Chapter 483: Chapter 393 Start Taking Action (Subscribe Please!) _1
Ge Dan bowed his head, and Sang Jin also stopped eating, his eyes filled with surprise.
They had originally thought that this would be easy to handle, and indeed it was. They had ’taken down’ the other party at a very small price. If the plan is successful in the future, they can easily incorporate Ling’s side into Myanmar.
But now the situation seems a little complicated. Dealing with a force that has a strong ’control desire’ is not like conspiring with a tiger, but the other party is not a sheep that can be manipulated at will. Simply relying on righteousness is not enough to bluff them.
However, this is a matter for the big shots, and has nothing to do with them.
After chatting with Wei Hao for a while, Ge Dan was even more shocked by the scale of the Myanmar Bank. Unexpectedly, Ling had almost all the controlling assets here under the flag of the Myanmar Bank Group. No wonder Ling was reluctant to let go of any share of the Myanmar Bank before. It turns out that this is not a simple bank, but it represents most of the assets here, and even represents the entire territory.
Thinking of this.
It seems that Ge Dan also understood why the people in the territory accepted the Asia Dollar so quickly. This is not just a credit currency, but also a huge amount of assets as issuance collateral. This is the basis.
After chatting for a while, Wei Hao got up and left. He still had to go to the bank to queue up for currency exchange, and then go to Wangsa to purchase and hoard goods.
These foreign currencies were transferred from Thailand. Because all of his own have been exchanged, he even borrowed some. Except for the first day, subsequent currency exchanges had to go to the bank outlets. The half-hour process was quite troublesome, but fortunately, there was a ’VIP room’, so he didn’t have to squeeze with the general business of others. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
The purpose of the ’VIP room’ is not to be special, but to improve efficiency.
He hurriedly finished breakfast.
Ge Dan and the others walked around in Xin’an Town, watching the workers sweating on the construction site, various merchants shouting one after another, the long queue at the door of the Myanmar Bank, and the fully armed security team passing by.
Ge Dan was profoundly shocked.
He did not know why Ling wanted the Asia Dollar to become one of Myanmar’s reserve currencies, but now he knew that it would definitely not be as Ling had previously said, nor would it be as Yangon thought, just for the sake of a name.
Definitely not.
There must be a bigger scheme.
It’s just that Ge Dan couldn’t figure it out for the time being.
If he had known all this earlier, he might have made Yangon think twice, but now it was too late. Before the decision, he could speak. Having agreed, it is now a shame to go back on one’s word, regardless of the other party’s scheme. But to stop this now is definitely not a good thing.
What’s more important.
Damn, he’s still on their territory. If Yangon went back on their word, what would he do?
Not to kill the envoy?
The country might, but local forces wouldn’t. Perhaps people wouldn’t die, but whether they could go back intact would be a question.
Ge Dan didn’t want to risk his life.
Moreover, he could only go back and report these situations, and he didn’t even dare to say this speculation to Yangon, for fear that it would be bad if Yangon really changed their mind. His work scope is in Thailand, which is so close. After returning, he doesn’t think he can hide for a lifetime. It’s better to have less trouble than more. To avoid being held accountable afterwards, what does it matter to appear a little ’stupid’ compared to life safety.
While Ge Dan and the others were walking around in Xin’an Town.
In Myanmar.
Yangon.
There was no press conference, no TV reports, no paper media reports.
The Myanmar side only announced such a policy on the homepage of the government’s official website, with a small subtitle of a presidential mansion resolution called ’Adding the Asia Dollar as one of Myanmar’s National Foreign Exchange Reserve Currencies’.
It was very crude.
At the same time, the presidential palace also issued this decision to various departments in Myanmar.
There was nothing else.
Therefore, this resolution did not cause any waves, and those Myanmar departments were just astonished for a moment and then let it go. Those who knew the inside story just thought it was a joke.
Yangon directly limited news reporting.
After all, they are only in preliminary cooperation with Ling now and have not established a trust basis. It’s just a verbal agreement, how can they publicize this matter? If Ling suddenly turned against them, it would be a ’slap in the face’. It would be really awkward, and the entire Myanmar government would lose face and become a laughing stock.
Therefore, Yangon chose to handle it low-key for now.
If they cooperate well in the future and confirm that Ling is a true ally, they will publicize it widely. That would also count as political achievement and progress, wouldn’t it?
Although the Myanmar government dealt with this matter modestly, other countries would not pretend not to see it, especially its neighboring countries. All intelligence officers reported this news back to their country for the first time, causing quite a stir in various intelligence departments.
For the first time.
The Asia Dollar entered the eyes of the international world.
For the first time, territory appeared on their radar.
However, after learning the ’details,’ they didn’t pay much attention to it. A regional currency, a small power making a ’minor move.’ It wasn’t worth the effort to investigate further. They merely instructed close monitoring and then the matter was dropped.
On the other side.
The Command Room.
After Mussolini issued the command.
Tang Qing received a system prompt informing him that the Asia Dollar had officially become a country’s reserve currency. From now on, he could use the Asia Dollar to purchase goods from the mall, as well as exchange and upgrade robots. However, the industrial equipment purchased with the Asia Dollar would not be counted in the Bank’s primary assets. Only the products produced by the equipment would be included in the statistics.
Tang Qing understood this limitation. It was designed to prevent him from spamming Asia Dollar issuances. If these could be counted in the bank’s primary assets, then the currency issued with the resources of the territories to purchase equipment for Myanmar Bank would become the bank’s primary assets. This could then be mortgaged for further issuance – a cycle that could be repeated indefinitely for a virtually unlimited amount of issuance.
Such a massive bug could not possibly exist. Therefore, in the system, all Asia Dollar expenditures would ’sink’ and not be counted in the statistics, but be included in the issuance and not truly disappear.
Additionally, Asia Dollar could not be used as the currency for open rights.
What are open rights?
For example, after being promoted to the next level, you need to open a new center. This cannot be done using the Asia Dollar; you must use RMB. Moreover, Asia Dollar could not be used for currency exchange and storage in the system’s personal account. As for when the system would permit it, the answer given was that the user did not have the right to inquire.
There were quite a few restrictions and the Asia Dollar could not be exchanged for dollars or RMB within the system, but at this point, Tang Qing did not care.
Being able to purchase goods from the mall and robots already solved a huge problem for him. From now on, whether it’s the Industrial Alliance Plan or actions in prison, he could use the Asia Dollar, meaning Tang Qing would have few places to spend other currencies.
The pressure on his finances instantly decreased considerably.
He still had over 20 billion Asia Dollars up his sleeve, which was the equivalent of over 20 billion RMB. He planned on investing the majority of these funds in infrastructure development. Power, communications, internet, water, energy and the likes all required money. Everything needed to be newly set up. He couldn’t continue relying on generators to produce electricity because it would hamper adequate lighting.
Afterwards, power plants must be set up. If it was not possible to build a large one, then small ones would do. Factories couldn’t be without electricity. Thankfully, coal mines existed within his territories. Otherwise, he would truly be at a loss.
Tang Qing really wanted to build a nuclear power station, but he could only think about it. Firstly, the construction period was too long. Secondly, he didn’t have enough funds at present. He could only start with fossil fuels for now. There was a lot to do and a lot of variety. Everything a city needed had to be invested in, which was a significant sum.
The remaining Asia Dollars would be reserved for providing personnel and equipment for various tasks.
Whether Tang Qing was exchanging for robots or equipment in the future, he decided not to use the ’precious’ RMB, because the industries under his name also needed a lot of investment.
"System, if Mussolini were to revoke the Asia Dollar’s reserve currency status, I wouldn’t be unable to buy things, right?" Tang Qing suddenly remembered this possibility. If this were the case, he would need to put in some ’effort’ in Yangon.
"Host, it will not affect you. As long as Mussolini acknowledges the existence of Asia Dollar, regardless of whether it is canceled in the future, it will not affect the circulation of Asia Dollar..." the system replied slowly.
Hearing this, Tang Qing breathed a sigh of relief. It would be best if it did not interfere.
As it turns out, recognition meant that this kind of currency had value. Or rather, it was a recognition of the exchange rate and confirmation of the currency value. Unlike before when Tang Qing determined the exchange rate himself, after a country recognizes it, the Asia Dollar can continue to issue currency unhindered.
So that’s how it works.
Tang Qing understood now.
"Tang Yi, it’s getting late. Start working." Tang Qing looked at the watch and commanded.
"Yes, commander," Tang Yi replied.
What Tang Qing referred to was the two powers near the border.
For land and population, in order to increase the issuance limit of the Asia Dollar, he had to expand. Once the two powers were taken care of, the size of the territories and the population would multiply. There was a chance he could make a significant profit, but even if he failed to amass a small fortune, the increase in the potential issuance of the Asia Dollar would be substantial.
Tang Qing was relying on this operation to complete the phase task of issuing Asia Dollars worth one trillion RMB.
The thought of it excited him.
If everything goes well.
By this evening.
The newly added Asia Dollar ’cash-out’ funds could increase several tens of billions of RMB.
Ha ha!
Tang Qing could only apologize to the two clan leaders. Who told you to wave about near me? Waving was just the beginning; they even set bad examples by deploying many soldiers at the border. If he didn’t fight them, who else could he fight?
