Chapter 2043: Sibo Food Stamps Interest Rate Meeting

Yang was speechless.

Yukino's body was seriously damaged during the Tenju event in Kyoto, and she is no longer able to bear children.

Divine offspring are precious. If the Wu family is lucky enough to conceive a descendant of a god, it means that the entire family has obtained a ticket to the highest level of the world in the future. Who would push away such a good thing?

Just as Yukino said, she had no other choice except Tachibana Kanade, Reel, Christina and other southern barbarian women who found it difficult to integrate into the island country.

Yangno sighed.

"It's up to you. I don't care."

Yukino nodded slightly and said.

"Everyone who is eligible to visit Sakai Port has already come. We should be able to have some peace for a while."

Yang Nai chuckled.

"Don't dream, this is just the beginning, and the distinguished guests from all sides are still to come."

Yukino tilted her head to show that she didn't understand, and Yangno sighed.

  "Don't you read the latest documents?

Ii Naomasa was a really bold guy. Or, it could be said that the saint used Ii Naomasa to push the reform into deep waters.

The Kyoto Shogunate and the Kanto Samurai were reorganized, and the Daipanyi system was promoted throughout the country. Local people of insight could apply to become united front members and participate in state affairs.

The Standing Council is gone, and although it seems that the Grand Council still has the power to legislate, in fact it only has the power to quarrel. Even so, local military families will flock to it.

The core of power of the Ashikaga shogunate was the Three Governors and Four Positions, which were basically monopolized by the Ashikaga family's Yakata. Foreign officials could only rely on the Ashikaga family's relatives.

  Although the sage's reform and innovation only allowed him to share part of the legislative power with the world's elites, who among the powerful military families in Kanto, Kinki and other areas within the influence of Sōma would be willing to miss this feast?

If the Sasaki family conquers the world in the future, the Daipangi system will be the future pantaimyo system, and local daimyo who are willing to follow the Sasaki family will certainly participate in it enthusiastically.

Among the local samurai families within the influence of the Sasaki family, the most powerful ones are almost all descendants of the Sasaki family. The many privileges they originally enjoyed will be restricted and weakened by the Grand Council system.

How do you think we can appease their discontent?"

Yukino thought for a moment and asked.

"Will the saint make other compensations?"

Yang nodded.

"Your brain is quite useful, why don't you like to use it on weekdays? You are stupid and don't know anything, you only know how to solve problems with violence."

After complaining about her violent sister, Yang Nuo tightened the spring ornaments in her arms, changed to a more comfortable position, and continued.

"Did you read the opinion paper on the food stamp system?

From now on, the interest rate for reverse repurchase of Spo grain coupons will no longer be a fixed half rate, but will be decided by a special meeting.

In order to ensure the stability of the Sōma food coupons, the participants must be the Sōma families who are at the core of the Sōma regime.

In particular, the chairperson of the Council needs to be recognized by more than 80% of the descendants of the Sami before taking office, and his term of office is undetermined.

Haha, the interest rate meeting, a meeting to discuss interest rates, so interesting.

This reckless woman, Ii Naomasa, does not understand this, this must be the instruction of the saint."

Yukino repeated with a frown.

"Interest rate discussion... I don't understand, is this important? Is it enough to compensate the losses of the descendants of God in the reform and innovation?" Yang Nai sneered, but was also a little excited. She had been bored these days due to her confinement, and today she was able to talk about her proudest work, food coupons.

"You do not understand.

Since the advent of food coupons, relying on the prestige of the saint and its stable value of preserving value in troubled times, it has evolved from being just an exchange ticket for issuing welfare food to Sōma to a new trading currency.

After the rapid development of Hokuriku Road stocks and Sōba Real Estate, the added value of food coupons increased.

Food coupons are no longer just food coupons, but a currency that is easy to carry and exchange, recognized by everyone, and has the ability to maintain and increase its value.

Now, the saint obviously wants to make food coupons the only legal currency in circulation in the Sibo territory, and squeeze out other currencies such as gold, silver, copper, grain, and cloth from the market. This requires the support of powerful vassals in various places.

The most powerful local fiefs within the Shiba sphere of influence are all descendants of gods. As long as the benefits are great enough, they will definitely be willing to make Shiba food coupons the only legal currency in circulation.

Locking gold and silver into warehouses to ensure that precious metals are not circulated, returning food and cloth to their daily consumption essence, and only allowing Spo food stamps to circulate, do you know what this means? "

"do not know."

Yukino looked confused when she heard this, while Yangno laughed out loud, feeling very proud of herself for what a stupid sister you are.

"This means that the money in the hands of the people is just some paper. The Sibo family only needs to print a few pieces of paper to control the flow of materials in the territory. All the resources in the territory belong to the Sibo family.

And interest is the way to control it.”

Yukino's eyes turned red as she didn't understand what he said at all.

Yang Nai curled his lips, feeling that he was talking to a deaf person, and his proud mood gradually faded away.

Although Yukino is smart, she has been focusing on killing people all her life. She naturally doesn't understand the dirty work of finance, where one takes money out of other people's pockets and they still say thank you.

But Yang Nai knew very well that currency is a tool, a tool for trading materials. Without materials, currency itself is useless.

Over the past ten years, with the opening of the Hokuriku trade route, the Sasaki family has already taken control of the logistics market within its sphere of influence.

Coupled with the strong support of the Spoken People at the local level, food stamps already have the potential to squeeze other currencies out of the market.

Food stamps are the monetary tool used by the Sasaki family to control materials within its sphere of influence, and are also a powerful weapon that the Sasaki family must control.

Through the interest rate meeting, the Spo Shen Clan Group can decide the interest rate on the reverse repurchase of food coupons, that is, increase or decrease the amount of money put into the market.

When the interest rate is high, the number of reverse repurchases of food coupons will be large, and then there will be fewer food coupons on the market. Scarcity makes things valuable, so food coupons will appreciate in value.

When the interest rate is low, the amount of reverse repurchase of food coupons will be small, and there will be more food coupons on the market, which will lead to depreciation.

As long as the Sōma family can ensure that food coupons are the only legal currency within their sphere of influence, they can control the economic tides by using food coupon reverse repurchase to collect and release money.

The Spo-shin Group can also use this economic cycle to maximize the economic benefits within its sphere of influence, which is both popular and not ugly.

Whether it's a street thug or a politician on stage, they are in this business for the benefit.

For example, the Hojo family was a powerful local feudal lord, and its rule depended on fiscal revenue. Every year, they counted on the land taxes from the four dukes and six commoners, the land and sea tariffs for trade, the mineral and timber resources from mountain opening, and so on.

But if food coupons became the only legal currency, the Hojo family could participate in the meeting to adjust the interest on food coupons and use this information advantage to do something new.

Assuming that the Hojo family lent a large amount of capital during the period of devaluation when food coupons were relaxed, encouraging farmers to open fields, merchants to trade, and miners to open new mines, they would naturally make a fortune.

You can also use the prepared food coupons to trade with those who lack cash flow after the food coupons appreciate and when the market lacks cash flow to obtain more favorable conditions.
