In Wuhua Town, a large auditorium stands next to the government office.
This auditorium has 666 seats and can host various public activities. It can also be used as a movie theater to enrich the leisure life of Wuhua Town residents. When there are any major events in Nanwa, Shapqiu will convene people in the territory. Some people come here for meetings, like right now.
More than 400 people gathered in the auditorium. Administrative staff from some departments, village chiefs, and representatives from all walks of life were notified after the Jinsha Street Fight yesterday, and they all gathered here for a meeting today.
Important figures such as Huo Tianren, Shapqiu, Liu Zhongqie, and McQueen have already taken their seats on the rostrum.
Many people were very excited. After they received the news about Jinsha's attack yesterday, they finally felt relieved. Finally, they no longer had to worry about anyone in the triangle area threatening them.
The people below were all whispering.
“All the land in Jinsha belongs to us?”
"Nonsense, if it doesn't belong to us, then who does it belong to?"
"Then the San clan and Yangguang are just watching like this?"
"So what if you don't watch? Are you going to continue fighting with us? But I heard that the general seems to have reached a series of trade agreements with the San tribe."
"In addition to the consolidation of the new territory today, is there anything else like this?"
"How do we know? Can't we just wait and listen to the general and others to tell us what to do?"
After Shapqiu looked at the time and felt it was almost up, he started today's meeting.
"Everyone be quiet, the meeting will begin soon."
Immediately, the auditorium became audible, and everyone in the audience looked at Shapqiu. After the big news of getting the Golden Sands in half a day, Shapqiu's prestige in the triangular area was completely capped.
If in the past when she announced new policies, some mobilization was needed to get everyone to cooperate, but now everyone does what she says.
"Good morning everyone, I believe you all know what happened yesterday, right?
You may be busy for a while in the next little while, but the reason for inviting you here today is not for this matter, but for another matter. "
After hearing Shapqiu's words, everyone in the audience was shocked. Normally, they were called here mainly because of the Jinsha matter, but now even this matter has been put aside.
So what is more important than taking over the territory?
Everyone in the audience pricked up their ears, waiting for the next words, for fear of missing a word.
Shapqiu paused for a moment and then continued: "I came to see you today mainly to deal with the territorial currency issue."
currency?
Everyone here is very strange. Isn't the mainstream in the territory rmb?
Could it be that the leader meant. . .
"The currency in the territory has always been too scattered. Many currencies such as pounds, US dollars, RMB, Thai baht, denominations, etc. are in circulation. Although the mainstream in the territory is RMB, and all departments use RMB for salary payment and external settlement. .
However, people still have many other currencies in their hands, and they often use other currencies when doing transactions. This is not only inconvenient for everyone’s daily life, but also very detrimental to the development of Nanwa. You must know that we are not warlords like the Sands and the Eight-faced Buddha. Just make money for yourself and that's it. "
The people in the audience nodded in agreement. What Shapqiu said was indeed true. Although all official transactions in the territory, such as paying employees, foreign trade, and selling various government-owned goods, were settled in RMB.
But there are still a large number of other currencies in private hands. In the past, they were used to this weird daily routine and did not react for a while, but now they are aware of it and pay attention to it.
Next they heard Shapqiu's words.
"So I decided to take back the other currencies in everyone's hands and convert them all into RMB. Any transactions in the territory from now on will be settled in RMB."
After hearing about the exchange with RMB, everyone didn't have any objections. After all, RMB is quite strong and can buy everything they need. It's cheap and there's nothing wrong with it. At this time, someone suddenly raised his hand to sign at Shapqiu. Next speech.
"Chief, I have a question."
"you say."
"Other currencies are fine, but we need to reconsider whether to cancel the Thai baht. After all, our bulk material purchases are made in the Titanium Kingdom, and I noticed that the territory seems to be consciously exchanging the Thai baht in its hands for other currency reserves. , isn’t this a little bad?”
Huo Tianren looked at the person who spoke, who was a middle-level employee of the Ministry of Finance, "Ahem, you don't have to worry about this issue. We have already made an agreement with the Titanium Nation and all future transactions with the Titanium Nation will be settled in RMB. "
After hearing what Huo Tianren said, everyone who had doubts put their hearts in their stomachs. Although they didn't know why the Titanium Nation would agree to such a ridiculous request, since the professor said it was settled, everyone would not Dig deeper.
"As for currency matters, I will make an announcement after the meeting. World Bank and the four major mainland banks will set up special stations throughout Nanwa. If you have other currencies in hand and want to exchange them for RMB, you can go to the stations to exchange them."
After the words were finished, people in the audience began to think. Although Shapuqiu and Huo Tianren did not talk much about why Nanwa did not use Thai baht but RMB when buying things in Titanium country, sensitive people realized that Thai baht was not It was safe, and I was thinking about quickly changing my Thai baht into other currencies.
I won’t talk about the four major banks in the mainland, but they also know that Oneworld Bank is a private bank acquired by Oneworld Securities, a subsidiary of Hong Kong Island New World Group, two years ago and renamed Oneworld Bank. It is also the first bank to enter Nanwa. Later, the general changed foreign trade to RMB settlement, and the four major mainland banks followed suit.
. . .
When Shapqiu in Wuhua Town was holding a meeting to discuss currency matters, Ma He was also discussing currency matters with Chen Taotao, especially the Thai baht. They had just finished dividing the money today, but Ma He did not leave the scene afterwards but followed Chen Taotao. Taotao came to the headquarters of the vest company.
"Mr. Chen, are you really not optimistic about the Thai baht? All the materials Nanwa purchases from you are in RMB. What does this mean?"
Although Shapqiu has never publicized this point, the Titanium royal family has gradually discovered this. And not only Shapqiu, but also Majia Company, Hu Group, and Zhengda Group have also begun to Before that, I began to slowly reduce the amount of Thai baht in my hand.
what is this?
Are you so unsure of the Titanium Nation?
In fact, the royal family has been complaining about this for a long time, and now that it seems that the Central Group has begun to do this, it finally couldn't help but let Ma Helai take a look.
Facing Ma He's personal visit to question him, Chen Taotao just said calmly: "Your Highness Ma He, don't you think the economic structure of the Titanium Kingdom is very unhealthy?"
"How could it be? The European and American markets are already saturated. Especially after the devaluation of the pound, everyone has become more aware of this. Therefore, in the past two years, a lot of capital has chosen to transfer from Europe and the United States to invest in Southeast Asia, and the titanium country is the leader. The economy has grown rapidly in the past two years, and all Blue Star has seen its achievements, so how can it be unhealthy?"
Regarding these commonplace things, Chen Taotao just said calmly: "Your Highness, do you know that more than 80% of foreign investment is not to invest and set up factories in Titanium, but to speculate on real estate. Not only that, it also drives local capital in Titanium.
If it weren't for some changes in the triangle in the past two years, which have brought back local capital and attracted a large amount of capital to start flowing into Qinglai and Qingmai Prefectures, I estimate that the situation might have been even worse.
Although we have used various methods, such as increasing the share of manufacturing and diverting domestic funds from the real estate market, it is only a drop in the bucket. The hot real estate market has blinded many people and made them irrational. Woke up.
Now compared to this time last year, house prices have at least doubled and are still growing rapidly, while the wages of working-class people have only increased by 20%. Do you know what this means? "
