During the Franco-Prussian War, Xiao Letian brought to the Chinese people, no, no, no... He brought an unimaginable gift package to the whole of China and even East Asia!
Not only compensation, but also land cessation! It is so brilliant that it is unbelievable. How can ordinary people who have never seen the world believe it?
And confidence is the foundation of a market. When confidence is shaken, someone will take action!
There will definitely be cowards and cautious people who are unwilling to eat the last piece of cake and always like to settle for less. This is a common feature of agricultural civilization.
So some people in the market began to sell stocks, secretly exchange banknotes for silver coins, and even sell bonds!
Precisely because they are the actions of scattered people and small businessmen, these actions can only cause certain fluctuations in prices. Liu Henzhen, Fan Yan, Hu Xueyan and others all have funds to support the market.
Once the price fluctuates too much, they will enter the market to stabilize it, so the market is not in any big trouble.
But this market sentiment was discovered by Zhang DaDa. He suddenly felt that this was a good opportunity to make money. He knew the first-hand news. Of course he knew that the head of state was not bragging at all, and Europe was victorious.
So isn’t the current market chaos a good opportunity to make a fortune?
While you are in chaos, I will smash your confidence, let the market collapse, and take advantage of the chaos to buy chips... When the head of state comes back with real money and silver... Hahaha, that scene will be absolutely spectacular!
After thinking about it, Zhang boldly started talking secretly with a large number of peers in the market, the so-called insiders, until finally they had a detailed plan.
Fortunately, the Chinese people are still young. Fortunately, Xiao Letian, a powerful figure, can control all forces. People still respect the rules of the head of state.
Zhang DaDa and the others did not dare to make decisions without authorization. Instead, they approached Fan Jian, Hu Xueyan, Liu Hexin... and even Xiao Hexin with a plan!
But Zhang DaDa did not show up, but encouraged other small investors to come forward. He was also afraid that something would happen and he would be involved.
Zhang DaDa and his group are just waiting for these big guys to nod. As long as the bosses relent, the entire Jiangnan wealth will be robbed within a month or two.
They have organized a large number of foreign reporters and editors, waiting for the order to be issued, they start to fabricate false news, and then focus on each market to sell down the market.
Negative news in newspapers, coupled with horrific rumors in the market, will begin to spread throughout the Jiangnan region with explosive efficiency.
Once people are afraid, people will sell like crazy, and the price will be as low as possible!
Today a silver coin can be exchanged for a one-yuan banknote. Maybe it can be exchanged for a five-yuan banknote in the afternoon, and tomorrow it can be exchanged for a ten-yuan banknote.
Various three-year and five-year bonds issued by the head of state will be sold at low prices at 30% or 40% of their face value.
Of course there are stocks, just dive in like crazy and lose those small and medium-sized investors alive!
When the price is low enough, they secretly purchase cheap financial products without letting the common people know about it.
This is a very large plan with extremely high feasibility. Looting 100 million taels of silver is only a conservative estimate. According to Zhang Xiaowen's estimate, there is no problem in plundering 150 million taels of silver.
Because Jiangnan is so rich, the wealth of the entire Yangtze River Basin accounts for more than half of the Qing Dynasty!
Their plan was so big that it frightened Hu Xueyan, Fan Ru, Xiao Hexin and others. The attitude of the top management suddenly became subtle. They neither opposed nor supported it, but actually hesitated!
It was precisely with such an ambiguous attitude that Zhang Daudao and others were ready to take action, and the fluctuations in the Jiangnan market suddenly became violent!
In the eyes of people like Zhang DaDa, politicians cherish their feathers. Hu Xueyan is a red-top businessman who entered the business world through an official career. Such a person would not nod directly.
As for adults such as Fan Qian and Xiao Hexin, they cherish their reputation. King Xiao Tian will be the prime minister in the future, so he cannot mess with such a slut!
Therefore, not objecting is actually nodding in approval. Since you acquiesce, I dare to do it!
But I never expected that the whole plan had just begun. Suddenly shocking news came from Ryukyu. The foreign legion stationed in the Far East suddenly moved without Xiao Hexin's military order.
He crossed the sea directly from the Far East and returned to Ryukyu, and the great monk Ryuushi who practiced Fuso returned to Naha with a high profile and righteously opposed this plan!
When Zhang Xiaowen and others saw this result, everyone was frightened...Chinese businessmen in this era did not have the courage to infiltrate the military.
They are not like the British capitalists who chopped off the king's head and made the British Army unpopular with the royal family until now!
Zhang Xiaowen did not dare and did not have the courage to confront the forces that could mobilize the army. The abscess disappeared without a break.
Hu Xueyan originally thought that this matter would be so peaceful, but he didn't expect to receive information from the people below that Zhang Xiaowen had resigned, and his entire family had been divided among them after all his wealth was gone.
Hu Xueyan was such a smart person. He knew something was wrong as soon as he heard it, and rushed to Shanghai with his bodyguards overnight, and then rescued Zhang Xiaowen before committing suicide.
After hearing the results, it turned out that the real mastermind of this plan was Zhang DaDa!
After listening to his men's cries, Hu Xueyan was so angry that he slapped him twice in the face, "You! You are so courageous. How can you do such a thing? What a shame!"
"You have to know that our small shoulders cannot carry this kind of large-scale action... Except for the head of state who can make the decision, no one else can move it!"
"But...but this matter has been settled, why are you still committing suicide?"
"In the final analysis, it's just an attempted financial strangulation, but you won't die! At the worst, I'll find a place for you to work. Avoid Jiangnan and let's go somewhere else to continue our business!"
"If the head of state wants to scold him, let him scold him. If he wants to be punished, he will be punished. Even if he is imprisoned, it will only last a year and a half... As long as I protect you, you will not be wronged even if you go in!"
"Why do you have to die! Are you stupid?"
The tears that Zhang Xiaowen had just stopped welled up again, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu... My sins don't end with this!"
"I...I...I have contacted Beifang!"
As soon as he said these words, Hu Xueyan felt like a huge thunder exploded in his heart. The crackling lightning made his eyes turn white and he could not see anything!
"You...you...please tell me carefully..." Hu Xueyan said, covering his chest.
Zhang Xiaowen also took the risk and said, "Sir! In fact, I won't hide it from you... What we businessmen pay attention to in doing business is to connect the world, and all the money must be used!"
"I... I have always been in contact with Yang Zhi in the north... This financial strangulation war... Yang Zhi also made up his mind!"
"Once action begins, the Manchu funds commanded by Yang Zhi will also come in and enter the market... He has more than 20 million yuan in authority to use!"
"I...I...I roped him in!"
