Chapter 745: Why choose corn
Chapter 745: Why choose corn
The Japanese people from Takeshita Junichiro felt very uncomfortable when they heard what Beckham said, as if they had not regarded them as humans before.
Let's bear the difference in status due to different forces, Junichiro Takeshita humbly asked for advice: "Why do you have to 'clothing, 'food' and 'housing'? Isn't other things okay?"
"Okay, other things are fine, it depends on what you want to exchange for the currency of My Tang Dynasty. To be precise, what is the most demanding thing for you in Japan, such as copper. If you can be sure that the purpose of our exchange currency with you is to buy copper, you can use the copper price as the ratio benchmark for your official currency.
The real way is to calculate the unit currency purchasing power between the two countries, and then find a balance point from it, which is the purchasing power of survival necessities and the purchasing power of luxury goods.
But can you calculate the currency purchasing power of your country? I, Datang, can calculate it because we have money houses, and the types of goods in taxes in various places and their final summary data. The problem is that we cannot tell you, I don’t know, and there are very few people who are qualified to know in my dynasty.”
Xiao Beidu introduced some, and she also came up with the story she heard her brother tell last night.
Junichiro Takeshita agreed and nodded suddenly: "Okay, it's copper, and there's silver."
"I suggest you use grain to calculate it. For example, your current corn is about 26 cents, and my Tang Dynasty is about 7 cents, plus 20% of the export tax, as well as the transportation costs of large ships. One dou is about 9 cents, and one dou is about 20 cents, and one dou is about 2 cents, and one dou is for you two points..."
"Two-eight**." Xiaohai spoke directly and said the number.
"Yes, 2:8**, it's better to trade one for two:8. Because your country is too small, there will be a price increase when the grain is sold in a concentrated manner, and you also need transportation costs. Oh, I am so kind, I actually gave you such a good idea."
Xiao Bei shook his head and sighed, as if he was very sorry for the Tang Dynasty.
Junichiro Takeshita lowered his head and thought about it, but still couldn't figure out what it meant.
Yamamoto asked again embarrassedly: "Why is our money worthless?"
"What does it mean that your country's money is not valuable? Is it good to have copper not valuable? So it's relatively valuable, but your copper can be sold directly to my Tang Dynasty and thus purchased our Tang Dynasty's things. Do you understand?"
Xiao Bei shook his head as if you were stupid.
Some of the people who were accompanying each other were also confused. They didn't study this normally. When they heard what Xiao Bei said, she felt it was very profound. Only Xiao Bei knew it. She had just learned some superficial knowledge and took it out to bluff people.
Shansi thought about it and asked questions that many people around him wanted to ask: "Does your Tang Dynasty money be relatively valuable?"
"Why are you like this? Can't you look at the problem dialectically? What's the value? Compared to the amount of corn in Japan, it looks valuable, but in fact it's not valuable. The situation where a dou of corn is seven cents per dou is that corn is not delicious.
Our demand for corn is getting weaker and weaker. With the research and transformation of production technology in Sinong Temple, the production of poultry and livestock has increased. People do not have to eat too much rice, and other foods are also enriched.
In fact, money is worthless, but the inflation of money means that our consumption details have been made more. In the past, a candied haws cost two for one penny, but now one penny or two penny is convenient for us to buy them. The total income has doubled or doubled, and the ratio of income to expenditure has not changed. Of course, this comes a little bit, and it does not double at once.
The reason is very simple. When a product has a constant production unit, its price growth rate is slower than the inflation rate of currency. If you can buy more of it in unit currency, it means that its production unit has better production technology.
For example, beans used to cost twenty-two cents, but they planted acres of land. Now they still planted one acres, and the price is thirty-eight cents per dou. However, the money has doubled, and the growth rate of beans is slower than the inflation rate of currency. What does it mean? It means that our per mu yield has increased. Of course, it may be that other alternatives have appeared. Do you understand?"
Bei Bei waved his hands to compare and paint, like a financial master.
Some of them understood a little smarterly and nodded in admiration. They were so stupid that they had not thought it through clearly, even though the examples given by Xiao Bei were very specific.
Junichiro Takeshita sighed secretly, "I'm so worried. Look at the fact that the children of other people are so powerful, wouldn't the big people behind them be more capable? It's not easy to fight in the future."
Yamamoto raised his thumbs up in admiration, and then asked: "What do you have to focus on the corn? Wouldn't it be better to change it to something else?"
"If you change to rice that ripens from Hebei to the north every year, what kind of rice do you have in Japan? If you change to beans, how much can you grow in Japan? You choose corn because you usually eat this food, and the corn from the Tang Dynasty is not a strategic variety, and you can buy it in the Tang Dynasty at any time.
I am sincerely doing my best for you. Do you think, what if I, Datang, go to your place with ten million guan and buy all the corn after the exchange, wouldn't you be stupid?
But now we use the value of corn to determine the currency exchange ratio, and you can go to the Tang Dynasty to buy corn back without any loss, at least you will not starve to death."
Xiao Bei kindly reminded him, but what he said scared the Japanese in a cold sweat.
Junichiro Takeshita shivered for a moment, raised his sleeves and wiped the sweat from his forehead, took a deep breath, and said, "Thank you for the reminder."
Yamamoto thought of something else, so he asked: "In this way, we have a greater advantage in exchange for one by one."
"Then we sell the goods directly to you. The price of the goods is not one to one, right? Then when we buy your things, we use your Japanese money to settle the goods, and there are other methods. If you don't believe it, try it. Remember my kindness."
Xiao Bei curled his lips disdainfully. As for what other methods were, she didn't know. Anyway, she believed that her brother and sister could kill the Japanese.
Junichiro Takeshita shivered again and looked at Yamamoto. Because Yamamoto once thought he was very smart, he went to Baoxin Prefecture where Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were officials to cheat and wanted to use economic means. As a result, he went through a lot of trouble and all the silver transported to him was sold.
Of course, I was not convinced. I used tricks in the past and fell into pieces. At this moment, I heard Xiao Bei's words and realized how big the gap was with others. Why didn't I know how high the sky was and how thick the earth was?
"Zhang Xunzhang, we also asked. As for the final exchange rate, it depends on the best choice for the people in China. But I believe that Japan and your country have always maintained an unchanging friendship. What do you think?" Junichiro Takeshita said with a smile.
"Ah? Oh, have you changed the way of communication? Well, I admit that the people of our two countries love peace, are also full of yearning for a better life and are willing to work hard for it. In the past, now, and will not change in the future. Many things have disappeared in the long river of history, and many new things have appeared, but the friendship between our two countries has become deeper and deeper, and has been deposited in the years, and cannot be washed away or worn away.
So today, we will still watch the competitions played by athletes who represent the friendship between us. We will grow in competition and deepen our understanding in growth. The sweat they shed on the field is more gorgeous than the stars, please."
When Xiao Bei saw that the other party spoke about diplomatic rhetoric, he quickly cooperated. She was most willing to say such things, which was her strength.
Junichiro Takeshita couldn't help sighing at the same time, and there was no way to go to the children of Zhang and Wang family. Yamamoto looked at Junichiro Takeshita with resentment, and Junichiro Takeshita was so inappropriate that he dared not speak out.
He just said that he was a mean person and insisted on talking about the friendship between the two countries. As a result, Xiao Bei, who was still maintaining his child's character and showing off his economic theory, also changed his words and said a lot of nonsense that was useless, and then cut off the previous topic.
If he didn't mention friendship, he might be able to learn more about the economic situation of the Tang Dynasty from Xiao Bei, which is more credible than the information collected by himself and others. He missed the opportunity to know himself and his enemy. Now he can only watch the game. What is there to watch the game? Even if it is smaller than smallpox, it is better to understand the Tang Dynasty's financial policies more important.
Today, the stadium is comparing swimming, one hundred meters, two hundred meters, five hundred meters, one thousand meters and five thousand meters.
When everyone came to the stands, Xiaobei changed his swimsuit and danced a dance in person. After climbing up, he said to Takeshita Junichiro and others: "I tried it. The water temperature is good and it can make people adapt quickly."
Junichiro Takeshita nodded in appreciation, but he thought to himself: "Of course you can adapt to any temperature of water very quickly."
When he was waiting for the competition to start, he found a good thing, the touch pad, the swimming person touched the place in front, and the lights could be turned on immediately. This thing is advanced, what's the reason?
Thinking in his heart, he said to Xiaobei: "I don't know if I can hold a competition in our country as soon as possible, especially for this swimming. I hope you can guide the construction of the venue, just as you see now."
