Chapter 406: Everyone is drunk
"Maibian's stock, up again? The par price has risen to nine hundred taels? "Zhao Guanhou's room is like a wartime command post, the walls are covered with documents, and the hands are full of reports and account books. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoThis is a war without gunpowder, although you can't hear the sound of guns and cannons, and you don't hear the shadow of swords, but when the results are announced, I'm afraid it will be a situation of heavy casualties and rivers of blood.
Since ancient times, the world has not governed Shu first, the world has not been chaotic Shu first chaos, and almost everyone in central Sichuan has a share of the road money, which is pressed on the stocks. Once the stock changes, how can the people stop? There was chaos in Sichuan, and there was an earthquake in the four seas, and the Geming party did not know where to start the army. Not long ago, I saw a newspaper publication that the Guangzhou general Fauci had been assassinated, and the assassin had been arrested on the spot, and his identity had been determined, and the assassin was Wen Shengcai, a member of the Geming Party.
If the expectation is correct, I am afraid that Guangzhou will make trouble. Zhao Guanhou has already received the news that many people in the imperial court have invested their money in the stock market and are waiting to make a fortune, and when this bubble is burst, all the money will evaporate, and the imperial court will have no food and no salary, and what will be used to transfer troops to quell the rebellion, even if they want to stabilize the situation, they do not have this power.
This time, Songjiang's stock pit is not just a few businessmen or financiers, but the pillars of the entire country, which are already crumbling. Jensen and he were quickly dialing the abacus, and Zou Xiurong was also involved. She is more compassionate and quite unbearable for the tragic situation in the future
"Fourth, I think, do you want us to make a move to block it, so that the people will suffer less losses."
"Second sister-in-law, I'm not happy to beat you, but it doesn't mean much. This time we weren't gambling with one or two people, but with the whole Wall Street and the Tessie stock market. These people's money was bought into rubber stocks, which were destined to suffer. Now it's a question of whether we can salvage some of the money as much as we can before it disappears, and let it fall into our pockets and nothing else. To be honest, this time, if my prediction was correct, it was a disaster for the global stock market, and China was unfortunate enough to be the one to take over. Our little strength, if we want to fight against the world-wide stock market crash, we are also powerless. ”
Zou Xiurong was silent, she also had to admit that what Zhao Guanhou said was probably right.
The porter happened to call at this time, saying that a Tiele man came to visit, which resolved the embarrassment between the two. After Zhao Guanhou arrived in the living room, he saw the chairman of Daosheng Bank, Grand Duke Andreyev.
Zhao Guanhou smiled and said, "The Grand Duke came so quickly, have you already cleaned up the building?" You know, moving those supplies is a very time-consuming task, and I have to make sure that the building is handed over on time, and if I can't do it, then I have to ask the Ministry of Industry to enforce it. ”
Andreyev said coldly: "Thank you for the reminder. However, I have not come today to listen to nonsense, but to say to you and Mrs. Jenson that our VAM agreements are impartial by the consul generals of various countries, and no defaults are allowed. I'd like to see, how many shares have you raised now? ”
"Stocks? Sorry, I'm not interested in raising that, I'll just pay you back when the time comes. Zhao Guanhou didn't care about lighting a cigar, "It's just a few million silver, what is it." The Grand Duke is a nobleman, so he shouldn't be able to eat and drink for this bit of silver, right? If you are really not at ease, why don't we cancel the bet? ”
"Lord Zhao, I must remind you that whoever takes the initiative to cancel the gambling contract in the middle of the game will bear a 50% fine, and the consent of the other party is also required. It seems that you are very confident in the matter of Langezhi, but I still have to make it clear to you that Daosheng Bank is in the market to acquire Langezhi, and I hope you can understand if there is friction between our acquirers and your acquirers. ”
"Thank you for your kindness, I don't think this will happen, send-off!"
When the Grand Duke came, he naturally came to demonstrate, but he didn't expect Zhao Guanhou to be so confident, which made him bored. Jensen smiled: "My dear, as far as I know, the Grand Duke has borrowed another sum of money to buy the scattered Langezhi shares in the market, ensuring that we can't buy the shares. I just happened to sell some of the stocks that I could get my hands on. ”
"Yes, the Grand Duke is a good man, and we should thank him." Zhao Guanhou spoke, hugged Jian Sen into his arms, and was about to get closer, not wanting the phone to ring again, this time it was Cai Huang of Songjiang Dao.
Zhao Guanhou had no choice but to greet Yu Qing in another room first. When they met, Cai Huang's face was not very good-looking, and his complexion was both a little panicked and a little anxious, not as calm as the last time they met.
Zhao Guanhou smiled, "Cai Daotai, didn't you come here today for some new business, and the governor of Jiangsu is urging you to take people?" If so, I won't embarrass you, you just have to take it. If the court is not afraid of a note from a foreigner, then I will go with you. ”
"No, no...... Brother, that's not the case. To be honest, it doesn't matter at all at the moment, even if the bite of the gold comes, I can still not give him face, and now there is really a big matter, and I have to discuss it with my senior brother. ”
Dajin officialdom is popular to say hidden words, biting gold naturally refers to Cheng Quande, he is Cai Huang's nominal boss, Cai Huang said this, he does not take his superiors in his eyes, which obviously proves that what he wants to say is much more important than this. Zhao Guanhou asked: "What's the matter, Cai Dao can say it clearly." ”
"Senior brother, I came today to ask you for my life on behalf of the millions of people in Songjiang. Please, for the sake of our family, and for the sake of the ordinary people of Songjiang, we must help. As he spoke, he stood up, straightened his robe and wanted to bow down, but Zhao Guanhou hurriedly stopped him
"Cai Daotai, you are a parent official, I am just a passerby, I can't afford to use such a courtesy. Tell me where you started. Let me know what is going on, and I'll be prepared to say if I can help. Since we are in the same door, we have something to say, if you have anything to do, just ask, and if you can do it, I will definitely do it for you. ”
With this sentence, the little brother was relieved. Brother I have a friendship with Mrs. Jenson, and I would like to ask you to say a few kind words in front of her and make a loan for me. The more the better, at least not less than 500,000 taels of silver. I used the surplus of the Songjiang tariff as a guarantee to ensure that the money would be returned in full. ”
Zhao Guanhou smiled, "What, Cai Daotai also saw this wave of market and wanted to enter the market to give it a go?" It's hard to say, Lang Gezhi's share has risen to nine hundred taels, who can not be tempted. But listen to my advice, there is no need to play so big, you are in a good place in Songjiang, you can always leave three points of silver every year, there is no need to fight hard, borrow money to speculate in stocks, that is too unwise. ”
Cai Huang shook his head and said: "That's not the case, senior brother, if you also speculate in stocks in Songjiang, listen to my advice and sell the stocks as soon as possible." I'm not going to hide it from you, I also have some stocks in my hands, and I've already sold them all. You also hurry up and sell, it will be too late. When it comes to gambling, you just need to pay back the money, and when the time comes, the stocks will be waste paper and worthless. I borrowed money not to speculate in stocks, but to save the market. In the whole Songjiang, the money bank is basically involved in the stock management, once something happens, the money bank can't get the money, and the people are going to make trouble. I lent this money to the money bank for turnover, and when the turmoil passed, I could return it, and I asked my brother to make it happen. ”
Zhao Guanhou was stunned, he calculated that the stock market crash was coming based on the trend of the stock and the news Jensen heard. Does Cai Huang also have news, otherwise how could he be so accurate? He was suspicious in his heart, and he remained silent on the surface
Cai Daotai is telling jokes again, the stock has indeed fallen slightly, but even the grandma on the streets of Songjiang knows that this is called technical adjustment. When this wave of wind passes, it will immediately rise sharply. Everyone is taking advantage of this time to eat stocks, how can there be a problem? This is a gold mountain, everyone is digging gold mines, Lord Cai poured a basin of cold water down, beware of the people scolding behind their backs. ”
Cai Huang shook his head, "Senior brother, junior brother has something to say and won't hide it from you." I don't read well, the four books and the five classics, my learning is very average, I should be good at reading, I am not good at anything, if it wasn't for the teacher, I wouldn't be able to sit in this position. But I also have a subject that I like, which is economics. At the beginning, there was a new policy in the imperial court, and there were economic specialists, and I read this. I don't know anything about stocks, and I know that disaster is coming. ”
He sighed, sighing, "Songjiang has been very wide over the years, making ordinary people forgetful, and they really think they are omnipotent." But I never thought that I was wide because I was a comprador and because I did business with foreigners, bartering money, cash delivery, textile processing, and even money bank ticket numbers, exchange and circulation. In business, you can barely hold on and play stocks with foreigners, which is really attacking each other's strengths with your own shortcomings. Most people haven't seen the clues of this stock market turmoil, but I can guarantee that a catastrophe is coming. Far from rising, the stock price will continue to fall, even to a very terrible point. Judging from the current stock price, even if all the places in Luzon were planted with rubber trees, it would not be enough for these stock prices. ”
"In that case, why didn't Cai Daotai say it earlier?"
Cai Huang spread his hands, "Senior brother, you are also a smart person who handles foreign affairs, so it makes no sense to ask." When everyone is going crazy, a smart person will not be likable when he comes out. As a magistrate, even if you can't make meritorious contributions, you can't have it, even if you can't make the people like me, you can't make everyone hate me. If the boss of the money bank, the comprador of the foreign bank, or even the foreigners here hate me, how can this official go on? They went crazy, so I had to go with them. Now that I've had enough madness, it's time to find a way to save the city, and I have to take on the responsibility of a magistrate to keep this situation afloat. No matter how I came to be an official, I am always the parent of the people, and I have the obligation to think of a way out for the people. ”
In Cai Huang's view, the problem in Songjiang now is not necessarily the stock market crash, but the cut off of capital flow, and the money bank has no money to redeem. In Songjiang Customs, he had 3 million customs money in deposit, and he borrowed a sum of money from banks in various countries, totaling more than 3 million, which was enough to cope with this difficulty.
As long as there is money in the market and the money bank can be put running, the people will not be chaotic and the order will not be bad. If order is maintained, there is hope for everything. As long as the market is not bad, with the foundation of Songjiang, over time, this vitality can always be restored. Even if some people go bankrupt and jump into the Huangpu River, it is better than the collapse of the entire market.
He finally said: "Senior brother, if you don't read it, you don't read it, you have to take a hand when you read it in the same class." As long as you pass this pass, I will ask the people and gentry of Songjiang to jointly sign a guarantee and go to the capital to ask for your life. The Songjiang gentry are different from other places, they have dealings with foreigners, and they still have a bit of weight in speaking in the imperial court. Besides, it's always not bad to save more people. ”
Zhao Guanhou also said with a straight face: "Cai Daotai, we don't have to say these scenes, if you want to say this kind of empty talk, I can compensate you for the last day, and it won't help the situation." You're coming to me now, it's not the right thing to do. If you want to stabilize the market, why not go to a money bank. Let the money banks take advantage of the fact that the stock price has not really collapsed and get rid of it as soon as possible. If you can sell some of it, you can finally return to the capital, which is always better than borrowing foreign debts. ”
Cai Huang shook his head helplessly, "Don't hide it, I just came from Chen Yunqing and Master Chen." His Zhengyuan issued six million banker bills and a large amount of stocks in his hands. But after we met, guess what? Instead, he wants to take advantage of the low stock price during this time, eat some of the released shares, and hold up the stock price again. Relying on the fact that Songjiang Qianzhuang is a chain ship and adjusts positions with each other, he wants to raise the stock price before selling. Besides, now he wants to sell ...... Whether it can be sold or not, and whether it can find a next home, is also a question. ”
Zhao Guanhou didn't want to, he actually met a smart person in Songjiang, he thought for a while, "Cai Daotai, I'll help you do this, but you also have to know that if it is really as you said, there are twists and turns in the stock market, and it will be difficult to preserve the money and business." At that time, the credibility of the money bank will not be counted, and foreigners will not rest assured that they will lend their debts to the money bank. Unless it's ...... The government came forward to vouch for it. And it must be written, the current and successor Daotai are responsible, you know, there are too many things for our Dajin people to go to tea and cool, and foreigners are already afraid of our problem. ”
"That's a certainty, as long as Mrs. Jenson agrees to lend us money, I'll do it." Cai Huang gave up his hand again and again with gratitude, and sighed again, "I hope this time I am worried about the sky and think things too complicated." If I really think wrong, I will wrap up the peacock hall of the Licha Hotel, invite the senior brother and Shigege, eat dishes for ten days, and listen to the drama for ten days, which can be regarded as an apology. ”
Yuqing urged and asked, "What if you think right?" ”
Cai Huang was silent for a moment, "If I really think right, then this Peacock Hall is afraid that it will be occupied by people who jumped off the building, and there is no place for us to stand." ”
After he said goodbye and left, Yuqing snorted, "He's not a good person." I saw that there was a problem before, but I refused to speak, and it sounded good on the surface, but it wasn't actually for my own money. ”
"I'm not a good person, just like him." Zhao Guanhou pulled Yuqing and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, "When the time comes, one after another, people will jump down from here." You say, will they hate me? Hate me for not saving me when I see death. ”
"I don't know...... I don't care. Yuqing bit her lower lip, "You are not the parent official here, and you have no obligation to protect them." If nothing happens to the stocks, no one will think of sharing your money when they all make a lot of money. If there is a problem with the stock, you have no obligation to save them, and it is unreasonable to use this to ask you. When Cai Huang was in the stock market, he wanted to speculate and make a fortune, but he refused to come out to stop it. Now the situation can't be cleaned up, if he doesn't come out to clean up the situation, this Songjiang Road will sit at the head, not so much to protect the people, but to protect himself. It's not enough for him to die by himself, he has to drag you into the water, it's even more hateful, I will send a telegram to Ama when I turn around, and ask him to dismiss Cai Huang's official. If you want me to say, don't even talk to Jensen about the loan, as soon as you open your mouth, you will be involved in the matter, and when the time comes, you will not be able to get rid of it. ”
Zhao Guanhou hugged Yuqing from behind and shook it gently, "It's still a good wife, I know how to understand my husband's difficulties." I can't get out of it now, but when I arrive in Songjiang, I am destined to come to this circle of right and wrong. The only difference is how to do it inside. McBian was not only himself in this game, but the Yankees' consul also participated, otherwise Jenson would have been kicked out so easily. It's a very dangerous thing for us to be in their territory and engage their people. At this time, I don't want to cause other troubles. So...... I'm sorry, I'm afraid it's hard for me to help. And Songjiang is in chaos, and the next chaos may be the whole country, I hope you have a preparation in your heart. ”
Yuqing gently leaned on Zhao Guanhou, "I am Dajin's Gege, the righteous daughter of Lafayette, I naturally love this country and this country." But I am your wife, the mother of the fat girl, I love you more, and I love my daughter more. The two can't be perfect, and finally there is a trade-off. I have seen the attitude of the court, they are not willing to care about me, and I can't care about them, as long as you are good, you can do whatever you want. ”
When the two were intimacy, a few dry coughs sounded behind them, but seeing Jensen standing behind them, Zhao Guanhou made a gesture towards her, "Come here, together." ”
"Not in the mood." Jenson said angrily, "The news from the Yankee side is coming, the Yankee announced a tightening policy, and the purchase quota of rubber has been greatly reduced, and it is foreseeable that soon, the rubber stocks in the London stock market will usher in a total collapse." If you continue to spend your time here, our big fish will slip away. ”
Zhao Guanhou walked up to her with a smile and kissed her on the face, "Don't worry, baby, the fish is within my control, and I can't go anywhere." However, you have to be careful when doing this in the public concession, and you can't rush it. We still have a few days to go, and Mai Bian will have to suck in some more gold. When he's sucked enough, we'll be able to do it all. (To be continued.) )
