Yesterday it closed at 7066 points, and today it closed at 4933 points!
The outbreak of the 3.11 stock market crash was just a trigger. 3.12 was the real murderous market. It collapsed at more than 2,000 points a day. The Qing Dynasty had never seen such a scene.
The bloodbath in the financial market is only one aspect that makes people frightened, but what is even more frightening is the nursery rhymes and prophecies among the refugees!
The ancient people were superstitious. These prophecies have been marketed since ancient times. Let alone the ancient people, even Xiao Letian's past life and the senior white-collar workers in the 21st century are not obsessed with promoting #back pictures and Shaobing songs. ?
The West was civilized earlier and also believed in the end of the world and various astrological myths, Mayan prophecies, astrologers' divination, etc.
Human beings are like this, they are naturally curious about the occult, it is something deep in their bones!
Zai Chun and other high-ranking officials in the imperial court actually have complicated attitudes towards the so-called prophecy science. Is the one who can become the elite of the empire a fool?
However, they may not believe it, but they cannot help but be afraid!
Why? Because the people are ignorant, hundreds of millions of people believe it. This is the most terrifying thing!
After Weng Tonghe heard what Er Mao said about the song of the mouse, he was so frightened that his whole back was wet. He felt that his knees were weak, his lower back was sore, and his mind was almost spinning.
But he knew that he couldn't back down at this time today. Once he was rendered speechless by the situation, all the blame would be on his shoulders!
The old man's eyes were chattering, and he lowered his head and looked at Jin Brick, desperately thinking of countermeasures, but at this time Emperor Tongzhi no longer gave them time!
"Since I came into power, I have always treated civil and military officials with kindness and kindness! Has your money for raising integrity increased? Have you made up for the salary arrears over the years?"
"Tell your conscience, after I came to power, although you have been busier, have you ever been treated badly in terms of money and salary?"
"Compared with the war and chaos during the Xianfeng period, your salary is more than three times more!"
"Can't you still buy loyalty like this? You still want to deceive the superiors and deceive the subordinates, and you still treat me as a fool? Is this a disciple taught by a saint?"
"Is this the result of reading books by sages? Your conscience has been eaten by dogs!"
Every word was heartbreaking, and the old man felt like two Gatling sticks on his back, and a strong smell of gunpowder hit his face. He shivered and could no longer pretend to be stupid, so he quickly bowed his head and said.
"Your Majesty! The old minister has something to say... Please let me, your majesty, let the old minister say something!"
"Speak! No one blocked your mouth!"
"Your Majesty! The local officials' failure to report the disaster in time is indeed their responsibility, but is this intentional concealment or is there some hidden agenda? The old minister is going to say something fair today!"
The old man really risked his life. He straightened his waist and looked at the emperor. He was on top of a cow!
The surrounding ministers were all frightened, thinking that the old man was going to commit suicide? At this juncture, do you still dare to fight with Long Live Master?
But the old man could no longer care about life and death. He looked at Zai Chun's angry and distorted face and said loudly, "The foreign devils also said that it only takes more than ten days for rumors to spread, and it only takes about ten days for local officials to conceal the news!"
"It is wrong to conceal the report, but is it guilty? I have a different view... Since ancient times, the emergence of nursery rhymes and prophecies is not that simple!"
"I never believe in anything. Ghosts and gods can make children suddenly shout nursery rhymes through dreams... Behind all prophecies, there is actually a man-made driving force!"
"Your Majesty! This is the source of the prophecy. Please do not believe in any theories about ghosts and gods, nor do you believe in the Supreme Laojun and Lord Huodexing who came down to earth to remind the world. I read the books of sages and do not believe in these theories about ghosts and gods!"
"If I were a local official, I would also choose to block the news if there were such rumors in the local area! My first step is to trace the source of the prophecy, and the second point is to block the news to prevent the prophecy from spreading!"
"I will report to the court only after these two things are done, and it must be reported through secret channels, and it cannot be made public!"
"Since ancient times, this kind of thing has been dealt with in this way. There is no difference. I don't know why it has become a crime this year!"
"It's only ten days. My lords, do you know that investigating the case and quelling the rumors cannot be completed in ten days! The magistrate is a human being, not a god!"
"If you want to say that I am guilty, I need to say a few more words! This matter is so big, and the main culprits are actually the telegraph, the railway, and the stock market!"
ah! Everyone was in an uproar. The old man was so obsessed that he actually put all his blame on these industrial renovation projects personally presided over by the emperor!
Zai Chun was stunned and said, "You...are you blaming me?"
Weng Tonghe bowed his head and burst into tears, "I don't dare, I don't blame me! I just said that these new things from Europe have contributed to the spread of rumors!"
"If everything had been the same as in the past, no telegraph, no stock market, no railroads...then these prophecies would never have spread!"
"They just exploded like sparks in the villages of individual prefectures and counties, and were then extinguished by the local government. There would never be such a panic situation!"
"The presence of telegraph lines and railways... has accelerated the spread of news. In addition, in order to speculate in stocks and make profits based on market confidence, businessmen will seek out all kinds of gossip!"
"Their subordinates, their spies, their fellow villagers and comrades...all these people will be connected into an information network, spreading the good and bad news of a place!"
"Finally, it was collected in the capital, and the stock market crashed again!"
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu !”
"Those officials didn't do anything wrong! They all ran their errands according to the old rules that have existed for thousands of years. There was nothing wrong... Wuwuwu... What was wrong was this damn era!"
"Oh my God! People's hearts are not as old as before... If everything could be the same as before, with scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, all the people living and working in peace and contentment, and the people living in the countryside honestly!"
"Where can such a huge disaster happen?"
"Ah! Damn it...are you asking me to be held responsible? Is all this my responsibility? You are too arrogant. Don't think that you can do whatever you want after being my master for a few days!"
Zai Chun yelled angrily, this was the rhythm that was about to break up!
"Railway, telegraph, stock market...are these things bad? When they are good, why don't you say a word?"
"When the snowstorm first broke out, if it hadn't been for the post office's telegraph lines and maintenance postmen, where would you have been able to deliver the news so quickly?"
"Without the railway, how could the imperial court transport grain and troops? Without the stock market, how could the imperial court raise funds? Are you counting on the little money from the Ministry of Revenue?"
"You are totally denying my industrialization!"
The old man also risked his life and said, "Yes! I am opposed to it!"
