1890 King of Southeast Asia

"Front-line battle report!" The staff officer rushed into the joint command center with a paper manuscript.

The originally noisy command center suddenly became quiet.

"On the Arab front, the air force bombing mission was a complete success. According to the battle situation, the Ottoman command system has basically collapsed."

"Part of the Third Division is carrying out interspersed and split operations under the cover of the Air Force. Everything is going smoothly at present. It is expected that the split of an Ottoman army will be completed before 5 pm today."

"Because the battle is ongoing, there is no specific battle report."

The staff officer read it out directly after reading it, and then handed the telegram to the army secretary of the joint command center-who said he was from the army?

"Not bad, got a good start!"

"Yes, a better start is very helpful in boosting morale."

"Are there any specific battle reports? Is there an assessment of the combat effectiveness of the Ottomans?"

"What is the situation of the railway line? Can it continue to be used?"

"Speaking of railways, we must speed up the progress of the battle, and at the same time pay attention to the security of the occupied areas, and don't give the Ottomans the opportunity to destroy the railway."

"It's only right to be a thief in Japan, how can you prevent thieves in Japan? The best way is to fight an annihilation war. Without people, there will naturally be no threat to railway transportation."

"Have you reported to His Majesty?"

"No, send me a telegram and I will tell His Majesty."

There was a lot of discussion in the command center.

A small victory, only the scale of an army, seems so insignificant under the huge scale of the war, but this is the first battle, and the significance is different.

The victory in the first battle has a huge effect on morale, and it also shows the combat effectiveness of the Chinese in the international arena.

Don't say that the Chinese people beat the Ottomans and feel superior, the Russian Empire is also fighting the Ottoman Empire.

The two sides fought not only on land, but also on the sea. Because the Russian Empire's Black Sea Fleet did not have new battleships, while the Ottomans did, and there was more than one, the Russians lost their control of the Black Sea.

"Control the inflow of foreign capital, raise the threshold for entry, and do not let important industries fall into their hands..."

"Start wartime financial control, restrict stock and futures trading, crack down on private trading activities, and control of all walks of life must be firmly grasped in your hands."

"State-owned factories and plantations must be stabilized, and do not expand blindly. The collected funds should be invested in reproduction or process research according to the plan..."

"I will let all departments move, mainly targeting economic crimes, and they cannot give way!"

In the office, Liu Yiming was holding a civil affairs meeting, discussing the impact of the war with the top two leaders of the Ministry of Finance, the Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Transportation and other departments.

Just after the declaration of war was announced, the futures and financial markets of the Huaxia Empire went crazy all of a sudden. A large amount of funds flowed into several industries such as rubber production, military industry, medicine, energy, and shipbuilding. Among them, the price of rubber futures rose by 10% at once!

Because of this, Zhang Liming, the Minister of Industry, and the Ministry of Transport and other affected people could not go to the headquarters to find Liu Yiming.

As the world's largest rubber producer, and rubber is also an industrial necessity, the rise in rubber prices is theoretically beneficial to China.

However, this rise should have a degree. After the war, the price of rubber has reached a high of 8,400 yuan. The number is not very large, but if this number is converted into gold, it is a full 12.6 kilograms.

The most terrifying thing is that the rise in rubber has not yet capped. European warships, cars, tanks, airplanes, artillery, etc. all need rubber, which can be described by a familiar word - rigid demand.

Since it is rigid demand, then if it is separated from the market price, or if there is an outrageously high market price, the warring countries have to bite the bullet and eat it, just like parents who bite the bullet and buy school district houses.

Therefore, today, a large amount of funds were withdrawn from all walks of life and invested in the stock and futures markets, and the war-related industries rose every day.

There are various rules in the exchange that limit the price increase of the relevant ticket system, but private transactions do not exist.

Current stock and futures trading is not a real-name system, and there is no such function if you want a real-name system. Stocks and futures can be traded through securities companies, so you don’t have to hold them in your hands, and you can hold them yourself.

Holding them yourself, you can bypass the exchange and sell them at an absurdly high price.

Liu Yiming is very familiar with this thing. Japan’s real estate market was like this before the 1980s.

This is very harmful. Liu Yiming doesn’t care whether there is a bubble or not. What he cares about is that the funds are invested in the financial industry, and domestic construction is left behind.

This is not Liu Yiming’s original intention to gradually open up the private capital channel, and it even completely deviates from Liu Yiming’s idea.

Finance is a means of raising funds for the development of industry. While allowing factories to obtain financing, it also allows people with spare money to use their money and earn some dividends.

Now, with the ridiculously high profits of finance, funds are being enriched in finance, including funds originally used to run industries.

It is good for ordinary enterprises to achieve an annual profit of 20% to 30%. With the blessing of war, the annual profit of ordinary enterprises can reach 80%, and war-related industries can reach several hundred percent!

However, this is not as good as finance. Under the catalysis of war, it is normal for stocks in related industries to double in a month, and there is no lengthy time cost like running an industry, which reduces the risk in disguise.

Everyone knows that such demands are not always available in war. They all know that the start -up factories can make money, but they do not know how long they can earn.

The construction cycle of the factory is placed there. How can the entire construction cycle be less than one year after the entire construction cycle. What if the factory has been built after a year, the war is over?

Therefore, from the perspective of many "big bosses", it is far from finance and comfortable.

"Your Majesty, the others are all good ..." Zhang Liming just spoke, Xie Hui came in.

"His Majesty, Jiebao, and the third division, with the support of the Air Force, has begun to siege a army of the Ottoman ..."

"The Ottomans have lost their unified command, and they can basically say that the first battle was sued." Xie Hui noticed that the situation was wrong. It seemed that a group of senior officials were meeting.

"Keke! Good fight, a beautiful victory is inseparable from a good start, but don't be proud, and make persistent efforts."

"In addition, don't fight too hard. We want the victory under the leadership of the Huaxia Empire. Don't let Nicholas II pick the fruit."

Liu Yiming coughed twice, which was a siege for Xie Hui.

"Yes! Your Majesty, then you are busy, I will let me put it here?" Xie Hui nodded after seeing Liu Yiming, put the telegram on the cabinet at the door, and turned to leave.

"Your Majesty, this is good news!" Zhang Liming stood up happily, and then smiled immediately.

"His Majesty, can this news be announced? If you release it now, it will only make those people more and more crazy." Zhang Liming said carefully.

"Even if financial control is not limited, they have not limited them? They have developed to this point?!" Liu Yiming suddenly had some horror.

"The exchange can definitely be limited, but those who trad them privately, we also have no way to take them.

"Futures transactions do not recognize people, and private transactions are highly hidden. This kind of thing can not be eliminated in a day or two." Zhang Liming said embarrassed.

"This is tax evasion, and this should be eliminated." Liu Yiming's fingers tapped the table gently. Although he was still talking, his heart had already flew.

"So, from tomorrow, gradually stop futures transactions."

"Your Majesty, this will cause serious financial turmoil. It is very unwise at this time!" Wang Weiguo, deputy minister of the Ministry of Finance, jumped panickedly.

"I am not accurate enough, not to stop the exchange trading of the exchange, but that all departments have gradually stopped putting goods from the market."

"The industries such as rubber, bristles, explosives, medicines, oil, etc. are almost completely controlled by state -owned, such as mechanical manufacturing, steel, and shipbuilding industries, and are dominated by state -owned."

"We cut off the financial attributes of these products in the country from the source. In the United States, I don't care. In China, state -owned products will not participate in finance for the time being."

"To cool down the financial, let those people know who is controlling this country." Liu Yiming's face was uncertain, and his fingers kept knocking on the table.

"Yes, after we go down, we will announce all companies immediately, the futures can be controlled, what about the stock?"

Liu Yiming's words, Zhang Liming understood half of it, Wang Guowei understood it. He stopped Zhang Liming's preparations to stand up and said to Liu Yiming.

"You look at it, don't forget that finance is used to assist industrial development. Don't forget the main position of the two."

Liu Yiming actually wanted to shock twice and liquidated, but at this time it was the war period. He couldn't get the consequences. In case the loss could not be passed, he lost.

Secondly, many stocks are pinched in the hands of ordinary people. They are not speculators. They just want to get some additional income after work to improve living conditions.

"By the way, next year's military expenditure budget, conventional military expense budget 8 billion, special budget 4 billion, totaling 12 billion."

"This scale printing is unbearable. Didn't you have so many free funds in the market? The national debt, the interest of the country is six % or seven %, it is the British who pays it."

One hundred and twenty billion, the scale of such funds is impossible to rely on taxes, and it is not possible to print money, otherwise inflation scares people and can only borrow it.

Some parts of the printing can also be poured in each year, and the currency that is flattened at a small point is still possible.

"Ten twenty -billion?! So many !!!" Wang Guowei didn't speak yet, Zhang Liming stood up first.

One hundred and twenty billion, the fiscal revenue of the Chinese Empire ten years!

"Ahem! It is normal for 12 billion to put it on the European continent. Last year, the British spent more than 16 billion, and the French also spent 13 billion."

"But we only maintain one front. Even if we have to go deep into the inland, this consumption is still a bit high."

"Your Majesty, can I take a look at the budget form?"

Wang Guowei coughed twice, signaling Zhang Liming.

"There is a briefing."

"He said it was right. There were four countries with more than 10 billion military expenses last year. There were two contracting countries and allies. There were more than 8 billion Russian empires."

"This year, only half of this year. The military expenditure expenditures of the Association, Britain, France and Russia have exceeded 200 billion, Germany also exceeded 200 billion, and the Austro -Hungarian Empire was 10 billion yuan."

"War is to burn money, otherwise I would unify Huaxia earlier, and then tapped with the West."

Liu Yiming handed the briefing to Wang Guowei, and then said to Zhang Liming.

"So much... How much is the Ottoman Empire?" Zhang Liming reacted immediately. China's current opponent is the Ottomans.

Even if China has to cross the sea for logistics, the military expenditure should not be much more than that of the Ottomans. With the poor appearance of the Ottomans, how much money can they pay?

"Your Majesty, what is this 4 billion special funds? To maintain the front line in the direction of the Ottoman Empire, 4 billion should be more, not less." Wang Guowei saw the vague special funds and his eyes widened.

At least there will be some staff salaries, weapon wear and tear, ammunition consumption, logistics expenses, casualties pensions, research and development funds, etc.

Although the amount is relatively large, Wang Guowei believes that this is not a false report, otherwise Liu Yiming will not let them go.

However, when he turned to the last page, there was only one row of text.

"Special war funds - 4 billion."

Although it is written as special war funds, isn't the previous one also war funds? Such a large amount of expenditure without a beginning or an end will not be approved by the Ministry of Finance without making it clear.

"Your Majesty, this is more than the total fiscal revenue of our three years. If there is no reason, it will be difficult for the Ministry of Finance to agree." Wang Guowei saw that Liu Yiming did not even explain, and he was a little anxious.

"This money is used for special war purposes at extraordinary times. The specific use is because it is of great significance, so I cannot tell you."

"Believe me, this money is definitely worth the money compared to the European war."

"Anyway, the money will be paid by the British in the end. We will use the British money to do our business."

"Don't worry, I will personally watch this money, and no one will take advantage of it."

Liu Yiming wanted to tell them that there would be a very good opportunity to recover lost territory and expand territory in the near future, but he couldn't.

Even if the intelligence department has collected a lot of information from Russia and can see the trend, it can't say it.

Trends are trends after all. Many people can't accept such a big bet.

After all, it is the total fiscal revenue of three years, which is 60 trillion in the future. It is of great significance, and most people still seek stability.

"Four billion, the name of special funds will definitely not be passed, how about war supplementary funds?" Wang Guowei gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, thinking of Liu Yiming's unique vision, he finally made up his mind.

"No problem! Of course no problem, issue it as soon as possible, raise it as soon as possible, very urgent, very urgent." Liu Yiming showed a naive smile.
