Four hundred and seventy-six. Prelude to the crisis (the fourth shift asks for a monthly pass)

On June 26, 1942, a few days after the fierce battle in the New York stock market, the "Joe Cole Brothers Investment Company" announced that it would hold a press conference.

There have been rumours that Joe Cole has discovered gold in Africa and is looking to go public in order to get more funding.

Today, maybe something earth-shattering will happen

The reporter and some interested investors came to the press conference hall rented by Joe Cole early in the morning.

They waited anxiously

At 10 a.m., the actual owner of Joe Cole's company, Manny Cole. Mr. Joe Cole finally appeared.

The hall fell silent

"There have always been legends that we have discovered a huge gold deposit in Africa, and at today's press conference, I will unravel this mystery."

Mr. Joe Cole's opening remarks immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

Mr. Joe Cole slowly looked at the scene: "Yes, we did find a huge gold mine"

Exclamations suddenly resounded in the hall.

God, gold mines, there really are gold mines!

However, there are still people who are half-convinced that gold mines are not so easy to discover

"These are the supporting documents, these are some photos taken at the gold mining site," said Joe Cole, who took out a large number of documents and showed them to everyone in the room.

The spotlight is flickering, and the reporters' pens are constantly recording

If all this is true. It will shake the whole of America and Europe!

When the hall was a little quieter, Mr. Joe Cole continued: "Besides, I would like to show you some loot. ”

Curiosity was raised again

A large group of security company security guards appeared. There are also some police officers among them. They were all armed and looked nervous and solemn.

Joe Cole stepped out of his way, and behind him, a door slowly opened

In an instant, everyone's eyes were stabbed!

They saw:

- Gold!

Neatly stacked gold!

God, everyone here swears they've never seen that much gold in their lives!

"Gentlemen. 300 pounds of gold! Mr. Jocole has a confident smile on his face: "This is our first harvest." The gold mines, which we named 'Jocole Gold Mine', are home to a high level of gold reserves. To our surprise, the document in my hand is the report of Mr. Milley of the National Mining Association of the United States, which confirms the existence and reserves of our gold mines, and I don't think anyone here will doubt the authority of Mr. Milley, right? ”

This time, even if you are suspicious. I am also convinced of the authenticity of the existence of this "Joe Cole Gold Mine"!

That's the real 300 pounds of gold! And it was obtained before it was fully developed.

As for Mr. Milley. He is the most authoritative mining expert in the United States, and what he says is equivalent to being able to put a coffin on one thing.

Journalists are getting agitated, investors are getting ready to move.

Who can't be tempted by a gold mine?

"Our application for listing has been approved by the New York Securities Association and the New York Stock Exchange, and the Joe Cole Gold Mine shares are about to be issued, and we need to raise more funds to better develop that gold mine, some people may ask, you already have a gold mine, why do you need a lot of money? Hey. The person who said this is a layman, and we need to buy a lot of machines. Hiring a lot of locals, and on top of that, we need to hire a lot of security guards, buy a lot of weapons, even artillery and tanks, and I don't think the Germans would have it so easy for us to get the gold out of the country. That's called Erwin. The Rommel guys would be willing to trade all the good wine they have in their house for some shares in our company."

Laughter erupted, and a reporter asked aloud: "Mr. Jocole, we already know that the Germans are also eyeing this gold mine, what if they are ready to forcibly prevent you from transporting gold?" ”

"We will not hesitate to fight back!" Joe Cole put away his smile and behaved so solemnly: "Don't forget, it's the American flag flying above our heads!" ”

"Hula", a round of applause rang out.

What a patriotic, inspiring word!

Now, the news of the gold mine has been confirmed, and the gold mine shares are about to be issued.

New York is in a madness, and America is in a madness

Everyone is asking about everything about the gold mine, and everyone is keeping an eye on the upcoming Joe Cole stock.

If anyone can own the shares of Joe Cole now, they will definitely make a fortune!

However, this is not easy

Two of New York's hottest characters appeared:

Robben. Williams – Manny. Joe cole!

Everywhere there was talk of them, everywhere there was talk of Kinrank and Joe Cole Company.

But not everyone is going to be so crazy.

Mr. Morgan of the Morgan consortium is one of them.

"Collect your money in the New York stock market, and don't buy even a single share of Joe Cole's stock!"

This was Mr. Morgan's order in the most severe manner.

"For what, sir?" His secretary Stali didn't understand it to the extreme: "Now everyone knows that it will make a lot of money." ”

"Because everybody is going crazy," Morgan calmly replied to the secretary's question: "It is definitely not an accident that Williams and Joe Cole appeared at the same time. I once met Williams at a banquet, and he was frivolous, arrogant, and definitely not a genius in people's mouths."

"But. In the end, he still defeated the Danzigsy Fund. ”

"Staley, why do people always like to look at things at face value?" Morgan sighed softly, "A huge and terrifying force is behind Williams, and this force has the wealth. Even more than us. They can easily manipulate the rise and fall of any stock, but Zeshi Fund is insignificant compared to this force. They were making a stock star popular, and then preparing for their bigger conspiracy, and at this time, Joe Cole, who had been rumored before, but never publicly acknowledged, finally appeared in the foreground, at this point in time. It must have been carefully calculated beforehand."

Now, Starley understands a little: "What do you think will happen?" ”

"The stock market will be pushed to a crazy point. Everyone will snap up Joe Cole's stock, everyone will trust Kinranke Fund, and everyone is willing to hand over their money to Kinranke to take care of. Driven by the sharp rise of all stocks in the New York stock market. Morgan said that. The look was so grim: "But then." When the stock market reaches its craziest stage, that mysterious force will retreat and take with it terrible wealth, and the New York stock market will collapse completely, and the stock market crash will come, and in its place, perhaps, an even more terrible financial crisis"

Starley gasped, "In that case, you should warn. Mr. ”

"Do you think anyone wants to listen to us?" Morgan said lightly: "When all people fall into madness, a sane voice will quickly be drowned out by saliva." Even everyone will accuse us of being greedy. Vampires who only care about making money for themselves, but don't want to see others get rich, the Morgan Group will become the target of everyone's attack, and I am even more worried that the Morgan Group will become the new attack point of that mysterious force, and I don't think that our strength will be able to resist their attack."

Staley nodded yes, and now that he knew it, Mr. Morgan had seen that this was a game of big corporations, in order to take in more money, and what the Morgan consortium could do now was how to protect itself in this impending crisis.

"What consortium do you think would do such a crazy thing?" Starley asked cautiously.

"I don't know how to do it, I can't think of anyone in the United States or Europe who has that kind of power." Morgan said helplessly: "If my guess is right, this force can easily mobilize a large amount of money, and it will not be noticed." And, I also suspect that they will also show the Americans to see more gold. Can you believe it, Starley, I even have a hunch that they will come up with a ton or more of gold."

Starley gasped.

It's ridiculous, it's incredible

A ton of gold, what a concept

"I'm ready to come up with another ton of gold in the future." Wang Weiyi coldly gave his own order: "After the listing of Joe Cole's stock, those investors must be allowed to see more gold in order to promote the crazy rise of the stock." ”

"Yes, Baron." Elliot said respectfully, "Do you think anyone will find out about our plan?" ”

"Of course, not everyone is crazy." Wang Weiyi smiled slightly: "Up to now, the Morgan consortium and the Rockefeller consortium have not made any moves, on the contrary, they have begun to shrink their investments, because they have noticed that there is something abnormal."

"So, will our plans run aground because of this?" Elliot suddenly became worried.

"My dear Elliot, this is the least thing to worry about." Wang Weiyi is still smiling there:

"Even if they find a crisis, they will not expose it, because any crisis is the best opportunity for the capitalists to expand on a large scale. They are even gearing up now, eagerly waiting for this crisis to come. And we are just a force that fuels the troubles. ”
