"Your Majesty, Han Guang reported that he, several other banks and our company, have purchased a total of 50,000 shares of the Mississippi Company."

Feng Xu, the head of the Imperial Bank, said.

"How many shares have been issued in total?"

His Majesty the Emperor, who was standing on the deck of the Great Oriental, said.

At this time, the giant cruise ship had basically been renovated. Because it belongs to the navy, the outside also uses the standard paint of naval warships, that is, red under the waterline, black on the waterline, white on the superstructure, and yellow Victorian style. There are also two dragons playing with beads at the bow of the ship. Three double four-inch turrets in front and back are installed, using the latest developed rapid-fire cannon, that is, the Armstrong tube retardation gun. The newly built Ming warships will all use rapid-fire cannons.

In addition, there are a large number of rotary guns and machine guns in the middle.

Although it is not a warship, these weapons are also indispensable. After all, this is His Majesty's ship. Moreover, in Emperor Yang's plan, this yacht often needs to sail without escort, so that the combat capability of a single ship cannot be too poor. In fact, the twelve four-inch rapid-fire cannons are already the bottom line that the cabinet can tolerate. In their opinion, it is at least enough to reach the level of a battleship. Of course, these weapons are controlled by young and beautiful female soldiers. After years of training, these female soldiers have now begun to officially serve. Next, they will drive this giant ship for long-distance training. They will have to train for at least one year before they can truly carry their beloved His Majesty on a long-distance journey.

"A total of 200,000 shares were issued, and the price per share was 500 livres, but this depends on the situation. It is not ruled out that additional issuances will continue in the future."

Feng Xu said.

“Then why not buy more?”

Yang Feng said.

While speaking, he looked at the young female soldiers in front of him. The latter obviously felt the emperor's gaze, and his faces were flushed and excitedly, and he was at a loss.

"They don't sell them. We use dragon dollars to buy these stocks. They obviously want to use this to get gold and silver. And they ask us to buy them, just to raise the stock price. We have bought a lot, and after the stock price is raised, the final profit is more us than them. To put it bluntly, they just want to even out these 50,000 shares in exchange for us to help them cheat domestic investors. Now Philip V is in urgent need of gold and silver. They are preparing to imitate our system and issue a large amount of banknotes at the gold standard. However, the Bank of France does not have much gold and silver in its hands. Philip V and John Law are now counting on this Mississippi company."

Feng Xu said.

"The French King, French Finance Minister and the Governor of the Bank of China, and a group of foreign capitalists jointly designed a scam and cheated the people of their own country. This is really interesting!"

Yang Feng said with a smile.

"Since that's the case, I'll help them and tell Qi Tai, let them take the French to find the super gold, silver and copper companion mine, and let Jinshan contact the Yin tribe there, try not to let them attack the French, and tell the Yin people that they will do it when I need them to do it. Now, try to let the French people see the light of gold."

He continued.

Now the Indians in western North America have accepted the saying that the Ming merchants came from the Kingdom of God, and relying on various trades including slaves, they have very good relations with the Ming Dynasty. Many Indians were even invited to the Ming Dynasty. After they returned, they spread the myths of Emperor Yang everywhere. It is not difficult for the Indians to do some small things now. Anyway, they just give face for a while. In the future, the French arrived in large numbers. Even if the Indians didn't want to, they would have to encourage them to fight!

Yang Feng's goal is actually only one, to push the late Mississippi company into the abyss of collapse, just like in history.

Voltaire is not enough.

As long as the French economy does not collapse, no matter how they promote it, they will never let the fire of the *** sweep across France. After all, the French people were a little hard and tired at this time, but they were not yet able to survive. Especially the middle class, although they yearned for freedom, equality and natural human rights in their thoughts, they were still very conservative in their actions. Only when the French economy collapsed and countless people went bankrupt, the fire of the *** can burn. The worse the French economy, the stronger the fire would burn.

The Mississippi company is the best opportunity to suck French wealth.

As for how to play...

"Blow it, blow this bubble hard!"

In the distant Paris, not far from the door of the Mississippi company, Han Guang was sitting in his carriage, watching the Frenchman who was crowded like crazy to subscribe to stocks, and was sinisterly talking to himself.

His and several Ming-funded consortiums in Paris purchased large-scale shares of Mississippi, which completely ignited the enthusiasm of French private investors for this company. Now, people with some money in France are rushing towards this company. The stock price is soaring at a terrifying speed. In just over a dozen days, the stock price of 500 Liver's stock has become a joke. It has now exceeded 2,000, which means that the 50,000 shares they have in their hands can make three times the profit as long as they are sold.

But they won't throw it.

Because it's still early!

It is said that the line set by His Majesty himself had risen to ten thousand livres. When he thought of this number, his eyes were filled with pity when he looked at the French.

In fact, unlike the Mississippi company, which was originally a purely scam in history, this time Philip V and Johnlao really wanted to establish a modern monetary system. After all, with the Bank of the Ming Empire in front, everyone understands the benefits of this monetary system, especially for Philip V, who was financially nervous and urgently needed a large amount of funds to maintain a luxurious life and military expansion. It was just that they lacked enough gold and silver to maintain credit. It was not difficult to issue paper money. The difficult thing was how to let the people accept it. Versailles

There are no local foundations for thousands of tons of gold underground in the palace, and the development of gold and silver mines in the Americas takes time, so this measure has to be taken. They received a large amount of gold and silver coins, and then used them as margin to issue paper money. In this way, the monetary system similar to the Bank of the Ming Empire was truly established, and then the gold and silver produced in the Americas supplemented the gold and silver that they were still missing, especially Philip V and Spain. That is to say, they could get all this on track with ten years.

However, they didn't know that all this was under the control of a black hand.

"Let's go to the People's Daily!"

After enjoying the fanatical scene in front of the Mississippi company, Han Guang said to his coachman.

Immediately afterwards, the carriage left the Mississippi Company and soon came to the People's Daily, which is not far away. The newspaper headquartered in Paris has now covered almost half of Europe's countries, with branches in more than a dozen cities including London, Rotterdam, Madrid, Rome, Stockholm, etc. Because of the radio of the Ming embassy and consulates in these cities, the news it publishes is always the latest. Other newspapers do not have this support, and many times the news has to be delayed for more than ten days or even months. The result is that it becomes the most authoritative newspaper in Europe, and all European newspapers use it as the benchmark.

Of course, the result is that it can bring a little bit of private goods.

Political satire series, column editorials of European consciences like Voltaire, the experiences of some European tourists in the Ming Dynasty, and some scandals of European monarchs and churches. These are all indoctrinated into the European people who long for freedom and equality through this newspaper, making the weeds grow wildly in their hearts. The European people regard it as a beacon, and all the people are proud of owning the People's Daily, and even specializing in this kind of newspaper has appeared.

In fact, even the monarchs of Europe cannot do without it.

They also rely on this newspaper to obtain external information in the shortest time. After all, even if they didn't even have a Schappe signal at this time, they were still in an era when they rely on post road horses to convey information. What happened in Madrid was that Philip V would have to know in Paris for several days. But the newspaper of the People's Daily could make almost half of Europe know about it the next day, and of course, it must also include Philip V. It is precisely because of this point that this newspaper often publishes something that makes them unhappy, but the monarchs of Europe could not directly ban it.

Just after Han Guang walked into the headquarters of the People's Daily, a large number of people outside stared at the place in various identities, immediately reported to their respective owners, and then all the noble capitalists in Paris widened their eyes.

That night, these guys got insider news again.

Han Guang, who left the People's Daily, found John Law again and asked the latter to sell him a portion of the Mississippi stock, otherwise he would ask the domestic arms dealer of the Ming Dynasty to suspend the export of arms to France. In this case, John Law had to sell him another 10,000 shares.

what does that mean?

This means that Han Guang has mastered a major positive news.

Then everyone stared at the newspaper the next day. Unfortunately, no special news was published on the People's Daily the next day. However, the next day, more Ming merchants in France began to flock to Mississippi Company, and even from other provinces and other European countries came from afar. The French were even more sure that Mississippi Company's stock soared from two thousand to four thousand at a terrifying speed in the next month.

A month later, Gao Hao finally arrived.

The People's Daily published a news article that was a month late and discovered a super giant mine on a prospecting team in the upper Colorado River.

“Two hundred years!

Gold, silver and copper that cannot be collected for two hundred years.

Under that land with a range of less than ten square kilometers, there are more than one billion tons of ore, and those ores are filled with gold, silver and copper. If you go there and put a basket of stones, you can turn them into all the metal currencies we use!”

That's what the newspaper says.

Then the French were really crazy, and the Mississippi company's stock price rose sharply like a rocket, five thousand, six thousand, seven thousand...

Ten thousand is not a dream.

In order to buy the increasingly intimate Mississippi stocks, the French tried their best. All the ladies and ladies in Paris disappeared from banquets everywhere. They were all in Mr. John Law's reception room, waiting for the latter's reunion. Well, this word is not an exaggeration at all. These days, Mr. John Law often encounters beautiful women when he goes out. The solution is to sell the latter's stocks. At the same time, some small companies relying on the Mississippi company have emerged to solve the problem that the French people have money and have nowhere to spend it.

Their gold and silver flowed into the Mississippi Company for stocks, and then into the vault of the Bank of France. In this case, Philip V finally began his dream of large-scale printing of money. Liverell banknotes continued to flow out of the printing press, and domestic material procurement through French finances surged to the public. However, because the Mississippi Company collected paper money, the public did not refuse this thing. Anyway, it was a gold and silver standard. As for Philip V's issue too many problems, this first had the stock market to make a banknote shredder. The second Mississippi Company's gold and silver mine was its credibility guarantee. The rapid development of the French economy brought about by this made people ignore this problem. In the end, the banknotes were remitted to the surging wave and gradually brought France to the era of paper money.

But people have forgotten that the foundation of all this is Mississippi Company, and the foundation of all this is this project that is still a waste of money at present.

Until now, the French Mississippi Company has not produced even a gold coin, a silver coin, or even the gold and silver mines found in the upper reaches of the Colorado River are all wilderness, a wilderness that is still marked on the map on the French colonial map, but in fact, the French government has no ability to control at all. But what's the big deal? The French army will eventually turn it into France, and the Mississippi Company miners will eventually mine the gold and silver. The reputation that has been seriously overdrawn will be supplemented with time. Everything will be achieved, but now it is a little bit forward.

It's no big deal.

It's no big deal!

If there is no black hand behind him holding a butcher knife waiting to start slaughtering.
