C1386 Crazy banknotes (2/2)
This kind of scene happened in succession in dozens of Gambling throughout Shanghai. The price of the paper money plummeted to the freezing point, causing the public's mood to immediately collapse.
Looking at the price that fluctuated every minute, you don't have to complain, you don't have to trade if you have the ability! Right now, all the banks and tickets in the entire city, even the big merchants wouldn't dare to guard the door for business. As long as you opened the door, there would be ghost like people who would come looking for you to exchange for silver coins.
At first, there were some kind-hearted fishermen trying to save them, but the people who committed suicide later on had already become dumplings, and the river was filled with floating corpses.
On this day of despair, there were still countless hoodlums, thugs, Bao Dating and others who were constantly spreading terrifying auras. They were spreading rumours throughout the city, pushing the atmosphere of fear to the extreme.
In the end, even the yamen runners and soldiers who maintained public order joined the crowd. They searched through the last few bills in the house and also squeezed into the crowd, wanting to gamble on the last hope.
Just as the sky collapsed and the earth caved in, countless newspaper boys' shouts came from the street. Citibank, Standard Chartered Bank, France Bank... It's open for business! ”
”The foreign bank has exchanged notes with the big guys! A 1: 750 ratio! ”Go, go!”
At that moment, the terrified citizens of Shanghai felt as if they could see the holy light being scattered all over their bodies. An involuntary sense of happiness filled their hearts.
The price of the Gambling had reached one to eight hundred, and at that time, the foreigners had reached one to seven hundred and five, so the foreigners were the saviors of the world!
”Hurry up and go, it'll be too late to exchange …” Screaming crowds ran toward the tenants, and by then all the gates were open, and British and French soldiers had removed sandbags and railings, ignoring the influx of people from the Qing.
Dozens of Gambling's Big Brother Dragon Head immediately became anxious, ”F * * k, you dare to fight with us for meat!? Bastard, change it for me... Change to 1: 700... Tell all of our underlings, Bao Dating and the delinquent, to go on the streets and shout for me! ”
This time, the street was bustling with activity. The young newsboys had yet to finish their words when countless local thugs shouted, ”It's a ratio of one to seven hundred!” Big guy, hurry up and go back to exchange … ”One to seven hundred!”
Hualala, the crowd on the street rushed back again. There were actually a few old grannies running like the wind, and they were actually more than a few young ones.
Heng Liwen was the leader in the battle. When he saw the crowd rush into the bank's lobby, he laughed twice and heard the howls from the street.
”Damned Chinese, you dare to steal my chips?” This meat is all mine, all the paper money on the beach is mine! Pass my order, change to the price of 680! ”
Not long later, all the newsboys on the streets started shouting again, ”1: 680!” The foreign banks had changed their prices again! Quickly go and exchange! ”
With a ”hua la” sound, the citizens started to rush into the foreign bank again. At this time, Gambling's Dragon Head gritted her teeth and stomped her feet, ”Change it to 650 for me …” ”A silver coin for six hundred and fifty notes!”
”I swear on my dignity as the British Empire that I will defeat you thugs … Pass down my orders, Heng Liwen, change the punishment to one versus six hundred two … ”
”All men of the martial arts world, stand up for me. Don't piss your pants in front of the foreign devil. Isn't it? This daddy will fight to the end for you! ”
