Chapter 490 Do You Dare To Think?
Zhu Di may just think that what Ma Yu has done is a good deal.
But Zhang Anshi knew that what was involved here was an unimaginable fortune.
In this era, Ma Yu is almost an indispensable figure. He can not only gain the trust of the gentry, but also possess the eloquence enough to promote shipping investment to a certain class of gentry.
In addition, there is that he himself is a benchmark figure in business.
These things are all gathered on this Ma Yu, and the effect it brings... If I have to use an analogy, then it is equal to...
In this world, someone has opened a stock market, and there are many people with wealth hidden in their families who are holding currency and want to invest at this time, but in this stock market, there is only one stock.
Yes... no competitors, no natural enemies.
The concept of scholars has both a cautious side and a far-sighted side.
They are not ordinary people, they can eat the last meal and think about the next meal. They represent the rise and fall of a family, and what needs to be considered is the long-term thing. They not only think about the present, but also think about their future generations .
This means that after losing their investment in land, they have to find a new outlet.
But right now, they don't know anything about business, so... Ma Yu's outlet has become their life-saving straw.
Anxiety is a terrible thing. Even if someone has the wealth to eat and drink for a lifetime, when a sense of anxiety strikes, it is enough to defeat all sane people.
What's more, this kind of anxiety, in the eyes of these scholars who have no foresight and immediate worries every day, this kind of anxiety has more stamina.
Zhu Di was still surprised, he was calculating what these twelve shares meant, and then asked Zhang Anshi, "Zhang Qing, Qixia Commercial Company, how many shares does this ship company own?"
Zhang Anshi said: "Your Majesty, there are 30 shares. The delivery made a few days ago cost 50 taels of silver."
30 shares, accounting for [-]% of the shipping company.
That is... 300 million taels of silver... Zhu Di's face suddenly showed joy.
This is equivalent to earning 250 million for nothing?
Zhu Di quickly concealed his joy.
After all, this is just a theoretical price, whether it can be sold, and whether anyone is willing to buy it is another matter.
But... now it seems... Through the small window, Zhu Di showed joy when he saw the long queue of people who came to buy shares one after another.
The guys in the store have already started distributing many brochures, which are similar to prospectuses.
It records the income and development of the shipping company for several years, and at the same time describes the future prospects of shipping, and explains how many seagoing ships will be ordered, how many manpower will be recruited, how many warehouses will be purchased, etc. after this round of financing.
There was a lot of discussion among the people, and there were many scholars wearing silk, repeating in their mouths "buying a boat... I understand this, it is actually buying land." ', 'It's a place in a disaster year, and it's a huge profit', 'There are countless shipping companies in the world. I heard that there are also a number of ships built in the dock every year, but there is still a shortage of freight. I heard that many merchants want to go to sea, but they can't find them. Boat. '
Some merchants said: "It's not just that, business is like this, it's about scale, for example, if this shipping company can place an order for 1 ships at a time, it will be a huge order for all shipyards in the world." , in order to accept this transaction, there must be a discount. If other shipping companies need 500 taels of silver to buy a ship, it may only be [-] taels at Ma's Shipping Company. What's more... For goods, if Ma’s shipping company has more ships, it can stably load and transport with big merchants. Even if the price is higher than other shipping companies, everyone can accept it... Once this business reaches a certain level, the profit will be more and less. Second, the most important thing is stability."
"Next year's profit, I'm afraid there will be millions..."
There was a lot of noise outside, which made many people's blood boil.
Zhang Anshi said to Zhu Di in the ear room, "Your Majesty, look, how happy they are with their purchase."
Looking over the past, Zhu Di saw that those who had already bought stocks looked excited, as if they were picking up ingots on the ground, and couldn't help but smile, and said, "I never expected that these scholars also know how to manage money." .”
As soon as these words came out, Chen Deng, who was sitting upright in the corner, changed slightly.
He had an awe-inspiring look.
But at this moment, although he was still squinting, his face was slightly distorted, as if he was bearing something in his heart.
Zhang Anshi said: "Of course, all the prosperity in the world is for profit. These scholars, if Your Majesty asks them to borrow 1000 taels of silver, they may not be willing to give it. But if you buy this stock, they will probably jump up and be very happy. It can be seen from this that, what kind of benevolence and morality, what is filled with righteous indignation, isn't it all a joke? The New Deal is harmful to them, they will be angry, and this shipping will be good for them, they will be overjoyed, so those who belong to the saints, who care about anything, are also afraid Throw it to the country of Java."
Chen Deng snorted softly in his nose, but the sound was like the moaning of mosquitoes.
Zhu Di nodded, and couldn't help but smiled and said to Yang Rongren and the others: "Seeing you, Zhu Qing, I'm afraid you want to buy some too."
Hu Guang immediately said: "The minister...is a minister, how could he..."
Seeing that he was not on the road, Zhu Di put on a straight face and ignored him.
Hu Guang was bored with the discussion, so he simply stopped talking.
Wu Tong, on the other hand, was both embarrassed and apprehensive, but...it seemed that he was weighing something in his mind at this moment, and he was a little lost.
Zhang Anshi smiled at this moment, and said, "Mr. Chen..."
He actually looked at Chen Deng.
For this Chen Deng, Zhu Di and his ministers always seemed to be like air, turning a blind eye.
Zhang Anshi continued: "Mr. Chen thinks...how is this shipping business?"
Chen Deng said indifferently: "It's a trick of the bad guys."
"Don't worry about whether he is a villain or not, just talk about the deal." Zhang Anshi smiled.
Chen Deng tried his best to suppress his emotions, opened his eyes slightly, but felt that he had nothing to refute.
It was only under Zhang Anshi's gaze that he sighed: "They may have just lost their minds for a while."
Zhang Anshi said: "Chen Gong thinks, relying on these people, can we achieve great things?"
Chen Deng: "..."
Chen Deng's heart is far less peaceful than his appearance. In fact, at this moment, his heart has already been turned upside down.
But at this moment, a loud voice suddenly came from outside.
But it seems that some staff said: "I'm very sorry, according to the rules...only [-] shares will be released this time. As for the others, please keep an eye on the announcement of the shipping company."
When this statement came out, everyone was lost.
Especially those who put on a long dragon can't help but yell.
After all, after waiting for so long, in the process of queuing, I was studying the brochures, and I was discussing the income of the boat with the people in front and behind the line.
Although I was a little apprehensive in my heart, worried about whether it would be unreliable, but after all, I was still attracted by the future benefits.
But now...they don't sell it all of a sudden, isn't that anxious?
Amidst the noise, although the chaotic people made various noises, most of them were scholars after all, so there was no trouble.
Seeing this, Zhu Di thought it was a pity, and he felt that he could sell as much as he could, why he was still hesitating here, the money should be in his pocket.
Zhang Anshi saw him, but smiled at Chen Deng: "Mr. Chen...what do you think?"
Chen Deng's face twitched, but he still didn't speak after all.
However, after the chaos, people did not seem to disperse.
But still here, muttering endlessly.
If you can buy it, you look happy, but if you can't buy it, you are downcast.
It seems that some people have seen some clues. They seem to think that since this stock is so hot, it is unknown when the next sale will be. If it is true... the huge profits as promised, once the opportunity is missed, they may regret it.
Immediately, someone looked for the smiling person: "Brother bought a lot, why don't you give ten shares to the students, and I will add a little silver, how about 11 taels of silver for one share."
As soon as these words came out, many people began to think about it.
First of all, people who want to buy stocks at a higher price, in fact, mostly feel unwilling, and come here all the time. If they don’t give it a try, they always feel that they have some regrets.
Secondly, they will not buy in large quantities, but buy ten shares, eight shares, or thirty or fifty shares. It seems that the price is a bit higher, but compared with their worth, it is actually nothing. After all...these Money, for them, is still a piece of cake, although it costs more money, it will not cause heartache.
Immediately, people flocked to the person who had already bought shares and chattered endlessly: "Yes, yes, brother bought so much, and it's okay to transfer some of them. I don't really want to make a profit, but I just want to have a taste of it." Two, try it."
The person being sought showed hesitation, because before he only thought that the stock in his hand was only ten taels of silver, but now surrounded by a group of people, his psychological price became 11 taels all of a sudden. , but he was reluctant to sell it, and shook his head immediately: "This is impossible, it was bought with great difficulty."
Someone also said with a smile: "I just want to take it back and keep it as a thought, how about this, sell me ten shares, I'm 12 taels..."
There are very few people who pay such a price.
Sure enough, someone was persuaded and immediately went to trade with that person.
All of a sudden, those who had already bought stocks were overjoyed. They sold 12 taels of 1 taels in the process of changing hands. Of course, they would not think that this kind of sporadic trading behavior might not be common, but in Psychologically, I already thought that the current price of the stock I bought for 1 taels of silver was [-] taels.
Wu Tong, who was leaning forward and sitting in the ear room, suddenly revealed a look of secret joy, but in front of the monarchs and ministers, he had to try his best to hold back and put on a look of sincerity and fear.
Zhang Anshi smiled and said, "Wu Tong, why are you laughing?"
Wu Tong was shocked and hurriedly said, "No...no, no..."
Zhang Anshi said: "It is a serious crime to deceive the emperor."
Wu Tong was scared out of his wits, and hurriedly said: "It's a grassroots... who earned 2000 taels of silver, so... so..."
Zhang Anshi laughed loudly: "Laugh if you want, why not be afraid, I made 2000 taels of silver in another hand, I'm afraid I'll laugh too."
In the ear room, the atmosphere became active.
Even Zhu Di couldn't help laughing.
Only Chen Deng's face was ashen, and he also looked annoyed when he heard the overjoyed voice coming from the shop.
At this time, his heart was even more desperate than when he was tortured.
Right at this moment...
Sudden……
Chen Deng jumped up suddenly.
Seeing this, Chen Deng got up.
Several guards subconsciously stopped him and Zhu Di.
Just now because of what happened outside, the guards were negligent, but when they saw that the prisoner was different, they were still well-trained and moved quickly.
But I never expected it.
When Chen Deng got up, he didn't run towards Zhu Di, wanting to harm Zhu Di.
Instead, like crazy, he slammed into the door and walked out.
The guards didn't expect that the prisoner didn't want to harm Sheng Jia, but turned around and wanted to escape.
Even if you want to fly up.
But Zhang Anshi said slowly: "Okay, he can't run away, it's okay to let him go out to get some air."
Seeing this, the guards looked at each other.
Zhu Di sat upright, and his face was slightly heavy at this time.
But seeing that Chen Deng ran out of the ear room all of a sudden, he shouted loudly: "My lords, my lords... you have been fooled, you have been fooled."
He screamed hysterically.
Inside the originally lively shop, there was originally a din of people's voices, but at this moment, all the sounds stopped abruptly.
Everyone looked at the uninvited guest.
Chen Deng shouted loudly: "You are all fooled, this is all a scheme, that Ma Yu... is really a treacherous and evil person, this son has already taken refuge in the imperial court, and his original intention is to absorb your money and make you... ...Losing your mind...Masters...don't fall for their tricks, they took your land and forced you to leave your hometown here, can they have any good intentions?"
Everyone was silent, looking at Chen Deng blankly.
In the ear room, Zhu Di was already furious, and the veins on his forehead were exposed.
Several imperial guards have long been waiting for orders like wolves and tigers.
Only Zhang Anshi whispered: "Your Majesty, why don't you take a look first."
Zhu Di took a deep breath and suppressed his anger.
There are two kinds of people that Zhu Di hates the most, one is to block his way of making money, and the other is to conspire against others.
But this Chen Deng has both.
Chen Deng's voice sounded again: "My lords...don't be fooled by that Ma Yu...you will turn back when you lost your way, and it will be..."
When he said this, he still wanted to speak earnestly.
But at this moment, someone's face has changed.
It was those people who had bought stocks just now, and one of them was also a Lunjin Confucian shirt, and he looked like an elegant scholar.
But at this moment, the scholar's complexion turned cold, and he stepped forward quickly, grabbed the heavy Chen Deng, raised his hand furiously and grabbed Chen Deng's head, and cursed: "Where is that?" The lunatic who came here dared to act wild here."
Many people began to show suspicion, looking flabbergasted.
But there are also many people, like this man in a shawl and Confucian shirt, with angry faces. Most of them are lucky ones. After buying stocks, they immediately cursed: "You can't buy stocks, but you are talking nonsense here, what is your intention?" .”
"Don't let this thief go!"
"This person is alarmist, and he must have plots. I can't trust Ma Gong, so should I trust you?"
Some people were so angry that they raised their fists to hit them.
These people were filled with righteous indignation, and all of them gritted their teeth.
Chen Deng was dragged by someone. His body was covered in scars. At this time, the injury was involved, and he grinned his teeth in pain. At this moment, his eyes were moist, but he couldn't help crying, and said somewhat desperately: "Don't be fooled... Don't be fooled, this is Your Majesty... and Zhang Anshi's treacherous scheme, it was Ma Yu who conspired with His Majesty and Zhang Anshi... Yes... that's them. You can check it out. If I have false words, God will hate it!"
As soon as these words came out, all of a sudden, there was no sound in the shop.
Everyone looked at Chen Deng dumbfounded.
The person in front of him actually involved the affairs of the palace.
And that An Shi...
Even the person who grabbed Chen Deng couldn't help letting go.
At this moment, Chen Deng breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "Don't fall for their tricks anymore, isn't it enough that I have been tricked by them? Please think about it...Think twice, be sure to Think twice..."
…………
In the ear chamber.
The murderous look on Zhu Di's face was getting stronger.
He couldn't bear Chen Deng to continue talking nonsense.
Yang Rong and the others couldn't help but look at each other, observing the changes in the shop.
Only Zhang Anshi smiled slightly.
……
at last……
After a short silence, someone suddenly said: "15 two shares, I bought [-] shares, who wants to sell."
"I also want to receive a hundred shares..."
The entire shop suddenly seemed to become a vegetable market entrance again.
And those scholars who wanted to yell and kill Chen Deng didn't even care about Chen Deng, and they all left.
At this time, Chen Deng was only in the corner, as if he had been forgotten by the world. He looked in disbelief at the crowd that had resumed their noisy activities.
There was disbelief in his eyes, and the pupils couldn't help shrinking. At this moment... an unbelievable emotion has arisen spontaneously.
What followed was a kind of despair, a bone-chilling despair.
"15 taels are not for sale..." The scholar who was about to hit Chen Deng just now beamed with joy, and continued: "This Qixia Commercial Firm holds [-]% of the shares. Zhang Anshi, that cannibalistic guy, he can do business at a loss, and even he also participates in the shares. It seems... Sure enough, the shipping company will make a lot of money in the future, and the students will not believe it. Brother Ma Xian, he has the guts to lie Wait, do you still have the guts to fool Qixia Trading Company, in my opinion... this boat company... is really no small matter."
"16 taels... This old man here is 16 taels... I don't want to buy too much, I only need ten shares... I think this trip is not in vain."
"No wonder you suddenly refused to sell after only selling [-] shares. It turns out..."
"Brother Liu, you and I are family friends, why don't you sell twenty shares of the foolish brother, of course, you won't be at a disadvantage..."
Chen Deng fell to the ground all of a sudden, his face was pale, and he couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Haha...haha..."
It's a pity... At this time, no one cares about him, only people are greatly regretful, and some people are ecstatic about it.
…………
It's late, sorry!
