Crossing the Other World to Build Gundam-Chapter 938: The five years since the establishment of the Tianyi Empire were seriously extravagant and wasteful
On January 5, 130, the first year of the universe, Long Fei was having a meeting with all the ministers.
Zeng Huanpeng, the new Minister of Finance, reported to Long Fei the empire's finances for this year.
"His Majesty Qi Zou, the GDP of our country's fiscal budget this year is about double that of last year, reaching 236 trillion Tianyi coins this year."
The ministers of all departments look at me and I look at you.
Everyone's eyes, expressions of excitement and anticipation, their allocation this year will be about double that of last year.
Zeng Huanpeng continued to report: "This year, our country will double its budget compared to last year. The main reason is that the domestic demand market in the country has increased. In addition, the consumption power of the people in this country is higher than last year, and many foreign companies have invested in the country. Lots of taxes."
"The country's import and export trades with many countries. Any product exported from the country to any country is settled in its own currency. In addition to the two major international currencies, some imports are also settled in its own currency, which leads to the appreciation of the country's currency. Quite a few, it’s already 1:1 with Earth Circle Coin.”
"The domestic products and currency are very strong. Many countries buy a large amount of domestic products. This not only allows the country to earn a lot of foreign exchange, but also does not show any inflation in the country's necessities, daily necessities, and food."
"Although the prices of these necessities will increase every year, the level of increase is very slow and less than 1%. On the contrary, the annual income of Chinese people has increased by 6%. Because of this relationship, the consumption capacity of the people It is getting higher and higher year by year, and even ordinary people can afford many expensive luxury items."
At this moment, Minister of Health Ethan raised his hand, and all the ministers looked at Ethan.
Long Fei glanced at Minister Yi Sen and nodded.
"It's good that our country's economy is booming, and the people's consumption ability has also improved a lot, but many people in this country have forgotten the suffering of the war in the past, and now they are completely extravagant and wasteful. I must say something about this year's health report. According to the statistics of the food wasted in our country last year, rice, which is what we call rice, wasted more than 1 million tons a year."
Ethan went on to say: "If vegetables and fruits were thrown into the garbage dump last year, more than 100 million tons were thrown into the garbage dump. The same is true for meat, or even more, almost 200 million tons were thrown into the garbage dump."
Ethan then popped up several video photos, in which a group of cats and dogs were very fat.
Long Fei asked very curiously: "Ethan, are these cats and dogs pets raised by the people in this country? Why are they so fat?"
"Your Majesty, these are not pets raised by the people of this country. If they were pets raised by the people of this country, most of them would be willing to control the weight of the pets and not let them eat too much. These are stray cats and dogs."
"..." The scene fell silent.
A minister asked curiously: "Did these stray cats and dogs encounter well-meaning people and feed them so fat?"
"No, the main reason is that these stray cats and dogs will go directly to some garbage dumps or the place where the garbage is dumped at the back of the restaurant. Some people will dump the leftovers for them to eat. Basically, these stray cats and dogs will go directly to the time. Order to eat there automatically."
Long Fei asked: "Do these people pour a lot of food every time?"
"The team sent by Wei Chen, after many investigations, many people, no matter whether they are eating at home or ordering food in restaurants outside, even if they are a family of three, they will never order more than five dishes."
"And if someone in the family celebrates a holiday, such as a birthday or a wedding anniversary, each table has at least 12 dishes for dinner. One table can originally seat eight people, but one table deliberately seats four people. To make a metaphor, if If you invite 64 people, you only need to call eight tables. There are 16 tables for opening seats, and there are 24 tables. One table can seat 4 or 2 people. This is not an isolated case. Basically, almost every family wastes it like this. Frugal families become rare animals."
"Also, schools in our country provide students with student meals, but most of the students in the school basically don't eat student meals. They eat all the food brought from home, but the food they bring at home is very large. A student who can’t finish eating throws it directly into the trash can. Although the teachers have responded to the parents, many parents don’t take it seriously, thinking that they have money anyway, and it’s nothing to do with the teachers, which makes the teachers very helpless.”
Long Fei looked at Lin Yunxin, Minister of Education.
Lin Yunxin said: "The Minister of Health is right."
"What about the student meals provided by the school?"
"Give it to those wild cats and dogs, and if you can't finish it, just throw it into the trash can."
Long Fei couldn't help but put his right hand on his forehead, he always felt like he was being bombarded by thunder. As an emperor himself, he didn't like extravagance and waste, and he didn't want to make those foreshadowing things. 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢
My own empress celebrates her birthday, and entertains all the ministers on the Qianqiu Festival. There are eight people sitting at a table, and each table only has six dishes, one soup and one dessert.
As a result, my own people go to extravagance and waste, and even have to lay the groundwork for unnecessary ostentation when celebrating an ordinary birthday.
"Minister Ethan, keep talking."
"The main reason is that the price of food in this country is too cheap. A catty of steak only costs 3 yuan, a whole organic chicken costs less than 5 yuan, and a whole bag of 10 kilograms of corn for vegetables and fruits costs less than 3 yuan. , 1 yuan for 8 apples, and 6 yuan for 10 kilograms of the best quality rice.”
"The price of food in this country will be so cheap. In addition to our country's advanced breeding technology, we have also developed artificial black soil with this advanced agricultural technology, which shortens the growth cycle of many grown vegetables and fruits, and makes production more efficient. There are many, and the quality is not inferior to the fruits and vegetables produced by natural black soil." 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎
"More importantly, machines have been used to replace labor in many aspects. Basically, only a few people can operate a bunch of machines. Except for some details, manual adjustments are required, which also leads to low costs and cheap food sales. .”
Then, Jack, the minister in charge of the customs and immigration department, also raised his hand at this time.
"speak."
"Recently, the smugglers and illegal workers captured by Weichen's department, as well as those **** workers who used tourist visas or smuggled in (the Tianyi Empire did not legalize the yellow industry), their purpose is to come to this country, in addition to making money , I just want to get my country’s ID card.”
"These caught people, no matter how many times they were caught and sent back to the country, they will try their best to sneak in. They just want to stay in our country, and the reason they come to our country is to envy our country's wealth and Extravagance and waste, they once said that they would rather be a dog of the Sky Wing Empire than return to their own country to be a man."
Long Fei suddenly remembered that he had also read some foreign media, which once reported on the extravagance and waste of the Tianyi Empire, and even said that the Tianyi Empire could pour out a vast ocean even if it wasted milk that it didn't drink.
After reading such reports, Long Fei felt that they were just exaggerated reports by foreign media.
Long Fei asked Jack: "Did these smugglers read the foreign media reports about our country's waste and luxury?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, and this is not only on Mars, but also in the field of the earth circle. I am also troubled by these things, sending tens of thousands of smugglers or **** workers every day, and this is not a neighbor. It’s nothing more than the country, it can be said that it is the entire earth circle and the common people in the colonial circle.”
"Especially those female **** workers, taking advantage of the fact that our country allows men to have multiple concubines, these women are willing to marry their clients as concubines. As long as they have not committed any major crimes for three years, they can get their national ID cards. For them For example, if they work in a relatively low-end job in their own country, their salary for one month is higher than that for three months in their own country, and even the purchase of food is cheaper than where they were originally. The country is still cheap."
Long Fei frowned. The country's population has skyrocketed recently, not only because of the increase in the birth rate, but also because of the many immigrants. The population of the Tianyi Empire has now exceeded 600 million.
Women make up more than 75% of immigrants.
And these immigrant women contributed 60% of the population's birth rate this year.
