The person who appeared in front of the professor and his wife had a thin face and small eyes. He looked a little scary for some reason: "My people said they found you two sneaking around the mines in Yunnan.
So I arrested you, and I came here specially from Guangzhou to deal with this matter."
As he said that, he seemed to have remembered something: "It's time, my name is Yu Lei."
"I solemnly protest to you!" Professor Morris said emotionally: "I am an American citizen and I am here to conduct research. You have no right to detain us! I ask you to release us immediately!"
Yu Lei smiled faintly: "Here, I have all the rights I want. Heaven is my heaven and earth is my land. I don't care which country you are from. Here, even if the President of the United States comes,
You have to listen to me!"
Professor Morris was stunned. He had traveled to countless countries, but he had never encountered anyone as arrogant as the person in front of him.
"What do you want to do?" Professor Morris asked somewhat guiltily.
Yu Lei politely asked the professor to sit down: "Actually, it's nothing. I know you are here to see if there is any gold mine. I can tell you that there is no gold mine. Oh, no, exactly.
It is said that there is indeed gold in a mine, but it is a pity that the cost of developing it far exceeds the return, and it is simply not worth the gain!"
Professor Morris never expected that he would be so honest: "Then why did the joint expedition team publish the names of the people who discovered the gold mine? This is a big scam. Are they willing to do this for you?"
"Piers was completely in the dark. As long as he did some tricks on the so-called gold mine, we could successfully deceive him. However, those two experts did cost us a lot of money.
." Yu Lei said nonchalantly: "This money can allow them to live comfortably for several lifetimes. When this matter is over, they can spend their old age peacefully lying on a bed made of money, and even spend the whole day there.
They are all there counting their money to get by."
"Morality has been lost, morality has been lost!" Professor Morris shouted angrily: "This violates the ideals of a scientist and moral ethics will inevitably be condemned!"
Yu Lei smiled slightly: "Condemnation? Compared with money, what is condemnation? Professor, you don't have to be involved in this matter, but why do you have to come to Yunnan and expose the so-called truth?
This is China, not the United States, where you can go wherever you want!"
Professor Morris calmed down his emotions.
Obviously, he has now become his prisoner, and what the professor is most concerned about is what he wants to do with him!
Yu Lei glanced at Professor, and then said calmly: "Professor, since you are already here, please do one thing for me. Send a telegram to Shanghai and say that you have proved the gold mine through on-site investigation.
"True"
"No, never!" Professor Morris said without thinking: "I will never do something that goes against my own conscience. A true scientist can die but must never betray his conscience!"
Yu Lei smiled very sarcastically: "You are not afraid of death? Yes, maybe you are not afraid of death, but where is your wife?"
"What do you want to do?" Professor Morris involuntarily leaned towards Madam.
Yu Lei said calmly: "What do I want to do? I will let your wife work in the mine, and I guarantee that she will not be able to see the sun all year round. From now on, she will never have a beautiful evening dress, no
Luxurious banquet. Her beautiful hands will soon become rough, she will contract tuberculosis or a more terrible disease, and then she will die within a few months."
"Devil, devil!" Professor Morris shouted loudly: "You have no right to do this!"
"I do!" Yu Lei continued, "No one can stop me from anything I want to do here. Do you believe in God, Professor? I am the God here. I can decide a person's life or death at will, oh,
It’s time, when you and your wife disappeared, someone would be looking for you, but who would have thought that the famous Professor Maurice and his wife would die in a mine?”
Maurice's lips trembled.
Dugui, this person must be a devil!
When he said these words, he didn't even blink, as if he was talking about the most ordinary thing.
Looking at her wife again, Yvonne's face turned pale because of fear, and her body was constantly trembling. She grabbed her husband tightly, and she held it so tightly that she couldn't help it no matter what.
Refuse to let go.
Yu Lei seemed to have lost the patience to continue dealing with them: "Okay, professor, since you insist on not sending this telegram, I will not ask someone to take Mrs. Ivona to the mine.
"
Two big men walked in.
"Wait!" Professor Morris finally called out.
Yu Lei looked at the professor with a smile. The professor's mouth was trembling. He was reluctant, but he had to say word by word the words he thought he would never say anyway: "I, Niyi
,
Yu Lei smiled brightly, clapped his hands, and someone who came in said: "Take the professor to send a telegram, and take the wife down to have a good rest. You must be a good master."
The frustrated professor was taken away, and Sap asked: "Director, what should we do with them after sending the telegram?"
"Keep them locked up and don't let them out again." Yu Lei sighed: "I originally wanted to let them go, but they are Americans after all. If this matter spreads, the impact will be too great.
, none of us can bear this responsibility. There is no Professor Maurice, and there is no Lady Yvonne, we have never seen them."
The telegram sent by Professor Morris from Yunnan once again plunged Shanghai into madness.
Professor Morris has always been a rigorous person. He is almost an authority in mining. Every word he says can be regarded as a final judgment with decisive significance!
No one can doubt Professor Morris, just as no one doubts that Germany will inevitably fail.
This telegram arrived in Shanghai first, and then several apricot research documents signed by Professor Morris himself also arrived. There were even several photos that arrived: Professor Morris and his wife,
Standing in front of a mine with a smile on his face. On the back of the photo, the professor wrote: A great discovery, a gold mine that can shock the world. I would like to pay tribute to my friends Jeff and Loyle!
Sensational, Shanghai is sensational again!
The testimony of Professor Morris, an authority in the mining industry, made those banks and individuals who originally maintained a wait-and-see attitude completely abandon their last concerns.
A gold mine, a real gold mine, a gold mine confirmed by Professor Morris himself!
Is there anything more exciting than this?
HSBC was the first to make a statement that once the shares of the "United Bank of China and France" were successfully listed, it would accept the pledge business of the stock in HSBC. Subsequently, various banks also successively made the same statement as HSBC.
A telegram from Professor Morris may have had a far greater reaction than he imagined. If he had seen with his own eyes what he had caused, he might not have done it anyway.
However, nothing happened. On December 6, 1918, the shares of the "Sino-French Joint Mining Company" were officially listed. This stock was also called "gold mining stock".
The issue price of gold mining stocks per share was 189 yuan. On the day of the issuance, there was a sea of people outside the stock exchange, and there was almost no place to stand. The entire Shanghai went crazy because of the "gold mining stocks".
On the day of the issuance, gold mining stocks rose all the way. From the issue price of 189 yuan, they soared as if they were full of energy. By the close of the day, they climbed to a shocking price of 303 yuan!
Crazy, completely crazy!
Good news continues to come, machinery and equipment are already being purchased, and actual mining of gold mines will begin soon.
On the 7th, Daosheng Bank once again announced that it would inject 300,000 yuan into the "Sino-French Joint Mining Company". This news undoubtedly added fuel to the fire of gold mining stocks at that time!
Rising, rising, rising, rising all the way!
At the close of trading on the 7th, the gold mining stock stayed at the price of 426 yuan.
The '1,000 mark is already very close.
The most popular "rubber stock" in Shanghai at that time. A company issued 1 million yuan of stocks, and the results were sold out within half an hour: one stock with a face value of 1.0 yuan, and the highest price rose to 180 yuan; another face value
A stock worth 100 yuan rose to 700 yuan at its highest.
This kind of market situation has greatly stimulated the confidence of Shanghai investors, thereby promoting the skyrocketing rise of Shanghai Rubber stocks.
Under such favorable stimulation, some people have jumped into this stock trend before they even understood what rubber is. Many rubber companies advertised in newspapers, trying their best to spread the company's bright prospects, and claimed that it
The stocks can be borrowed in cash at par value from foreign banks, thus not only winning the trust of Chinese businessmen in Shanghai, but also a large number of foreigners and foreign banks in Shanghai. In this round of transactions, the Chinese businessmen invested between 26 million and 26 million in the Shanghai market.
Between 30 million taels, the capital invested in the London market is about 4 million taels, and the two places add up to 40 million taels.
Amid the crazy hype, Shanghai's funds have been almost completely frozen, making it difficult for other industries to obtain funds. This largest financial center in the Far East has no financing left.
However, even such a crazy "rubber stock" is completely dwarfed by "gold mining stocks".
What is real madness? This time is the real madness!
It’s chaos, the whole of Shanghai is in complete chaos! (To be continued.!)
