"Fell, fell, fell!"

"How is this possible!"

"How is that possible? Datang has called, how can food prices fall? ”

"It's over! It's all over! It's already fallen below two hundred and fifty times, it's gone, it's nothing! ”

"I can't live! Fall to death! ”

"Oh no, someone is jumping into the West Lake again!"

"Alas, if we fall like this again, we will all have to jump to the West Lake!"

The trading hall of the Fengle Building Late Appointment Trade Hall is located on the first floor, and it is not possible to jump off the building here, but it is the West Lake outside. If you lose all your net worth, and you don't feel cold, you can jump! They are not the first stock market speculators to lose all their fortunes, and they are certainly not the last, because capitalism, the demon of blood and filth dripping from head to toe in every pore, has now crossed its embryonic stage and is beginning to thrive.

In fact, what scholars call the embryonic phenomenon of capitalism—in some handicraft workshops in which factory owners with capital, raw materials, and machinery employ hired workers with free status to produce for the needs of the market—appeared long before the Southern Song Dynasty and reached a fairly prosperous stage.

For another time and space, there may be some controversy in later scholars, but as long as they go to the Jiangnan region where the commodity economy, overseas trade, and handicraft production were highly occurring during the Southern Song Dynasty, they will know how far the germination of capitalism in the Southern Song Dynasty has reached.

As for the feudal constraints on tenant relations, forced labor, taxation, and industry and commerce, they naturally existed, but they were not stricter than those in post-Renaissance Europe. As for the absolutism and ideological rigidity in politics, in fact, they are far from being compared with the later Ming and Qing dynasties. Scholars in the Song Dynasty did not discriminate against commercial activities. Even if they are wealthy scholars, most of them have children who can't study to run a business.

As a matter of fact. Relying on feudal bureaucrats like Jia Nidao and Liao Yingzhong, no matter how much trouble they make, it is impossible to strangle a bud of capitalism.

Really have that ability. And what was put into practice was the Mongolian invaders who "our army's millions of robes are red, and they are full of the blood of the sons and daughters of Jiangnan"! It was their butcher's knife, slavery, and sea ban policies (the Yuan Dynasty imposed four sea bans in just a few decades of history, and also banned the export of traditional Chinese export handicrafts such as silk brocade, satin, and silk luo for a long time) that ruined the originally extremely prosperous economy of the Southern Song Dynasty and made handicrafts and commercial activities regress in great strides!

In this time and space, although the Southern Song Dynasty was divided by Chen Dexing, the two Han regimes of the Eastern Tang Dynasty and the Northern Ming Dynasty rose in the north, and the maritime power of the Northern Ming Dynasty posed a threat to the southeast coast of the Southern Song Dynasty. But the threat of a Mongol invasion. It's really lifted. Both the Eastern Tang Dynasty and the Northern Ming Dynasty were relatively civilized Han regimes, and even if they seized Jiangnan, it would only be a change of Han dynasty, and the damage that might be brought to the prosperous economy of Jiangnan was relatively limited.

In particular, Chen Dexing, who is most likely to become the owner of Jiangnan, has a good understanding of Jiangnan's industrial and commercial and maritime trade. There was no way for him not to protect commerce and trade, and his territory in the north was not taxed much, and all the income used to support the huge military expenses came from maritime trade.

Moreover, Chen Dexing also established a merchant autonomous city of Shenjiamen on Zhoushan Island, near the mainland south of the Yangtze River. It also established a financial institution closest to the commercial banks of later generations, and vigorously promoted maritime trade with Japan, Goryeo, and Nanfan. It can be said that it has spared no effort to promote the germination of capitalism in Jiangnan.

And the germ of capitalism is often accompanied by bloodshed, adventure, plunder, and deception - in short. It's all something negative. The late speculation of the bubble economy, which was hailed by later generations as the first bubble economy in human history, is a direct consequence of the budding and vigorous development of capitalism! And the consequences of the late hype storm are a completely new one. The emergence of a monetary and financial system more conducive to the development of capitalism!

In a sense, the turmoil of the late covenant began to flourish in the germ of capitalism in the south of the Yangtze River, destroying the monetary and financial systems of the Southern Song Dynasty that hindered its development. If it weren't for Pu Shougeng's launch of late speculation. There will definitely be other forms of financial turmoil that will destroy the monetary and financial system of the Southern Song Dynasty!

"What's going on? What's going on? What the hell is going on......"

"How could it have fallen like this? How can there be so many delays? ”

Pu Shougeng, who personally launched the hype of the late appointment, almost collapsed on the chair, and muttered these words repeatedly. In addition to fear, there is confusion in his eyes.

How did he lose? Obviously there are unexpected benefits, and everyone is bullish and late, why is there a sell-off like a tide? Who is throwing it? How could they be so late?

This can also be regarded as a big speculator of financial predators, who is crossing the river by feeling the stones. There weren't many examples to draw from before him, and his understanding of "options trading" was based on the rule of "inevitable exercise", and he himself was a rule-breaker - he didn't even think about buying rice.

And he unfortunately met another more ruthless rule-breaker - this legendary financial innovation, in fact, is what it is! Break the original rules that are not good for you and make new rules that are good for you!

A servant of the Pu family walked in in a panic and leaned into the ear of Pu Shougeng, who was lost in his soul: "Lord, I found it, it's in the No. 4 private room upstairs!" There are more than a dozen big grain merchants, and there is also a big boss, surnamed Qu, what is Mr. Shuijing! ”

"Qu ...... Water mirrors? Pu Shougeng muttered, and then jumped up suddenly, "Qushui Mirror!" Tiandaozhuang chief water reducer! It turned out to be this thief! This is a trick against the Ming! This is the Heavenly Daoist demon doing ghosts! ”

He jumped to his feet and shouted, "Someone! ”

There are a lot of people, all with guys. They are all the color thugs brought by Pu Shou Geng from Jingzhao Mansion! He now carries with him a late contract worth more than 20 million guan, as well as a flying money with a face value of 3 million guan (the flying money has been lost, and the late contract is also bet on the bank, which has fallen below the liquidation line, and is now being sold by the owner of the bank). Of course, you must bring enough bodyguards, otherwise you will be robbed in the middle of the road, and you will lose both people and money.

"Come with me and go to catch the Heavenly Dao Sect traitors!" Pu Shougeng yelled with red eyes, and then rushed out of the door like crazy. Before he went out, he bumped into a person who rushed in from outside the door. Pu Shougeng looked at it and saw that it was Liu Xiaoyuan.

"Brother Ming Jing, follow me to catch the Heavenly Dao Sect thief!" Pu Shougeng didn't ask Liu Xiaoyuan's intentions, he roared and rushed out again, "Don't be fast, you can't let go of the head of Tiandaozhuang!" ”

Liu Xiaoyuan grabbed Pu Shougeng suddenly: "Brother Haiyun, something is wrong!" The road to Fengle Lou is blocked by Jia Nidao's Taiyong, and only people are allowed to enter, not out! ”

"Then Jia Rudao must have sent troops to take the Heavenly Dao Sect against the thieves!" Pu Shougeng didn't think about it, so he blurted out.

"Brother Haiyun!" Liu Xiaoyuan still dragged Pu Shougeng to death, "This soldier can't be adjusted by saying that he can be adjusted, and he can be adjusted as soon as he is adjusted...... They must have set off from the barracks early in the morning! These soldiers are not here to arrest some Heavenly Taoist thieves, they are here to arrest you! ”

Pu Shougeng was stunned: "Grab it...... I!? I am an envoy of the Great Mongols, and they dare too? ”

"Why don't you dare?"

Liu Xiaoyuan glanced at him: "Great Mongolia can reach Jiangnan now?" Not to mention that the Mongolian army is called against the Ming Dynasty, only the Xiangyang Jiedu makes Gundam and the Huaixi Jiedu make Xia Gui the two door gods are not easy to fight! And the reverse Ming has a navy, and it is stationed on Zhoushan Island, and it can attack Qingyuan Mansion at any time!

In addition, now that the pseudo-Tang Dynasty is going south, Huaidong is about to fight. How dare the Song court turn against the Ming at the same time? Jia seems to be crazy to catch a refractive mirror! ”

"But, but why did Jia Rudao arrest me?" Pu Shougeng was also in a hurry, and actually asked such a question.

"You're rich! If you are about to fry for a few hundred times late, will you have no money? ”

"But, but I've already lost it all, and I'm about to lose it all......"

"But Jia Rudao doesn't know!"

Liu Xiaoyuan stomped his feet, flicked his sleeves and walked out, "Brother Haiyun, run away quickly, don't stay here, mix in the lobby on the first floor, Jia Rudao won't arrest everyone." ”

Mix!? Pu Shougeng's eyelids rolled and he almost fainted. Liu Xiaoyuan is so mixed, yellow-skinned and black-haired, who can recognize him when he stops among a bunch of red-eyed Song merchants and scholars? But I'm a color eye, and I'm white! It's not just a one-size-fits-all approach!

……

"Hurry, hurry! Hurry up and carry it to the edge of the West Lake! ”

Qu Fatzi had also been reported at this time, and the news that Jia Rudao had transferred 6,000 troops to raid Fengle Lou certainly couldn't hide it from the spies of the Beiming Intelligence Division. The news arrived at Qu Fatzi as soon as possible. The group of reactionary big bears in the room were also panicked, and they turned around and had no idea -- they all joined the Heavenly Taoist Sect, and they also colluded with foreign anti-Song forces to make short appointments! If this falls into the hands of Jia Rudao, why don't you raid your house and kill your head?

Qu Fatzi was calm, and shouted loudly to command his subordinates to lift boxes and boxes of Tiandaozhuang flying money to the edge of the West Lake downstairs - the face value of Tiandaozhuang flying money is very large, the starting board is 100 guan, and the largest one is 1000 guan. However, more than 30 million Guan Fei money is put together, it is still like a small mountain, and the large cowhide box alone contains dozens of them! These flying money were all exchanged after selling hundreds of thousands of late contracts. According to the rules of Feng Lok Building, it should be after the market closes, and the actuarial calculation can be completed before the cash can be withdrawn. But now the situation is special, and there is no need for any precision, just about to receive the money.

However, at this time, the land and waterways leaving Fengle Building have been blocked by Jia Rudao's Taiyong, can these dozens of boxes of flying money be transported away unharmed? (To be continued......)
