C1381 Bug Lius ability (1/2)

The big brothers of these gangs might turn into ghosts by day and night. If they were happy, they would be amiable to you and even bestow you with two pieces of money. If they were unhappy, they could just directly kill you, let alone steal some money from you.

When the news of Belait burning millions of grains was spread to Jiangnan, in those three days, all of the southern tickets completely collapsed, and all the banks were filled with scrap paper that had been abandoned by the people.

Those few days were the day that Bug Liu reaped a huge harvest, and the first few times, it was not that he could understand anything, or perhaps he had sensed something, but he felt that it was a pity to throw away so many pieces of paper, even if it was just a wall of dust.

The paper used for the south ticket was very particular. The long wool cotton imported from India and the clean wool were mixed with pulp according to a special ratio. Thus, the paper used for the south ticket was even stronger than cloth.

It was only because people had been too excited over the past few days that people had discarded so many high-quality notes as waste paper. However, due to the Chinese habit of cherishing things, it hadn't even been a day before the destitute people went to pick up the paper money and prepared to paste it into the walls and windows.

However, the one who did it first was Bug Liu, he had acted even earlier than the outer members of CIA. Bug Liu spent the whole night collecting the southern tickets, specifically picking up the big amounts of money, which was not because he was greedy, but because he felt that the large amounts of money would be more useful.

This kind of large denomination banknotes were usually used for business transactions between merchants. Ordinary people would not have the chance to see this, but in the midst of the uncontrolled storm, this kind of large denomination banknotes were discarded in large amounts, resulting in Bug Liu being the early riser in the end.

If the first day of collecting banknotes was Bug Liu's unintentional act, then on the second day, he realised that a group of mysterious people were quietly entering the competition. Not only were they collecting banknotes with him, there were even trash collecting attempts to collect banknotes.

This strange phenomenon immediately caused Bug Liu to smell something different. Comprehension was a type of Inherent Skill, there were naturally some people who were good at observing the changes in the things around them and were willing to think about it.

Bug Liu was able to confirm that some important figures were entering the stage based on just his intuition. The danger in this Southern Trip was definitely not that simple, and when he thought back to the various bizarre legends surrounding Xiao Letian, he could faintly sense the true identity of the culprit behind this.

From that day onwards, Bug Liu realized that there was definitely a huge conspiracy behind these bills. The truth was definitely not like what it looked like on the surface, he started to sort and sort these bills by categories, going through the details of their denomination and tied them up with oilcloth, bundles after bundles, and stuffed them into a gunny sack inside his shack. He used it as a mattress and used it as a pillow.

The crisis in Jiangnan was just too great. At the beginning, when the Belait was in a tragic situation and the Sha and Russia Expeditionary forces were exaggerated, they all became explosives that caused the Jiangnan merchants to lose their confidence. During the first and most severe credit collapse, at least one billion of the southern tickets were discarded like paper.

From Shanghai all the way up the Yangtze River, all of the important business towns were baptized by the storm. As the rich and powerful town of Jiangnan, Suzhou had to suffer from the storm as well, because in just three days, at least 200 million south tickets were abandoned. It was at that time that Bug Liu's first pot of gold was taken away for free.

After three days of collapse, Xiao Letian's silver coins began to circulate, causing the crowd's emotions to be slightly stable, the scattered merchants who used silver coins to purchase notes started to appear in the market, following that, a few gamblers took a fancy to the changing price of silver coins for one day, and very quickly an opponent appeared on the market.

Buy short and sell short. Buy as much as you can … The earliest financial products in China were gradually revealed in the hands of these gamblers.
