Chapter 791: National Special Fund Returning Wealth to the People
"Sister, haven't you seen that when these tycoons from the Silver Wing Business Alliance made sky-high prices, others felt as if they had swallowed eggs whole, feeling uncomfortable, jealous, and unbelievable.
Now that I think about it, he is really a rich man!"
In the Imperial Palace of China, He An told the story of the bidding meeting to his sister He Ning. He Ning couldn't help but chuckle. In order to prepare for pregnancy, she rarely even went online recently, otherwise she would probably follow him to watch the fun.
Zhang Shusheng also nodded and said: "These people in the Silver Wings Business Alliance are really rich people. They paid for 30 million cosmic coins without even blinking. They transferred the money directly in cash, which was very refreshing.
Not only did he buy 300 Tianlong battleships, but he also took away 500 main guns through continuous bidding, which is really the style of a rich man."
"Your Majesty, if the Silver Wing Business Alliance is so rich, why doesn't it buy an F-class battleship from the Silver Moon Empire or the Guluo Federation? Although in their eyes, our Tianlong Battleship is already a true F-class battleship."
He Ning asked curiously.
Zhang Shusheng: "This issue actually involves the game between big powers. Now, the Silver Moon and Guluo Federation adopt an application system for selling F-class battleships. For this kind of authorization-style transaction, although the authorization price is not high, it is basically maintained at
It’s about 10 million cosmic coins, but it’s often difficult to get approval.
This is not a normal trade price. Even the purchase of F-class battleships between level three civilizations exceeds 10 million cosmic coins, usually between 10 and 15 million cosmic coins.[
The Silver Wings Business Alliance is a country with very developed commerce and a relatively weak military. Although its conventional fleet is very large, it has been unable to produce F-class battleships. Their strongest battleship is the quasi-F class.
This time they have a strong interest in Tianlong battleships. Rather than purchasing hundreds of them to strengthen their military strength, they want to buy them back for large-scale research. Learn and understand the manufacturing process of advanced battleships from actual use, and learn from the details.
Improve your own warship manufacturing level.
They have the money to purchase F-class battleships from the Silver Moon Empire and the Guru Federation, but as a result of their extremely developed economy, they are jealous of the two major powers. Due to their special influence in business, although they will not be annexed by the two countries, they will not be annexed by the two countries.
has been restricted from providing arms products.
Not to mention F-class battleships.
The war storm sweeping across the entire Southwest Star Territory has turned into a huge wave, and the Silver Wings Business Alliance cannot avoid it."
"So that's it! Brother-in-law, they say that the main battleships of the third-level civilization are actually quasi-F-level, and the elite fleet is the F-level battleship. Is that true?"
He An also asked curiously.
"Yes, F-class battleships are expensive to build, especially because they are very difficult to produce. Generally, in peacetime, quasi-F-class battleships are enough for use. War between third-level civilizations is not easy, and generally there will be signs of war for a long time.
period, enough for them to urgently arm a powerful F-class fleet.
In this way, Silver Moon and Guluo both retain powerful quasi-F-class fleets, which have absolute military superiority when facing other low-level civilizations. Once a war breaks out between third-level civilizations, or they face aggression from higher-level civilizations,
Only then will they produce F-class battleships on a large scale regardless of cost."
Zhang Shusheng couldn't help but analyze and explain. It was precisely after he saw this situation that he led the empire to develop and produce Tianlong battleships and Shenlong battleships. One is for daily use and can be sold to foreign military after weakening, and the other is the core battleship of the empire. In the future,
A weapon of war, it has a huge advantage even when facing the elite fleet of a third-level civilization.
"Then if this is the case, won't these wealthy people won't come back again?"
He Ning hoped that the more customers like the Silver Wing Business Alliance, the better. The empire and they each get what they need. Hearing what Zhang Shusheng said, she couldn't help but feel a little regretful.
"That's not necessarily true. Maybe they find that they can't develop and produce it for the time being, and they may continue to buy it."
Zhang Shusheng believes that the Silver Wings Business Alliance may no longer be seen in the next two or three biddings. Only after hitting a wall will they continue to purchase.
With their financial resources, even at a sky-high price of 30 million cosmic coins, they can easily arm several fleet-sized Tianlong fleets.[
The Orion Alliance euphemistically stated that it hopes to obtain more battleships privately, but Zhang Shusheng has no way to do it. Since the empire has decided to take the road of bidding sales, it cannot give up halfway. Could it be that some people are allowed to bid, while other countries hold low prices?
What is the price to purchase Tianlong battleship?
Such an outcome would only undermine the empire's commercial reputation.
"The only way to solve the problem is to increase the production of Tianlong battleships. Once the production increases, there will be less sky-high bidding of 30 million cosmic coins, and it will return to normal."
Zhang Shusheng explained.
"Brother-in-law, although our 300 Tianlong battleships were in high demand this time, only the Silver Wings family took the photos. However, the 1,000 battleship main guns that my brother-in-law requested to join fetched a sky-high price."
He An originally thought that the battleship was the protagonist, but he didn't expect that even the battleship's main gun was very good.
Of the 1,000 main guns used by the Tianlong battleships, 500 of them were auctioned off by the Silver Wings Business Alliance, and each one actually fetched a high price of 5 million cosmic coins.
In other words, the 500 main guns taken away by the Silver Wingers alone amounted to 2.5 billion cosmic coins.
The entire 1,000 battleship main guns were auctioned for a total of 4 billion cosmic coins. Although it is much less than the one-time price of 9 billion cosmic coins for the Tianlong battleship, it is already very impressive.
"Your Majesty, we sold 1,000 main guns, didn't we just help them increase the firepower of their warships?"
He Ning asked strangely.
Zhang Shusheng smiled: "Yes, we still have the saying of spears and shields in ancient times. If a country's battleships' shields are not thick enough and they only have a batch of sharp spears, then there is no other way than causing each other to lose more battleships.
Substantively improve combat effectiveness.
A Tianlong battleship is equipped with 2 main guns, but the same 1,000 main guns installed on other battleships may be able to have a one-time powerful firepower, but the overall combat power is far less than that of the Tianlong battleship, which will cause more losses to each other.
Many battleships.
In this way, both sides will fall into a vicious cycle and excessively pursue powerful main guns because they have no way to buy better warships."
"It turns out that the more main guns they buy. The more warships they modify, the harder they fight and the more they lose. The impact of our selling these main guns on us in the future is very small, but it can play a long-term role.
Big fish.”
He Ning understood. This was to teach them how to fish, then let them catch all the fish in the river, and then come back to buy the empire's fish.
Although the main gun of the battleship is indeed the main gun used in the foreign trade version of the Tianlong battleship, the production cost is actually not too high. It is about 1 million universe coins. In this way, even if it is not bought at a high price like the Silver Wing Alliance,
The empire can also make profits many times over.
With a profit of several hundred percent, there is nothing a businessman would not dare to do. Not to mention arms trading, Zhang Shusheng is naturally willing to sell it.
"Your Majesty, if this is the case, if one day we go to war with them, these main guns will have been exhausted. Even if there are some stocks and conflicts, they will not be our opponents."
He An smiled.
Zhang Shusheng: "This is exactly the reason. Instead of leaving everything unsold, it is better to sell it to them in a targeted manner and help them fight to the death.
The battleship main gun will be one of our flagship products next. However, we cannot sell the energy shield, battleship hull technology, and energy engine separately."
The three of them continued chatting, and the topic also came to how the money would be spent. He An was actually very cautious and would not ask questions that he shouldn't ask, but when He Ning asked, Zhang Shusheng treated it like a commonplace conversation and listened.
"In addition to the majority of this warship fund being used to offset costs and build the second battleship factory, as well as improve the empire's arms production system, 2 billion cosmic coins will also be allocated to improve the people's livelihood in the empire and improve social living standards."
Zhang Shusheng's idea is very simple: the country must benefit the people to a certain extent.
You may not think much about the problems of rich countries and poor people at first, but gradually big problems will arise.
When the country's vested interest class becomes larger and larger, even if the country has gained huge profits as a collective, these benefits can never be distributed to civilians, or even turned into welfare for everyone to enjoy.
Difficult to do.
Rather than letting huge wealth become the enjoyment of vested interests in the future, it is better to take measures to return wealth to the people and improve people's living standards every time they obtain huge benefits.
What can 2 billion cosmic coins be used for?
Zhang Shusheng has not asked Zhou Guolai to do the actual calculation, but Zhang Bing has calculated that if all 2 billion of the universe coins are spent on the Chinese people, it can actually improve the living standards.
Of course, when these 2 billion are spent, it’s not simply about how much money everyone gets. Although the Cosmic Coin is very valuable, if it is spent like this, the money will be diluted.
"Part of these 2 billion cosmic coins will be used to improve the critical illness medical insurance project. The empire will further improve the medical insurance system in the form of free treatment and free medicines.
In addition, the empire will also implement a financial subsidy system. Those whose income is below a certain level will receive a considerable financial subsidy on a monthly basis.
Finally, the remaining money will be used for product subsidies. The empire will provide subsidies ranging from 30% to 70% for the purchase of products with a technological content evaluation of grade 1 or above.
These 2 billion universe coins may not be enough to sustain these things in the long term, but we will continue to invest in the future.”
In Zhang Shusheng's view, it would be a waste if 2 billion cosmic coins were used to distribute it directly to the whole people, but it would be very useful if medical insurance could be improved and serious illnesses could be treated completely free of charge.
In addition, the subsistence allowance subsidy, in addition to subsidizing the elderly, weak, sick and disabled, is mainly to effectively subsidize those low-income groups. Of course, it does not mean that people stay at home and do not work, and the empire will pay you even if you are too lazy. It means that if you do not belong to
The four categories of old, weak, sick and disabled people must participate in work as a prerequisite before they can receive income subsidies.
As for the final subsidy for high-tech products, it is somewhat similar to the home appliances sent to the countryside experienced by Zhang Shusheng in his previous life. It is mainly to solve the current situation where high-tech products are purchased by the people, and ordinary high-tech products are also considered a bit expensive by ordinary people.
For products with a technological content rating of above, the lower the rating and the higher the public demand, the greater the empire's subsidies. Subsidy with the value of the universe currency is a manifestation of using small money to do big things.
You must know that within the empire, the exchange rate between the RMB and the cosmic currency is too conducive for the empire to launch such subsidies.
"For example, home robots are quasi-technical products. Before subsidies, many families may not buy them to save money, but once subsidies are provided and the price drops by 50% or even up to 70%, most normal families will be able to afford them.
As for companies that produce robots, such as Shusheng Company, their deficit in this area may only be tens of billions of yuan. We subsidize it with hundreds of millions of universe coins, and the manufacturers can actually take advantage.
Similar products, in addition to home robots, small optical brains for home use, medium-sized smart brains for home use, small home flying cars, middle-income personal spaceships, and even mid-level genetic drugs, etc., will all be in the subsidy catalog.
.
This is actually a huge national special fund, dedicated to improving and improving people's living standards. No matter how much profiteering arms are sold, a sum of money will be withdrawn in proportion, so that the empire can afford it and the people can enjoy it."
Zhang Shusheng made an estimate. If these 2 billion cosmic coins are spent, although it is absolutely impossible to solve the problem once and for all, it will be very easy to solve the funding problem for two or three years. In the next stage, another hugely profitable arms business will be made, and then
If a part of the subsidy is put into this special national fund, a good cycle of returning wealth to the people will emerge.
