C2702 A gamble of ?30 million (2/2)
The stock exchange was even more so. Prussia was particularly concerned with military, rail, and steel... The stocks of the industry had already doubled, and the trading prices of the powder board were changing almost every minute.
In an era without computers, stocks were traded by hand and by the counter. This lively scene was unimaginable to the people who would be guarding the computer in the future!
”Damn it! Damn it! I didn't think the French would be able to do it. I wish I had eaten three days earlier... I earned twice as much! ”Dammit …”
The frustrated Investor stomped his feet. He looked at the prices of the government bonds and stocks, regretting so much that his intestines turned green.
No one wanted the Prussian public debt three days ago. That was when the prices were at their lowest, but now, in just three days, the prices had already doubled!
This was not the end. As more funds came in, the price kept increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye!
”I made a mistake, I made a mistake …” I am an idiot, how did I turn all my funds into France's trash? ”Sob, sob, sob …” Investor who had eaten all in one go hugged his head and cried in regret.
The level of accumulation on the financial battlefield was not worse than on the real battlefield. In any case, Xiao Letian's voice could not be heard from the group of people who were worrying about him.
At the moment, the Dutch Amsterdam and Fang Guan were overseeing the stock exchanges. Looking at the telegrams sent from London and the prices offered in the Dutch cities, this weird opera goddess was grinning from ear to ear.
”Haha …” This is what making money is called, it's what making money in war! ”
”Thirty million pounds, ah! I ate thirty million pounds worth of government bonds and stocks for the old master and it doubled in just a few days!”
”The Chinese have a battleship! How many ships can sixty million pounds make? No, no, no... It's still going up, I want to earn 100 million! ”
Xiao Letian would never give up on the opportunity to make money in the war. Back then, he had made numerous gains from the Military Ticket crisis in Jiangnan and set up the Suzhou Stock Exchange.
He was very clear on what was going on inside!
Now that he had thrown himself into the Franco-Prussian War, he was facing a world-class financial war. How could he give up such a great opportunity to earn money?
Before the battle, he had arranged for Fang Guan to stand guard in the Netherlands Amsterdam to carefully purchase low-priced financial products.
This time, Xiao Letian had spent most of the money he had brought out. Including the remaining money from the Pufa Foundation, the amount of money he could use was only around 30 million pounds.
For this financial feast, Xiao Letian had already spent all of the money Zhiyuan Warship used to go back to China to buy coal water. All of his money had been poured into the financial markets!
Don't set your target too high, earn him a hundred million before thinking about anything else!
Furthermore, Xiao Letian was very clear that the final outcome of this war would be very big. The prices of the financial products would also constantly fluctuate, and there would be many opportunities for him to make money back and forth.
The feeling of being rich in war was too wonderful! Too awesome!
