for artists to act.
And Lu Bu can also be used to publicize his exploits. What is the Three Heroes fighting Lu Bu, no, it can't be called the Three Heroes fighting Lu Bu, it should be Lu Bu fighting the three thieves, sweeping the Eighteen Roads and so on.
History is written by the victors, and Lu Bu is not trying to rewrite history.
Rich entertainment activities, rich people are naturally a big consumer.
The poor, too, will be able to find subsidized jobs.
To take the simplest example, it used to be difficult for people to travel long distances because of the lack of transportation.
Now if you want to go to a play, you can have a rickshaw driver pull the cart.
It can be said that unless it is really lazy to eat, there will definitely be no one who does not have a job to do.
Again, tourism can also be officially developed.
The railway already has it, and if you have never seen the sea, you can go to the beach and see it.
If you want to see the scenery of the grassland, you can also go to the grassland for horseback riding.
If you want to see the Great Wall, you can also climb the Great Wall.
As long as Lu Bu is organized here, rich people will definitely travel.
The world is so big, why don't you go out and see.
The economic development brought by tourism is also immeasurable.
In a word, as long as you stimulate consumption, Lu Bu will be able to get a lot of money here.
As long as there is no shortage of funds in the treasury, a large number of projects can be built. With such a virtuous circle, why worry about the rapid development.
The only flaw is that the people have to take on debts and have to pay them off constantly.
But as long as the control is reasonable, Lu Bu can develop greatly.
He wants to recreate the scientific and technological glory of later generations in his lifetime.
The Celestial Empire will not develop greatly in the next few decades, and Lu Bu believes that he can too.
Soon, as Lu Bu's policy here was announced in the newspapers, the entire country of China was boiling.
"Hey, have you read the newspaper, Your Majesty is open to small loans, now the loan does not need to be mortgaged, you can have proof of income. Wow, I'm worried about running out of money for the New Year, but now I'm finally not worried! ”
"I've known for a long time, now that the train is open to the public, I'm about to take a leave of absence to go on a trip!"
"Also, Your Majesty invented the camera, and I was just thinking about taking a family photo!"
……
With the introduction of Lu Bu's various policies, the Chinese people, whether rich or well-fed, began to consume heavily.
If you buy a bicycle, you can pay in installments, so what are you afraid of.
Of course, bicycles are now a luxury, and they are not really affordable for the powerful.
And motorcycles are even more of the big ones. You have to have a motorcycle, which is guaranteed to be a pickle girl artifact. It feels exactly like a sports car in the sports cars of later generations, an absolute son.
The Ministry of Communications, Lu Bu was also formally established.
There are no traffic lights, of course, it is a manual command.
These tasks must be popularized and prepared in advance, otherwise they will be chaotic.
Huaguo is still changing greatly every day, and on the other hand, Wu and Shu are much behind.
Whether it's industry or agriculture, it's ridiculously bad. The people still work at sunrise and rest at sunset, and there is nothing.
Even if Sun Quan wants to vigorously develop industry and commerce, he is completely incomparable to Lu Bu.
The quality of the things produced by others is better than yours, and the price is cheaper than yours, how can you develop.
What's more, there are many things that Wu Kingdom simply can't produce. What can you do but import.
You say no, is that possible?
From the emperor to the courtiers, which of Wu did not use Lu Bu's products.
It can be said that if Lu Bu is stuck here, Wu Guo will be decades behind.
But Lu Bu still needed supplies from Wu State, so business contacts were still not interrupted.
But in this back-and-forth transaction, Lu Bu naturally made a lot of money.
Even if Sun Quan wants to work hard, he is far from catching up with the speed of Lu Bu's development.
People are open, how to compare.
Sun Quan hadn't figured out what the anti-aircraft gun looked like, and he heard that Lu Bu had made an airplane.
How to chase this, this is completely unchasing.
Looking at the Chinese people, there are still various entertainment activities after work. As for Soochow, in addition to the soldiers, more than ninety percent of the people are farmers, what can they do.
Except for a little entertainment for the elites at the top, ordinary people can't do anything.
Well, it's good that Lu Bu is kind here.
There is no limit to all kinds of sporting goods, and a lot of them are circulated here in Wu Kingdom.
In their spare time, people can still play ball or something.
But this is a cultural invasion, how can the people of Wu not be grateful to Lu Bu while enjoying Lu Bu's products.
Damn's currency is still the paper money produced by Lu Bu, no matter how independent Wu is, it seems to be a subsidiary of Lu Bu Huaguo.
Because the avatar on the banknote is Lu Bu, not his Sun Quan. This feeling of eating made Sun Quan very uncomfortable.
If you want to engage in the currency of the exclusive Wu State, Sun Quan can't do it at all.
Quite simply, there was a shortage of copper mines, and Sun Quan had no way to get copper coins.
And the people are used to paper money and no longer like to use copper coins.
As for paper money, Wu Guo didn't even study paper, how to make it.
Lu Bu's degree of secrecy about papermaking is no less than that of top military secrets.
Seeing the rapid development of Huaguo every day, Sun Quan is really worried about Zhongzhong.
Because he knew that if he continued like this, sooner or later, the Wu State would be annexed by Hua.
Because Wu is not as high as the emperor of Shu, most of the territory of Wu is by the sea, and Lu Bu can attack recklessly.
In the past, it was great to have a navy, where did you want to get a navy.
Lü Bu created a new era, and the territory of Wu was exposed to Lü Bu's troops at any time.
What to do, Sun Quan has been thinking about this question.
