Because the empire's finances cannot implement the fiscal deficit policy, nor can it solve the government's financial problems by printing money. Therefore, Hu Huirong, the finance minister, was extremely miserable. When everyone looked at himself, he looked at each other with light and wanted to eat it. Generally I want to get more out of my expenses.
Hu Huirong was not a stingy person, but from the former finance director of the Qingquan technology era to the current finance minister of the empire, he actually won the "Grand Terrace" nickname.
No way, if Hu Huirong did not pick some doors, these big-handed grandpas would have lost their homes long ago, and one by one knew how to spend money.
Now, Hu Huirong has a headache. He managed to pick a little from here, where to cut it a little, so that the empire's annual financial savings can be a certain amount. This construction of the "Star" alone costs the empire's annual fiscal alone. Budget 1, and save one's thrift a year, carrying the reputation of a miser, only a few keels can be deducted in a year
"If you do n’t do this, the empire will go bankrupt. The construction of this spacecraft is not a year or two. And after the speed of construction is accelerated in the future, the capital demand will increase, and the government will definitely have no money at that time."
Hu Huirong tapped on the table with his fingers, calculated it carefully, and calculated silently. In this way, before the "Star" was built, the imperial government was bankrupt.
The "Star" is too huge, and its construction standards are very high. All the keels are built by Qijin. In addition, it needs to be equipped with various cutting-edge weapon systems, power systems, curved engines, etc., even if it is With the current strength of the empire, the government will be dragged to bankruptcy
The cabinet government held a cabinet meeting after the proposal of the Minister of Finance Hu Huirong to discuss the funding of the "Star". The government must find a way to raise funds for the "Star". The government does not have much budget, even if it is The cost of moving other spacecraft over is also quite different.
"According to current calculations, the Star has a budget of at least 100 trillion won, and our annual financial income is only 30 trillion won. Excluding various expenses, the annual savings are less than 1 trillion won "
"But the keel that has just been completed currently costs more than 300 billion Chinese dollars. According to the design, twelve such keels alone are required. This is a huge cost of 2.6 trillion Chinese dollars."
"The construction period of Xingchen is temporarily calculated over 10 years. The annual investment budget is 10 trillion won, which accounts for 13 of our fiscal revenue. Such a huge budget, no matter how to adjust it, or it is too far away, this is the case."
"Before the Star was built, our government went bankrupt first."
Hu Huirong told the basic situation to more than a dozen ministers in the cabinet, and then he said nothing. He usually knew how to spend money one by one. Now it's time to give you a headache and know the difficulties of being in charge.
"Everyone says what they think"
Cabinet Prime Minister Liao Bin said to the Cabinet Minister present that the first Cabinet Prime Minister Cai Jian had retired because of his term of office, and went home to pursue his dream. Liao Bin, Sales Director of Qingquan Technology, won the election. Became the new Prime Minister
The first Cabinet Prime Minister was basically the older members of the senior management of the Qingquan era. They are relatively experienced and mature, and they can make the empire pass through the beginning of the period smoothly. After they are re-elected, their term has expired. , The government began to make large-scale replacements, and the young and powerful and passionate generation took over.
Liao Bin originally served as Minister of Foreign Affairs in the first cabinet, and has considerable experience. In addition, he is an old man from the era of Qingquan technology, and it is normal for the election to win.
"There is really no good way. We cannot learn from countries on the planet to print money wildly. Other expenses cannot be reduced. I ca n’t think of any good way for a while."
Imperial Secretary of State and Deputy Prime Minister Marley shook his head. He was very clear about the current government expenditures. Many of them were crushed to death by Hu Huirong. There was no extra finance at all.
"Implementing a constant-value energy currency is the foundation of our nation. We must not print money to solve the government's economic problems. Don't think about it."
Liao Bin also nodded. When the head of government is actually not good, especially leading a large country like the Empire, a country with a new system, many times need to cross the river by feeling the stones and explore the management experience of the Empire. But there is something that everyone understands, those principles are never to be shaken
For example, using technology as the foundation of the country to implement a constant value energy monetary policy
"I think, our government doesn't have much money, but citizens of our empire still have a lot of money. Can we issue government bonds to raise funds?"
The Minister of Justice Chen Junwei is the oldest in this cabinet. Originally, he should have retired and enjoyed his life as early as Cai Jian and others. However, due to various considerations, Liao Bin felt that he still needed one Experienced ministers come to participate in this cabinet, so Chen Junwei will continue to serve as Minister of Justice
The Prime Minister of the Cabinet is elected by the citizens of the Empire, but the other Ministers of the Cabinet are formed by the Prime Minister, so there is no problem in serving continuously.
"Issuance of national debt requires collateral. Countries on earth are generally guaranteed by national credit, and national debt also needs to pay interest. The interest of 100 trillion won of national debt alone is a huge figure. , Our government's annual budget does not have much balance, even the interest is not enough to pay back "
"The nations on the planet and the large-scale issue of national debt are because they can print money to taste and pay back, but we can't print money to taste these."
"Our annual economic growth and fiscal revenue growth are many, but everyone also knows that our empire implements a policy of encouraging fertility and is responsible for all support for all infants and young children. We also have a very large new population each year. Expenditure is also growing fast "
When hearing this, the Minister of Finance Hu Huirong finally spoke again, solemnly reminding others that the national debt is mortgaged to the national credit, and at the same time, the principal and interest must be paid.
The empire's economic development is fast and its fiscal revenue is growing fast, but the growth of various empire expenditures is also terrifying, not much savings, and interest is not enough.
"If the issue of national debt is not enough, I really can't think of any good way. The government has to increase its income. It can't be increasing taxes, discovering national debt, or printing money."
Chen Junwei smiled slightly, and was not negated by Hu Huirong. He was also very clear that what Hu Huirong said was true. If the government issues government bonds, it will definitely bear a huge burden in the future and the finances must be very tight.
"I think we can consider selling the future gains of the Star to the Imperial investors in advance. During the great voyage period, Britain had such a precedent."
The speaker is Mo Qingming, the Minister of Science and Technology of the Empire. The position of the Minister of Science and Technology is relatively important. One is a highly regarded scientist at the Imperial Academy of Sciences and Science. Science and technology are the foundation of the country. The influence of scientists is throughout the Empire.
Mo Qingming said that selling the future proceeds in advance was the earliest time on earth when Britain was in the Great Navigation Period. At that time, Britain was going to use force against India, but the government had no money because it had just fought the Spanish. Obtained the status of maritime supremacy.
However, the timing of the use of force against India was once in a lifetime, and India was in a fragmented state at the time, which was very suitable for robbery.
On the one hand, the government has no money, and on the other hand, it is an opportunity. At that time, the British government came up with a way to sell in advance the various gains that can be obtained after the occupation of India to domestic capitalists, investors, and ordinary citizens.
Because Britain just defeated the incomparable Spaniards and replaced Spain as the new maritime supremacy. At that time, the entire British people were full of confidence in the British war against India.
The war puppets issued were quickly snapped up by the British at the time. The original budget of the British government was quickly raised and many British people were still begging the government to continue to issue war puppets, so the British government occupied the South Asian continent. All other countries' military expenditures have also been raised.
And things are exactly as the British estimated. With the world's leading large ship artillery at that time, the British army did not have a one-piece enemy outside Europe. It swallowed the entire India very smoothly and changed India. Became the most dazzling gem in the British Queen's crown.
And those who bought war puppets all made a fortune. The value of war puppets alone has increased by hundreds of times, not to mention that those big capitalists were able to carry out various colonial plunders directly from India. The rapid accumulation of capital has accumulated and laid the foundation for the subsequent industrial revolution.
"诶 You mean to issue a war? Do we do this? We are very far away from those alien planets, and citizens of the empire may not buy our bills."
The Minister of General Affairs and Deputy Prime Minister Marley shook his head, which is like pointing at the stars in the sky and telling the citizens of the empire that our government will occupy this planet in the future. You will now pay a sum of money to fund the government to build a spaceship. In the future, the empire will Divide your continent on this planet
ps: The second chapter is delivered. Please hurry up and buy me the planetary puppet. In the future, one person, one planet, hehe, it will be left to future generations to make various requests in the garden. To be continued.
