From star abyss

Brother Nikita, although you know a lot about war and the planet's environment, you don't know much about the economy.

Li Ozi gave a brief introduction to science:

In the Layer Abyss civilization, ammonium gold, which has the most stable value, is uniformly used as currency. Ammonium gold has divine power and contract protection, and can often be used as a prop for casting spells. Therefore, basically everyone generally uses ammonium gold as a foreign exchange currency to hold reserves. .”

For civilization, the central bank's foreign exchange reserves are an important basis for balancing the interstellar expenditure of the entire civilization, especially affecting the exchange rate of the national currency against ammonium gold, and maintaining the confidence of the interstellar financial market. The more sufficient your foreign exchange reserves are, the more likely you are to face an economic crisis , war, plague, natural disasters, and [social] invasion, the more sufficient strength we have to solve the problem.”

A simple common sense in economics is: currency depreciation is good for exports, and currency appreciation is good for imports. Generally speaking, civilizations like to adjust their currency exchange rates lower than ammonium gold, so as to ensure that they occupy a low-price position in the interstellar market , and then kill them in a big way.”

Even for narrative-level civilizations, although they are not short of money, they still need to reserve a large amount of ammonium to maintain the order of the interstellar market to ensure that their hegemony can continue.

“The most critical purpose of increasing foreign exchange reserves is to stabilize domestic capital, prevent the flight of the middle class, and prevent investors from transferring their businesses and workshops to other civilizations—especially the middle class.”

In interstellar civilization, the middle class is the best source of technical troops. They care about the education and advancement of their children, but they are also dependent on others and have no industry of their own. Therefore, they have no loyalty to the national civilization.

in short.

The Crystal Tower needs to retain people.

I made a little comparison with the official website of the Supreme Council in recent years, and the number of immigrants to foreign civilizations - basically the annual immigration growth rate increased by 60%. At most, 64 million people gave up the passports of the Crystal Tower Civilization in one year. Most of the labor force is young and middle-aged, and they are between Epsilon (5) and Zeta stage (6)...

Li Ozi is very familiar with this routine.

Only by increasing foreign exchange holdings can capital confidence be guaranteed. Once companies and workshops decide to stay, the middle-class families who rely on the companies and workshops will inevitably stay here.

This is a very normal operation method. The poor people at the bottom cannot ascend to the Zeta level (6), so they have little ability to enter the battlefield, and it is not their turn to fill in the lines. They even desire to change the fate of their families by going to battle to kill the enemy.

It may not be long before the target of military conscription is the middle class.

The interstellar battlefield is different from ordinary people. The cost of soldiers is very high, but they will turn into space junk at every turn, and it is difficult to recycle them. Those below the Epsilon level (5) will cause more deaths if they are removed. Numbers have no meaning other than damaging morale.

The problem of the Crystal Tower is still the same as 5 years ago. The battlefield is severely short of people, but it is impossible to send mortals to the battlefield, and it is not enough to pay for the fuel for a round trip.

Unless the player is like this, a natural war madman who will not stop dying and can continue to grow in the battle.

This time, we are unlucky and caught up with the Crystal Tower to harvest the middle class. What can we say?

After analyzing it, Li Aozi found no solution.

Those who compete with us for cost-effective planets must be very powerful. For the university bosses and workshop owners that the Crystal Tower needs to win over, there may be some Kappa level (10) mage behind them. We don't need to fight with this kind of people. People compete for interests, so just do our best.

Hmm...not necessarily.

Nikita touched his chin and said meaningfully:

Although I, an old guy, don't understand economics, I believe in my experience.

The Van Renkov Autonomous State is an army with a country. We fought from the edge of the abyss to the supernova belt. There is a saying in our country: war itself is the best tourism.

They may know which planets have advantages through official information, but their understanding of local conditions, especially the humanities and customs, is far inferior to my knowledge.

I have read the catalog several times and can almost recall it. There are some things that they cannot possibly know better than me.

Nikita's eyes lit up and she extended an invitation to Li Ozi:

How's it going, Leos?

'No alien understands the thinking of the natives of those planets better than I do' - I dare say that there are not many people in this universe who have the confidence to say this.

Would you like to pluck out a few pieces of wool from the hands of those academic masters?

Li Ozi pondered.

After a moment, he spread his hands:

why not?

Li Ozi raised his lips:

“It’s satisfying to get something from your hard work—but food only tastes sweet when it’s taken from other people’s hands!”

Nikita and Li Ozi smiled knowingly and launched their plan.

The Crystal Tower Civilization planned to acquire the White Candle Star for the last time, which originally made Li Ozi unhappy. Now it seems that it seems that it has revealed information about him as a buyer.

This made Li Ozi even more dissatisfied.

It could even be said that he was a little annoyed.

Who is he?

Judging from Li Ozi's glorious record of defeating the invasion of [Machine Society] and preserving the fragment of the discerning eye, it is no exaggeration to say that he is the savior of White Candle Star.

For various reasons, as well as his personal moral cultivation, Li Aozi did not publicize his name of social rehabilitation everywhere. He is a typical industrialist who does not do so many things and relies on himself. With his strength and vision from his previous life, he expanded the village of Shishou and became the largest city in White Candle Star after the destruction of Trivilla City.

With a population of 6 million, it brings together players, local residents, alien refugees, imported scientists and workers. When there is no interstellar civilization to take over, it can be said that Li Ozi is in charge of the life and death of this planet alone.

You know, there are still Tanas people on this planet who are the same as the main ethnic group of the Crystal Tower.

Li Ozi relied on his own strength and money to protect the lives of these 3 billion Ta people.

However, even so, Crystal Tower still wanted to make another round of money, and did not care about Li Ozi's previous achievements and deeds.

What is the concept of 3 billion people? The Blue Star has 2.6 billion people including the outside world.

The Crystal Tower doesn't care about this, and it doesn't even care much about Li Ozi, a junior student who was cultivated by its own civilization.

Li Ozi was very unhappy.

first.

His money didn't come from strong winds. He originally planned to go on a march of hardship when he went to space, to save money and improve his combat power. He worked hard for 100 years and fought all kinds of life and death before he could get the same amount of ammonium. gold.

After making money through spiritual maggots, Li Ozi did not immediately spend it on himself, otherwise he would have reached the Kappa level (10) long ago.

On the contrary, he invested very prudently, protecting his property while also improving White Candle Star's fundamentals, so that the quality of life of the people on this planet would not suddenly return to the era of hunger and starvation.

Although he values ​​interests, Li Ozi is a principled businessman. He attaches great importance to the relationships with the people around him. This planet loves him so much, so Li Ozi will definitely not let down the expectations of everyone on it.

Secondly, there is one more thing he cares about:

For its own macro-strategy, the Crystal Tower civilization abandoned the three billion people of White Candle Star and used them as a shield to cover the departure of the real fragments of the discerning eye.

In the past five years, Li Ozi has been taking action frequently. In order to deal with the fishy pirates who came over, he even wasted a lot of time in developing himself, so much so that he has not yet changed his profession twice.

To be honest, the Crystal Tower itself did not help Li Ozi much.

His student status was settled by Ms. Nastisa, who was born in White Candle Star. His friends and classmates are all locals of White Candle Star, and his bursary partners are also local lower-class students.

Even after the government team evacuated, White Candle Star's former Minister of Education, Balcomon, spent several months in outer orbit to recuperate in the name of recuperating from his injuries.

Instead of going to a special atmospheric planet to recuperate, staying in the outer orbit of this planet is nominally healing, but in fact it is protecting the planet.

The benefits that Li Ozi felt were all given to him by people from the original White Candle Star, and had no relationship with the Crystal Tower civilization itself. Instead, the Crystal Tower Civilization transferred away everyone who was good to him.

From village chief to mayor, Li Ozi, who is loved by this planet, has no intention of abandoning the simple and innocent people here.

Li Ozi has a bad habit: he doesn't like to owe favors.

Those who have helped you will definitely give them benefits and sometimes even more rewards, which makes you feel at ease.

Nomi, Qiu Ran, the Metro Brotherhood and other kind-hearted people all saved his life, and Li Ozi turned around to help them destroy the old frost.

Alexia helped Li Ozi a lot, and Li Ozi helped her descendants to become a republic in the Principality of Gulante.

The Principality of Gurant has given Li Aozi a lot of benefits, and Li Aozi has not treated them badly. He has brought a large number of arms to Gurant and encouraged many players to go to Gurant to fight.

According to N4, until the time when Davidlin was negotiating with Gulant, this batch of armed forces gave Davidlin a headache.

Isaac gave Li Aozi a body to recruit, and Li Aozi was even more willing to give him benefits, letting him spend his savings as he pleased.

Gretwal and Kagami Hazama helped him get into space, and Li Ozi did not treat them badly. Now they are both prime minister and president.

Therefore, Li Ozi regrets even more those who did not benefit from it.

Such as Du Zexin, Lucit and Hobbes.

These people left without saying goodbye and disappeared to this day, which has always made Li Ozi worried.

As for Yawen, Li Aozi knew that she was a [social] citizen, and even a councilor, but he was still willing to tolerate her until she left and was placed in Xingyuan. His crime would require beheading.

From now on, I will never let the people from the Crystal Tower take away any benefit from me.

Li Ozi sat upright, took a deep breath, and his eyes were bright:

Don't they like to pick up leaks?

In this case, we will leave them unable to pick up even a single omission.

Spit out all the money you earned from me!

If you don’t make money for me, then don’t make any money at all!
