Chapter 1242 Aftershocks (seeking a monthly ticket)
Everything that happened in the Nadel stock market was like a violent hurricane that swept across the continent in a very short period of time.
Just like a strong earthquake, it caused varying degrees of shaking throughout the world.
All news about the stock market is extremely eye-catching and extremely popular among the people.
Due to the greedy nature of capitalists - major newspapers and news media will naturally not let Huang Chengcheng's gold coins go unprofitable. In addition, the conscience and responsibilities of news practitioners.
They have published the news of Nai'an stock market as the front page headlines, and have continued to pay attention to it.
After all, this matter is extremely important and involves a multinational trust monopoly group company with the largest scale and assets in the world.
And the business of operating railway and train transportation is still unheard of.
For ordinary people, of course they don't know what a railway is. They just understand it from the name, that it is a road made of iron.
This is very surprising to those people with low educational level: building stone roads is expensive enough, but also building iron roads.
And it is said that this railway will be thousands of kilometers long once it is built.
Grandma, this is too rich~!
This bunch of losers~!
If you have money, eat something, drink something, buy a few fat wives...what's not good?
Isn't it stupid to throw good steel and good iron onto the road?
Out of boredom, someone briefly calculated the amount of steel required, and then he stuck out his tongue in shock and couldn't retract it for a long time.
Be good~!
How much money does this cost?
I'm afraid even the emperor may not have seen the steel used.
Therefore, every evening, everyone gathered in the tavern, drank low-quality alcohol, envied the huge wealth of the Flying Eagle Group, and cursed the chairman of the Flying Eagle Company for selling his land and only knowing that he wasted money.
However, later, some experts and call beasts jumped out to refute the rumors for the Flying Eagle Company. They told everyone: this railway and train are actually an amazing thing.
Convenient, fast and efficient cleaning...
What can change the fate of the continent, the future of mankind, the wheel of history... and so on.
In short, there are a lot of new terms that ordinary people don't understand at all, and they are confusing to everyone.
The only thing I can understand is that it is said that as long as there is a railway, it only takes more than ten days to go from Parthia in the east to Navia in the west - you know. Nowadays, people travel between the two places.
It takes eight months to travel by land, and half a year by sea.
This made the common people smack their tongues several times: Grandma, it only takes more than ten days to run a distance of more than half a year. If it is really so powerful, isn't it just like that magic?
Although in comparison, the war fortress that I have been talking about a few days ago seems to be a little more awesome.
However, the War Fortress is too expensive. It is exclusive to the top figures in the mainland, and it is difficult for ordinary people to touch it once in a lifetime. However, this railway is prepared for ordinary people, and anyone can get on it casually.
At that time, ordinary people like us can also experience the feeling of being a magician. We can get on the train and run from this place to that place with a whoosh sound. Then we can run from that place to this place again with a whoosh sound.
.
This is not bad.
The God of Light is above.
After living for so many years, I am rushing for a good time. I can also experience the feeling of magicians. If I really succeed in cultivating it by then, I must go and experience it...
Although there are mixed opinions on the railway on the mainland, it has successfully aroused people's curiosity.
Not to mention that there is a huge sum of money involved, nearly hundreds of millions of gold coins~!
As soon as the railway's shares were listed, it caused a huge sensation.
Those financial giants are making all the difference in the stock market. They control tens of millions of funds, making profits and losses of tens or even millions every time it goes up or down. Just thinking about it makes people excited.
Outside of Nai'an, anyone who can afford to read a newspaper is at least middle class.
Compared with the huge amount of money that makes waves in the stock market, their income of a few or a dozen gold coins a month is like a bright moon and a fluorescent light.
But this does not prevent them from thinking that they are the financial giants when they pick up the newspaper.
Nowadays, in any slightly larger city, in crowded places such as Plaza Taverns and Hotels, you can hear talk about the Naian Stock Exchange.
People lamented the intelligence and greed of Lord Lorraine and Chairman Leo for their money-making ideas of "having a son without an asshole". They also laughed at the unlucky people who lost their underwear in the stock market, especially those who lost their underwear in the stock market.
Idiots who use state taxes and public funds, or borrow money to raise funds and borrow loan sharks to speculate in stocks.
After being reported by major newspapers, Mr. De Rossi's name was finally heard throughout the mainland as he wished.
In the past, he expelled Lord Lorraine, the deputy commander-in-chief of the peacekeeping force, from the United Nations because of a conspiracy. He was somewhat famous among the upper echelons of various countries, but not many ordinary people knew about him.
After all, the Kingdom of Leiria is an ordinary medium-sized country by the sea.
But now, even the little kids playing naked on the street know that there is a fool named Duke de Rossi, and the foolish Duke has an even more stupid son named Prince de Rossi.
Not only did he lose all his family's money, but he also lost all the country's public funds. He even lost his pants in the stock market. He became the laughing stock of the entire continent - what did the venture capital companies want to promote?
The news can naturally be made known to everyone in the shortest possible time.
Especially in Maple Leaf Danlin, they own three newspapers alone. And all of them are famous newspapers with huge circulations.
In addition, those students who are full of food and have nothing to do all day are afraid that the world will not be in chaos, but no matter what you are, not to mention the propaganda all over the world behind your back, they dare to laugh loudly even in front of you.
Just like now, the young men and women passing by Mr. De Rossi's carriage always glanced at De Rossi, leaned together and whispered, with sneer and mocking expressions on their faces.
Some people even deliberately walked back and forth in front of De Rossi and the others in order to see what the famous Mr. De Rossi looked like.
Others were standing on the street, pointing at them and laughing, saying: "It's this stupid b~!"
Come and see, everyone.”
"Fighting with our senior Luo Lin will make your life worse than death."
"Fortunately, he didn't go to school in Maple Leaf Danlin."
"Why?"
"Draw down the average IQ of our college."
"Grandma's. This guy is worthy of being a broom star. Just looking at him, I can already feel that my IQ is declining..."
"..."
The Maple Leaf Danlin people laughed at De Rossi and the others unscrupulously.
"Don't be like this. People will say that we Maple Leaf Danlin people are incompetent." Suddenly, someone in the crowd said angrily to the students around him.
Everyone was startled and looked at him with confusion, as if they were aliens.
Then he began to wonder if this guy was a shill sent by De Rossi and his gang.
Some people simply rolled up their sleeves and approached him with a serious look on their face, ready to beat him up.
For a long time, in order to avoid diplomatic disputes, people in Maple Leaf Danlin generally did not fight outsiders, but they did not hesitate to fight with their own people.
The man looked at the gangsters surrounding him like evil wolves with malicious intentions, but he did not panic, but said leisurely: "Students, it is very polite to curse people, and we should do this at this time."
Then, the man suddenly raised his two middle fingers, gave a fierce gesture to Mr. De Rossi and his group, and shouted loudly: "Silly 13, get out of here~!"
Several students behind the man made the same move, raised their middle fingers high, and shouted in unison: "Silly 13. Get out of here~!"
"Go back to your silly planet."
"The earth is very dangerous and not suitable for you stupid people to live in."
"..."
Obviously these people are from the same department.
Those with a keen eye have long noticed that this group of people are from the Strategy Department of the Military Academy - all these brats are Lord Lorraine's classmates and juniors.
Students who are about to graduate, veterans who are about to retire from the army, wives who are about to get divorced... Under normal circumstances, these are all extremely vicious people.
The strategic science students who are in the same class as Lord Lorraine will graduate in a few days. The few days before the graduates leave school are the most exciting and terrifying. Even the security team hides away from them.
Even if they have nothing to do, they still want to cause trouble with the security team, and show off the bad temper they have been under for four years.
Several people made serious provocations and no one came forward to stop them, even though people from the security team were nearby.
Seeing the arrogant performance of the strategy department people, the others were not to be outdone and imitated them. They raised their middle fingers and shouted loudly: "Get out of here, you idiot~!"
Thousands of people pointed out that he died without illness.
De Rossi and his group, who were scolded by many Maple Leaf Danlin people, also had a hard time.
The noble's followers and guards stood in front of the carriage, surrounding a few people in the middle, watching the students around them with vigilance.
Facing the students' provocation, I could only bear it with a grim face. There were people from the security team next to me, and several mages looked at them eager to try, wishing they could rush out.
Viscount Andrei slumped in his seat like a mentally retarded person, with a silly expression on his face, as if he couldn't hear anything, like a frightened child.
Marquis Gower was not as high-spirited as before. He clenched his fists and glared angrily at the Maple Leaf Danlin people around him. It seemed that if he hadn't been afraid of the large number of people on the other side, he would have rushed up to beat them.
However, he could only endure it now. The noble Marquis Gore had never been so angry since he was a child. He was depressed and had nowhere to vent. He raised his eyes and glanced at the weak Viscount Andre next to him.
Seeing his cowardly appearance, Marquis Gower felt so angry that he slapped Viscount Andre on the head hard, pointed at his nose and cursed: "You have some talent~!
Isn’t it just a little money?”
Viscount Andrei shrank his neck in fear and hid deep in the carriage, as if he was about to cry.
Gore's lungs were about to burst with anger, and he was ready to step forward and teach this young Andre a lesson.
Mr. De Rossi stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "Let him go. It's like this when you encounter setbacks for the first time."
Marquis Gore snorted and jumped into the carriage.
Mr. De Rossi stood upright in front of the car door. When he saw people all around him who raised their middle fingers at him and called him "silly", a gleam appeared in his eyes and he suddenly laughed.
A gentle smile full of aristocratic style.
The people who were yelling and scolding on the other side were suddenly stunned for a moment. They couldn't think of anything else that would make this embarrassed young man laugh.
De Rossi gracefully waved to the surrounding maple leaves, as if saying goodbye to a friend, and whispered: "Goodbye, we will meet again."
Then they got into the carriage. The convoy quickly drove to the dock of Jingshui Lake.
Watching their carriage go along the mainland, the remaining Maple Leaf Danlin people gathered together and asked doubtfully: "Is this guy sick? Can he still laugh?"
"Maybe he's mad."
Aksud, the leader of the Strategy Section, rubbed his chin and looked at the back of the convoy. He said thoughtfully: "This guy is a bit interesting..."
Everything that happened in Maple Leaf Danlin had long been expected by Lorraine.
Having dug a huge hole, Duke De Rossi and his son will not be in trouble. What awaits him back in Leiria will definitely not be a good thing, or at least he will be left dying.
After the last few adjustments, the stock price of Feiying Railway finally returned to rationality and stabilized between seven and eight.
Lorraine and Leo's goal has been achieved, earning more than 50 million in cash from this hype and additional issuance.
This gold was immediately invested in the construction of Daunai'an.
As long as he has money in his pocket, Lord Lorraine never skimps on big projects.
Grand infrastructure construction is the best way to improve residents' living standards.
Chairman Leo spent a lot of money, and the two main lines of the Feiying Railway started construction at multiple points at the same time.
The port of Nidel City began to expand again, and at the same time, Nidel City was expanded, a new satellite city was built, and roads leading to the southern farms and pastoral areas were built.
Build more mines and smelters in the eastern provinces such as Constantinople, expand the production scale of steam engines, and expand the production of military factories and weapons.
Train more artillery and Orc Panzergrenadiers.
At the same time, we formulate preferential investment policies to attract people from all over the world to set up factories in Nai'an, grant loans to small and medium-sized enterprises, and help them expand the scale of their factories. We also recruit a large number of immigrants and provide them with simple housing.
Wait wait wait.
There are too many things that need to be handled by Governor Lorraine personally. Even with the help of Catherine and Adele, Lord Lorraine is still busy and his desk is full of documents.
Every day there are endless meetings and meetings with endless officials and businessmen. They wait in line until late at night just to talk to the governor for five minutes.
The gold was spent like running water. During this period, Princess Lulu also helped her cousin negotiate a large investment deal. She attracted a large amount of investment from the Elf Kingdom and was highly praised by her cousin and cousins-in-law.
In order to compete for a large amount of construction funding, multiple department heads and city lords also staged a full-scale martial arts battle in front of Lorraine, and the fight was very lively.
Naian was like a rumbling locomotive, puffing out thick smoke and hurtling forward.

There was a commotion in the military camp of the Fourth Caribbean Division.
The midsummer sun was mercilessly scorching the ground, and tens of thousands of soldiers from the entire division crowded into the military camp's school grounds, training under the command of officers.
The sound of "huha" kept coming.
After putting my feet on it, the entire field was filled with dust, as if it was shrouded in mist.
The soldiers, who were covered in stinky sweat from being exposed to the sun, were covered in dust, and all of them were suddenly ashen and gray-faced.
From time to time, he would lie down and crawl on his stomach, or roll around on the ground several times, making him look as dirty as if he had been poured with muddy water.
The officers were all neatly dressed and walked around among the soldiers with their hands behind their backs. If they found anyone slacking off, they would punch and kick them.
On the high platform of the school grounds, the admiral of the 4th Caribbean Division sat high on a chair with a parasol above his head, watching the soldiers drill at leisure.
Recruit Lamy raised his eyes and couldn't help cursing: "Old bastard, you really know how to enjoy it~!"
Anderson also cursed angrily: "What the hell, apart from drinking the blood of soldiers, it has no abilities. I heard..."
"Hush~!" Sylvie warned, "The evil dog is coming."
Several people immediately used all their strength to pretend to practice.
An officer wandered up to them, lazily raised his eyelids and glanced at them, then frowned and, with a face like a bulldog, pushed through the crowd and walked in.
Sylvie and the others sighed inwardly, they all knew someone was going to be in trouble. This officer was famous for being mean and cruel. He liked to make trouble for the recruits and bully them for fun when nothing happened.
The officer savagely and rudely pushed away the recruit in front of him, walked straight to Amu, glared at him and said, "You kid, haven't you had enough to eat?"
When the soldiers were practicing, Amu's hands and feet were limp and he had no energy at all.
Amu's face turned pale with fright, and he lowered his head tremblingly, not daring to look at him.
"I order you to raise your head and look at me~!" the officer shouted fiercely.
Ammu raised his head carefully and looked at him timidly.
Just as the officer was about to speak, he suddenly felt bloating in his stomach and couldn't help but let out a loud belch.
A fishy smell mixed with the smell of alcohol came from the floor. Amu was so smoked that he couldn't help but take a step back. There was a burst of low laughter from around him.
The officer's face instantly turned red. He glared at Amu angrily and cursed, "What are you looking at?"
He raised his leg and kicked Amu hard in the stomach.
Amu flew back and fell heavily to the ground. He closed his eyes and remained motionless, his face turned frighteningly pale.
There was a commotion around, and the recruits immediately dispersed, surrounding Amu in the middle, looking down at him.
An officer who was watching the fun came over and laughed loudly, patted his colleague on the shoulder and said, "You're miserable, you beat someone to death again. Just wait to be scolded~!"
The officer looked bitter and said, "It's obvious that this kid is too inexperienced."
Because too many soldiers died in the arduous training, the commander of the Fourth Division tragically discovered that if this continues, his division will lose one-third of its men before the war begins. He is now strictly controlling his officers.
Abuse of soldiers.
Sylvie pushed through the crowd and ran to Ammu, checked his breathing, and said in surprise: "Sir, he is still alive. But he seems to have suffered from heat stroke."
The officer breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hands unhappily and said, "Unlucky, send him to the infirmary."
Lamy and Anderson rushed over immediately, lifted Amu up with Sylvie and left.
Others wanted to join hands. This was a good opportunity to avoid training, but the officer kicked them back and said: "Three people are enough. The others will continue training. If we can't do it today, we will cancel lunch."
Sylvie and the others carried Amu into the big tent at the back of the camp. Outside the tent, several military doctors were sitting under umbrellas chatting, with a few bottles of wine on hand.
Seeing them, the military doctor casually asked: "What's going on?"
"Heat stroke, sir, please take a look."
The military doctor waved his hand impatiently and said, "Put it somewhere, I'm not free now."
Sylvie and the others carried Amu into the tent, and then they lay on the ground panting, taking the opportunity to be lazy.
Several soldiers were lying on the ground inside the tent, groaning feebly.
Lamy looked at no one around, poked Anderson, and said mysteriously: "I heard some shocking news, do you want to know?" ^-^^-^
