"Wait a minute!" Viola stopped Lin Youde's explanation, "I can understand the rectification of banking and finance and the implementation of social security. Wouldn't that increase the cost of charity? In addition to the money used for relief, we will have to pay for various raw materials and production equipment. ”

"That's right," Lin Youde nodded briskly, "but that's the essence of this measure." If it is just an ordinary relief for the unemployed, these people go to buy daily necessities after receiving the relief money, and the whole process of capital and goods is only one flow. However, after switching to cash-for-work, the government needs to buy production materials and machinery for the workers it hires, and the relevant enterprises will receive orders, and in order to deliver these things to the places where the workers are employed, they must organize a considerable delivery fleet, and the cars that deliver the vehicles need fuel and maintenance parts, so the owners of the fleets must order these materials from the companies that produce them......

"There is no way to achieve such an effect by mere relief. Of course, in traditional relief activities, after the relief money flows into the hands of the capitalists through the purchase actions of the rescued, they will also invest part of the funds in the reproduction of commodities, but the scope of impact is far less than that of cash-for-work. ”

"I see."

As soon as Viola nodded, Lin Youde strengthened her tone: "More importantly, cash-for-work will maintain the dignity of a laborer, making them feel that they have relied on their hands to get out of trouble, while the usual relief will make them subconsciously feel like a beggar, making them give up on themselves, and they may degenerate into real beggars in the near future." I believe that as a leader, we should make the people's lives as dignified as possible. ”

Viola burst out laughing.

"Let the people be dignified...... It's the first time I've heard that statement, and if I hadn't recognized your talent, I'd have taken you for a fool of. Viola took a deep breath and put her smile away, "But now I think maybe you're right." ”

Lin Youde shrugged.

At this time, Viola continued: "I always feel that the methods you just mentioned look beautiful but are difficult to implement, and with the current situation in Germany, it is probably impossible to implement them. We don't have the financial resources to carry out your big idea...... I can't see the specific statistics so I dare not assert them, but ......"

"There's really no way to do it."

"Do you have to interrupt me?" Viola said this, but there was no hint of displeasure on her face, "And your assertion also makes me a little unhappy." ”

"There is no way to do this, after all, the situation in Germany after the last war is here, and the treasury of the German Empire cannot support a reform operation of this scale. Taking into account the situation of the countries in the world, I think that only the United States has the ability to implement this policy in its entirety, and the United Kingdom can also implement it partially. ”

In the pre-Lin world, the economic reforms promoted by Mustache were actually very close in principle to Roosevelt's New Deal, but the United States had strong financial support, and the government was able to establish a large number of relief institutions, employ more than 30 million unskilled workers without specific professional skills, and build a large number of educational, public health, and other public welfare facilities.

While carrying out this operation, the U.S. government also has sufficient financial resources to maintain the readiness of the Army and Navy. In particular, the U.S. Navy, in order to cope with Japan's military expansion and realize the "yellow plan" formulated by Franklin Roosevelt's uncle Theodore Roosevelt when he was the president of the United States, the U.S. Navy continued to build new warships and expand its armaments.

In Germany, on the other hand, the mustache's "cash-for-work" had to revolve around military production, because Germany did not have the financial resources to prepare for war and relief at the same time, and even so, Germany still had to confiscate a large number of Jewish property, and forced the closure of small and medium-sized enterprises to strengthen the Grand Trust to ensure the country's financial chain.

In addition to his own ambitions and the connivance of Western countries, a very important reason for the moustache later expanded was to add new financial resources and production resources to Germany and continue to fuel the German economy.

Therefore, Lin Youde knew very well that Roosevelt's New Deal could not be used on Germany, unless he Lin Youde could find new sources of wealth.

The reason why he told Viola all this was actually the same reason that Viola had just wanted to submit a report to warn the government to be on guard against the impending Great Depression - when Roosevelt came to power and began to implement the New Deal, Viola's trust in Lin Youde would definitely increase after seeing the specific measures of the New Deal.

At this moment, Viola frowned, stared at Lin Youde and asked, "Can't we use this set of policies in Germany?" ”

"If you make some adjustments according to the actual situation, you can probably implement a small part." Lin Youde paused, "How much can be implemented, I have to conduct a detailed investigation and study before I can tell you." ”

In fact, Lin Youde has another choice is to recite the original mustache strategy of the world world to the girl, but that set is actually similar to Roosevelt's New Deal in principle, and Viola is not that kind of stupid girl, it is estimated that she can find this as soon as she hears it.

So Lin Youde shirked a little, and bought time to investigate the social situation in Germany and think about specific strategies.

Viola nodded with a look of dissatisfaction, and began to stuff buttered bread into her mouth. After eating a few bites, she raised her eyes again and looked at Lin Youde and said, "Let's continue with last night's topic." ”

"You mean to use ******** to dismember Tsarist Russia?"

"No, no," Viola shook her head like a rattle, "I mean the story of the monk and his monkey apprentice after they subdued the pig. ”

Lin Youde was stunned for two seconds before shaking his head: "You have been waiting for me just to know the follow-up of Lu Dao......"

"Can't you?" Viola's face was slightly red, "Although the political and military affairs are interesting, but we can't do anything now, so we will change the mark tomorrow, and the application to the factory outside Munich will not be approved for a while...... So it's a good idea to hear the story of China first. ”

Lin Youde shrugged, it's right to think about it, no matter how smart Viola is and how much she cares about current affairs, she is just a little girl who is not yet fourteen years old, and it is normal for her to like "Journey to the West".

Lin Youde tilted his head, thought about what the plot should be after Gao Laozhuang, sorted out his thoughts, cleared his throat and started talking.

**

Lin Youde talked all the way to the quicksand river, and the little girl was finally sleepy.

Before saying goodbye to Viola, Lin Youde asked her to come to the tenant's register - after all, it is not a problem to always know the names of those friends of the owner.

After returning to his small attic with the roster, Lin Youde wasted a lot of effort before lighting the kerosene lamp, probably because the lamp oil was running out, and the light of the wick felt even dimmer than yesterday.

Lin Youde flipped through the roster, and then remembered a fucking thing: he didn't know who lived in which room, so naturally he couldn't match the name with the specific person by the room number.

Lin Youde couldn't help but hold his forehead, and then he suddenly remembered that he and his master's friends seemed to be fellow villagers, so he hurriedly checked the roster—thankfully, the strict Germans recorded exactly which province of China everyone came from.

There are only two people in the entire mansion who are fellow villagers with Lin Youde.

One is called Lin Guokai and the other is Xie Changsheng.

As for which of these two is the best friend of the owner who first met, Lin Youde is not clear.

In the middle of a difficult situation, someone knocked on the trapdoor of the attic.

"The door is unlocked." Lin Youde answered, and he heard the sound of opening the door.

"Hey," the voice of the main friend drilled into Lin Youde's ears, "Everyone is going to go out and relax, will you come along?" ”

"Uh, this ......" Lin Youde was going to learn about the common knowledge related to Yingzhou in this world world at night, so he hesitated for a while.

At this time, Jiyou said again: "You must come, you are the protagonist tonight, everyone listened to the things that you choked those Yingzhou people in the morning, and they all said that they wanted to celebrate." ”

Lin Youde couldn't help but pout, closed the roster in his hand, and at this time, an idea passed through his mind.

He stood up and looked back at the friend who only showed his head and said, "Guokai ......"

Lin Youde thought that if it weren't for Lin Guokai, he would take a "go" to prevaricate, but as soon as he called out his name, he responded: "What are you doing?" I said what's wrong with you, suddenly asked my country to open such a foreign ......"

Yes, it seems that the owner and this Lin Guokai usually refer to each other by their nicknames, where does Lin Youde know what his nickname is......

Fortunately, the other party didn't care about it, and urged directly: "Let's go, everyone is waiting for you, Huajie and they have already gone to occupy a position, it's still an old place, you can see the hostess from Baghria again." Uh, but you probably don't miss her now, do you? ”

After speaking, Lin Guokai squeezed his eyes at Lin Youde.

Lin Youde smiled, didn't respond, pulled the lampshade of the kerosene lamp down to seal the gap of air intake, and darkness descended on the narrow attic. With the light of the small candlestick in Lin Guokai's hand, Lin Youde got out of the trapdoor and climbed down the ladder and stood in the stairwell on the third floor.

Lin Guokai pouted at Viola's door and asked in a low voice, "Is the landlady asleep?" ”

"Well, it's hard for me if she doesn't sleep anymore, I don't remember the story after the quicksand river too clearly, so I can only talk about the daughter country directly."

"What?" Lin Guokai opened his mouth wide, "You told her about Journey to the West?" ”

"yes."

"Damn, I told her if I knew the way! What a big bargain for you kid! ”

"People are less than fourteen years old, what do you think?"

"What's wrong with fourteen? According to the law of the Ming Dynasty, the girl will be able to get married and have children at fourteen! ”

Lin Youde made a false sound, and then made a gesture to urge Lin Guokai to leave quickly.

Although Lin Guokai obediently took the candlestick and began to go down the stairs, he still continued to talk about this topic, and Lin Youde also responded with a match.

Out of the gate on the first floor, Lin Youde stood under the dim street lamp, looking up at the night sky.

The sky was unusually clear tonight, and Lin Youde, who was accustomed to living in the city, was shocked by the vast stars for a while - in the era before he crossed over, even in the urban-rural junction of Guangzhou, he could not see such a magnificent starry sky.

As a liberal arts student, Lin Youde is still somewhat contaminated with some literary and youthful habits, and at this time, in the face of this strange and familiar starry sky, he felt a lot of emotion for a while, and subconsciously hummed "Three Hundred and Sixty-five Miles", which he liked very much when the debate team was just disbanded.

After humming a few words, he remembered that there was a group of students studying abroad next to him, so he hurriedly stopped and turned around to confirm the situation.

Lin Guokai patted him on the shoulder vigorously and said, "Don't, don't stop, continue." ”

Looking at his expression, he seemed to be planning to wait for Lin Youde to continue singing and then coax, Lin Youde looked at the others, and found that everyone seemed to be waiting for **** himself, so he shook his head and decided to sacrifice himself to entertain everyone.

But when he actually opened his mouth to sing, he was shocked: is this still the self who sang K and was forbidden by his classmates to touch Mike for 30 years!

And the group of international students looked at Lin Youde dumbfounded with the expression of seeing Jesus.

But as the lyrics came out of Lin Youde's mouth one by one, everyone's expressions changed little by little.

- The sleepy stars / Can't stop my trip / Years of wandering day and night dining and sleeping in the open / For the sake of ideals, I would rather endure loneliness / Drink up that loneliness

With a snap, the handsome guy who went to the salon the day before lit himself a cigarette with a lighter, and then looked up at the starry sky.

- Shake off the dust of a foreign place / Embark on a long journey / Pursue my dreams with infatuation / Three hundred and sixty-five miles spent every year / A day of travel

The man with glasses took off his glasses, took out the glasses cloth and wiped them carefully, and the buddy next to him raised his hand, put it on his shoulder, and pinched it hard.

- Three hundred and sixty-five miles of road yo / over spring, summer, autumn and winter / three hundred and sixty-five miles of road yo / how can you let it be wasted

In the chorus, Lin Youde's voice was a little higher, which attracted the disdainful eyes of foreigners passing by, but none of the international students cared.

It may be that judging the end of the chorus, this part of the song is also over, and the impassioned man on the first day took out the organ from his coat pocket and put it to his mouth to blow a melodious melody - although it was improvised, the tune matched the melody that Lin Youde had just sung very well, and it could be seen that this guy's musical attainments were quite good in addition to his speech.

With the accompaniment of the harmonica, Lin Youde sang the second paragraph.

- The ambition of that year / has never disappeared / Even if time passes, it is still persistent / How many times have passed since I left my homeland / Three hundred and sixty-five days

Someone lowered his head, as if "the wind blew the sand into the eyes".

- Three hundred and sixty miles of road yo / From hometown to foreign land / Three hundred and sixty miles of road yo / From youth to white head / How many three hundred and sixty-five miles of road yo / Over spring, summer, autumn and winter / Three hundred and sixty-five miles of road yo / How can you let it be wasted / Three hundred and sixty-five miles of long road / Drink up that loneliness

After Lin Youde held his throat, silence enveloped everyone.

The generous man looked down at his harmonica, and by the light of the street lamp, Lin Youde noticed that there were words engraved on the side of the harmonica, and it was the handwriting that he was looking at.

Finally, he looked away and put away the harmonica, and said in a deep voice: "This is all for the rejuvenation of China." ”

"For the rejuvenation of China."

The other students then repeated in a ragged but firm voice.

Then the handsome guy who had been smoking threw the half-smoked cigarette in his hand and said loudly: "Okay, let's go!" Whether it's nostalgia or the determination to revive, we all have it, but now let's go relax and relax! ”

Then a group of people suddenly remembered the purpose of going out on this big night, and the atmosphere became lively.

On the way to the tavern, Lin Guokai quietly poked Lin Youde and asked, "What's going on with you in the past two days?" What a different person! And you sing this song, I've never heard it before! Where did you learn that? No, no, it's impossible for me to learn this song without knowing it, almost all of us acted together after we went abroad! Honestly, what's going on? ”

Lin Youde said that I also wondered, this other person has crossed all kinds of gold fingers and golden thighs, damn me, I have a singer talent?

Lin Guokai also dragged Lin Youde to urge: "You speak, where did you learn it?" ”

Lin Youde was a little unhappy for a while, so he glanced at him and said, "I wrote this song myself, how about it, it's good?" ”

Lin Guokai immediately had a hellish expression.

At this moment, the international students who walked in front shouted: "Don't you see that Tang Huajie and them!" Looks like you've got a spot, hey, Huajie, here! ”

Lin Youde raised his head and saw a large signboard with electric lights not far away.
