Chapter 432 The Stock Exchange
The bustling city, the flow of people coming and going, and the constant yelling made Yang Reform, who had been staying in the palace recently, feel like he had changed his world.

Yang Reform sat on the carriage and let the carriage pull him back and forth in this bustling city, enjoying the atmosphere of ancient times. Through the bead curtains and glass, the lives of ordinary people in the Ming Dynasty on the street came into his eyes. , let Yang Reform, who has not been out of the palace for a long time and has been watching state affairs for a long time, feel very cordial. This is the real life!

Yang Reform looked at the people on the street enviously. If he crossed over, he would not become an emperor, but a commoner. Perhaps, his life would be much more colorful, instead of spending all his time trying to plan fundamentals. Unseen things, planning months, years, or even ten years later, maybe I am too tired to live, maybe my life is too unreal, maybe I am still in a dream, only touching Only these real, real and living people can feel that this world is real.

The carriage is four-wheeled, with glass windows on it, and a shock-absorbing "carrying pole". Walking on the street, with the jingle of bells, it is very stable, and there is no big vibration in the car. It is very different from the previous carriage.

The shock-absorbing "carriage" of the carriage is made of steel, a steel with good strength and elasticity. Originally, the internal officials could not produce this kind of steel.However, Sun Yuanhua got "instructions" from the emperor. After returning, he mixed a large batch of the same ore with wrought iron in different proportions, and made steel with an attitude of exhaustion. One of the "steel", this kind of shock-absorbing "carriage" on the four-wheeled carriage uses this "special steel".

Nowadays, this kind of four-wheeled carriage is very popular in the capital. Since the emperor specially made this kind of carriage for Sun Chengzong, there has been a trend of building a four-wheeled carriage in the capital. Anyway, the emperor did not say that other people cannot make it. Glass windows , a shock-absorbing "carrying pole", four wheels, and a carriage with doors, these new gadgets are very attractive, although there are many imitations, but "Made in Ouchi" is the best, and the quality is the best. Therefore, Yang Reform can be regarded as a small profit.

Wang Chengen knocked on the door, opened a crack in the door, and said, "My lord, do you still want to watch?" Wang Chengen was in a hurry, the emperor had already been wandering on the street for an hour in a carriage.

"Forget it, don't read it, let's go to Liulizhai." Yang Reform put away his gaze and looked out of the window, a little unsatisfied. Although his status is supreme, he also lacks some fun of being a commoner. Heaven and those ethereal, illusory, complex, endless political and military struggles are exhausting, which is very boring.

"Yes, young master." Wang Chengen agreed, and then closed the door.

The carriage rattled and ran towards Liulizhai.

Today, Liulizhai is said to be the most valuable street in Beijing. The glass curtain wall of the entire street is enough to make other neighborhoods and alleys in the capital bow down.

Liulizhai is still very lively, with a lot of traffic, and a steady flow of people dressed in various styles, a scene of prosperity.

Yang Reform's carriage went straight to the backyard.

It's been a long time since I came here, but Yang Reform feels a lot more kind.Pushing open the door, a familiar feeling came over my face.

"My lord, it's been a long time since I came to Liniang's place." A resentful voice passed through the bead curtain and came from the other side of the curtain.

"Didn't I come?" Yang Reform opened the curtain and entered the inner room.

Sun Liniang had tears in her eyes, grievances in her eyes, her pretty face was angry, but she stood there happily watching Yang Reform who came in through the curtain.

Seeing this lovable scene, Yang Reform silently pulled Sun Liniang into his arms.

"My lord..." Sun Liniang leaned against Yang Reform's arms all of a sudden, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"Liniang thought the young master didn't want Liniang anymore..." Sun Liniang flung herself into Yang Reform's arms, telling her grievances.

"Hehe, there, isn't it very busy recently, so less people come out, don't cry, people who cry are not good!" Yang Reform coaxed with a smile. He really rarely goes out of the palace recently, and he can even say I haven't left the palace, since the war in the north, I have been guarding the sand table day and night. I have to think about the latest news and troubles all night long. There is still time and thought to come out, even some time ago, Continuously having nightmares, the mental pressure is not so great. It is all a lie for a time traveler to be arrogant and all over the world. Victory is tormented. There has never been a big wave of the hand, and the victory is won. .

Hearing Yang Reform say that he is very busy recently, Sun Liniang stopped crying immediately. Everyone in the world knows what the emperor is busy with recently. Zhenjiang Fort is a great victory!It is said that the Ming Dynasty launched an attack on the eastern captives on a front thousands of miles away, among which the Zhenjiang Fort was the key. The Ming Dynasty even put a Mao Wenlong in the Zhenjiang Fort as a bait. You don’t need to think about this battle, you know how huge and fierce it is , the emperor wants to do big things, it's normal if he doesn't come out.

"Liniang understands. It's Liniang's fault. The young master has important things to do. Liniang shouldn't blame the young master...Young master is really amazing!" Sun Liniang had already cried, and the grievance in her heart had long been put behind her, and she started Happily talking to Yang Reform.

"Oh, it's not that great, it's just a fluke..." For the Zhenjiang Fort victory, Yang Reform's ecstasy after the victory at the beginning has subsided, and he began to seriously analyze and treat this battle, and seriously review himself Make mistakes, check your own deficiencies, this war has only just begun.

"Young Master, isn't it right? Nowadays, it has spread all over the world, saying that Your Majesty is a wise man. As soon as he made a move, he taught the Tartars of the East Prisoners a lesson, and let the Tartars know my great power. Now outside, you can treat Your Majesty It's highly praised." Sun Liniang pouted.When talking about this matter, it was quite sweet. The emperor is his own man, and his own man is praised by others. As a woman of this man, she is naturally proud of it.

"Hehehehe..." Yang Reform laughed for a while. He was not proud just because someone praised him, but just out of emotion. It was not easy for him to win this war. as simple as that.

Seeing that Yang Reform didn't talk much about this aspect, Sun Liniang didn't mention it anymore, thinking that Yang Reform didn't want to talk about state affairs everywhere, so she obediently stopped talking about this aspect.

"Hmph! Young Master, you know that I, Sun Liniang, am the richest person in the entire Ming Dynasty." Sun Liniang announced proudly.

"Oh, the richest man in Ming Dynasty?" Yang Reform didn't come back to his senses, and was taken aback.

"Isn't it? Young Master, the Liulizhai that Liniang is in charge of is worth 2000 million taels of silver, so why can't it be considered the richest?...Of course, it's just in charge, not Liniang's own. However, Liniang He is also the person in charge of the most money in the world..., more than the young master..., hahaha..." Sun Liniang laughed happily as she spoke.

value?Yang Reform thinks, now, all he can get is Liulizhai, and he should adjust a few stocks, and then set up a stock exchange, so that capital will automatically run and the "gears" of history will turn.

"Master? Master?"

"Hello, the richest woman in the world!" Yang Reform came out of his deep thoughts and smiled at Sun Liniang.

"My lord is making fun of you!" Sun Liniang said coquettishly.

"By the way, how is the trading of stocks?" Yang Reform asked.

"Your Master, do you mean stocks? They are selling very well now! However, as you said, you need to hold more than a majority of the shares, so there are not many stocks on the market. There are many buyers and few sellers..." Sun Liniang Said.

"Oh, where are stocks usually traded nowadays?" Yang Reform asked.

"This? Young Master, are those people buying and selling stocks there?" Sun Liniang asked uncertainly.

"Yes!" Yang Reformed.

"I heard that there are a few teahouses where they often go to buy and sell stocks, and some of them bought them from Liulizhai. However, Liniang doesn't have many, so she dare not sell them. My son asked why?" Sun Liniang asked curiously. road.

"Oh, in a tea house? This is not acceptable, it is not safe or standardized. The rules need to be changed. In this way, Liniang, you can choose a bigger store near Liulizhai and set up a stock exchange for those For those who buy and sell stocks, please invite a few powerful masters to sit down, and don’t let people get fooled by fake stocks. In the stock exchange, you can buy and sell stocks, and you can help those who want to sell stocks, but don’t want to show up, and don’t want to trade directly with buyers. It can also help those who want to buy stocks but do not want to trade with sellers to place orders, and then through daily synthesis, give the stock a comprehensive price of the day to guide everyone in trading..."

Yang Reform thought for a while, and decided to get the stock exchange out first. As for how to get it done, I won’t talk about whether it’s useful or not. This stock exchange has gradually matured. It is far better to use the power of capital to promote social change than to worry about it alone. It is undoubtedly too tiring to change the whole world with the power of one person. Now it is just a battle. Yang Reform felt that he was about to collapse. It would undoubtedly be more difficult to operate the reform of the entire world. Therefore, Yang Reform decided to mobilize capital and let the capital run automatically. This way, he could also reduce his pressure. It's tiring for a person like myself to change the world.

Besides, there are stock exchanges in the West now, and the operation of capital has already started, which will continuously provide power and blood for the development and progress of the West, and we cannot fall behind.

"...Stock Exchange? Young Master, this? This... Why do you want to set up a special place for those people to trade stocks? Buying and selling stocks is a matter for both buyers and sellers, why should we care so much?" Sun Liniang was puzzled. Very, people buy and sell stocks there, that's their business, why bother so much?Fortunately, the tea is easy to sit and serve, what are you doing?
"Liniang, that's why you don't understand. Do you know that business has to follow the money to grow bigger and bigger. Those people who buy and sell stocks, aren't they rich? Who don't have any money? A piece of stock is worth one or two thousand taels. Do the math, if these rich people gather together, how high will the money in their hands be piled up? They are all human-shaped money bags, and they are in your Liulizhai every day. Come and go, think about it, as long as one person thinks of buying something from you one day, it will be a lot of money! Besides, if there are any other stocks to sell in the future, you can buy them. You don’t need to look for people everywhere like you do now, you just need to come and sell on this stock exchange, and buyers and sellers are all here, isn’t it much more convenient?” Yang Reform explained with a smile.

"My lord, this is really a good idea! How did you come up with it, and how did you come up with an idea? Indeed, if these people come and go in Liniang's Liulizhai every day, Liniang's business will be much easier. , Liniang will display the latest glass objects in the stock exchange, and those rich people will see it, and maybe they will buy one when they are happy..." Sun Liniang suddenly discovered the business opportunity, and she admired Yang Reform very much. shouted happily.

"...But, my lord, are there other stocks?" Sun Liniang asked again in doubt.

"That's right! I plan to buy more stocks. You can see how profitable these stocks are now. I only invested a few hundred thousand taels of silver in Liulizhai, and I can only earn one hundred thousand taels of silver every year. But now through the stock market Once done, Liulizhai has become worth 10 million taels of silver, hasn't Liniang understood the role of this stock?" Yang Reform explained with a smile.

"Ah! Liniang understands,...Young master, you want to set up a few more venues, and then make it look like Liulizhai?" Sun Liniang was reminded by Yang Reform, and immediately realized the role of stocks, that is, amplifiers. Enlarging the original 100 million taels into 2000 million taels, this kind of effect, no matter what, cannot be achieved by traditional methods of making money. If the emperor runs a few more places like this, and then turns them into stocks, then the emperor's income will really be worth hundreds of millions what!No wonder the emperor wanted to set up a stock exchange. So, Sun Liniang looked at Yang Reform with admiration as if I understood.

Yang Reform nodded in agreement with a smile, and then said: "Yes, I really mean that. I plan to set up a few more places, and then make them a joint-stock system, and then sell stocks through the stock exchange. Haha, maybe those places are not as large as Liulizhai. It's so big, and it's not as profitable as Liulizhai, but it can win in more, maybe a few dozen or so stocks can be compared with Liulizhai, so it's a lot of money ..." Yang Reform explained with a smile.Yang Reform has now looked down on some small money, such as horse-drawn carriages. Although horse-drawn carriages are popular in the entire capital now, the money he earns is still small money. Up to now, he has only earned a few thousand or ten thousand taels of silver, which is comparable to that of Liulizhai. Compared with several million taels of silver, it is not enough. If I want to transfuse blood for the entire Ming Dynasty, I can't support the guy with thousands or tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Sun Liniang is already extremely adored.

"Young Master is really powerful. Others say that Wen can stabilize the country, martial arts can establish the country, and the power of the world. These are nothing compared to the young master! The young master's word, one idea, is better than many people's life. Strategies." Sun Liniang stared at Yang Reform with watery eyes, and put her hands on Yang Reform's neck, not ready to let go.

……

Coming out of Liulizhai, Yang Reform still sat in that spacious four-wheeled carriage, in a good mood, still admiring the scenery on both sides of the street.

Wang Chengen knocked on the carriage door.

Yang Reform opened the curtains, saw that it was Wang Chengen, and beckoned.

Only then did Wang Chengen open the door and come in. After entering, he bent over and said, "Master, I just received the news that Liu Xingzuo has arrived in the capital. What should I do with him?" Wang Chengen said in a low voice as much as possible.

"Liu Xingzuo? Oh, good news!" Yang Reform raised his eyebrows, and immediately said, who is Liu Xingzuo?This person is also famous in history, and the turning of history has something to do with him. At the end of Ming Dynasty, it was Hou Jin who transferred to the largest official of Ming Dynasty, and after Mao Wenlong died, he was in charge of one half of Mao Wenlong's remaining troops. , is a character.

"My lord, Liu Xingzuo escaped by feigning death. Donglu didn't know that he had surrendered to me, Daming, and thought he was dead. Therefore, I thought that my lord would keep his feigned death a secret. He and his brothers also wanted to escape... We must work together, son." Wang Chengen reminded.

Yang Reform knew about this matter. This matter existed as early as the Tianqi period. However, it has never been completed and was even discovered by wild boar skin. When he became emperor, he still contacted the Ming Dynasty, saying that anyway, now, This man finally succeeded.Yang Reform has checked this person's information. After joining the Ming Dynasty, he was not bad. In the end, he died for the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, it is still very valuable. From an ordinary soldier to a high-ranking official with wild boar skin , is indeed capable. For those who are capable, Yang Reform naturally does not dislike too much. What's more, this person died fighting for the Ming Dynasty. From this point of view, it can be trusted. More importantly, this People are the top management of the wild boar skin, or have a close relationship with the high level of the wild boar skin. Knowing a lot of inside information about the wild boar skin is absolutely very important. Yang Reform is very addicted to "writing books". People's "books" are very rewarding. This time, Yang Reform is going to write a "book" about wild boar skin.

"In this way, you find a safe place and let him stay first. Remember not to reveal his identity. When I am free, I will meet him in person. I have important things to do today. Send someone to pass on Li Ruolian. Let him enter the palace immediately, I have something to look for him." Yang Reform thought for a while and said immediately.The role of Liu Xingzuo is still very obvious. Recruiting high-ranking officials in wild boar skin is undoubtedly a strong political offensive. At that time, if we make a high-profile publicity, it will be enough for wild boar skin to drink a pot. I hope there will be more in the future. "example".

"Yes, my lord!" Wang Chengen agreed.

Although this matter is very important, there is still a more important matter to be done today, and it is not too urgent to meet Liu Xingzuo.
