Wang Mancang led the white tulips into the port of Amsterdam while the chickens and dogs were jumping throughout the North Sea and the Baltic Sea, about 36 hours before the end of the second step of the selection team.

The home port of the Dutch merchants is still thriving, but the order is quite chaotic, and the streets are full of crying people, all like ants on a hot pot, holding hot tulips and asking for help.

I can only watch in despair as the value of the treasure in my hand plummets in the free market and bill trading, and it is estimated that when the exchange opens tomorrow, the official price of the tulip will only be lower.

Of course, these are all things that the big chaebols expected, and they are bound to face the same chaos in their own plans to sing empty tulips, so what kind of chaos will arise and how to deal with it, they all have a draft in their hearts, Amsterdam is their port after all, and it is absolutely impossible to make things too out of control.

The source of turmoil, Lao Wang, in order to return to Hong Kong this time, also used his own finest caution, he did not use the White Tulip to transfer his own 300 boxes of goods, he hired three ships to carry out the transshipment separately, now at this time period, many of the selectors who have not completed the task may be as crazy as the businessmen who have lost their money, don't forget, although the collapse of the tulip is a foregone conclusion, but in the classification of the exchange, it still belongs to the category of popular goods, Lao Wang does not want to be for the mountain, the success is short, at this last moment, by other selectors at sea intercepted their own and。

Because of this carefulness, he finally showed up outside the mansion of the East India Company with 300 boxes of top-quality tulip bulbs and lease interest, a week earlier than the original agreed return time.

In Lao Wang's imagination, this head of the guild should be in a hurry now, Tulip's collapse and his own strategy of surrounding each other are enough for him to be busy, and this guy may not have time to deal with his small lease agreement in his busy schedule.

It should be to send a housekeeper to hastily accept the things, and then return your collateral to yourself, so that you can leave this place in peace.

However, Lao Wang still underestimated the strength of the interactive characters in the trial world, and the fat head of the meeting might be crushed to death by Takenaka with his strength attribute when he fought, but in business warfare, he definitely has the strength to be close to God.

Through the efficient arrangement during the day, the head of the meeting and the chaebols have basically completed the sale of tulips in their hands, and the remaining undetermined amount cannot be used to hurt them, and by the way, they also brought the Dutch government to play together.

They encouraged the government to use tulips to buy foreign government bonds, dispose of the Dutch government's stocks, and completely consolidate their control over the government.

In this way, the rule of the chaebols is still strong, and in the next few days, they can safely withdraw from the situation and watch how the market continues to ferment this storm.

When the tulips have completely become the rats that everyone shouts at, and the retail investors and foreign funds lose their pants, they will come to the rescue and accept the real estate as collateral, believing that after this battle, the Netherlands will be able to guarantee its hegemony in the North Sea for another ten years.

Therefore, the fat head of the club was already busy at this time, and he took the time to meet Lao Wang in person.

The fat head did not rush to let Lao Wang deliver the goods and interest first, but politely asked Lao Wang to sit down, saying that he wanted to have a good chat with this rising star in the business world while he had time.

Seeing this, Lao Wang did not have too much hypocrisy, and sat down at the invitation of the fat leader, waiting for an open and honest talk, and some things were open to talk, which would be of great benefit to his follow-up actions in the Age of Sail.

Things have developed so far, Lao Wang carefully planned, and the empty tulip operation launched in the four large ports in sections has been completed, and the result is also certain, the fat head has passed various return information, and Wang Mancang's behavior of returning the tulip now, and also knows that this guy is the person behind the tulip collapse before them, and there is nothing to hide.

The indirect game between the head of the meeting and the old king has been completed, and in the whole tulip bubble, the interests of the two parties are non-zero-sum, so there can be a happy situation, which makes the fat head and the old Wang willing to sit down and talk about the whole story.

The fat club stopped the tension of the sell-off period, adjusted his body to a comfortable position, sank into the sofa and took a sip of wine and said to Lao Wang: "Seriously, Mr. van der kamp, when you came to me to borrow tulips like crazy at the beginning, I really didn't expect that this was your purpose. ”

Lao Wang looked at the fat leader, and saw that he was smiling, and his face was full of peace, which had nothing to do with the four words "Commanding the Storm".

Wang Mancang also smiled, and he said to the fat club: "I didn't ignore your interests, if you want to talk about benefits, you have much more than me." ”

"Are you interested in sitting at our big table?" the fat head suddenly asked, and the light in his small eyes locked directly on Lao Wang.

Of course, this is not literal, the largest plutocratic alliance in the Netherlands has a popular nickname, that is, "the big table".

"Well, I don't have enough qualifications at the moment, so let me train for a few more years, but at least it shows that you have confidence in me. Lao Wang half-jokingly refused, changing to two businessmen, this proposal is still very tempting, but Wang Mancang is a selector, what "big table" seats, it can be said that it is not worth mentioning to him.

"I don't think you will, so let's get down to business. The fat club sat up straight, as close as possible to Lao Wang, and said: "You borrowed 300 boxes of top-grade tulip bulbs from me, which were worth about 600,000 silver horse swords at that time, and during the lease period, you must repay 300 boxes of bulbs of the same level, as well as the rental fee of 60,000 silver horse swords, I believe you are ready, right?"

Lao Wang nodded and said, "These things are coming with me to visit you, you can order them at any time if you need them." ”

"Don't say that, Mr. Van der Kamp, these things you conjured up from my 300 boxes of original capital, and everyone made money in this speculation in the usual simple way, including those of us, just you, who made a profit by playing short, to be honest, at first I didn't know that you were the one who could use such a trick, otherwise, you would have mortgaged this gadget to me, and I wouldn't have done it, do you know how busy I have been this day? The fat head said, and took out something from a delicate small box—the collateral that the official king used to mortgage the loan—a black clay pot.

The fat head of the meeting directly handed the clay pot to Lao Wang, looking very bold and atmospheric, and he didn't care that the funds and goods had not been delivered.

He clapped his hands lightly and continued: "I also heard that your White Tulip has also entered the port in Amsterdam, so you were hijacked by a ship and cargo, and you were desperate to come to me, it was also arranged in advance, right?"

Lao Wang nodded, he knew that the fat leader had entered his own state of reasoning, so he didn't make a sound, but only made a positive or negative expression of his inference.

The fat head was also very satisfied with Lao Wang's performance, he usually hated people interrupting him when he was talking.

So he continued: "That kid Bergstone shouldn't be your man, you're not strong enough to control the Swedish navy, you're in a cooperative relationship, right? ”

Lao Wang was a little surprised by the fat leader's analytical ability, and involuntarily nodded in affirmation, this person not only has strong reasoning ability, but also knows every task with a little prestige at sea, it seems that it is no accident that he is the head of the East India Company.

"However, the person who robbed you for the second time was not sent out by me, I just spread the news that there were 300 boxes of top-grade tulips on your ship, and the rest was arranged by the people who listened to the news, to tell you the truth, according to my simple calculation, just returning 300 boxes of tulips and the interest generated by the lease are enough for you to drink a pot, and you will never return it on time, besides, it is still too rude for me to do something to use force for a Skula's clay pot. The fat head shook his head and said with some self-deprecation: "I often educate my businessmen not to despise anyone, but I didn't expect that I didn't understand this sentence myself." ”

Lao Wang looked at the fat leader's expression, this guy's performance is not like lying, the second tulip raid against him should be sent by other forces, and in the end of the battle, the captain of the other party swallowed a bomb and committed suicide, without revealing useful information, but these problems are irrelevant now.

"Can I ask how much money you used to buy back these tulips?" asked the fat head curiously.

"Fifty percent of the price. ”

"Then your current worth should have increased fivefold, about 300,000 silver horse swords, which is very good, but you are still too soft-hearted, our lease period has not yet expired, you can wait until these flowers are worthless before you sell, and at that time, maybe you can still pick these things up in the garbage heap." The fat head frowned and shook his head, as if he disliked Lao Wang's style of doing things too idealistic.

Lao Wang was helpless in his heart, the look on his face remained unchanged, the fat head was an interactive character in this world, no matter how amazing his knowledge was, it was limited compared to Lao Wang, and he couldn't say that Lao Wang co-authored: I am a person from a different world than you, and I need to complete my task in advance, so I didn't wait for the trough to shoot tulips.

The fat head smiled again, and seemed to understand something: "But the mall is like this, there will always be various disturbances when making decisions, as long as you don't take regret medicine, and then let this chagrin affect your judgment later, that's fine." He took the initiative to clink glasses with Lao Wang and said: "I don't think you have this kind of trouble, which shows that you had your own considerations at that time." ”

Lao Wang took a sip of brandy, the amber liquor into his throat, the brandy fermented in oak barrels is wonderful, mellow and delicious, fragrant and rich, it is really the top grade, Lao Wang himself did not find it, he has from the beginning of this kind of foreign things to sneer, into a sincere appreciation.

"I'm now assuming that your range of activities is in the North Sea and the Baltic Sea, and the arrival records show that you are from Hamburg, the Swedes and you are partners, and Stockholm can't run, and the other is Miss Argoth, who you stayed in Amsterdam, and you are an allied chamber of commerce, so I guess there must be these three places where you started the tulip collapse, but if you don't bring the English with such a lively thing, it is inappropriate, then you should have arrangements in London, right? Your own strength is not enough, you should still borrow from me, right?" In the first sentence of the fat meeting, seeing Lao Wang's expression calmly with a little admiration, knowing that he was right, he stood up and began to pace in the room with interest.

"First of all, and in the case of guaranteeing the interests of the Swedes real power, you are singing empty tulips in Stockholm, and His Majesty Gustav II must have been moved by Bergstone's words, right? The fat head was a little embarrassed, but he quickly realized that he was a little off-topic, and apologized slightly: "I'm sorry, I'll continue." ”

He began to move his steps regularly, and at the same time said: "The tulip market in Sweden has collapsed like this, before the arrival of the Raiders, you should have used it as an introduction to sell some of the tulips in Hamburg, and the time was just stuck before the arrival of the Raiders, and you planted a consciousness in the hearts of the Germanic people to let them know that tulips can be sold." ”

The expression on the fat leader's face became excited, and he said to Lao Wang: "Speaking of which, I have to say that your previous prodigal wreckage in Hamburg, that performance is really beautiful, you have successfully changed from a weapon merchant to a darling of hot topics, you have taken advantage of me, and also used people's curiosity, so your behavior will attract the attention of the market, in fact, your amount of tulips is not a large volume in normal transactions, how can you play a role in shorting?" You just want people to think of your actions when the real collapse comes, to make them afraid, to make them unable to judge, and to follow the trend of the collapse, let me say again, very beautiful. ”

Lao Wang has to wonder if this thing is Takenaka's upper body at this moment, this collapse and eye-catching plan was concocted by him and the little guy, and now the fat head guessed not bad at all, he knows everything about his behavior, but why didn't he make a move on himself before?

"Your play is so good, I have so many things every day, how can I be interested in your entertainment life, in fact, at the beginning, I thought that you had completely given up, so you would have such a decadent move, in fact, after today's busy work, I had time to associate these together, until you came to visit, I was officially sure that it was you. ”

The fat man smiled slyly, not knowing whether it was the fireplace or the liquor, which reflected his eyes red.
