Chapter 8 40. How many times will it take to behead?

Ouyang Lun slowly walked into the stock exchange surrounded by many people.

Zhu Yuanzhang's family also squeezed in.

As soon as he entered the stock exchange, Zhu Yuanzhang realized that it was so big. In terms of space alone, it was comparable to his Fengtian Palace.

First, the stock exchange announced that it would open today.

Then Ouyang Lun walked to the high platform with a fat businessman with a big belly.

"My Lord County Magistrate, please say a few words!"

"That's right, Lord County Magistrate, please tell us about new stocks or recommend which stocks are worth buying!"

"Please ask the magistrate to speak to you!"

In the exchange, the people chanted and asked the county magistrate Ouyang Lun to speak, with great sincerity and urgency.

This made Zhu Yuanzhang look puzzled in his heart.

Is this Ouyang Lun so popular with the people? "Brother, why are you so looking forward to the county magistrate's speech?"

Zhu Yuanzhang simply asked a passerby beside him.

The passerby rolled his eyes at Zhu Yuanzhang, his eyes full of contempt, "You don't even know this, how dare you come to the stock exchange?"

"This county magistrate is a man of words. As long as the stocks he mentions and recommends to buy, they will definitely rise in the future, and the daily limit is not impossible! That's all money!"

rise? Daily limit? Zhu Yuanzhang became more and more confused.

However, he was very patient now and continued to ask passers-by. After some explanations from passers-by, Zhu Yuanzhang finally understood the rules for buying stocks and what is up, what is down, what is the upper limit, and what is the down limit.

Isn't this just money being mixed in a pile of money? Not working, not producing, not doing business is even more despicable than a businessman!

At this moment, Ouyang Lun stretched out his hands and pressed down, and the entire stock exchange suddenly became quiet. At this moment, even if a pin dropped to the ground, you could hear the sound.

"Thank you all for your love."

"Everyone must already know the reason why I came to the stock exchange today, which is to list Lucky Casino."

"Everyone also knows that this Lucky Casino is the largest casino in Kaiping County. It has been operating very well over the years and is loved by everyone. The successful listing now depends entirely on everyone's support!"

"Anyway, this county is very optimistic about the future development of Lucky Casino. In the future, Lucky Casino will open branches all over the Ming Dynasty. By then, everyone who buys its shares today will be shareholders and bosses!"

Ouyang Lun finished speaking.

Cheers immediately erupted in the exchange.

"Master County Magistrate, I heard that you have also invested in this Lucky Casino? Can you tell me how much stock you hold? How much do you plan to sell?"

"Tell me."

"Sell more of this, otherwise you won't be able to grab it!"

Ouyang Lun said with a smile: "Since everyone asked, I won't hide it. I own [-]% of the Lucky Gambling House and Boss Zhao owns [-]%. This time we plan to put [-]% of the shares on the stock exchange market to sell!" I will contribute [-]%, and Boss Zhao will contribute [-]%, totaling [-]%.”

"Thirty percent. That's a lot!"

"Last time Maotai Liquor went on the market, we only paid out [-]%, but we didn't get it at all."

"The last time Kaiping Iron Industry was listed, it was only [-]%. In the blink of an eye, everything was gone. I could only watch the stock price soar!"

"I have to grab whatever you say this time!"

"Master County Magistrate, you haven't said anything about the price per share of Lucky Casino this time?"

"Yes, that's the most important thing. If the stock price is high, I won't be able to buy it with my money!"

The people asked questions one after another, each one more eager than the other.

Ouyang Lun turned to look at the fat businessman beside him, "Boss Zhao, it's up to you to announce this." "Thank you, Mr. County Magistrate." The fat businessman rubbed his hands and said nervously: "This time, Lucky Casino will issue 30 Ten thousand shares, priced at one hundred cents per share! The minimum purchase price is one hundred shares!"

One hundred cents per share, one hundred shares equals ten thousand cents or ten taels of silver.

30 shares are 3 taels of silver, of which 20 shares were issued by Ouyang Lun, which means that 2 taels of silver will eventually fall into Ouyang Lun's pocket! ! This is not two hundred coins, but 2 taels of silver!

Listening to what the people just said, more than one stock has been listed on this stock exchange in recent years. If ten stocks are listed and each stock earns 2 taels, that is 20 taels! ! The Ming Dynasty's annual tax revenue was only about 1000 million taels, but this Ouyang Lun could make 20 taels, accounting for [-]%, and these are not counting Ouyang Lun's other means of making money!

Zhu Yuanzhang subconsciously touched his waist. If he had a knife at this moment, he would have killed Ouyang Lun, 20 taels! !

"Okay, having said that, let's go on the market quickly! After finishing it, I still have to go and accompany my wife!"

Ouyang Lun was a little impatient.

thump—

In the end, the fat businessman, the owner of Lucky Casino, sounded the gong that heralded the listing.

Ouyang Lun, escorted by a group of policemen, left in an eight-carriage sedan with gongs and drums beating.

Next, people took the money in their hands and rushed to buy the stocks of "Lucky Gambling House".

All 30 shares were sold out in less than half an hour.

"Father, I grabbed ten thousand shares!"

Zhu Di squeezed out from the crowd and came back with a piece of exquisite paper in his hand.

"Let's go back first."

Zhu Yuanzhang looked gloomy and left the stock exchange with his hands behind his back.

After returning to the hotel, Zhu Yuanzhang took the "stock" and studied it carefully. The paper used for this stock was very good, like fine rice paper, and the printing technology was also very good. It had a delicate pattern frame and the words "Hongyun Casino Stock" in the middle. "The following is a detailed record of the purchase of [-] shares, issued by the Kaiping County Stock Exchange, stock number, and seal of the Kaiping County Magistrate. "Father, we are back."

Zhu Biao and Zhu Di came to the suite panting.

"Tell me what information you all found out."

Zhu Yuanzhang asked in a deep voice.

"Father, the stock exchange was established two years ago by the county magistrate Ouyang Lun." Zhu Biao spoke first.

"More than 20 stocks have been listed one after another in the past two years, with an average of one stock being listed every month." Zhu Di added.

"Twenty branches? Each branch is related to Ouyang Lun?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked.

"Because many shops are invested by Ouyang Lun, they hold a relatively large proportion of shares." Zhu Biao nodded.

"Twenty sticks means not 20, but 40!!" Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

Corrupt officials!

A truly corrupt official! The biggest corrupt official since the founding of Ming Dynasty!

Kill!

"Mao Xiang!"

"My subordinate is here." Mao Xiang has been waiting for a long time. The prince-in-law who embezzled 40 taels will definitely not survive.

The two brothers Zhu Biao and Zhu Di looked at each other. They also wanted to plead for Ouyang Lun, but the evidence of corruption of at least 40 yuan was now conclusive, and they didn't know how to plead for mercy.

According to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, anyone who embezzles 90 taels of silver will be stripped.

Some time ago, an old subordinate who had fought with Zhu Yuanzhang for more than ten years committed a corruption case. He embezzled 3000 taels of silver. No matter how many people pleaded for mercy, it was in vain. They were all cut off.
