v4 Chapter 28： , A war without gunpowder

War without gunpowder

"The messenger of the Fang Empire, welcome your arrival. I can send someone to greet you first if I tell you in advance. It is really unexpected for you to arrive here so quickly."

Behind the curtain of water, Mu Du smiled, implicitly expressing that he did not appreciate the fact that these orcs arrived without a word. What made him feel even more uncomfortable was that these orcs, after seeing themselves as the king of a country, didn't even mean to kneel at all, just stood there like that.

In the crowd of beasts, dullness is inside. He still wore a trench coat, standing behind the crowd. An orc in the lead took a step and said twice. Then, a troll next to him giggled twice, put on his own monocle, and said--

"The style of the King of Bucks is well known in our Fangs Empire. Who doesn't know the courage and courage of the King of Bucks who fought the world, wiped out the traitors in one fell swoop, and wiped out his relatives? We are here today for nothing else. , Just to fix our relationship with each other. Connect the feelings."

These orcs didn't open which pot to lift which pot, and judging from their arrogant tone, it seemed that they didn't put the stag in their eyes.

Across the water curtain, although Mu Du couldn't see the opponent's face clearly, these voices also made him feel a little dissatisfied. However, it is indisputable that the Fang Empire is the first empire on the mainland. Facing their messenger, you still have to be polite.

"Oh? Well, everyone is welcome to visit our country. I hope you can have fun in the wind and sand."

The orc leader said a few words again without expression, and the troll next to him bowed and giggled and said——

"This, of course. However, before playing, we hope to take care of our business in your country first. After the matter is settled, we can come back to enjoy the style of the Bucks Empire."

The idiot lowered his head slightly to see that something was coming.

Behind the curtain of water, Mu Du smiled politely, and said, "Oh? Then I don't know, what exactly does your country have to bother you to come here?"

The troll translated the human words into orc language, and after speaking to the orc leader, the orc leader immediately took out the scroll from his arms and opened it. He held the scroll in both hands and read it out loud. He read a sentence and the troll next to it translated another sentence. And following these translated words, all the officials present heard them, and their faces gradually turned pale.

"I pay homage to the kings, and respect all the kings for their health and well-being. I feel sorry to write a letter for such a long time. It is really busy with the state affairs and unable to participate in major international conferences. Here, I, the 42nd king of the Fang Empire, Yotsuba Grass Johnny Kenin, I would like to offer you a lofty apology."

"It's really hard to tell. In the north of the sad continent, droughts, hail, hurricanes, tsunamis and other natural and man-made disasters have continued in recent years, which directly led to the difficulties and poverty of the northwestern countries headed by our Fang Empire. Our people’s lives are suffering and the economy is low and development is slow. Many of our people are unemployed and have no jobs."

"In view of the terrible situation in our country, our country hopes to be able to implore the reduction of the value of our country's currency. According to the previous law, all countries in the east and south directions of the sorrowful mainland use the Sura currency. Inel is the main currency. Therefore, in order to protect the country’s economic system, our country will no longer accept the exchange of Sura. Moreover, the exchange ratio of Sura to Inel has also been reduced from the original 1:6.3 It’s 1 to 11.45."

"It's really helpless for the country's economy to lower and depreciate the currency. I hope that the kings of all nations of mankind can agree to this devaluation for the sake of being a member of the sad mainland. It will provide more job opportunities for our country, and it will also bring you Better purchasing power. Here, I, the King of Fangs Empire, once again thank all human kings for their kindness and kindness."

Voice, fall.

In an instant, the entire Crystal Conference Hall was silent.

Everyone looked at the group of orcs, watching them put away the scrolls.

Even Mu Du opened his mouth blankly and said nothing. iǎ apricot and iǎ Jin were also sitting in their own chairs, and had no reaction to the sudden change in front of them.

"Hehe, I am really sorry. For this reason, I hope that countries can agree to our country's currency devaluation. If the King of Bucks has no objection, that would be great."

agree?

How is it possible to agree?

The idiot stood in the corner and rolled his eyes, and immediately understood what card the Fang Empire was playing this time. But the problem is that this time the problem is not just a problem that can be solved by force.

Currency war……

That four-leaf clover king would actually play such a card...

Ruthless, it's too ruthless.

"The four-leaf clover king...is making some kind of joke? I'm sorry, my smile is so low that I can't seem to laugh."

The corner of Mu Du's mouth twitched. He opened his hand and said, "Everyone knows that the Tusk Empire is the first empire on the sad continent today. The northwest of the continent can be said to be completely your country's territory. Other than that. In addition, your country should have many vassal states. Under such circumstances, you... actually told me that your country’s economy is down?"

The troll chuckled, lifted the monocle on his face, and said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, King of Bucks. The country is a big country, and the impact will naturally be greater once it encounters an economic crisis. It is indeed a vast territory, but the price in exchange for this is insufficient management and economic recession in many places. Therefore, it is not a strange thing that our country requires currency devaluation."

"Currency depreciation?! You directly depreciated nearly half! This is also called currency devaluation?!"

Duke Norios finally couldn't help it. He jumped out and pointed directly at the troll and shouted: "You have depreciated, what do you let us human nations do? No one on the sad continent knows that your Fang empire is a labor-intensive production type, yours Once the currency depreciates, the goods we import from your country will naturally become cheaper! In this way, the impact on our country’s manufacturing industry can be said to be fatal! And... you depreciate by half at once?! This is equivalent to The goods exported from your country are all half cheaper! How can our domestic production industry compete with you in price?!"

Currency war, this thing can only be launched by the country, a battle without gunpowder.

Many people think that the so-called battles between nations often only have military strength, but to many extents, the economic lifeline has a more powerful role than military strength.

Idiots care about money, so they know what's inside. The Fang Empire is a labor-intensive country. Although the country’s annual export ratio has not been given any official figures, from Mudu’s current attitude, the country’s export rate should exceed 4%. More than ten. If Inel suddenly depreciates sharply, it will inevitably lead to a large increase in their product output channels. Because if there are two kinds of the same goods, the selling price of the goods made by the Tusk Empire is only half the selling price of the goods made by the Buck Empire, then no one will buy the goods of the Buck Empire.

The problem that may result from this is that a large number of production and manufacturing industries close down and a large number of workers are unemployed. If a large number of people are unemployed in a country, it will cause social unrest. If the king of this country wants to solve these unemployment problems, he needs to invest more funds to create jobs, but this often requires a lot of manpower and material resources, and the effect may not be good.

Yes, as long as Inel’s depreciation exceeds a certain level, nearly half of the shops in Fengchuansha must be closed. Moreover, because the Fang empire is very large, there are everything to make, and it is used in almost every field of social life. They have output for everything, food, clothing, shelter and transportation. This can be said to be fatal to a Chinese country like the Bucks Empire. If some countries rely solely on handicraft production and exports to maintain their domestic economy, it is likely that this country will go bankrupt, and the Fang Empire will be able to destroy a large number of countries that depend on it for a living without a single soldier.

"If there are benefits, there are naturally disadvantages."

Facing the roar of Duke Norius, the orc leader did not ask the troll next to him to interpret, but took a step directly, opened his mouth, and shouted—

"After the devaluation of our country's currency, the purchasing power of our people in your country will naturally decrease. But on the contrary, when the human country comes to our Fang Empire, the purchasing power will naturally rise substantially. This is fairness."

An idiot thought about this question, but it was obvious that the words of the orc leader were pure polite words.

Although the Fang Empire is a big country that exports products, it is, on the contrary, a country that imports products. The idiot noticed when I went to Baleful Town before, these orcs didn't seem to be very particular about the taste of life. In other words, their blood originally advocated primitive and wild life, so they have no interest in things that improve the quality of life. What's more, if the value of Inel is depreciated, the prices of commodities imported into the Fang Empire by human countries will rise sharply. Who will buy these things?

As for investment, once Inel depreciates, the human countries with Sura in their hands will gain a lot of purchasing power. But these purchasing power will only become apparent when traveling to the Fang Empire. So, how many people have the courage to travel to the Fang Empire? How many people have the guts to travel in the Fang Empire and invest in businesses that the orcs don't care about?

The orc leader stretched out his hand, spread it out, and slowly said, "King of the stag, I know this is hard to accept. But, please think about it. In fact, since the second era, Sura has always been a sad continent. The currency with the widest scope of application in China. In the second era, our orcs still existed in the form of tribes, and there was no monetary policy at all. That is to say, after the founding of our country, there appeared on this continent. The second currency, Inel."

"Now, after all, there are still a few countries that mainly use Inel. In general, only our Fang Empire and some countries in the northwest. Almost all countries in the southeast use sura. Sura is used as the international currency. It has already been established by convention. And this time, if it is not because of the continuous natural and man-made disasters in our country, we do not want to reduce our national power. But if Inel depreciates, if it is not for trade with our country, it will be for all countries. It doesn’t make a big difference. Is it? So, I hope your country will consider this matter, and hope that you will get an understanding answer. That’s the purpose of my visit this time."

Obviously, isn't it?

"An understanding answer. It is not an "agree" or a "disagree" answer.

It can be seen that the Fang King has already prepared for devaluation, and does not need the consent of other countries. However, the king also has such capital.

Who calls the Fang Empire the most powerful country on the sad continent today? You disagree? May I?

"Then, we will retire. I hope that the King of Bucks can consider this agreement and agree with pleasure. In this way, I can express my gratitude to you on behalf of the people of our country who are living in dire straits."

Orcs, stepped back.

They were just like when they came, neither humble nor overbearing, but after a slight salute, they left this conference hall and disappeared.

Just throw this extremely tricky question to everyone here now.

The King of Bucks, his officials, and...

moron.

"Your Majesty! This is definitely a threat to the Fang Empire! These orcs are simply defiant!"

The Duke of Norius came forward and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I suggest that our country immediately stop all trade with the Fang Empire. At the same time, adopt economic austerity policies to maintain our country's prices. Otherwise, wait until the various devaluations of the orcs. After the policy comes out, we will fall into complete passivity!"

Mu Du frowned at the moment, leaning on his seat, thinking silently. The king does not have the ability to deal with emergencies. Maybe in the war, he can still do something, but in the internal affairs, when encountering this kind of problem, it will only make him feel a headache.

Economic contraction? is this okay? You know, it is well known that things in the Fang Empire are cheap. Although humans don't want to be able to enter the territory of the orcs, buying cheap things from the territory of the orcs has become a common sense existence. Once the purchase of those goods is stopped, domestic prices will inevitably rise. To be honest, prices are going up, but just like the unemployment rate, it is a headache.

Damn... what should I do? In this case, what should be done?

Evil fire... Will you give me a little bit of your internal affairs? Tell me... what should I do now?

"Wait, Lord Norius. Stop all trade? You think it's simple. My family made a fortune through trade with the Fang Empire. If you propose to stop, you want me to go bankrupt immediately, I Did my family and my family immediately start starving?"

An affiliated family of the Goodsey family walked out without flinching. Although the other party was only an earl, it was not something to look at your position on matters of financial interest.

"Huh! In order to curb the malicious plans of the orcs, some sacrifices are taken for granted! Moreover, your family is actually trading with the orcs? Do you still have a sense of national honor?! Of course, you can only buy our stags. How can you buy fangs if you produce it yourself?!"

Facing the question of Duke Norius, another courtier who did not belong to the two factions could not listen. He immediately said: "My lord, what you said is wrong. Now the products exported by the Fang Empire are in the medical guidance. Power, technology, silk, food, animal husbandry, eating, clothing, housing, transportation and other aspects have hunting. How can it be said to stop and stop? This is simply unrealistic!"

"Then what do you want to do?"

A member of the Duke of Norius’s affiliated family came out, spreading his hands and said: “Let the other party implement dumping and suppress our domestic manufacturing and production industries? By then, the whole street will be full of unemployed workers and Farmer. The warehouse is full of grains that cannot be sold, and even the country is too expensive to buy, and can only rot! You think this is good, isn't it?!"

The quarreling quarrels began to gather in this meeting hall.

Everyone has their own interests, and they all want to let their own thoughts overwhelm the other.

Those who trade with the Tusk Empire or who usually buy goods are always Tusk, but they strongly disagree to stop trade and impose economic blockade. And his family has a manufacturing industry, and thinks that the dumping of goods by the Fang Empire is likely to have an impact on his family's industry, and he strongly advocates the cessation of trade activities.

This is an economic dispute. As long as it is money, it is impossible to satisfy everyone.

Is this vulgar?

Not vulgar.

The question of money cannot be vulgar.

Who dares to say that the economic lifeline is vulgar? Who dares to say that he can escape this kind of war?

impossible.

Now that the problem has arisen, the only way to solve it can be done.

But the problem now is...

What kind of method should be used to solve it?

"Huh... Stop it!"

While the idiot was thinking, sitting over there and hearing the current iǎjin, he suddenly stood up and shouted.

In an instant, the original noisy Crystal Conference Hall immediately became quiet. The officials also turned their heads and looked at the young prince.

Jin coughed and stood up. Nini, who had been standing behind him since just now, quickly walked over and took his arm. And this action of the iǎnv child made the Goodsey family member who has no production industry a smile that does not need to be elaborated...
