"Father, Mr. Engels used a strategy of diverting trouble to the west, which is comparable to Feng Ting, the governor of Shangdang County in South Korea during the Warring States Period. {I just don't know who is King Zhaoxiang of Qin and who is King Zhao Xiaocheng?" "No. Comparatively, Napoleon IV will not raise troops to attack England. His main attention is now on Russia. "In the Qinzheng Hall of Hot Spring Palace, Zhu Jishi and his son Zhu Guoxiong were discussing the changes that had just happened in Europe. Engels did make a quick move and tied the German Empire and socialist Britain together with a crown. This combination seems incredible, but considering that the current International Workers' Association is only the First International in history, it is incomparable with the Third International founded by Comrade Lenin, and the most influential political party in Germany at the moment is the Socialist Party. And other factors. It is reasonable for William II to concurrently serve as the King of England. And it doesn¡¯t take much to think about Napoleon IV¡¯s opinion on this. He must be opposed to it, but opposition does not mean going to war. Now the Roman Empire is too big, with internal disunity and many external challenges. Not only are there rebellions in South America and the overt and covert struggles between Augustus and Caesar, but Napoleon IV also dreams of establishing a Rome-Russia alliance in the future, and has now sent troops to intervene in Russia's civil strife. Under such circumstances, it was simply impossible for the Roman Empire to go to war with the powerful German Empire on land. Moreover, Britain itself had become an unmanageable mess, and no one in the Roman Empire was willing to pay for Britain's economic crisis. Of course, after the German Empire and Britain established a co-monarchy alliance, the honeymoon period between Rome and the German Empire was completely over. There are now two opposing military and political alliances in the Western world - the Roman Empire and the Anglo-German Alliance. There is also the Austrian Empire, which has once again given up the name of the Holy Roman Empire. Three countries whose positions are still unclear are Russia, which is undergoing a revolution, and socialist America on the other side of the Atlantic. Such a situation in the West is obviously in the interests of the Greater China Empire! Now in front of China. Not to destroy but to try to maintain the situation. Then quietly wait for the division of the Roman Empire between the East and the West or for Napoleon IV to make another stupid move "Xiong'er, I invite you here because I want to talk to you about barter trade. This was also proposed by Engels." Zhu Jishi didn't. When discussing the situation in Europe with my son, whether Napoleon IV would do something stupid is not something that the "Two Saints" of Greater China need to consider, but a barter trading system that is likely to be the future international trade rules for the world requires two people to carefully consider. Detailed discussion - at least in Zhu Jishi's view. "I always feel that this barter trade is a bit cumbersome to operate and is not conducive to the progress of international trade." Zhu Guoxiong shook his head slightly, "Why didn't Mr. Engels think of the issue of trade facilitation?" The full text of Engels's secret message has been given to Zhu Guoxiong read it. The introduction of barter trade occupies a large space, which is obviously the new standard of international trade that Engels wanted to sell to Zhu Jishi. "What Engels wanted was an international trade rule that did not rely on gold and silver, nor create surpluses or deficits." Zhu Jishi said calmly, "Although barter trade is a bit troublesome to operate, as long as the international barter trade system is established If you get up, it will be easier in the future." "Father, do you agree with this new trade rule?" Zhu Guoxiong has heard the implications of his father's words. "This is actually a very good rule that can keep the people of Greater China out of the competition" Zhu Jishi thought for a while and felt that his son might not understand what he said, and then explained, "The population of our Greater China Empire is There is no shortage of resources, markets, and land. Industrialization is on track. What needs to be considered now is the long-term prosperity of the country and the general prosperity of the people. "Can barter trade make the people of Greater China prosperous?" He asked in a low voice. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? off out to be the emperor of China, Zhu Guoxiong is not said to have any great talents or strategies, but his understanding of the national economy is far better than any emperor before Zhu Ming was resurrected. However, even an economic expert like him could not have imagined the general trend of manufacturing shifting from advanced and developed economies to poor and backward economies under the global free trade system historically dominated by the United States. The rule of the game for international economic and trade in later generations is that populations cannot move freely, but goods and capital can flow relatively freely. This will inevitably cause capital to flow from economies that are rich first and have high costs to economies that are poor but have relatively low costs - unless the first economies can learn from the British before the 1848 revolution and ignore it for a long time. The welfare of the people at the bottom has turned the homeland of the world's most powerful and wealthy empire on which the sun never sets into a big slum But now that three big socialist countries have emerged, who can??If you do this, you are just looking for death. Seeing that Zhu Guoxiong had doubts about his judgment, Zhu Jishi said eloquently: "The lessons learned from the British experience are right in front of us. They have engaged in so-called free trade for two to three hundred years and built the UK into the world's factory, but the results have been different. What happened? The 20 to 30 million poor people in Britain did not receive much benefit. The benefits of free trade and the world's factory all belonged to wealthy businessmen. However, when the country was facing a crisis, some wealthy businessmen took away their money and lost their capital and business interests. The experience brought the Roman Empire, regardless of the future of the country and the nation. " "If Britain had not been defeated" Zhu Guoxiong still shook his head. The rules of international trade can affect the interests of many parties and must be dealt with with caution. "Capital always pursues profits. I am a businessman and I am very familiar with the characteristics of capital. Xiong'er, do you know what the British scholar Denninger said about capital?" "I know." Zhu Guoxiong nodded. The head immediately recited, "Capital will avoid turmoil and disputes, which is timid. This is of course true, but it is not a comprehensive truth. Just like nature is said to be afraid of a vacuum, capital is afraid of no profit or a situation where the profit is too small. Once there is With appropriate profits, capital will be very bold. As long as there is 10% profit, it will be used everywhere; if there is 20%, it will become active; if there is 50%, it will lead to active risk-taking; if there is 100%, it will be used by people everywhere. It will make people disregard all laws; 300%, it will make people not afraid of crime, even the danger of hanging. If unrest and strife can bring profits, it will encourage smuggling and slave trade. " Duan's comments on capital were added by Marx to his immortal masterpiece "Das Kapital", and both Zhu Jishi and Zhu Guoxiong had read "Das Kapital". Zhu Jishi smiled and nodded, "It's not necessarily true that you are not afraid of the death penalty for 300% profit. Real big businessmen cherish their lives, but every businessman has the ability to maximize profits within the scope of the law. In an era when the cost of long-distance shipping becomes increasingly low, production will inevitably move from areas with high costs to areas with low costs, and the population will inevitably move from areas with lower living standards to areas where life is more affluent. If the planet we live on becomes a super free trade zone with completely free movement of capital, goods, and population, then the differences in living standards and income levels among people in different countries and regions will definitely be minimized. But if the world really becomes like this in the future. , What is the purpose of my hard work to establish the Great China Empire? " "What my father means I understand that the Great China Empire is a closed paradise that only belongs to my Chinese people." Regarding my father's ideal, How could Zhu Guoxiong not know? Now that Zhu Jishi has mentioned it a little bit, he has understood the benefits of this "barter trade". "Completely free movement of capital, goods, and population only exists within the Greater China Empire. The external flow of capital, goods, and population must be controlled. Only in this way will the land and resources of Greater China not be allowed to come in and be enjoyed by outsiders, and the wealth will not be will flow to other countries due to trade. This barter trade method is exactly what the father wants, but I don't understand it at all" "I don't understand why Engels and the British Revolutionary Committee proposed barter trade?" Zhu Jishi smiled. He looked at his son - although he didn't have great talents or great ideas, he was still a smart king, and he had a broad vision and was familiar with the affairs of the world. Zhu Jishi is still very satisfied with such an heir. "Today Britain has lost its colonies, and its territory is small and resources are scarce. Shouldn't it pursue free trade?" "Pursuing and obtaining are not the same thing! The British Revolutionary Committee can ask for it, but will you and Napoleon IV give it to you? ?¡± Zhu Guoxiong shook his head. "Since we can't get it, it's better to settle for the next best thing and use barter trade to balance foreign trade with us and the Roman Empire. Moreover, Engels also roped in the German Empire It is estimated that Britain and Germany will form a customs union and implement free trade internally. . Then come to bargain with us and the Roman Empire in the name of the Anglo-German Alliance. Xiong'er, will you do business with the Anglo-German Alliance? " "Yes." Zhu Guoxiong replied without hesitation, "The Anglo-German Alliance and the Roman Empire. The balance is beneficial to the Great Chinese Empire, which can only provide support to Britain and Germany through trade. But British industry will still shrink significantly. "" This will definitely be the case in the short term, but it may not be impossible in the long term. Find a way out." Zhu Jishi smiled and shook his head, but he clearly remembered that there would be almost no industry in Britain in the future. "British industry has been maintained by external demand in the past. In the future, it can only turn to the domestic market. Although it is not as large as the international market, it still has a population of nearly 30 million. In fact, it is not small. Why can't a market with a population of 30 million support the market? What about British industry with millions of workers?"
