256 Won't Let Me Play? Then No One Gets to Play! (Flipping the Table)

"Nikita Brother, although you know a lot about war and the planet's environment, you don't know much about the economy."

Li Aoz briefly popularized the science. "In the Abyss civilization, Ammonium Gold, which has the most stable value, is uniformly used as currency. Ammonium Gold has divine power and contract protection, and can often be used as a prop for casting spells. Therefore, basically everyone generally holds Ammonium Gold as a foreign exchange currency reserve."

"For a civilization, the central bank's foreign exchange reserves are an important basis for balancing the entire civilization's interstellar expenditures, especially affecting the exchange rate of the national currency against Ammonium Gold, and maintaining confidence in the interstellar financial market. The more sufficient your foreign exchange reserves are, the more sufficient strength you will have to solve problems in the face of economic crises, wars, plagues, natural disasters, and [social] invasions."

"A simple common sense in economics is: currency depreciation is good for exports, and currency appreciation is good for imports. Generally speaking, civilizations like to lower their currency exchange rates below Ammonium Gold, so that they can ensure a low-price position in the interstellar market, and then kill them."

"Even for Narrative-level Civilization, although they are not short of money, they still have to reserve a large amount of Ammonium Gold to maintain the order of the interstellar market to ensure that their hegemony can continue."

"The most critical purpose of increasing foreign exchange reserves is to stabilize domestic capital, prevent the flight of the middle class, and prevent investors from transferring their businesses and workshops to other civilizations—especially the middle class."

"In Interstellar Civilization, the middle class is the best source of technical troops. They care about their children's education and career advancement, but they are also dependent on others and have no industry of their own, so they have no loyalty to the country's civilization."

In short.

Crystal Tower wants to keep someone.

"I made a little comparison on the Supreme Council official website in the past few years. The number of civilized immigrants abroad - basically the annual immigration growth rate has increased by 60%. At most, 64 million people gave up their Crystal Tower Civilization passports in one year. Most of them are young and middle-aged workers, and they are still between Epsilon (5) and Zeta-rank (6)..."

Li Aoz is very familiar with this routine.

Only by increasing foreign exchange holdings can capital confidence be guaranteed. Once companies and workshops decide to stay, the middle-class families who rely on the companies and workshops will inevitably stay here.

This is a very normal operation method. If the poor people at the bottom cannot rise to Zeta-rank (6), they have little ability to enter the battlefield, and it is not their turn to fill in the lines. They even desire to change the fate of their families by going to battle to kill the enemy.

It may not be long before the target of military conscription is the middle class.

The interstellar battlefield is different from ordinary people. The cost of soldiers is very high, but they will turn into Space Junk at every turn. It is difficult to recover them. If they are lower than Epsilon-rank (5), sending them will cause more deaths and damage morale, and there is no meaning.

Crystal Tower's problem is still the same as 5 years ago. The battlefield is severely short of people, but it is impossible to send mortals to the battlefield, and it is not enough to pay for the fuel cost of a round trip.

Unless the player is like this, a natural war madman who will not stop dying and can continue to grow in the battle.

"This time, we are unlucky, catching up with Crystal Tower to harvest the middle class, what can we say?"

Li Aoz After analyzing it, there is no solution.

"Those who compete with us for cost-effective planets must be very powerful. For Crystal Tower, the university bosses and workshop owners who need to be won over may be the Kappa-rank (10) mage behind them. We don't need to compete with such people for interests, just do our best."

"Hmm... not necessarily."

Nikita touched his chin and said meaningfully:

"Although I, an old guy, don't understand economics, I believe in my experience."

"Vanlenkov Autonomous State is an army with a country. We fought from the edge of the abyss to the supernova belt. There is a saying in our country: war itself is the best tourism."

"They may know which planets have advantages through official information, but their understanding of local conditions, especially the humanities and customs, is far inferior to my knowledge."

"I have read the catalog several times and can almost recall it. There are some things that they cannot possibly know better than me."

Nikita's eyes lit up and he extended an invitation to Li Aoz: "How about it, Lioz?"

"'No alien understands the thinking of the natives of those planets better than I do' - I dare say that there are not many people in this universe who have the confidence to say this."

"Would you like to pluck out a few pieces of wool from the hands of those academic masters?"

Li Aoz pondered.

After a moment, he spread his hands. "Why not?"

Li Aoz raised the corner of his mouth. "It is certainly satisfying to get something from your hard work - but food only tastes sweet when it is taken from other people's hands!"

Nikita and Li Aoz smiled knowingly and launched their plan.

Crystal Tower Civilization planned to take advantage of White Candle Star for the last time, which already made Li Aoz unhappy. Now it seems that he has revealed information about him as a buyer.

This makes Li Aoz even more dissatisfied.

It could even be said that he was a little annoyed.

Who is he?

Judging from Li Aoz's glorious record of defeating the invasion of [Machine World Society] and preserving the fragments of Eye of Discernment, it is no exaggeration to say that he is White Candle Star's savior.

For various reasons, as well as personal moral cultivation, Li Aoz did not publicize his name of "social remediation" everywhere. He was a typical industrialist who did not do so many things. Relying on his own strength and the vision of his previous life, he expanded Trustworthy Village and became the largest city in White Candle Star after Trivella City was destroyed.

With a population of 6 million, it brings together players, local residents, alien refugees, imported scientists and workers. Without Interstellar Civilization to take over, it can be said that Li Aoz is in charge of the life and death of this planet alone.

You know, there are still Tanas Race people on this planet who are the same as the Crystal Tower main ethnic group.

Li Aoz relied on his own strength and money to protect the lives of these 3 billion Tower Clan.

However, even so, Crystal Tower still wants to make another round of money and does not care about Li Aoz's previous achievements and deeds.

What is the concept of 3 billion people? Azure Planet If Outland is included, then there are 2.6 billion people.

Crystal Tower doesn't care about this, and he doesn't even care much about Li Aoz, a student and junior student who was cultivated by his own civilization.

Li Aoz is very unhappy.

first.

His money didn't come from strong winds. Originally, he planned to go on a march of hardship when he went to space, save money and improve his combat effectiveness. He worked hard for 100 years and fought all kinds of life and death before he could get a similar Ammonium Gold.

After making money through Spirit Maggot, Li Aoz did not immediately spend it on himself, otherwise he would have reached Kappa-rank (10) long ago.

On the contrary, he invested very prudently, protecting his property while also improving White Candle Star's basic base, so that the quality of life of people on this planet would not suddenly regress back to the era of starvation.

Although he values interests, Li Aoz is a principled businessman. He attaches great importance to the relationship with the people around him. This planet loves him so much, so Li Aoz will definitely not disappoint everyone's expectations.

Secondly, there is one more thing he cares about:

Crystal Tower Civilization abandoned three billion White Candle Star people for its own macro-strategy, using them as shields to cover the departure of the real Eye of Discernment fragments.

In the past five years, Li Aoz has taken action frequently. In order to deal with the fishy pirates who came over, he even wasted a lot of time in developing himself, so much so that he has not changed jobs twice now.

To be honest, Crystal Tower itself does not help Li Aoz much.

His student status was settled by Ms. Nastisha, who was born in White Candle Star. His friends and classmates are all locals in White Candle Star, and Help-Study Association's partners are also local low-level students.

Even after the government team evacuated, White Candle Star's former Ministry of Education chief Barkomon "recuperated" in outer orbit for several months specifically in the name of "recuperating from injuries."

Instead of going to a special atmospheric planet to recuperate, staying in the outer orbit of this planet is nominally healing, but in fact it is protecting the planet.

The benefits that Li Aoz felt were all given to him by the original White Candle Star, and had no relationship with Crystal Tower Civilization himself. Instead, Crystal Tower Civilization transferred all the people who were good to him away.

From the village chief to the mayor, Li Aoz, who is loved by this planet, has no intention of abandoning the simple and innocent people here.

Li Aoz has a bad habit: he doesn't like to owe favors.

Those who have helped me will definitely give them benefits, and sometimes even give them more in return, which makes me feel at ease.

Nomi, Qiu Ran, and Subway Brotherhood, all kind-hearted people, saved his life, and Li Aoz went back to help them destroy the old Frostplate.

Alexia helped Li Aoz a lot, and Li Aoz helped her descendants Grant Duchy become a republic.

Grant Duchy gave Li Aoz a lot of benefits, and Li Aoz didn't treat them badly either. He brought a large number of arms to Gulant and encouraged many players to go to Gulant to fight.

According to N4, until Dai Weilin was negotiating with Gulant, these weapons gave Dai Weilin a headache.

Isaac gave Li Aoz a body to recruit, and Li Aoz even gave him benefits, allowing him to spend his savings as he pleased.

Gretvor and Xiajian Jing helped him go into space, and Li Aoz did not treat them badly. Now these two people are Prime Minister and the president.

Therefore Li Aoz is even more regretful to those who did not benefit from it.

Such as Du Zexin, Lucite and Hobbes.

The fact that these people left without saying goodbye and disappeared to this day has made Li Aoz still brooding.

As for Ya Wen, Li Aoz knew that she was a citizen of [society], and even a member of the parliament, but they were still willing to tolerate her until she left. Star Abyss would be beheaded for his crime.

"From now on, I will never let Crystal Tower people take away any benefit from me."

Li Aoz sat upright, took a deep breath, and said with bright eyes, "Don't they like to pick up leaks?"

"In this case, we will leave them unable to pick up even a single omission."

"Spit out all the money you earned from me!"

If you don't make money for me, then don't make any money at all!
