"Whoever takes the initiative in international trade controls the world!"

This sentence was said by Lynch a few years ago. At that time, Mr. Truman didn't feel much about it. He thought it might be just a statement... To help other contents improve their mood.

Only at this moment did he understand the true meaning of this sentence.

Looking at those enthusiastic diplomats, they can't wait to become brothers with the Federation immediately. This is the benefit of controlling the trade initiative.

If these small countries want to develop and order, they can't offend the federals. The more they rely on the orders of the Federation, the more they can't leave the control of the Federation in the future.

Gavra's diplomat sat aside, his face very ugly, but there was no way.

opposition?

He is likely to be invited out to let gavra leave the organization.

He could only sit silently and feel the uncomfortable feeling, as if there were thousands of insects crawling around and biting his body!

After talking about trade for some time, Mr. Truman talked about the monetary order.

"The silver currency of the silver alliance actually reminds us that the stability of major international circulating currencies, especially settlement currencies, is very important."

"A few days ago, the exchange rate between silver currency and their allied countries was still very high. They waved money and made big purchases in the world, but now..."

Mr Truman looked very sorry and shook his head. "Those things have become worthless!"

"Many countries, including us, were affected by this storm. Some businessmen in the Federation sold their goods to them in exchange for those..."

He chuckled twice, filled with deep contempt and disdain, "so we should stabilize the currency exchange rate system and take a stable currency as the main settlement currency within our organization."

After giving everyone a chance to think and buffer their thoughts, he continued, "I don't know if you have noticed. Compared with the rapid rise and fall of silver, the performance of gold is very stable."

"The silver alliance has many problematic policies, but one decision I think is more in line with the current international situation, that is, the benchmarking of currency and precious metals."

He sipped his mouth, picked up the cup and drank, "what we need is a stable monetary relationship, not a sharp rise or fall in the exchange rate because of a certain policy. It is feasible to use currency to link precious metals."

"But it can't be silver. We all know..." he smiled. "Silver is worthless!"

Diplomats also smiled.

"So we want to target gold..." Mr. Truman glanced at Lynch sitting at the end. Lynch originally mentioned the "Gold Alliance" plan.

It was too in line with the current development trend. After several discussions within the federal government, it was passed soon.

Those difficult senators in Congress did not raise any objection to the plan. This is a rare "full vote bill" with five abstentions and all the remaining votes in favor.

Abstention is to prove that the congressional vote is fair and... Free. It is a symbol. If someone does not have to abstain, it is really passed by a unanimous vote.

At this time, the real plan setter is like an ordinary participant, looking at the documents carefully, which makes Mr. Truman feel very funny.

"Federal sol will benchmark gold. We will announce the exchange rate and adjustment cycle later. During the cycle, anyone..." he stretched out a finger and stressed, "anyone can exchange equivalent gold from federal banks or even the Treasury!"

"Of course, we determine that the exchange rate price of federal sol is not entirely based on gold. We also refer to the weights of science, technology and social development. These details will be disclosed one by one in a larger meeting later."

At present, the credit monetary system has not been fully established, and the reason is that the status of various countries in the world fluctuates greatly.

There may be great changes in the exchange rate due to some changes anytime and anywhere, which makes the "credit" sometimes less "credit".

Under the background that the world pattern is still changing and catalyzing greater changes, it is difficult to build a credit currency system.

No one can believe that the Federation has always been in the forefront of the world. The era of gavra has ended. It is difficult to ensure that the era of Federation will not end in the future.

Therefore, under the background of this society and era, benchmarking and linking with valuable technology is the most appropriate choice.

No matter how the national status changes, at least the price of gold fluctuates little.

Even if it was affected so violently this time, it only fell by more than 20% and less than 30%, which was the result of crazy crackdown by some groups.

Before long, it will rise back, naturally.

This is different from silver. Once it falls, it has no chance to get up again.

In addition to these, the weighting of science and technology and output value is also a reasonable weighting reason. With the continuous improvement of a country's national strength, the purchasing power of money naturally needs to be improved. This is a very complex calculation process, which can be solved by those people in the federal government.

This meeting, it is not the final resolution meeting.

Mr Truman's words undoubtedly told these people that the federal sol would become the main settlement currency in the alliance.

Without looking at the face of diplomat gavra as if his family had died suddenly, other countries did not respond much to the proposal.

The birth of "union currency" has made them realize the value and benefits of this union currency.

Otherwise, they always have to face the various reverse effects of the exchange rate in the surplus and deficit. With a unified currency, the impact of the surplus and deficit will be reduced to a certain extent, whether it is import or export.

In addition, the trade matching within the alliance has greatly enhanced trade exchanges and reduced various losses caused by currency and currency.

At this time, a diplomat suddenly put forward an idea, "Mr. Truman, as a member state, can our currency exchange rate float with reference to the float of federal sol?"

Mr. Truman was stunned for a moment, then looked at Lynch, and Lynch looked up at Mr. Truman.

Their eyes met in the air. Then Lynch shook his head slightly. Mr. Truman immediately shook his head. "This problem is more troublesome. It involves a lot of content. We need to discuss it carefully before we can reach an accurate conclusion."

The diplomat who put forward the idea smiled politely, and there was no obvious disappointment.

The floating of exchange rate is actually a very market-oriented behavior. Money itself is a commodity, and we should abide by the rules of the free market.

Unless, like the Federal Reserve, they can provide sufficient gold reserves and floating parameters such as weighted national strength output value, it is generally not recommended that there is any reference to the exchange rate of any currency.

This will have a terrible impact on both sides. If someone has bad thoughts, the people on the other side will be unlucky first.

Of course, it may be more effective to hold a group at some time, but this is only suitable for the political needs of special times and special stages. It can't always be like this. It's an abnormal monetary relationship.

At this point, there was not much to say. After answering some detailed questions, the meeting was over.

It is just a simple mobilization. After each diplomat returns, he has to discuss with the political subject behind them before he can have a definite answer.

How to participate and the degree of participation need to be discussed in order to have results.

At more than twelve o'clock, Lynch and Mr. Truman came out of the building of the international affairs department together. After driving for a while, they stopped at an open restaurant in the city center.

A very ordinary restaurant.

Buppen has too many night workers. In addition to those girls, there are many normal clerks and so on.

They need to express their value in the office as soon as possible, so they will stay up late to work.

After midnight, people will feel hungry. They urgently need to eat.

These small restaurants are prepared for these people. Thanks to the public security environment in bupayne, it is better than other cities - it is only limited to the city center.

Places beyond the city center are still not recommended to leave the house after 8 p.m., but the city center is still very busy and relatively safe at night.

There are also some shops in operation.

Lynch stopped the car. He looked at the restaurant on the side of the road through the window and looked back at Mr. Truman. "Have some?"

Mr Truman hesitated. "I'm keeping fit. My wife says I'm getting fat..."

"There's barbecue. I see the menu."

Mr Truman was silent for a moment, then pushed the door open. "What are you waiting for?"

Lynch got out of the car with a smile.

The restaurant is run by a foreigner. It looks a little... Shabby and not up to grade. It should be an earlier immigrant.

"Two beef ribs, one pork sausage per person. What else would you like?" Lynch looked at Mr. Truman.

The latter looked at the menu and hesitated. "Let's have some more vegetables. We should keep a healthy eating habit."

"Then add a vegetable!" Lynch said and took out his wallet. "How much is it?"

"Eighteen dollars."

Lynch paid twenty dollars and said he didn't have to change it, so he found a side table.

Two Blackstone security employees walked into the store and into the back hall. They need to watch the cooking process without being tampered with, and pay attention not to enter the back door.

There are agents of the security committee staring at the door, which is extremely safe.

"Do you think Gavras can play tricks?" asked Mr Truman after they lit a cigarette.

Lynch was carrying a cigarette and putting a lighter in his pocket, which made his answer a little vague. "Of course, they won't watch us build the alliance."

"But we don't need to be too nervous. They won't have time and energy to pay attention to us soon."

Mr Truman was surprised. "What happened?"
