Emperor Jing immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
It's good as long as you hold it. It's good as long as you hold it.
At a time when the world is peaceful, the people were so upset that they jumped off buildings in the street. If this gets out, wouldn't it be a slap in the face of the imperial court?
"Oh my! Marquis Jianye is really a master of foresight. He can even prepare for this in advance?"
“Strange!”
"Mr. Li, what stocks did the Marquis of Jianye buy..."
Several people were whispering behind Emperor Jing.
Emperor Jing just breathed a sigh of relief, but immediately became nervous again.
The person who jumped off the building is fine, but his stocks are in trouble!
That’s all his fortune and all the treasury money was invested in it!
During this period, he was more interested in studying stocks and encouraged many people to buy them.
Now that it has fallen, where is the face?
"Why did Xihai's trade plummet? Why is there no reason at all?"
The eunuch had just opened his mouth when another eunuch came to report from outside.
"Report! This servant has something important to report!"
"Come in!"
An eunuch entered and immediately bowed to the ground, saying, "Your Majesty, urgent news has come from Jiangling Port. There is news from overseas that Feika has been attacked by the church. Now Dajing's army is besieged in the city and dares not leave. The church has also taken out cannons to attack the city!"
Foreigners can use cannons!
The ministers were in an uproar.
Emperor Jing’s mind buzzed.
Cannon? When did this thing spread outside? The church actually has cannons!
With cannons for siege, war becomes a different matter.
No wonder... No wonder Xihai Trading’s stock price plummeted. The news must have been leaked when it entered Beijing.
Emperor Jing widened his eyes and waved his hands at the eunuch who entered the hall first, saying, "Quick! Go! Go to the stock exchange and sell all the shares of Xihai Commerce to me! Five taels, just five taels, no less!"
The eunuch said with a sad face: "Five taels are not selling, I think I heard that there are people out there who can't even sell four taels, no one is buying them and they are selling them."
What!
Emperor Jing was struck by lightning, and his expression gradually became ferocious.
Damn it! Can’t even sell 4 taels?
"Three ounces and eight cents, go! It can't be less than three ounces and five cents at least!"
"Yes, I will go right away."
The eunuch ran away in a hurry, and Emperor Jing wiped the sweat from his forehead.
I feel uneasy.
Thrilling! So thrilling! I have fought in all my life, but I have never experienced anything so exciting.
He must sell it for three taels and five cents... He bought it in batches, and he would lose money if the price was lower than this.
Li Yansong coughed and said, "Your Majesty, the situation in the West Sea has suddenly changed. Is it urgent for all officials to discuss it?"
"Send someone to notify everyone to come here to see me immediately!"
"Then the Marquis of Jianye..."
"He doesn't need to come. The exchange must be in chaos. Since he already knows about the situation, let him stay there to stabilize the situation."
......
The exchange was bustling with noise.
Most people were crying and shouting, cursing at the exchange's huge signboard.
The Xihai Trading sign has changed several times, but it is still green.
Many people have fallen into deep despair.
There were more than twenty Jinyiwei guards maintaining order in the exchange.
Fang Zhengyi sat on the third floor, frowning as he watched the chaos below.
Fortunately, the Jinyiwei got the news the fastest, and he immediately sent people to make arrangements outside the exchange.
Otherwise, I don’t know how many people would have died today.
Xihai Trading has already become one of the hottest stocks, with a series of sharp rises.
Many people who were slow to realize the situation bought at the highest point.
The sudden drop in prices has wiped out all my family assets.
They did not have much capital to begin with, and their mental endurance was poor. Some of them rushed directly to the third floor of the exchange, ready to make n consecutive jumps.
Now all the windows have been sealed and people have been assigned to guard them closely.
Those who suffered mental breakdowns were detained by the Jinyiwei in advance, so that they could accept the reality before returning home.
Otherwise, if he finds another place to commit suicide, that would be a big problem.
Forget about dying in the exchange, dying anywhere is not okay!
The exchange was established not long ago, and encountering such an incident is definitely a major blow to it.
Seeing that the people below were still complaining angrily, Fang Zhengyi couldn't help but comfort them and shouted something to the people below.
"Don't be afraid! This is a technical adjustment, it's okay! Stocks will always rise!! When others are greedy, I am afraid. When others are afraid, I increase my holdings!"
Others are greedy, I am afraid~
As soon as he finished speaking, a large wave of garbage flew directly to the third floor.
"What the hell! Which dog is making fun of me?"
"Adjustment? What the hell! The war has already started. Where can we trade in the West Sea? Do you take me as a fool?!"
"West Sea Commerce, is there anyone willing to buy it for 3 taels and 8 cents? Selling it cheap!!"
Fang Zheng retracted his head and sighed.
This bunch of damn leeks! They are useless except for fueling the panic in the stock market!
The current stock market is very rough and there is no circuit breaker mechanism. Price fluctuations are too drastic. If this kind of sentiment really spreads, who knows how many people will jump off buildings.
Got to find a way to ease the...
Just as he was frowning, a figure hurriedly ran to the third floor.
The person who came was Xu Wenshu, his hair was a little disheveled and he was holding up his robe.
When he saw Fang Zheng, his eyes narrowed and he rushed forward angrily.
He slammed the table and shouted, "Marquis Jianye! Give me an explanation!"
Fang Zheng raised his head and said in confusion, "Uh...what's the explanation? Sir Xu, you are not on duty at this time, why are you here at the stock exchange?"
Xu Wenshu's old face darkened.
what!
