Chapter 1000 Financial Turmoil (4)

When An Yi bid farewell to Huang Shaohong and returned to the garrison brigade station, it was already nightfall and the lights were on. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As soon as he walked into the conference room, An Yi was choked by the smoke in the room and coughed a few times one after another, hurriedly walked to the window, pushed the doors and windows open, and let in the fresh air outside, then sat back in the main seat and asked with a smile, "How is it?" How's the discussion going? ”

Lao Shoudao smiled and handed An Yi two pieces of telegrams: "This is a reply from the United States, which is more thoughtful and appropriate than we imagined, and now we can't make up our minds, do we act according to the plan and make a lot of money?" However, this can be infamous, so we haven't come to a final conclusion yet. ”

An Yi first picked up the first telegram and watched it carefully, and when he saw the specific figures of silver reserves listed on it, he was full of praise: "Okay, with so much silver as a base, even my waist board is much tougher, at least within half a year, I don't have to worry about a silver shortage." ”

After that, An Yi continued to pick up the second telegram, only to read it for a while, his expression became serious, after reading it, he pondered for a while, read it again, and then looked at Zhou Chong'an, He Jing and others: "This proposal is very novel and bold, what do you think?" ”

Zhou Chong'an said: "Very inspired, but in a short period of time to raise the price of silver, will lead to the current emergence of the silver shortage signs become more and more severe, the domestic industry and commerce will quickly appear signs of depression, it is estimated that the loss is not only the Jiangsu and Zhejiang industrial and commercial consortium, our southern Sichuan enterprises will also have problems, especially Chairman Jiang, he is now all the energy on the suppression of the Communist Party, if the financial instability, it is estimated that he will be in a hurry to go to the doctor, looking for your trouble." ”

An Yi nodded: "What will happen if you survive for a while?" ”

He Jing said with some uncertainty: "According to common sense, without the introduction of favorable policies, the silver stored in our hands is enough to suppress the price of silver to within 30 cents per ounce." Since the economic crisis, everyone has become frightened, and if the whole market is hopeless, it may even fall below the all-time low of 23 cents per ounce. However, we can't be sure when the United States will pass a bill to buy silver, and if we suddenly have a major positive situation in the United States while we are suppressing the price of silver, then the silver that we have worked so hard to hoard for many years will not leave a single slag, and all of it will be swallowed up by the huge state apparatus of the United States. Compared to the world's leading economic powers, our power is still too weak. ”

An Yi couldn't make up his mind in his heart, but before entering the conference room just now, he heard a piece of news reported by Shen Fengdao, which made him make up his mind: "Everyone, I have important news here to inform you. Originally, we thought that the Japanese were not aware of the American measures, but it is clear that we were all wrong, and the Japanese did not use the yen to buy silver, but took cheaper military tickets and quietly hoarded silver.

"You know what a military ticket is, right? Yes, the so-called military stamps are small denomination banknotes issued by military institutions and mainly circulated in the army, usually issued when the country is in war or participates in it, and sometimes the issuance of military stamps is also a means used by the occupying army to plunder the wealth of the occupied areas. As early as the Russo-Japanese War, the Japanese army used military tickets, and since then, they have used military tickets every time they use troops abroad. After the September 18 Incident, Japan frantically issued military stamps in Northeast China, and even forced the people of Northeast China to exchange military stamps as currency. As for last year's Great Wall Anti-Japanese War, this kind of military ticket became popular in North China again. Since there is no security deposit as an exchange support when military tickets are issued, and there is no specific issuing office, military tickets cannot be exchanged for yen, and are only used for transactions between the Japanese military and civilian forces, that is, as long as the Japanese are willing, no matter how many military tickets are issued, no one cares, and even if the military tickets become worthless in the end, they have already exchanged enough materials, including silver.

"The Japanese are now quietly in North China, exchanging a large number of silver dollars with military tickets. Since the ratio of military tickets to silver dollars stipulated by the Japanese army was one to one, now they have quietly taken out the ratio of 1.5 to 1 or even 1.25 to 1 to exchange for military tickets, and the people of the people thought that it was profitable, so they quietly collected silver dollars from the south of the Yangtze River, the southeast, and even the two lakes and brought them to North China, exchanged them for military tickets, and then bought corresponding materials to make money and make profits, so in recent months, Japan has quietly hoarded about 30 million silver dollars.

"The Japanese are despicable, I never thought of this hand anyway, I used to think about how a few banks in Shanghai simply acquired behavior, causing such a serious shortage of money, now I understand that the original Japanese have already begun to do things. Therefore, this counterattack is imperative, and we must get the Japanese to spit out all the silver dollars they have eaten, ravage their seemingly strong but in fact fragile faith, and strengthen our silver reserves and ability to resist financial risks. ”

An Yi's words made everyone's blood boil, and Lao Shoudao rarely showed a look of indignation: "I didn't expect the Japanese to be so insidious, doing bad things has reached the point of reaching the peak, this time don't give them a lesson, they still think that the Chinese are all short-sighted pigs and dogs, I really blush for those who are willing to be traitors and lackeys for the sake of petty profits." ”

An Yi smiled faintly: "Old Dao, do you really think that these things are caused by the Japanese?" Now the whole country is shouting and shouting against Japan, and those businessmen will not put themselves directly on the opposite side of the people, even if they are chasing profits. The latest information from Qingdao shows that Han Fuqu is exchanging Japanese military tickets for silver dollars, you know how deep the water is, right? ”

Everyone was very surprised, and after thinking about it, Shandong has become Japan's traditional sphere of influence since World War I, and during the Northern Expedition, Japan even personally sent a large army to block the National Revolutionary Army from going north on the front line in Jinan, which shows how much Japan attaches importance to Shandong. Since the Great Wall of Japan, the situation in North China has deteriorated dramatically, presumably at this time Han Fuqu will not turn a blind eye to the olive branch thrown by Japan, and it is not surprising that he can make a big profit from the smuggling of silver dollars to enrich his military strength.

Wu Zhefu, who is the director of the Syrian Institute of Economic Research but whose real identity is the deputy director of the intelligence bureau, knows far more than many in the room, suggests:

"We have also studied Japan's military stamps, but we have not paid much attention to them because of their rough printing and poor anti-counterfeiting technology. Now that the Japanese are using such worthless military tickets to manipulate silver, we will simply give him a shoddy issue and discredit him. I don't believe that one day when it takes a truckload of military tickets to buy back a bag of rice, there will still be people willing to exchange their hard-earned wealth for such junk bills. ”

Zhou Chongan and He Jing applauded loudly, and Lu Qijian hesitated, saying that it was to embarrass the people in those occupied areas, but when the national crisis was at hand, as long as it could strike at Japan and weaken its strength, even if it was at the expense of the interests of these people, it would not be taken into account. Lao Shoudao lightly twisted his beard: "Xiao Yi, I think we need to contact your father-in-law as soon as possible in this matter, with his strong economic strength as a guarantee, our chances of winning are a little bigger." As for the United States, it is best to inform Zhang Xi and let him pay attention to the situation of the US government at all times, so that we can ensure that we can win this crucial financial battle. ”

An Yi nodded: "You continue to talk, I'll go and send a report now." I would like to hear what Zhang Xi and my father-in-law have to say. Compared to us at home, they have a broader perspective and a wider range of contacts, which may be helpful for our plans. Now that Zhang Xi has become independent from our collective, the friendship between them is still there, and his wife Sharapova is still working in our group, and hundreds of thousands of Belarusians cannot do without my care, I believe he will give the most suitable advice. ”

When An Yi came back after sending the report and saw that there was no problem with everyone, he announced the end of the meeting, and it was already eight o'clock in the night, An Yi beckoned everyone to enjoy a Russian meal at the Don River Western Restaurant, and then dispersed. During the meal, An Yi found that Lin Yaodong and Katerina were hugging each other in the pavilion by the Chengbi Lake behind the western restaurant, whispering, and couldn't help but smile, without disturbing their two-person world.

Back at the garrison brigade station, Ou Yaoting and Zhang Xi's call back had arrived. Ou Yaoting unsurprisingly chose to support his son-in-law, and Zhang Xi also agreed to this plan, but made many additions, and promised to keep an eye on the movements of the US government and Congress, so as not to cause An Yi to lose all his money due to the sudden passage of the Silver Act.

At this point, An Yi finally put his mind at ease and sent a telegram to the United States, instructing Lin Xudong and Ma Zhiyuan to act according to the plan.

An Yi didn't know that the meeting had just ended in Los Angeles, USA.

Lin Xudong was deeply pleased with the rapid development of the various groups of the Huaqing Society in the past year, and joked with his two sisters while sorting out his meeting records at the conference table:

"Xiaotong, Xiaoran, your ninth brother just sent me a telegram a few days ago, talking about the old man talking about your marriage. And guess what? ”

"What?"

Lin Xiaotong and Lin Xiaoran changed color in unison, and asked loudly in unison. In the United States for a few years, the two twin sisters have already adapted to the atmosphere here, and their thinking has changed a lot, and they have their own opinions on marriage matters.

Lin Xudong saw that everyone who was walking out of the conference room stopped, looked at the three of them, and couldn't help waving his hand: "Let's disperse, I'll talk to the two sisters about family affairs!" ”

Ma Zhiyuan was more direct and drove everyone outside: "What are you listening to? You wouldn't be salivating over the two flowers of our Huaqing Society, would you? Tell you, no way, we are two fairy daughters, where are you worthy, hehe, go home and dream! After driving everyone away, he smiled at Lin Xudong, and then closed the door from the outside.

Lin Xudong said with a smile: "Grandpa has decided, marry the two of you to An Yi as a child, and you will be the general's wife in the future?" How's it going, I'm so happy, right? ”

"Who said you were going to marry him? That guy pretended not to want us at the beginning, and then Tian shamelessly married two wives, if it weren't for his fight against the Japanese invaders, patriotism and love for the people, when he married that Feng Jieyun's woman, I would have wanted to send a telegram back to scold him! It's really shameless, I have such a good wife as Sister Chu'er, and I'm still messing around outside, I get angry when I think about it! Lin Xiaotong pursed her mouth.

Lin Xiaoran blushed: "Fourth brother, what you won't say is true, right?" Excluding the point of flowering, Brother An is a good match that can be entrusted for life......"

Lin Xudong laughed: "Actually, I hope you two marry him, Brother An Yi is something I watched grow up, and his achievements make me almost can't believe that he is the young man I met in Lin Village." Thanks to him, our Lin Village talents have taken root all over the world, and with today's prosperity, speaking of which, he is the benefactor of our Lin Village! ”

The two girls glanced at each other, tacitly did not take Lin Xudong's words, packed up the file in their hands and went out, leaving Lin Xudong to think deeply - if these two girls form a good relationship with An Yi, then the interests between the Lin Cun clan and An Yi will really be tied together!
