Chapter 819: Missing Gold
A small tea leaf can actually cause such a big storm, which really shocked Li Changling, and when he calmed down, he didn't believe it.
"Wang Xianggong, the stock market rises and falls, it's a common thing, I don't think it's a big deal! Just let them adjust themselves! ”
"Shut up!"
Without waiting for Wang Dan to answer, Kou Zhun spoke first, he was like an angry lion possessed, pacing in the cabinet room...... Kou Zhun understands that the stock market crash has little to do with tea. In other words, the tea thing is just an introduction, a fuse!
Over the years, the contradictions that have accumulated have finally exploded!
This contradiction can even be traced back to Ye Hua's period, or rather, since the implementation of industrialization, it has been accumulating...... When Ye Hua was in power, he tried his best to resolve and suppress risks. But when Kou Zhun came to power, he did not hesitate to condone the expansion of risks in order to win people's hearts. Moreover, during his tenure, the Great Zhou basically completed the initial industrialization, and the overseas territories were also included in the territory.
Expansion stopped, and the center of gravity of the economy shifted to finance.
Now, all kinds of accumulated contradictions have reached an irrepressible level, and they have suddenly exploded!
Kou Zhun's face was very ugly.
"We must stabilize the market, we must!"
Kou Zhun, who was accustomed to seeing wind and rain, seemed anxious and uneasy at the moment, and he spoke very quickly, "Immediately tell the insurance company and ask them to compensate the tea farmers for their losses." At the same time, tea was allocated to stabilize prices. In addition, the Ministry of Finance should allocate special funds to maintain the stability of the stock market! ”
Wang Dan was taken aback and hurriedly asked, "Prime Minister, are you going to use the treasury money to buy stocks?" "That's not okay, just embezzle the budget, that's a big crime, no one can afford it!
Kou Zhun also realized his mistake and hurriedly corrected it: "I mean to stabilize the tea company...... For high-quality enterprises, it provides convenience for finance, taxation and loans. Also, it is necessary to reduce bank interest rates. All in all, make sure you do your best to stabilize the stock market! ”
"Understood!"
Wang Dan hurriedly went down to make arrangements.
There were two people left in the cabinet, Li Changling frowned, and laughed dryly, "That...... Kou Xianggong, the lower officials think, is it a big fuss? I don't think a little gain or loss is nothing, the foundation of Da Zhou is strong enough to survive it, or in a few days, the panic will disappear, and the dark clouds in the sky will disperse. ”
He still wanted to say more, but found that Kou Zhun's eyes were red, and he was staring at him viciously, which made Li Changling tremble, "Kou, Kou Xianggong, did the lower official say something wrong?" ”
Kou Zhun snorted lightly, "You're not wrong, it's your ass that sits in the wrong position!" ”
Rumble!
A thunderclap sounded in Li Changling's ears, and he was so frightened that he hurriedly stood up, at a loss, and said in panic: "Kou, Kou Xianggong, you can't be joking!" Xiaguan, Xiaguan asked himself, there is nothing wrong......"
He still wanted to go on, Kou Zhun rushed in front of him, the two of them looked at each other, Kou Zhun's eyes were burning with anger, and he could burn people!
"Listen...... Let those people stop in moderation! ”
Unknowingly, Li Changling's sideburns were sweating, and he hesitated: "Down, the lower official is puzzled!" ”
"Don't pretend to be garlic with me!" Kou Zhun roared angrily: "They have pushed up the stock market over the years and made a lot of money, and now, they want to get out of the market, throw the mess to me, and tell them!" Wish for the moon! I'm not a face-to-face, if you dare to trick me, then there is only one way to die! I don't mind dying together! ”
……
Li Changling's body swayed, and he stumbled out of the prime minister's room, and Kou Zhun's words kept echoing in his ears.
Yes, don't doubt Kou Zhun's means.
This guy can pit tens of millions of Tianzhu people, so he won't kill a few businessmen!
He is Ye Hua's disciple, and his ferocity is not below his master at all, it really forces him to be anxious, and it is not impossible for the fish to die and the net is broken!
"Hey! It's hard to do! ”
Li Changling is not a stupid person, let alone ignorant of the financial market.
In fact, in terms of skill, he is still above Kou Zhun, but his ass is crooked!
Since the financial reform, speculation has intensified in the Great Zhou.
A small part of the additional currency has flowed overseas, and most of it is still in Kaifeng, in the financial circle!
As a direct result, all kinds of stocks and bonds have risen wildly day and night, and they have risen much more fiercely and for a much longer period than when the stock market was first established.
The long bull market has made many people forget the word risk and only know to buy feverishly.
But the problem is that there is nothing in the world that can go up forever.
The bookmakers behind the stock market know this truth!
One has to ask, how do you make money in the financial markets?
It seems that this question can be written in a huge work of tens of millions of words, and there are countless answers, but in the final analysis, it is not complicated, it is just a money game that keeps circulating!
The first is to determine the theme, seize the opportunity, and compile a moving wealth story...... In short, it is to convince you that the price of this thing is going to rise. Then, continue to invest money to buy, and raise the price again and again to attract the people who eat melons to join in.
When the price is speculated to a certain extent, the story will not be told, the dealer will ship at a high price, make a lot of money, and at the same time throw many "leeks" on the high hills.
When the "leek" can't stand it and starts to sell, the price has dropped again and again, and when the dealer sees the benefits, he will enter the market again and repeat the process.
Over and over again, the leeks were harvested one by one.
Now the stock market of the Great Week is like this, it has reached a dizzying height, and those bookmakers are going to withdraw.
Li Changling persuaded Kou Zhun not to intervene, it was to let the businessmen retreat calmly, to put it bluntly, this is what it is! But Kou Zhun is not an idiot, he has long known that the stock market is not safe, but he was forced to have no choice but to protect the stock market.
As a result, something went wrong, could he let the wealthy businessmen escape easily?
What do you think!
Lao Tzu is Kou Zhun, not a weak chicken!
"Send a message to Li Changling and ask him to tell the others what I mean. The community is in trouble, it is my friend surnamed Kou, and when the difficulties are over, I will repay them. If you dare to dismantle my platform at this time, you will be Kou Zhun's enemy! How to end up, let them think for themselves! ”
……
Don't really say it, Kou Zhun was furious, it still worked, a few tricks were used, the tea stabilized first, the stock market fell narrowed, and even rebounded a little, and then entered a stable and volatile stage.
"It's another catastrophe!"
Kou Zhun convened a cabinet meeting and invited several cabinet elders and scholars related to finance and finance to discuss the current economic situation.
"In recent years, we have relied too much on finance, on the stock market. The output of agricultural products has been declining for three consecutive years, and industrial products have also lost their growth. A lot of factories are closed, unemployment is very high, and I think it's time to adjust! Lu Mengzheng opened the case and showed his own views.
Not surprisingly, Li Changling objected again, "I don't see it that way, Lu Xianggong complains that there are fewer exports and more imports...... But I want to ask Lee Sang-gong, we export more and import less, what will be the result? ”
Lu Mengzheng was slightly stunned, and Li Changling sneered: "I want to remind Lu Xianggong that we don't have no exit!" We export currency! ”
Li Changling's voice was excited: "Imported goods, exported currency, overseas territories all rely on the banknotes of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and we can receive seigniorage for every transaction!" I would like to ask you, is there anything easier than exporting currency? ”
Such a powerful reason, blocking countless mouths at once.
Before the meeting, there were many people who wanted to speak, and most of them wanted to get into trouble with the cabinet.
But after Li Changling said this, the big guy hesitated again.
yes, export paper - uh no, it's currency, how easy is that!
In the gold and silver age, the imperial court wanted to export more goods and accumulate more gold and silver. After all, it still hurts to take out the silver. But in the era of paper money, the situation is different.
How many banknotes, don't feel distressed!
Li Changling saw that it had an effect, and immediately struck while the iron was hot.
"Ladies and gentlemen, although there is a problem in front of you, I don't think the situation is serious...... First of all, we have a strong foundation, the best technology, the largest market, and the strongest army, all in our hands. Overseas territories were also the territory of the Great Zhou, and they did not dare to oppose the imperial court. What's more, finance itself is also a weapon, and it is still a very powerful one. Do you want to keep your wealth? ”
"I have a suggestion to raise interest rates moderately, and at the same time open up the territory to invest in the country, especially to encourage them to buy bonds...... I can handle this thing, as long as they send the money they earn back to Da Zhou, there will be no problems! ”
Good genius idea!
Ye Xi, who had been silent, suddenly said quietly: "Li Xianggong is really clever, and the trick has become really good-looking!" ”
Li Changling smiled dryly: "What? Ye Xianggong also agrees with the old man's approach? ”
Ye Xi turned his head to the other officials, and said in a cold voice: "Everyone, what we are discussing is the development of the industry, not the gains and losses in currency!" Da Zhou's problem is far from that simple! We are losing competitiveness, we are falling! No one can defeat us, but we will hurt ourselves! ”
Ye Xi said excitedly: "I strongly suggest that we should start immediately, restore industry, reduce taxes on enterprises, and at the same time restrict finance, squeeze bubbles, and eliminate risks...... If we don't act immediately, in another three years, five years, ten or eight years, we won't be able to recover! ”
"In a word, we're running out of time!"
Ye Xi's resoluteness surprised Kou Zhun, even if he and Ye Xi's positions were different, he couldn't ignore Ye Xi's judgment! After the quarrel at the cabinet meeting, Kou Zhun immediately left Ye Xi, and the two of them wanted to talk alone!
Just as Kou Zhun was about to ask, someone suddenly ran in and whispered to Kou Zhun: "Prime Minister, something is wrong!" ”
"What's the matter?"
"Three days ago, Tianzhu wanted to withdraw 200,000 taels of deposits. The treasury gave them the gold according to the rules, but when they inspected the goods, they found ......"
"Found what?" Kou Zhun's voice raised.
The person who came said bitterly: "I found that the gold is not pure!" ”
Kou Zhun almost heard a joke, "How can there be a problem with the deposit of the treasury?" Say! What went wrong? ”
"Return, back to the Prime Minister's words, after inspection, some gold is, fake!"
"Fake?" Kou Zhun stood up suddenly.
The person who came was about to cry, and his voice trembled: "That's right, it's really fake, yes, it's a layer of gold dust brushed with brass!" ”
