Destiny Only Han

Chapter 778 Speculator: The bigger the storm, the more expensive the fish!Liu Ying: I want to watch trapeze...

Luoyang Palace.

Liu Ying drooped her head, allowing Liu Bang to force Lai Lai non-stop in front of him.

Without him, the futures exchange is too popular, not only rich and right businessmen, but also many ordinary people from ordinary families.

After all, in times of peace and prosperity, people either seek money or gain power, but the latter is destined to have nothing to do with most ordinary people, so the only option left is to seek money.

Therefore, futures, a game that requires only a small amount of capital and can leverage tens of thousands of wealth, naturally makes people flock to it.

But the crux of the problem is that the game in front of us, especially the large orders hanging on the futures exchange, does not follow the laws of the market.

In other words, the group of people chasing ups and downs is destined to have only one ending.

trapeze.

This is why Liu Bang, who came back from wandering outside, blamed Liu Ying half out of anger and half out of worry.

It is of course his wish to correct Shuo Yi's clothes, but if it triggers a civil uprising, the gain will outweigh the loss!

Liu Ying nodded and said very humbly:

"Well, blame me for some omissions. I came up with futures to stabilize the market and cheat the old and the young. If possible, I might have a windfall in a populous country overseas and get tens of millions of cheap It’s hard to find a labor force, but I didn’t expect so many people to dream of getting rich overnight..."

Well, as I said before, the most important function of the futures market is to transfer risks from farmers and factories to speculators.

Nowadays, the price of cotton cloth is rising all the way, and the price of raw materials is also rising. However, this is a kind of artificial bubble. In order to pierce the bubble so as not to affect domestic cotton farmers and textile mills, the current futures exchange was established.

As for overseas powers, it naturally refers to the poisonous body.

According to today's means of transportation and communication, it is absolutely impossible for Han to realize armed reclamation in such a far place.

After all, Indians are different from Native Americans who are scorned by Westerners as Indians.

Native Americans mainly hunted and followed their prey to migrate erratically. They did not have the concept of territory, so they did not value land ownership, so that colonists could obtain a large expanse of land by trading a glass ball.

And ancient India was also an agricultural nation, and the value of land was not lower than that of the Han people.

Therefore, we can change our thinking, such as supporting one or more comprador regimes, obtaining a place where raw materials are produced and products are dumped, and by the way, let Ah San experience in advance what a semi-colonial and semi-feudal society is...

Liu Bang's mouth was dry, he picked up the teapot and swallowed a few mouthfuls, and then folded his arms: "Tell me, is there any remedy?"

Liu Ying thought for a while and said carefully: "Verification of capital! Nowadays, the main futures exchanges are wheat, corn, rice, soybeans and cotton... There is no need to interfere with the first four, and they can be traded freely."

"The focus is on cotton. Anyone who participates in futures trading needs an asset statement issued by the local government. Only those with wealth of more than one million can enter the market..."

"Well, let's estimate according to the standards set during the Qianhao Order..."

Liu Bang nodded: "This matter is feasible, I don't care about their life and death... I look down on those rich people the most."

Heh, are you honest about what you said... Liu Ying was silent for a while and then said: "At the same time, private placements and off-market transactions are prohibited. Once discovered, they will be beheaded immediately for public display, and the materials will be confiscated!"

The advantage of a feudal society is that the emperor has the final right to interpret the law, especially in this era when the imperial power is supreme, Liu Ying can increase or decrease laws at will, and there is no need for new decrees like other dynasties where the monarchs and ministers repeatedly argue for a long time .

Liu Bang nodded slightly again. He didn't understand private equity and didn't bother to ask. His focus was on prohibiting off-market transactions.

After all, futures exchanges do not generate wealth, they earn mainly handling fees, and OTC trading will result in the exchange not receiving handling fees, which is no different from tax evasion.

"Okay, call Cao Can, let him write, seal, and promulgate immediately." Liu Bang turned his head and looked at Yuan Ang who was standing at the door giving orders.

Well, now that Liu Ying is the emperor, Yuan An, a member of the East Palace, naturally rises and replaces Wei Wuzhi as the Shangshuling. As for Wei Wuzhi, he is promoted to the Supreme Royal Order.

Yuan Ang looked at Liu Ying and saw that he was noncommittal, so he bowed and hurried away.

Liu Bang froze for a moment, looking at Liu Ying who was staring straight at him, a bit of embarrassment flashed across his face.

After all, he is no longer the emperor but the emperor, so naturally he shouldn't be the one giving orders...

But he immediately became more confident.

He is the father!
Liu Ying spread her hands helplessly. This is called retirement syndrome, which generally means that retired people cannot adapt to their new social roles.

For example, Liu Bang, he originally thought very well. After he abdicated and became the Supreme Emperor, he slept until the sun was up every day, and then played with his harem beauties. ...

But that lasted less than three days.

Every time Liu Ying summoned the courtiers, the old man would carry a futon and sit in a corner to listen, making Liu Ying feel a lot of pressure...

Especially when Liu Ying went on tour this time, the old man also begged for nothing to follow him...

So, Liu Yinghe came trotting all the way, and Cao Can, who was writing at the desk, briefly explained a few words, then turned to look at Liu Bang, who was probing his head, and said with a smile: "Father, I am going to go to Yiyang Industrial Zone tomorrow, do you want to come together?" go?"

Liu Bang nodded very reservedly: "Okay, since you said so, then I can only obey, anyway, you are the emperor now..."

Then you are still the Supreme Emperor... Cao Shen didn't raise his head, but there was a bit of contempt in his eyes.

After all, he is also a prime minister, under Liu Bang and Liu Ying, above tens of thousands of people, he should have power in the government, but unexpectedly he became an errand runner, coming and going as soon as he was called...

He clearly remembered that Xiao He was not treated like this when he was Prime Minister!

So unfair!
At this moment, Cao Shen wished he could travel back to Peixian County back then, and slapped him fiercely to ask for an explanation for his sister, so he put Liu Bang in prison...

Why offend him?
One stumble and become a big lame, then turn around and dodge the waist again, so what about the highest achievement, the sentence that Cao Shen is a dog, can be regarded as a prophecy...

After a while, Liu Ying sighed deeply as she looked at Cao Shen who was holding the decree in her hand and leaving with a sad figure.

For those who want to get rich overnight, there is only so much he can do.

After all, only after Shuo Yifu's demeanor is corrected, can the Han Kingdom be regarded as a brand-new country in the true sense. The important thing is to let the old, the old, and the young put themselves in their positions. Money and power must be grasped, and naturally money and power must be lost!

The river has been crossed, and the demolition of the bridge is natural.

....................................

Yiyang County, Han Yiping Coal and Steel United Company.

Liu Bang got off the carriage, looked at the tall door plaque in front of him, and frowned slightly: "What's the meaning of this?"

Lu Wan, Cao Can and others who followed from the other side also looked at each other in blank dismay.

They can recognize each of these characters, but when they are written together, it is somewhat incomprehensible.

Liu Ying moved her shoulders and said:

"The first three characters represent three place names, namely Hanzhong, Yiyang, and Pingcheng."

"The so-called coal-steel union refers to the product of the merger of Hanzhong's coal and iron trading company, Yiyang's coal and iron trading company, and Pingcheng's coal mine. After all, iron smelting technology is not a secret. In order to have more market competition Forces, naturally need to unite."

"Well, there is also the Hanliao Coal and Steel United Company, which is a combination of the original Hanhuang County (Tangshan) Coal and Iron Trading Company and the Liaodong (Anshan) Coal and Iron Trading Company."

Hearing what Liu Ying said, a look of loneliness flashed across Lu Wan's face.

After all, Hanhuang County and Liaodong County were both his fiefdoms, but at that time those places were quiet and sparsely populated, so he waved his hand and let Liu Ying run around.

Now, I regret it!
Especially my precious daughter is getting older and more and more like her mother. Although she is not as beautiful as Xu Zang'er, she is at least graceful. When I think that my daughter will be touched by that proud brat Lu Wan wished she could kick Liu Ying to death...

But this is just a thought...

"As for the word company, it is similar to a business company." Liu Ying paused for a moment, and then said: "Zhuangzi said, accumulating disadvantages to become high, combining small to become large, and merging to become public is the way of company. The so-called A company means gathering the wealth of many people and operating together.”

Liu Ying was quietly relieved when Liu Bang and others nodded frequently, especially when Liu Bang was showing off to the people around him that his son Bowen had strong memorization and could quote scriptures casually.

Zhuangzi's words were actually made up by him.

The original text of the family is "hills and mountains are low and high, rivers and rivers are combined to become big, and adults merge to become public." The "gong" in it refers to the "Tao" that explains tolerance and coordinates the yin and yang of the world.

But it doesn't matter. As the editor-in-chief of "Encyclopedia of the Chinese", it is easy for him to carry some private goods...

Among the flattering eulogies, Liu Bang waved his hand:

"Okay, let's go here today... Now, let's go and see how this 'company' is better than the previous trading company!"

ps: The term “company” first appeared in 1684 when the governor of Fujian, Wang Guo’an, reported to Emperor Kangxi that two large ships belonging to Liu Guoxuan and Hong Lei, key officials of the former anti-Qing Zheng Chenggong regime, were seized in Xiamen, containing some “company goods”.

Its original text is:

"Cekai Company's goods are [-] jins of lead, [-] jins of sumac, and [-] jins of tin", "Kaiming Company's goods of frankincense are [-] jins."

It is said that the name of the company originated from a non-governmental organization in southern Fujian and Taiwan, that is, Tiandihui.

For example, Luo Fangbo's 'Lanfang Company', which is the Republic of Lanfang.

There is also the Tiandihui in Singapore who organized the 'Yee Hing Company', which was even registered with the British colonial authorities...

pps: Not all milk is called Milk Deluxe. Similarly, not all yellow-skinned, black-haired and black-eyed people are of Chinese descent...
