Li Zhaotong never thought that one day he would encounter a bloody plot: the story of a "distressed" scholar who fell in love with a peasant girl.

I won't expand on it here.

In short, Tao Wansan did not cheat, and Li Zhaotong did not cheat, but Li Zhaotong's life is much better than Tao Wansan's.

The middle-aged man couldn't come up with the money, Tao Wansan fell in love with someone's daughter, and in order not to destroy his beautiful love, Tao Wansan admitted defeat.

He needs to come up with money to treat his brother-in-law in his original capacity, so he admits defeat.

Tao Wansan admitted defeat, everything was easy, and Li Zhaotong immediately set off for the capital.

……

The next day, early in the morning, Li Mansion.

"Zhaotong, you're finally back."

After Li Zhaotong greeted the Zhu family, he was having breakfast, and Li Dongming, who got the news, quickly rushed over.

Li Dongming did not live in the Li Mansion, but in other mansions of the Li family, and when he rushed over, he was also in a hurry.

"Fourth uncle, come and dine!"

Li Zhaotong hurriedly invited Li Dongming over for breakfast together, Li Dongming was not polite, took a bowl of hot white fungus red dates and lotus seed soup from the next person, and drank it.

After Li Dongming took a sip of porridge to warm up his body, Li Zhaotong, who didn't care about the rule of eating and sleeping, asked:

"Fourth uncle, what's the situation recently?"

Li Dongming didn't say anything about anything, he replied directly:

"It's more complicated."

"What's the main thing?"

"The main problem is to resettle the displaced people in Tianjinwei." Li Dongming replied.

"Displaced resettlement?"

Li Zhaotong was stunned, isn't this his own business, how can Li Dongming have something to do with this matter.

Seeing Li Zhaotong's puzzled look, Li Dongming immediately understood that Li Zhaotong should not know what was going on, so he explained:

"Zhaotong, for the resettlement of the displaced people, Your Majesty not only gave you a holy decree, but also received a holy decree from the stock exchange, Your Majesty requested that the stock exchange arrange more than five commercial banks to go to Tianjin Wei to open a workshop, and at present, the stock exchange is arguing for these five places."

"Quarrelsome? Why the quarrel? Don't want to go? ”

Emperor Hongzhi did not set an upper limit, only a lower limit, and it is obvious that everyone is unwilling to go to Tianjin Wei.

Li Dongming replied:

"Yes, because His Majesty only gave the mandatory requirements, not any benefits, those businessmen are all the existence of not seeing rabbits and eagles, they are all developing very well in the capital, and they are all unwilling to go, but the holy decree has been received, and it is impossible not to go, so they are all arguing there."

"A bunch of idiots!"

Li Zhaotong couldn't help but scold.

These guys are really stupid, although Emperor Hongzhi did not give visible benefits, but, after the displaced people are settled, can Your Majesty not be happy?

When the time comes, can it be any good?

However, Li Zhaotong misjudged.

Those businessmen are not stupid.

Can people not know that they can get benefits by relocating displaced people and making meritorious contributions?

People know it very well.

Which of these businessmen is not a human spirit?!

If it weren't for the human spirit, it would be impossible to become the spokesperson of various interest groups.

That's right, it's the spokesperson.

Nowadays, the commercial banks listed on the stock exchange have backgrounds behind them, either nobles, ministers, or big families entrenched in one side, real businessmen, there is no such thing!

Because the status of businessmen is too low now, it can be said that it is rare to be able to achieve the level of rice planting on their own.

Even Mi Zhi doesn't know how many officials he bribed in order to barely maintain his family's business from being embezzled.

These people see the benefits, but also the risks.

They are not Li Zhaotong, and they are confident that they will be able to settle those displaced people. They have no confidence in the resettlement of displaced people, because they have been a big problem since ancient times.

Therefore, what these people are most worried about is not that they will lose money if they go to Tianjin Weikai to open a workshop, but that they are most worried that the displaced people will become a burden to them, and even cause the emperor to be angry, thus implicating the forces behind them.

"Fourth uncle, I'll go to the stock exchange with you later, and go to meet the heads of various commercial houses."

Li Dongming was waiting for Li Zhaotong's words, he smiled and said:

"Okay, let's just wait for you, the little god of wealth, to make a move, I have already arranged for someone to go and inform the heads of the various commercial houses before I come."

……

Daming Royal Stock Exchange.

"Li Er!"

Zhu Houzhao came again, and he was still blocking Li Zhaotong at the door.

"Hello Your Highness."

Li Zhaotong was not surprised by Zhu Houzhao's appearance, after all, the princess house basically became Zhu Houzhao's alone, and others couldn't intervene at all, and the princess house was also one of the listed firms, so there was no reason why the news that the princess house got was not passed on to Zhu Houzhao.

"What kind of conspiracy are you going to use to coax them to Tianjinwei? As far as the palace knows, these dogs refused to go to Tianjin Wei, not because they were afraid of losing money, but because they were afraid of delaying the big things of the dog emperor, so they were all afraid to shout to themselves. ”

Zhu Houzhao obviously knew the inside story, and he immediately broke out why the big guy didn't want to go to Tianjin Wei.

"I see." Li Zhaotong knew it in his heart.

……

Soon, Li Zhaotong and Zhu Houzhao came to the large conference room in the back hall together.

"Hello Your Highness! Hello Li Gongzi! ”

"Hello Your Highness! Good little God of Wealth! ”

……

The people who were already waiting here saluted.

Zhu Houzhao smiled and motioned for everyone to return the salute, but Li Zhaotong stood as if he was stupid, without saying a word, not even with an expression.

"Hey, Li Er, don't you say a word?"

Zhu Houzhao is very "clever" and has entered Li Zhaotong's rhythm.

Suddenly, the scene fell silent, because the others were also wondering why Li Zhaotong looked indifferent.

"Huh." Li Zhaotong sneered and replied:

"There's nothing to say, I see their smiling faces, I just feel very sad and ridiculous."

"Oh? What do you say? ”

Zhu Houzhao is definitely a good actor, he already knows in his heart that Li Zhaotong is performing, but he doesn't break it, he is trying his best to cooperate with Li Zhaotong's performance.

"Your Highness, do you remember why I started this stock exchange with you?" Li Zhaotong continued to act.

Zhu Houzhao is also a drama master, he "thought about it carefully", thinking about Li Zhaotong's purpose, he made up a sentence and said:

"Improve the status of businessmen, expand the scale of business, so that people in the world do business without lack of money?"

"That's right, improve the status of businessmen, expand the scale of business, and let people all over the world do business without lack of money!"

The drama spirit Li Zhaotong quickly answered, and then said heartbrokenly:

"But now these businessmen are so disappointed to me, such a great opportunity to improve their status and expand their own scale, but these people are all reluctant to join because of a little risk, which makes me feel sad and ridiculous!"

Speaking of this, Li Zhaotong changed his words and continued to sneer:

"Mencius Yun: Born in sorrow, died in peace. It's really not wrong at all!

These people have forgotten the truth that there is no risk in doing business, and they rely on the stock exchange one by one to make a lot of money, and they are content with the status quo and do not want to forge ahead, but they don't know that the crisis has quietly come.

Because they didn't think that their stock price was actually inflated, in fact, their business bank was not worth so much money at all, and they were all inflated.

Your Highness, you see the way they want to talk and stop talking one by one, I think they want to say that their business house has opened a workshop in the capital and expanded its scale!

However, these fools are not counted, even if their own business house opens a workshop in the capital and expands its scale, it is not worth the current stock price!

It's still inflated!

And the inflated is terrible!

Not many people should be aware of this now, so everyone is doing well, but when someone finds out about this, it spreads, causing panic, and everyone sells the stocks they hold, at that time, I'm afraid it will be completely finished!

Disaster strikes!

Stock market crash!

It will never be worse than a plague of locusts!

I thought that at that time, the merchant should not want to improve his status! At that time, the imperial court will definitely implement the most stringent policy of heavy agriculture and suppression of commerce, and everyone will die together! ”

"Li Gongzi, what should I do then?"

"Little God of Wealth, give me a way!"

"Your Highness, let Li Gongzi think of a way!"

……

Everyone was frightened by Li Zhaotong's words, because they calculated in their hearts that the stock price of their own firm was indeed seriously inflated, so they all fidgeted.
