The First Warlord of the Republic of China

.

Spn is approaching the end of the new year, and the Republic of China, thousands of miles away from Europe, has entered the time of the highest consumption in a year.

Every year before the Spring Festival, no matter what kind of family it is, whether it is poor or rich, they will spend extravagantly during the Spring Festival, and they will consume more things that they are usually reluctant to buy.

Especially this year, the level of national income has generally risen, and ordinary workers have a lot of money in their hands.

In addition, the middle class of the Republic of China has been initially successfully cultivated.

The private funds that the consortium encircled and suppressed were mainly those with too much money, while those middle class whose income was two or three times that of ordinary people were not included in the encirclement and suppression. [

For example, the consortium sells farms, and the income of those farms is stable, so the consortium will generally hand over the farms to those veterans. After all, the real support of the consortium is the strength of the military.

Jiang Yu also has a sufficient need to unite the military.

Therefore, the farm is like the ancient enfeoffment system. The distribution to the veterans of the military is to solve the income problem of the veterans and to cultivate the middle class.

The middle class of the Republic of China is suspected to be the main consumer force of the entire country, because they have spare money.But money is not too much, so it will not compete with low-income groups for too many necessary social resources.

In addition to those farmers, the middle class of the Republic of China also includes those senior skilled workers, engineers, scientific researchers, doctors, civil servants, military officers, business managers, and so on.

The number of these groups is increasing every year.

Generally speaking, the middle class consists of two types.

One is to hold a job with a stable high salary.This kind of person needs some level of education, or he has a skill.thereby being employed.

The other type is self-employed, such as the landlords left over from the late Qing Dynasty.As well as individual investors, some of them invest in stocks, and some operate their own businesses such as sales.Or he has a skill and makes money by technology, such as the metaphysics industry and so on.

The metaphysics industry is indeed very profitable, and there are many people who get rich overnight.But there are also more liars, and the reason why many liars tend to be unfavorable.That is their means of both real ability and deception.

It's like walking on the street, and a fortune teller suddenly came out and said that a person had a bloody disaster, then that person would definitely not believe it, and would think that he had encountered a liar.

But deceiving people in the metaphysical world is not so low-level.

Such as numerology, the trick of deceiving people is generally to calculate the experience of the customers who come to the door very accurately.Then start talking nonsense about future fate, thereby defrauding money.

There are also some people who have some supernatural powers. As long as they hand over a business card, they can see some information about the person on the business card, so that people will admire them, and then say: If you don't change your name.Your mother is going to be bloodied next year or something.Just like Hong Kong in later generations, this kind of example appeared, changing the name once to 100 million, and the business was surprisingly good.

In later generations of Hong Kong, there was another guy named Chen Zhencong.It is also a little bit capable, and it is crazy to amass billions of money through practice.Later, she altered Gong Xinru's will and wanted to swallow tens of billions of inheritance, but she was thrown into prison.

Metaphysics, as long as people with some experience, not communist fighters who have been brainwashed by a certain party, will believe it.Because its theory has been used in China for at least tens of thousands of years, from Fuxi all the way down, ten thousand years is the least.Guoshu can last for a long time, naturally it has its correctness.

But metaphysics is not a panacea. Those who deceive people have real skills. First, people will admire them, then preconceive them first, and then scare you a few times, and you will have to obediently pay to 'eliminate disasters'.

At this time, the Republic of China has established an industry standard in the field of metaphysics. Every practitioner in the field of metaphysics has to obtain a business license and take an exam to obtain it.

At the same time, let the public understand what metaphysics can and cannot do. [

The song says: One is fate, two is luck, three is geomantic omen, four is accumulating merit and five is reading.The six gods, the seven gods, the eight gods, the nine benefactors, and the ten preserve one's health.On the [-]th, choose a career and spouse, and on the [-]th, avoid evil if you seek good luck.If you want to be happier in life, you need to think about all the above.

Just like fortune-telling, what can a fortune-teller do?

One is fate, two is luck and three is feng shui, the higher the level, the harder it is to change.Fate is fixed at birth and cannot be changed.Luck is also doomed, and it can be changed to a certain extent, but it can't be changed much.Feng Shui can be changed through geomancy.

Fortune tellers can actually only do No.12: Seek good luck and avoid bad luck, but absolutely cannot change fate.Numerology only serves as a guide, but when luck is bad, you can use the guidance of numerology to put yourself in a relatively safe space environment.For example, a disaster of blood and light can be broken to a certain extent by going to the hospital to donate blood, but it will definitely not change the fate and luck.

A feng shui master can change feng shui, and feng shui is indeed more important.

Traditional Chinese medicine and martial arts can achieve the tenth health preservation. If the health preservation is achieved to the extreme, a person's energy will be full, and his fate can be greatly controlled.

Of these twelve factors that can make life happier, the more the front ones, the less graspable they are, and the latter ones are easier to grasp.

Although fate is at the top, the latter can also affect fate.But from another perspective, fate also affects all aspects behind.

After the integration of the metaphysical circles in the Republic of China, once a liar is found, he will be fined until he loses his fortune, and he will be detained for a period of time.

Relevant departments often engage in fishing law enforcement, which makes those practitioners afraid to mess around.

However, the metaphysics market in this period was still very good. Although Western culture began to invade China since the Opium War, which made national art more and more weak, the situation has reversed after the protection and revitalization of the government of the Republic of China.

Therefore, the income of practitioners in the metaphysics field is also very high. As long as they have the ability, it is very easy to become a middle class.

These middle classes are indeed the main consumers, just like selling cars.

When cars are released to the market at a price that is relatively profitable but not too lucrative, the market for the high-class is saturated, and only the middle class can afford it.

Moreover, the middle class has a large number of people, and the amount of consumption is much larger than that of the high class.

The Republic of China is very concerned about the cultivation of the middle class, and the consortium is also very concerned about the encirclement and suppression of the high-class private capital.

It's the end of the year.The purchase of cars by the middle class has become mainstream consumption.

A large number of middle-class people have purchased family cars under the guidance and publicity of public opinion, and the consumption of family cars has officially entered the middle-class level from the high-class.

But not all middle class people buy cars.People's main consumption is houses.

Chinese people have a great enthusiasm for houses.

Because Chinese people take care of their families very much, a warm and comfortable nest that can accommodate themselves after get off work is a very important social resource.

When the new year comes, the consumption of commercial housing has also entered a peak period. [

At the current housing price in the Republic of China, the economical suite has a usable area of ​​80 square meters.The layout of three bedrooms and one living room costs about 2000 yuan, which is almost five years' wages at the ordinary income level.

A mid-range suite has a usable area of ​​120 square meters and a price of 6000 yuan, which corresponds to the middle class and is equivalent to the five-year salary of the average middle class.

Suburban high-end villas.The area is more than 200 square meters, and the price is about 10000 yuan.Villas in urban areas are expensive, ranging from tens of thousands to tens of thousands of yuan.

Such a price policy was formulated by the consortium.

This price also made those high-class people scold the real estate developers for being so cheap, why are ordinary houses so cheap, and high-end houses are so expensive!

But this argument is supported.If you don’t have money, don’t think about living in a high-end house!How economical and practical!The area is large enough and has a certain Feng Shui pattern.

The population of the Republic of China has reached almost 5 million, and the entire country is so large that it has a lot of resources.

Therefore, the area of ​​the house is relatively large, and the economical and practical family suite has an area of ​​80 square meters.Moreover, it is a practical area, and ordinary workers can buy it with only five years' salary.

Ordinary people only need a down payment.You can live in it.

If a couple both work, there is no pressure to repay the loan.For the repayment of affordable housing, if you are unemployed, the bank will not take the house away, and allow you to repay the mortgage after you find a job, and only increase a little low interest rate during the period.

If it is a mid-range or high-end suite, if the loan is not paid, the house will be taken away by the bank, and the bank will not care whether you are unemployed or not.

Such a housing price is equivalent to a person in later generations who has to work for 100 years without eating or drinking to buy a house, which is very kind.

For ordinary people, such a policy makes them have no worries.

For the consortium, the consortium must allocate consumption to groups of various income levels.

The function of a commodity such as a house is to recover the issued banknotes very efficiently, but to what extent the profit should be increased depends on various aspects.

For example, if the house price is set high, can ordinary people afford to buy a car after buying a house?

If you can't afford a car, you have to bring down the price of your house.

Then there is another problem. If the price is too low, the efficiency of recycling banknotes is too low, and the money in the hands of ordinary people has a lot of surplus after excluding major consumption and secondary consumption, and some problems will arise. If ordinary people are not under pressure, they will not work.

Five years of salary to buy a house, when the price of cars is reduced to the point where there is no profit, ordinary people can also afford cars.

The economic boom lasts for almost 8 years. This is the plan formulated by the consortium, because the loan cycle is 4 years. Originally, according to the model of the American consortium in later generations, it is 6 years of prosperity and 4 years of depression, with a 10-year cycle.

However, after discussions between Jiang Yu and the high-level consortium, this cycle was extended to 12 years, which is actually 10 years, with 8 years of prosperity and 2 years of depression.

The Republic of China cannot withstand four years of depression, because the main goal of the Republic of China is to overthrow the white world, and the harvest of internal feasts can be put aside for the time being.

Therefore, in the eighth year after the first bubble economy loan was released, private capital snowballed the loan twice, and in the eighth year when the second loan was due, the consortium immediately strangled the loan.

The goal of the consortium is to allow ordinary people to almost own houses and cars within 8 years.

That is to say, if a family buys a house, a car, and various other consumptions, the consortium can use these labor forces within these 8 years to build more infrastructure and war-oriented industries.In these 8 years, ordinary people have to repay their loans.While worrying about food and clothing, there is not much money in hand.

10 years later.Most ordinary people have houses and cars, and countries and consortiums can also build a large amount of infrastructure and war-type industries.

8 years of crazy construction, and then 2 years of depression.

The loan cycle is 4 years, which means that the consortium will only harvest half of the private capital by then, and the remaining half of the private capital may survive the next war.

Because the house has no way to form any war potential, so the real estate profit is still kept relatively low, so as to prevent the private capital from sharpening their heads to drill into it.

At the same time, the consortium cannot raise the house price too high.Once the house price is too high, ordinary people can't afford other things after buying a house, and then the war-type industry will not be able to develop.

So the price must not be too high.

High housing prices, this is done in the economic colony.

This is why the housing prices in the United States in later generations are as low as their national income levels, while countries such as Japan and China have experienced ridiculously high housing prices.

Because of the high housing prices, the economic colonies put their productivity on building houses.That is to make the economic colonizers gain a lot of benefits, and at the same time, it will not make the economically colonized countries form too high a war potential.

Because of the need to form a higher war potential, and those dependent countries are also within the scope of the Republic of China, so there is no stimulation of real estate in those dependent countries.

However, Japan's real estate is much poorer than that of the Republic of China. The economical and practical type of the Republic of China has reached 80 square meters, while Japanese families have a large house of [-] to [-] square meters.Even things like capsule hotels are ahead of schedule.

At the end of this year, electrical appliances such as telephones, vacuum cleaners, washing machines, and refrigerators also entered the families of the high-income class and became the main consumer goods of the high-income class.

These electrical appliances are still relatively low-level. Naturally, the consortium will not sell the most advanced technology on the market at once, but sell electrical appliances with relatively low-level technology.Then gradually update.

So that the high-class continue to spend money to buy, and those outdated old electrical appliances.Then it can be sold to ordinary people through the second-hand market.

Not only is it relatively low-end, but the price is also very high.

But those high-class people like to buy, because they are not short of money.

The most common electrical appliance is the electric fan, which has been on the market for a long time and has spread to the low-income class.

But the high-class also needs electric fans, so some high-end electric fans with exquisite workmanship appeared. , High class welcome.

As for the air conditioner, the patent is also in the hands of the consortium.

In the beginning, it was not people who enjoyed air conditioning, but machines.

Only in 1924 did central air conditioning appear.

The Republic of China has started to use central air conditioners in the past few years, but they are mainly installed in large shopping malls and factory workshops.

For example textile mills.

Textile factories used to be extremely hot in summer, even after installing electric fans, the effect was not very good.With central air-conditioning, the working environment of workers has been greatly improved.

Movie theaters also promise to bring cool air to people in summer, and it is through movie theaters that many people come into contact with air conditioning for the first time.

Houses, cars, and electrical appliances, these are the three main consumers arranged by the consortium.In addition, there are furniture, home textiles, clothing, shoes and hats, catering, medical care, education, elderly care, and service industries, all of which are major consumer items.

There are many consumption items, and the house is currently based on five-year wages, and the wage level will increase later, so it is no problem for the public to consume these commodities.

If people have too much money, the government can increase taxes.

Government taxation is a legal money grab, but it serves an important regulatory function.

Because once there is too much money in the society, the consortium cannot print too many notes for construction, so the government's regulatory function is indeed very important.

The consortium and the government actually wear a pair of pants. The consortium is the invisible government, but the division of labor between the two parties is different.

At this time, it is in the stage of crazy consumption, so the government does not increase any taxes.

Because during this period, the government, consortia, and private funds are building a large amount of infrastructure, and a large amount of money has been spent, resulting in an increase in the income level of the people, a sufficient ratio of jobs, and a year-end consumption that far exceeds the level of the previous year.

A large number of commodities were sold, especially the houses. The stocks on the market were all wiped out at the end of the year, and even the houses that had not yet been built were booked.

Even ordinary families generally buy some luxury goods that are not too expensive at the end of the new year, and all major stores are crazy about selling new year's goods.

The end of the year is the most important stage of the consumer market every year. Every businessman is like fighting a war, and it is also the happiest time for both businesses and consumers.

The biggest cake was taken by the major department stores of the consortium. Whether it was a house or a car, they were all products of the consortium.

The higher the level of technological development, the higher the threshold, and the higher the monopoly of the capitalist class.

Looking back at the embryonic stage of capital, there are only such competitive products as textiles, and there are very few other industrial products.

During this period, various high-end industrial products appeared.

The emergence of these high-end commodities is covered by the Civil Assets Law.

Private capital does not have so many technologies, and their own research is a step behind others, and it is even more impossible to compete with monopoly capital consortiums.

The core interests of the consortium are still firmly in their hands.

At the end of a new year, the Republic of China sold 200 million family cars, basically wiped out the inventory of family cars. With such a market in the scale of the automobile manufacturing industry, the scale of production is rapidly expanding.

After a year of labor, some ordinary people bought houses, some cars, and some other commodities with the money they saved.

Living standards rose rapidly.

The common people are full of hope for the future. At this time, the Republic of China has been prosperous for 5 years. Since the railway stock market crash in 1914 and the beginning of World War I, it has experienced 5 years of prosperity.

After five years of prosperity, this once impoverished and backward country, which could not even achieve food and clothing, has quickly achieved comprehensive food and clothing. (To be continued.
