"Your Majesty, Han Guang reported that he, along with several other banks and our company, have purchased a total of 50,000 shares of Mississippi Corporation. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

Feng Xu, the general manager of the Imperial Bank, said.

"How many shares were issued?"

His Majesty the Emperor, who was standing on the deck of the Great Eastern, said.

At this time, this giant cruise ship has basically completed the decoration, because it belongs to the navy, so the exterior also adopts the standard livery of the naval battleship, that is, red under the waterline, black on the waterline, white superstructure, chimney and mast are yellow Victorian, there are also double dragons playing with pearls in the bow, and three twin four-inch turrets are installed at the front and rear, using the latest rapid-fire guns, that is, Armstrong tube retreats, and the newly built Daming battleships will all use rapid-fire guns.

In addition, there are a large number of rotary tube guns and machine guns in the middle.

Although it is not a battleship, these armaments are also indispensable, after all, this is the seat of His Majesty the Emperor, and in Emperor Yang's plan, this yacht often needs to sail without escort, so that the combat capability of a single ship cannot be too bad, in fact, twelve four-inch rapid-fire guns are already the bottom line that the cabinet can tolerate, and in their opinion, it must at least reach the level of a battleship. Of course, these weapons are the same as those of this giant ship, all of which are controlled by young and beautiful female soldiers, who have now begun to enter service after years of training, and will then sail this giant ship for long-distance training, and they will have to train for at least more than a year before they can really carry their beloved Emperor on the voyage.

"A total of 200,000 shares were issued, and the price per share is 500 livres, but this depends on the situation, and it is not ruled out that additional issues will continue to be issued in the future."

Feng Xu said.

"Then why not buy more?"

Yang Feng said.

As he spoke, he also looked at the young female soldiers in front of him, and the latter obviously felt the emperor's gaze, and all of them were red and a little at a loss with excitement.

"They don't sell, we buy these stocks with dragon yuan, they obviously want to use this to get gold and silver, and they look for us to buy, just to pull up the stock price, we buy more, after the stock price is raised, the final profit is more than them." To put it bluntly, they just want to give out these 50,000 shares, in exchange for letting us help them pit domestic investors, now Philip V is in urgent need of gold and silver, and they are ready to imitate our system and issue a large number of paper money on the gold standard, but the Bank of France does not have much gold and silver in its hands, and Philip V and John Law are now counting on this Mississippi company. ”

Feng Xu said.

"The King of France, the Minister of Finance of France, the Governor of the Central Bank, and a group of foreign capitalists have teamed up to design a scam to trap the common people of their country, which is really interesting!"

Yang Feng said with a smile.

"In that case, then help them again, tell Qi Tai, let them take the French to find out the super gold, silver and copper associated mine, and let the Jinshan side contact the Yin tribe there, try not to let them attack the French first, tell the Yin people, they will do it when I need them to do it, now, try to let the French people see the light of gold."

He continued.

Now the Indians in western North America have accepted the saying that those Ming merchants are from the kingdom of God, and with all kinds of trade, including slaves, the relationship with the Ming is very good, and even many Indians have been invited to the Ming, after they go back, the myth of Emperor Yang is spread around, and now it is not difficult to let the Indians do something trivial, anyway, it is to give a face for the time being, and the French will arrive in large numbers in the future, even if the Indians don't want to, he still has to encourage them to fight!

Yang Feng's goal is actually one, that is, to make this late Mississippi company, as in the original history, push the French economy into the abyss of collapse.

Voltaire: These people are not enough.

As long as the French economy does not collapse, no matter how they publicize, it is impossible for the fire to sweep through France, after all, at this time, the French people are a little tired, but not to the point where they can't survive, especially those middle class, although the ideology yearns for freedom and equality and natural human rights, but the action is still very conservative, only when the French economy collapses, and then countless people go bankrupt, the fire can be burned, the worse the French economy, the more the fire burns.

The Mississippi Company had the best chance to drain France's wealth.

As for how to play......

"Blow, blow this bubble hard!"

Far away in Paris, not far from the Mississippi Company, Han Guang sat in his carriage and muttered to himself insidiously as he watched the French crowd like crazy to subscribe for shares.

He and several major consortia in Paris bought a large amount of shares of the Mississippi company, which completely detonated the enthusiasm of French private investors for this company, and now the whole of France people who still have a little money in their hands are rushing to this company, and the stock price is soaring at a terrifying speed, and the stock price of 500 livres has become a joke in just a few days, and now it is more than 2,000, which means that now the 50,000 shares in their hands can make three times the profit as long as they sell them.

But they won't throw.

Because it's still early!

It is said that the line set by His Majesty the Emperor himself must rise to ten thousand livres, and the thought of this figure makes his eyes full of pity when he looks at the Frenchmen.

In fact, unlike the Mississippi company that was purely a scam in the original history, this time Philip V and John Law really wanted to establish a modern monetary system, after all, with the Ming Imperial Bank in front, everyone understood the benefits of this monetary system, especially for Philip V, who was financially strapped and desperately needed large sums of money to maintain a luxurious life and expand his army. It's just that they don't have enough gold and silver in their hands to maintain credit, and it is not difficult to issue paper money, but it is difficult to make the people accept it, there are no thousands of tons of gold underground in Versailles, and it takes time to develop gold and silver mines in the Americas, so they have to take such measures. They received a large number of gold and silver coins, and then used them as collateral and then issued more paper money, so that a monetary system similar to the Ming Imperial Bank was really established, and then the gold and silver from the Americas supplemented the gold and silver that they actually lacked, especially Philip V and Spain, which meant that they were given ten years, and they could get it all on track.

However, they don't know that it is all under the manipulation of a black hand.

"Let's go, go to the People's Daily!"

After admiring the frenzied scene in front of the Mississippi company, Han Guang said to his coachman.

Immediately after that, the carriage left the Mississippi company and soon arrived at the nearby People's Daily, a newspaper headquartered in Paris that now covers almost half of Europe, with branches in more than a dozen cities including London, Rotterdam, Madrid, Rome, and Stockholm. Because of the radio of the Ming embassy and consulate in these cities as a means of communication, the news it publishes is always up-to-date, and other newspapers do not have this thing to support, and many times the news has to be delayed for more than ten days or even months, so that it has become the most authoritative newspaper in Europe, and all European newspapers take it as a benchmark.

The result, of course, is that it can carry a little bit of bootlegged goods.

The serialization of political satirical novels, the columns and editorials of European consciences such as Voltaire, the experiences of some European tourists in the Ming Dynasty, and the scandals of European monarchs and churches are all instilled through this newspaper to the European people who yearn for freedom and equality, so that the weeds in their hearts grow wildly.

In fact, even the monarchs of Europe could not do without it.

They also relied on the newspaper to obtain external information in the shortest possible time, after all, even if they did not even have a Chape signal, they were still relying on post horses to carry information, and what happened in Madrid would not be known until Philip V was in Paris for several days. But the People's Daily newspaper could be known to almost half of Europe the next day, and that certainly included Philip V, and it was for this reason that the monarchs of Europe could not outright ban it, even though the newspaper often published things that upset them.

Just after Han Guang walked into the headquarters of the People's Daily, a large number of people outside who were in charge of staring here in various capacities immediately separated to report to their respective masters, and then the aristocratic capitalists in Paris all stared wide-eyed.

That same night, the guys got the inside scoop again.

Han Guang, who had left the People's Daily, approached John Law again and demanded that the latter must sell him another part of the Mississippi Company's shares, otherwise he would find the Ming domestic arms dealers to suspend arms exports to France, in which case John Law had to sell him another 10,000 shares.

What does this mean?

This means that Han Guang has a major piece of good news.

Then everyone stared at the next day's newspaper, but unfortunately the next day's People's Daily did not publish any special news, but the next day more Ming businessmen in France began to flock to the Mississippi company, and even other provinces and even other European countries came all the way, and now the French were more certain, the Mississippi company's stock soared from 2,000 to 4,000 at a terrifying speed in the next month.

A month later, Gao Chao finally arrived.

The People's Daily ran a month-late news story that a prospecting team in the upper reaches of the Colorado River had discovered a mega-mine.

"Two hundred years!

Gold, silver and copper that could not be mined for 200 years.

Beneath that land of less than ten square kilometers, there are more than 10 billion tons of ore, which are full of gold, silver and copper, and if you go there, you can just put a basket of stones there and turn it into all the metal currency we use! ”

That's what the newspaper said.

And then the French are really crazy, and the Mississippi stock price is like a rocket, five thousand, six thousand, seven thousand......

Ten thousand is not a dream.

In order to snap up the increasingly strained shares of the Mississippi Company, the French did their best, and all the ladies and ladies of Paris disappeared from the banquets, and they were all in the drawing room of Mr. John Law, waiting for the latter's summons, well, this word is not an exaggeration at all, these days Mr. John Law often has beautiful women when he goes out, and the solution is to sell the latter's shares, and at the same time some small companies attached to the Mississippi Company have also sprung up to solve the problem that the French people have money and nowhere to spend.

Their gold and silver flowed into the Mississippi Company for stocks, and then into the vaults of the Bank of France, and in this situation Philip V finally began the large-scale printing of money he had dreamed of, and the Livre banknotes flowed from the printing press and flowed to the private sector through the French treasury's domestic purchases. But because the Mississippi company collects paper money, so the people do not reject this kind of thing, anyway, it is the gold and silver standard, as for Philip V issued too many problems, this first has the stock market as a money shredder, the second Mississippi company's gold and silver mine is its credibility guarantee, and the resulting rapid development of the French economy has made people ignore this problem, and finally the paper money has been smeared into the turbulent tide and gradually brought France to the era of paper money.

But people forget that the basis of all this is the Mississippi company, and the basis of it all is this project that is still an empty glove white wolf.

The French Mississippi Company has not produced a single gold coin, not a single silver coin, or even the gold and silver mines found in the upper reaches of the Colorado River, all of which are wild wilderness, a wilderness that is currently only on the map of the French colony, but in fact the French government has no ability to control it. But what's the big deal? The French army will eventually turn it into French, the miners of the Mississippi Company will eventually mine the gold and silver, and the credibility that has been seriously overdrawn will finally be replenished with time, and everything will be realized, just a little bit further now.

No big deal.

It's not a big deal!

If there is not a black hand behind that is holding a butcher's knife and waiting to be slaughtered.

In the following period, the Mississippi company's exploration team continued to discover gold and silver mines in the upper reaches of the Colorado River, and all kinds of good news continued to pour in from that wild land, and the Mississippi company's stock price continued to climb to new heights. At the same time, on the basis of this company, more and more companies in the service of the development of the colonies were constantly emerging, and these companies were all enthusiastically followed, and the whole of France was like a carnival. As a result of this boom, more banknotes were printed from the printing press of the Bank of France and became the main force of French government procurement, which in turn stimulated the development of more industries, and the entire French economy soared like never before.
