The government officials from Wannian County were milling around outside the stock exchange.
From time to time, he looked towards the bustling exchange, his eyes full of envy.
There is Jinshan inside, but it's a pity that they don't have money to enter.
When patrolling with envy and expectation, when I see villagers walking towards the exchange, I will take the initiative to stop them, saying that I can't go here.
The villagers were very angry and waved the banknotes in their hands, "We have money, a thousand coins!"
Unfortunately, no matter what they said, it was useless. The government officials were ordered to prevent them from entering.
A luxuriously decorated four-wheeled carriage passed by. The wealthy families in the carriage looked at the villagers who were stopped, and they all showed contempt.
In their view, the only way to dig out gold is that they are qualified to do so. These idiots actually want a piece of the pie, and they really can't see their identities clearly.
Today is the day when the Changwei Railway is officially launched, which is a feast for the rich and aristocratic families.
Almost all the real leaders of the wealthy families, headed by Wu Xingqi Wang, came.
At five o'clock in the morning, everyone met Li Yunze on the high platform of the exchange lobby.
Facing this God of Wealth, no matter what they think in their hearts, they all approach him enthusiastically to greet him. After all, he is the one who is making them rich now.
"You are going to get rich today."
With a smile on his face, Li Yunze greeted everyone enthusiastically, "This is a huge profit."
Everyone also had smiles on their faces, but they were yelling curses in their hearts.
Because Li Yunze formed a partnership with the emperor, he forcibly snatched 40% of the original shares from them, and threatened not to allow the company to be listed if they did not give it back.
What's even more irritating is that this request was made after everyone had used their old foundation and sold countless acres of land.
Faced with threats and temptations of profit, everyone can only grit their teeth and respond, as if they are feeding a mad dog. Anyway, after the sharp rise, they can make back whatever they lose.
The time soon came and the Changzhou-Weihai Railway officially started to go on the market.
The opening price was eight dollars a share, and as soon as it came out, countless people waved their banknotes and wanted to buy it. Unfortunately, the rich and wealthy families who already had experience stood on the high platform and smiled cheerfully, stroking their beards. No one would take action at this time.
The price soon began to rise, and someone was already shouting out the purchase price of ten dollars per share.
It's just that everyone on the high platform is still reluctant to sell, and many people have contempt on their faces. No one is satisfied with the price.
It didn't take long for the price of the Changwei Railway to break through the 15-guan level, which was almost double the issue price.
In other words, those wealthy families with original stocks in their hands have made millions just by standing here for a while!
Everyone winked at each other, and finally the head of the Bolingcui family walked up to Li Yunze and said, "Master Li, we are willing to buy the Changwei stock in your hands at a high price."
"High price?"
Li Yunze looked at him with a half-smile, "How tall are you?"
The head of the Bolingcui family gritted his teeth, "Sixteen coins per share is enough to double the profit."
Li Yunze smiled and pointed to the blackboard not far away, "Now there are fifteen 500 coins. If I throw out sixteen coins, they will be sold out immediately."
Of course everyone knows this, but they are too greedy and want to take advantage of all the profits.
Therefore, we had discussed before that we would get back the stocks in Li Yunze's hands even if we paid a heavy sum of money.
At the beginning, they thought it would be enough to be in the top ten.
But I didn't expect this stock to be so popular. Look at Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde and others shirtless and shouting high prices one after another. The price soared to more than ten dollars.
The golden mountain is in his hand, but there is still a small part held by Li Yunze.
Everyone couldn't bear it anymore, and after a short discussion, they decided to pay a heavy price to win it, and they would be able to earn it back soon anyway.
The head of the Bolingcui family couldn't help but ask, "How much do you want?"
Before Li Yunze could speak, the shirtless Cheng Yaojin below waved a thick stack of banknotes in his hand and shouted in a thunderous voice, "Seventeen coins! I'll buy one share for seventeen coins. If you don't sell it, I'll take it."
insulted!"
The wealthy families all showed contemptuous smiles, and they would not sell it unless the price increased several times.
"Let's see. We are all friends, so let's give you a friendship price." Li Yunze said kindly, "I'll give you all twenty-five guan per share, including His Majesty's."
"What?" Everyone looked angry when they heard this.
The price is too high, and the goods in their hands are simply not enough.
The total shares held by Li Yunze and Li Er amounted to 40% of the total, which was 400,000 shares.
Twenty-five guan per share, that’s 10 million guan!
What a huge and amazing wealth this is.
Just as the head of the Bolingcui family was about to refuse, there was a commotion below the high platform.
Cheng Yaojin, Li Xiaogong and others actually started fighting.
Both sides were punching each other hard while yelling repeatedly, "I want it, don't fight with me!"
"I have money, and I just want to steal it! I'll give you nineteen coins!"
"I'll give you twenty strings, twenty strings!"
"Bah! What do I do when I have no money? I will give you twenty-one!"
Seeing the hot stock market like a volcanic eruption, people from wealthy families quickly discussed among themselves and decided to agree quickly.
It's just not enough money
"I can borrow it." Li Yunze said with a smile, "Sihai Bank has plenty of money and can lend you any amount. It's just the interest."
The interest is high, but no one cares.
They decided to take action when the price reached 30 guan per share. They would first return the property they borrowed from Li Yunze, and the rest would be net income.
The family heads quickly signed a high loan agreement with Li Yunze on this high platform, using their respective family owners' large amounts of land and shops as collateral, and borrowed six million yuan in one breath!
For Li Yunze, a loan of 6 million yuan is just a pile of banknotes, and there is no pressure at all.
After the loan and share transfer documents were processed, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Yunze looked at the man from Baiqisi not far away and nodded slightly towards him.
The man nodded in response and immediately turned around and left the lobby of the exchange.
Li Yunze bowed his hands to the heads of the family and saluted, "I still have things to do, so I'll take my leave now. I wish you all great prosperity!"
After a while of false greetings, Li Yunze got off the platform and walked outside.
"A bunch of idiots are playing with me on my territory with the things I created. I arranged the bank and the stock market, and it's all what they think in their heads."
After leaving the trading floor, Li Yunze did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he went to the second floor of a nearby restaurant, sat on a chair by the railing, drank tea and watched the excitement.
After a short while, the eunuch from the Ministry of Internal Affairs held the imperial edict and walked quickly into the exchange, escorted by a group of palace guards.
"Emperor Fengtian Chengyun issued an edict to check that the Changzhou-Weilongjiang Railway has not yet been completed. How can we sell stocks? This is suspected of deception. I know that everyone should be careful when purchasing and do not lose money. I appreciate this~~~"
After the edict was read out, the hall immediately exploded.
Cheng Yaojin was the first to jump up and yell, "You dare to sell it before it's finished. How shameless!"
"Yes!" Yuchi Jingde shouted in unison, "Shameless, so shameless. I don't care whether you buy it or not, I will never buy it anyway, and I don't want it for free!"
When cutting leeks, naturally not everyone can cut them, otherwise it would shake Li Er's rule.
Therefore, many people had secretly started to run away before, especially the nobles who commanded the army.
Now, whether it is Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde, or Li Xiaogong and others, they are all acting according to the plan.
Everyone on the high platform was like ants on a hot pot, and in panic, they were ready to go to Li Yunze to ask for an explanation.
What they don't know is that this is just the beginning, and the truly terrible things are yet to come.
As if it was an agreement, many people suddenly began to sell various stocks in their hands crazily, especially several railway stocks that bore the brunt.
Some people were shouting loudly, "We have all been deceived. Those railways are not worth so much wealth at all. Hurry up and save your money~~~"
As a large number of stocks were sold at low prices, those blackboards were updating prices rapidly, and each update saw a sharp drop off a cliff.
People in the Tang Dynasty had never seen this kind of scene before. They always thought that this thing would only keep rising.
Although smart people have noticed something wrong before, after all, the value of the stock has far exceeded its actual value.
But they really don’t understand, have no relevant experience, and have never heard of what a stock market crash is.
As the prices of all stocks dropped rapidly, Cheng Yaojin and others began to take the lead in selling. Following the crowd, almost everyone joined in the crazy selling.
The problem is that when everyone is selling, it means that no one is taking over, and the result of no one taking over is that the price keeps falling again and again.
Especially for Changwei Railway's stock, at three quarters to noon, the purchase price put forward by the people arranged by Li Yunze had already fallen below eight dollars per share!
This was not over yet. By the time the market closed in the afternoon, its price had even dropped to less than three thousand dollars.
After the market closed, the gray-haired family owners frantically searched for Li Yunze, but unfortunately they could not be found anywhere.
He ran to the palace again to ask for an audience with the emperor, but the emperor was nowhere to be seen either.
Amid the screams and roars of the crowd, the market opened the next day.
Everyone is holding on to hope that the stock market will rise again the next day.
But the result was shocking. The wealthy people inside and outside the city who received the news rushed over like crazy and sold their stocks frantically.
However, there is still no one to take the offer, so the only option is to keep selling at lower prices, and the psychological bottom line for lowering prices is getting lower and lower.
The craziness of its decline is even more terrifying than yesterday.
Among the heads of the wealthy families, many even fainted.
There is no way, anyone who loses hundreds of thousands, millions or even tens of millions of wealth in just a few days will be unable to bear it and collapse.
After being rescued, the heads of the family all said the same thing.
"Look! Look for them all. Even if you dig three feet into the ground, you can find Li Yunze! The stock market he runs must make him lose money!"
