It can only be said that people's greed is really endless. Because of greed, no matter how smart a person is, he will lose his IQ in an instant.
The first batch of smart people got rid of Jiaozi, got real coins, and made a lot of money.
The second group of people who accepted Jiaozi also felt that they had made money, and then began to look for ways to realize their wealth.
They also realized that Jiaozi is just a pile of paper in their hands, and it can turn into wealth after being placed in the hands of others.
So they, who were equally smart, greedy and stupid, also thought of the same way.
Sell these Jiaozi, even at a relatively low price?
As long as it’s more than what you spent to buy it, it’s a profit without losing money!
The game of beating drums and passing flowers begins.
This kind of thing will never happen again. When Jiang Fu learned about the local situation and reported it to Zhao Buxi, Zhao Buxi had a bolder idea in his mind.
"You are so greedy, and you are indeed a businessman. I had doubts before, but now that they are acting like this, I have no doubts at all."
Zhao Buxi sneered and said to Jiang Fu: "Jiang Qing, there is no need to say anything. Just continue to print Jiaozi. It's still the same. Do it in private and don't tell anyone."
Jiang Fu knew that Zhao Buxi thought it was a good thing to make a lot of money like this, and it was even a bit satisfying, but he always felt that it was not a good thing for Zhao Buxi to take the initiative to destroy Jiaozi like this, although this was not the first time that Jiaozi was destroyed.
But under this situation, is it a bit too much to take the initiative to destroy Jiaozi, which is still running smoothly?
Even if you are short of money to a certain extent, you don't have to kill one thousand enemies and lose eight hundred to yourself, right?
If he really wanted to go to this point, Jiang Fu even felt that Zhao Buxi was a bit crazy, but he still didn't say anything. He would agree to whatever Zhao Buxi wanted to do. Anyway, nothing would happen if he did so.
Zhao Buxi took advantage of the greed of those who had taken advantage of the treasury and exchanged convenience stores, and decided to invest another batch of jiaozi into the market to exchange for money. It was still the same old trick. As the saying goes, one trick would be successful all over the world. He felt that such a trick should be tried and true.
This is also true. Such a move has always been tried and true. In a short period of time, a large amount of iron money was continuously sent to the Chengdu treasury. The Chengdu treasury was absorbing the circulating iron money on the market at a very fast speed.
Such speed was unexpected by many people, including Zhao Buxi himself.
I can only say that human greed is really terrifying.
Obviously knowing that there will be some problems in collecting so many jiaozi, but seeing that those country folk can only exchange for less than one-tenth of the iron money with large-denomination jiaozi, the shrewd businessmen always control Can't hold my own hands.
Even though they knew this thing looked a bit weird, they still couldn't control their desires.
Moreover, these Jiaozi are all genuine, and none of them are fake. This has been recognized by all Jiaozi experts. Every Jiaozi is genuine and printed by the imperial court. There are no fakes mixed in.
As a result, they collect money even more unscrupulously, and then transfer it to the next party, making a profit of several hundred percent in one fell swoop.
The next store may not be Jieku or Duibian.
They are all smart people. Smart people are hard to deceive, but fools are easier to deceive.
The shopkeepers of Jieku and Duibian shops brainstormed and came up with the idea of spreading the news that Jiaozi was valuable, and then sent people to the private sector to purchase Jiaozi from some people, and faked a scene of Jiaozi prosperity, so that people in the city could Ordinary people feel that Jiaozi is valuable.
Once the news that money can be made spreads, and a few people actually make money, there will always be many people who believe it regardless of trivial matters.
As a result, many self-employed people with a certain amount of savings at home started to keep Jiaozi in their hands rather than sell it, and instead began to find people to buy Jiaozi, trying to make a fortune in this wave of Jiaozi prosperity.
The next family then goes to the next family of the next family, and the next family of the next family then goes to the next family of the next family of the next family. This cycle repeats, level by level, spreading to places further away from Chengdu.
On the Chengdu Plain, such things happen constantly and are not uncommon.
Even in some places, the war has just subsided, or there are troops stationed not far away, but such things are still happening.
There are always people who feel that they have made a profit, and there are always people who feel that if they exchange a very small amount of iron money for a large denomination of Jiaozi, they will definitely be able to find a buyer, and the buyer will definitely be willing to exchange a higher price for the Jiaozi in his hand, even if it is only A tiny bit of profit.
But as long as there is profit, who wouldn't want it?
This game of beating drums and passing flowers goes on continuously.
In the two months of March and April, the Chengdu imperial court quietly put about 600,000 guan of jiaozi into the market, and received 170,000 guan of iron money into the imperial treasury, with a sky-high rate of return.
Zhao Buxi was really a little crazy now. He felt that private savings still had the potential to be scrapped, and once again ordered Jiayin Jiaozi to enter the market. He still used the same old method, exchanging iron from the warehouses and exchange shops. money.
The shopkeepers of Jieku and Duibian shops have almost realized that someone is behind this matter. Someone is trying to use Jiaozi to exchange for iron money, and there are some ulterior secrets.
But firstly, there is no evidence, and secondly, there are always fools willing to take over the job they have.
So they allowed this game to continue with a tacit understanding, and they enjoyed it as they saw more and more iron money being saved. They were very willing to cooperate with the mastermind behind the scenes to continue playing this game and earn more iron money.
Gradually, during this period, an inexplicable "Jiaozi fever" appeared.
At first, it was Jiang Fu's plan, but gradually, many people began to play the game of "hoarding money and exchanging iron money" involuntarily.
As long as anyone has Jiaozi in their hands, they will find ways to collect it, receive it in their own hands, and then sell it to the person who wants Jiaozi.
In this process, you keep increasing prices and cashing out. If you are lucky, you can earn more than double the profit. If you are unlucky, earning 20 or 30% is considered a low profit and will be ridiculed by your friends. .
So people who couldn't stand the ridicule were unwilling to give in and once again invested their hard money in the craze of hoarding jiaozi. They hoarded jiaozi in larger quantities to prepare to make greater fortunes.
Gradually, in addition to financial practitioners, other groups in the market with plenty of money also joined the game and became gamers.
For a time, the stock of Jiaozi in the market was greatly reduced, and many people began to hoard Jiaozi involuntarily. It was gradually not easy to get a Jiaozi.
In this process, Jiaozi, which had been suppressed to a face value of only one-tenth or less of its original value, began to appreciate in value.
The value has increased from one-tenth to two-tenths, three-tenths, and four-tenths, and then continues to rise. In some areas, the value of Jiaozi has risen to seven-tenths or even tenths of the original denomination. Eight.
It is already impossible to get a Jiaozi at one-tenth or one-fifth of the price.
The most frightening thing for professionals appears, but once this game starts, it cannot be easily decided by humans to end it.
The market has its own rules of operation, and the invisible hand can control them, but it is extremely difficult to achieve foolproof control.
At least Zhao Buxi himself doesn't think that he can control everything in the world.
And this game of drumming and passing flowers seems to have come to an end.
The land of Sichuan and Shu is so big, and without the support of the national market, the economic potential of Sichuan and Shu will soon bottom out.
The game of beating drums and passing flowers has spread as much as possible to all places it can reach. The people holding this batch of handouts have also changed from the shopkeepers of Jieku and Duibian shops to ordinary small landowners, rich farmers, and other people who are limited by the information gap. Middle peasants, small businessmen, and petty citizens.
Of course, it's not absolute.
Some greedy big landowners, self-righteous bureaucrats, and small bureaucracy and cashier shopkeepers who are eager to make big money also hold a lot of handouts and dream of getting rich.
They have strong financial support and are more viable than ordinary fresh leeks, so they feel that they can catch this last bus and make the last money.
Not everyone can accurately realize the dangers of Jiaozi, and not everyone can remain calm in the face of the hot possibility and desire to make money, and give up Jiaozi in time.
People die for money, and birds die for food. This is the case at all times and in all countries.
So, when this latest batch of leeks took over the hot new Jiaozi, they were shocked to find that they seemed to be unable to find a suitable next home.
