"Where did you get the news about the currency reform? I haven't heard anything about it?"
Xu Guyu interrupted and frowned slightly. Of course, there was also the reason why he didn't know much about finance and needed to think about it carefully.
"The Lin family is currently investing in industry. Whether the price of silver rises or the outflow of silver has a huge impact on the industry, the Lin family has had contact with people in this field.
However, what the Lin family proposes is to use silver as a precious metal as a reserve and issue banknotes, but does not support exchange, in order to partially get rid of the impact of silver prices on currency.
The Lin family also promised that they could take the lead in exchanging large sums of silver for new coins and promote the popularization of new coins. However, the national government has not shown any interest. It is obvious that the national government wants to get rid of the silver standard.
Domestic gold reserves are even smaller, and the conditions for issuance with gold collateral are obviously not prepared. The remaining way to get rid of the silver standard is to reserve the currencies of powerful European and American countries, use them as reserves, issue their own currencies, link the exchange rate with them, and maintain
The currency value is stable.
The rest is just my inference. The United States ignored the government’s negotiations and passed a bill to purchase silver and raise the price of silver. The increase in the price of silver also facilitated the dumping of its goods. Obviously, it has little interest in helping us reform the currency system.
Therefore, the targets chosen by the national government for contact should be Britain, France and other countries. But now they are secretly importing colonial currency into the country, so they may not be too enthusiastic, or at least delay the matter.
Informing Uncle Guo of this news is to remind him that he can intervene in this matter and contact the United States to see if he can promote the implementation of this matter, at least not to be dragged down by Britain and France.
Of course, this matter cannot be hidden from both parties, but must be made clear, otherwise both parties may be offended in the end. You can suggest to them that both parties cooperate and promote this matter together.
For example, the two parties pretend to compete with each other and create some conflicts, making people mistakenly think that they want to promote cooperation with a certain party, so as to make the two parties who are not very active become anxious.
Because using other countries' exchange rates as reserves and binding other countries' exchange rates is equivalent to transferring part of financial sovereignty to the other party. There are benefits to this. Even if they were not active before due to various reasons, if these benefits are grasped by other countries, they will be even less willing to see them.
This kind of cooperation can not only promote the matter as soon as possible and operate well, but also negotiate better terms. This plan can be regarded as a good alternative. "
Xu Guyu had already taken out his notebook and jotted it down carefully. After hearing this, he frowned and asked seriously: "No selfish motives?"
He didn't quite understand it, and he couldn't quite understand it, but there were some issues that needed to be clarified first.
"The result is self-interest, but the starting point is not. This matter itself needs to be solved. Especially at this time, when the Red Party has made great progress, the Japanese will think that we will threaten them afterwards.
The economic damage is not a good thing for the government itself, and it will also have a great impact on both the Red Party and the Japanese. There is a high probability that the Japanese will add fuel to the fire behind the scenes, causing even worse effects.
If I had the right words, I would have made suggestions to the higher authorities long ago. If this matter cannot be properly handled as soon as possible, the government's finances may have serious problems, affecting all aspects."
Of course, Lin Mo does have some selfish motives. It is not the Lin family, but he is worried that the changes brought about by the things he has done will affect the government's reform of the currency system, which will then have a greater impact.
It is undeniable that the government's currency reform had a lot of problems at the beginning, and it was so bad in the end that it was impossible to talk about. But for now, this move still brought many positive effects.
Although due to various reasons, the price of silver has skyrocketed and plummeted, it has not had much adverse impact on the national economy at the moment, but if left unchecked, the impact is inevitable.
Lin Mo had no illusions that the Japanese would not invade because he came here. At this critical moment before the war, if the national economy suffered a more severe impact, then all his efforts would be in vain.
For this reason, he took this opportunity to hand over this suggestion. As for whether it would be feasible or not, that was not something he could decide. He could only say that he would try his best to do what he could.
Xu Guyu nodded and said: "I don't know much about these things. I must ask these questions clearly before I can report and decide whether to listen to this suggestion."
Xu Guyu explained briefly, and after recording it, he looked a little embarrassed. He thought about it again and again before speaking.
"There is another thorny and troublesome situation. The chairman of the committee has also hinted several times that he wants us to hand over the money."
After Xu Guyu finished speaking, he felt a little helpless. If those two people could still find a way to deal with it, then this matter would be really difficult to handle.
Lin Mo frowned slightly and asked: "Section Chief, the principal wants to use this money as military supplies to encircle and suppress the Red Party?"
"That's not true. The Red Party's suppression campaign went very smoothly. It didn't require much extra expenditure, and all the military supplies could be supplied." Xu Guyu shook his head and explained.
Lin Mo can understand this. Before the war starts, it is not necessary to reserve enough military supplies, but it is also necessary to reserve a lot, and to supplement the guns and ammunition of the departing troops, supplement their salaries, departure expenses, etc.
Therefore, the cost is relatively high before the battle begins. Although the money will be lost after the battle begins, if it goes smoothly and the expenses are still within control, shortcomings can be made up by moving money here and there, so it is not a big problem.
"Then why do we need to spend such a large amount of money? Logically speaking, if there is not a big hole, the principal should not have the idea of spending this money!"
Xu Guyu nodded and said: "Didn't we carry out military cooperation with Germany? The government is currently discussing with Germany and wants to launch a large-scale cooperation.
The content is probably to ask the people of Dewei to help reorganize the army and build national defense, which involves a large amount of military procurement, which is very expensive. The government's funds are limited and there is a huge gap, so the chairman wants to take away this fund."
"...Oh...you should have told me earlier!" Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief. He also had a guess about this matter. This should be the cooperation of the German Mechanic, or an early version of the German Mechanic.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The reorganization of German armorers is not done in one cluster. At first, we wanted to create a national defense organization, and then we set up a training team for pilot purposes. In the middle, we also developed the national defense industry and so on.
, and finally evolved into a reorganized moral weapon master.
Lin Mo is not sure whether there has been such a discussion in history, but it is basically certain that Sino-German cooperation will not deviate from this track.
"What should I say? Give the money directly to the chairman?"
Xu Guyu frowned slightly, obviously! Now that this matter was mentioned, neither he nor Boss Dai were happy.
"...Definitely not..." Lin Mo shook his head and explained: "We can't set a precedent, at least we can't pay too much, otherwise, I'm afraid this kind of thing will be inevitable in the future.
Well! The funds allocated to us are extremely limited, and we still need to find a way on our own. Now we are finally a bit more comfortable, but if we start this way, we may have to raise money for the principal in the future.
It’s not that we don’t want to, it’s that this kind of thing shouldn’t be ours in the first place. If we do it, we’ll offend others. It’s a good thing but nothing will come of it. We can’t do this and we’re not suitable to do it.”
"What do you want to say? Don't keep telling me the truth!" Lin Mo was rambling, which made Xu Guyu a little impatient.
"This matter needs to be explained bit by bit!" Lin Mo quickly explained before continuing: "If the money is used as military resources to encircle and suppress the Red Party, this matter will be really difficult to handle.
Because of this, we can only contribute money, but if we take less, the principal will definitely be dissatisfied. If we take too much, we have to admit, it is easy to make a very bad start.
But unlike the cooperation with the Germans, we are not suitable for taking money to cooperate. I am not referring to the intelligence agency, but the national government. It is not suitable for us to provide money for this cooperation. To be precise, we cannot take money directly.
At present, the Germans are vigorously developing their military, and conflicts, conflicts and even wars with other European and American powers are inevitable in the future.
At present, our relationship with Germany is relatively close and intimate. That is because it needs our market to dump its civilian products and even military products.
But in the long run, what he needs on the other side of the world is a strong ally to share the pressure of various countries, not a country like ours that is facing being invaded.
Therefore, in the future, there is a high probability that we will not be able to get together. As for who to choose, needless to say, Japan is the only choice. By then, the two sides will inevitably go to the opposite side.
Of course, this does not mean that there will be no cooperation between the two parties. On the contrary, we must find ways to strengthen and extend cooperation.
Because at the moment, they are the only ones willing to provide us with more help, and we must try our best to strengthen our strength to avoid losing even this help in the future.
Based on this consideration, when we cooperate with the other party, we must both prevent and pull. To guard is to prevent them from tearing up the contract, and to pull is to try to ensure that they perform the contract.
Money is not something that the other party cares about very much, and since its territory is small and it has few overseas colonies, it inevitably lacks resources, especially military-related minerals.
Things like tungsten, antimony, and ferrous metal are closely related to the military industry, and things like tungsten oil, tung oil, etc. are also industrial and even military supplies. However, Japan has a small land and lack of resources, and it is also developing military industries and cannot meet this demand.
Based on these, I designed a rough plan to first strengthen relations and cooperate with each other, and then use the government wireless as an excuse to borrow money from the other party to purchase military supplies.
We, on the other hand, provide the other party with much-needed reimbursement of minerals, raw materials, etc. This can be used to bring the two parties closer and try to delay the breakdown of the cooperation between the two parties.
Secondly, we borrow money to buy and repay with things. We need to raise things in batches and repay them in batches. Military supplies are also delivered in batches. We can hand over batches and repay batches to prevent more losses caused by the breakdown of cooperation."
"This plan is probably feasible!" Xu Guyu nodded. He had to say that this plan was very feasible, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Of course it's higher. This is the plan they used in history, and Lin Mo also believes that this method is better than simply paying.
Even if we don’t consider the question raised by Lin Mo, even if we raise this money, it’s another question whether we can spend it in the end!
This is not an idle worry. With the ambitious chairman of the committee inside and the eager Japanese outside, the possibility of something going wrong is very high.
