The Development Bureau recruits a large number of workers.

This time we will recruit billions of workers.

Although the noble parliament of the Republic of Sausage was very surprised and raised concerns, the majority voted in favor of the passage.

Because the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.

Luo Jian said to them: "There are more workers in the Development Bureau, and the productivity will be increased. In the future, more commodities can be produced. The output will be increased, and the prices will be reduced a little. You can sell more commodities and make more money. This is one of them."

"Secondly, if more workers go to explore the situation and make money, and their income increases, they will transfer a large amount of cash into Sauss, improve the consumption capacity of the people, and have money to buy more goods to consume. Your domestic market will also expand. You don't have to travel thousands of miles to foreign countries, you can make a lot of profits at home. To form a positive cycle where the more workers, the more you consume goods and the more money you make."

"The Sausakan country has a large population, limited arable land resources, and many places are large in number and small in number, which is very poor. Now, by going out to work, the population pressure has been reduced, food consumption has been reduced, and the income has been increased. Under several factors, the Sausakan Republic can soon become a very wealthy country."

After all, the Sausage country is a country with quite oversupply of labor resources.

In this regard, there is a problem of over-growth of population under a stable environment.

In fact, it is also related to advanced productivity tools and large-scale promotion.

For example, the light-weight crooked plows, hand-made seeders, water pumps, livestock harvesters, etc. produced in Kaituo Bureau, plus fertilizers and good varieties, have greatly improved the agricultural production efficiency of the Sauss country.

The workload that originally required 100 tenants was completed, but now it only had thirty or forty people, but the grain output was higher than before.

The income of landlords and nobles has greatly increased, but they will not raise so many "idle people", so more and more people have terminated the tenant farmers' contracts and become free people.

In order to survive, part of it entered the city, strengthening the scale of the slums, and part of it became an instability factor, leading to deterioration of public security.

In this case, there are actually elements that are deliberately made by the Development Bureau, which is to absorb more working people.

Therefore, the "Plan for Recruiting Billion Workers" was cooperated by the Noble Council of Sauss, and the landlords and nobles did not dare to stop them. The gun was not in their hands, and they also hoped to get rid of some useless burdens.

In addition, the head of the country realized that the firewood and rice are expensive. The Sausa Republic under the rule of the noble parliament eliminated the imperial autocracy and was soon filled with vitality.

But he did not get rich immediately. Instead, he found that the country was full of holes and had already rotten. He spent some money to do practical things, such as building roads and railway facilities to restore business roads, continue foreign trade, and make profits.

But the money was spread, but I didn't see it for a long time. After checking, I found that the money was greedy and I couldn't cut off the heads of those corrupt officials. They were all their own people who were intimate with their relatives.

Such things emerge in endlessly and penetrate every corner of the Sausa State.

Only then did I realize that there was a reason why the emperor often beats the nobles. He didn't deliberately find fault. If they wanted to beat them themselves, they wanted to cut off their heads.

In addition, after half a year of war, most of the trade routes were cut off and local governments could not collect taxes.

Because the Seventh Prince was killed, he offended the Kaituo Bureau. As compensation, the rent of the "spatch workers" of more than one billion gold coins per year will no longer be paid.

So now the treasury is so empty that it can run away from gophers.

The nobles and congressmen are not willing to pay for the country's various expenses. Even if they have a lot of money in their hands, even if they are the masters of the country, they are not only the masters. Why should I be the sucker?

Under such circumstances, the Sausak Republic soon fell into financial difficulties, and many institutions could not pay wages and were almost shut down.

The nobles' parliament argued every day. Although they came up with a good way for each member to "donate 10,000 gold coins every year, otherwise they would lose their qualifications", some poor people said that they could not afford so much money and would rather give out "5% of their own wealth", which would be fairer, and the rich nobles did not want to agree.

"It's not a solution to continue quarrel like this, so I have an idea here that can greatly alleviate the dilemma of Sauss."

Luo Jian walked onto the rostrum and made a suggestion: "You can sell your territory to the Kaituo Bureau and rent the land of the original Okai Empire that you conquered a few years ago to us. There are two options for the price. One is to buy it out at one time and at a price of 100 billion gold coins; the second is to rent it to the Kaituo Bureau at a price of 1 billion gold coins per year. You are also nominal land owners and can receive rent every year."

"I know that the value of land is infinite. Even if it is barren, it has a value that cannot be given up at will. However, you can calculate the calculations. After the Soyas occupied those lands, the annual military expenditure increased by hundreds of millions of gold coins, but the benefits brought were very small. Because the Okai area is scarce and the output is limited, only the dividends in the oil market are pretty good, but they still cannot offset the military expenditure."

"If you sell or rent the Okai area to Xiaguo Development Bureau and get rid of a burden immediately, not only can the treasury earn more than the amount of income the treasury can reduce the pressure on you to dispel wealth for the country. It is estimated that by collecting about 1% of your annual income, you can maintain the operation of this country. Isn't this pressure too much?"

"You may wish to consider, what is my suggestion?"

Selling territory?

Sell ​​the Okai area that has been successfully won with great sacrifices?

For a rent of just 100 billion gold coins, or 10 gold coins per year?

When Luo Jian threw out this suggestion.

Many nobles want to speak up and mock.

The idea is so beautiful. The priceless Okai area is just a hundred billion gold coins. Let’s dream it!

If you increase ten times, you won’t sell it even if you increase ten times!

This is to consider the issue from the perspective of national sentiment.

But what if you think from the perspective of personal or family interests?

"The Okai area consumes too much money every year, and it takes a large number of immigrants to pass through. It will take at least twenty years to see the profits. However, the imperial finance will go bankrupt in a few days. Not to mention twenty years, it will not last for two months!"

"How many things can a billion gold coins do every year? How many trade routes can be built and how many troops can be maintained? In the previous imperial period, the annual fiscal revenue seemed to be just like this, and it was even less. With this money, the entire republic could not be supported, but at least half of it could be supported. Our pressure would be greatly reduced. With the hundreds of nobles here alone to support a republic with billions of people, all of which would not be bankrupt!"

“I have a better idea.”

Another nobleman said: "Just sell the Okai area to Kaitao Bureau and pay us 100 billion gold coins at one time. With so much money, how big can you do?"

"It will be no problem to take out 20 billion gold coins and deposit them into the treasury, plus other income, to support the country's operation for ten years."

"Take out 20 billion gold coins to strengthen military construction, strengthen the strength of the army, and then send troops to attack other unfriendly countries, such as the Roba Grassland Empire in the north and the Lotany Kingdom in the east, to capture their territory, and even destroy them! The territory obtained is equivalent to at least double the area of ​​the Republic, so why bother with the Okai area?"

"We can discuss the specific purpose of the remaining 60 billion gold coins, whether it can increase the treatment of our members and compensate the losses paid by their respective families. It is also necessary to increase the strength of our respective families so that we can better rule and manage the republic."

The words of this MP made everyone's eyes lit up.

Six hundred billion gold coins, what a terrible number.

There are only more than 500 members present, and the average amount is more than 100 million. How many years of business does it take to save so much?

As expected, doing business is not as good as running a country, and it can bring huge benefits at will.

"It's enough to save 10 billion in the treasury."

Some people also said: "The army will spend 10 billion, so that 80 billion gold coins will be left to compensate us who have worked hard and made great contributions to the Republic."

"Not bad! The treasury and the army don't have to spend too much money. I think the total amount of 10 billion is enough."

“Instead of holding Okai, let it make a greater contribution to the Republic.”

"Ambassador Luo! We agree with your suggestion. Can you take out the 100 billion gold coins?"

The final vote was released, except for a few opposition parties, most of the members agreed to sell the Okai area.

Luo Jian was suddenly a little stupid.

His suggestion just now was actually a bit of a whim, and he made a somewhat ridiculous suggestion, and he didn't expect it to be approved.

Unexpectedly, more than 90% of the nobles agreed to sell land.

One hundred billion gold coins are exchanged for 200 million square kilometers of land, and the average value of each square kilometers is 500 gold coins. Now, the purchasing power of one gold coins is equivalent to 1 ton of grain.

Seeing how these congressmen agreed so readily, Luo Jian thought that the price was raised, and maybe 50 billion gold coins could be sold.

When they heard them ask if they could take out the 100 billion gold coins, Luo Jian said he wanted to ask if there were so many gold coins reserves in the Kaituo Bureau.

...

Blasted.

The senior management of the Kaituo Bureau was in trouble.

Unexpectedly, Luo Jian used his ultimate move and reached a deal that shocked everyone's chin.

"A land of 200 million square kilometers is not expensive, and it is very cost-effective."

"However, the entire reserve of gold coins in Kaituo Bureau is only 58.3 billion, which is less than 100 billion." The head of the Financial Banking Department said.

"Then issue paper money and find ways to get them to accept paper money with the same purchasing power."

Xiao Ziyuan said: "In the future, all trades between the two parties can be settled with paper money and establish a paper money trading system."

"good!"

Luo Jian told the concept of paper money to the group of noble congressmen. At first, they didn't accept it and struggled for a while.

But stacks of exquisite printing, magical feel, and more than a dozen types of "golden coins" with anti-counterfeiting methods are held in their hands. The face value is 10 yuan, 20 yuan, 50 yuan, 100 yuan, 500 yuan, 1000 yuan, 1000 yuan, 5000 yuan, 5000 yuan, and 10,000 yuan.

There are also small denomination coins of 1 yuan, 2 yuan and 5 yuan.

In terms of purchasing power, 1 gold coin is about 1,000 gold.

And after receiving the repeated guarantee that "in the territory of the pioneering bureau, the gold dollar can buy all the goods", greed still gained the upper hand in the minds of the noble members, and the two sides reached a "Land Purchase Agreement".

After this major news, TV news and online media reports from the Development Bureau were released.

Everyone was excited and talked a lot.

"Suddenly, our territory actually doubled."

"The Okai area in the east has become our territory at once."

"One hundred billion gold coins, the price is still a bit higher. The Xuanmeng Continent is so big, and the land should not be so valuable."

"I think it's worth it! First, there is a huge buffer zone in the east, which increases the security of the hinterland; second, this directly promotes the issuance and use of paper money. I guess we will soon enter the era of paper money. Finance is about to come on the stage. As long as paper money is accepted and welcomed by all Xuanmeng people, relying on monetary easing, we can easily get rid of the sheep; third, we have found a new way of civilized territorial expansion, and just use money to solve the problem of the death of war."

"From this incident, we can see that the ruling class of the Sausa State was hopelessly corrupt and collectively profited to make people confused. This country has no essential change and may have to explore the wrong path for a long time, but this is a good thing for us."
