The emperor leaving the palace is naturally no small matter.
However, since there was nothing to do at the moment, Emperor Jing left without hesitation.
Fang Zhengyi immediately arranged for the Jinyiwei to escort Emperor Jing on his trip, and hundreds of people changed into casual clothes and accompanied him.
As for other aspects, Fang Zheng had already made preparations in advance.
A large number of professionals have been hired to handle the regulations and procedures for the listing of this railway train, and it will be listed on the day when Emperor Jing leaves the palace.
Emperor Jing did not rush to the exchange immediately, but instead strolled around the city with great interest.
He usually stayed at home in the palace and rarely went out. Although he could learn about the situation among the people from reports, it was not as direct as seeing it with his own eyes.
Seeing the harmonious and prosperous scene among the people, Emperor Jing's mood also became much better.
It was not until after noon, after having lunch in a restaurant, that he arrived at the exchange.
The exchange was as crowded as usual, all seats had already been occupied, and most people were standing in the hall, pointing at the listings and display boards showing trading news, and discussing their experiences.
The rise and fall of stocks and information verified by the exchange will be announced here.
From time to time, a servant would come with a long pole and take down the price tags on the display board and replace them with new ones. Every time this happened, a new round of cheers would break out and the whole hall would be filled with noise.
Emperor Jing looked around and couldn't help feeling emotional.
The popularity of this thing is beyond imagination, far more than the simple two sentences in the report sent back by Guo Tianyang.
The impact is huge!
These four words kept circling in Emperor Jing's mind, and he was a little dazed for a moment.
Fang Zheng led him straight up to the third floor and came to a private room that was temporarily separated by a screen.
On one side of the screen, Xu Wenshu was sitting anxiously.
The servants immediately served the best tea, as well as snacks such as peanuts and melon seeds.
Emperor Jing looked down from a high place, remaining silent as he watched the hustle and bustle below.
Next to the screen, there were obviously some wealthy stock traders discussing stock market news.
"Yesterday I heard that a new iron mine was discovered in Longchaogou, Beilong County. It is said that the quality of the ore is very high. It has now been acquired by Yangjin Iron Mine. I predict that the stock price will rise sharply in a few days. Let's see..."
"It's unlikely. It's almost three taels per share now. The rise of Yangjin Iron Mine has gradually slowed down, and I heard that several other companies have joined the construction of the railway... It would be better to buy Taoyuan Crystal now, I think..."
“….”
Countless words came to my ears, one after another, such as structural adjustment, opening price, closing price, trading volume and other terms.
Emperor Jing felt dizzy after hearing this.
I had previously thought that I had roughly understood what this exchange was all about through the reports, but when I arrived at the site, I could only understand about 70% to 80%.
Fang Zheng leaned over and whispered, "Your Majesty, a new stock will be listed today. Something exciting is about to happen. Please watch carefully."
"Oh?" Emperor Jing put down his teacup and asked curiously, "What new shares?"
"You will know soon. I will go down and take a look first."
Emperor Jing agreed, and Fang Zheng turned around and went downstairs.
Next to the railing on the second floor.
Liu Zhongshun leaned on the railing and looked down. Behind him was his brother Xiaoqiang, who had worked hard with him to start a business.
Xiao Qiang said nervously: "Brother, do you think this railway listing is stable? What if something goes wrong?"
"We are here today to buy stocks on behalf of the people of Taoyuan County. I dare not even think about investing 20 million taels of silver in this stock!"
Liu Zhongshun picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip. He said calmly, "Don't panic just because you have a lot of money. If the railway stock can't rise after it goes public, then I don't know what stock will rise."
"Remember, this is an opportunity for the county to get rich quick, and he's only taking half. There must not be any mistakes. How are the arrangements going?"
Xiao Qiang said, "The people in front of the counter are all from our county. They can buy it immediately. We have confirmed it many times. And since we have so many people, we will definitely not be discovered by outsiders."
Liu Zhongshun nodded: "Okay, after you buy it, don't sell it just because it's rising rapidly. This thing should be kept as a family heirloom!"
Xiaoqiang also nodded excitedly, and then began to take deep breaths.
Everything is ready, now we are just waiting for the master's order...
Liu Zhongshun chased the teacup and looked at the crowd downstairs who were discussing fiercely. He smiled amusedly and said in high spirits: "Look at those people downstairs. They go to work on time at seven o'clock every day and only earn a few taels of silver every month. They save money and play stocks, hoping to get rich overnight. Humph, they don't even know who the real winner is!"
But at this moment, Fang Zhengyi came to the two of them and asked, "How are the preparations going?"
Liu Zhongshun quickly came back to his senses, put down his teacup and said, "Everything is ready, just waiting for you to speak."
Fang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and said sternly, "Remember, this is your only chance, don't miss it! Make this rule, if you do this again in the future it will be considered illegal, and you can't make any mistakes."
"Yes! Absolutely not!" Liu Zhongshun promised.
"Okay, let's get started."
After briefly explaining, Fang Zheng turned around and went upstairs.
Emperor Jing was still drinking tea alone, listening quietly to the idle chatter around him.
Fang Zhengyi sat down beside him and said, "Your Majesty, everything has been arranged and we will start right away."
Then he took out a "contract" from his bosom and shook it, and whispered: "I have a gift for you today."
Emperor Jing was a little surprised and said with a smile: "Gift, what gift do you want to give me?"
Fang Zhengyi slapped the "deed" on the table and slowly pushed it in front of Emperor Jing: "Dajing Railway shares, one million shares."
Emperor Jing's mind was a little confused and his eyes quickly cast towards the sign in the center of the hall.
Dajing Railway...Where is it? Where is this stock?
"Wait! Railways, railways are also listed here?!" Emperor Jing reacted and his head buzzed.
This is a national treasure!
Fang Zhengyi took out a thin booklet and handed it to Emperor Jing without any hurry. "Your Majesty, please forgive me. Since the railway is under the management of your son, I rashly put it on the market without approval."
"However, there are detailed regulations written here. Why don't you wait until you finish reading it?"
Emperor Jing picked up the booklet and the stocks with a serious expression and checked them over and over again.
Just as he was about to flip through the booklet, a young servant dressed in red and looking festive came from outside the door, beating gongs and drums.
For a moment, everyone in the exchange looked at him.
The young servant was at ease, banged the gong hard, and shouted: "New shares are listed, Dajing Railway!"
The whole place fell into silence instantly, and you could hear a pin drop.
Dajing Railway....This thing is also on the market! ? Is it true or not?
And the timing isn't right. Originally, new stocks were only available when the market opened. How come they suddenly appeared in the afternoon?
I saw the servant walking through the crowd and hanging a sign on the billboard: Dajing Railway, one tael per share.
Then he took out a notice from his pocket.
Carefully unfold it, stand on tiptoe and stick it to the notice board beside....
