For Burns, the new Royal Bank of Tuvalu proposed by him has finally officially opened after about a month of preparation.
But for Li Daniu, the Royal Bank took more than a year from proposal to official opening.
Therefore, the heart of anticipation is naturally much stronger than that of Burns and others.
Located next to the New Tuvalu Government Building, a 9-story modern circular building that has just been built is the headquarters of the New Tuvalu Royal Bank.
Compared to New Tuvalu's current population of just over 50,000 people, this 9-storey bank with a building area of 1,200 square meters seems very wasteful. However, considering the population of millions or even tens of millions in New Tuvalu in the future, the area of this bank seems to be insufficient.
However, this issue does not need to be considered at all for the time being, because the construction of New Tuvalu has never stopped.
Royal Bank of New Tuvalu is the second bank in New Tuvalu, the first being the State-owned Bank of Tuvalu.
A few days before the opening, many businesses of the state-owned bank of Tuvalu have been transferred to the hands of the New Royal Bank of Tuvalu, and even many staff members of the New Tuvalu Royal Bank are from the original Tuvalu Workers in state-owned banks.
This kind of blatant misappropriation of state resources and transformation into private resources, if it is in other countries, will definitely not escape the fate of legal sanctions. But in New Tuvalu? Sorry, the current location of the entire country of New Tuvalu, even all the infrastructure, belongs to His Majesty the King of New Tuvalu.
Therefore, neither the aborigines of New Tuvalu nor immigrants have much opinion on the opening of the Royal Bank of New Tuvalu.
On the opening day, many flower baskets were placed at the entrance of the Royal Bank of New Tuvalu. These flower baskets were sent by various functional departments of the New Tuvalu government, and some of them were absolutely loyal to His Majesty the King, Li Daniu. Tuvalu people, bought and delivered from (Fu) Fei (Li).
When Li Daniu, who arrived at the Royal Bank of New Tuvalu, saw the flower baskets, he asked in surprise, "Is anyone selling flower baskets in New Tuvalu now?"
Burns who followed behind him said: "Yes, not only flower baskets, but also many other daily necessities are being sold. You said before that you will open up related business investment, so these irrelevant commercial projects , have already opened up.”
"Eh... is this really a commercial project?" Li Daniu said helplessly: "What I want you to open up are those commercial projects that can bring high taxes to New Tuvalu. Like this kind of small business, there are Is it necessary to use the word open? Are you really going to let the new Tuvalu people buy all the products in the mall under my name?"
Burns smiled awkwardly, and said, "I didn't have any relevant experience before. Under the education of Your Majesty the King, I have completely awakened."
In fact, how could Burns have no relevant experience? Although the original Tuvalu economy was extremely underdeveloped, it was not that no one did some small businesses, and even foreigners went to Tuvalu to do business.
The reason why he has been cautious is because New Tuvalu is different from Tuvalu. All the land and buildings were purchased or built by Li Daniu. Moreover, Li Daniu also built a shopping mall that can provide a lot of daily necessities and even household appliances, which made him not sure what Li Daniu was thinking.
Speaking of this, Li Daniu also remembered that he had built a shopping mall in order to allow new Tuvaluans to adapt quickly after arriving at their new home.
"My shopping mall can be handed over to the public to operate by attracting investment. As long as the appropriate shipping subsidy is sent out, isn't there no problem?"
Burns said: "Your Majesty, in fact, we don't need any freight subsidies now. The reason for subsidizing the freight before is because of the inconvenient transportation in New Tuvalu, which caused the freight to increase the price of the goods. But now, the airport and The construction of the port has become more and more perfect, so the price of freight has already fallen back to the normal level."
"Isn't that better?" Li Daniu said as he walked into the gate of the New Royal Bank of Tuvalu.
After seeing Li Daniu, the new Tuvaluans on both sides of the gate and the reporters from afar applauded and even cheered.
Li Daniu, who was used to this state, smiled and waved to both sides without any stage fright, which made the cheers even more enthusiastic. Among them, the female voice obviously overwhelmed the male voice.
After visiting the internal facilities of the New Royal Bank of Tuvalu, Li Daniu became the first customer of the New Royal Bank of Tuvalu.
Under the onlookers of the reporters, Li Daniu sat on the counter, opened an account for himself, and got a pure black bank card numbered 1.
For the onlookers, this is a high-end bank card, but in the near future, they will know that this bank card, or all the bank cards issued by the New Tuvalu Royal Bank , are not just bank cards. It can also integrate citizens' personal identification information, driver's license, real estate information, and so on.
After handling the account, Li Daniu took out a stack of US dollars from his pocket, and then the reporters who were closer could clearly see that the 10,000 US dollars that Li Daniu took out were exchanged for a Currency never seen before.
As for the quantity, no more and no less is 10,000.
"What kind of money is that?"
"Have they issued currency?"
…
Amidst the whispered discussions among the reporters, after Li Daniu got the brand new coins, he left the counter and went upstairs.
Someone stopped the reporters who were going to interview Li Daniu, and then shouted loudly: "All journalist friends, please attend the press conference of the New Royal Bank of Tuvalu in the conference room on the third floor in half an hour."
When they heard that there was a press conference, the reporters were not in a hurry, and began to watch the new Tuvaluans in the lobby, coming to handle business.
A reporter with a relatively active mind could not wait to occupy a window, and then began to ask questions.
"Hello, may I ask what kind of currency your Majesty the King exchanged for dollars just now?"
"Hello, that is the currency issued by our country, the new national legal currency of Tuvalu, and it is a new currency."
"Isn't this bank the Royal Bank? Judging from the name, it should be a bank belonging to the new Tuvalu royal family. How can it have the right to issue currency?"
"Your question will be answered at the press conference later."
"The exchange rate of 10,000 U.S. dollars for 10,000 Singapore dollars, has this exchange rate been recognized by professional institutions?"
"Currently, the exchange rate stipulated by our country is that 1 SGD is equal to 1 US dollar, and the exchange rates of other countries. You can refer to our relevant information."
Hearing this, the reporter couldn't wait to attend the press conference for a while.
And those new Tuvaluans who actually handled business also got a bank card after providing their identity information.
Someone asked: "Why am I the second to apply, but my bank card number is after 10,000?"
The bank staff replied: "Because government employees have already been issued a new salary card by default, UU Kanshu , so your number is late. What I need to remind you is that the number and the value of the bank card have nothing to do with it." relation."
Believe me, there will be ghosts. People with investment vision have already figured it out. If there are no problems with the issuance of new coins in the future, or the development of the New Tuvalu Royal Bank, then the bank cards with higher numbers will be more valuable. There is a collection value.
It's a pity, but they can't figure it out, how can the bank card be circulated in the market after it is bound to the identity information? 360 search AFu-(.*)en.co The king who will travel through will be updated soon
Some people received brand-new new coins without any exchange after opening the account, and the amount ranged from 1,000 to 3,000.
A reporter asked, "How did they get their money?"
The staff of the bank replied: "This is the citizenship benefit of New Tuvalu, and it will be added to this card by default in the future. According to different citizen scoring standards, the monthly living allowance is different."
The reporter who reacted quickly was stunned. If all the living allowances issued by New Tuvalu to citizens in the future are replaced by new coins printed by themselves, then how much will New Tuvalu pay?
To print a $1 bill, the cost of the U.S. currency issuer is only $0.03. Even if it is to print 100 US dollars, how much can the cost increase?
Will the citizens of New Tuvalu be willing? Leaving aside the aborigines of Tuvalu, would those who choose to immigrate to New Tuvalu because they expect to receive a monthly living allowance of US$3,000 in the future?
Moreover, can the exchange rate customized by New Tuvalu be recognized by the international community?
