Behind me is the earth

Chapter 394 392. Fanaticism

Li Baosheng worked diligently in the fields for half his life, but because his family was poor, he was never able to marry a wife. When he was in his early thirties, the eldest brother Cao in the village suddenly ran to his house and asked him: "Do you want a wife?" You open Chrysostom, and I will bring it to you later."

"Then just send it over."

Li Baosheng didn't think much about it at the time. He just felt that his family was so poor that he couldn't get rid of it. His brothers, relatives, and neighbors all despised him. How could any girl be willing to marry into his family?

But unexpectedly, Lao Cao actually sent him a girl of eighteen or nineteen years old.

They are refugees from Zhongzhou in the north.

Not only was this girl pretty, but she was also literate. She was once a rich girl who ended up in this land because of the war.

As an older leftover man, Li Baosheng happily married the girl. When mice came in the empty rice vat, he had to catch them and roast them. Of course, he didn't have the money to hold a wedding. He just said something in the village and the two of them lived together.

When the girl came, she had an extra mouth to eat, and gave him two cubs. Li Baosheng was digging in the ground for food. After paying the rent, he couldn't grow enough food for four mouths. In the end, I simply ran away from Yanshi County to work in Qingcheng Town. At that time, factories were being set up in Qingcheng Town, and there were job opportunities everywhere.

Li Baosheng found a job driving screws on the production line and worked day and night. After a few years, he finally saved a sum of money. Although it was not much, he was very grateful to His Highness King Qi. It was this job opportunity and these wages supported him. They are a family of four.

Therefore, he often ran to the square in front of the town government office to bow and kowtow to the statue of King Qi.

A few days ago, his wife divorced him and insisted that he go home and go to the Yamen to divorce the marriage.

He knew that Guyi County had also developed in the past two years, and Yanshi County was close to Qingcheng Town and had a good momentum of development.

This year, Yanyan County also established Yanyan Station. Because his wife was literate, she applied for a job as a window conductor at the station. She received more than 200 yuan a month. Her dress and temperament were very good. She talked about what her colleagues were doing at home. , sisters, what are your husbands like?

Li Baosheng could see clearly that his wife had flown up the branch, her eyes were high, and she could no longer look down on him, a screwdriver.

Today, although he had already expected it, he actually went to the Yamen to get the divorce certificate. He walked on the street in a daze for a while, feeling empty and empty.

"Li Baosheng, you have to cheer up, there are still two children for you to raise!"

Li Baosheng patted his cheek and walked towards a fly restaurant on the roadside. This kind of small shop next to the factory only deals with the manual workers in the factory. Let’s not talk about whether they work well or not. At least the portions are large and cheap, otherwise they will not be able to survive here at all.

I ordered fried pickles and chili batter, and when I was sweating while eating the cornmeal buns, my coworker Wang Datou ran in like a gust of wind.

"Oh, Big Head, run slower. It's icy here, so don't fall."

The shopkeeper yelled.

Wang Datou ignored the shopkeeper, rushed straight to Li Baosheng, and patted him on the shoulder with all his strength: "Baosheng, let's go to Dongyang County with me!"

"Don't make trouble, I still have to work in the afternoon."

Li Baosheng was not interested. He breathed in the spicy fried red pepper, but he felt very warm and enjoyable. Even the pit of his heart, which was feeling cold and cold, did not feel so warm. Feeling bad.

"Why are we still working! We will take the train to Dongyang County in the afternoon. The stocks we bought have gone up!!!"

Wang Datou was so excited that he held Li Baosheng's head with both hands and stopped him from eating. He grabbed his wrist with all his strength and actually wanted to grab him and leave.

"Stocks? The stocks of the First Steel Plant we bought a few days ago? Has it gone up? How much has it gone up?"

When Li Baosheng saw Wang Datou like this, he couldn't help but asked curiously.

Just a few days ago, someone claiming to be from the Dongyang Exchange came to Qingcheng Town to sell shares of the First Steel Plant.

Li Baosheng had no contact with them and directly regarded these people as liars. She didn't have much money to begin with, and her mother-in-law scolded her every day for being incompetent. She said that the money she earned was not enough to buy her a beautiful dress. As a result, she could only wear a blue sky cloth when going out. She just went to work and was looked down upon for nothing.

Therefore, he never thought about buying it at first.

But later on, Wang Datou didn't know how he was deceived. He was obsessed with buying stocks and whispered in Li Baosheng's ears every day like running water.

In addition, at that time, his wife started to divorce him, and she was in a low mood. She had the idea of ​​​​breaking the pot, but also had some expectations of getting ahead. Wang Datou took out her savings and went to find it with him. The salesmen on those exchanges bought twelve hundred shares.

"How much has it increased? It has increased more than three hundred times!!!"

Wang Da's head and neck were red, the veins on his forehead burst out, the excitement in his eyes had nowhere to vent, and his whole person was in an inexplicable state of excitement!

"More than three hundred times?"

Li Baosheng was confused and subconsciously calculated how much more than three hundred times would be.

He had no education, and he couldn't calculate the number for a long time. He only knew that the number was very, very big.

"More than 700,000 yuan, more than 700 taels of silver!!"

Wang Datou said to him in a low voice.

"What!?"

Li Baosheng's face turned red visibly, as if he had drunk two kilograms of wine. His vision went dark and he was about to fall back.

Fortunately, Wang Datou supported him.

Immediately, the two people ran wildly towards the door.

"Hey hey hey, I haven't paid yet!"

the shopkeeper yelled.

"Keep the accounts first, and I'll give you ten times as much when I get back!!"

Wang Datou shouted without looking back.

"Ten times? You, Wang Datou, haven't paid back the money you owe, so you're pretending to be a wolf with a big tail."

When the shopkeeper saw them running away and failing to catch up, he couldn't help but muttered something.

"But what's going on with this stock?"

A few days ago, salesmen also came to sell stocks. He wanted to buy it several times. After all, the First Steel Plant was on this street, and it was something that could be seen and touched. And he heard the salesman said that it would double if it went on the market. He was tempted and wanted to buy it, but He was stopped by the guy at home.

After all, it's just a piece of paper. You can sell it for two pennies per piece, which is enough to buy several large white flour buns.

"No one's money comes from strong winds. You lie to others! Get out! Get out! Get out!"

At that time, the man in the house was throwing people out with a broom and scolding them.

It just so happened that it was not lunch time, and there was no one in the store at this time. He closed the store door leisurely and walked out.

Not far away, I heard someone discussing stocks on the roadside. I smiled and picked up an apple from an acquaintance's stall nearby, and joined in.

The acquaintance was feeling distressed about the apple that had been taken away from him, when he saw the shop owner who was in the crowd let out a "quacking" sound and fell straight back.

The acquaintance hurriedly ran over and pinched Renzhong to calm him down. The shopkeeper finally woke up and said: "Shrew! I can't fucking beat you to death today!!"

As he spoke, he pushed away the acquaintance and staggered back towards his store.

"What's going on? Is that kid from home stealing someone out there?"

The eyes of acquaintances flashed with gossip.

Human beings' joys and sorrows are not the same. In the square in front of the Dongyang Exchange, there was a roar of people. Their emotions were like boiling water in an iron pot. The excitement turned into sounds, as if they were about to tear down the roof of the exchange.

"It's gone up! It's gone up! It's gone up again!!"

"Oops!! It's too early!!! I'm too damn early!!"

"Why has it gone up again!! I haven't gotten on the bus yet! I haven't gotten on the bus yet!!"

"It's 710 cents! It's 710 cents per share!! Oh my god, it's already increased 355 times!!"

"This stock is so profitable!! But the price is too high, I can only buy one share with my money!!"

"Whoever still has the ticket, our master will buy it at a high price for 750 cents per share! You are a good boy! Trade with cash!"

Someone shouted from the crowd.

But the crowd was reluctant to sell out, and even after shouting around, they couldn't get a few tickets.

There were also some foreigners in the crowd, who looked at these fanatical Chinese people with shocked faces, wondering what they were doing staring at the big screen with jumping numbers.

Religious worship?

But it seems to be filled with the smell of copper!

"I'm rich! I'm rich!"

Brown shouted excitedly, holding a stack of beautifully printed bills in his hand, with a majestic gate painted on them and the words "Qingcheng No. 1 Steel Plant" written on them.

A few days ago, he finally applied for a visa and could travel to Yunmeng County.

He didn't find a gambling house, so he happened to hear a salesman selling stocks, so he bought some. As a result, he made the most money in his life.

He was different from most sailors who dreamed of buying a boat and hiring crew members to go to sea. He wanted to obtain the identity of Jingguo and then settle down in Jingguo as a Jingguo native!

In a box on the third floor of the exchange, Chen Chunfu, director of the steel plant, sat near the window, holding a cup of tea and looking at the enthusiastic crowd in the square outside.

"Congratulations to Director Chen. Now the steel factory will no longer be short of money."

Opposite him, Hu Jixiang from Hu's firm congratulated him.

"Congratulations should be given to Director Dai. Dongyang Exchange has truly become a hit this time!"

Chen Chunfu cupped his hands in front of a man with a white face, no beard, wearing a long gown, and a bookish look, who looked to be in his thirties.

"It's also thanks to Director Chen. If it weren't for the First Steel Plant, it would be difficult to have the grand occasion of these two days."

Dai Qing was originally an economics professor at Yuntai University and was considered a scholar-type official.

"This should be thanked for the wisdom of the prince. As the first listed company, the No. 1 Steel Plant was decided by the prince in order to transfer the dividends of development to the people and use this opportunity to make the exchange an instant success. "

Chen Chunfu cupped his hands towards the south and said seriously.

"Your Majesty's far-sightedness is truly admirable!"

Dai Qing also said with a look of admiration and his true colors.

Seeing the political correctness of the two people in front of him, Hu Jixiang quickly said: "What Director Chen and Director Dai said is true. Your Majesty is like a beacon guiding Wuzhou people forward, the direction of the development of Wuzhou Province, and the entire landscape." The savior the country desperately hopes for!"

Chen Chunfu and Dai Qing looked at Hu Jixiang at the same time: "What shopkeeper Hu said is true."

"Director Acting, do you think Hu's firm has any chance of being listed for trading?"

Hu Jixiang took the opportunity to say.

"Hu's cloth shop is now very big. I heard that in addition to stores all over Wuzhou, there are also cloth shops in Anhui, Hehe, Yuzhou, Jian'an, Pingshan, Chujiang and other provinces. In addition, there are Weaving factories and garment factories were opened in Qingcheng Town, Le County and Yile County respectively."

Dai Qing said.

"The acting director actually understands my little businessman so clearly. He is really diligent, caring for the people, and knowledgeable."

Hu Jixiang praised.

"Ha ha ha ha."

Dai Qing smiled and said: "Boss Hu is too humble. Hu's cloth business is now second to none among private capital. Understanding private capital is a mountain that cannot be bypassed. If I don't understand it anymore, I will really be derelict in my duties."

Dai Qing knew in his heart that it was because Hu Jixiang saw the benefits of going public that he paid him such compliments. In the past, the exchange was just a place to display information and arrange transactions. I would never receive such courtesy from these big businessmen.

He rubbed the corners of his eyebrows alertly. In the next few days, with the heat and fermentation of the stock market, a large number of businessmen will gradually have a clear understanding of the exchange, and they will immediately feel like cats that have smelled something fishy. If everyone comes around, he must cheer up.

The officials from the Department of Integrity who had just arrived this morning were probably here to keep an eye on him.

In the next few days, after the stock increased 380 times, it finally stabilized in a price range.

Just as Dai Qing imagined, Dongyang Exchange has deeply shocked the hearts of the majority of businessmen in the past few days.

No one lives in a vacuum. The ability of these businessmen to ask for help has reached the realm of transformation. Dai Qing had to meet many people. In just a few days, the threshold of his home was trampled by these people!

Although Dai Qing was tired of dealing with this situation, he knew in his heart that Dongyang Exchange had truly entered the hearts of the majority of businessmen, and also deeply entered the eyes of the people in this carnival of benefit.

As long as the future work is carried out step by step, Dongyang Exchange will be successful.

"Master, the New Year is approaching. When I went to Master Zheng's house a few days ago, I saw Mrs. Zheng buying a new thing, and there was someone singing inside. It was very nice."

After Dai Qing dealt with a businessman from Chujiang that day, his wife arranged his clothes before going out and said.

"Gramophone? I don't have one in my hometown. I'll go home in a few days and bring it back after the New Year."

Dai Qing said.

"It's not a gramophone, it's an object called a radio. I heard it was produced in Qingcheng Town. It has been sold to Yunmeng County these days. You can pay attention to it when you go out."

The lady ordered.

"Okay, I'll pay attention."

Dai Qing carried his briefcase and went out with an entourage.

It was not necessary for him to pay special attention. When he walked past a newly opened store not far from the exchange, he heard a burst of melodious music coming from inside. An excerpt from "The Legend of White Snake" was being played. Many people were already attracted in front of the door. Watching there.
