The Agricultural Trade Market has been contracted by the World Seafood Dealer, which is required to pay a substantial interest every month. The entire Agricultural Trade Market is valued at 1.5 billion New Hope Coins.
This is the Currency that the Hope Group plans to issue in the future.
Moreover, this market will serve as a pilot project, marking the true beginning of operations. The Hope Group has now started reprinting the Currency. Unlike the previous version, Zheng Yifan ultimately hopes to use the value of Huaxia Nation's Currency as a benchmark, meaning that the future Currency will be equivalent in value to that of Huaxia Nation.
This new Currency has not yet circulated and has not been officially printed, as it requires at least over a month for finalization. Even the Currency of the Apocalyptic World will eventually need to be replaced because it is time for an update. However, there will be a clear exchange rate to ensure that the old Currency can be exchanged equivalently.
Due to the slow printing process in the Apocalyptic World, the Currency circulating in the Hope Gathering Place has formed a significant commercial circle, but it also has considerable limitations. The main reason is that when it was printed back then, the technological capabilities were weak, severely restricting the issuance of Currency. They were still using Post-Apocalypse technology, which was preferable at that time.
However, the biggest problem lies in the high possibility of technology leaks from before. They were only using domestic technology; however, there are many mints in the Apocalyptic World that could easily produce Currency identical to that of the Apocalyptic World.
The result would be an instantaneous collapse of their entire Currency System.
Zheng Yifan does not want such a situation to occur and must find a new solution.
Fortunately, a few weeks ago, a laboratory in the Apocalyptic World introduced a new Currency printing plan using materials he had never considered before.
All materials will be made from a special type of plastic that can be washed. It contains multiple anti-counterfeiting measures that utilize everyone's intellect to its fullest.
The final printing will take place in the real world because it offers conveniences not available in the Apocalyptic World. Here, there will be sufficient Electricity to implement all plans.
Within the boundaries of the Apocalyptic World lies what will become the future stronghold of Hope Gathering Place. All areas within this boundary will serve as living spaces, with a population expected to rapidly exceed tens of millions, making it unlikely to construct many factories there.
In contrast, this real world is defined by Zheng Yifan as a factory for future developments. The production of this plastic has clear indicators in the Apocalyptic World, with pollution levels even lower than those of an excessively polluting tractor.
As Zheng Yifan's first trial executive order and pilot bidding begin, many business-minded individuals are starting to take action.
This is a trial for the entire Andong Region and will eventually extend nationwide.
Most importantly, the Hope Group needs this goal to attract more Survivors to recognize the Hope Group.
They operate as a collective without any real Attractiveness. They need to turn all Survivors into a community of shared interests, allowing everyone to benefit from the total revenue and gain a portion of the profits. This way, they will fiercely defend their own assets.
Such citizens are the safest because they have transitioned from being proletarians to becoming property owners, thus becoming bound by their own assets.
There's an old saying: "Barefoot people are not afraid of those in shoes." Zheng Yifan and his team aim to transform those barefoot individuals into shod ones.
This way, no one will take excessive risks, as it wouldn't be worth it. The profits are too low; it's better to survive within the framework of Zheng Yifan's Hope Group.
To implement this strategy, he has already begun rolling out a series of plans. All streets in the New District are gradually starting to undergo bidding processes, with each storefront being planned. This is organized by the Think Tank team, ensuring that stores in each block do not conflict too much and that profits remain sufficient to avoid failure.
After all, many citizens are blind to business practices that are often ridiculed by foreigners.
For instance, when a new store opens for the first time in an area, it may turn a profit initially, leading to countless imitation stores that closely mimic the original.
Then, while the second store might also be profitable, by the time you reach the third store, it will only break even. The subsequent imitators will all face failure, and ironically, the original store's profits will decline rapidly as well.
In this country, there are far too many followers, and industries are too singular; they have never introduced parallel industries to invigorate the market.
This is also a reflection of national conditions. Zheng Yifan has no choice but to rely on the Think Tank for ideas.
Their approach is quite simple: since everything is now clear-cut, let's plan. The entire city will be planned out—designated areas, industries, and operational scopes for Stores.
In other words, each planned store should only operate within its designated range. If they wish to change their business model later on, it will require at least three years before they can do so.
Thus, the initial industries will be balanced; any subsequent additions or reductions of Stores due to market demand will follow market principles and have nothing to do with their plans.
This ensured the interests of the merchants in the early stages.
Clearly, everyone was indifferent now because they had long dreamed of owning a Store, and now they could acquire one through loans, which was quite nice.
However, they gradually realized that the market couldn't function because they had no way to obtain Currency. There was nowhere to get Currency.
Money, this concept had not yet been promoted; the previous Currency had become obsolete, turning into worthless paper. Now, they could only resort to Barter. Even after securing a Store, they found themselves unable to operate it.
Because there were no goods, and even less capital.
The Think Tank had long devised a solution for these issues. Since there were no goods, they would create them!
A large influx of seeds, ducks, chicks, and calves entered the city of Anton, gradually taking root in the rural areas. The entire countryside began transforming into breeding bases, becoming large-scale farming operations. The labor used would be compensated, and urban planning required manpower as well, which would also be rewarded.
Repair work in many places would also provide compensation.
Women engaged in handicrafts entered various workshops to start working.
The micro-factories were established by the Hope Group, aimed at providing them with jobs first. The work for men was simpler; their tasks involved physical labor, using their hands to create wealth. Regardless of whether they had been billionaires or beggars before, it was all the same now; they had to use their own hands to generate wealth and then obtain food. (To be continued...)
