Chapter 253: Bang, the bubble bursts
The famous philosopher Aminos once said that some things have only the first time and the umpteenth time.
Therefore, since the first order contract for "pre-purchase Poseidon Stone" was signed, it has opened a new door for countless people.
It can only be said that the inspiration of thinking is very important, as soon as this matter spreads, everyone seems to have enlightened, and they have imitated this model, first pay a part of the deposit, and then get a certain amount of Poseidon Stone at a real-time price, and then make up the full amount when it expires.
Of course, this situation is more likely to appear in people who don't have cash on hand, no way, no money but want to participate in the trading of Poseidon Stone, this seems to be the best way...... However, the truth is that even if they have cash in hand, most people will still choose this way.
Anyway, the market for Poseidon Stone is very good, how can anyone really worry about losses? These contracts are money!
Take advantage of the time to sign more now, and you will have a good life in the future!
Not only buyers, but also sellers of all sizes have begun to gradually abandon spot transactions as time goes by, and even many sellers have played the sign of "only signing contracts" - you don't have cash, I don't have so many goods in my hands, you can only make a profit by selling to one person, and if you sign a contract, you can sell to ten or twenty or even more people at the same time, isn't it?
As for the issue of due delivery, they don't care, after all, the delivery time is different, and secondly, the seller can also exist as a buyer, so wouldn't it be good for me to go to someone else to sign the order?
Some smart guys have even learned such tricks as proof of assets, are you afraid that I don't have any money? Let's see how many contracts I have! When it expires, it's all white gold and silver, what are you worried about?
Soon, the Poseidon market became a contract market, at a glance, there are very few transactions that are really still in the balance of money and goods, but contracts are flying all over the sky, and a contract of "pre-purchase xxx Poseidon Stone" can even be used as currency to circulate among people.
Anyway, the contract is written in black and white, and it also bears the seal of the royal family or the Holy See, who cares if the buyer or seller on the order does not honor it?
If it's really a lie, when the time comes, go to the court, but the sister has your good juice to eat.
"Gu Jian Gong, now that this Seagod Stone is being bought and sold, how can I become more and more incomprehensible?"
As an event in the limelight in the main city, the little empress Dongfang Xiao naturally also paid close attention to it, and whenever Cheng Gujian came to meet him, she would chat with him more or less.
I can't help but pay attention to her, firstly, as the king of a country, such a big matter is naturally on her desk at all times, and secondly, the trend of trading Poseidon Stone is really popular everywhere, and it has long been no longer a small fight between civilians, and many courtiers have also participated in it.
Of course, they also smelled the smell of money, and they began to be dissatisfied with just collecting ornaments and ornaments of the Poseidon Stone for ornamental purposes - the fact is that many people are nothing more than vassals and elegance, and they don't really like this shiny Poseidon stone products, sorry, they can't appreciate it.
But you can make a profit from it, which is a good thing that everyone likes, and under such a trend, the wealthy nobles and lords have finally put down their bodies and started to end.
Most of the transactions of the ordinary people revolve around the most inferior white Poseidon Stone, sometimes mixed with a little medium-quality Poseidon Stone, which can be regarded as the top of the sky...... In the final analysis, they are not big, even if they are carried away by the booming market, they don't have the courage to sign orders dozens or even hundreds of times higher than themselves.
Don't say that you have to make money by yourself, even if you disassemble and sell the seven aunts and eight aunts in your family plus Xiaoqiang into parts, you can't get so much money!
Even if they can raise more money by signing out or holding orders, they are more inclined to stay in the secondary market, preferring to trade more defective products than consider those sky-high prices of dark blue sea god stones.
After all, under the coaxing of everyone, the price of Poseidon Stone has long been unknown to where it is.
Remember the price at the beginning, right? Fifty silver coins of the inferior Poseidon Stone, five gold coins of the medium Poseidon Stone, and fifty gold coins of the best dark blue Superior Poseidon Stone...... Interestingly, today's market price, at first glance, seems to remain at this level, without any movement.
But.
However, the unit of measurement has long since changed, and it used to be calculated according to 100 grams, but now it is ...... It's one gram.
A hundredfold!
It has only been exactly a month since the first Poseidon Stone was sold!
With such terrifying profits, I'm afraid that if you look at the entire Hualan Empire, you won't be able to find a second more profitable business!
The nobles and lords are not worried about this problem, first, their family background is thick, and the common people dare not buy and sell the high-grade Seagod Stone, they don't care, they have scraped the land for so many years...... Ah no, generations have worked so hard for so long, and this little money is not a problem at all!
Second, it is also the natural sense of superiority in their hearts that is at work, and the inferior people in coarse linen clothes are trading inferior or medium sea god stones, and we also trade these, isn't it a loss?
If you want to buy it, buy the big one!
When Dongfang Xiao went to court yesterday, he saw a minister who was happy like a flower, and when he asked, he knew that it was because he had just signed an order for a high-grade Seagod Stone with a full price of 300 grams, and the price was 15,000 gold coins!
This number...... Enough to buy a beautifully decorated castle with its own gardens in the Upper Town, the most prosperous part of the Empire.
It stands to reason that the difference between how many Poseidon stones to trade and what kind of Poseidon stones to trade is really just the price, those who have money buy more and those who have no money buy less...... But I don't know what's going on, it's this incident that suddenly makes the little empress feel a little more uneasy.
I always felt that something was wrong, but she really couldn't say it.
That's why her expression looks a little dignified today, and the whole person is frowning all the time.
"Including the contracts issued by all parties, there should also be your permission from Gu Jian Gong, right?"
"Back to Your Majesty, yes."
Cheng Gujian replied calmly.
He himself didn't have the heart to get involved in this matter, but as the nominal ruler of the imperial royal family, of course, he had to keep an eye on it at all times.
At that time, this contract model was reported by the people below, and after thinking about it, he also agreed to such a thing.
After all, there doesn't seem to be any problem here, Xu Shifang really smashed real money, and he didn't know where he got so much money...... Thinking about it like this, he was even a little unpleasant, Brother Xu, your family is so big, and you only brought two boxes of gifts when you came to visit, is it a little less?
And the prosperity of the Poseidon Stone market is also in his eyes, just now said that a minister signed an order for a castle at a full price with a wave of his hand, but the earlier fact is that someone has already exchanged a paper contract for a good residence in the lower city, which caused a small sensation at that time.
In fact, it was this incident that completely relieved him, and the previously approved contract orders may still be stuck, but now the words have long been relaxed.
"Is that ......?"
Dongfang Xiao nodded thoughtfully, "Since you also approve of Gu Jian Gong, then I can be relieved a lot." ”
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty."
Cheng Gujian said seriously, "In Yichen's opinion, the price of Poseidon Stone may not rise all the time, but normal price fluctuations are inevitable, even if it is cattle and sheep grain traded between the people, the price will change every day, isn't it?" ”
"Then I don't care?"
These words dispelled many of the little queen's concerns, and her brows finally relaxed.
Of course, there is another meaning to this, you are responsible for something, right?
Cheng Gujian bowed slightly, acquiescing to this meaning.
"That'll do."
Dongfang Xiao also nodded, "Sure enough, you can rely on the Grand Duke...... By the way, I asked you to send a letter to Xu Shi saying that you wanted to see him, why haven't you seen a response yet? ”
"Back to Your Majesty, Xu Shi's reply came only two days ago, and the minister has been busy with official business recently, but he forgot about it for a while."
Grand Duke Gu Jian was stunned for a moment, and then took out a document and handed it over, "The letter says that his injuries have healed, of course he has to come to see His Majesty, and he will leave in about two days." ”
"Okay, he's got a big shelf."
There was a little bit of dissatisfaction in the tone of the little empress, no matter how she said that she was also the head of a country, even if you were a foreigner, I took the initiative to see you, you would be too faceless to delay for so long, right?
"Then the Grand Duke, pay more attention, and when he comes to the main city, let him come to see me as soon as possible."
"Yes, the minister is retiring."
At the end of the daily interview, Cheng Gujian got up and saluted, and strode away.
Dongfang Xiao was still sitting in front of the desk in the study, his right hand was clenched tightly, and he even trembled a little under the force.
The truth is that it is not that she "feels that there is a problem and cannot understand", but that she has vaguely thought of a possibility.
The price of Poseidon Stone has fluctuated, which is certainly an acceptable thing.
But what if this undulating dive is too big...... What will be the consequences?
This seems to be a problem that no one pays attention to, and no one will pay attention to this kind of problem, and now that the market is very good, it is going to be beaten to say that this kind of thing is not conducive to trading.
What is the purpose of this? Can't you afford to buy Poseidon Stone? It's almost there.
But even if she realized this, she herself didn't seem to have any intention of stopping it.
Because if that's the case, maybe ......
This is the only chance she has in this life.
She's going to take a gamble.
……
Silver Pine Island.
Xu Shi is in a good mood today, or he has been in a good mood these days.
After all, Yinsong Island is thriving, and with the endorsement of Pan Cheng, the owner of the island, the islanders have also accepted the electrical circuit transformation, and the daily facilities of every household are now beginning to develop towards electrification.
Speaking of this thing is quite interesting, originally in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, when the signal tower was built and the circuit was laid, these things were done relatively hidden, especially the back mountain was simply sealed, and many islanders didn't know that there was such a thing.
When all this is completely completed, everyone is also in the clouds, and naturally there is a bit of a veil of mystery...... So when Pan Cheng issued the instruction for circuit transformation, many people were still a little resistant, or they preserved their natural fear of the unknown.
But after experiencing the convenience of electrification, any worries have disappeared.
All this is too convenient, and it doesn't cost money - Xu Shi doesn't have the heart to charge them extra electricity bills or anything, the power system is popular, and there is basically no need for batteries or anything, including power generation, which is also based on hydropower, which can be regarded as gratuitous assistance to Pan Cheng, the big brother.
On the side of Night Sin City, Su Lin and the others have also arranged manpower, and talent assistance can be in place at any time.
There is a kind of vitality, the beauty of all things.
And he is now playing a game with his good daughter - I don't know where Xia Ke'an got his interest, and suddenly offered to go to the beach with him to play, so of course he, as a father, is not easy to refuse.
"You're really ten years old, aren't you......"
But having said that, looking at the old aunt who was happily piling up sand and building a castle there, he couldn't help but want to complain.
"Say what?"
The white-haired Lori glanced at him, and the movements of his hands kept moving, "Stinky Dad said he was going to take me to the amusement park before?" Did you go, did you go? ”
"I know that you took Su Lin there! The big liar who doesn't keep his word! ”
As soon as he thought of this, Xia Ke'an became angry inexplicably, grabbed a handful of sand and threw it at him.
Xu Shi avoided it with a weak heart, he really couldn't refute this matter......
"Next time, next time."
"Whoever wants you to be sure next time, hurry up and help me build the castle."
The old aunt pursed her lips, but she didn't really blame him, "I don't care about a lot of adults, why don't you have a good time with me today." ”
"Good, good."
Xu Shi smiled, walked over and hugged him in his arms, "Oh, I also prepared soapy water for you, do you want to blow bubbles?" ”
"Yes!"
The white-haired Lori also smiled and took the tool to have fun.
Look, Xiao Ke'an can be satisfied so easily, where can I find such a good daughter?
The good daughter will still care about her bad father, and she can't help but ask, "Speaking of which, did the little empress you like send you a letter?" Can't wait to meet people, right? ”
"What do you mean by the little empress I like?"
Xu Shi sweated soybeans, "Is it itchy again?" ”
"Isn't it? She's just the type you'd expect. ”
Xia Ke'an grimaced, "You don't have to hide it, I'm not jealous...... Hey, don't play with my hair! ”
"Just play, just play."
Xu Shi took her hair into the shape of a ring, dipped it in some soapy water and began to blow bubbles, "Who cares if you are jealous or not, do you have a daughter who eats daddy's jealousy?" ”
"Didn't you? Isn't there an old saying that a daughter is a father's Q in his last life...... What's going on? ”
The old aunt also realized that she was a little gaffe, but she didn't think about making up for it, but went along with it.
"Then if you say that, I'll really eat it, you can give me an accurate word, what the hell is going to do?"
"I'm sure I'm going to see it."
Xu Shi scratched her hair on her face, and replied lightly, "Otherwise, what are you busy working for so long?" ”
As he spoke, he blew another bubble out, then reached out and touched it gently.
Bang.
The fragile bubble was punctured in an instant, and the beautiful light refracted disappeared in an instant.
