[Mathias]

Money is power in the end.

 

[Ekaros]

Fiat currency. I am not sure that will play out perfectly...

 

[vermillion]

So after gas weapons and thermite bombs we're finally moving on to the real war crimes

 

[Velmoria]

Capitalism, HO!

 

[Tea_and_Cakes]

Now that you kicked them down with military power, choke last signs of life from em up with economics

 

[vannn]

Did she just invent mmt?

 

[nachzil]

Three chapters in the same day? Am i dreaming?

 

[ampnaman]

I can't believe Shizuku invented the first cat cafe~! 🐱

 

[anuanuanu]

how is Shizuko remembering all that nation-building knowledge?

I assume the two other people from future japan helps a bit.

 

[Banarok]

i thought the writer was a history buff, but maybe they just really liked the sengoku era generals and battles?

anyhow even really early japans currency was backed by rice, you can't eat gold but one coin (i don't remember the numeration) was worth one bag of rice, so she should really not have to explain anything.

Earlier chapters showed she's still got her smartphone, an encyclopedia app, and a manual phone charger

 

[Screenwatch]

Teeheehee. I’m just a nice farm girl… so here’s a way to first dominate war with literal poison, guns, explosions, and psychological warfare. Then to secure dominance over everything else by controlling the flow of money!

 

[outinthegardener]

Did she just invent mmt?

She 'invented' Fiat Currency, which is when money is no longer backed by gold or silver. You can no longer expect the government to exchange gold for your paper money, or to tie the value of paper money to an equivalence in gold.

This is not mmt, as mmt is one of many economic theories that have existed since fiat currency became widespread in the early 20th century. It's hard to say which economic theory Shizuku practices with the limited amount of information in the story. Going off her talk of using currency to control recessions or inflation, I'd say she's likely Keynesian.

So she has just completely given up on not changing history/ abusing her knowledge of the future then?

I think the writer likes cats

 

[Jarmaggedon]

She already crossed that line through her "inventions", governing policies & system; as well as winning a what's supposed to be a historic loss for Oda and significantly improved his image among the citizens.

 

[Seraphsent]

We crossed that line with those repeater rifles. A weapon of that caliber at the time of single shot muskets is insane. Especially in the hands of someone like Nobunaga.
Also fiat currency is a fantastic idea. It's basically impossible to do economic policy without it and contrary to popular belief, systems like the gold standard are anything but stable. I could post graphs about it, but frankly I just need to cite Bitcoin. The fact that entire industry basically spent its lifetime reinventing the wheel when it comes to currency will never stop being hilarious.

Sengoku cat cafe. Of course! Of course...
