Chapter 977: Expo Crisis (Page 1/1)

The pace of opening up is indeed faster, Yi Zhizhi knows it in his heart, but he can't wait, seeing the two looks, he smiled relaxedly: "Westerners are not flood beasts, there is nothing to worry about, even if it is fully opened, Westerners will only be interested in industrial and commercial center cities, besides, Westerners also need a process to enter the mainland." ”

Yi Zhengxing said worriedly: "There are great differences between the East and the West in terms of culture, thoughts, customs, religion, traditions, etc., and if we open up rashly, there will inevitably be many contradictions, and there will be diplomatic incidents such as the Tianjin Teaching Case." ”

"Diplomatic events such as the Tianjin teaching plan are all trivial, and they are not worth mentioning compared to opening up to the outside world." Yi Zhishu said slowly: "It is the general trend to fully open up to the outside world, we have been closed for too long, it is not a good thing to have an impact, of course, there will be many problems, but we can't waste food ....... because of choking." ”

Before he finished speaking, Cao Gensheng hurriedly walked in and reported: "The big shopkeeper, Tianjin called, Chenjiagou Xianhe Project, migrant workers gathered to strike, demanding that wages be settled according to the minimum wage....... ”

Hearing this, Zhao Liewen was stunned, "Is the Xianhe Project a cash-for-work?" ”

Last year and this year, Tianjin floods occurred for two consecutive years, the Aral River project is a river control project that cuts off and straightens, and it is indeed a work-for-relief, which is easy to be content and have an impression, however, the cash-for-work is to be settled with the minimum wage, which he really hasn't considered before, after reading the telegram, he smiled in a relaxed tone: "The minimum wage is stipulated, and it has only been half a month since I saw the newspaper, and even the victims of .......the disaster know how to protect their own rights and interests." ”

Hearing that his tone was wrong, Zhao Liewen hurriedly said: "Big shopkeeper, the minimum wage is for factory workers, and the cash-for-work cannot be settled according to the minimum wage, the purpose of cash-for-work is to provide relief, many of the victims do not have labor at all, and they are indiscriminately filling the number. ”

"The minimum wage is not just for workers, it is for all workers." Yi Zhizu corrected him, and then said slowly: "However, it is indeed not appropriate to settle the work for relief projects according to the minimum wage, and it cannot corrupt the atmosphere. ”

After a pause, he continued: "Reply to them, it is not impossible to settle the work for relief project according to the minimum wage, and the completion of the specified workload can be settled according to the minimum wage." ”

"It's still the big shopkeeper's thoughtfulness." Zhao Liewen nodded, "In recent years, there have been many disasters and famines, and there are many cash-for-work projects, which can not only improve the enthusiasm of the disaster victims, but also attract idle migrant workers ........" ”

Yi Zhishu continued: "It is also to improve the quality of cash-for-work projects, most of which are farmland water conservancy projects.

In addition, all provincial capitals and counties, especially those with frequent disasters, should be able to ensure that they can fully play their due functions in the year of famine, although transportation has been greatly facilitated, but once a major famine occurs, transportation may be interrupted. ”

In 1872, on the New Year's Day of the Western New Year, the Qing Emperor Qixiang issued an edict that in order to promote the development of industry and commerce and promote the popularization of constitutional thought, all the prefectures and counties of Liangguang, Fujian and Zhejiang, Liangjiang and Zhili, Shandong, Henan, Shanxi and other provinces were fully opened to the outside world in imitation of treaty ports.

As soon as this edict was made public, it caused a great sensation immediately, and it was tantamount to allowing foreigners to travel freely in these provinces, opening banks, schools, factories, hospitals, and churches.

Of course, there are those who oppose it, and young people who have received modern education strongly agree with this, and opponents and supporters inevitably engage in a heated debate through the platform of newspapers.

Obviously, this move of the Qing State is undoubtedly to open up a broader and huge inland market to them, they dreamed of it, for this reason they did not hesitate to start a war, what they want is not to open the market of the Qing State, now, the Qing State has taken the initiative to open the market to them, and the intensity of opening up is beyond their imagination, how can they not be ecstatic?

Under the shadow of the financial crisis, all countries are tightening their monetary policy, and many people have begun to realize that a new round of economic crisis is approaching, and the Far East has suddenly opened up the market, which is a good thing, but far water cannot quench the thirst of the near, and it is imperative that all countries are eager to get out of the shadow of the financial crisis.

On May 1st, Austria, the grand opening of the Vienna World Expo was undoubtedly a grand event for the countries of the world, although the clouds of the financial crisis still loomed over Europe, but it did not stop the enthusiasm of tourists from all over the world to visit Vienna to watch the World Expo, and the whole of Vienna was full of people dressed in costumes.

No one expected that the crisis hidden after this grand event had attracted a large number of bond and stock market speculators as early as the planning of the World Expo and the construction of the World Expo Pavilion, the Dome Hall, the park and related supporting facilities, and under the cloud of the financial crisis, Vienna was already unwittingly on the cusp of a new round of economic crisis in Europe.

Only 9 days after the opening of the World Expo, the long-accumulated financial crisis finally broke out, and the Vienna bond trading market plummeted, which then affected the stock market, and the stock market immediately broke out a cliff-like plunge, and in just one day, the stock market evaporated hundreds of millions of dong in market value, and countless people went bankrupt in one day.

The next day, the Zhennan Palace, which was far away in Shanghai, received a telegram that the Vienna stock market had plummeted, and when he saw the telegram, Zhao Liewen's heart jumped wildly.

Lowering the telegram, he said cautiously: "The big shopkeeper seems to have expected an accident at the Vienna World's Fair. ”

"It's no wonder if it's not an accident." Yi Zhifen said with a smile: "Huifu doesn't know much about the World Expo, it costs a lot of money to hold the World Expo, but the profits are also very rich, the previous World Expos are a feast for financial speculators, Vienna is unlucky, just happened to encounter the financial crisis, how can nothing happen in this case?" ”

Zhao Liewen hesitated and said: "When I called a few days ago, I didn't say that it was very successful and lively. ”

"The expo lasts for half a year, but speculators can't give it that long." Yi Zhizu said slowly: "The Vienna stock market was a tipping point, and a large-scale economic crisis began. ”
