It was the eve of the dawn of a weekday, it was still dark, the cold wind was shivering, and No. 7 Victory Avenue in New Tonia City was already crowded with people.

The aisles and streets were crowded with people, some chatting around the campfire, others looking desperately drunk.

Judging by the tents, braziers, beer bottles, sleeping bags, and the tiredness and bags under the eyes of people, many people simply stay up all night.

It's one of the most prosperous shopping streets in New Tonya City, and the Bank Street, behind the stone lions, is the only two stock exchanges in the city.

No. 7, a stock exchange in New Tonia City, is responsible for the trading of securities in major churches, legal persons, enterprises, and units registered in the city, and is also the target of most people.

Number 8 is also a stock exchange, but most of the stocks listed are the shares of some very large churches, most of which are names that the people of New Tonia have not heard of, and they are quite common, except for the Oak Son and the Griffin Griffin, which are new names that the roots of the inhabitants of this place have not likely heard.

No. 7 is similar to a domestic (city) exchange, while No. 8 is an international (Pan An Soraine) exchange.

And because the ups and downs here are too ungraspable, and the fluctuation range is too small (relative to the next door), there is a foil to the No. 7 store, and it is basically deserted.

But now, even outside the door of Building 8, there is a crowd of people.

Considering yesterday's business, even if Stock Exchange Seven is open, those dozens of windows will not be able to cope at all, and it may not be possible to buy and sell shares of other churches here, but the shares of Oak Son and Griffin Griffin can also be sold here.

And now in the Eighth Chamber, General Ullett Dale of the Griffin Griffin and Bishop Gillett of the Oak are deliberating, and behind them are equally ugly-looking aides and experts.

Don't think that the victims in the stock market crash are only retail stockholders, those enterprises and churches that have plummeted have lost their foundation and wealth, and in just one and a half days, the wealth of the two seventh-level churches has evaporated out of thin air.

It's not that they underestimate the purchasing power of the inhabitants here, but if hundreds of thousands of people are crazy about all the ownership, that terrible amount of ownership has benefited the two churches over the years.

They were also simply blinded by the stock market crash, and they didn't even have time to react.

"When the door opens, our stock will fall wildly, the headquarters has gone crazy, and issued twelve instructions in one night, and if it falls again, I'm afraid I will jump off the building with those stockholders." ”

Gillet's heart was a little tired, the son of oak had already decided to retreat, the original bishop had been transferred, he was only temporarily promoted, and when this happened, his political career was over.

And General Ullett, who was opposite him, had an ugly face.

It's not that he's worried that he won't be able to hand over to the headquarters, he is a military dispatch for the re-employment of the imperial general, and he is also the highest military commander of the city some time ago, in the eyes of the imperial high-level, his identity is even on the same level as his god, and the headquarters can't hold him accountable at all, but.......

“....... My pension. ”

Short words, but endless sighs.

The main reason why he accepted reemployment was that he was too chic and didn't save much money back then, and now he is watching the stock market explode every day, how can he not be moved.

In fact, he didn't finish some words, he not only threw all his pension into it, but also borrowed a lot of money from his colleagues, and now if you convert it, I'm afraid he can't afford to pay it for a hundred years.

If the bishop on the other side is worried that he will be forced to go to the rooftop, the old general is really thinking about whether it is more comfortable to go to the rooftop or work day jobs until he dies of old age.

In a sense, Ash's churches were put together in a way that underestimated the wealth of the wasteland, the affluent families of the new era that arose here, the impact of economic fluctuations, and the waves brought about by the political changes in Corner City.

"It's too fast, it's too fast, how can it be so fast, one night the corner city changes color, and one night the rumors are flying all over the sky. ”

But from another point of view, the two bigwigs are responsible, if given to an experienced manager, maybe be able to anticipate this situation and make targeted preparation plans.

Even if something happens, we will adjust and respond as soon as possible, rather than urgently discussing behind closed doors when things get to this point.

But who called them a pure soldier, and one was a 10,000-year-old deputy of subjective academic affairs, and the level of financial knowledge of the two was probably the same as that of Rorschach - about equal to zero.

They discussed it for half a night, but there was still no decent solution.

The only way is probably to choose between not opening the door, or if the door is opened, or not trading.

Even if the experts behind them repeatedly remind them that this will only make the market lose confidence even more, make everyone more obsessed with exchanging stocks, further exacerbate the harm of the stock market crash, and may even cause riots and mutinies in the whole city.

They don't care anymore, they have no other way, and for them, the responsibility to continue to let the stock of the headquarters plummet is more serious than abandoning the area.

Even if the situation is serious, it is possible to directly delist and ban trading, which may be equivalent to credit bankruptcy, but even if it is bankrupt here, other regions may not know about it.

At this time, their mood is still heavy.

They are not only worried about their own future, everyone has feelings, they have been here for so many years, they also have a good impression of the warm and friendly Seymour people, and now that the situation has developed to this point, how can they feel better.

"Boom!"

And the sudden explosion attracted everyone's attention.

"Has someone broken in? It's not business yet?"

"Security, Guards, Human Wall!"

In the midst of the panic, everyone was busy, but the two bishops saw a familiar person, a smile that made people scratch.

"Economic life has its own laws, you don't need to understand everything, you don't need to make everything look prosperous, the only thing you need to pay attention to is whether you can get the most benefits at which node....... The market has collapsed here, what's the matter, with your little capital, you still plan to save the market and fill the bottomless pit?"

Saviara's idea was the complete opposite of Rorschach's from the beginning.

Why do you want to save the city? What good is it to save the city? Will they be grateful to you, or will they be grateful to the city? They will only resent the city that they almost had nothing, and they will be angry at what they have lost in this storm.

They don't tell what's going on, they just complain about the city's managers and controllers........ Isn't the government responsible for carrying the blame from the moment it was born?

"First of all, we're going to be in the right place, we're still just a game church, a small and medium-sized church that ranks fifth in the local area, a victim of a stock market crash, a victim of the same camp of the unemployed outside, a hapless guy who was forced to take over this mess. Instead of being stupid to stand on the cusp at this time, and then become the one who bears the blame for the root of all evil........ Someone has to pay for all this, but it shouldn't be us. ”

So, Rorschach arrived, and with a strange smile he found the two Grand Church leaders at the helm.

"You two really make it easy for me to find........ Ahem, time is running out, do you want to make a deal? an illegal deal that could save you and me, and even the city. ”
