I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World Chapter 473: Inflation?
Remember [lnmao.org] in one second, fast update, no pop-up window, free to read!
A strange phenomenon has recently appeared in the market in the 6th block, to be specific .........
"One kilogram of 4 sub-crystals? Why don't you grab it!" The mercenary standing beside the stall couldn't help but squeeze a nugget of gold in his hand.
The street vendor yawned and gave the survivor a squint.
"Do you want money for the explosives in the Treasury? You do n’t need money to get it back? Do n’t think that gold is so easy to pick up. In the basement, Lao Tzu also came across a dead claw. Block the way, you will not be able to buy it after a while. "
After hesitating for a moment, the mercenary threw Ya Jing on the vendor, picked up a few gold ingots from the stall, and weighed two kilograms on the electronic scale. Although the bank's gold ingot is printed with the PAC specification code, it is still safer to call it.
Smilingly picked up the sub-crystal and placed it on the quality tester. After confirming that the points were enough for 16 sub-crystals, the stall owner put the pieces of sub-crystals into the bag.
Somewhat painfully looked at the gold nugget in his hand, the mercenary finally put the gold in his arms, and then quickly walked out of tune.
The price of one kilogram of 4 sub-crystals can be said to be cheap for gold. As for why? You know, you need a 10 subcrystal for a can. It means that this kilogram of gold can only be exchanged for a pack of instant noodles.
However, judging from the expression on the mercenary's face, he was still dissatisfied with the price.
No wonder he will be dissatisfied.
After all, for people on the waste land, this thing of gold is really useless. The point needed in industry can be recovered from other electronic parts. In the early years of the last days, some people really hoarded a lot of gold, but these people almost starved to death in the end.
The value of gold is because of its rare, corrosion-resistant, and widely recognized value. Relative to the tens of billions of people, gold within the territory of PAC does have enough value. But now the whole earth does not know that hundreds of millions of people can be put together. The global gold is evenly divided. Everyone can be divided into tens of thousands of tons. Is the value of gold still so insured?
The answer is obviously no.
But since this is the case, why does this mercenary still use Yajing to exchange the gold in the hands of the stall owner?
The main reason is still because there are too many sub-crystals in the 6th block!
The massive scene of NAC launching rockets into Wanghai City really terrified the survivors of the 6th block. The aliens and zombies in half of the city were torched, and the tragedy was like hell.
And then they were shocked again by the generosity of the NAC government.
As long as Yajing picks it up, he only needs to hand over 10% as the military government ’s income. After all, this rocket was released by the military government. The implementation of this order is somewhat difficult, and it mainly relies on the taxation point at the city gate for taxation, but fortunately, the taxation rate is not high, and the survivors are still cooperating. Moreover, the existence of a bank makes the inspection of accounts much easier.
Despite this, the survivors in the base made a fortune.
The hands and feet can earn seven or eight hundred a day diligently, and those with slow hands and feet can easily make four or five hundred. The ground is full of alien corpses. No battle is needed. Just use a knife to pick out the dried charcoal.
It ’s not just the survivors in the camp who made a fortune, NAC soldiers also participated in the organizing activities. It is almost half a month after the alien species and zombies in the eastern urban area slowly spread back.
In just half a month, everyone ’s hands are squeezing thousands, even nearly ten thousand sub-crystals. No one could find a poor man in the entire sixth block.
If we only talk about the rich and the poor with sub-crystals.
The survivors of the 6th block have never been so rich, but this wealth is extremely dangerous. Wealth per capita has far exceeded the total amount of commodities in the market. Even if the factory in the sixth block has been operating at full speed for ten years, these sub-crystals cannot be digested.
Along with this, commodity prices have skyrocketed. Canned food soared from 10 sub-crystals back to 50 sub-crystals, but still sold out continuously. The steel originally degraded by the second expedition once again soared back to the peak of 100 subcrystals per ton, and there is no market for the price.
Next is the return of luxury goods.
Jewelry, gold, gemstones ... these things that were regarded as tasteless in the end times reappeared on the market. Many ambitious businessmen and mercenaries, in addition to depositing Yajing into the bank, have selected some gold and jewelry as investment in the future. The price of gold has soared from the initial steel price of 100 subcrystals per ton to 4 subcrystals per kilogram.
Actually, the collection of gold is mainly a bet. If order can be restored on this waste land in the future, gold will still reflect its value.
It was just the launch of the colonial ship by the United World Organization that caused most people ’s expectations to go bankrupt. However, the emergence of NAC has made the survivors of Wanghai City see the hope of reappearing the execution, so the expectations for gold have reheated.
Naturally, gold is valuable again.
"It is not a good thing for everyone to have money. If there are not enough goods to satisfy the survivors' consumption, many capable people will take Yajing to consume elsewhere. After all, Yajing is on waste land Hard currency, life in Suzhou City or Hangzhou City is not necessarily better than here, but 10,000 Yajing can definitely become a rich man there. "
In the virtual meeting room, Chunan stood in front of the conference table and reported to Jiang Chen about the sixth block.
"What is your countermeasure?" Jiang Chen Shen asked, touching his chin.
"The first step is to maintain the stability of market supplies."
“The second step is also a step we must take anyway. Moderate inflation can stimulate economic growth, but excessive inflation will cause the market itself to die. The terrible thing is not inflation, but inflation is not under our control. Chu Nan said in a deep voice.
"You mean, issue currency?" Jiang Chen guessed after listening to Chu Nan.
"Yes, this is a top priority." Chu Nan nodded approvingly.
"Is the currency issued ... but what guarantee?" Jiang Chen asked.
Gold? Too much, not just the hands of survivors, too much gold in Wanghai City. Moreover, although the value of gold appeared in the sixth block, it was not enough to become a hard currency if it was placed outside of Jiangsu and Hangzhou.
Know that global gold reserves are estimated at 60 trillion tons, which is comparable to iron. As of 2005, there were 89,000 tons of proven mineral deposits and 125,000 tons of gold extracted. God knows what this number was before the war in 2171.
Hearing Jiang Chen ’s question, Chu Nan smiled mysteriously, so he was obviously prepared for it.
"Marshal thinks carefully, what has stable demand, and the quantity is controlled by us."
Demand? control?
Jiang Chen frowned a little, but then showed a sudden expression.
"Is it ... food?"
"Yes! We can use grain to guarantee money!" Chu Nan said with a smile. (To be continued.)
