Chapter 1030 This is an order, not a request!

  When the train Liu Qingshan took arrived at Gongqingcheng, it was already the next morning.

  Out of the messy train station, Gromov, a follower, followed him all the time, babbling:

   "Liu, I really want to invite you to my house as a guest, but you know, now that the economy is in recession, I don't even have the money to buy food to entertain you."

  Liu Qingshan smiled and shook hands with him: "It's okay, friend, I believe everything will be fine."

  Gromov nodded vigorously: "Yes, just like Pushkin's poems, everything is fleeting, and everything will pass!"

   After seeing off Gromov, Liu Qingshan knew that people like Gromov represented the status quo of this country.

  The wealth they accumulated in the past has evaporated in an instant, and the original security system has been completely destroyed, and everything has to start from scratch.

  When he came to Gongqingcheng, Liu Qingshan's feelings became more obvious. After all, Bubu City can be regarded as a treaty port, and the basic order and supplies are still stable.

  But here is different, it looks very chaotic, a group of parade crowd, yelling and walking past Liu Qingshan and the others.

  The angry faces and waving fists showed that they had almost reached the limit of what they could bear.

  The police lifted a frozen body from the street and stuffed it into a car.

  There was a loud crash from the shop window not far away, and someone was holding the goods and running wildly...

   "It's really messy." Li Tieniu muttered,

  Compared with Huaxia, the gap is a bit big.

   "Boss!" Accompanied by a familiar call, Jiang Shuichang led a group of people and ran towards Liu Qingshan.

  Yesterday when Liu Qingshan set off, he had already called, and they were here to pick up the station.

   "Old Jiang!" Li Tieniu opened his arms to meet him, and Jiang Shuichang was swung around a few times by him.

  Others avoided Li Tieniu one after another, came to Liu Qingshan, and greeted them excitedly and joyfully.

  For them in a foreign country, it is very cordial to see their compatriots, let alone their boss Liu Qingshan.

  Liu Qingshan patted their shoulders one by one: "Everyone has worked hard."

   Here, people don’t know the place of life well, and the past two years have been particularly chaotic and dangerous, so it’s really not easy for these people.

   "Fortunately, it's covered by the Black Bear Gang." Lao Jiang finally broke free from Li Tieniu's embrace.

  Don't say they are foreigners, even the locals can't afford to provoke those underground forces.

  As soon as the business is opened, someone will come to collect protection fees; there are even more powerful ones, who will directly steal your business.

   After chatting for a few words, everyone got into the car and drove to the location of Katyusha's firm.

   Komsomolsk is an industrial city built by the Soviet Union. There are aircraft factories here, such as the Su-27 series, which are all produced here.

   There are also shipyards, steel mills, machinery factories and other heavy industry manufacturing.

   And because of economic reasons, many factories are now in a state of shutdown.

  Liu Qingshan and the others looked all the way there, and their eyes were full of depression.

   After entering the most prosperous neighborhood in the city, the situation improved slightly.

  The convoy stopped in front of a Russian-style building, Liu Qingshan and the others got out of the car, and saw the sign of Katyusha Firm hanging on the building.

   This is a shopping mall. The first, second and second floors are all places for selling goods. Customers come in and out at the door, which seems to be quite prosperous.

  Nowadays, Maozi’s material supply is extremely tight, so places where materials can be traded are of course welcome.

  At the gate, Liu Qingshan saw the heroic Katyusha, leading a group of people, standing there to greet her.

   "Welcome, Liu!" Katyusha tied a refreshing ponytail and hugged Liu Qingshan.

  Liu Qingshan took a closer look and felt that Katyusha's body had changed a lot.

  She has shed her greenness and turned into a mature professional woman, her eyes have become sharper.

   Obviously during this period of time, she expanded her territory and experienced a lot of things, which sharpened her even more.

   "Yes, Katyusha, you will definitely become the most dazzling woman in this country in the future."

  Liu Qingshan is not flattering, Katyusha has the ability and connections, and now coupled with strong capital, she will surely rise.

  Katyusha shook her head, with a hint of pain hidden in her eyes: "Liu, if so, I would prefer to live a life of indifference in that remote town of Bukit."

  But soon, her eyes brightened again: "But since I have chosen the current path, I will also go on it!"

  Liu Qingshan nodded, he could understand Katyusha's feelings: "Katyusha, we will succeed."

   Entering the firm, the upper two floors are offices. Liu Qingshan noticed that there are two special windows for buying bonds.

   There were a few boys queuing up in front of the window, so Liu Qingshan went over to check.

   "Sir, would you like to exchange rubles or dollars?" The salesperson inside was a beautiful hairy girl, and asked the bearded uncle outside.

  The uncle scratched his matted hair: "How do you exchange it?"

   "For rubles, exchange them in equal amounts according to the amount on the bond; if it is US dollars, exchange 1 US dollar for 180 rubles according to today's exchange rate."

  The uncle shook his head. Although it was exchanged in equal amounts, the ruble had depreciated by more than a hundred times.

   Now that prices are soaring, the bonds in his hand, even if they are exchanged for money, can't buy much at all.

   "I went to Pan American Bank to have a look. I heard that they also accept bonds."

  The uncle still put the bond back in his pocket, turned around and wanted to leave.

  The guy in the queue at the back immediately squeezed forward happily:

   "Exchange it for me, I don't need money, I heard that your business can exchange things directly here, exchange it for vodka for me, exchange it all!"

  Can I exchange things?

  The uncle froze for a moment, and asked quickly.

  The waiter inside had a sweet smile on his face: "Sir, if you exchange goods, you can also enjoy a 10% discount in our firm."

  When the uncle heard this, he immediately hesitated again.

   The alcoholic behind waited impatiently: "Old guy, can you hurry up and forget about Pan American Bank, the exchange price there is even lower than here, and there is no discount yet."

   This sentence also became the last straw that overwhelmed that uncle. He took out his bond again: "It's changed!"

  Liu Qingshan looked at Katyusha, then nodded: "Good job."

   Katyusha smiled and shook her head: "It's a bit of a loss."

Liu Qingshan couldn't help but look serious: "No, Katyusha, that's right, tell the branches in each city to use commodities to exchange bonds as much as possible, 20% off, 30% off is fine, and we at Longteng will Make every effort to ensure the supply of goods.”

  Liu Qingshan directly set the regulations. With the rapid development of the domestic economy, the goods are becoming more and more abundant, so there is no need to worry about finding the source of goods as before.

   "But, but..." Katyusha looked at the group of people around her.

   This is Katyusha's advisory team, some from their own country, some from Xiao Li's family and the old bus, on the one hand for assistance, and also for the purpose of supervision.

  After all, such a large amount of money has been invested, and they have to install their own people.

  A bald man in his fifties held his glasses with his hand: "Mr. Mountain, why don't you accumulate more rubles, maybe soon, the ruble will appreciate again?"

   Liu Qingshan glanced at those people: "Let's go upstairs and talk."

   "Okay." Katyusha agreed, and then led the crowd to the meeting room on the top floor.

  It is much quieter here, and the stairs seem to temporarily isolate the world below.

   Everyone drank hot black tea and started chatting. Katyusha first introduced the members of the advisory group.

  Liu Qingshan couldn't remember so many names for a while, only remembered that the bald man just now was Marshall, a consultant from the United States.

   There is also a Maozi expert Ponev, who is also a staid old pedant.

  After drinking half a cup of tea, Liu Qingshan said: "Everyone, do you think that the ruble has bottomed out and will return to value soon?"

  The experts all nodded one after another. In fact, this is also a general consensus.

   After all, the ruble has depreciated a hundred times, which is really scary and makes people feel unreal.

  Liu Qingshan smiled and shook his head: "On the contrary, I think the ruble's depreciation has just begun."

  He took out a few magazines from his bag and put them on the table: "This is a paper I published a few months ago, you can take a look."

   This is a paper published in the "Economic Review", which is referred to as RFS and is a relatively authoritative economic journal.

   Now even Marshall didn't dare to neglect, and began to read carefully.

  After reading the whole article, I looked at the date of publication, which was last November.

   "Oh, it's hard to imagine, Mr. Mountain, your prediction is not bad at all. In just a few months, the ruble has depreciated a hundred times."

   "But you mentioned in the paper that the ruble will continue to depreciate, this, this..."

  Marshall seems to want to refute, but he can't find a reason. Now it seems that Liu Qingshan has predicted the beginning, so it proves that all the following arguments are also very likely to be correct.

  This paper was given to Professor Peter by Liu Qingshan when he was in Stockholm.

  Professor Peter used his relationship to publish it.

   At the beginning of its publication, it was ridiculed by a large number of economists.

  However, after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the development of things fully verified Liu Qingshan's prediction, so the faces of those economists were almost swollen.

  Ponev also finished reading the magazine, and he stared at Liu Qingshan with complicated eyes: "Mr. Mountain, is there any way to solve our domestic economic problems?"

  Liu Qingshan spread his hands, and Ponev's eyes dimmed immediately.

  Liu Qingshan then continued: "Katyusha, and gentlemen, so our future strategy is to exchange bonds with commodities as much as possible;"

   "And remember one thing, as long as the rubles in our hands can meet the daily turnover, it is absolutely not allowed to accumulate in large quantities!"

   At this time, it is extremely stupid to dare to accumulate a large amount of rubles in your hand.

   Liu Qingshan also emphasized his tone at the end: "Everyone, this is an order, not a request!"
