Lao Wang is very busy recently.
Because he found that with the shortage of food in Liangzhou, these people's eyes have gradually stopped focusing on pensions - this is a terrible thing!
He lobbied everywhere, and at first, the effect was still there, but as time went by, people who had known etiquette since ancient times were once again attracted by the soaring food prices.
The entrance to Liangzhou Mansion was already deserted, and there was no longer the lively scene of hundreds of thousands of people marching and petitioning in the past few days.
"Wang Dapan, are you really not going to grab food with us? I heard that the Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce will supply it at the original price today!" A big man who was having breakfast next to him persuaded.
Lao Wang suddenly became anxious: "The original price is the original price of an egg! It is at least twice as high as before! Is this also called the original price?"
Others sneered: "Old Wang, this price is pretty good!"
"Are you really going to make your wife and children hungry?"
"Unlike you, we are supported by Silver Beach City. Hey, can you give us some of your employee benefits?"
Pooh!
Lao Wang was furious.
But he also seemed to grasp the key to the whole matter in an instant. Welfare food - food in Yintan City is naturally first supplied to employees working in the city.
But what about those other hired hands?
What about the workers in the small workshops?
Lao Wang fell into deep thought.
Although he has no education since he was a child, he has always been very smart and has a very flexible mind. He is a firm supporter of Liu Zhizhou, and now the chaotic situation in Liangzhou has affected the social order.
So, he was very anxious.
Stablize!
Must be stable!
But he knows that stability is not easy, and food is the foundation of workers.
So……
Welfare food?
Suddenly, a big idea appeared in his mind.
Yes.
This idea is huge. It was so big that it made his whole body tremble.
Combined with the current pension system that is about to come out, as well as food, workers, and welfare... He returned home devastated and did not think about food or tea.
wrong.
He felt this was wrong.
He feels that society should not be like this.
He believes that a stable society should have an order to jointly fight against any risks.
Rather than like now.
When food prices rise, these people go crazy.
It doesn’t matter what the decrees or policies are.
His mind was spinning rapidly.
Lao Wang's wife was shocked when she saw her husband like this. She had no choice but to call her younger brother who was serving in the army - Lao Wang and his brother-in-law had always had a good relationship.
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law?"
Lao Wang's brother-in-law, named Zhou Cheng, heard from his sister that something was wrong with his brother-in-law, so he came here with a bottle of Drunken Yinzhou.
Lao Wang nodded and asked his brother-in-law to sit down. After the two drank two glasses of wine, he said: "Zhou Cheng, tell your brother-in-law the truth. With the current situation in Liangzhou, what can the gentleman from Yintan City do? ?"
Zhou Cheng was a centurion in the army.
For a family like theirs, it is more or less an official family.
Hearing this question, Zhou Cheng took a deep breath and looked around carefully: "Brother-in-law, I heard that, of course, I just heard... I heard that the gentleman mentioned something about the inevitability and contingency of history. As a person like me, I don’t quite understand…”
"What did you say?"
When Lao Wang heard this, his eyes lit up.
Contingency, necessity...
This means that they plan to let the market deal with this crisis?
He found.
The tremors all over his body became more violent.
That thought became active in his mind again.
…
Silver Beach City.
Zheng Yueru has been very busy recently. She has to deal with too many things every day.
The sorrow of blocking the ship is slowly fermenting.
The Grand Canal is blocked, and the chain reaction is increasingly intensifying.
With the advent of inflation.
Yinzhou coins began to plummet again.
Compared with the previous one, this time's plunge was more severe and even directly affected people's livelihood. In the words of Mr. Qing Yangshuo, if the Yinzhou currency can really survive this time, it will develop into a real currency that can resist any risk.
But the premise is...
Yes, Yintan City can handle it, and Liangzhou as a whole can handle it.
Things have been fermenting for half a month.
Food has driven all prices to a crazy level.
Qingyang Shuo had nothing to do about it.
Zheng Yueru has grown a lot during this incident, and she is quite familiar with various tasks - she has obviously become a talent proficient in the financial system under Liu Zheng's training. The team she leads, I have also begun to gradually possess skills and knowledge base that are ahead of many financial talents in the world today.
"Everyone, what else can we do next?"
After Zheng Yueru finished her work, she gathered her team together again.
These people are all the talents she personally selected during the last Liangzhou imperial examination. They are young and energetic, and it is easier to accept new things!
"Big shopkeeper, I think we have done what we should do. But the coercive measures are really not easy to pass!"
"Yes, the big shopkeeper, the young master once said that the regulation of market economy is inevitable, but the development of market economy cannot be overly restrained!"
"Martial control has been imposed, but food prices still cannot be brought down..."
"this……"
A group of people were talking and unable to do anything.
Suddenly, someone said: "Master, I think that the ongoing situation is mainly due to the fact that the purchasing power of Yinzhou coins has been doubted by the public. At this time, the best way to deal with it is to form a non-governmental organization to stand up. Serve as a coordinating position!”
"oh?"
Zheng Yueru's eyes lit up: "Keep talking!"
The man stood up, cupped his hands and said: "Mutual distrust is the fuse of everything. At this time, we need a peacemaker, but this peacemaker cannot be our official person. It is best to be someone from among the people and workers. Stand up independently. It’s very appealing!”
Everyone else listened with interest.
These people are the most advanced young people in Liangzhou. What they like is this kind of unconstrained and fantastic ideas! What they are familiar with is Liu Zhizhou's summary of various advanced knowledge! They are also selected from various classes, so naturally there will be no class ideological conflicts.
The man looked slightly excited and said, "I have this idea for several main reasons!"
"First, since ancient times, the people have only awe and lack of trust in the government!"
Everyone nodded in unison.
To put it bluntly, it is the relationship between oppression and the oppressed.
"Secondly, since there is no trust, it will be difficult to work together and overcome difficulties together! And before the price of food, there is no distinction between high and low. We must find a way to make them trust and let them return to their jobs with peace of mind! Let us Come forward and be responsible for regulating food prices. Only in this way can society be stable! Only in this way can rising prices be curbed!"
Everyone nodded again.
Food prices affect the entire social order, and what should be considered most is these "price-sensitive" consumers, the common people. If they are chaotic, society will be chaotic; if they are stable, society will be stable.
"Thirdly, this non-governmental organization should be responsible for the function of linking up and down. On the one hand, the people trust it! He can ask for some benefits from us, and we can appropriately satisfy them. On the other hand, he appeases the people, workers' emotions, stabilizes the production order, He is not an official, and their words will be more convincing than ours!"
"In this way, even if there is a large-scale food shortage, they will not follow the trend and rush to buy. If there is no panic buying, it will be of great benefit to us in stabilizing the situation and prices!"
The whole place was silent.
Zheng Yueru stood up in excitement and quickly asked: "What kind of organization?"
The man smiled: "I think it should be called a trade union."
