From Chief to Ball

However, when Chen Jian posted this notice, Hu Lin approached Chen Jian and asked, "Are you short of money?"

"No shortage."

"Then what are you doing?"

"Common prosperity. Everyone becomes a businessman and owner of a workshop. Doesn't this make the whole people rich?"

Hu Lin gave Chen Jian a weird look, not knowing whether to believe it or not.

"After discussion, the finance committee wants to invest in part of the party property."

"Okay, but you can only subscribe for a maximum of five thousand silver coins."

"It's natural. Rules are rules."

"Chen Jian, why do I feel that something is wrong?"

"Brother Zhu Gan, you don't suspect that I am reluctant to let others make money, do you? When I throw money out, I don't blink an eye."

Hu Lin smiled and said: "No, no. I always feel that something is wrong. It is always a bit strange that you hurriedly dragged me and some comrades back from the canal. Nowadays, there are many people who can keep accounts. You also trained a group of accountants in [-], why are you dragging me back? Besides, why didn’t I hear anything about the franchise trade? You even told me about going to sea to seek death.”

Chen Jian laughed and said, "Actually, something is wrong. What would you say is the most popular investment in Mincheng?"

Hu Lin didn't even think about it: "Orchid."

"Then do you think orchids are worth so much money? I want to invite everyone to come back to watch the show. By the way, let everyone think about it. What is the difference between orchids and cotton cloth, grain, and glass? What is money? What is the price? Why does the price of cotton cloth roughly The board will guarantee that it is within a certain range, and it will not be lower than a certain price in the long run? What determines the value of these things... er, what is the price? Isn’t this something to ponder? You have to experience it yourself to suddenly understand.”

As soon as the words fell, Hu Lin seemed to understand something, and said in surprise: "You want to do something?"

"What am I doing? I also thought of it suddenly when I couldn't sleep a few nights ago."

Chen Jian replied with a smile, thinking in his heart that he must make money this time, even if he loses himself and subsidizes it, he must make people believe that investing money in his venture capital company can make a lot of money.There is no quicker way to raise money than illegal fundraising under the temptation of fanaticism. If you are afraid that you will be weak, but some people will tie everyone up, this is just an appetizer.

Hu Lin lowered his head, thinking about Chen Jian's previous question: What's the difference between flowers and cotton cloth?What does the price depend on?It seems to be very simple, it should be like this or that, but why does Hu Lin suddenly feel as if he can't understand this seemingly simplest question.

……

After the notice was posted, many people flocked to it, but the gatekeeper told everyone that the official investment would have to wait three days, and now they can ask some questions first, or go back to raise money.

14 silver coins is not a lot, and the minimum amount is only ten silver coins. Some people in the citizen class can also invest.

When everyone was thinking of ways to invest their money in other people's names, one person came to the consultation office of the red brick building holding two pots of bright orchids and a bunch of bulbs.

"You only accept cash, right?"

"correct."

"But I don't have any cash right now. Everyone is talking about Mr. Chen's risky trade these days, and the orchid transaction volume is very small. Look... can these orchids and bulbs of mine be offset by part of the money? After all, I have to invest money the day after tomorrow." Yes, but there is only a limit of 14 silver coins, I'm afraid it will be filled up if I arrive too late."

There were many people standing in front of the red brick building. The person holding the orchid came from nowhere, and he looked very anxious.

Indeed, after the news came out, the trading volume of orchids stagnated immediately. Many people wanted to seize the opportunity to invest their money in it, and they all wanted silver coins instead of orchid futures.

Many people on the sidelines sensed something was wrong and started to make quick moves, but no one took the offer.

The member of the trading company who was responsible for explaining the reception in front of the red brick building was a young man, as if he had just arrived here from Nan'an or a certain county, as if he didn't know the value of orchids at all.

Hearing this man finished speaking, the young man laughed out loud.

"I said, are you joking? How much is this flower worth? What we want is money, not flowers. Besides, even if this is a pawned place, the delicate flowers are worth two silver coins at most .In addition to your onions...the onions must be sold at the vegetable market."

The person holding the orchid said anxiously: "What onion? This is an orchid bulb, which can be sold for a lot of money. If I wasn't in a hurry to use cash, how could I be willing to sell it?"

Angrily, he said a discounted price, and the young man laughed.

"Tsk tsk, could it be that this is made of gold? You say it's valuable, but someone who likes flowers must buy it. If no one buys it, it's just an onion, not even as good as an onion. At least an onion can be eaten as a stir-fry. What can this shit do? It's not cotton, someone has to wear it; it's not grain, someone has to eat it; it's not glass, someone has to use it... You want me to give you an estimate of this thing, two silver coins, no more gone."

When the man heard this, he said angrily, "I can't explain to you. Is Mr. Chen there? Ask him to come out."

"Yes. You wait, I'll call. Mr. Chen is here, and your things are not worth the price."

The young man got up and entered the building, and led Chen Jian out after a while.

"Mr. Chen, you have seen the world, so my asking price is not too much, right?"

Chen Jian bent down to pick up a small grain of sand from the ground and said, "If someone is willing to buy this thing for [-] silver coins, it will be worth [-] silver coins? Then I spend [-] silver coins to buy a grain of sand, right? Can you take five grains of sand to me and get five thousand silver coins? Your... asking price is really too much."

"How can it be too much? What's the price now? You can ask."

Chen Jian laughed and said, "What price? That's the price only if someone takes over it. No one takes over it. It's just a potted flower, with a maximum of two silver coins. Besides, what's the current market price? People who like this flower basically have one It’s potted, so who wants the rest of the flowers? The rhizomes can reproduce every year, even if it’s worth the money this year... Hey, have you been to school?”

Suddenly asked such a question, the man nodded and said, "That's natural."

Chen Jian took out a plaster pen from his pocket, and wrote a number on the red brick wall in front of everyone.

"Even if there are two bulbs a year, even if there is a potted flower in Mincheng now. I estimate that if I can live to be 70 years old, then I can live another 50 years. Then let's do the math... Two changes to four, four to eight, eight to eight. Sixteen, sixteen changes 32..."

The first few numbers were inconspicuous, and they were still tolerable until the eighth year, but by the time of No. 16, everyone present had already started to panic...

Before Chen Jian counted to 50 years, when it reached more than [-] years, the expressions of all the people present changed.

"Roughly doing the math, in 50 years, that's 1000 trillion... 4000 zeros after one. Our country, men, women and children add up to 50 million, and there are only seven zeros behind it. What's the matter? 4000 years later, this thing will be counted as one For one silver coin, each person in the country needs to buy 4000 million pots, that is [-] million silver coins."

"Who has so much money? Even if it's the richest ones, if you sell them, can they raise so much money? And now the entire Min County's flowers are not in one pot."

"I am Mr. Xuegong, and you all know that I am the most reasonable and like to count. The calculation is here, you can see for yourself, how much do you think this flower is worth?"

Everyone present looked at the super long sixteen-digit number on the red brick wall, and were all stunned.

Counting carefully, swallowing their saliva one by one, he said to himself that at the current price of orchids, this nima is worth a pot of copper, and they will not be able to afford it in 50 years.There are more and more flowers, but the flowers can only be turned into money if they are sold to the next person, and the next person will always have an end, because there are not so many people with sixteen zeros after one.

With a bitter face, Chen Jian continued: "Don't say that what this flower bears is not gold and silver. Even if each flower bears a tael of gold and silver, after 50 years, each person will be divided into 400 million catties of gold. Isn't that gold and gold?" Is the sea water the same? Even if it is gold, it may not be replaced by a grain of wheat."

He raised his head and looked at the person holding the flowers.

Chen Jian made a very resolute expression, and refused: "I'm sorry, this flower is worthless to me. Of course, as long as there are people who continue to take over, your flower can still be sold. But there must be no one When you take over."

"In the hands of the person before the penultimate one, this flower can be regarded as a silver coin."

"However, everyone thinks that they are the second to last, but before the last one actually appears, what you think you are the second to last is just a guess and an expectation, but the reality is...you at this time This moment is the last one, and the penultimate one is just a possibility."

"Maybe these two words... are worth so much money?"

Chapter 123 The Flowers Are Beautiful

After those words, many people present looked at the potted flower stupidly, stared at the terrible number on the wall, and their hearts were beating wildly.

Before that, many people vaguely felt that something might go wrong.
