Chapter five hundred and seventy-ninth the problem of guest arrival and financial hegemony
In the dark starry sky, a fleet of quite ancient and old-style starships is sailing slowly.
Located in the flagship command center, the fleet commander Meyer, with a look of surprise and greed on his face, was stunned at a blue, vibrant planet.
"What a great place, with suitable temperatures, sufficient water resources, and dense green plants like gardens."
"There seems to be a little less mineral, but it doesn't matter. It can be obtained from nearby asteroids, and it also has a good quality satellite that just happens to be used as a base."
Captain Mel kept muttering, praising this planet called Earth. It seemed that he liked everything on Earth very much, mountains, rivers, and trees. But he did not mention the human beings living here, as if in his eyes, the people on Earth who lived here for generations were not important and were not worth mentioning at all.
"In this world, high-quality resources are always scarce. A habitable planet with a level A quality is like a peerless beauty. Any man with normal physiological functions will want to get her."
"How far is we from this place called Earth?" Mel asked his deputy Kent.
“It takes about nine months to voyage.”
After carefully calculating the optimal route for sailing, Kent replied with a very affirmative answer that he graduated from the Imperial Expedition Academy and had outstanding graduation results.
"It's too slow." Mel waved his hand dissatisfied, "The main fleet cannot arrive for a while, so let the reconnaissance team scattered around come to the earth first to plant the flag of the empire."
Kent frowned deeply and looked worried after hearing the captain's words.
Mel's fleet is actually very similar to Black Swords, representing their respective strengths and searching and expanding abroad.
Some searches are aimed at, such as Black Sword going to Weiguang Star County to find quantum civilization or their legacy. As the most brilliant existence among the stars, if the energy civilization where the Black Sword is located can obtain some of the technological essences of quantum civilization, it will undoubtedly greatly improve its own strength.
When all civilizations are declining, if the energy civilization is revived first, it may become the next star overlord similar to the mechanical civilization. Of course, the energy civilization will never be as stupid as the mechanical civilization, and will even want to fight the entire world alone.
In short, after the destruction and decline of civilization, all remaining civilizations, countries, forces, pirates, and freeman bases are all trying to expand.
"The closest to the earth is the patrol ship of the Worker Ant led by Captain Niedro. If you order him to turn now, the Worker Ant can arrive on Earth in three months." Kent said hesitantly.
"Why is this expression? Is there anything wrong?" Mel looked at Kent in confusion.
Kent pondered for a moment and said, "The Worker Ant has only one patrol ship and one hundred and twenty-eight crew members. Niedro is a very radical person and has not had a good reputation in the fleet, so..."
Hahahaha~
Mel laughed when he heard Kent's words.
"According to the information we have, the earth's civilization is still in a very low-level stage. Earthlings are like a group of ants, and it is impossible to cause any harm to us. I am a little worried that Niedro will massacre and kill a large number of Earthlings after occupying the earth..."
"After all, in the absence of robots, labor is a very valuable existence, and the value of billions of slaves is also very amazing."
...
"Get up, people who don't want to be slaves..."
After Luo Jia got up, he just opened the bedroom window and heard the national anthem playing the flag-raising of Binjiang Primary School not far away. He couldn't help but look out from afar, and gradually became a little dazzled.
It is strange to say that as he gets older, Luo Jia's feelings for the national anthem have always changed. For a while, when he was still young and raised the national flag, he would refuse to sing the national anthem loudly to show his rebellion. Later, he grew up and understood more and more, the song became thicker in his heart, so that he often had the urge to cry.
The breakfast is dumplings, soaked in hot water and heated, accompanied by milk and a few refreshing side dishes. The world's richest man's food, clothing, housing and transportation seems to be no different from ordinary people.
Every weekend when he goes home, his mother will always take out two bags of dumplings he has made by himself and ask Luo Jia to take back to the meditation center. Therefore, he often uses dumplings as his breakfast, Chinese food, dinner, and midnight snacks, which seems a bit monotonous. However, since it was made by his mother, Luo Jia couldn't bear to waste it anyway, so he had to do so.
Log in to the Secret Network as usual and check whether your two little brothers have posted a post for help. If so, we will agree on the time for the next meeting and start today's work and study without changing.
It seemed that everything was going well. Black Sword was still searching in Weiguang Star County, and it was estimated that it would take a long time to complete this task. Even if the quantum civilization could not be found, he would have to re-explored the star map. Interstellar travel is always like this. Long journeys of several months or even years have long become common.
Lan Yu has returned from the water-shaped civilization. The repaired frigate, Eight-Way Flying, greatly increased Lan Yu's confidence. He continued to live alone in the territory and planned his next trip to visit the nearby planet of the freeminist people.
I heard that although there is a lack of order there, it also has another kind of chaotic beauty. For the plant civilization that has always followed the rules, adjectives such as chaos, restlessness, and barbarity can always make them feel extremely curious.
There were no new messages, everything was as usual. After Luo Jia returned from the secret website, he went to the front yard to attend the regular meeting of the Administration Bureau. After the regular meeting, he began to study and think today. After reading books related to finance for a while, he took out a whiteboard and wrote two big Chinese characters on it, US dollars, using an ink pen.
As we all know, one of the five major hegemonies in the world is called financial hegemony, and financial hegemony can be subdivided into many small hegemonies, such as bank hegemony, insurance hegemony, gold hegemony, stock hegemony, etc. The most important of them is undoubtedly the hegemony of the US dollar.
According to data provided by the Federal Reserve's official website, the lowest production cost of banknotes with a denomination of $1 is 5.5 cents, and the highest production cost of banknotes with a denomination of $100 is 14.3 cents. The cost of banknotes with a denomination of $1.5 cents is in the middle.
This shows that printing the dollar is really profitable. What's more, with the development of technology, most dollars in the world no longer need to be printed and become electronic currency. The Federal Reserve only needs to fill in a number in the computer.
In fact, the Fed simply fills in a number in its computer. This matter itself is not terrible. What is terrible is that 7 billion people around the world are voluntarily paying for the hegemony of the US dollar.
Money is different. Zimbabwe once had a currency with a denomination of 1 trillion yuan, but it became a laughing stock in the world. If the US dollar issued an extra 1 trillion yuan, the world's economy would be in an instant.
For several days, although Luo Jia called it a holiday, she actually studied until late at night every day. According to his honest man-in-law, she never thought that finance is more important than titanium alloy, but the financial problems are so complicated that they cannot be solved.
It is really a very devastating thing to emphasize mercantilism, liberalism, classicism, Keynesianism, countless economic schools and financialism, and to put forward countless opinions and opinions.
Most people don’t know the fact that finance and economy are actually different.
Economics is a social science. The tax rate, how to allocate resources, which commodities need to be regulated, and which can be liberalized all fall into the scope of economic research.
Finance is a business science, focusing on analyzing and studying the financial market, how to price financial products, develop new financial products in order to gain profits, etc.
