Thirty-six plans, go for the top!

Yao Daqiao didn't dare to play anymore, so he quickly found the account room to settle the accounts and settle the accounts - in fact, it was to calculate the net assets, Yao Daqiao didn't dare to ask for a premium, and gave Zhu Cihuan a nine-percent discount, and finally took away 180,000 taels of silver.

After going through the transfer procedures at the exchange (according to the regulations, the changes in the shares of the member bank must be supervised by the exchange), Yao Daqiao immediately went to sell the house - not to sell the house and then enter the stock market, but to sell the stock and the house, ready to run away.

Yao Papi's house in Shanghai had to be sold first, and then he had to go back to Hankou, where he also had to find someone to take over half of the street...... After selling the properties in Shanghai and Hankou at low prices, the money obtained plus the cash on hand totaled nearly 400,000 taels of silver!

That's a lot of money!

If you go through the remittance channel of two banks, Pacific Bank (a subsidiary bank jointly initiated by the Maritime Commercial Bank and the Salt Commercial Bank), not only will you have to post a handling fee, but it will also be easy to find out. The American Mansion on the other side of the ocean is also the world of the Zhu family!

As for transporting cash silver, it was not only too dangerous, but also impossible to reap the benefits of trade between the two sides of the Pacific.

So after thinking about it again and again, Yao Daqiao finally chose iron, copper, and lead, three "war metals", as trade goods. He used the name of his fellow Hubei countryman Ye Jiaxin to rent a few ships in Shanghai that could run the Pacific Ocean, loaded them with iron, copper, and lead worth 300,000 taels of silver, as well as tens of thousands of silver coins, and finally took his family with him, and was ready to leave.

Today is the 20th day of December in the thirteenth year of Hongxing, which is the coldest time of the year.

Most of the Yao family has already boarded a 600-ton (deadweight) class "Pacific sailing ship" and is waiting for the wind to be suitable for sailing.

The "Pacific Sailing" is a modified Chinese sailing ship that does not sail fast, but the hull is sturdy and the crew is not much, so the cost is low. This time, Yao Daqiao rented four such Pacific sailing ships from the Beiyang Shipping Company, which is subordinate to the head office of the Shenjiasha Boat Gang, and now all of them are parked on the Wusong River.

Yao Daqiao himself did not board the ship, because he was seasick and dizzy, so he did not like life on the boat, so he and his little wife rented a room in a luxury hotel on Bund Street. Today, when he came out of the hotel and was walking by the Wusong River, he walked into a crowded stock store like a ghost......

As soon as he entered, he heard someone shouting in a crying voice: "Fall, fall, fall!" ”

Fall? Fell again? Is the emperor's pension money still there?

Thinking of this, Yao Daqiao was trembling. He hurriedly looked around, and the lobby of a very spacious stock store was crowded with small households with weeping faces at this time...... Half of them are still wearing short clothes.

Here in Shanghai, merchants, officials, and wealthy peasants generally wore long robes when they went out, and only those who worked hard, did small labor, or poor peasants wore short clothes to the streets. But why did these people come to the stock market?

Yao Daqiao leaned in with the people in short clothes, and then made some observations, and found several faces that had turned black from frequent sun exposure and were twisted into a ball, full of chagrin and remorse!

At this time, the short-clothed men began to complain to each other.

"Alas, it fell again...... My wife is about to fall! ”

"Yes, I lost another five taels of silver today...... I had to work for nothing for two more months. ”

"Haishang Bank! How can such a big bank fall? ”

"Isn't the Beiyang ship big? It's the same fall! ”

"Isn't an official bank also falling?"

"Alas, these in your hands have not fallen much, and my United States stocks are miserable! Three months ago, when it was worth more than 4,000 shares, now there are only 1,500 left...... I bought a penny of shares and lost more than 20 taels! What can I do? ”

A penny? Lose more than 20 taels...... Yao Daqiao said: These profiteers have played stock splitting to the point of splitting a hundred? It's so unbelievable!

Thousands of taels per share, one split ten, the threshold for entry is several hundred taels. Those who can produce this number are all big households, and they just lose some spare money.

But if it is demolished, the threshold will drop to tens of taels......

"What to do? Let's go farming in the Americas...... One cent of shares can also be exchanged for 10 acres of land. ”

At this time, there was another discussion.

"What are you kidding? How much does it cost to get a ticket to the Americas? Besides, you can't get a penny out! You can't cut a stock into a hundred, can you? ”

"Then buy some more and get a share!"

"How can I make it up, I have to get more than a thousand taels!"

Yao Daqiao sighed softly, thinking: It's good that I ran fast, otherwise I'm afraid I would have to work in vain.

He quietly moved again, left the short-shirted men, and leaned over to a few middle-aged men dressed as gentry on the side.

"It's over, the land is gone, the house is gone, it's gone, the family is going to drink the northwest wind!"

"Brother Wang, don't you still have two shares of the United States? Why don't you go to the Americas House and exchange 2,000 acres of land! ”

"Alas! People buy stocks to make a fortune, but I'm good, buy stocks and buy myself thousands of miles away......"

Yao Daqiao thought to himself: Me too!

At this time, someone suddenly cried, and he was also a middle-aged man who looked like a gentry.

"Woo...... It's all stocks that hurt people! My good 300 acres of paddy fields are gone, all are gone, and I am going to jump the Wusong River! ”

"Brother Zhizhen, where did you come from? You also have United States stocks in your hands, right? It's a big deal to go to the House of the Americas. ”

"What to go...... I have long ago pledged the shares of the United States in my hand to the bank to borrow money to increase my position, and now I have lost everything, and there is nothing! ”

"Brother Zhizhen, you must want to open a little!"

"yes, yes, don't do anything stupid!"

"Stay in the green mountains, don't be afraid of no firewood......"

The people around persuaded him, Yao Daqiao sighed, turned around and walked out of the stock store, and when he arrived at the door, he suddenly heard someone shouting: "Something is wrong, something is wrong, Chongqing stock is down!" ”

"What? Chongqing stock bank also fell? Isn't that the king of Chongqing open? ”

"What's so strange? Chongqing's stock market has always been very wild, and it took the lead in splitting 100 shares, and it also lent money in violation of regulations......"

"I heard that this Chongqing bank has also signed agreements with many large households to guarantee income, and the internal chaos is also a mess, so it's strange!"

Yao Daqiao's heart chuckled, and his legs and stomach began to tremble.

When he handed over the Chongqing trip, he knew that something bad was going to happen...... There are too many traitors in this business, and it is not something that stupid prince can play with at all.

Now that Chongqing has fallen, I don't know if the prince has lost all the emperor's pension money?

If you lose it all......

Yao Daqiao hurriedly took a step and walked towards the hotel where he was staying - check out and get on the boat! Wait for the wind to pick up and leave, never to come back!

......

Zhu Cihuan was sitting stupidly in his residence in Shanghai at this time, not knowing what to do. The residence was rented by him, not purchased. He did not listen to Emperor Chongzhen's words to buy land and build a house in Shanghai, and did not even redeem his palace, and even transferred his 5,000 acres of royal land in the way of a "long contract", and then invested all the money in the Chongqing stock bank......

The investment of more than 300,000 taels before and after only bought him eight months of scenery, which is really beautiful!

He still remembers the days before the stock market crashed, when the Chongqing stock market was really prosperous, and the net assets on the books were once as high as more than 700,000 taels! It can be ranked in the top 10 among many stock banks in Shanghai.

And because he is the prince, there are a lot of rich businessmen and tycoons who want to do business with him everywhere. When the maritime and salt merchant houses slammed the Chongqing bank (it was Zhu Cihong's order), the owners of those small and medium-sized money banks even begged to lend him money...... At that time, the total value of the funds and stocks he could control was as high as more than two million taels, which was simply rich to rival the country!

But no one expected that after more than two consecutive months of decline, his Chongqing stock bank would lose all the principal, and he was so tired that he owed a lot of debt.

What can I do?
