Chapter 2938: A Piece of Waste Paper
Following Lina's instructions, when these punks went out to collect protection fees, they would no longer recognize the banknotes issued by the bank, but only wanted the Moon Spirit Crystal.
Although the influence of these punks is limited, they have made a good start. After all, the depreciation of the currency is terrible. In just a few days, its purchasing power is less than one percent. Although this depreciation speed makes many people The debt crisis was lifted, but it encountered a crisis of survival.
The rapid depreciation of the currency has wiped out the little wealth in the hands of ordinary people, so the common people themselves have lost confidence in the currency. At this time, someone took the lead and no longer recognized the currency issued by the bank, but recognized the moon spirit crystal Others quickly followed suit after that.
Although the Moon Spirit Crystal was forcibly abandoned by the government for a period of time, its value is still stable. After all, this thing has been used as a general equivalent for hundreds of thousands of years in the gamma space, so its value has always been recognized.
So in just two or three days, all the shops and individuals on the market hardly accepted banknotes anymore. When they traded, they only recognized Moon Spirit Crystal, and they didn't even accept banknotes even if they were bartering. .
"Boss, the currency on the market can no longer be circulated, and everyone no longer recognizes it." Anita reported to Jiang Feihui.
"Well, I see, I have to ask the Consul for instructions on this matter." Jiang Fei nodded and said, the result itself was what he wanted to see, so it did not surprise him at all.
"Boss, is there a way to solve this situation?" Anita surprised Jiang Fei with another sentence.
"Why do you ask this suddenly?" Jiang Fei asked.
"You know, I surpassed Yue Lingjing before, so I have a lot of money..." Anita was one of the early stoppers. She escaped the debt crisis, but was dragged down by this inflation. water.
Although a lot of currency in his hands has depreciated, he can still buy things after all. If this stuff becomes completely waste paper, it will be over!
"If you can, spend as much money as possible. You can buy anything, as long as it is the real thing!" Jiang Fei said.
"Okay, boss!" Anita's heart skipped a beat. Although she knew that these currencies were likely to be invalidated, knowing the details in advance could reduce a lot of losses. This kind of inside information is sometimes worth a fortune.
"Okay, you go get busy, I'll go to the consul." After Jiang Fei finished speaking, he got up and left. In fact, he said this to Anita on purpose, because after he said this,
Anita will inevitably throw out a large amount of the backlog of currency in her hand, and it is impossible for her not to tell her close ones, and those people will also tell their relatives and friends when they throw out the currency.
This kind of level-by-level spread spreads, and the depreciation and invalidation of currency are getting faster and faster, and the people who need to pay for it in the end must be those ordinary people who have no information, and they will definitely be ransacked by this inflation. Bankruptcy.
The unequal information is the best weapon for the elite to loot the ruled. Every time it is used, it is very effective and very smooth. After all, the rules are made by the elite. As the ruled people, there is only one way to accept it. optional.
Anita's efficiency is very high. On Jiang Fei's way to the governor's mansion, she and her relatives and friends started to take action. They began to buy a large number of Moon Spirit Crystals, and they bought them without asking the price, even if they paid No amount of money is spared, because the money will soon become waste paper.
Although after these two days of deliberation, the currency issued by banks is generally no longer recognized in the market, and ordinary people and businessmen have begun to use Yuelingjing to trade, but at least the government departments are still using currency to collect taxes, and the public service industry is also collecting taxes. banknotes.
Therefore, many speculators are still willing to earn the price difference, and the moon spirit crystals in the hands of ordinary people cannot be held for long. After all, they need to eat and drink, and they cannot get these things without money.
After arriving at the Consul's mansion, Jiang Fei met the Consul directly without encountering any obstacles.
"I was just looking for you. What's going on now? Why are these banknotes suddenly no longer wanted?" The consul asked directly this time. He could accept currency depreciation, but he couldn't accept currency being invalidated directly. !
"My lord, I didn't expect this to happen..." Jiang Fei pretended to be heartbroken and said.
"Okay, I'm not in the mood to pursue your responsibility now, so just tell me, if there is any way to do it!" the consul said, he had already discussed with those staff members for a long time before Jiang Fei arrived, as long as there is a way , he directly sent Jiang Fei to prison, and now there is too little one person to attract the hatred of the common people.
But now, in order to solve the immediate problem, the consul had to keep Jiang Fei, so he had to endure a lot of scolding.
"My lord, there are still two ways. The first one is the one I said before, directly abolishing the currency, and then enter the officer mode. All materials are collected uniformly, and then the material rationing system is implemented." Jiang Fei said.
"Why do you use this trick over and over again? Is there no other way?" The consul frowned. He had thought about it in the past few days. Cai, after all, the consul is a dictator in the gamma space, if all the supplies are collected, wouldn't they all belong to him?
But in this way, the elites and bureaucrats below will definitely not agree. This is equivalent to the consul looting them together. If everyone does not support it, then the consul is a bare-bones commander, can he continue to do it?
"The other method is obviously not as effective as this one. We can only take one step at a time." Jiang Fei said.
"Then how do you plan to go next?" the consul asked.
"Then the only option is to force shops at all levels to collect currency!" Jiang Fei said.
"Then what if they don't accept it?" asked the consul.
"If you don't accept it, you're breaking the law. Arrest people directly! Sentence!" Jiang Fei gritted his teeth and said.
"Is it possible?" asked the Consul.
"Only by harsh laws can the legal status of currency be re-established, and only in this way can the people recognize it again." Jiang Fei said.
"Okay, there is no other way anyway, so let's do this first." The consul nodded. Although he didn't dare to do too much to the top rich and elite, it is still okay to bully these small and medium-sized businesses and ordinary people of.
