"Huh?"

It's really a bit of a surprise, because although Li Mengyang guessed this William before. Cameron is likely to get a piece of the rubber business in Southeast Asia, but Li Mengyang really didn't expect that this Cameron would actually say that it was to bring him benefits, what is going on?

"Your Majesty!" William. Cameron's eyes were shining out at this time, and he was completely super excited, so he said: "The business I am talking about is actually very simple, that is, since your country has signed such an agreement with France, and since you have actually controlled the rubber in Southeast Asia, why don't we make this market bigger?" ”

"Huh?" When Li Mengyang heard this, he was a little confused, because he only wanted to exempt this part of the tariff before, with the current demand for rubber in the empire, and the huge automobile and bicycle industry that will develop in the future, then this rubber industry, this market will inevitably be very large, but now, ......

Isn't it, this William. Cameron wants to have a quick time?!

Don't really say it, this William. Cameron wants to speed up!

"Your Majesty! I believe that in the future, oh, in the same way, I believe that Your Majesty must have seen it a long time ago, in the future, there will be a great demand for rubber all over the world, then this market will be very large, and how much profit this business can make is simply immeasurable. So, Your Majesty, you are really too smart, I am simply throwing yourself into the five bodies that I worship you......"

"It's just that it's tariff-free for 50 years."

In the face of these blows for others, Li Mengyang said that he had not done enough, so he added, but ...... 50 years is enough! Not short!

No matter how much Thiers betrays the country, he will not be able to extend this time longer. Otherwise, there is really no way to explain.

But......

"Your Majesty, you are really too modest...... "Well, William. Cameron is really more than the big players of the empire.

"Getting to the point! Getting to the point! "Li Mengyang is now interested in this matter...... Anyway, he can't do too much, he doesn't have many people on his hands, and ah, as long as he doesn't delay doing the right thing, then it's okay.

Then since His Majesty the Emperor has said so. That's the point, of course.

"Your Majesty! It's very simple, for this huge market that will appear, of course we can't just look at it, we need to stimulate him, use some other means, more modern means, for example, the stock market, such as the futures market! Cameron said that. He looked at His Majesty the Emperor, and he wanted to see something.

"......" Li Mengyang's expression was still the same, but there were monstrous waves surging in his heart!

Yes! Why didn't I think of it!

Futures!

This thing has a great role in promoting the development of a commodity market, and yes, this thing is actually good for buyers!

One of the advantages of futures is that it can avoid risks, although Li Mengyang is not a student of finance. But he still knows a little bit about this kind of thing, because you bought it in advance. Then the future price fluctuation of this commodity, your risk is small, if it rises you are equal to a profit, and if it falls, then it is okay, because when you buy. It's calculated according to your production cost at the time, so you won't lose much.

It's all a stupid total, but in fact, the reason why futures are here. It's really for those big buyers.

Not to mention, the United States has a futures market in Chicago, and the scale is not small.

The reason for the establishment of such a futures market, let's not talk about the details of the establishment of the beginning, just say that some of the regulations, such as the delivery time of an order, that is, you have won the previous order, and then you should pay, and the goods at this time are mainly agricultural products such as corn, so the price at this time is one cent lower than the current price per bushel!

Do you think it's good for buyers?

And ah, don't underestimate the cheapness of one penny, the reason why this futures exchange was established back then was because the railroad in the United States was built to the Great Lakes, and the canal was also opened, and some areas in the central part of the United States, this place is all the Great Plains, and there is really too much land that can be cultivated. The cost of transportation was falling dramatically, so a penny was not a small bargain, and the dollar was still real money at that time.

So now, our American empire should be the largest buyer of rubber, and now the largest producer of rubber is Southeast Asia, we have negotiated with the French over there, there are no tariffs, so even if the European side has made the automobile industry in the future, but also made the rubber processing industry, but our empire will still be the largest buyer of rubber, and our cost is relatively cheap!

So, obviously, we should have a futures market to control the price trend of rubber, and we should also have a related stock market, hey, don't we have this stock market, Wall Street......

The William in front of me. Cameron seems to be the one who doesn't want to develop Wall Street?

"Your Majesty! You're so wise! "Seeing that the emperor didn't react at all, William. Cameron was really convinced.

"Tell me what you think, maybe it's not right what I thought." Li Mengyang, this guy is actually ...... Load X! It's true!

Li Mengyang, a liberal arts student, sometimes does ignore some things, such as these economic speculations...... Finance, Li Mengyang has used some of this thing, but after all, this is not his old business, he can only do it through some historical knowledge he knows, such as the material-based system, which is in the history of the party.

"Good!" That William. Cameron began to say, "First of all, I propose that a futures market should be established in the Far East, as well as a stock market. Needless to say, some materials in the Far East are not only rubber, but also other things, many, many. In addition, stocks are related companies, such as shipping companies for transporting rubber, and also need related packaging, loading and unloading, and semi-finished product processing in the future, I am afraid that there will be these things, and the location of this market is ......"

“SHANGHAI！” Li Mengyang didn't interrupt Cameron, but Cameron, the guy stopped at the end.

"Your Majesty! You really are the wisest monarch of all time! ”

Very good, this guy Cameron not only slapped Li Mengyang's ass, but also praised himself fiercely!

"......" Li Mengyang didn't speak, because he really seemed to see David's shadow on William's body, hey~

Why SHANGHAI?

This answer is so simple that even non-time-travelers will choose here.

That place is the intersection of East and West in the Far East, and why can this Cameron in front of him tell Li Mengyang about the establishment of a futures market and a stock market? It's not because HSBC is in Shanghai, it's her headquarters.

Obviously, Cameron and Li Mengyang, one of them has the goods in his hands, and the other can easily build a platform to come out, and all this is simply ...... The widow meets the fat fan......

Ahem...... Li Mengyang was almost choked by his own thoughts.

"Your Majesty......" Cameron looked worried, this guy's acting skills are really outstanding.

"Good! Your idea is very good, this matter, related matters, details, you go to the one in our empire...... Oh, it's Mr. Rockefeller, you can find the old Rockefeller or you can go to the little Rockefeller, it's okay, you can talk slowly. ”

Come on, what else to say about this matter, Li Mengyang has made a decision!

“YES-YOUR-MAJESTY！” William. Cameron is always happy!

It should be said that William. Cameron's trip is really worth it, and the ticket he spent a lot of resources to get is really worth it, super value!

But however, this futures market also has a stock market, that is, a modern financial market play, and this thing will blossom in a place like the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which has not yet had much modernization, so what kind of fruit will this bear?

Regarding this matter, Li Mengyang will naturally find the answer in the knowledge he has learned before, and this answer is ......

Hey, that's right!

Chang Kaishen was bald back then, and he was speculating in stocks in SHANGHAI at the beginning! And he lost a lot of money on this stock, at that time, this guy was with a lot of people to speculate in stocks, there were Yu Qiaqing, Chen Guofu, Chen Lifu, and then the pants that were lost were gone, so Jiang Guangtou worshiped Huang Jinrong as the eldest brother, and only then did he escape the catastrophe......

But this thing seems to be related to what we are going to do right now, this ...... Ah!

Li Mengyang thought about it before he remembered that the Manchu Qing Dynasty had also speculated in futures, and they also speculated in rubber!

Li Mengyang can't remember the specific details, but he still knows this little history, because this rubber copying is so evil that it has caused a huge movement, and this movement is the road protection movement!

To put it simply, the speculation was too fierce back then, not only futures, but also stocks were in the sky, but a stock market crash came, the money was gone, and the people of Sichuan and Shu were miserable, so they began to sell the country...... It sells no worse than that of Persia.

Now, Li Mengyang's empire is a big buyer, that is to say, if this stock and futures market is established, then Li Mengyang has at least mastered a whip that can influence the Manchu Qing Dynasty!

It's important, it's really very important, and ......

Let's not add it up too much, Li Mengyang thought that he had to do one thing, he had to write a letter first, because some people live on rubber...... (To be continued......)
