Chapter 113: New Soft Sister Coins
After confirming the production capacity on the other side of the valley, Luo Pengfei promised to complete the printing of the new soft sister coin within a week, and provided Duxue with a loan of 10 million yuan in advance, so that he could hire workers and start production immediately.
Regarding the new soft sister coin, in fact, there is not much difference from the original soft sister coin, and the face value is exactly the same, but the actual value is not the same: according to the price standard after Loulan and Luo Pengfei and Duxue discussed, one hundred yuan of the new soft sister coin can be exchanged for one or two gold, and its value will never fall, guaranteed by the government, and recycled with gold or directly determined as the official currency after recovering the inland land.
In terms of purchasing power: 100 yuan of new soft sister coins can be exchanged for 100 Loulan's wotou, 500 catties of fish and meat, and 500 liters of fuel, this exchange standard is fixed, and other daily necessities produced by Duxue and other commodities transported back from the city by Luo Pengfei are on the market, the price is adjusted according to the needs of the people, and there is no fixed selling price, the only requirement is that all businesses must pay taxes, and Duxue's 10 million loan has to pay 8% of the loan interest every year.
Why are taxes and loan interest charged? The reason is that once the new soft girl coins start to circulate, the military will also start spending money from now on, of course, it needs taxes to obtain income, and with taxes and loan interest as restrictions, it can also prevent Twilight Snow from taking advantage of the monopoly to maliciously raise the price of daily necessities.
In order to repay the interest on the loan and pay taxes, Twilight must find a way to sell her goods to the people, of course, it is impossible to set the price of the goods too outrageous, and the people must be able to afford it, and Luo Pengfei only gives each person a basic living allowance of 100 yuan per month, which is almost just enough to eat, and once there is a job, this money will be stopped, in this case, if the people want to buy clothes and soap and other daily necessities, they can only save from between their teeth, so it is impossible to sell it too expensive.
And for Loulan, strictly speaking, he also has losses, first of all, the price of Wotou has become cheaper, resulting in a decline in his profits, and then there are taxes, which is also a profit killer, and the most important thing is that the new soft sister currency cannot be realized into gold for the time being, which cannot meet the urgent needs of Loulan Farm.
However, Loulan is different from Duxue, the food and pea shooters he provides are the most scarce key materials at present, in order to increase the production of these two things, it is necessary to ensure that Loulan gets enough gold, and increasing the output is also an urgent need for Luo Pengfei and even the entire government.
Therefore, Luo Pengfei gave Loulan a special preferential policy: the gold held by anyone can only be used to buy food provided by Loulan, the military prohibits the use of gold to buy and sell any items privately, and the military provides the people with gold and new soft sister currency exchange services, and all the gold obtained from the exchange is also handed over to Loulan in advance, and Loulan can use grain and pea shooters to repay.
This arrangement enables Loulan to obtain the gold needed for development to the greatest extent on the one hand, and at the same time, it can also rest assured and boldly put all the grain into the market to meet the needs of the people and relieve the pressure of food.
In order to arrange all this, Loulan, Luo Pengfei, and Duxue held a meeting for two whole days to discuss, and it was finally decided after countless quarrels, and because no one has operated this matter, whether it can be effectively implemented depends on the effect in actual operation.
But in any case, once such a mechanism begins to operate, the economy will be equivalent to entering the track of operation, and the people will get a lot of job opportunities and business opportunities, and they can rely on their own ability to make money and survive, which is stronger than the current helpless mixed eating and waiting for death, coupled with Luo Pengfei's back-up policy, it can completely ensure that no one will starve to death.
Loulan didn't know if it would work in this way, so she told Xu Renjie about these situations and wanted to hear his opinion, but after Xu Renjie listened, he pondered for a long time, but only said one sentence:
"As long as we can ensure that the supply of supplies is sufficient, there will be no problems."
When Loulan and the others were about to start running a new economic model in the seaside base, Xu Renjie also completed his personnel recruitment work, and successfully recruited a full hundred adventurers---- all of whom were blood slaves, of course.
Although these adventurers are his blood slaves, this secret is only known to Xu Renjie himself, in the eyes of outsiders, these adventurers are no different from normal people, and even appear to be more disciplined and more efficient in doing things.
This is the advantage of having a blood slave, not only do they obey orders completely, but because of the worship of Xu Renjie, the "great master", these guys have become very fanatical, and they do everything they can, and the efficiency is amazing.
Because of the transformation of the armored car, Xu Renjie's departure date was delayed by three days than originally planned, and it was not until Loulan returned from the valley that he left with his team, and Loulan in order to facilitate his adventure, also made him a "mobile crop store", like a trailer car, dragged by Xu Cheng's Mercedes-Benz RV, and set off with Xu Renjie's team.
With this "mobile crop store", Loulan can continuously deliver the food from the farm to Xu Renjie, which is equivalent to equipping Xu Renjie's adventurous team with a stable logistics supply station, and it also saves the trouble of food production, and can eat hot food at any time, which is convenient and fast as you can imagine.
"I'm going out for about three months this time" Xu Renjie specially found Loulan before setting off and said goodbye to him in person: "In these three months, I will do my best to collect zombie brain crystals for you, and you have to do something for me." ”
"Things?" Loulan asked with some confusion, "What's the matter?" ”
"Reserve a thousand pea shooters for me" Xu Renjie suddenly took out a map from his arms, laid it flat on the table, and then pointed to a place marked with a red pen on the map and said, "Let's occupy this place." ”
"What is this place?" Loulan took a closer look at the map and found that this place was not too far from Kyoto, that is, more than a hundred kilometers away, and it was a mountainous area.
"Gold Mine!" Xu Renjie suddenly whispered: "And the quality of the veins is extremely high, the reserves are huge, if my calculation is correct, that is, it has just been mined for less than a month, and we have caught up with the outbreak of the zombie virus, and we can quickly resume production in the past." ”
"It's amazing that there's a gold mine!" Loulan was overjoyed when she heard this, but immediately asked suspiciously: "I said uncle, gold mines have always been a strategic resource controlled by the government, how did you know this news?" ”
