The historical impact of this stock market crash in the autumn of the seventh year of Xuanping is very profound, but the interesting thing is that such a stock market crash did not cause a large-scale economic crisis, resulting in a large-scale contraction of industry and commerce!

Why, because the listed companies are all garbage companies, a group of speculators playing drums and passing flowers, and they have nothing to do with ordinary people, let alone the hundreds of relatively large enterprises that support major industries and commerce.

Because of the hundreds of more important companies in the Tang Dynasty, most of them have not been listed!

Those speculators hyped up a piece of junk and the company lost or earned, it's their business!

Of course, what is more important is that this matter was discovered early, and as soon as Li Xuan found out about it, he dealt with it decisively, and directly called the power of Han Tong, and directly suppressed it vigorously.

Let this stock speculation be limited to the scope of speculators, and has not been widely extended to the general public.

Although there will inevitably be some impacts, they are all under control!

In addition, the real economy of the Tang Dynasty is in a period of rapid growth, and the economic data in all aspects is getting better and better day by day.

Therefore, this stock market crash, in addition to leaving people with the concept of investment risk, and greatly stimulated part of the spirit, has little impact on the real economy.

However, now with the regularization of stock trading, many large enterprises are also preparing to go public and trade one after another, and the next time there is a stock market crash, it will not be a speculative bubble, but a real economic crisis.

In modern times, the main cause of the economic crisis is not simply speculation or anything like that, speculation and stock collapse are just appearances, but the actual cause is overcapacity, which is more accurate to say 'overcapacity relative to the ability to pay!' ’

To put it simply: when people can't afford to buy things, then it's an economic crisis!

However, now it seems that the problem is not too big, first of all, the industry and commerce of the Tang Dynasty have actually just started, the overall scale of the industrial and commercial economy is not large, the country's economy is still dominated by agriculture, and the proportion of the secondary industry and the tertiary industry is not large.

At the same time, the base of the Tang Dynasty is large enough, the land area is large, the population is large, and all kinds of resources are rich except for a few special resources.

This also means that the industrial and commercial development of the Tang Dynasty needs to develop for a long time before the domestic market can be initially saturated, and later, there is the global market.

What is an economic crisis?

It's just that there are no raw materials or products can't be sold!

But for the colonial era, both of these problems could be preliminarily solved, conquering more colonies and then making them dumping markets for raw materials and industrial products.

When necessary, strictly control the industrial manufacturing of the colonies except for the native land, so as to fully protect the interests of the local industry!

In this way, we can also avoid the situation in history that the United States turned from a colony to become the master!

The reason why the United States was able to turn over at the beginning was not because the British were stupid and directly established many factories in North America, which led to a great contradiction between the factory owners in North America and the local manufacturing industry of the British.

It is more troublesome to completely put an end to the demands of the colonies for independence, and throughout the hundreds of years of colonial history in modern times, in the end, colonial independence is a general trend and cannot be avoided.

However, what Li Xuan seeks is to delay the arrival of this process as much as possible, even if the colony seeks independence, it must be able to be easily suppressed!

Therefore, in the future, Li Xuan's positioning of all colonies will be the supply of raw materials and the dumping of products, and he will definitely not develop industries in the colonies!

And then there is continuous immigration and re-immigration, relying on the huge population advantage to crush, if in the future, the Tang Dynasty colonizes North America, Li Xuan will definitely carry out a large number of immigration, and finally let the people of the Tang Dynasty become the new masters of North American land, and absolutely do not engage in any policy of multi-ethnic harmony.

Everywhere the people of the Tang Dynasty go, it is the land of the Tang Dynasty!

Where did the original natives of these lands end up?

Excuse me, you say indigenous? This problem is very unpleasant, because of the large-scale infection of smallpox and other foreign germs, they have disappeared from this world, no, there are still indigenous people, you see, in order to protect them, we have also set up a special reserve.

You see, the place is big enough, three square kilometers, and we also provided them with houses and walls for free, so that they can live freely and happily within the walls, avoiding many threats from the outside world.

What a humane protection measure, every corner of the reserve exudes the brilliance of humanity!

Well, large-scale colonization is a matter of the future, but Li Xuan can already imagine this magnificent scene!

The road on which the sun never sets in the Tang Empire was built in the process of colonization and sinicization.

And now, the Tang Dynasty has already started this road!

When the Liaodong Battle was quietly launched, the Sixth Army entered Shanhaiguan, and fought with the Liaodong Ming Army of the pseudo-Ming Hui King, a ship was full of simple repair traces, even the sails were patched with seams, and the merchant ship with the flag of the Datang Western Company also slowly sailed into the Wusong Naval Wharf in Shanghai!

At the beginning, the naval patrol ships in the naval base were still a little puzzled about the direct entry of this 680 merchant ship carrying the Datang Western Company into the naval base.

Because Wusong Port is not a commercial port, but a pure naval port, it is also the largest and most professional naval port of the Datang Navy, and it is also the headquarters of the First Fleet.

In normal times, no merchant ships will come here, even if it is the merchant ship of Datang Western Company, Datang Western Company, they themselves have their own exclusive wharves in Guangzhou and Shanghai.

However, after the patrol ship approached and inspected, the people on board showed the relevant documents of the officers of the Military Intelligence Department, and bluntly said that the Military Intelligence Department had requisitioned the 680 merchant ship of the Tang Western Company to carry out the mission, and they had vital intelligence to report.

This merchant ship is the Jinyuan, which has been traveling overseas for more than a year, and the leader of the team is Wang Shanxi, an intelligence officer of the Military Intelligence Department.

After Wang Shanxi and the others returned to the Mian Lao Island Trade Station before, they rested and replenished, and after a simple repair, they continued to return non-stop, because they had to take advantage of the last wave of the southwest monsoon in autumn to return, otherwise they would miss the monsoon, and the follow-up return voyage would either wait until next year, or sail all the way against the wind, and neither of these was acceptable to him.

Taking advantage of the last wave of the monsoon, they successfully arrived at the port of Wusong, and after arriving at the wharf, Wang Shanxi ignored the fatigue of the journey and directly asked to meet with the local military intelligence officer.

After seeing some of the documents and the holy decree presented by Wang Shanxi, the officers of the Military Intelligence Department stationed in the local area did not know what task Wang Shanxi and the others had carried out, but they knew that this was a task personally ordered by His Majesty, and they should not be neglected.

Immediately, he sent someone to accompany Wang Shanxi and others, transferred to the navy's inland river transport boat, and prepared to go to Jinling along the Yangtze River.

Although he didn't have time to stay on land for a day, he set off in a hurry again, but Wang Shanxi's spirit was very good!

Because this time, he came back with the good news of the discovery of Australia and the gold mines, and he could already predict what a huge reward he would receive when he returned to Jinling City, and he would be promoted to become rich, which was a must!

Although the Navy's inland river communication boats, because the boats are relatively small and the ride is very bumpy, it is a high probability event for ordinary people to sit on them and vomit, but their speed is much faster than that of ordinary merchant ships.

And for Wang Shanxi, who has been riding the wind and waves on the sea for more than a year and has experienced countless storms and rains in the vast sea, the bumps of this inland river transportation boat are nothing.

The speed of the traffic boat is very fast, and the wind direction is just right in the past two days, although it is against the current, but the speed is not slow.

Of course, in terms of overall speed, it is still not as good as galloping on land, but galloping horses are more tired, although Wang Shanxi has sent the secret fold back to Jinling through the three-hundred-mile expedited process, but these people chose to take a boat to Jinling.

A few days later, before Wang Shanxi arrived in Jinling, Li Xuan had already received a secret letter written by Wang Shanxi from the Military Intelligence Department.

Wang Shanxi, to be honest, Li Xuan couldn't remember who he was, this person was just an ordinary middle-level intelligence officer in the Military Intelligence Department, and his military rank was only a major in the army.

And at that time, when he gave the order to find Australia, he did not directly find him, but directly ordered the Military Intelligence Department to arrange people.

But this is not important, the important thing is that Wang Shanxi and others have successfully found what they call Australia, and they also attached a copy of the logbook and the chart.

Li Xuan compared it, that is, he successfully restored the route of their voyagers, they first went to Banten, then turned east, the first time they tried to sail south near Bali, they failed, and then continued to sail back, and the second departure was to continue east, all the way to New Guinea, and then sailed south again, and finally went to northern Australia.

It's a good thing, a great thing, to find Australia.

Although most of Australia is barren, the southeast of Australia is a good place to live, and Australia is also very suitable for animal husbandry, not to mention, there are rich mineral resources.

Even if it is difficult to develop now, but colonization, whether it is useful or not, take it first!

Not to mention, they also found a gold mine, regardless of the size of this gold mine, but it can be used as an important support point for the early colonization of Australia.

Nothing is more attractive to people than gold!
