The Royal Bank quickly obtained the newly produced bonds from the Baobao Bank and prepared to choose an auspicious day for public sale.
The bonds sold this time are called train bonds, and they can be purchased by everyone.
As soon as the news came out, the people in the capital cheered and ran to tell each other. Everyone's face was filled with joy, and they held precious banknotes in their hands, ready to rush to the front to buy bonds as soon as the bank started selling them.
Maybe people in other places are still worried about whether the money will be wasted and whether they will lose everything, but the people in the capital are not afraid.
Although it was their first time to hear about bonds, they thought they were not much different from securities, and the people in the capital were very familiar with securities.
In recent years, as maritime merchants have continued to expand overseas, which citizen in the capital has not purchased securities? Who has never tasted the sweetness of buying securities?
More importantly, they have personally seen how profitable trains are. It can be said that as long as the railway tracks are built, you can make a lot of money every day.
There is no need to worry that the court will not be able to repay it in the future. Besides, even if the court cannot repay it, they can just find a bank.
???????????????This is a sure-profit deal, a rare opportunity!
Selling bonds can be said to have pointed out a new business to the Royal Bank. Therefore, Zhu Yunye and the bank attached great importance to it. They specially released the news in advance and prepared a grand event. They wanted to introduce this novel trading method of bonds to as many people as possible. people accept it.
On the day of the bond sale, there was a roar of gongs and drums at the entrance of the Royal Bank. A huge stage had been set up here long ago, and famous troupes and jugglers from the capital were invited to perform non-stop since morning, attracting a large number of people.
...
Han Du was sitting in the attic of the mansion, vaguely hearing the noise coming from the Royal Bank, and showed a faint smile.
An Qing came up with two maids, and he was relieved when he saw Han Du sitting at the window.
Putting on a gentle smile, he walked forward and sat next to Han Du.
Han Du glanced sideways at her and said calmly: "You and Yao Yue weren't going to watch the fun, why are you back?"
"If you don't go, why should I go?" Although An Qing is not young, she is naturally beautiful and looks like she is thirty years old.
Perhaps even because she is well-informed and experienced, her temperament also has an open-mindedness that sees through common things, which is even more fascinating.
"It's good to go out and get some fresh air after staying in the house all day." Han Du said casually without going into details, and then asked: "Where is Yao Yue?"
"She went to watch the fun." An Qing smiled and joked: "You really miss Yao Yue! Sure enough, as the old saying goes, a wife is not as good as a concubine!"
Han Du's expression did not change at all, he looked into An Qing's eyes calmly, and said with a smile: "Are you still jealous? You are jealous now, don't you think it is too late?"
"Tch~ just spoil her as hard as you can!" An Qing sneered, looking away from Han Du and looking in the direction of the Royal Bank, "After all, she is also Mrs. Ru of the Zhenguo Palace. What is it like running around all day long? ? But I, the head mother of the house, still can’t control her. Every time I want to control her, someone will feel very distressed..."
Han Du smiled dryly and touched his nose. It wasn't because he felt bad...but because he felt that everyone had different preferences. Since Yao Yue liked to join in the fun, let her be. Anyway, this is not a crime, why are you being restrained so rigidly?
Of course, Yaoyue's behavior may be similar to deviant to Anqing, who has accepted royal etiquette since childhood. Because of Han Du's connivance towards Yao Yue, An Qing has been enduring it.
When An Qing saw Han Du's expression, she let out a long breath. She didn't know how many times she had said this, but the result was the same every time. An Qing was too lazy to dwell on this issue anymore.
Listening to the sound of gongs and drums coming from the Royal Bank, An Qing turned around and looked at Han Du with a smile: "Today is the official day of bond sales. You have been busy for so long, how come it is now? But you didn’t buy it?”
Han Du laughed, shook his head slightly and said, "If I want money, do I still need to buy bonds?"
After An Qing heard this, he nodded slightly in agreement. With Han Du's ability, if he really wanted to make money, why would he need so much trouble? Just wave your hand and you can get gold and silver.
Han Du glanced at An Qing and said with a smile very fast: "Bonds are very good, but they are not without their drawbacks."
"What's the disadvantage?" An Qing slowly picked up the tea cup and took a sip, listening to Han Du's words leisurely.
When Han Du saw An Qing drinking tea, he suddenly felt that his throat was a little dry, so he also took a sip.
Cai Dao: "Although bonds are risk-free, their interest rates are very low!"
"Low? The interest rate of 10% per year, although it cannot be compounded, is still pretty good, right?" In Anqing's view, this interest rate is already pretty good.
Of course, lending money directly to others will be higher, but at the same time the risk will be high. What if the other party doesn’t pay back the money after borrowing it? What should I do if I run away? What if I die?
These are all questions.
But bonds lent to buying banks do not have these concerns. As long as the bank is still there, they can get their money back with interest.
"Good or bad is relative," Han Du showed the same smile he usually used when talking about making money, and said with bright eyes, "For the common people, 10% interest every year without any risk is already considered very good. But for those who are truly proficient in business, lending money to banks is a loss.”
An Qing understood immediately, smiled and curled his lips, and said reluctantly: "The people can't make money without you, they can only choose to buy bonds."
Han Du laughed at himself and did not continue talking about this topic. What to say? Even if what you say is right, or even comes from your own personal experience, there is no guarantee that the listener will understand or comprehend it.
And even if you understand and comprehend it, you may not be able to achieve the same level as yourself. Just because you know how to do something, you will definitely be able to do it. The right time, right place and right people are indispensable.
Even if you know the method, the time and place have changed, but if you don't know how to adapt in time and continue step by step according to the methods you have learned, you are destined to die.
As the sound of gongs and drums gradually became smaller, the Royal Bank was also coming to an end. In fact, the bonds had already been sold out shortly after they were released.
Those who bought the most were the big businessmen like Tong Ling. They were originally very resistant to lending money to the court, but after they became banks and issued bonds, they were afraid that they would buy less than others.
As soon as the bonds were sold out, Yin Changlong immediately asked his subordinates to sort it out, and with the results, he happily entered the palace to see the emperor.
Zhu Yunye was not hunched over his desk reviewing memorials as usual today. His figure sitting on the dragon chair kept twisting, revealing his inner restlessness.
Although there is great confidence in the sale of bonds, the grasp of this matter has not really been settled. No one knows whether people will buy it or how much they will buy.
"Your Majesty, Chief Yin would like to see you."
Zhu Yunye opened his eyes suddenly and shouted quickly: "Hurry up!"
"yes."
Yin Changlong followed the eunuch and walked in quickly with hunched steps.
Before Yin Changlong could salute, Zhu Yunye waved his hand and interrupted, "No need, tell me how the bond sales went?"
Yin Changlong's legs that had just been bent halfway stopped suddenly, he straightened up quickly, and said with a smile on his face: "Your Majesty, I am so happy!"
"Tell me, how many have been sold?" Zhu Yunye couldn't help but feel anxious.
He couldn't help but not be anxious. If he had only sold four million bonds according to the original plan, then he wouldn't be too worried about not being able to sell them all.
But later, after discussing with Wang Yuanji, he felt that since the court could raise money to build railway tracks through bonds, why not just build two railway tracks at the same time?
Therefore, the bonds sold this time are not 4 million bonds, but 10 million bonds!
"All sold out, sold out in less than two hours!" When Yin Changlong spoke, his whole body could not help but tremble slightly. He has become famous in one battle this time, so of course he can't suppress his excitement.
"Hahaha...Okay, okay!" Zhu Yunye clapped his hands happily.
After laughing enough, he quickly waved to Yin Changlong, "Hurry and present the details, I can't wait to see it!"
Yin Changlong quickly picked up the memorial in his hand.
The eunuch ran down and took it. After checking it, he presented it to Zhu Yunye.
Zhu Yunye opened it and took a look, and couldn't help but smile on his face. Obviously the numbers on the document made him very satisfied.
After reading it carefully, Zhu Yunye suddenly frowned. He looked up at Yin Changlong and asked doubtfully: "Didn't Duke Zhen Guo buy bonds?"
Yin Changlong didn't expect that the emperor would ask such a question out of the blue. He quickly recalled it carefully and nodded affirmatively: "It was the emperor who reminded me that I remembered that I really didn't see anyone from the Zhenguo Palace here today. "
In fact, when Zhu Yunye didn't see the purchase amount of the Zhenguo Government just now, he did a mental calculation and was already sure. The question I just asked was just to confirm with Yin Changlong again.
After receiving a definite answer, Zhu Yunye slowly closed the memorial and couldn't help but frown. Originally, he thought that Han Du would not give up this piece of fat, and he specifically told Wang Yuanji not to reveal the increase in bonds to Han Du, just to avoid being bought too much by Han Du.
Zhu Yunye never thought that Han Du would not buy it for a penny?
Could it be that...he's not bullish on bonds?
Thinking of this, Zhu Yunye was shocked. If there is really something wrong with the bonds, then this matter will be a huge trouble.
The more bonds you sell now, the bigger the trouble will be in the future!
With this thought in his mind, Zhu Yunye no longer cared about anything else. Now he couldn't wait to rush to Han Du immediately and ask the matter clearly!
