Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 1134, the first stock transaction

The morning of the first day of the Daming stock market was extremely peaceful, because only one stock was subscribed, so the entire morning was spent subscribed to buy stocks, and there was no stock transaction at all.

Four million shares of Beijing-Tianjin Railway stock were also sold out, which made Liu Jin heave a sigh of relief. Originally, he was really worried that there would be no one for this stock, so it was a bit embarrassing.

It took a lot of effort to create a stock exchange and stocks, but if the result is cold at the beginning, it will not be a good thing for the subsequent listing of commercial firms.

Liu Jin had a quick lunch here in Tianjin, and after taking a nap, he and Zhu Houzhao came to the stock exchange to see the stock market situation this afternoon.

Stocks can be bought and sold on the same day. There is no way to say that it must be limited to one day like later generations. You can buy and sell at any time, but there are certain restrictions on the stocks in the hands of major shareholders.

Therefore, after the subscription is completed in the morning, the stock trading can actually be carried out in the morning, but no one listed to sell their own stocks throughout the morning.

In the afternoon, there were more people in the stock trading hall, and the seats in the entire hall were almost full. There were people who bought some stocks in the morning and wanted to see the situation of this stock.

Of course, there are more melon-eating people who come here to join in the fun when they have nothing to do. Everyone is very curious about such a new thing as stocks and wants to see its situation.

"There are a lot of people~"

Liu Jin and Zhu Houzhao wandered casually in the hall, listening to everyone's discussions, and looking forward to the situation of the stock market by the way.

"Old Li, I heard you bought ten shares?"

"Yes, I saw that there were quite a lot of people buying in the morning, so I bought ten shares. Look, this is a stock."

Two middle-aged men were chatting, and one of them, Lao Li, took out a stock from his pocket. It was a ten-share stock, which he bought from the stock exchange for ten taels of silver in the morning.

"Old Li, you are so stupid!"

"Ten taels of silver can buy a cow, so you just traded this piece of paper?"

Lao Zhang said with a bit of heartbreak, and shook his head again and again when his neighbor spent ten taels of silver in exchange for a piece of paper.

"Didn't I say it, where can I get dividends at the end of the year?"

When Lao Zhang said this, Lao Li suddenly thumped, thought for a while and said.

"Dividend?"

"You think too much. This Beijing-Tianjin railway company has just started to be established, and this railway has just begun to be laid. Even if it is done at the fastest speed, it will take at least next year to be paved."

"What will they give you as dividends at the end of the year?"

"Even if it is a dividend, at least after next year, when the railway is completed and the trains start to transport, there will be profits and dividends."

"With your ten taels of silver, you don't even think about gaining a penny in one or two years."

Lao Zhang said while shaking his head.

"Ah~"

"This... well, didn't the newspaper say that this stock can be paid dividends?"

"That's why I bought it for ten taels of silver."

When Lao Li heard this, he immediately panicked. Ten taels of silver is not a small sum, and it is also a large sum for ordinary people.

"The dividends mentioned in the newspaper refer to the fact that after making a profit, it is still in the preparation and construction stage. It is all spent money. Where there is any profit, there will naturally be no dividends."

"You didn't even look at it carefully. After careful research, you just invested ten taels of silver in it?"

Old Zhang seemed a little speechless and said.

"I haven't really figured this out yet."

"I saw that there were quite a lot of people buying stocks in the morning, so I thought about buying ten taels of silver as well. The newspaper said that there will be many benefits after the railway is completed."

"What can I do now, ten taels of silver, if my wife finds out that I bought a piece of paper for ten taels of silver, I will definitely have a fight with me."

Thinking of this, Lao Li became anxious immediately, and the sweat on his forehead couldn't help but burst out.

This made Liu Jin and Zhu Houzhao, who were watching the excitement, couldn't help laughing.

"What else can I do?"

"Of course I sold this stock."

Old Zhang on the side shook his head and said.

"Yes, yes~"

When Lao Li heard this, he seemed to have grasped at straws, and hurried to the window to handle the sale.

So the first stock sale in the history of Ming Dynasty appeared.

Soon, the staff of the exchange posted Lao Li's stock sale information on the stock announcement wall.

Beijing-Tianjin Railway Commercial Bank stock, ten shares, one share priced at one tael of silver.

A piece of paper is pasted on it, simply stating the number of shares sold and the price per share.

Seeing someone selling stocks, all the people in the hall immediately turned their attention. Watching the excitement is not too much, and immediately gathered a large group of people in front of the announcement wall.

"Someone is selling stocks~someone is selling stocks~"

"Ten shares~ one tael of silver per share, buy this morning and sell this afternoon, is it just for fun?"

"Maybe someone regretted it. They felt wronged by exchanging ten taels of silver for a piece of paper, so they wanted to sell the stock and exchange it for silver."

"But I guess no one wants it. I bought the stocks in the morning."

"It should be that no one wants it anymore. You can see that it's been hanging out for a while, but you can tell if no one is still buying it."

On the public notice wall, everyone was talking about it, and felt that this matter was very novel.

It is really novel to buy stocks in the morning and sell them in the afternoon.

However, there were many people watching the excitement, but no one was willing to spend money to buy these ten shares.

This made Lao Li, who sold stocks, anxious like ants on a hot pot.

"Look at it~"

"I just said that no one wants this stock, and only fools are willing to take out their money and exchange it for paper."

Next to Lao Li, Lao Zhang couldn't help pouring cold water on him.

"There are many people watching, but no one buys stocks."

"Your ten taels of silver are in vain."

"Some of the things in the newspaper are trustworthy, and some, you still need to think and think more. The best thing is to listen to the interpretation of the newspaper reader."

"Stocks are something that we ordinary people can't play with. Although it is a business firm opened by His Royal Highness and Mr. Liu, they casually throw in millions of taels of silver, and it doesn't hurt at all, but we throw ten taels of silver into it. There is going to be a lot of trouble in Yinzi's house."

"Ah~"

Following Lao Zhang's words, Lao Li was even more impatient, as if his ten taels of silver had really been wasted, and his whole body seemed to regret it.

"Send someone to buy its shares~"

"In addition, it will be listed for acquisition and listing, and the price for each hundred shares will be 110 taels of silver."

Liu Jin looked at Lao Zhang and Lao Li, then listened to the discussions around him, and after thinking about it, he gave instructions to his subordinates.

The other party went to deal with it immediately after listening.

Soon, the staff of the exchange came again, came to the announcement wall and said: "These ten shares have been traded, and someone bought them for ten taels of silver."

Hearing this news, the people around were immediately shocked.

"Someone really bought this stock~"

"Isn't this nonsense? In the morning, I saw that someone bought [-] shares. That's [-] taels of real gold and silver. What is this mere ten shares? That's ten taels of silver. It's not enough for those who are rich. People have a meal."

"That's right~"

"..."

Here, when Lao Li heard that his stocks were sold, his whole body suddenly seemed to be cloudy and sunny, and he laughed happily. He hurriedly took his voucher to the window to handle it, and soon got twelve taels. silver.

"Haha, sold out, sold out~"

Lao Li couldn't help but laughed happily. He thought that his ten taels of silver had been wasted, but he didn't expect to get back all of a sudden.

"It's good to be back, it's good to be back~"

Old Zhang at the side also breathed a sigh of relief for him.

"So those ten shares belong to him~"

"It's really lucky that someone just happened to buy his stock, otherwise the ten taels of silver would have been in vain."

"Isn't it? There are really some fools who are constantly throwing money into it. There is no shadow of this railway yet, and real gold and silver are constantly being thrown into it."

Beside the two, the melon-eaters who watched the excitement were also discussing constantly.

However, before everyone could recover from the first stock transaction in Daming just now, another staff member of the exchange came to the other side of the publicity wall and said: "Someone wants to buy 110 shares of Beijing-Tianjin Railway stock, and is willing to buy [-] shares every The price for one hundred shares is [-] taels of silver."

"what?"

"This man is a fool."

"I bought this stock in the morning, and he didn't buy it for taels of silver. Now he bought 110 shares for 100 taels of silver."

"This man is really stupid."

"Yeah, you are definitely a fool. Even if you buy stocks, one tael of silver is enough. There is no need to increase the price. The price of one hundred shares has increased by ten taels of silver. Isn't the price of these ten thousand shares increased?" One thousand taels of silver?"

Someone calculated with his fingers and said.

"Is there too much money for this person and no place to spend it?"

"I think it's probably a fool."

Next to the seller’s publicity wall, many people gathered around talking about it. They all thought that the person who bought the stock was a fool. He only bid 1.1 taels to buy stocks this afternoon. He was either a fool or had too much money and no place to spend it. .

"I just sold it, and the price went up~"

Lao Li was dumbfounded. He looked at the money in his hand, and then looked at the information on the announcement wall asking to buy stocks. Then he silently calculated and said, "If I sell it now, wouldn't I be able to earn an extra tael of silver?"

Lao Zhang next to him was also dumbfounded, looking at the information on the announcement wall asking for a purchase, he said, "You can still increase the price?"

"Old Zhang, it's all your fault. You asked me to sell the stocks. In just a few moments, I'm gone for a tael."

"How do I know~"

"You pay me a tael of silver!"

"It doesn't matter to me. I just tell you to sell it. You don't lose money. I want you to pay you a tael of silver."

"..."

Liu Jin has been watching the changes between the two of them, watching the boat of their friendship capsize, and he couldn't help laughing.

This is a bit like stocks. The ups and downs of mood between ups and downs are just the beginning. Compared with the big winds and waves in the stocks of later generations, the current waves are not even waves.

As for Zhu Houzhao who was on the side, he shook his head boredly after witnessing everything in front of him.

　Thinking of my own stock, 555, I am still deeply stuck~
