From Chief to Ball

"Hey, don't stand there, come here and give him a hand, I have to carry him outside. This man is dead from drinking water, dead, and his body is hard."

A few idlers hurried over, helped to lift the dead man on his shoulders, and were about to leave in a mess.

The female worker listened to it for a while, and understood something, and thought that no one bought this orchid?

Looking at the potted flowers scattered by the river after the crowd dispersed, he shouted, "You don't want these flowers anymore?"

The person in front didn't even look back, and shouted: "Dead people's things, whoever wants them, take them. It's best not to touch this thing, it will ruin the family."

A few days ago, the orchids, which could make people crazy and even be used as money, were randomly placed by the river when the new year was approaching, and the color was still gorgeous.

The female worker thought about it, and went over to pick up a pot, thinking that the flowers are actually quite beautiful, so I will take them home and keep them, anyway, this thing only drinks water and does not eat.Four years ago, I was also a girl who loves flowers.

She lowered her head and randomly picked up a pot of flowers. Her ravine fingers subconsciously touched the bottom of the flower pot. Even though her fingers were already rough, a pebble in the mud under the flower pot still awakened her memory from a few years ago.

This seems to be the pot that was stolen from her. Of course, it was not stolen by the old man who owned land and a mill outside the city, but it was passed into the old man's hands after I don't know how many times.

In fact, there are many flowerpots with stones at the bottom, but the female worker still wants to believe that this is the one she threw.

She thinks so, so be it.

Holding it in my hand again, my heart is calm, because this is just a potted flower, just a potted flower.

After returning, he put down the flower pot beside the straw pile where he lived.

The river has already been watered, so nothing needs to be done now.

Amidst the creaking sound of spinning, another female worker glanced at the corner while changing the shuttle, and said, "This flower looks pretty."

"Well, it's pretty nice."

The female worker replied, looking back over the years, it was the same as before, and smiled.

"It's really pretty."

He murmured to himself, twisted the end of the thread skillfully, and stopped looking up.

The flower is still the potted flower, the potted flower that I once imagined, but now it has returned to my hand after a round, after all, nothing can be changed.

Flowers are not hopes, but the money from selling them is.

But now it can't be sold, and the flowers are still there, so where is the hope at the beginning?

Chapter 124 Avalanche

There is basically no snow in Min County, except for a few times during the great famine many years ago.

So in the face of the sudden collapse of Lanhua futures and trading, no one thought of the adjective avalanche, and naturally they would not think of the saying that no snowflake is innocent at the time of an avalanche, so all the anger was vented on Lanhua and the officials. body.

After the news of the venture capital investment of the Red Brick Building came out, Chen Jian calculated a big number of two to the fifty power to scare people.

In just one day, unprecedented scenes appeared in the speculative and futures markets that were originally falsely prosperous.

Originally because of the fundraising, some speculators and wealthy citizens who saw the problem clenched their money bags, and planned to invest the money in the maritime trade venture capital that would start raising in three days.

After all, it is a real thing, and people who are fanatical to the extreme are still a little sober.

This has led to the stagnation of orchid futures speculation. If it is only stagnation, there will always be a time for people to see hope.

However, on the afternoon of the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month, a dozen people suddenly rushed into the Orchid Futures Exchange, eager to sell at only [-]% of the price in the morning.

It would have been stagnant, people were just sitting on the sidelines because they needed cash, so the price didn't plummet in the morning.

When these dozen or so people started to sell, some people sensed that something was wrong and did not dare to accept the offer, but quickly sent someone outside to inquire.

By evening, the numbers on the walls of the red brick building and the words in front of the brick walls had spread, and all the speculators and wealthy citizens knew what Chen Jian said.

That night, the whole city of Min was in chaos.

The years of false prosperity have involved too many people in Mincheng, as well as too much liquidity. This is no longer just a matter of a few or dozens of people.

In the early morning of the next day, the teahouse and wine shop, which was busy every day to disseminate transaction information, had not yet opened, and a lot of people had already gathered outside.

Many people are still holding on to the last sliver of fantasy. Maybe there are still people who have not heard the news and will come to collect the bottom line.

Or, even if it's not sold at the normal price, even if you don't make that much money, even if you get back the money you spent on the purchase.

But the reality quickly made these people despair.

It was the end of the new year, and it was the time when the bulb futures that were scheduled for spring and summer were traded. Those who bought the futures only paid some deposits in advance, but did not give the full amount of money.

Originally, the futures bills with the quantity written on them could be exchanged for shiny silver coins within a day, but now they are just a piece of waste paper.

Those who booked the futures calculated the gains and losses and never showed up.

They decided to sell these futures bills, and the deposit they paid would be ignored, and it would be a waste of money.It would be better to do this than to spend more money.

However, the speculators who have booked the bulb futures would not agree. They only got a deposit for these futures bills, but this deposit is less than one-third of the cost and the money they spent on speculation.

One side wants to renege on the debt, and the other side wants the other side to continue to admit it despite the apparent avalanche of the entire market.

The speculators who were friendly the day before turned against each other overnight. Dozens of big speculators risked their lives. They thought that someone would take over this time and they would not do it, but they did not expect that they would be the last to take over. people.

And those who use spot and cash transactions are even more crying.

The person who got the bulb or orchid found the buyer a few days ago and wanted to get his money back, even half of it.

However, the person who has already received the money took out a receipt with stamp duty, telling the buyer that the transaction has been completed and there is no way to return it now.

After all, this is not forced buying and selling, but a normal mutually beneficial transaction. You can’t say that you bought it from me, and you want to get the money back if it’s worthless the next day, right?If the price has increased, why didn't I see you share half of the increased price with me?

This kind of chaos came at noon, and there was a turning point. A speculator might think it was profitable and decided to buy it at a price of 30.00% of the original price.

But just half an hour after the news came out, facing the swarming businessmen, this big speculator knew that he had guessed wrong, gritted his teeth and accepted the previous transaction, and interrupted the subsequent transaction.

It seems like a flashback, the avalanche-like market only strengthened for a while at noon, and then fell all the way.

By the evening of the next day, the trading price of bulb futures had become [-]% of the previous day's, but even so, no one paid for it.

And looking at this trend, it seems that there is a possibility of continuing to fall tomorrow.

All the people in Mincheng who were involved in the orchid speculation went crazy and couldn't believe what happened in the past two days.

The futures note in my hand was worth thousands of silver coins two days ago, and I saw that I could repay the loan I borrowed by changing hands, but the note shrank to a value of dozens of silver coins in two days.

The orchid in my hand, two days ago, was a flower of hope that the family had saved for many years, and it turned into a pot of broken flowers in two days, which made the whole family fall into despair...

It's like a broken dam, once a gap appears, it's out of control and can't be stopped anymore.
