Cosma Empire

Chapter 824 Meeting

A country's economic development can never be maintained in a very, very stable state. It may exceed the plan, or it may be lower than the plan. Development is always needed. The development of economic construction will also bring a series of chain reactions. With the recovery of the imperial economy, the trade volume between the two countries began to increase significantly. In particular, the Federation deliberately adjusted part of the tariffs to normal tariffs to allow the Federation's economy to go through the adaptation period from dumping to competition.

Many entrepreneurs don't quite understand this. There are still more than two years, why not continue to dump their own products to the empire, even if they can only make money for two years, it is better than starting to consider a series of products now. factors to strengthen the competitiveness of industries within the Federation.

The United Parliament also has its own ideas. Once the companies in the country that are accustomed to making huge profits through dumping light industrial commodities can no longer continue to make money through dumping, they must first reduce the size of the company to save money, and then they are likely to In the process of transformation, there is no way out, either bankruptcy, or transformation to other businesses. In this process, a large number of working-class workers will be released to wander the streets. These unemployed people will bring the law and order to the most terrifying level in the industrial cities of the Federation, and even cause turmoil as a result.

What's even more frightening is that if these capitalists and companies give up their original companies or products because they cannot repeat the past methods to earn huge profits, it will be the turn of the empire to start dumping low-priced goods to the Federation to occupy the Federation's light industry market. The empire has a big advantage in this regard. They have very cheap labor and land. Their fart love index, that is, the industrial production cost index is lower than that of the federation. Even after paying enough tariffs It is also very competitive in society within the federation.

After a series of adjustments to the economy in various aspects, it is not without good news. For example, the recovery and rapid development of the federal economy has brought the federal economy into a period of rapid development, and there are fewer and fewer international wars. Due to extremely complicated reasons such as the increase in the amount of money, the joint parliament suddenly realized that the stability of the exchange rate itself with the empire may not be suitable for the current situation. Especially in the settlement of import and export trade, the Federation suffered a loss.

This is very obvious. If the Federation two years ago is compared to a carriage with two horses, the history of the Empire is a carriage with only one horse. The chain called the exchange rate is connected together, so the problem may not be too big. Although the speed of the Federation's carriages will be limited by the Empire's carriages, this speed limit is still within the acceptable range of everyone.

So today, two years later, the economy of the empire began to take off, the market of the federation became more diversified, and the import and export trade became more frequent. . From the purely numerical point of view, everyone has doubled, but the problem is that from the perspective of the speed and trend of development, the development speed of the more mature federal free economic market is much higher than the current economic development speed of the empire. bring about a series of problems. Including the exponential increase in the import and export volume of the Federation this year, if this chain is still kept, it will inhibit the economic development of the Federation.

This is an obvious thing,

In international trade, people have become accustomed to using the Empire Star Dollar and the Federation for settlement. Because of the "Currency Memorandum of Understanding", the two countries jointly abide by this agreement and make the exchange rate very stable. This has become the most common problem in international trade. Highlight that. Using Imperial Star Dollars for settlement has reduced the cost of other trading countries’ imports from the Federation, but has damaged the profits of the Federation’s takeaway export trade. Some merchants have begun to spontaneously prohibit the use of Imperial Star Dollars for settlement in foreign trade.

So this group of people very cunningly registered a trading company in the Yaoxing Empire, exchanged it for Imperial Star Dollars through the free floating currency market of the Empire to the International, and then turned around to import goods from the Federation and then transship them to their real country. . Although it went around in a circle, it still took advantage.

Now the joint parliament has two relatively simple choices. The first one is to provide assistance to the Shining Star Empire, to help the empire’s economic development speed keep up with the pace of the federation, and to help them achieve a real economic development. The currency relationship between the two countries and the International monetary relations tend to be normalized. But this is a very day-to-day choice, using your own money to help the Federation develop? I'm afraid that group of crazy "patriots" will parade outside the parliament building every day to ensure that all MPs cannot work and rest well.

The second option is to temporarily release the "Currency Memorandum of Understanding" signed with the Empire, and cut the stable exchange rate between the Star Dollar and the Federal Shield and float freely. This will not only make those fanatics who fantasize about re-invading the empire to eliminate tyranny every day, and regret why they did not insist on continuing to attack and completely defeat the empire, less irritable, but also strengthen the circulation of the federal shield in the international market, allowing the federation The shield has become one of the mainstream currencies in circulation.

Once this is achieved, that is, the Federal Shield becomes the mainstream international currency, which means that the Federation occupies a dominant position in the entire international market, and they can control the international financial market through various means of regulation, to a greater extent Harvesting wool from all over the world to strengthen the Federation itself is also the most mainstream voice in the United Parliament.

Compared with the first option, which is not so emotionally acceptable, the second option is obviously more in line with the requirements of the mainstream society of the Federation. The capitalists of the Federation have always believed that in the entire international market, the Federation merchants should play the role of A more important role should not put too much energy on how to check and balance the development of the empire. Moreover, the federation started earlier than the empire in international trade. This decisive factor destined that the empire could only catch up with a goal that it could never catch up with.

Therefore, the Supreme Speaker of the United Parliament initiated this meeting, whether to tear up the "Money Memorandum of Understanding" and let the exchange rate of the Federal Shield float freely in the foreign exchange market.

"Let's talk about your own opinions. I have to go home to have dinner with my family at night. I'm getting old. I don't want to sit here all day." A speaker took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. Someone brought in two blowers to blow out the smell of smoke in the conference room, which was too choking to the eyes.

Albert, who was sitting on the last seat on his left, was smoking a pipe. He looked at the others, and tapped twice on the table with his fingers. These two sounds made everyone focus on the young man named Albert. In fact, he is young, and he is not young, but he is very good. The Atlantic Group company he formed has achieved leapfrog development in just a few years, and Albert has become the idol of many young people in the federal society. In particular, United Construction Engineering in his group company has successfully opened up the empire's market, and is fighting fiercely with the empire's veteran capitalists.

With the continuous listing of various subsidiaries, it only took Albert nearly three years to change from an inconspicuous young entrepreneur to a hot federal upstart, and even entered the federal government in last year's general election. Supreme Council, became a member.

Many people say that his success is luck, but luck itself is a part of strength, because not everyone has luck, and not everyone can grasp luck. In the first half of the year, Lianhe Construction also signed a 20,000-kilometer railway construction plan with several companies in the empire, which made Lianhe's stock directly lead the entire construction industry sector. Several companies are working together to build a "circle-world" track linking four continents, including a design for an undersea tunnel that is being tendered.

This is a young man with a fortune of billions, and every decision he makes will cause earthquakes in some industries in the Federation.

Facing so many gazes, Albert didn't panic at all. He calmly knocked the ash from his pipe into the ashtray, then looked around, "Why not?"

"Many of the basic materials used by United Construction Engineering to build railways are imported from the Federation, because that is cheaper and more cost-effective than their own production. Looking at the outside world today, people all over the world are making money from us. We It's not fair to sit here and have a lot of profit flying out of our pockets every second because of an unreasonable exchange rate deal, Speakers and gentlemen here!"

"Perhaps this was a good agreement in the past, stabilizing the trade balance between our two countries, but there are fewer and fewer wars in the outside world, and we don't need to use the empire as a risk countermeasure to face the world."

"If I had a choice, I would vote yes, and I would agree to a new agreement to end the relationship between the currencies of the two countries."

Albert's words immediately aroused the approval of other members of the conference room. In the Chamber of Commerce Federation, almost all members are big capitalists, because this is a country where capital originated. In the past, a large number of business groups were stationed here. In the end, these business groups became bigger and bigger, and their residences gradually formed cities. The government officials they elected were all big capitalists. This is why the empire has always looked down on the Federation. The reason - a country of treacherous villains, what is there to respect?

Of course, the Civil War made the Empire understand the consequences of self-assertion.

Another MP also stood up, and he raised his hand and said: "I also agree with Albert MP's suggestion, we should not trap ourselves because of a backward agreement, every minute and every second of this world In changing, nothing should last forever, including this agreement. If the empire needs it, we can re-sign a new agreement in line with the current international situation, but we must end it!"
