On the northern island of the southern waters, seagulls with wings were gurgling over the construction site, throwing bird poop everywhere.
It is not only the residents of North Island that are fed.
As the battle to land in Haiya Province is about to begin, a large number of players flock to the North Island, and all kinds of birds on the island were fed to a fat and strong body.
Some of them are even fat and can't fly.
Looking at the various faces on the construction site, the warlike wolf said with a strange expression on his hands.
Is it my illusion?
The dog with a catheter that was being beaten up looked up at him: What?
The warlike wolf touched his chin and muttered: Why do I feel that more people are fighting for business with us?
Originally, there were only about 30 people on the construction site, and except for him and the three civil engineering brothers, there were less than 30 NPCs.
However, I don’t know what happened these days. The number of people on the construction site has increased rapidly, and it has doubled and doubled without realizing it, and it is almost two hundred!
In reality, this number of people is normal, but the problem is that this is the southern waters of "Wasteland OL", with a total population of only over one million.
Where do so many people come from this ghost place?!
It's not an illusion, the visionary eagle narrowed his eyes and said lightly, the war is over, rational analysis should be that a baby boom broke out, and the baby boom caused an increase in the population... No problem.
Catheter Dog: Damn!Your baby grew up so fast?!
Stir-up stick: …
Although several players can't figure out the reason, one thing is to say, there are indeed more people in Beidao these days.
Not only on the construction site, but also on the wharf, as well as supermarkets and restaurants, etc.
These people seem to be made out of thin air, and most of them are new faces.
Putting aside his thin physique and timid eyes, these people looked a little like residents in Luoxia Province.
I heard from my brother who entered the game in the early days that many survivors in Luoxia Province migrated from the Great Desert in the early days of the Wasteland Era.
Of course, at that time, the big desert was not called the big desert, but should be called the four major industrial zones in the southeast, southwest and northwest.
I was really curious about where these NPCs came from. The warlike wolf walked up at the instigation of a group of bad friends and stopped someone and asked.
Hey, where did you guys come from?
The man obviously didn't want to pay attention to him, but he didn't dare to offend others, and he stammered for a while and muttered.
Mammoth State.
The warlike wolf was stunned: Where is Mammoth State?
The man explained: Bharat Province.
The warlike wolf nodded in confusion.
Oh, that place Ah... that's really far.
The man didn't say anything and rushed to move bricks. After borrowing them, he hurriedly left.
The warlike wolf did not stop him, but looked at the hunchbacked man and looked at the group of people in the distance.
Although their appearances are different, some are young, some are old, some are handsome and some are ugly, their temperaments are surprisingly the same.
He couldn't think of how to describe these people, but he just subconsciously thought of the cow.
This is the most bizarre place.
He remembered that the Niu people should be the nobles of the Bharat Province, but these people were more like the sacred cows carrying the sun than the Niu people.
There seemed to be an invisible rope around their necks, with their backs facing the scorching sun. No one was holding them, but everyone seemed to be walking with their noses.
Brother Jian, who was standing not far away, sighed, took off the miner's exoskeleton, walked up to stop a man who was a little over the standard.
Old...sir, you are too tired to move bricks, please wear my equipment.
He came to the construction site not for money, but for the reputation and contribution points of the region, and by the way, he also gave a glimpse of the experience of the power sequence and social practice.
This is the game mechanism of "Wasteland OL", which was decided a long time ago.
When players want to use VMs and various mechanisms attached to VMs to carry out activities in a certain region, they must start with some tasks that go deep into the grassroots level and increase their regional reputation to more than 1,000.
The man who was suddenly talking to him was a little at a loss and quickly refused: I, I don’t know how to use it.
Thinking about doing the good people to the end, Brother Stand said enthusiastically: It’s okay, I’ll teach you!
No, no, sir, I'm afraid I will ruin it for you. I... I really can't afford it.The man waved his hand desperately with a fearful expression on his face, but refused to go on.
It's okay!This thing is not expensive, it only costs 2,000 silver coins. If it is broken, I just happened to change it to a new one.Brother Jian turned on the VM's translation function and smiled and said this again in a non-standard couplet.
The man smiled bitterly when he heard this and said nothing.
2000 silver coins.
He only worked for more than 100 yuan a month...
But even 100 silver coins is much better than when he was arriving in Mammoth State.
In the aristocratic manor's manor, there is only beans to eat when there is too much food to sell. Usually, I have to eat a meal of soil for less than three days.
The people here not only care about food and accommodation, but also only need to do eight hours of work a day. He can send these 100 silver coins to the whole province.
I heard that some diligent young men can move a lot, earn 5 to 8 silver coins a day, but maybe they can get more than 200 yuan a month!
200 silver coins are 2,000 gallons. Even if you put them in Golden Gallon Port, you will have a high salary, not to mention that you don’t have to spend money on food and accommodation here.
When he thought of the mouths at home, he no longer wasted time with this stranger who had no good intentions at first sight. He hurriedly said he borrowed it and walked to move it...
……
Sometimes fate is so wonderful. Even if you think of an unsolvable problem, you can't think of a solution, but in the end you get a perfect solution in an unexpected place.
Mammoth State?What a great place.
When the trade relationship between Mammoth State and the South China Sea Alliance is established in the future, perhaps the South China Sea Alliance can really consider investing there.
Li Minghui never expected that he had planned to put it in a mess, but before he could doze off, someone handed over the pillow.
And once I handed over, I handed over 100,000.
These young and middle-aged workers from Mammoth State are between the ages of eighteen and thirty, and are all married, with at least two children at home, and some are still elderly people to raise.
The Mammoth State authorities promised him that those who come to work through labor dispatch companies will never run around, nor will they commit crimes, and will leave after they finish their work, and will never occupy any public resources and social welfare of the South China Sea Alliance.
The only requirement is that the South China Sea Alliance hopes that ships transport these populations and that they must be responsible for the training of these personnel.
In other words, they are only responsible for the release and management of people.
When Li Minghui heard that there was such a good thing, he immediately agreed and even transferred all the nuclear-powered freight submarines that had just been launched to the water to recruit people.
Up to now, 50,000 workers in Mammoth State have worked in the South China Sea Alliance, and the construction sites on the northern islands have risen like rockets.
Although he didn't want to do too much extra things during the remaining term, if he didn't pick up this kind of cheap, which only benefits and no harm, he would be too sorry to those people in the southern waters who supported him.
However, what Li Minghui did not expect was that even so, he was still being found fault by representatives in the southern waters.
It was a breeze and sunny afternoon. He was sitting in the office drinking tea and reading newspapers. Suddenly, footsteps came from the corridor outside.
As soon as he put down the newspaper in his hand, Si Wen, the secretary-general of the representative association, pushed the door and walked in, staring at his nose and said.
What happened to those people on the Beidao construction site?
The representative meeting of the South China Sea Alliance is similar to the alliance. In addition to the general representative, there is also a committee elected by representatives, and the Secretary-General generally represents the unanimous opinions of the members.
Although Li Minghui doesn't like these noisy guys, they have the final say in the law after all, so they still have to pay attention to it and explain.
That was a refugee from Mammoth State.
Why do refugees in Mammoth State appear in the southern waters?Si Wen stared into his eyes and said aggressively, "The representative will not pass the relevant resolution, how can you make a decision without authorization!"
Li Minghui did not answer his question, but asked back: Will there be any ban on labor dispatch by the representative?
Si Wen frowned, not knowing what geoduck was hidden in his shell, but he still said as usual: No.
Li Minghui continued to ask.
Will there be any banned alliance companies from working in Beidao?Si Wen said impatiently.
No, what exactly do you want to say? Are those guys all from the alliance?
What's the problem with the labor dispatch company registered in the French Fries Port sending 10,000 workers to North Island?Li Minghui showed a smile on his face, and he looked at Si Wen, who was stunned and spread his hands. This did not violate any law. If I rejected their kindness, you would rely on me to abuse the power in my hands... Sorry, I would not be so stupid, or you can go back and discuss it and re-strate the identity of the labor company's dispatched employees, but this is your business.
A president who cannot and is not interested in re-election is invincible.
Looking at Si Wen, who was embarrassed and speechless, Li Minghui felt so happy.
These %¥#@ are used to being lawless because they have the support of the alliance behind them. They always find fault with him if they have something to do.
He used to think that when he was Charas, they were guarding him every day, but now he doesn't want to be a man, but he still looks at him every now and then.
This time he finally made him proud and let them suffer a lot at his home court: Is there anything else?
He picked up the teacup and took a sip. Li Minghui looked at the Secretary-General who couldn't hold it in a word and teased him.
How about you going back to have a meeting to discuss?
Si Wen glared at him fiercely and was about to turn around and leave, but another person suddenly came from outside the office door.However, this time it was not the representative meeting, but the secretary of the Presidential Office.
Seeing the door open, the secretary walked straight in and looked at Li Minghui sitting behind the office and said quickly.
Mr. President, Duke Nihak from the Silan Empire asks for a visit!On behalf of the Xilan royal family, he expressed his willingness to provide the South China Sea Alliance with a loan for post-war reconstruction, totaling 10 billion Xilan coins, and it is fine to pay off the interest within 20 years.
Li Minghui was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a long time, he didn't remember what the Xilan coin looked like, so he subconsciously asked: How much does it cost to change it to silver coin?
The secretary was also stunned and said with an awkward expression.
Well, there is very little direct trade between the Alliance and the Empire, and it usually passes through the port of Golden Gallen Port... At present, the local recognized exchange rate is about 4 gallons and 5 Silan coins, and the anchors are mainly cotton for textiles and beans for feed.
After the embargo ended, the market price of a kilogram of beans in Huzhou and Baozhou was about 5 Xilan coins, and the average market price of Jinjialun Port was about 4 gallons, mainly for oil pressing and feeding.
Although the Xilan coins of the Golden Gallon Port Bank were lent and sold in large quantities, the Xilan coins were once turned into waste paper in Rowell State, even the Huzhou and Leopard State, the Empire was not a giant stone city after all. It was not only a large population but also hard-working. The blood and sweat of nearly 100 million serfs passed through the Yongliu River to Huzhou and Leopard State, and carried the Xilan coins back.
Not only that, the two single export commodities that originally determined the value of Xilan coins were slaves and livestock. Now, due to the existence of Jinjialun Port, the empire's import and export business suddenly became busy, and instead, it changed from the initially no outsiders to a relatively stable exchange rate.
Just using the data given by his secretary, Li Minghui calculated roughly with his fingers, but it didn't matter if he didn't. He was shocked when he calculated.
Eighty million silver coins?!
If the exchange rate is reliable, it is equivalent to 8 silver coins per person in the Xilan Empire lent to the South China Sea Alliance?!Is this empire so rich?!
Li Minghui felt that his hands were shaking, and he had never shaken like this when he was bombarded by ships on Anle Island.
Si Wen, who was standing next to the desk, was also confused. He opened his mouth and couldn't speak. He just stared at Li Minghui with his eyes, wishing he could snatch the pen on this guy's desk and sign the loan agreement for him!
Eighty million silver coins...
Each citizen of the South China Sea Alliance can get an average of 800!
In fact, there was no need for a crazy hint of the representative. Li Minghui just swallowed and stared at his secretary and asked hurriedly.
How do they pay?No, I mean when will they send the money?
The secretary whispered.
Duke Nihak did not say...but he is in Beidao now, don't you plan to meet him in person?
Li Minghui quickly looked at Si Wen, who was docile like a full seagull, consciously retreating to the door of the office.
I'm fine, I wish you a smooth negotiation. Dear General Li Minghui, I hope you can take us from one victory to another.
This guy never called himself a general, especially in this presidential palace.
Looking at Si Wen who had already left the door, Li Minghui felt proud and couldn't help but curse: These guys who were jealous of money!
After saying that, he coughed and looked at his secretary.
I invite Duke Nihak to have dinner for me... The highest standard is not to neglect the distinguished guests.
The battle situation on the front line of Haiya Province is as fierce as ever.
With the update of the version, the maximum number of closed beta players has been increased to 100,000 and a large number of new players to enter the field. Recently, many new corpses of newcomers have been born to Chu Guang's eyes.
For example, the imitator of the Burning Corps, the Hellfire Corps.
As the second airborne corps in the league composed of players, the organization of this corps has reached a scale of one thousand people.
However, unlike the Burning Corps, they are more similar to light paratroopers without power armor, and are used to using W-1A unpowered slide and an airdrop motorcycle vehicle produced by Goblin Technology.
Although the veterans of the Burning Corps always joked that they were ghost fire boys, this corps performed quite well on the northern line. They reached the T3 level and even surpassed the Silver Corps, which was firmly in the position of leading the miscellaneous troops in the A-test stage.
At least it is much more reliable than a corps that are mainly engaged in a slew of abstract corps.
In addition, there is a new mountain regiment that stands out, called the Climber Corps!
There are many hills in the northern border of Haiya Province. More than a thousand players of this corps not only figured out their own unique tactics in dozens of deaths, but also developed a special set of mountain combat equipment with the NPCs in the Dawn City Industrial Zone.
Including a hook-locking gun and short army boots with hook claws, etc.
Without equipping with exoskeletons, they can even burst out with combat power that is no less than exoskeleton soldiers with these simple and cheap equipment.
In addition, the strong man who is keen on missionary work is difficult and I want to quietly establish the Raptor Corps.
The level 99 of the Burning Corps, who originally belonged to the Burning Corps but never joined the regiment, finally retired from the Burning Corps and officially joined the newly established Corps.
At present, the actual combat performance of the corps is still a question mark, but the future is promising.
Because the players are too powerful, Chu Guang feels that he is becoming more and more like an NPC recently.
His daily job is to resurrection point and then watch the players on the front line charge forward and smash the shells forward for no money.
The current situation of the Northern Line is meat minced, with tactical operation space, but basically no strategically.
This is true from the 100,000-man team reinforced by the Legion, to the Alpha Task Force of the Academy, and the mercenaries and rookies sent to the front line by enterprises one after another.
But it is joyfully encouraging that under the siege of the coalition, the fatigue of the Torch Church has become increasingly obvious, and it may not take long to end this protracted war.
The area of Haiya Province is less than 15 mammoth states. It is true that the Torch Church is too hard to fight this war for so long.
On the first weekend of November, Chu Guang planned to give himself a half-day vacation to go to the Earth's Internet to see how other operators cut leeks, but Cheng Yan, the foreign minister of the alliance, suddenly called a video call.
...Dear Mr. Manager, although you may have noticed it, I still have to remind you that the Empire seems to be doing small moves around us recently.
Chu Guang raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: Oh?What action?
Cheng Yan continued cautiously.
...They gave the South China Sea Alliance an interest-free loan of 10 billion Xilan coins, and only made simple requirements for the purpose of the funds, and had to import goods from the local ports of the Xilan Empire.In addition, they also negotiated a steel and cement export order worth one billion Xilan coins at a price of 50% below the market price.
Chu Guang was stunned for a while and didn't say anything.
It’s not that I was scared by the empire’s big money, but mainly because I didn’t understand what this was.
Usually, this kind of situation where he can't be punished is only happening to players, and it is rare for NPCs to be punished is punished.
The last time the Gray Wolf Army raided the French Fries Port. He looked at the map for a long time but couldn't figure out what the Empire had got except for a fight.
The same was true this time, and he didn't understand what new tricks Wu Tuo was going to play.
In fact, objectively speaking, debt, as the lubricant of the economy, has nothing to do with it. After all, lending out local currency can stimulate the export of local products, and export capital is one of the three major economies of the economy. In specific circumstances, lending money to outsiders is more useful than lending money to one's own people.
Especially when the local market's money supply is less than the actual market demand, that is, it is facing deflation problems, actively importing small amounts of inflation from small economies is also a basic move, especially for an economy with rich family background like the South China Sea Alliance.
However, the problem is that the Bharat Province itself is still a serf economy. Many survivors are in the first place according to the standards of "Stars". It is obvious that this is not a problem of deflation or inflation, but that there is no market in the classic sense at all. Why do you have to force the market method?
If you have to consider it from the standpoint of the imperial royal family, Chu Guang thought about adding a supplementary clause to use equivalent dinars or silver coins when repaying, or requiring the South China Sea Alliance to collect Xilan coins when selling things to the empire, which is not that funny.
Even if you put aside the benefits, this operation itself is full of confusing things.
The alliance borrowed money from Jishi City before. The reason why Jishi City was willing to borrow was because of the gun in his hand, and on the other hand, the two sides had investments between them, and the scale was quite large. It was basically full of the BUFFs for the anti-dead bets. Even if the alliance considers its own interests, it is unlikely that it will be directly owed.
Just like the South China Sea Alliance cannot rely on the debt and not pay back the alliance's money.
In fact, Giant Rock City also adopts a similar economic control model for various farms in Jinchuan Province, including Liszt investing in Kam Tree Plantation in Jinchuan Province a long time ago.
But the nobles in the inner city were too greedy and arrogant, and the chips on the gambling table were stacked too high and finally they broke themselves.
As for the Empire...
Maybe the blood is indeed much thicker than that of the Giant Rock City, but there is no other condition, at least in the eyes of him, an outsider.
Chu Guang thought for a long time but couldn't figure out what the empire was trying to do. Logically speaking, doing charity is not the same, but it seems like someone is giving Wu Tuo a bad idea.
However, some people give money for free, which is a good thing for the younger brothers in the league.
After all, the South China Sea Alliance is no longer inflation, but the local currency collapses directly, and even the government employees use the alliance's silver coins for paying salaries.
At this time, some people are willing to come to the South China Sea Alliance to buy air that is worse than beer bubbles. Locals will not refuse as long as they are not fools.
Chu Guang couldn't help but sigh in his heart that in addition to the academy, there was another guy he couldn't guess thoroughly in this wasteland.
The Muscle Community and the Golden Gallon Port gave the empire some money, but the emperor there would use it like this, which was indeed what he did not expect.
Or do you ask Duke Galawa to see if we can borrow some of it too?
Cheng Yan was stunned.
This...is not very good.
He is not in charge of the economy, but he always feels that it is not a good thing to have too high debt, and he also thinks that Xilan coins seem useless.
However, Chu Guang and him had different ideas, and just smiled encouragement and said.
If there is anything wrong, just ask... Of course, if others really don't want to, don't force them.
Seeing that Chu Guang was not a joke, Cheng Yan could only say with a laugh and cry: OK.
After the communication was suspended, Chu Guang originally planned to put this matter aside, but in the end he couldn't help but go to the forum to update an announcement, revealing the news of the huge sum to professional players in the southern waters.
No matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat. Besides, the South China Sea Alliance may not be able to finish eating this piece of meat. It is better to let the players who are active there help the locals digest it.
For example, help them discount the endless Xilan coins to get them into silver coins at 50%.
Although Xilan coins are useless elsewhere, they are still very useful for professional players who are active in Golden Gallon Port...
It is not only the residents of North Island that are fed.
As the battle to land in Haiya Province is about to begin, a large number of players flock to the North Island, and all kinds of birds on the island were fed to a fat and strong body.
Some of them are even fat and can't fly.
Looking at the various faces on the construction site, the warlike wolf said with a strange expression on his hands.
Is it my illusion?
The dog with a catheter that was being beaten up looked up at him: What?
The warlike wolf touched his chin and muttered: Why do I feel that more people are fighting for business with us?
Originally, there were only about 30 people on the construction site, and except for him and the three civil engineering brothers, there were less than 30 NPCs.
However, I don’t know what happened these days. The number of people on the construction site has increased rapidly, and it has doubled and doubled without realizing it, and it is almost two hundred!

Mr. President, Duke Nihak from the Silan Empire asks for a visit!On behalf of the Xilan royal family, he expressed his willingness to provide the South China Sea Alliance with a loan for post-war reconstruction, totaling 10 billion Xilan coins, and it is fine to pay off the interest within 20 years.
Li Minghui was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a long time, he didn't remember what the Xilan coin looked like, so he subconsciously asked: How much does it cost to change it to silver coin?
The secretary was also stunned and said with an awkward expression.
Well, there is very little direct trade between the Alliance and the Empire, and it usually passes through the port of Golden Gallen Port... At present, the local recognized exchange rate is about 4 gallons and 5 Silan coins, and the anchors are mainly cotton for textiles and beans for feed.
After the embargo ended, the market price of a kilogram of beans in Huzhou and Baozhou was about 5 Xilan coins, and the average market price of Jinjialun Port was about 4 gallons, mainly for oil pressing and feeding.
Although the Xilan coins of the Golden Gallon Port Bank were lent and sold in large quantities, the Xilan coins were once turned into waste paper in Rowell State, even the Huzhou and Leopard State, the Empire was not a giant stone city after all. It was not only a large population but also hard-working. The blood and sweat of nearly 100 million serfs passed through the Yongliu River to Huzhou and Leopard State, and carried the Xilan coins back.
Not only that, the two single export commodities that originally determined the value of Xilan coins were slaves and livestock. Now, due to the existence of Jinjialun Port, the empire's import and export business suddenly became busy, and instead, it changed from the initially no outsiders to a relatively stable exchange rate.
Just using the data given by his secretary, Li Minghui calculated roughly with his fingers, but it didn't matter if he didn't. He was shocked when he calculated.
Eighty million silver coins?!
If the exchange rate is reliable, it is equivalent to 8 silver coins per person in the Xilan Empire lent to the South China Sea Alliance?!Is this empire so rich?!
Li Minghui felt that his hands were shaking, and he had never shaken like this when he was bombarded by ships on Anle Island.
Si Wen, who was standing next to the desk, was also confused. He opened his mouth and couldn't speak. He just stared at Li Minghui with his eyes, wishing he could snatch the pen on this guy's desk and sign the loan agreement for him!
Eighty million silver coins...
Each citizen of the South China Sea Alliance can get an average of 800!
In fact, there was no need for a crazy hint of the representative. Li Minghui just swallowed and stared at his secretary and asked hurriedly.
How do they pay?No, I mean when will they send the money?
The secretary whispered.
Duke Nihak did not say...but he is in Beidao now, don't you plan to meet him in person?
Li Minghui quickly looked at Si Wen, who was docile like a full seagull, consciously retreating to the door of the office.
I'm fine, I wish you a smooth negotiation. Dear General Li Minghui, I hope you can take us from one victory to another.
This guy never called himself a general, especially in this presidential palace.
Looking at Si Wen who had already left the door, Li Minghui felt proud and couldn't help but curse: These guys who were jealous of money!
After saying that, he coughed and looked at his secretary.
I invite Duke Nihak to have dinner for me... The highest standard is not to neglect the distinguished guests.
The battle situation on the front line of Haiya Province is as fierce as ever.
With the update of the version, the maximum number of closed beta players has been increased to 100,000 and a large number of new players to enter the field. Recently, many new corpses of newcomers have been born to Chu Guang's eyes.
For example, the imitator of the Burning Corps, the Hellfire Corps.
As the second airborne corps in the league composed of players, the organization of this corps has reached a scale of one thousand people.
However, unlike the Burning Corps, they are more similar to light paratroopers without power armor, and are used to using W-1A unpowered slide and an airdrop motorcycle vehicle produced by Goblin Technology.
Although the veterans of the Burning Corps always joked that they were ghost fire boys, this corps performed quite well on the northern line. They reached the T3 level and even surpassed the Silver Corps, which was firmly in the position of leading the miscellaneous troops in the A-test stage.
At least it is much more reliable than a corps that are mainly engaged in a slew of abstract corps.
In addition, there is a new mountain regiment that stands out, called the Climber Corps!
There are many hills in the northern border of Haiya Province. More than a thousand players of this corps not only figured out their own unique tactics in dozens of deaths, but also developed a special set of mountain combat equipment with the NPCs in the Dawn City Industrial Zone.
Including a hook-locking gun and short army boots with hook claws, etc.
Without equipping with exoskeletons, they can even burst out with combat power that is no less than exoskeleton soldiers with these simple and cheap equipment.
In addition, the strong man who is keen on missionary work is difficult and I want to quietly establish the Raptor Corps.
The level 99 of the Burning Corps, who originally belonged to the Burning Corps but never joined the regiment, finally retired from the Burning Corps and officially joined the newly established Corps.
At present, the actual combat performance of the corps is still a question mark, but the future is promising.
Because the players are too powerful, Chu Guang feels that he is becoming more and more like an NPC recently.
His daily job is to resurrection point and then watch the players on the front line charge forward and smash the shells forward for no money.
The current situation of the Northern Line is meat minced, with tactical operation space, but basically no strategically.
This is true from the 100,000-man team reinforced by the Legion, to the Alpha Task Force of the Academy, and the mercenaries and rookies sent to the front line by enterprises one after another.
But it is joyfully encouraging that under the siege of the coalition, the fatigue of the Torch Church has become increasingly obvious, and it may not take long to end this protracted war.
The area of Haiya Province is less than 15 mammoth states. It is true that the Torch Church is too hard to fight this war for so long.
On the first weekend of November, Chu Guang planned to give himself a half-day vacation to go to the Earth's Internet to see how other operators cut leeks, but Cheng Yan, the foreign minister of the alliance, suddenly called a video call.
...Dear Mr. Manager, although you may have noticed it, I still have to remind you that the Empire seems to be doing small moves around us recently.
Chu Guang raised his eyebrows and asked curiously: Oh?What action?
Cheng Yan continued cautiously.
...They gave the South China Sea Alliance an interest-free loan of 10 billion Xilan coins, and only made simple requirements for the purpose of the funds, and had to import goods from the local ports of the Xilan Empire.In addition, they also negotiated a steel and cement export order worth one billion Xilan coins at a price of 50% below the market price.
Chu Guang was stunned for a while and didn't say anything.
It’s not that I was scared by the empire’s big money, but mainly because I didn’t understand what this was.
Usually, this kind of situation where he can't be punished is only happening to players, and it is rare for NPCs to be punished is punished.
The last time the Gray Wolf Army raided the French Fries Port. He looked at the map for a long time but couldn't figure out what the Empire had got except for a fight.
The same was true this time, and he didn't understand what new tricks Wu Tuo was going to play.
In fact, objectively speaking, debt, as the lubricant of the economy, has nothing to do with it. After all, lending out local currency can stimulate the export of local products, and export capital is one of the three major economies of the economy. In specific circumstances, lending money to outsiders is more useful than lending money to one's own people.
Especially when the local market's money supply is less than the actual market demand, that is, it is facing deflation problems, actively importing small amounts of inflation from small economies is also a basic move, especially for an economy with rich family background like the South China Sea Alliance.
However, the problem is that the Bharat Province itself is still a serf economy. Many survivors are in the first place according to the standards of "Stars". It is obvious that this is not a problem of deflation or inflation, but that there is no market in the classic sense at all. Why do you have to force the market method?
If you have to consider it from the standpoint of the imperial royal family, Chu Guang thought about adding a supplementary clause to use equivalent dinars or silver coins when repaying, or requiring the South China Sea Alliance to collect Xilan coins when selling things to the empire, which is not that funny.
Even if you put aside the benefits, this operation itself is full of confusing things.
The alliance borrowed money from Jishi City before. The reason why Jishi City was willing to borrow was because of the gun in his hand, and on the other hand, the two sides had investments between them, and the scale was quite large. It was basically full of the BUFFs for the anti-dead bets. Even if the alliance considers its own interests, it is unlikely that it will be directly owed.
Just like the South China Sea Alliance cannot rely on the debt and not pay back the alliance's money.
In fact, Giant Rock City also adopts a similar economic control model for various farms in Jinchuan Province, including Liszt investing in Kam Tree Plantation in Jinchuan Province a long time ago.
But the nobles in the inner city were too greedy and arrogant, and the chips on the gambling table were stacked too high and finally they broke themselves.
As for the Empire...
Maybe the blood is indeed much thicker than that of the Giant Rock City, but there is no other condition, at least in the eyes of him, an outsider.
Chu Guang thought for a long time but couldn't figure out what the empire was trying to do. Logically speaking, doing charity is not the same, but it seems like someone is giving Wu Tuo a bad idea.
However, some people give money for free, which is a good thing for the younger brothers in the league.
After all, the South China Sea Alliance is no longer inflation, but the local currency collapses directly, and even the government employees use the alliance's silver coins for paying salaries.
At this time, some people are willing to come to the South China Sea Alliance to buy air that is worse than beer bubbles. Locals will not refuse as long as they are not fools.
Chu Guang couldn't help but sigh in his heart that in addition to the academy, there was another guy he couldn't guess thoroughly in this wasteland.
The Muscle Community and the Golden Gallon Port gave the empire some money, but the emperor there would use it like this, which was indeed what he did not expect.
Or do you ask Duke Galawa to see if we can borrow some of it too?
Cheng Yan was stunned.
This...is not very good.
He is not in charge of the economy, but he always feels that it is not a good thing to have too high debt, and he also thinks that Xilan coins seem useless.
However, Chu Guang and him had different ideas, and just smiled encouragement and said.
If there is anything wrong, just ask... Of course, if others really don't want to, don't force them.
Seeing that Chu Guang was not a joke, Cheng Yan could only say with a laugh and cry: OK.
After the communication was suspended, Chu Guang originally planned to put this matter aside, but in the end he couldn't help but go to the forum to update an announcement, revealing the news of the huge sum to professional players in the southern waters.
No matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat. Besides, the South China Sea Alliance may not be able to finish eating this piece of meat. It is better to let the players who are active there help the locals digest it.
For example, help them discount the endless Xilan coins to get them into silver coins at 50%.
Although Xilan coins are useless elsewhere, they are still very useful for professional players who are active in Golden Gallon Port...
