Chapter 1187: Wealth Can Rival a Country

[End of the God Station] Remind book friends to keep in mind: Website URL: www.xinwanben.com Remember in a second, never lose it!

With money, things in this world will be easier to handle.

The railway has been explored before.

Chang Wei, the chief engineer of Xishan Jianye, took the lead and began to make arrangements.

The craftsmen are all ready-made. In addition to transferring a group of backbones, another group needs to be recruited.

And this railway is centered on the capital and radiates outward.

The site set up also needs to be researched.

The various workshops began to work in shifts, and countless iron ores were transported to the steel workshop, and finally turned into steel, and then became sections of railroad tracks.

Things are much easier than imagined.

The terrain in the Gyeonggi area is all plains, and the difficulty of the project is very low when the railway is laid.

This is much better than the south. The south is full of water networks, lakes, and mountains. At present, there is no technology to build railway bridges.

In order to show the emperor that he attached great importance to the construction of the railway and was worthy of His Majesty's huge investment, Fang Jifan personally led the students of Xishan Engineering College to conduct a survey along the line, which took seven or eight days.

On the other side, the stocks of the railway began to skyrocket.

Because all of this... is much faster than the previous merchants expected.

Everyone thought that the construction of the railway was bound to be an extremely long cycle. Just like the short section of railway between the new city and the old city. It took nearly a year for just a short period of time.

How did they know that this first section of the railway is difficult at the beginning of everything, but now, after passing the railways in the new city and the old city, they have trained an engineering team, technicians, and have ready-made experience. In 20 years, or even 7 or 8 years, the railway that could never be penetrated has begun to develop rapidly.

Laying of the first track has already begun.

The news from the preparatory office is that the mode of construction is now being adopted in stages, which means that maybe one year is enough to go through it.

After a year, it might even be profitable.

The construction of the railway made the sites along the coast suddenly hot.

The land price in the capital is unattainable, and many merchants have begun to set their sights on Baoding and Tongzhou.

There are even rumors that the railway will have a platform directly on the Tongzhou Canal, and a freight terminal will be built on the Tongzhou Canal.

What does this mean.

Now, many people have recalled it.

Tongzhou and Baoding, build a railway, run through the capital, these three points are connected to the canal, and the canal can be transported by water, directly to Shandong, Nanzhili, Jiangnan...

Not only that, through the canal, you can also reach Tianjin Port. This Tianjin Port is a port. Even though Daming does not allow private trade at sea now, how many supplies do you need to buy in Tianjin Port just for the large fleet going to the West? , even... If the sea ban policy will be loosened... then...

This...is undoubtedly a major artery.

Under the influence of The Wealth of Nations, countless people already have a general understanding of economics.

This is a golden road.

This freight alone is enough to make people salivate.

Not only that, the profit of passenger transport will never be too low. The Gyeonggi area is the largest population gathering area in Ming Dynasty. The future population will probably increase. Once the railway is built, it means that Tongzhou And Baoding have almost become the suburbs of the capital, and by then...

Previously... the price of the stock has doubled.

And some retail investors who bought sporadically felt that they had made a lot of money, so they began to release their stocks.

But this release, in the blink of an eye, it was eaten.

And... Next, the stock still skyrocketed.

For the first time, merchants felt overwhelmed when they looked at the yang line in the trading center.

Dare to feel that I have worked so hard to earn this little money, why not buy some stocks, and then lie down and earn the money.

A myth has been born.

Earlier, news spread that Wang Bushi, a scholar in the imperial court, had bought three million shares...

Now, almost all the merchants are crazy and start to count Wang Bushi's wealth.

His stocks are already worth 7.9 million taels of silver.

In less than ten days, he made a net profit of nearly four million taels of silver.

People sighed in admiration, thinking that the world is crazy, and there is such a game in the world.

Perhaps outsiders sneered at Wang Bushi.

But for many merchants, this king who is not an official is simply a god-like existence.

Everyone knows that speculation makes you rich.

But how do you know that this speculation is not as simple as luck.

This not only requires a sufficiently precise vision, you can see the essence of the problem at a glance through countless gossips that are false and true.

But seeing through the essence, it is still light.

In this world, there will never be a shortage of smart people. Whoever doesn't know how to earn money by doing business, who doesn't know that buying a mansion in the first place can make a fortune.

Then... there is one more thing, which is the difference between Wang Bushi and ordinary merchants.

He dared to play and could afford it.

Just when many people are still talking about how this thing can make money.

They just paid three million taels directly, stud directly, without any hesitation, without even thinking about it.

And when everyone hesitated again and again and decided to give it a try, in fact... this huge opportunity had already been missed.

Courage... not everyone has it.

In the trading market, people continue to spread the legend about Wang Bushi.

In the Imperial Academy, it was boiling.

People looked at Wang Bushi in awe, this guy...how much is his net worth now.

Even Shen Wen, a bachelor, began to feel melancholy.

What stocks bring is impetuosity. The legend of getting rich overnight has made countless people start to move their hearts. It's a pity that although some people want to move, they can't get it. In this way, it is inevitable that their hearts will become anxious.

There is no way to pass the day.

Wang Bushi remained calm.

He's like an ordinary, ordinary person.

Still...still drinking tea, on duty, off duty.

The only difference is that he is now on duty. Outside the Imperial Academy, there is a team of carriages waiting for him. Five carriages, twenty-five guards, plus five coachmen, four carriages are empty. The official will randomly choose one of them, so that even if he encounters a villain, the villain will not be able to determine which car he is in.

Take one car, four empty, this...

Wang Bushi braved his waist and got into one of the carriages. The real strength of the five carriages was not only that, the five horses were almost exactly the same, the same shape, the same hair, and the five carriages had almost no The difference... how much money will it cost.

The weather is a bit cold.

Wang Bushi's convoy moved slowly.

And a group of Hanlin people, stomping their feet, breathing white gas, stood tremblingly at the gate of the Hanlin Academy, looking around, their hands folded in their sleeves, sniffing their noses, their eyes staring straight, Staring at the departing convoy.

Everyone is envious, but...

I can only imagine it in my heart.

"Hmph!" Someone in the crowd shook his head, showing pride: "A gentleman is always poor, but a villain is too poor."

It seems that this sentence has given enough spiritual strength to other Hanlins.

Everyone nodded one after another, their waists hunched from the cold, straightened up a little.

Someone pinched his beard, looked at the snow flakes all over the sky, and couldn't help singing: "The north wind blows the snow at the beginning of the fourth generation, Jiarui Tianjiao and..."

"Yeah." Someone said in surprise: "Here, here, the public carriage is here."

The person who read the poem did not have time to finish the poem, so he cheered up immediately, and everyone rushed towards the large carriage.

There is no way.

The Imperial Academy suffers.

They are all clean officials, and they usually don't have much money, and the salary given by the emperor is low.

Although the vast majority of people have relatively well-to-do families, buying a house alone almost wiped out everyone's family fortune. Not to mention, there is still the damn mortgage, which weighs everyone down.

In the past, everyone still wanted to be decent, at least buy a carriage and hire a driver. It can be found that the price of this driver is getting more and more expensive, and the cost of manpower is too scary.

But now, public carriages have become popular, and there are more and more people on duty in public carriages.

If you don't pay the mortgage, you will die without a place to die. At this time, what is needed is elegance and face, and you can do whatever you can to save money, not so much.

Everyone swarmed up, and those who grabbed the seats immediately smiled, stroked their beards, and shook their heads. Those who didn't find a seat were like sardines. Those who were pushed were about to suffocate. He murmured in a low voice, God knows what he was cursing.

…………

"Young Master...Young Master..." Wang Jinyuan hurriedly found Fang Jifan, and said out of breath, "Young Master, that... that Wang Bushi came and said he wanted to pay homage to Young Master."

Of course, Fang Jifan would not have a good impression of Wang Bushi.

Fang Jifan pursed his lips lightly, then glanced at Wang Jinyuan, and snorted coldly: "What is this bastard doing here? Well, let him come."

Five carriages parked steadily at the door of Fang Zhai.

Then, Wang Bushi, wearing an old robe and looking like a thrifty and thrifty poor bureaucrat, strolled into the room.

Seeing Fang Jifan, he smiled and saluted calmly: "Meet Qi Guogong."

Fang Jifan sat, sipped his tea slowly, glanced at Wang Bushi, and said teasingly, "Don't just talk about it, you're coming down."

Wang Bushi: "..."

This greeting is originally a courtesy, he is a scholar of the Imperial Academy, and Fang Jifan's status is not enough for him to actually bow to the ground and salute.

Who knew Fang Jifan was so upright.

Wang Bushi smiled and didn't bow down, but said gently: "I came here to reward Qi Guogong, and I also prepared a generous gift for Qi Guogong."

generous gift...

Fang Jifan looked left and right, up and down, Li, no.
