Now that Nathan Rothschild has assumed the posture of Chang Gong in September 18th, the following things are of course simple, basically everyone arranges how to cheat people together. The two people quickly reached an agreement on various operations, and Jerome was stunned by the set of show operations.

The two parties quickly reached an agreement on the basic operations, and then agreed on a rough hands-on time. Nathan Rothschild and Mr. Bowen left the small living room and went back to the back garden to continue with the others. The guests were chatting and laughing.

"Look, this is Rothschild." Watching Rothschild chatting and laughing with others as if nothing happened, Beauvain said to Jerome, "Calm and rational not like humans. What a terrible guy. ."

"Really?" Jerome said, "I think he can easily give in."

"No," Bowang said, "he just knows when and what he can do. This is the most terrifying thing. If there is not your brother behind me, not the whole of France, I may not be able to match him."

"Mr. Beauvain, you are rarely so humble." Jerome laughed.

"That's because there are very few people worthy of humility." Bowang replied.

After the meeting was over, Rothschild returned home and immediately began arranging related matters. He first visited Metternich, when Metternich was preparing to pack up and return to Vienna. Because of his outstanding performance as an ambassador in France over the years, Metternich should have been promoted long ago. It was just that Austria was worried that his successor might not have taken Metternich's class, and also that Metternich was somewhat reluctant to be the ambassador to France. Because this position can bring him a lot of wealth. Compared with the foreign water that can be obtained in Paris, the salary that Austria gave him is really not enough for Mrs. Metternich to buy a bag.

But such a lack of fatness, in Austria, who is not jealous? Even His Majesty Franz was a little jealous. Of course, the other people also surrounded His Majesty Franz, telling him that Metternich was a talent of Zaifu, and that it would be too much for him to be a small ambassador. It will also make people mistakenly believe that we in Austria do not know how to use people. Therefore, I hope that His Majesty will recall Ambassador Metternich as soon as possible and entrust him with the important task...

As for Metternich, although he is reluctant to bear the money, he also knows that if he continues to occupy this position, what will really happen at that time, it is really possible. So I had to aggrievedly accept the domestic arrangements and prepare to return to China to serve as Minister of Foreign Affairs first, and his Majesty also told him privately that he would definitely be the Prime Minister of the Empire in the future.

Only Metternich was relieved, but something went wrong again in Vienna. Because several aristocrats with considerable backgrounds are fighting for this fatness, so that for a while, no new ambassador can be selected. However, before the end of this month, the new ambassador must be coming.

Hearing that Rothschild was visiting, Metternich received Rothschild in his reception room. Rothschild didn't greet much, and bluntly told Metternich about the possible collapse of the railway stocks. Then he said to Metternich: "The collapse of railway stocks is inevitable, but this is not necessarily a bad thing. As long as we make arrangements in advance, we can also use it to make a lot of money. Well, Mr. Bowen said, big A depression is not necessarily a bad thing. Only in the Great Depression, those truly valuable stocks will return to their real owners. (This sentence was said by the American billionaire Morgan Jr.

But Metternich has more things to consider than Rothschild. Rothschild does not worry about the pot being buckled on the head of the Jews, but Metternich needs to consider whether the pot will fall on Austria. Because he knew that if this matter turned into a major recession, it would very likely trigger a war. And no one wants to be the target of the French military machine.

"We have to take a step slower, at least after the Bank of Rome takes action before we can officially act." Metternich said.

"In this case, the money that can be made is much less." Rothschild said, "When the Bank of Rome ends, with their appetite, there is not much cheap to give us."

"Nathan, we are different from you. We must have more political considerations." Metternich said, "It's really a chaotic era. You have to know that a small dust of the era falls on everyone. Even if it falls on the head of a country like Austria, it is a big mountain. We can't help but be cautious. However, the part of my personal wealth that you helped me represent can be left to you."

So Rothschild left.

A few days later, as soon as the Paris stock market opened, news came that the "Titan Railway Company" was preparing to lower the freight rate. Immediately afterwards, some people began to sell a large number of railway stocks, and the price of railway stocks began to fluctuate. However, in the afternoon, railroad stocks began to rise again, and by the time the market closed, although they fell slightly, they fell not so much.

But just after the market closed, new rumors appeared: because some banks began to tighten loans to railway companies, for example, Rothschild Bank sold the debts of railway companies in its hands a few days ago, and it has no longer Loans are then provided to railway companies, so more railway companies have to lower their freight rates in order to gain a larger market share.

The next day, before the opening of the market, "Kommersant" published another article. This article pointed out that there are systemic risks in railway stocks. This article also pointed out that some railway companies, adopting vicious competition methods such as price wars, will further cause the overall market to shrink.

The impact of this article was immediately apparent after the opening of the market. Although the bulls tried their best to resist, by the end of the day, railroad stocks had fallen by about 10%.

However, the day after that, the situation reversed again, because "Kommersant" interviewed Mr. Cisse, the general manager of "Railway France", and Mr. Henry said that "Railway France" did not intend to reduce prices. Mr. Cisse said: "We won't do things that **** people and industry."

With the responsible statement of the "Railway France", the market was given another boost. So in this day's market, railway stocks slammed and almost completely regained the positions lost in the previous two days.

However, soon, people discovered a strange thing, that is, some people are constantly selling the "French Railway Company" stock, and the amount is so large that when the price of the entire railway stock is rising, "France The stock price of "Railway Company" has also fallen slightly. If among the various railway companies, which one is in the best condition, it is undoubtedly the "French Railway Company". It is natural to hate the unusual situation now. So all kinds of rumors have appeared one after another, and many people are saying that there is a big problem in the railway stocks, and now the dealer is ready to run away.

Kommersant once again interviewed some major shareholders of "Railway de France", and they all stated that they did not sell the shares of "Railway France" on a large scale. But this time, this report only had a counterproductive effect. After all, everyone is not a fool. If these guys don't sell a lot, then are so many "Railway France" stocks on the market sold by retail investors?

As a result, the situation reversed again, and the shares of "Railway de France" took the lead in a sharp decline. In just one day, the shares of "Railway France" fell by 60%. Driven by it, the entire railway stocks began to plummet. By the end of the day, the entire railway stock had fallen by nearly half.

The following day became even more tragic because of the news from the "Railway de France". Declare that they are prepared to lower prices and expand market share. They may want to use this method to increase stock prices, but this move has had a counterproductive effect. It is impossible for other railway companies to win the price war with the "Railway France". Once the "Railway France" joins the price war, it is almost equivalent to announcing their death penalty. As a result, the entire railway sector collapsed. By noon, most railway stocks were less than one-tenth of the price when the market opened in the morning.

In the afternoon ~lightnovelpub.net~ the panic intensified and people began to lose their minds and throw away the stocks in their hands. Many railway companies, calculated by the value of their stocks, were already seriously insolvent. As a result, the panic spread from the railway to the banks, and the stock prices of some banks with large amounts of railway debt also began to fall sharply.

By the end of the day, most of the stocks of railway companies have become waste paper that is not as good as the stocks of the year. Almost all can be sold by the catty. And bank stocks also fluctuated about 20%.

This fluctuation turned into a run on these legendary banks with large amounts of railway stocks or debts the next day. Some banks suddenly fell into a cash shortage and were not allowed to close their doors forcibly. At this time, in order to keep the bank, some bankers had to go to the Bank of Rome, or any other bank lending that could get cash. Then, their equity and debts were naturally pledged to banks such as Bank of Rome at a frighteningly low price.

"The market crash is not necessarily a bad thing." Beauvain said to Jerome. "Your elder brother, Academician Bonaparte once told me that in the Great Depression, those stocks that are truly valuable will return to him. In the hands of the real owner. This sentence is so good, it makes sense!" When he said this, Mr. Beauvain just used one-tenth of the money he received when he sold the shares of the "Railway France". , Bought back nearly twice the amount of "Railway France" stock.
