Anti-Qing: I'm actually an honest person

Chapter 144
The stock price is the only credible factor that reflects investor confidence.

Liu Dapao is really a little afraid that the stock price will drop sharply after he officially announces his anti-Qing Dynasty, because on the one hand, many of the people who bought his company's stock are Manchus, even princes of the Manchu Qing Dynasty. It will be sold... maybe.

In addition, the matter of anti-Qing and Ming Dynasty is, to put it bluntly, risking their lives. It is hard to believe that those businessmen would be willing to risk their lives with him.

This is also the main reason why Liu Dapao can't wait to play an exhibition match with Hao Duo.

However, Liu Dapao was a little surprised that when the market opened the next morning, the price of the stock went up instantly, and the entire exchange was full of guys waving bank notes and land deeds to buy stocks.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the so-called new Ming Dynasty is a shell on the outside of the company. Whoever can be the chairman of the company's board of directors can be the prime minister of the new Ming Dynasty, and whoever can be a member of the board of directors. Whoever can become a cabinet bachelor.

Even the generals rely on equity to speak. After the decision of the board of directors, as the war progresses and continues, the company will further liberalize and improve the option part. More than half of the assets will be issued through additional issuance of option stocks. If you win a battle, you will have at least one more stock option in your hand.

And the so-called generals will take on more and more responsibilities as a representative of retail investors in the future. Whoever represents more stocks in their hands will speak harder.

In other words, stock is power, and stock is everything!
As for failing, you will die.

This is the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, and these big businessmen also came from the end of the Ming Dynasty. Do you really think they are bloodless?

You have to buy stocks even if you want to sell iron!

Not only businessmen, big landlords near Chaozhou have also joined the ranks of buying stocks frantically. They may not have much cash in their hands, but they do have land deeds. The most important thing is that they have soldiers and guns. The militia battalion was used, so that Liu Dapao actually had to consider the issue of additional issuance.

Well, it’s definitely going to be an additional issue. That fellow Liu Xuanchu also came and said that Wu Sangui planned to sort out the resources of Hunan and Sichuan and integrate them into his Yunnan-Guizhou Group, changing its name to Pingxi Group, and then through Pingxi Group to buy shares in West Pacific Company and Further expand the proportion of cross-shareholdings.

But Liu Dapao could tell at a glance that this guy wanted to compete with him for the chairman of the board of directors.

But anyway... very welcome.

Of course, such a situation is very bad in Hao Duo's view. Although things like exhibition games are stupid, but right now, he has no choice.

"Brothers, those filthy Han Chinese have deceived us. They have never been loyal to us. Wu Sangui is like this, Liu Xun, no, so is Liu Dapao."

"I can tell everyone responsibly that we are dead."

"Anyone can surrender, but we are the Yellow Flag. Whoever surrenders has no reason for us to surrender."

"I just came back from the stock exchange. So far, the price of the stock has risen by nearly half, and it is still rising. No matter how much money is paid, no one is willing to sell it."

"Those Han dogs naively thought that they could really block the front of our Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers."

"So brothers, before we die, this is the only thing we can do. Our opponent is Jiang Sheng from the Wei State Camp. His Wei State Camp is just under construction. The number of people will not exceed 1000, which is about the same as ours. Brothers , tear them apart, and tell them when we are dying, we are the Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers, and we are invincible! Let those idiots who are still buying stocks regret it! Let us die, let me drop the price of the stocks!"

On the other side, Jiang Sheng was also giving his final pre-war speech outside the city, while Liu Dapao, who was further behind, was leading most of the shareholders in the shareholders meeting to watch the upcoming fight from the high ground behind them.

Quite a bit like the Roman nobles watching gladiators.

Of course, once Jiang Sheng is really stretched, Li Chenggong and Niu Dabiao, who are in charge of supporting the two wings, will lead the headquarters' green battalion and soldiers from Duke Xushun's mansion to swarm him to death, which is enough to ensure the safety of shareholders.

In case it cannot be guaranteed...

Fucking nearly [-] Green Battalion, ah bah, if the new army of the Ming Dynasty is nearly [-], if they can't beat the Eight Banners soldiers of around [-] or [-], then there is no need to fight this battle.

"Chairman, you let more than 1000 people like Jiang Sheng take the lead. Wouldn't it be too...too rash?"

"That's right, Prime Minister, since you value the Wei State Camp so much, it must be the elite of our company. Such an elite, let them face the Zhenghuang Banner of the Eight Banners. Even if they can win, it will be a miserable victory. Isn't that right? ... Isn't it too wasteful?"

"Yes, yes, as the saying goes, the lion fights the rabbit, and we will do our best. After all, the opponent is the Eight Banners, so we can't be too cautious."

"Besides, you are still fighting in the city. This... many ordinary people are also watching. If General Jiang loses... I am afraid that the morale will be greatly damaged, and the hearts of the people will be floating."

"Furthermore, in terms of morale, Hao Duo's Man Ba ​​Banners are already mourners who know they will die. They don't have any other worries, they just need to charge. On the contrary, the soldiers of the Weiguo camp have reinforcements behind them. Desperation is necessary, as the saying goes, the underdog must win..."

Liu Dapao glanced back at the shareholders sent by the Chamber of Commerce, and said with a half-smile: "So in short, you all think that the most elite Weiguo Battalion in Ming Dynasty, with a force of 100 people, can't defeat Hao Duo and only six people are left. Eight Banners soldiers in their early [-]s?"

"This... that is the Eight Banners after all. We are not saying that we cannot win, but we are really afraid of heavy casualties."

"Yeah yeah."

"As the so-called Eight Banners are less than ten thousand, they are invincible..."

Hearing this, Liu Dapao glared at the person who said the stupid thing rather unkindly, and the person quickly lowered his head, speechless.

"If the soldiers of the Eight Banners are really invincible, why should I turn against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty? Even the enemy can't believe their self-proclaimed bullshit. Can we still be scared out of our nerve by such a title?"

After all, Liu Dapao ordered Wu Shuntian angrily: "Go and tell Jiang Sheng that if you fight this battle well, I will give him another lot of stock for each person in the army, but if you don't fight well, everyone will cancel the award. Where did it come from, go back to me."

"Yes."

Wu Shuntian took the order to go, but after a while, deafening cheers erupted from Jiang Sheng's army formation.

But it seems to have won.

Seeing that the shareholders of the chamber of commerce were puzzled, they really couldn't figure out where their self-confidence came from.

With the same number of people, how could the ordinary Han army win against the elite of the Eight Banners?

Back then, the Ming court's army of one million was vulnerable to the elite of the Eight Banners who were less than one hundred thousand?

Liu Dapao triumphantly took out a cigar for himself, and distributed one to each of the shareholders behind him one by one, and took out a lighter that had not been successfully trial-produced and lit them one by one.

After hesitating for a while, watching the gates of the city gradually open, he only said indifferently: "Watching a play."
