Chapter 232 Currency Issuance and Economic Control

Gu Yonghua took the bracelet and opened the Phoenix City trading system according to Lin Xiyue's instructions.

Lin Xiyue said softly, "To show our sincerity, we have implanted a portable storage space in the communication bracelets of the members of the business alliance for free."

After saying that, Lin Xiyue began to demonstrate to Gu Yonghua how to use the storage card to collect items.

Gu Yonghua followed Lin Xiyue's instructions and put a pen on the negotiation table into the storage card, then took it out again, having a lot of fun.

Only now did he realize that his previous guess was true.

Phoenix City really has a lot of storage devices.

"Can I buy this storage device now?"

Lin Xiyue shook her head and said, "I'm sorry, Phoenix City has no plans to sell storage devices to the public at the moment."

Gu Yonghua's eyes lit up. "No plans yet. Does that mean it might be sold to others in the future?"

"If you are ready to sell, please inform me as soon as possible."

"As long as there is something to sell, the price and everything else are negotiable."

Su Li knocked on the table and said, "Okay, now we are not discussing the issue of storage devices."

Gu Yonghua hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and said, "I agree to join the Phoenix City Business Alliance."

Although Gu Yonghua also knew that joining the Phoenix City Business Alliance was equivalent to letting Phoenix City suck his blood.

But he was in no position to refuse.

Because now it is he who needs the help of Phoenix, not Phoenix that needs the help of him.

Phoenix City’s attitude is very clear. If you want to establish a trade relationship with them, you must follow their rules.

After figuring this out, Gu Yonghua stopped worrying about it and immediately took out his satellite phone to contact the personnel stationed at the base and send the crystal core to Phoenix City first.

Su Li looked at Gu Yonghua with a half-smile and said jokingly, "Oh? So straightforward?"

"Aren't you afraid that we will cheat you?"

Gu Yonghua showed a flattering smile, "Sister Li Zi, what are you talking about? I still trust your character."

"Besides, what is our relationship? You can cheat anyone but me."

Lin Lu rolled her eyes at Gu Yonghua, hugged Su Li's arm with her left hand, and waved her little fist at Gu Yonghua with her right hand in a demonstrative manner.

Seeing this, Gu Yonghua couldn't help but smile a smile that was uglier than crying.

There is no way, people under the eaves have to lower their heads.

Who knew this little girl was so vindictive?

What if she whispers something in Su Li's ear...

Although Gu Yonghua was very sure that Su Li would not really cheat him, after all, the friendship they had grown up together was there.

But who knows if Su Li will use the excuse of sparring to beat him up?

By then, there will be no room for reason.

After all, although Chen Mengmeng has a pretty good relationship with him, she obviously has a better relationship with Su Li.

If something really happens, let alone helping him, there might even be a double beating between the women.

So, it is better to keep a low profile when you are under someone's roof...

After confirming that the base would join the Phoenix City Business Alliance, Lin Xiyue continued to communicate with Gu Yonghua on the details.

First of all, Phoenix’s points currency does not only run in members’ purchasing accounts.

If Phoenix City purchases supplies from a member unit, Phoenix City will only pay with points, and the member unit may not refuse for any reason.

In addition, Phoenix City has the right to enter the member unit base and open Phoenix City’s points redemption points.

Member units must provide security for points redemption points in Phoenix.

This means that Phoenix City’s points are not only used officially by the Chamber of Commerce members, but will also circulate among the survivors in the base.

Gu Yonghua only thought about this request for a moment and agreed readily.

Because there are currently not enough supplies in his base for the survivors to purchase.

Moreover, if survivors want to buy things in Phoenix, they must first obtain points.

The only way to obtain Phoenix points is to complete the tasks issued by Phoenix.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the survivors work for Phoenix City, and then use the points issued by Phoenix City to purchase various supplies provided by Phoenix City.

This is actually blatant economic control.

But Gu Yonghua also had no room for refusal.

Because he couldn't provide jobs for the survivors of the base, he couldn't afford to support so many people.

Although Phoenix's approach will cause the base to lose its autonomy to a certain extent.

But this can also give a large number of survivors a chance to survive.

If Phoenix's approach is rejected, perhaps in a few months the base will be filled with starving people and people will eat each other's own children.

Gu Yonghua is not a very ambitious person. He has never thought about splitting the land and becoming king.

His only wish is to allow human civilization to continue successfully.

Since Phoenix is ​​willing to take on this responsibility, he is naturally happy to see it happen.

In fact, the most powerful part of Phoenix City's move is that they only play economic control, but the basic weapons of each base are still retained.

In this way, members of the Phoenix Business Alliance will not be too resistant to Phoenix's approach.

Because even if they accept Phoenix's economic control, they still have the power to protect themselves.

If Phoenix suddenly turns against them, they can still do what they want as before.

Even without the burden of survivors, they can develop faster.

From Phoenix's perspective, the more widely the points currency is issued, the more unbreakable Phoenix's position will be.

Everyone who uses Phoenix points currency will be forced to be tied to the Phoenix chariot.

And the more points a person holds, the more they will support Phoenix.

Because once Phoenix collapses, the points they have will lose their redemption units and will become a pile of useless data.

Of course, Phoenix never thought that it could directly eliminate all enemies through economic control.

Anyone willing to join the Phoenix City Business Alliance will be included in Phoenix City’s blue list. Although they will not sign an offensive and defensive alliance, it is almost a non-aggression agreement.

As for those bases that refused to join the Phoenix Business Alliance, they should be attacked militarily.

It is impossible for Phoenix to give up developing its military equipment just because of economic control.

Both Su Li and Lin Xiyue knew it very well.

Economic hegemony is based on military hegemony.

The so-called economic control is itself just a policy of appeasement.

Since Phoenix cannot eliminate all enemies in the short term.

It would be better to use economic and trade means to divide and disintegrate them, and bring some bases with no ambitions onto Phoenix’s ship.

There is also the most crucial point.

That is, Phoenix City is the organizing unit of the Chamber of Commerce. Doesn't it up to them to decide who can join and who cannot?
