150,000 taels of silver, just lightly exchanged him for such blank paper?

Emperor Tianqi has never done such a luxurious thing in his life.

At this moment, Emperor Tianqi wanted to tear all the stocks in his hands immediately and then curse.

But... he couldn't bear to bear it.

Even if it was a pile of straw paper for toilets, it was bought for 150,000 taels of silver.

But Zhang Jingyi looked innocent, as if he had done something good: "Your Majesty, you... said you wouldn't be angry."

Emperor Aoki took a breath and lowered his head, where is my knife.

Fortunately, Emperor Aoki still has strong emotional control ability.

Moreover, Zhang Jing made great contributions. At this time... he suddenly used a knife to chop someone up, and it seemed a bit embarrassing.

Only at this time did Zhang Jingyi dare to tell the truth about Emperor Tianqi.

Although he knew that the stock of the Dutch East India Company in history was about to take off, creating the largest increase in human history.

But to be honest, you still need to take certain risks to do this.

After all, he is accompaniment to the king and a tiger. God knows what Emperor Tianqi will do.

But he always firmly believed that this risk was worth taking.

He must let Emperor Apocalypse know the outside world.

Having been sticking to the land, the Ming Dynasty will never have a future.

What's more, the wealth in the ocean is endless. If you miss the great voyage, your descendants can only stay in China.

Emperor Tianqi finally sighed, showed some helplessness, and then said, "You, you..."

Zhang Jing looked at Emperor Tianqi with a bright look and said, "Your Majesty, this thing can make money."

Emperor Tianqi nodded, but said, "How much money can you make for a mere foreigner? I just want you to return the capital to me."

"I... I'm very poor now, so I bought this..." Zhang Jingyi looked pitiful.

In this world, the main trading locations of East India Company's stocks are in the Netherlands and the other is in the East.

The Netherlands is mainly purchased by locals in the Netherlands, and in the East... because there are a large number of employees of the Dutch East India Company, a large number of colonies of the East India Company, and merchants from various countries that cooperate with the East India Company, so on the vast ocean, many merchants hold a large number of East India Company stocks.

After all, the Dutch East India Company's growth in the past few years has been huge, and the profits of dividends have been quite large, which has attracted the interest of many people.

However, this year, the Dutch East India Company encountered many difficulties. Everyone thinks that the Dutch East India Company may be unsustainable. Therefore, many people on the market are selling. In Macau, there are also related trading points where merchants from various countries trade here.

Zhang Jing sent people to buy a large amount of money, and the cost was quite large, and he purchased nearly 300,000 taels of silver.

This is a valuation of 2.8 million Dutch guilds.

At this time, the Dutch guil was a kind of Dutch silver coin, which roughly one shield was equivalent to about 9.5 grams of silver.

In the Ming Dynasty, one tael of silver was about 37 grams, that is, one tael of silver was roughly equal to three Dutch guils.

The 300,000 taels of silver is basically exchanged for stocks of East India Company, which is worth one million rupiah.

As for the situation at that time... the entire Dutch East India Company's main shares were held by the Dutch government and fourteen major shareholders. Of course, they also issued about 6 million rupiahs of stocks circulating worldwide.

This one million rut stock is almost the limit of the acquisition of stocks by Oriental Dutch East India Company.

If it weren't for the risk of a sharp drop in stock prices, it might even become a piece of waste paper, I'm afraid that the merchants and employees who hold stocks would never be willing to sell them.

I heard that after a large-scale acquisition of stocks in Macau at a low price, some people even came to trade from Malacca to quickly sell these stocks and avoid losses.

Japanese merchants also hold a lot of stocks. Because they traded a lot with the Dutch East India Company, many merchants had come into contact with the Dutch East India Company for a long time. When the East India Company was in a good market, Japanese merchants once became the main force in acquisitions.

But with the deterioration of the Japanese and East India Company, and even the various vassals of the Japanese island gradually began to issue bans to eliminate transactions with East India Company, many Japanese merchants were also desperately selling these stocks.

Under this selling craze, Zhang Jingyi was like a buyer, but even so, the stocks acquired by 300,000 taels of silver were actually 60,000 to 70,000 taels of silver were not spent.

There is no way to do this. After all, the value of stocks has plummeted now, and the plate in Dongfang is so big. This has almost acquired all the stocks in retail investors.

However, he was actually very satisfied to acquire such a huge amount of stocks.

Next…is the time to witness miracles.

Of course, the people of the Zhang family are still in Xiangshan and continue to acquire the Zhang family. After all, some merchants are hesitating whether to sell, or some Spanish and Dutch merchants in Luzon and Sumatra may not have received news that someone is willing to acquire the shares of East India Company.

Emperor Aoki was very happy today in Japan, but at this time, all the good moods were thrown away.

So someone brought a box of stocks and returned to the palace in a depressed mood.

He could not understand why he was so stupid no matter what.

At this time, in the eyes of the Supreme Kingdom of the Celestial Empire, whether it was the Dutch or the Portuguese, they were all foreigners. The so-called China's products were abundant and everything was everywhere, and the world's wealth was gathered here.

In other places, there are all a bunch of poor people.

I spent so much money to buy paper from a bunch of poor people.

If it weren't for the trust of Zhang Jingyi, Emperor Tianqi even suspected that Zhang Jingyi had colluded with the Dutch and came to cheat on him for money.

So he was stunned for a long time in the Qinzheng Hall, and Wei Zhongxian, who was still unaware of the inside story, said carefully: "Your Majesty... are you still thinking about Li Yongfang?"

Emperor Tianqi shook his head and said with a faint expression: "I am not thinking about this. I am leaving the matter of Liaodong to the Qianhu Station in Xincheng. I feel relieved. But... I am very worried... Alas, why does Zhang Qing have such a clever person on weekdays..."

As he said that, he shook his head again. Then, as if he had remembered something, he said again: "Send someone to inquire for me. Remember, find out what the company is, what is the Dutch East India Company, and... what is stock."

Wei Zhongxian looked surprised. He didn't understand no matter what. Why did His Majesty suddenly think of asking for such a rare thing?

The more Emperor Tianqi thought about it, the more he felt the more he was. He said coldly: "I have remembered it all for me, you must find out clearly... You can go to Xiangshan County to inquire. Do you know?"

"I know...I know."

Seeing Emperor Tianqi's orders so carefully, Wei Zhongxian dared not be negligent, so he firmly recorded this thing.

In fact, the matters given by Emperor Tianqi were nothing big and small, but he never dared to neglect it, so he planned to send a team of capable people to Xiangshan later. Even if he digs three feet of the ground, he would inquire about all the information.

Emperor Tianqi's expression was slightly relieved at this time, and then he said: "Are there any money for Liao treasury, the treasury and the treasury?"

"Your Majesty, there is really no money." Wei Zhongxian smiled bitterly and said, "But... the last time, there were no more than 150,000 taels of silver, but it was lent to the Zhang family from the Weaving Bureau..."

Emperor Tianqi suddenly showed displeasure: "When someone borrowed some money, how can I ask for it all day long? Is there any other way?"

Emperor Tianqi is not easy to speak about stocks. To be honest, Emperor Tianqi is afraid of spreading it, and he has become a fool of himself from now on.

So... I had to pretend to be generous.

Wei Zhongxian said aggrievedly: "I really have no choice. The treasury still relies on the treasury, and the expenses in the treasury this year are really not small. Your Majesty, you know... It's a turbulent time now, and you need money everywhere..."

Emperor Tianqi said angrily: "The Liao salary is of great importance and you must not be owed any more. You can find a way for me. If there are not hundreds of thousands of taels, it is tens of thousands of taels. You must have it! No matter how poor you are, you must squeeze out some."

Wei Zhongxian had no choice but to say, "I, think of another way."

Where can I think about this method? The court only earns so much, especially the treasury. The thousand tens of thousands of taels of silver a year have almost been collected before it has been collected, so where is it owed money?

Of course, Wei Zhongxian also knew that Emperor Tianqi's life was very difficult. Since he had Liaofu, the palace had to save money and save money. In less than half a year, the treasury spent all the income of a year. Not to mention the Liaofu on credit, it was even tens of thousands of taels... it was not easy to take it out.

It’s strange that there are countless rich people in the world, but the poorest ones are the court. Those who are rich in wealth cannot collect a penny from them. If the mining tax is not yet supported, Wei Zhongxian himself wouldn’t know what to do.

The next day, Emperor Tianqi was still thinking about stocks.

But at this time, Huang Liji and Sun Chengzong came together, and the Minister of War Cui Chengxiu was also present.

"Your Majesty... Not good, something happened."

Emperor Aoki frowned and said, "What's the matter?"

Huang Liji said: "I heard that all the prisoners were released from the Qianhu Station of Xinxian County and let these prisoners go back to Liaodong with the Jiannu envoy."

When Emperor Tianqi heard this, he was shocked and frowned and said, "Are they the Jiannu prisoners who came to the capital?"

"That's right, there are three or four hundred people." Huang Liji said: "When the Ministry of War heard about this, he was shocked... Why did the prisoners who were finally caught have been released again? Therefore... I think this matter is of great importance. Should I recover the people immediately? Your Majesty, please do not let the tiger go back to the mountain."
