Chapter 822
When Ye Hua returned to Beijing, he only talked about his views on the situation with a few old men who stepped down, but he did not target anyone... But that's all, all the big and small people in Kaifeng City could not stand it.
This is prestige!
Invisible or touched!
But everywhere!
After a brief silence, Lu Duan said: "Either overseas or local, they are all Han people. It is indeed inappropriate to suddenly increase tariffs. I personally support the veto of the tax increase bill!" Lu Duan said carefully that he is a person who is not confused about major issues and is not as easy to take the bait.
Wei Xianmei was not angry either. He chuckled and said, "Mr. Lu said so, I will think that the West Court is willing to join forces... Lord. Lu, don't break your trust!"
After saying that, Wei Xianmei laughed to the sky and took a step away, making Lu Duan very embarrassed. He didn't even have a chance to deny it!
"This little husband Wei is really domineering!"
Lu Duan secretly thought that with Ye Hua in charge, the courage of the people below came back, but the financial market made such a big mistake again, and he couldn't resist it. It seemed that he could only go with the flow.
But we can't watch Kou Zhun fall. If Kou Zhun is finished and Ye Hua's team of men will gain power again, they will be the ones who will be unlucky below.
Thinking of this, Lu Duan immediately wrote a book and asked someone to hand it to Kou Zhun.
After receiving the letter from Lu Duan, Kou Zhun was so angry that he rolled it into a ball and threw it into the stove and burned it!
"Ph! What's the matter!"
Kou Zhun angrily cursed, "When is it that I still want to please both sides? Do you think you are the only one who is smart in the world? Others are fools? What do you think!"
Kou Zhun pondered for a while and immediately asked someone to prepare a car. He wanted to go to Ye's mansion to pay homage to his mentor!
Due to the opposition in political views, many people regard Kou Zhun and Ye Hua as their opponents, and almost forgot their teacher-student identities!
At this moment, Kou Zhun came to pay homage to the teacher, which was really an amazing trick!
Don’t think you can pull the banner of Champion Hou and scare me!
I am also Ye Hua’s disciple, so I am not inferior to you!
Kou Zhun carefully prepared eight gifts and drove straight to Ye's mansion. He did not deliberately conceal his whereabouts. On the contrary, he wanted to beat drums and drums and let everyone know!
What's rare is that the gate of Ye's mansion was not in charge. The guards of the door received Kou Zhun's famous post and invited him in directly, just like many years ago.
This was the first time Kou Zhun had set foot in the Ye Mansion after Ye Hua left Beijing. Everything was still the same. Even his teacher Ye Hua was similar to before. He was wearing a clean moon-white robe, holding a kettle in his hand, and taking care of flowers and plants.
The robe looks old. After washing it many times, it has faded, but it is still reluctant to throw it away.
Hearing Kou Zhun's footsteps, Ye Hua looked up and smiled slightly at him.
"I've been waiting for you for several days, come and sit down!"
Ye Hua came to the stone table under the grape trellis and sat down first.
Kou Zhun hurriedly bowed and did not dare to neglect at all.
"Disciple, please pay homage to Master!"
"No need to be polite, go!"
Kou Zhun agreed and sat down quickly. His eyes swept over Ye Hua's robe and suddenly remembered something, "Master, is this what my disciple gave to Master back then? I'm afraid it's been ten years?"
Ye Hua nodded, "Nine years and eight months ago, you gave me two pairs of good cotton cloth, made two robes and a cloak, which I have been wearing on my body." Ye Hua chuckled at Kou Zhun, "It's better to be as good as a newcomer than a new one, but I always feel that old clothes are better than new clothes. The human touch here is incomparable!"
Listening to the teacher's words, Kou Zhun's eyes turned red in an instant.
He stood up, bowed repeatedly, and was so excited that he was at a loss. Ye Hua said this, saying that he did not treat him as an outsider. Kou Zhun did not think that Ye Hua was lying to him. In fact, as a teacher, he was no longer willing to lie!
"Only when Master is supported and used, I have disciples today. The teacher’s kindness is as good as the sky, and my disciples are engraved with hearts, and I am so grateful!" To maintain the relationship between master and disciple is the most important thing at the moment for Kou Zhun.
When he sat down again, Kou Zhun couldn't wait to say: "Master, I read the newspaper introduction and thought that the teacher's opinion was to the point, which was the best way to solve the current dilemma of the Great Zhou Dynasty. The disciple came to ask for advice in the hope of getting guidance from his mentor. How should I resolve the current crisis in front of me?"
Ye Hua did not rush to speak, but poured a cup of tea for Kou Zhun, filled his tea cup, and then chuckled: "The most difficult thing in the world is not fantasy, but cliché! Just like a chef, abalone that is ready to be made is not a skill, and stewed with carrots and cabbage, is a master. This is called listening to thunder in silence. Ping Zhong, do you agree?"
Kou Zhun pressed his knees with both hands and leaned forward. He listened very carefully and seriously, as if he was a primary school student. After Ye Hua finished speaking, he hurriedly said, "Master hit the nail on the head, and the disciple deeply agreed, but..."
"It's easy to know, but hard to do, right?" Ye Hua asked with a smile.
"That's right!" Kou Zhun said sincerely: "Compared to making money with sweat, people prefer to make money with money. The financial market is inflated, and disciples are helpless if they are willing to restrain themselves."
"Yeah!" Ye Hua nodded to express his understanding.
"People always make progress in suffering and setbacks. The lessons learned in this stock market collapse are profound. If we can take the opportunity to correct our mistakes and return to the right track, it would be better."
Kou Zhun did not hesitate, "Master, the disciple will immediately return to normal tariff levels and stop the trade war!" Kou Zhun played a trick. He only said to restore tariffs and stop the trade war, but did not say to correct the mistakes and change the course. To be honest, Kou Zhun has not yet figured out what to do.
Even Ye Hua only has a general understanding of how to move from an agricultural country to an industrial country. As for how to industrialize the financial empire, it is almost as difficult as letting the son of the richest man go to the fields to be a farmer, or letting women in the dust become good... There are few successful examples to refer to.
Ye Hua did not force Kou Zhun to express his opinion because he knew very well that simply stopping the trade war would not restore the stock market to normal... On the contrary, at this juncture, any wrong actions will only aggravate the panic.
Ye Hua was right about it. When the six elders made a sound, the stock market stopped falling for a while... People believe that the court will come up with new strategies, change the course, and completely solve the problem.
But after waiting for a while, people were disappointed only after the tariffs were restored!
In this regard, the Empire Times gave an incisive analysis... The increase in tariffs is not the reason for the stock market plummeting. On the contrary, it is because of the stock market plummeting that it tries to raise tariffs, protect local factories, and thus maintain the stock market trend. From the actions of the cabinet, we can draw such a conclusion: local industries have lagged behind overseas territory!
That's right!
The world we are proud of has lost its factory, and our products are no longer the most competitive. We must rely on raising tariffs to protect ourselves!
Obviously, engaging in a trade war and playing tariff blockade is the behavior of the weak!
The cabinet ministers inadvertently revealed a huge secret!
The Great Zhou is behind!
All readers and friends, are you so scary? The Great Zhou once had the most developed manufacturing industry. We built the first steam engine, the first steamship, the railway, countless solid cities, and countless industrial miracles.
But in the past decade, we have sadly discovered that there are fewer and fewer factories around us, either closing down or moving overseas. Young people either go to India, work in the Americas, get married and start a business, or go to the financial city of Kaifeng, and indulge in short selling and cannot extricate themselves!
Setting up tariff barriers is a manifestation of the weak, and now they are being abandoned in a hurry, which proves that we cannot even protect ourselves! This is the most terrifying thing at the moment!
...
The newspaper ruthlessly revealed the situation of the Great Zhou, which was shocking and chilling.
The virtual economy represented by finance has expanded too much and has completely squeezed out other social resources.
Anyone who is familiar with history knows that the tulip crisis in the Netherlands... It is also the era of the great navigation, the formation of global markets, the rapid accumulation of capital, and speculation is prevalent!
A charming tulip ruined the glory of the monk coachman!
At that time, a variety of precious tulip bulbs could be replaced with a villa, and even the workers in the shipyard stopped to change to plant tulips.
Until one day, the agent suddenly lowered the tulips offer.
There was one person like this, and then more people joined, and they hated that they caused a plunge in a short period of time! People used their passion to sell tulips, and the subsequent collapse was the big collapse.
The tulip crisis severely hit the Dutch industry, and even made this once-prosperous overlord completely silent!
The situation in the Great Zhou Dynasty was better than that in the Netherlands, but it was not much better.
The tea crisis is also the fuse that triggered the entire financial crisis.
The prevalent speculative trend has made the industry in the Great Zhou Dynasty difficult. Because the cost of new factories is too high, no one is willing to invest, they would rather invest money in the stock market; the machines of old factories are not replaced, their efficiency is inefficient and their competitiveness is severely declined.
Perhaps many people would not believe that steam engines are commonly used in factories in Dazhou, and they are still a product for twenty years!
But the latest factories in Tianzhu and other places use more stable internal combustion engines!
In a word, it’s impossible not to change!
Kou Zhun held an emergency cabinet meeting to discuss countermeasures.
At the same time, several veterans gathered in the Ye Mansion, also discussing the strategy... Just as they were discussing it enthusiastically, someone suddenly sent an urgent report.
After Ye Hua unfolded, his brows frowned!
It turned out that the old Kaifeng Bank was in crisis... According to the above, Kaifeng Bank once bet on tea futures, but because of the collapse of the futures, Kaifeng Bank suffered heavy losses.
The subsequent tariff increase caused another investment of Kaifeng Bank, maritime transportation, to suffer huge losses.
Together, the hole in Kaifeng Bank reached an appalling 150 million silver dollars!
During this crisis, the first domino fell, and it was a very large one!
The third largest bank in the world!
Ye Hua silently handed the emergency report to others. After everyone finished reading it, everyone's brows turned into big bumps.
Li Si smiled bitterly, "Oh, I still deposited a thousand yuan in private money in Kaifeng Bank!"
It’s rare that Li Si actually got private money!
Ye Hua chuckled and said, "Senior Brother, can you seem to have kept Kaifeng Bank?"
Li Si suddenly laughed and scolded: "Ball! How can I wake up the world if I don't fall a few banks? In contrast, my little private money is not worth mentioning!"
Chapter completed!
