Royal Gold Magistrate

Lai Gou'er sighed, feeling a little headache: "Fortunately, you came in time, and now I have less than [-] shells here."

"The opponent has made up their minds to consume us, and the main force can't defend. Moreover, there are so many of them, and they take turns to harass us day and night. My side is under a lot of pressure."

Zheng Hui smiled: "After studying with me for so many years, now it's not enough to be a real guy?"

Lai Gou'er said helplessly: "They have a great advantage in supplies, and their generals are very thieves. Brother Zheng, look."

As he spoke, he led Zheng Hui to the observation port, handed over the binoculars, pointed to the front and said, "When the church first came, it should have been divided into several waves, each coming from a different path."

"The main force is the Hero Kingdom and the Temple Army. The rest don't even have decent equipment. They should be peasants and soldiers who rebelled against the lords."

"Those who are the tallest are the Templar Army. Although they are in good health, their organization is obviously scattered and somewhat disorderly. The most elite is the Hero Army."

"This month has passed, and now all of them are acting very regularly and cooperating properly. It can be seen that the opponent's general has retrained these people within a month. It is really amazing."

Zheng Hui narrowed his eyes, and said seriously: "Well, if it's true as you said...it seems that the church still has experts."

Immediately, he turned around and shouted: "Adjutant! Adjutant!"

"You fucking Italian gun! Pull me up!"

After the adjutant left, Zheng Hui said with a smile: "It's easy for the opponent to see that the ammunition is not enough. Let's wait for him for a few more days, and give him some surprises when they dare to come up."

"You have always had good eyesight. You have seen which one is the main general. If he dares to show his face, try to kill him with one shot."

Lai Gou'er nodded excitedly.

The range of the Italian gun is unusual, and it is much better than the old gun. This time, it may be able to make a difference and catch the opponent by surprise.

Zheng Hui said again: "When we settle this side, we will go straight to the holy city. Now we don't have to worry about tearing our faces."

"No." Lai Gou'er stopped him, "Brother Zheng, I originally planned to hand over the responsibility of defending the city to other people after the reinforcements arrived, and I will take people by sea to directly attack the holy city."

"Fika's side will maintain the city's defenses. As long as the Holy City is defeated, the news will be sent back to us to avoid the war immediately. There is no need for a frontal conflict, and the sacrifice of soldiers is in vain."

Zheng Hui looked at him and said, "It's simple, are you sure?"

Lai Gou'er thought for a while, and said seriously: "So I'm [-]% sure, but after seeing the Templars, I'm [-]% sure."

"The interior of the holy city is rotten, and the people at the bottom have been dissatisfied for a long time. Even the layout of the brotherhood over there has even got the internal map of the temple. Now you have Italian guns here... As long as the core can solve the holy The upper echelons of the temple can do it, their city defense is very loose, and the regular army will settle the civil strife at that time, as long as they take the opportunity to launch an attack with internal and external cooperation, it will not be a big problem."

"How many people are you going to bring?" Zheng Hui asked.

"It's expensive but not expensive. I want 3000 people to be enough. I've been to the holy city, so it may not be possible to use it if there are too many people. If Brother Zheng agrees, I plan to set off immediately in a few days."

Zheng Hui thought for a while, then pondered: "This is not a small matter, and I don't know the holy city, so I can't accompany you. The port of Fika is far more important than the holy city. If you really want to go, I won't stop it. After all, it is The imperial court made a decision long ago, but 3000 people is still a bit small in my opinion."

"5000 people. If you bring twenty Italian cannons, your chances are much greater. If things fail, withdraw immediately and make plans."

"You are young, military achievements are rare, but life is more important."

Agreed this is?

Lai Gou'er's heart was surging, and he said in a deep voice, "Thank you Brother Zheng."

......

"Xihai Trading's stock price has exceeded five taels now, and the upward trend is still going strong. According to my opinion, this trend can reach at least eight taels in the next few months."

"Your Majesty's eyes are as bright as a torch. When it comes to investment, it is beyond the reach of my ministers."

In the Hall of Mental Cultivation, there is a huge map of the West in front of the imperial case, and some reports are scattered on the map.

Originally, the cabinet was invited to come here to briefly discuss the affairs of the West.

While talking, the topic began to shift to stocks unconsciously.

Most of the courtiers are also happy to listen.

Who doesn't buy stocks now?

Still counting on farming to earn money for the family?

I can't get on the poker table for the rest of my life!

"Master Li, it's been so long that I don't know what stocks your family bought? What's your opinion on this?" Emperor Jing asked.

Li Yansong was originally in a lack of interest, and when he heard Emperor Jing's question, he cheered up and said: "Return to Your Majesty, I am not afraid of your Majesty's jokes, the old minister always thinks that this stock matter is too mysterious, making money out of thin air, making money is not stable."

"The stock price goes up and down... The old minister really doesn't understand."

Emperor Jing smiled and said: "Conservative, conservative! Then did you buy it or not?"

"Bought it."

"What did you buy?"

"What does the Marquis of Jianye buy, what does the minister buy."

After Li Yansong finished speaking, several courtiers stretched their heads and retracted their necks and whispered.

"That's right, Mr. Li is right."

"That's right, it's definitely right to buy with Fangzheng! As expected of Mr. Li, Jiang is still old and spicy."

"How can Hou Jianye be the one who suffers... Has any of you ever seen him suffer?"

"I haven't seen it, I haven't seen it..."

Emperor Jing snorted: "Although Zhengyi is behind the exchange, it is a brand new thing after all."

"No matter how smart he is, I don't believe he is proficient in stocks. The way of stock trading is quite complicated, and the general trend of people's hearts is also involved."

"You guys, do you regard him as a stock god? The Dajing Railway stock he holds now has risen very slowly. It is unwise to choose it. On the other hand, Xihai..."

Emperor Jing began to talk about his experience in stock trading, and he had the momentum not to give up until he explained it to everyone.

The words were in full swing, and an eunuch rushed over from outside the palace, and the eunuch was sweating: "Your Majesty, something is wrong."

Xing was disturbed, Emperor Jing said displeased: "Why is something so bad?"

"It's reported from outside the palace that Xihai's business has plummeted, and it's dropped by five renminbi in one go! It's being sold out one after another."

While His Majesty was talking, it started to fall over there, the slap in the face came too fast!

The courtiers hurriedly lowered their heads, for fear of meeting eyes with Emperor Jing.

what!

Emperor Jing remained calm, and said suspiciously: "It's unreasonable! The gains in the past two days have been very good, and today they are all selling. Could it be that they are wrong?"

The eunuch swallowed, with horror in his eyes: "Absolutely, the servant has confirmed that it is absolutely right!"

"It's a good thing that the stock price of Xihai Trading has fallen. Many people who have a heavy position in this stock are crying outside the exchange. Three people climbed to the top of the exchange and jumped off the building in public!"

Everyone's countenance changed!

Three commoners jumped off the building in public at the exchange, and the sky was clear in broad daylight. This was not a trivial matter.

Emperor Jing's body was covered with hairs, and he was no longer calm.

The stock price... the stock price has really dropped!But now is not the time to worry about that.

"Then... are those three people still alive?" Emperor Jing's voice trembled faintly.

The eunuch nodded bitterly: "Alive! Nothing happened."

"Jin Yiwei sent a group of people to guard the area in advance. When someone jumped off the building, they were caught with a net underneath."
