Lin's voice announcing the start of the auction soon came from outside the door.
Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of a promotional video - the whale oil exchange specially asked an advertising company to produce a promotional video in order to auction this beluga whale.
After the promotional video ended, Lin's voice sounded again, and she began to introduce the details of the beluga, including the length, weight, intactness of the body, the details of the repair and embalming work, and what is special about the beluga compared with other whales. etc……
Unlike whale oil, beluga whale is an unprecedented auction item and must have a detailed introduction to allow bidders to accurately assess its value.
But Xia Ye didn't care about this. She was still curled up on the sofa, reading the gossip about herself with great interest.
The crystal ball suddenly vibrated.
A message popped up on the screen—a transfer from Yaha.
The amount is 8250 moles.
The transfer postscript is: 55000*15%
It seems that the whale oil and whale skin harvested from the last sea voyage have also been traded, and the transaction price is higher than originally expected.
And this does not include the price of 16 sets of wing bones (originally 24 sets, 8 sets were used when the first mate summoned the "Bone King"). According to the previous agreement, Yaha kept them and waited for Xia Ye himself. Buy.
Xia Ye pressed receive.
The magic power of 8,500 moles flowed into the crystal ball along the mole network. Since the crystal ball did not have the function of storing moles for a long time, they flowed directly into Xia Ye's cup.
The 1,000 moir that was overdrafted by the navy a few days ago was paid off instantly, and the remaining 7,500 moir became the upper limit of the debt issuance limit and disappeared without a trace in the cup.
Xia Ye raised her wrist, and the numbers on it had changed: 0, 93230, 0
This means that now she can absorb up to 93,230 Moir through debt issuance.
This number was a little more than she had expected. However, she is not ready to use up her quota.
Issuing more debt is not always better. After all, the more you issue, the more interest you need to pay when repaying it. Moreover, she needs to consider some other factors.
According to her experience, when faced with a new thing, people always like to go to extremes - from being ignored at the beginning, to being enthusiastic about it after accepting it.
A bond is a marketable security. Securities that are enthusiastically sought after will almost certainly deviate from their original value. When people buy bonds no longer for coupons, but to sell them to the next person at a higher price, a bubble will occur.
In an immature market, once a bubble occurs, it is difficult to control it. It will spread and expand at a rapid speed until it reaches a critical point and then bursts.
By then, except for the controllers of this game, only a handful of lucky people will be spared, and the vast majority of people will be harvested like wheat and eventually face bankruptcy.
In this world, bankruptcy means legal death.
This was a development that Xia Ye could foresee even before the bond was issued.
But fortunately she is a kind witch.
Therefore, she not only controlled the scale of the initial issuance, but also had already made plans in her mind after the bubble burst - since she is the scythe wielder, she has the power to choose the direction of harvesting with the blade.
"Only 60,000 moles will be issued this time. 300 large-denomination bonds with a face value of 100 moles, and 3,000 small-denomination bonds with a face value of 10 moles. The name will be called 'Summer Night December First Issue White Whale Bond', which is abbreviated. '12 White Whale 01', with a term of 3 months and an annualized coupon rate of 40%..."
The girl curled up her legs and sat on the sofa like a cat. She whispered to herself while quickly filling in the information required to generate a bond in [ ].
The financial weapon that would affect Debsota for months to come, or even longer, was thus lightly created.
The beluga auction just ended outside.
After a while, Lin, sweating profusely, walked into the backstage room.
"How is it?" Xia Ye asked with a smile.
"Fortunately, nothing happened at last." Lin said with a sigh of relief.
"Although many people were a little surprised by the finally announced secret auction mode, fortunately it did not affect everyone's enthusiasm. More people participated in the bidding than we expected... I guess it is because they can't see the price, so they will all Quote a price and try your luck.”
"So how many people bid at the end?"
"My assistants are still counting the exact number. It is conservatively estimated that it will not be less than 1,000 people."
"so much?!"
"Yes, so the auction results will not be announced until tomorrow. As for confirmation of the transaction, it will probably have to be the day after tomorrow." Although Lin seemed to be complaining in his words, he could not hide the excitement on his face.
More people bidding means a higher transaction price, and a higher transaction price means more commissions. Coupled with the popularity the auction has gathered, she seems to have seen a bright future.
Xia Ye was a little depressed.
There are 1,000 people on the list... maybe more. This number was far beyond her expectation. Even if she got the list afterwards, it would be as difficult as finding the Titanic in the haystack, if not the needle in the haystack...
"Miss Xia Ye, it's your turn~" Lin reminded from the side. She had just completed a big thing, and her tone became much lighter.
"Um."
Xia Ye put her legs down from the cushion, bent down, and put the small leather shoes with round toes and square heels on the soles of her feet.
"Oh, right……"
Before going out, she seemed to remember something and turned around and said: "Ms. Lin, as a thank you for your support, please remember what I say next."
"Huh?"
"In the next three months, if... I mean if you buy a 'white whale bond', a bond with a face value of 100 moles, please sell it immediately after the market price exceeds 110 moles, with a face value of 10 moles Please sell the bond immediately after it exceeds 12 moles - please remember this sentence."
Lin's expression became more confused.
"Will the price of the two bonds exceed 110 moles and 11 moles? I remember the coupon is only 10%, right?" she asked in disbelief.
Xia Ye didn't answer, just said: "Please remember it."
After saying that, he walked out of the room.
There is a long staircase outside the room, leading to the auction platform set up on the back of the whale - it should be called the podium next. Xia Ye climbed up the stairs while brewing the emotions in her heart.
Bonds are a powerful but extremely simple financial instrument. If you compare it to a weapon, it is like a simple but sharp knife. The power of a knife depends on the user. Some people can only use it to peel fruits, while others can use it to kill people.
Next, it's time to draw the knife out of its sheath.
Xia Ye stepped onto the podium, and an audience of up to 100,000 people appeared in front of her. High "bowl walls" stood around, creating an indescribable sense of oppression. But she didn't feel scared. On the contrary, she was very excited, just like a farmer looking forward to a good harvest when he saw a large field of mature wheat.
She walked to the microphone, and the noise around her quickly quieted down.
"A total of 60,000 moles are issued in this 'Beluga Bond', of which half are large bonds with a face value of 100 moles and small bonds with a face value of 10 moles. The specific information of the bonds has been listed in detail on the screen above. , everyone can watch it by themselves..."
Xia Ye pointed to the dome above, and then smiled:
"However, I believe that these are not what everyone is most concerned about. Therefore, next, I will answer some questions that you are more interested in..."
A beam of red light fell from the dome and hit the podium.
"The questions are randomly selected. Whoever this beam of light falls on can ask me any question."
Before the words were spoken, discussions had already exploded among the crowd. No one expected that the so-called bond issuance road show would start in such a way.
However, as Xia Ye said, this method is obviously more interesting to everyone.
The red light disappeared, and when it reappeared, it had already landed on a lucky person near the front row.
The other party was stunned for a moment. It wasn't until he saw Xia Ye's gesture that he reacted and flew out of the crowd on his broom.
"I'm a reporter from 'Million Mol Information'... uh, a trainee reporter..."
Probably due to nervousness, the girl who asked the question stuttered a little.
"My, my question is: Miss Xia Ye, is the recent news about you on Moer.net true? Is there, uh, exaggerated or untrue content?"
"It's true, the content is completely true." Xia Ye replied calmly.
After a short period of silence...
There was an uproar.
