Chapter 36: Eighteen Million

After leaving the port, Yan Guang took Wang Er and the others towards the hotel where they had stayed a year ago.

The dΓ©cor of the hostel is the same as it was a year ago, with no changes.

"You? You're not? When the hotel owner who was working saw Yan Guang, he pointed his finger at him and couldn't speak for a long time.

"Do you remember me?" Yan Guang was a little surprised, in the eyes of the white race, the yellow race all looked the same, Yan Guang was still very clear about this matter, he never thought that the innkeeper would still remember him for more than a year.

"Of course I remember you." The innkeeper smiled, his face was much more rosy than it had been a year ago. "It's rare to see a tall yellow man like you in London, and I want to thank you for reminding me a year ago to buy rubber stocks."

"Earned?"

The boss's answer was only two words. "A lot!"

Since he bought rubber stocks with all his spare money a year ago, this amount has now multiplied several times. And the innkeeper has also had a habit from that day on, that is, to visit the London Stock Exchange in the morning.

"By the way, the three people behind you are all with you, right?" After seeing Wang Erthree behind Yan Guang, the innkeeper raised his head and asked.

"That's right."

"Hmm," the innkeeper muttered. How long are you going to stay here? ”

"It's about a week, maybe half a month." Selling stocks is not like buying stocks, and Yan Guang doesn't know how long it will take to sell all the stocks in the suitcase, after all, these stocks are no longer just $900,000.

"That's right." The innkeeper touched his chin. "You made me a lot of money a year ago, so in that case, this half month's accommodation is considered free."

"Really?"

"Of course." As he spoke, the innkeeper took out the key. "By the way, what are you doing in London this time?" Seeing that Yan Guang was well-dressed and had three people who seemed to be subordinates, the innkeeper asked with some curiosity.

"Sell stocks." It's no secret either, so Yan Guang naturally replied.

"What?!"

――――――――――

London's rubber stock differed from that of Shanghai, and its rise was in 1908, reaching its peak in late 1909, and its peak in the spring of 1910.

When the bubble of rubber stocks burst in June 1910, international rubber speculation flourished and declined, and the market of London rubber stocks, the world's financial center, plummeted.

So now, that is, at the end of 1909, the rise of rubber stocks in London is no longer as crazy as in the past, and it is better to go back to Shanghai with money if you really want to return to madness, and Shanghai's rubber stocks were only 20 taels a share in February 1910, and in April they became 50 taels, and of course after two months, these stocks were stronger than waste paper.

The Huangpu River and the Thames River, like the Ganges River in India, are full of floating corpses...

Of course, these innkeepers don't know, because until this time the stock market in London is still very good, although it is not as crazy as before, but it still has a good momentum, and at this time it is necessary to sell all the stocks...

"You're not going crazy, are you?" Saying that, the innkeeper wanted to come up and touch Yan Guang's head to see if he had a fever.

"Eh..."Yan Guang slapped the boss's hand away. It's a bit cold, but it's not burned yet. ”

"Then how did you come up with the idea of selling the stock? Don't you know how rare stocks are in London these days? ”

Since the market has risen wildly, rubber stocks have become hard to find in today's London Stock Exchange.

"That's why I'm going to sell it while he's still selling." As he spoke, Yan Guang looked at the innkeeper and smiled. "You don't think that something can rise forever, do you? Even the sun burns out one day. ”

"This..."

In the final analysis, it is because the stock market has not been in the past and there has never been such a phenomenon as a crash, so many people are looking forward to it.

"Forget it, don't talk about it." The innkeeper shook his head and decided to shake Yan Guang's gossip out. "You said you came to London to sell your stocks, right?"

"That's right."

"In that case, why don't you sell me some." Saying that, the innkeeper looked at Yan Guang expectantly.

The innkeeper had bought some rubber stocks a year ago, but since then the stocks have become harder and harder to buy, and now they are as hard to come by as he said. So after seeing that Yan Guang planned to sell the shares he held, the innkeeper naturally planned to buy some from him.

Whether or not these stocks crash or not, at least for now, he's still rising...

The innkeeper didn't have much money on hand, so he only bought thirty shares from Yan Guang, but when Yan Guang opened his suitcase to get him the stocks, he kept calling the name of Jesus Christ...

Looking at the innkeeper's clasped hands, and the Jesus Christ old man who kept appearing in his mouth, Yan Guang could only admit that this guy's faith was indeed very strong, and he didn't think that it was the stock of his suitcase that scared this guy.

After a night's rest, Yan Guang took the stocks in his suitcase to the largest stock exchange in London and sold all the stocks in his suitcase.

Like the owner of the hotel, the traders on the stock exchange look surprised when they see someone trying to sell their shares, and their jaws drop when they see the suitcase full of stocks.

It then took Yan Guang a whole week to sell all the stocks in the suitcase, and all the cash was deposited in HSBC, after all, Yan Guang couldn't take the $6 million in cash back to China in the suitcase.

That's right, six million dollars, which is equivalent to more than 18 million silver dollars, is more than one million higher than Yan Guang expected.

More than 18 million silver dollars, as long as 2 million silver dollars are raised, 20 million silver dollars are collected and then all invested in the industry, according to the "Revised Articles of Association of the Reward Company" issued by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, Yan Guang can become the first-class adviser of the Ministry of Commerce, plus the head of the top wear, imitation of the treasure star style to give the double dragon gold medal, by the way, can also let the descendants of the three generations of hereditary fourth-class advisers.

It's a pity that Yan Guang is not interested in any of these, for him seven products are enough, so when he said goodbye to the hotel owner and returned to Shanghai on an ultra-luxury cruise ship, Yan Guang only thought about one question in his heart, that is, how to make this eighteen million into more money.

"Revolution requires a lot of money..."Thinking of the Xinhai Revolution two years later, although the income of this trip was more than expected by a million US dollars, Yan Guang still couldn't be happy...

Poor...
