China imports iron ore for $100. Importer buys $ for RMB680 in China CB.

Say BRL is 2.5/$.

Vale exchanges those $100 in Brazil CB for BRL250

Us print more dollars. Drive up BRL, say BRL to 2.0/$.

Next month we repeat the operation again.

Vale is getting less BRL but China is getting same amount of iron ore.

Vale must increasing the price of its Iron ore to get more $ to receive its BRL250.

Look carefully, there are more $ in circulation but the amount of goods are still the same.
