Chapter 265: Exchange
The scorching sun was scorching at noon, and there was no slightest breeze, so hot that Hu Xueyan's forehead was full of beads, but at the door of this public bond market, he sat thirty or fifty in, and he didn't care about the burning fire, so he was shouting something
And there are more people sitting in the shade, just Hu Xueyan saw the entrance, there are enough hundreds of people to enter, when did Taizhou Mansion have so many idle enters, and many of them are still gentlemen wearing melon skin hats.
Everyone was there talking to each other, and Liu Zhiyuan was walking in front to lead the way, while saying: "These are the idle people who do peripheral entry and collect public debts, and there are a little more today!" ”
"Tooth line?"
"It's almost, but there is no forced buying and selling, sometimes the price is fairer than the inside, but it is indeed a little more today!" Liu Zhiyuan shouted loudly while leading the way: "How to calculate the market in the exchange today?" ”
"It's five-three-seven just now!" A fat man said loudly, "Is it in stock?" I will receive your goods according to five-three-seven, and trade with cash."
"Damn! It was only four or seven o! Liu Zhiyuan scolded repeatedly: "My stinky luck, the goods I shipped before are only four hundred and sixty-two!" ”
The gap between 462 and 537 is indeed a lot, Hu Xueyan remembers that Liu Zhiyuan received the goods from 37, and shipped 46, although he made a fortune, but he shipped too early, and as a result, he made a lot of money.
It's just that when they went inside, they saw a signboard hanging in the house inside: "Zhejiang Industrial Bank Taizhou Exchange!" ”
"Isn't it the bond market?" Hu Xueyan was a little puzzled: "Why is it called an exchange?" ”
Liu Zhiyuan told him one more point: "The public bond market is an exchange, in which all goods are bought and sold, silver yuan, silver taels, money, rice, flour, salt, you can buy whatever you want, you can sell whatever you want, but the problem is that the most important variety of this exchange is public bonds!" ”
Looking inside, it is a big house, but it is such a big house, but it seems to be very crowded, it is completely a relationship between too many people, Hu Xueyan roughly estimated, there are at least hundreds of people in this exchange, and the transaction of public bonds is placed in the middle hall of the house, and many people are constantly talking there, and some are sticking notes on the blackboard.
Over there, Liu Zhiyuan pointed out to him: "That is the place to collect contraband, these things are contraband in Taizhou Mansion, only Hongjun is allowed to buy, not to buy and sell privately, if you have such contraband, Hongjun will be rewarded!" ”
"It's all arms?"
"Everything related to the national economy and people's livelihood is, for example, foreign guns, foreign cannons, lead, gunpowder, military uniforms, and sulfur, which cannot be bought and sold privately, unless they are given to the Hongjun."
Hu Xueyan kept this in his hand: "The profit is not low, right? ”
"Huge profits, absolute profits, if Lao Tzu has the door of the shopkeeper, he will definitely close the rice industry and concentrate on this business, and he will be able to return to his capital in half a month!"
Hu Xueyan paid attention to the details of this exchange, the people standing guard were all old red thieves, not to mention the white belts around their waists, and many old red thieves also had revolvers pinned to their waists.
And the whole exchange looks full of copper smell, but in the eyes of a businessman like Hu Xueyan, who has risen from a young man, he is no longer kind, and he pays attention to many details.
He struggled from a small guy to a successful business with hundreds of thousands of big businesses, and naturally there is a way to success, and he has memorized many details that he has not paid attention to.
Liu Jiehu is really a top thief, and he actually came up with such a method, which can really be said to be the only thief since the Han and Tang Dynasties!
However, Wang Youling and He Guiqing want to raise military expenses, so they can naturally use the method of red thieves, and it is naturally very useful to write down these details by themselves. It's just that the next moment someone came in to greet Liu Zhiyuan: "Lao Liu, you are also here, the market is really good today!" ”…,
Liu Zhiyuan shipped it before he died, and he couldn't help sighing: "What is a good market method?" ”
"It's five or six just now!"
"Five or six?" Liu Zhiyuan gasped: "Liu Jiehu took down Jinhua Mansion, it was only four or seven yesterday, how can it rise to five or six in one breath, damn it, I shipped the goods before!" ”
"There is no movement in Jinhua Mansion, there is no attack on the Liu inspection point, and Shi Jingfen is not attacked, the two sides sit in silence and do not fight, so it will hurt our group of people watching the show!"
Hu Xueyan has already understood, the market of public bonds is determined according to the battle situation of the Rainbow Army, if the Rainbow Army wins the battle, then the possibility of cashing in is greater, and it will naturally rise all the way, if the Rainbow Army is defeated in front of the formation, then it can only go down, with the current situation in Zhejiang, it seems that the government cannot issue public bonds.
The person who greeted Liu Zhiyuan over there was a rich man in the countryside, and he was wearing a melon skin hat and asked Liu Zhiyuan, "Who is this?" ”
"The shopkeeper of Hangzhou Mansion! Come to our Taizhou to explore the water! Shopkeeper Hu, this is Mr. Shen Yaoshi! ”
"Mr. Death!"
"Shopkeeper Hu!"
Over there, Liu Zhiyuan had already asked about the details: "Since there is no movement in Jinhua Mansion, why has the public debt risen by 90 points?" Unreasonable, unreasonable! ”
Shen Yao knew the inside story: "You don't know o, the whole bond market knows, a Western three-masted ship came to Panshi Village, carrying a ship of foreign guns and foreign guns, it is said that there are as many as 1,000 foreign guns alone!" ”
Hu Xueyan naturally understood that although the foreign guns and foreign cannons fell into the hands of the red thieves, although they could not change the actual situation of the battle, but they greatly enhanced the combat effectiveness of the red thieves, but when he thought of He Guiqing's preparations for foreign guns and foreign guns in Shanghai, he had only purchased more than 2,000 foreign guns, and most of the foreign guns had not yet arrived, Hu Xueyan became a little pessimistic.
Liu Zhiyuan didn't believe what Shen Yao said: "How is this possible, just a shipload of arms can rise by 90 points?" ”
"This shipload of arms is a real thing, and now the price of foreign guns has dropped by five points!"
"The Hongjun also accompanies foreign guns and foreign artillery?" Hu Xueyan immediately asked, "Mr. Shen, I came to explore the water, but I don't know the inside story. ”
"Of course, you will go with you, unless you are a big deal like Duke de Muns, and you can transport a whole shipload of arms at a time, and the Liu Inspection will ensure that you make money."
Hu Xueyan now glanced at the exchange twice, and he found that there were not only Taizhou in this exchange, but also a few familiar faces in this exchange, all of which were solid merchants in Ningbo, Hangzhou, Shaoxing and other places, but he didn't expect to be robbed by them.
He couldn't help but sigh again, this Liu Jiehu can no longer be described by looking at the thief, looking at the momentum of his exchange to gather wealth, he can only say that the four words of the enemy country are the chieftain, don't underestimate him because he only has three mansions and twenty-five counties.
Over there, Liu Zhiyuan asked again: "In addition to this munition, there must be enough news, right?" ”
"Hmm!" Shen Yaoshi said with a smile: "Lu Ziyun won a great victory in Fujian, annihilated more than 1,000 Min Yong, and captured hundreds of foreign guns!" ”
"Isn't Lu Ziyun guarding the state?"
"It's guarding the state, but Min Yong swaggered across the border with a foreign gun, and he was embarrassed not to eat it!" Shen Yao said with a smile: "It is crisp and neat, and now it has returned to Chuzhou." ”
Liu Zhiyuan said repeatedly: "No wonder, no wonder! Message really? ”
Hu Xueyan didn't understand the suspension, and Liu Zhiyuan immediately explained it to him.
Now among the three prefectures of the Hongjun Console, Lu Ziyun's Prefecture Mansion is the weakest link, but he has to face the pressure of the entire Fujian Province, so many people are not optimistic that Lu Ziyun can defend the Prefecture Mansion. ..., but the news from today shows that Lu Ziyun's troops are combative, not only able to defend, but also to attack, and they have entered Fujian Province with a thousand crisp and neat killings, annihilating more than 1,000 Fujian troops, and calmly returning to the state capital with hundreds of foreign guns.
In this case, Lu Ziyun's success in holding the state capital has increased greatly, so the public bond market has skyrocketed by 90 points all the way because of the stimulation of these two news, and the public bond with a face value of 100 silver yuan can now be exchanged for 56 silver yuan.
Liu Zhiyuan regretted it very much: "One thought is equivalent to another half a year of hard work!" ”
Hu Xueyan was concerned about the news from Fujian, and he asked enthusiastically: "Is this news accurate?" ”
"Exactly!" Shen Yao told Hu Xueyan: "If you are well-informed, I am afraid that the entire Taizhou government will not be able to find a more well-informed place than our exchange, many times, we get the news first, Commander Xian and the Kochi government only got the news afterwards, we have some big businesses, in Jinhua, Chuzhou, and even Ningbo, Hangzhou, Fuzhou have arranged to visit the newspaper, as soon as there is news, it will be transmitted non-stop." ”
Hu Xueyan was puzzled at first, but later understood that this public bond market eats the bowl of rice with news, and if you get the news early, you can make hundreds of thousands of dollars more. ”
The word forcible entry represents a kind of status, Hu Xueyan looked at it, but saw a lot of familiar figures, although some of them did not know, but since he had an impression, it also showed that it was not a weightless entry.
There were several long-term followers around these big things, all of whom were scribbling and writing there with Western quills, and from time to time they exchanged words, so he asked, "What weight do you need to get to that position?" ”
Shen Yao immediately drooled: "In that position, it's not something that can be done with money, you have to force those people to enter the joint guarantee, but that position has endless benefits, how can those people put it in more!" ”
"What's in it for you?"
"For example, if the bank's shopkeeper wants to collect public bonds from the market, he will first find them to collect them, and he will give priority to them when he usually borrows funds.
Hu Xueyan has already understood, this is the rule of the Western Exchange: "As long as a few people force into the joint guarantee, it will be fine?" ”
