Chapter 75 The Story of Tulips
Ice Emperor led the five little ones to sit in a row in front of Cheng Ying, waiting for Cheng Ying to tell his story.
"This is a story about flowers, and it is also a story that reminds us to stay rational before temptation.
The story also begins with a group of businessmen hoarding goods. It was a crazy era when everyone yearned to get rich overnight. Sailors on long voyages brought back countless wealth from the distant New World, and this wealth prompted people to want to
More.
So, someone focused on tulips, a beautiful flower, a beautiful and rare flower, and they were hoarded in large quantities, and the price skyrocketed.
People's admiration for tulips grew stronger and stronger, eventually showing a morbid admiration and enthusiasm for them, so that owning and growing this flower gradually became a symbol of high prestige.
And because they are extremely easy to be infected by viruses during their development, the petals may often appear in flame-like colors. Those infected tulip bulbs are considered more precious, and the weirder they are, the more precious they are.
For a time, a large number of speculators poured into the country, hoping to get a share of this gluttonous feast. Following this, tulips gradually transformed from a flower into a symbol of money.
People came up with countless legends and gave it countless excellent qualities. For a while, it seemed that this kind of flower should only exist in the kingdom of heaven. It even set a record of the price increasing fifty-nine times in one year." Cheng Ying said here,
After a pause, he looked at the expectant expressions on everyone's faces and seemed to want to participate in such a feast, so he continued:
"People are buying and hoarding tulips like crazy. As long as they cultivate their bulbs, new bulbs will soon grow and then sell for a higher price. As for whether the price of tulips will rise, it seems to be a no-brainer.
The question is, it has skyrocketed fifty-nine times in one year. Isn’t the increase natural?
People in that country thought so, until one day, a young sailor was a foreigner. He had just arrived, and he didn't know that there was a tulip speculation wave in the country.
The sailor was rewarded by the shipowner for his hard work. When he left the ship, he took a tulip bulb named "Eternal Augustus". The shipowner spent 3,000 gold coins to buy the bulb from the Amsterdam Exchange.
of.
When the ship owner discovered that the tulips were missing, he went to look for the sailor and found him in a restaurant, only to find that the sailor was contentedly eating the bulbs with smoked fillet." At this point, Chengying once again said
There was a pause, but no one dared to say anything.
Because the story developed to this point, everyone only woke up at this moment. The tulip was just a kind of flower, not real money.
Flowers will breed, and there will be more and more bulbs, even growing exponentially, but in the future, who will be the final takeover? Facing the ending of the story, everyone seems to be facing an overwhelming avalanche,
The sound of breathing became quieter for a while.
"The sailor knew nothing of the value of the tulip bulbs, which he thought were like onions and should be eaten with herrings.
A bulb worth thousands of gold coins looked like an onion to a stranger. It was difficult for the judge to decide whether the sailor was crazy or the Dutch were too irrational.
However, it was this accident that was like a bomb, causing panic on the Amsterdam Exchange. Cautious speculators began to reflect on this strange phenomenon, and the result of the reflection was without exception, they had fundamental doubts about the value of tulip bulbs.
A very small number of people felt that something was not good and began to sell bulbs at low prices. Some sensitive people immediately began to follow suit. Then more and more people got involved in the wave of panic selling, and the storm finally came.
The price of tulips plummeted and everyone was selling. The exchange issued a statement that there was no reason for the price of tulips to fall and called on everyone not to sell. But now that the avalanche has started, there is no way to stop it.
People began to seek help from the state and the law, but the judge had no choice but to say that the tulip transaction was not protected by the law. People were completely desperate!
Those who used to cry with joy because of their sudden wealth are now crying to the sky because of the sudden poverty. It is like a nightmare. When I wake up, I pinch my face with my hands and realize that the reality is in the dream.
.”
Having said this, Cheng Ying pointed to the flower he called "Clivia" in the greenhouse: "This flower named Clivia is equally beautiful, equally rare, and can also be endowed with myths and various beautiful qualities.
With appropriate hype, will it set off the same storm?"
After Cheng Ying said that, he calmly looked at the rows of little bean sprouts sitting in rows, which looked very much like the villain boss behind the scenes. For a while, you could hear a pin drop in the cabin, and after a while, there was a series of words that made you swallow your saliva.
the sound of.
"Teacher...it's not good for you to do this!" Although Tang Chen was wary of foreign races, Cheng Ying's hands were too dark to be washed away! He was the villain behind the scenes! He really wanted to clear his name.
The kind that cannot be washed. If this round continues, countless people will have their families broken up and their wives and children separated. Even if they are aliens, they are still living people!
"What? I can't stand it anymore? What if I tell you, this is only half of the plan?" Cheng Ying asked with a smile. He did have the other half of the plan to ensure that this terrible economic bubble was only his own.
It can be pierced, and that method is dirtier than the current one.
"Teacher, this is a desperate plan! Even if we may become enemies in the future, there is no need to do this!" As girls, Bo Saixi and Chao Tianxiang couldn't stand it at first, but Meng Shu and Dugu Bo didn't have any objection at all.
, you can even see the inexplicable excitement on Dugu Bo's face. Sure enough, there is nothing wrong with training along Orochimaru's path.
"You teacher, aren't you doing a good job?" Ice Emperor suddenly jumped out, hugged Cheng Ying's neck and hung him on it: "It not only hits future enemies, but also does not hurt the poor at the bottom, what is there to object to?
.
Don’t you think about it, why do those people who were deceived have nothing? Isn’t it because of greed? If they weren’t greedy and wanted more wealth, how could they be fooled?”
After staying together for so long, Ice Emperor and Cheng Ying have actually intuitively sensed that they have no friends in this world, or in other words, no forces strong enough to be called friends. Both soul masters and soul beasts want to eat them.
, so as long as it can check and balance them, Ice King will support it. This is a typical butt deciding the head.
But for a while, Chengying's disciples couldn't find a reason to refute, and at the same time they also reflected in their hearts on what caused this tragedy. Instinctively, they felt that even if Chengying hadn't intervened, similar things would still happen.
