Vol 2 Chapter 1572: catastrophe
Chapter 1572 Catastrophe is imminent
Xishan Academy is crazy.
The entire capital shook.
In Xishan Academy, for all scholars, no one is more important than Fang Jifan.
Even though Fang Jifan seldom manages the affairs of Xishan Academy, Fang Jifan has been regarded as a spiritual totem for this academy that has grown from scratch and eventually thrived.
It is their teacher, their teacher, and their ancestor who are planning to assassinate.
Killing Fang Jifan, why not kill their hearts.
Obviously, the professors could no longer control the situation. In other words, the professors and doctors who taught the lectures were all carefully selected. They were dragons and phoenixes, the essence of new learning. Throwing the teaching aids and books, he shouted: "Assassinating my teacher today is like stabbing my parents. The revenge of killing my father is irreconcilable. If you can sit here today and read quietly, like this, you will be as good as the beasts." What's the difference? If you don't avenge this, you will be unbearable. Today, my teacher died by abolishing stereotyped writing. The emperor has ordered to abolish stereotyped writing. That old schoolman, who is like a dog, hates my teacher deeply. This is how we are today. These thieves are in Beijing, just outside Beijing, all over the world, are they deceiving me that there is no one in Xishan Academy?"
The students blew up, and raised wrenches and other strange things one after another, shouting loudly over the rubble: "Kill the thief."
"Rather Stick to your guns!"
"Fight!"
…
Exchange…
When the news comes.
Wang Bushi looked at the tearful Deng Jian, took off his sunglasses and fell silent.
Next...he witnessed the craziest sell-off since the stock exchange opened.
The Prophet of Spring Duck.
Duke Qi was assassinated and died!
Duke Qi...
Duke Qi is a symbol to all those who do business.
Because of Qi Guogong, there is Xishan Coal Industry, Xishan Jianye, Xishan Pharmaceutical, Xishan Iron and Steel, and countless key industries have risen along the trend, driving the prosperity of the entire business.
Some merchants even joked that if they want to know whether the market is booming, they just need to stare at Duke Qi.
This is by no means a joke, the fact is that Qi Guogong and Baiye are closely related.
For merchants, the imperial court has suppressed merchants for a hundred and fifty years. For a hundred and fifty years, merchants are like pariahs. Not to mention talking and laughing here, even when they go out, they have to keep their tails between their legs, lest they cause trouble.
Since Qi Guogong was born, the situation began to improve.
Duke Qi is like a weathervane.
Now being stabbed suddenly, obviously...he wants the world to return to its original track.
It's just... back to the original track, do you still have a place to stay?
There is no place to stay, and the so-called confidence is gone at this moment.
So...
Merchants are crazy.
Crazy sell off...
Dump everything that can be sold.
At this moment... nothing is more reassuring than real money.
So... the bank began to run wildly.
All assets are being sold off.
Wang Bushi witnessed with his own eyes that his heart is complicated.
This new world, where the tall buildings rise from the ground, is collapsing so quickly at this moment.
Almost all the stocks, no one cares about them in an instant.
No matter how promising it was.
No matter how profitable it was.
No one cares about these anymore. It doesn’t matter how profitable they are. They just want to exchange them for real gold and silver. These gold and silver should be quickly hidden in their own cellar for the winter.
This sudden plunge made those who reacted a little slower feel like crying.
Soon, the originally valuable stocks became waste paper in an instant.
It's over, it's all over.
Wang Bushi sighed, and he touched Deng Jian's head.
Although Deng Jian is cheating, but... after being cheated by him for a long time, he actually developed feelings.
He said loudly, "Don't cry."
"My young master...my young master...he...he..." Deng Jian burst into tears, sobbing so hard that he could barely speak.
"Come on, it's all over."
Deng Jian looked at the stocks and contracts that were torn apart and flew all over the sky, and couldn't help saying: "The stocks in the house are not for sale... are they not for sale?"
Wang Bushi actually smiled.
And there is no more expression on the back: "Everything is over, this is just a floating bubble, now... it seems to have returned to the world, and now it is meaningless to think about selling it. When this The day is here, these are just a piece of waste paper, old man... just treat it as a dream, wake up from this dream, as usual, the world is still the same world, and the world is also the world, let's go, it's over, old man I'm ready to say goodbye, I've saved some money, it's time to go back to my hometown, you...will you go with me?"
Deng Jian shook his head violently: "I was born as the young master's man, and I will die as the young master's ghost. I want to find the young master, maybe... go to the Golden Continent..."
Wang Bushi sighed, this is really... an unfamiliar white-eyed wolf.
But... whatever...
…
"The Duke of Qi is dead!"
Near the Confucian Temple, it is a place where a group of scholars live.
The message has arrived.
The scholars studying hard in the cold window suddenly showed relief.
Sure enough... God has eyes.
Zhou Juren and Chen Juren were the happiest. They were friends. Zhou Juren heard the news first, excitedly picked up the wine, and found his good friend.
After Chen Juren heard the news, he wept with joy, danced and said, "This... this is God has eyes, it is my sacred teaching, this thief is a wolf, and the country is also a thief. Today, punish this thief, you and me Here's to luck."
Before hearing that stereotyped writing was going to be abolished, the two masters were worried. Without stereotyped writing, their lives would be meaningless.
They have learned stereotyped writing all their lives.
Can now...
The two almost embraced each other and wept.
"Come on, Brother Chen, let me explain it to you."
"Okay, I'll make it clear."
Chen Juren ordered the book boy in the mansion to take the wine cup, opened a vase of flower carvings brought by Zhou Juren, filled it up, and the two of them drank it all in one gulp, their faces glowing red.
Zhou Juren was so excited that his ears turned red: "Brother Chen, since this dog has been punished, the whole world celebrates it. Without this thief by His Majesty's side, it is a chance meeting between you and me. When we will be named on the gold list in the future and show our grand plans, no wonder, I had a dream last night..."
"Oh, I don't know what dream?"
"I dreamed... dreamed..."
…
Outside, someone knocked on the door frantically: "Brother Chen...Brother Chen..."
A scholar stumbled in, his face as pale as paper.
The two Juren were stunned when they saw him.
Zhou Juren cheered up: "It turned out to be Liu Xiandi, but Liu Xiandi also came to visit, is it because of..."
It's just that I haven't finished talking...
"The imperial court abolished the imperial examination."
The two Juren heard this, and suddenly... their heads exploded.
Liu Xiucai didn't care about the reaction of the two, and said one after another: "Not only that, but also abolished the fame of all scholars, and ordered the academic officials in various places to delete the list of students. From now on, there will be no more candidates, no more scholars..."
As he spoke, Liu Xiucai covered his face, showing a look of extreme pain.
The news was like a bolt from the blue, and Zhou Juren was so frightened that he was out of his wits, and his face was miserable: "This... How is this possible, how is this possible! Your Majesty... Your Majesty is going to risk the disgrace of the world. This is not true, it is definitely not true... Your Majesty Aren't you afraid that we scholars..."
Liu Xiucai said sadly: "No, now... what should be afraid of is us..."
"what?"
"Don't you know?" Liu Xiucai shuddered, looked at Zhou Juren and said, "Now the whole street hates this scholarly scholar. Don't you know? The stock price has collapsed ...In less than half an hour, almost all the stocks plummeted...There are many people, all their possessions have been wiped out in the blink of an eye, and some people have started to set fire to the scholar's house. Zhou Daru in the south of the city, I don't know Do you recognize him? His mansion caught fire and killed several people."
"There are still people who want to go to the Tixue Yamen to **** the list of students, saying that all of us scholars with fame should be damned. They want to take the list before the imperial court destroys the list... one by one...to take revenge...to avenge the Duke of Qi avenge!"
Chen Juren also shivered in shock: "What did you say, what did you say..."
His eyes were red, and he pulled Liu Xiucai's skirt, baring his teeth and saying: "The stock price has plummeted? I... I... Brother Yu..."
His face showed unspeakable horror.
I don't care at all about the arson outside.
He suddenly wailed: "The Cosmopolitan Commercial Bank I bought...it also plummeted...also plummeted?"
"It's fallen... It's all fallen..." Liu Xiucai burst into tears: "It's not just the stock price, this mansion has been broken up to now. Pity the house I just bought with a loan. I paid the down payment of real money , now this house is not worth the money to borrow..."
Zhou Juren suddenly felt dizzy.
Because...he also bought property in Beijing.
Fame is gone.
The family fortune is gone.
nothing left.
Zhou Juren suddenly slumped on the ground, and he muttered: "So...so..."
"I'm here to remind the two brothers that you must not go out these days. You must stay at home, the door is closed, and it is important to avoid disasters. Also...you must be careful of fire and candles at home. Now...the capital is in chaos. A big pot of porridge is going to happen."
Zhou Juren and Chen Juren were no longer in the mood to listen to these anymore.
Do you avoid disaster...
But now, isn’t it a catastrophe?
Life savings, hard-earned fame...now...all are gone.
"Who...who assassinated the Duke of Qi..." Chen Juren burst into tears: "Duke Qi is a minister of the current dynasty, and he is the son-in-law of the current emperor. They...are so bold that they have reached this point..."
