Chapter 193

On the ninth day of September, the Double Ninth Festival.

According to the Chinese tradition, on this day, one must ascend a height to worship the ancestors, the higher the better.

On the same day, the stock of Beiyuan Ranch was listed on the Los Angeles Stock Exchange.

Da Si Nong Xun Shuang acted as the spokesperson of the imperial court and rang the bronze bell.

[-] million shares, ten cents per share, ten shares per lot, the same as Western Region bonds.

However, the prospectus also pointed out that in the event of foreign invasion or natural disasters, the stock may fall, or it may go bankrupt due to failure to perform the contract.

In the bankruptcy liquidation, the state-owned Beiyuan Ranch Co., Ltd. will pay as much as it has assets. It does not involve the management's personal property or the state treasury.

There is no imperial endorsement, and you are responsible for your own profits and losses. This is the biggest difference between stocks and bonds.

Even so, major brokerages are still flocking to it.

Who cares if there are 500 million acres of pastures in the north?
Who cares if there is a cow or sheep in the pasture?
This is a financial game, like beating a drum to pass flowers, as long as you are not the last one, then there is no problem.

Anyone who can play finance, who would consider himself a fool?
Therefore, the top ten brokerages subscribed for [-] million shares in advance, and the remaining [-] million shares were purchased by individual customers at the window.

After the market opened, the 200 million taels of silver from the top ten brokerages were directly escorted to the inner warehouse of Changle Palace.

Empress Dowager He, who got the news, looked at Dongfang, then at the ministers, and finally at Liu Bei.

Uncle Huang's methods are really unpredictable!
Today, not only the stock of Beiyuan Ranch was listed, but Uncle Huang also brought a large stack of color renderings of the emperor's new palace.

In the shade of green flowers and rippling clear water, a novel, beautiful and magnificent building is lifelike.

"This... is the emperor's palace?"

Empress Dowager He couldn't believe it, what kind of painting could be so realistic?

"The Empress Dowager, Your Majesty! This is designed and drawn according to the requirements. There are three upper and lower floors, covering a total area of ​​twelve acres. It may be slightly different from the actual palace built, but more than [-]% of it is in line with reality."

"This is the front view rendering, and this is the bird's-eye view. There are also halls, the emperor's residence, the queen's residence, the banquet hall, the prince's baby room, the terrace, the back garden, the kitchen, the bathroom, the washroom, the shoes, hats and clothes room, There are 72 rooms in total.”

The Shaofu fully cooperated in organizing the palace for the emperor's wedding for the royal family, and dozens of painters, master craftsmen and cartographers participated.

To the surprise of painters and cartographers, according to the perspective principle of near big, far small, near real and far virtual, the renderings are more in line with visual experience.

The bright and bright watercolor paints are even more eye-catching.

When they saw the frontal three-dimensional rendering drawn by Zhen Jiang, they were amazed and rushed to imitate it.

These Shaofu elites are all talented, and they can see through a little bit.

As a result, nearly a hundred renderings were completed in a few days, including architectural structure drawings, foundations, materials, and various furniture and equipment, all of which were listed in the directory.

Empress Dowager He invited her son to come forward and browse together. After seeing one picture, she circulated it to all the ministers.

Looking at it, Liu Bian suddenly pointed to a building in the picture and asked, "Uncle Huang, what is the use of this water tower?"

"Store clean water for automatic water intake in Xingong. Just turn on the water valve on the water pipe in the palace, and the clean water will flow out."

"Oh? It's so amazing?"

Empress Dowager He's curious girlish heart broke again.

There is no other way, the dignified King Wu can only teach on the spot and do small experiments by himself.

Take two buckets, one bucket is full of water and put it on a high place, and the other bucket is empty. Drill holes in the bottom of the side of the upper wooden bucket, and the water will automatically leak down.

This kind of trickle, such a trivial truth, not only the little emperor, but even the Queen Mother He is boring.

But then, it's time to show the magic.

A special wooden barrel, filled with water on the spot, covered with a lid, and sealed.

Then insert a one-foot-high bamboo tube into the hole reserved at the top to seal the hole.

Then, let the maid climb up the ladder and water the bamboo tube.

"Crack!" sound.

The sealed bucket was burst by the huge water pressure!

Everyone in the hall was shocked again.

It is unreasonable that a bucket of water can burst a wooden barrel!

Must be a trick!
Liu Bei smiled and said: "This test is not complicated, you can go home and verify it yourself."

In any case, the style, style, function and aesthetics of the emperor's wedding palace are undeniably exquisite.

Liu Bian was very satisfied.

Compared with the old palace, this fast-paced interior layout is more novel, fashionable and lively.

"Uncle Huang, can this palace be completed on time?"

Liu Bei cupped his hands and replied: "If you delay for a day, I will resign and return home!"

Liu Bian was relieved and said, "Uncle Huang speaks seriously, just don't delay!"

At this time, there was an urgent report from Hongling from the north, and they drove straight into the Eastern Capital, leaving behind a series of roars on the streets of Luoyang.

"Great victory in Daijun! Annihilated five thousand enemies, Ke Bineng conferred the title, and Daijun was restored!"

Whoa!
Whoa whoa whoa!
The east is boiling, um, the lungs are hurting!
On the Los Angeles Stock Exchange, the stock price of Beiyuan Ranch suddenly soared.

And Jia Daochang, who lives in the individual seats, is like a god-like figure among the stockholders.

"Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable! Everyone, what did the poor Taoist say? How?"

Because of the connection with Guo Jia, Beiyuan stock will soar repeatedly today.

Therefore, before the market opened, Taoist Jia firmly predicted that Beiyuan stocks would definitely rise sharply.

But unexpectedly, before Guo Jia made a move, the news of Lu Bu's victory just appeared, and the price went up abruptly.

Now, the many small stockholders who gathered around were so overwhelmed by this "stock god" Taoist priest that they were short of paying homage to the god.

When Lü Bu wiped out Ke Bineng's main force, Daijun Wangfeng surrendered, and the news that Shanggu was about to recover, spread to the court, which caused another wave of praise.

All the bosses understand that Beiyuan Ranch's stock must have gone crazy when it encountered such good news on the day it was listed!

Seeing the stocks so profitable and seeing her son's new palace, Empress Dowager He couldn't help itching again.

But she couldn't save face, so she gave Zhao Zhong a wink.

Zhao Zhong is a shrewd person, he guessed what the Queen Mother was thinking in two clicks, and quickly figured out the reason.

While no one was paying attention, he slipped to the side of the little emperor and whispered something.

After hearing this, Liu Bian felt that it made sense. Of these two major events, one was related to his own reputation, and the other was something every emperor should do.

"Hey, uncle, the great man ruled the world with filial piety, and the empress dowager and the queen mother still live in the dilapidated palace. I really have no face to enjoy it alone."

Liu Bei didn't refuse. Anyway, there are a group of experts, and it's easy to do it.

Liu Bian went on to say: "Since I took the throne, due to the emptiness of the national treasury, the mountain mausoleum has not been moved until now. I wonder if the emperor can share my worries?"

Oh, I see, isn't this just asking for money!
Liu Bei responded immediately: "I will present the renderings of the Empress Dowager and the new palace of the Empress Dowager for your viewing in seven days. As for the mountain mausoleum... If the treasury really has no money, I propose to issue shares in Nanyang Manor and raise another 500 million yuan next month." two."

The emperor opened his mouth, and it was filial piety, and it was a mountain mausoleum. The civil and military leaders are not stupid, and they passed the vote unanimously.

After days of investigation and interrogation by Cui Lie, the truth about the case of exterminating the three families and the case of the hanging corpse at the gate of the general's mansion was finally revealed.

Some people even turned their eyes to the instigator of Jinyiwei, and even secretly rejoiced that this local turtle might be doomed.

But the real boss has already seen through the mystery.

As a secret organization, Jinyiwei has been strictly managed, and has been hiding it very low-key recently. It is difficult for Cui Lie to obtain conclusive evidence.

Therefore, Liu Bei will definitely be fine.

When Cui Lie revealed the murderer behind the scenes, everyone was unexpected, but it was reasonable.
