Li Baosheng worked diligently in the fields for half his life, but because his family was poor, he had not been able to marry his mother-in-law, and when he was in his early thirties, Brother Cao in the village suddenly ran to his house and asked him: "Do you want a wife?" As long as you open Chrysostom, I'll send it to you later. ”

"Then you can send it."

Li Baosheng didn't think much about it at the time, he just felt that his family was so poor that he couldn't open the pot, his brothers, relatives, and neighbors all disliked him, where would there be a girl willing to marry into his family.

But it didn't work out, Lao Cao really sent him an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl.

It's a refugee from Midstate in the north.

This girl is not only handsome, but also literate, and was once a rich lady, but she was only reduced to this field because of the war disaster.

Li Baosheng, as an older leftover man, happily married a girl. The rats in the empty rice jar had to be caught and roasted and eaten by him, of course, there was no money for any wedding, but he just said it in the village, and the two lived together.

When the girl came, she had an extra mouth to eat, and she gave him two cubs, Li Baosheng was digging in the field, and after paying the rent, he couldn't grow four mouths of rations at all. In the end, he simply ran from Rock County to Qingcheng Town to work, and at that time, Zhengzhiqing Town set up a factory, and there were job opportunities everywhere.

Li Baosheng found a job to make screws on the production line, worked day and night, and finally saved a sum of money after a few years, although it was not much, but he was very grateful to His Royal Highness King Qi, it was this job opportunity, and these wages supported their family of four.

Therefore, he often ran to the square in front of the town government to bow and kowtow to the statue of King Qi.

A few days ago, his daughter-in-law divorced him, and he had to go home and go to the yamen to divorce the marriage.

He knows that Guyi County has also developed in the past two years, and Rock County is close to Deqing Town, and the momentum of development is also very good.

This year, Rock County also set up a rock station, his daughter-in-law because of her literacy, applied for the station window conductor, can receive more than 200 yuan a month, dress and temperament have come up, a mouth is how the colleagues are at home, how the sisters are husbands.

Li Baosheng could see that his daughter-in-law had flown up the branches, and her vision was high, and she couldn't look down on him as a stinky screwman.

Today, although he had already expected it, he really went to the yamen to rip off the divorce certificate, and he walked on the street in a daze for a while, and the whole person had a feeling of emptiness.

"Li Baosheng, you have to cheer up, there are still two children for you to raise!"

Li Baosheng patted his cheek and walked towards a fly restaurant on the side of the road. This kind of small shop on the edge of the factory is facing these manual laborers in the factory, not to mention whether it is clean or not, at least the portions are large and cheap, otherwise they will not survive here at all.

I ordered a fried pickle and chili batter, and when I was sweating with a fine hair of cornmeal steamed buns, my co-worker Wang Datou ran in like a gust of wind.

"Ouch, big head, you run slower, it's freezing over here, don't fall."

The shopkeeper shouted.

Wang Datou ignored the shopkeeper, rushed straight to Li Baosheng, and patted him on the shoulder: "Baosheng, go, follow me to Dongyang County!" ”

"Don't make a fuss, you have to go to work in the afternoon."

Li Baosheng was not interested, and was inhaled by the fried red pepper spicy "Sihasha", but he felt very warm and enjoyable on his body, and even the heart that pulled out the cold became less uncomfortable.

"What kind of work! In the afternoon, we took the train to Dongyang County, and the stocks we bought rose by !! ”

Wang Datou was very excited, he directly held Li Baosheng's head with both hands, didn't let him eat, and grabbed his wrist hard, but he wanted to grab him and leave.

"Stocks? We bought shares of the First Steel Plant the other day? Gone up? How much has it gone up? ”

Li Baosheng looked at Wang Datou like this, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

Just a few days ago, someone claiming to be someone from the Dongyang Exchange came to Qingcheng Town to peddle shares of the First Iron and Steel Plant.

Li Baosheng has never been in contact with them, and directly treats these people as liars. Originally, she didn't have enough money, and she was counted out by her mother-in-law every day, saying that the money she earned was not enough to buy her a beautiful dress, so she could only wear a blue sky cloth to go out, and she just went to work and was looked down upon.

So, he didn't even think about buying it at first.

It's just that later, Wang Datou didn't know how he was fooled, and he wanted to buy stocks, and he said in Li Baosheng's ear every day like tap water.

In addition, at that time, his daughter-in-law began to divorce him, and her mood fell into a trough, and she had both the idea of breaking the jar and breaking it in her heart, and also with some expectations of wanting to get ahead, Wang Datou picked up her savings and went with him to buy 1,200 shares from the salesmen of those exchanges.

"How much has it gone up? It has risen more than three hundred times!! ”

Wang's head and neck were red, the green tendons on his forehead burst out, the excitement in his eyes had nowhere to vent, and the whole person was in an inexplicable excitement!

"More than three hundred?"

Li Baosheng was confused, and subconsciously calculated how much more than three hundred times it was.

He didn't have much education, and he didn't come up with a number for a long time, but he only knew that the number was very big.

"More than 700,000 Wen, more than 700 taels of silver!!"

Wang Datou said to him with his throat between his throats.

"What!?"

Li Baosheng's face turned red visibly with the naked eye, as if he had drunk two catties of wine, and his whole eyes were dark, and he was about to fall backwards.

Fortunately, he was supported by Wang Datou.

Immediately, the two men ran wildly towards the door.

"Hey, hey, haven't paid yet!"

The shopkeeper shouted.

"Keep the account first, and I'll give you ten times when I'll come back!!"

Wang Datou shouted without looking back.

"Ten times? The money owed by your king has not been repaid, and he is pretending to be a wolf with a big tail. ”

The shopkeeper saw that they had run away, and he couldn't catch up, so he couldn't help muttering a few words.

"But what's going on with this stock?"

A few days ago, there were also salesmen who came to sell stocks. He wanted to buy it several times, after all, the first steel factory is on this street, it is something that can be seen and touched, and he heard the salesman say that it can be doubled if it can be listed, he was moved to buy it, but was stopped by the family mouth.

After all, it's just a piece of paper, and one dare to sell for two cents, which is enough to buy several big white flour buns.

"No one's money is blown by the wind, you deceive others! Get out! Get out! Get out! ”

At that time, the family took a broom and scolded him, and directly kicked people out.

It just so happened that it wasn't a regular meal, and there was no one in the store at this time, so he closed the door leisurely and walked out.

Not long away, I heard someone discussing stocks on the side of the road, and I smiled and took an apple from the stall of an acquaintance next to me, and came up.

The acquaintance was feeling sorry for the apple he had taken away, and he saw the shopkeeper in the crowd make a "quack" sound, and fell straight back.

The acquaintance hurriedly ran over, pinched the middle of the person to give him a good breath, and the shopkeeper who had turned his back on his back finally woke up leisurely, and said: "Vixen!" I can't beat you today!! ”

As he spoke, he jerked his acquaintance away, staggered back to his shop.

"What's going on? The one in the family is stealing people outside? ”

The eyes of acquaintances flashed with gossip.

The joys and sorrows of human beings are not connected, on the square in front of the Dongyang Exchange, the voices of people are boiling, the emotions are like boiling water in an iron pot, and the excited emotions turn into sounds, as if they want to overturn the roof of the exchange.

"It's up! It's up! It's up again!! ”

"Oops!! Sold early!! I'm selling early!! ”

"Why is it going up again!! I haven't gotten in the car yet! I haven't gotten in the car yet!! ”

"Seven hundred and ten! 710 cents per share!! My God, it's already gone up 355 times!! ”

"This stock is too good to make money!! But the price is too high, and I can only buy one share with my money!! ”

"Who still has a ticket in his hand, our lord 750 Wen a share, buy it at a high price! No bullying! Trade for real money! ”

Someone shouted in the crowd.

But the crowd was reluctant to sell, and after shouting around, they couldn't collect a few tickets.

There were also some gentiles in the crowd, looking at these fanatical Chinese with shocked faces, not knowing what they were doing staring at the big screen with dancing numbers.

Religious worship?

But it seems to be full of copper stench!

"I'm rich! I'm rich! ”

Brown shouted excitedly, clutching in his hand a stack of beautifully printed bills with a majestic gate painted on it, and the words "Qingcheng No. 1 Iron and Steel Factory" written on it.

A few days ago, he finally applied for a visa and could come to Yunmeng County to walk.

When he didn't find a gambling house, he happened to hear the salesman selling stocks, so he bought some of them, and it turned out to be the most money he had ever made in his life.

He is different from most sailors' dream of buying a boat and hiring a crew to go to sea, he wants to get the identity of Jingguo, and then settle down in Jingguo as a Jingguo person!

In the box on the third floor of the exchange, Chen Chunfu, the director of the steel plant, sat near the window, holding a cup of tea, looking at the frenzied crowd in the square outside.

"Congratulations to Director Chen, I'm afraid the steel plant will no longer be short of money."

Opposite him, Hu Jixiang of the Hu family firm congratulated him.

"I should congratulate the acting director, Dongyang Exchange, this time it is a real hit!"

Chen Chunfu arched his hand at a man with a white face, wearing a long robe, and a bookish appearance, who looked to be in his thirties.

"It's also thanks to Director Chen, if it weren't for the First Iron and Steel Plant, it would be difficult to have the grand occasion of these two days."

Dai Qing was originally a professor of economics at Yuntai University and was a scholar-type official.

"This should be thanks to the wisdom of the prince, the first iron and steel plant, as the first listed company, is the prince single-handedly, in order to give the dividends of development to the people, and take advantage of this opportunity to make the exchange an instant hit."

Chen Chunfu arched his hand towards the south and said seriously.

"The prince's foresight is really admirable!"

Dai Qing also admired it, and said with a true face.

Hu Jixiang saw that the two people in front of him were so politically correct, and hurriedly said: "What Director Chen and Acting Director said is true, the prince is like a beacon guiding the people of Wuzhou to move forward, the direction of the development of Wuzhou Province, and the savior that the entire Jingguo is desperately hoping for!" ”

Chen Chunfu and Dai Qing looked at Hu Jixiang at the same time: "What the shopkeeper Hu said is true. ”

"Acting director, look at Hu's firm, is there any chance to be listed and traded."

Hu Jixiang took the opportunity to say.

"Hu's cloth shop is doing a lot now, I heard that in addition to stores all over Wuzhou, there are also cloth shops in Wanzhou, Hegu, Yuzhou, Jian'an, Pingshan, Chujiang and other provinces. In addition, weaving factories and garment factories were also opened in Qingcheng Town, Lexian County, and Yile County. ”

Dai Qing said.

"The acting director actually understands my little cloth business so clearly, he is really diligent and loves the people, and he is well-informed."

Hu Jixiang praised and said.

"Hahahaha."

Dai Qing said with a smile: "Boss Hu is too modest, Hu's cloth shop is now second to none among private capital, understanding private capital is a mountain that cannot be bypassed at all, if I don't understand it anymore, it will be really dereliction of duty." ”

Dai Qing knew in his heart that this was because Hu Jixiang saw the benefits of going public, so he complimented himself like this. In the past, the exchange was just a place to display information and match transactions, and they would never have received such courtesy from these big businessmen.

He rubbed the corners of his eyebrows vigilantly, in the next few days, with the heat and fermentation of the stock market, a large number of businessmen will definitely gradually have a clear understanding of the exchange, and they will immediately come around like a cat smelling fishy, and they must cheer up.

The officials of the Department of Integrity who had just moved in early this morning were afraid that they were just here to keep an eye on them.

In the days that followed, the stock finally stabilized in a price range after multiplying 380 times.

As Dai Qing imagined, the Dongyang Exchange has deeply shocked the hearts of the majority of businessmen in the past few days.

No one is a person who lives in a vacuum, the ability of these businessmen to ask for help has been pointed to the transformation realm, and many people have to see it on behalf of Qing, in just a few days, the threshold of his house has been trampled by these people!

For this situation, although Dai Qing was tired of coping, he knew in his heart that the Dongyang Exchange had truly entered the hearts of the majority of businessmen, and it had also deeply entered the eyes of the people in this carnival of benefit.

In the future, as long as the work is carried out step by step, the Dongyang Exchange will be completed.

"Master, the New Year is approaching, when I went to Master Zheng's house a few days ago, I saw Mrs. Zheng buy a new object, and there are still people singing in it, which is very good."

After Dai Qing dealt with a merchant from Chujiang that day, his wife said when he sorted out his clothes before going out.

"Gramophone? Isn't there one in my hometown, go home in a few days, and bring it back after the year. ”

Dai Qing said.

"It's not a gramophone, it's something called a radio. I heard that it is produced in Qingcheng Town, and it has been sold to Yunmeng County these days, so you can pay attention to it when you go to the street. ”

Madame instructed.

"Okay, I'll pay attention."

Dai Qing carried a briefcase and went out with an entourage.

He didn't have to pay attention to it, when he walked past a newly opened store not far from the exchange, he heard a melodious music coming from inside, and an excerpt from "The Legend of the White Snake" was playing, and many people were already watching in front of the door.
