After the corpses were removed and the waterlogging dissipated, Shanghai seemed to have returned to the bustle of the past. However, there had been no movement from all parties for many days, which always made people feel that something was missing.
Is it excitement? Is it pleasure? Is it a relief from the depression in my heart? I don’t know, I just feel that the previous commotion allows people to temporarily take off the heat of the weather and the worries of life.
Of course, Lin Mo and others did not withdraw, and even sneaked into the city. However, all parties fell silent for a while. I wonder if a new round of fighting is brewing, or are they really unwilling to stir up trouble again?
Of course, the aftermath is still there. Various trading markets are a lively and exciting scene. Countless people are silent in the carnival, but there are also countless people stamping their feet in annoyance.
In the past few days, the trading markets of stocks, futures, gold and silver, etc., have been going in a very satisfactory direction, and the price of silver has been rising all the way.
Today, Lan Wei Aifang, who has been silent for many days, finally expressed his willingness to honor the contract under pressure from all parties and will open the redemption of silver in due course.
As soon as this statement came out, the price of silver suddenly rose sharply. Amidst the laughter, countless people were so excited that they couldn't help themselves.
Not only did the price of silver rise, but the contract price also rose rapidly. Even if the price of silver has not yet risen back to the contract price, there are still many people asking to sell. Unfortunately, except for a very small number of people, almost no one sells.
By the end of the day, news came back from abroad that the foreign silver market had stabilized prices and started to rise slightly, which immediately aroused excitement again. Some places where over-the-counter trading was even more lively.
Now everyone can learn. If the situation is not reported back after the foreign market opens, it will not disperse easily. It will wait until night, and this is especially true for silver traders. If the situation in the US market is not reported back, it will not disperse easily.
Some even hired people to keep an eye on the situation all night long.
In the past few days, the foreign silver market has also hit the bottom one after another. Amidst the stumbling, the price has turned slightly higher. According to the news sent back today, the increase in silver price has increased significantly. Although it is not a sudden increase, it is still a big increase in the silver market.
Obviously, the aftermath surrounding silver will continue to fluctuate for some time, and we don’t know when it will be completely calmed down.
On the riverside base ship, Lin Mo led people to welcome Xu Guyu aboard. Lin Mo felt a little uneasy. He didn't know what happened when the section chief arrived again at this time.
Mainly, Lin Mo thought about it, but he didn't expect any of the links to go wrong, so he couldn't help but feel a little worried.
After being polite and having another midnight snack, Lin Mo breathed a sigh of relief, dismissed the others, and followed Xu Gu Yu into the small conference room.
"...Sigh..." After asking about the situation, Xu Guyu sighed with helplessness on his face, and Lin Mo's heart dropped to the bottom.
However, when Xu Guyu said it, Lin Mo was greatly relieved. Oops! I thought wrongly. It was not what Lin Mo was worried about, what kind of monsters were there in Japan, or what kind of compromises had the government made.
"What's that expression on your face? The boss sent me to find out about Baiyin's situation, and by the way, I want to ask you, the client, what you think about this matter."
I said I was asking for ideas, but I encountered a difficult problem and wanted Lin Mo to give me some advice. Although Lin Mo was relieved, this matter was indeed difficult to handle.
"Section Chief, I have a question. Weren't the above worried that this silver might cause trouble before? Why did their attitude change so quickly? Now many people are still thinking about this silver. My analysis and suggestions may not be so effective.
Bar?"
"What a beautiful idea!" Xu Guyu was speechless, rolled his eyes at Lin Mo, and joked: "When something like this happens, shouldn't we praise the leader for being wise?"
"...Yes, yes..." Lin Mo nodded with a smile and replied: "The leader is wise! The boss is wise! The section chief is even wiser!"
Xu Guyu laughed and said sternly: "No more nonsense, it was the foreigners who leaked the news to us, and Japan internally pointed the finger at the Mitsui Consortium, which is the most powerful.
Moreover, within Japan, they tried their best to cover up the matter and did not publicize it. They probably did not make a big fuss out of this matter or cause trouble, and their tough negotiations with us were just a show of force."
Lin Mo nodded and asked some more details to confirm that there should be no problems with the situation. Then Lin Mo carefully considered what Xu Guyu mentioned.
Because of this news, it meant that the silver they had captured was basically safe. Faced with this large sum of silver, some people within the government inevitably made up their minds.
For example, the God of Wealth who is in charge of the government's money, the chairman's brother-in-law, the man from the Ministry of Finance, and his brother-in-law who resigned after a conflict with the chairman, are the two most important ones.
Of course, I don't want to take away the silver directly, anyway! The Intelligence Department is a key department that directly takes orders from the principal, so we don't dare to go too far.
The purpose of the God of Wealth is to borrow the silver, saying that the government's silver reserves are insufficient, and he wants to use the silver to stabilize the silver price and stabilize the market.
As for money, if the Intelligence Bureau needs it in the future, it can draw as much as it needs. As long as it is not a huge amount, it can be used as it pleases.
According to Uncle Song, he has now opened a bank and is vigorously attracting foreign capital. He is not talking about borrowing, but he just hopes to deposit silver and expand funds to better absorb funds.
Lin Mo guessed that Boss Dai was worried because, firstly, both of them had handed over the message, so no one could afford to offend him, and secondly, he probably didn’t want to take out the silver.
Of course, there must be other people with various ideas, but with these two here, those people can't make any troubles, and those who can make troubles, let alone give them, are not of the same mind as the principal, and they can do whatever they think of.
Rejected.
After thinking about it carefully, Lin Mo said: "The God of Wealth is a bit unkind. He said he borrowed it, but he didn't mention interest, nor did he mention whether the silver would rise or fall afterwards. Should he pay back the silver or something else?
And it sounds nice to say that you can pay as you go, but this matter can easily be mixed with the funds that we normally apply for from them, which will cause us to suffer a dumb loss. Moreover, in this way, our use of funds will be subject to supervision, and it will also greatly increase the number of leaks.
risk.
Uncle Song is a little more kind and just allows the deposit to be made, but we have a large demand for funds. After depositing and then withdrawing large sums of money, I am afraid it will make people unhappy, and there is also the problem of leakage of funds in the flow."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Lin Mo only picked up some scraps, innocuous things, and used some means to turn money into the hands of others, or to borrow money from the rise and fall of silver prices.
Of course, Lin Mo wouldn't talk about entering and exiting for profit.
Xu Guyu nodded and said: "Then is there any way to deal with it? What's more! This is not a question of who gives good conditions to whom, but we can't afford to offend both of them."
Lin Mo nodded, organized his words, and replied: "The first point is that this silver should not be exposed in the short term, and even if it is handled, it must be done secretly, and it will definitely take a lot of time.
Although Japan is pointing its sword at others, if the other party takes advantage of it, neither the Japanese government nor those who are being suppressed will give up easily. We cannot ignore it just because foreigners reveal some information.
The second point is to talk about the silver price. The unstable silver price will indeed affect the domestic economy. It is understandable that the God of Wealth wants to stabilize the silver price, but this does not necessarily solve the problem.
When we stabilize the silver price, we only stabilize the domestic silver price. There is nothing we can do about the international silver price. Once the domestic and international silver prices form a large price difference, there is a high probability that domestic silver will flow out wildly.
There have been signs of this before or even happened before. Once a large outflow of silver occurs, it will lead to domestic monetary tightening, that is, a shortage of silver, which will also give a huge blow to the economy.
It is difficult to control the outflow of silver. We cannot control the concessions in various places. However, the foreign banks in them hold huge amounts of silver. Even if we can negotiate with the concessions, it is impossible to control it in places like Hong Kong.
.
Not to mention the Japanese. Once they see an opportunity to make profits and attack us, they will never let it go, and they will never easily ignore our negotiations.
By then, Shanghai and the north will become big holes, and silver will flow out. This time we encountered a group of Japanese, who may have come here for this purpose..."
Speaking of this, Lin Mo explained to Xu Guyu the situation of the Black Dragon Society and the former congressman, as well as some of his inferences.
"You want us to use this reason to convince those two people not to move the silver? I'm afraid it's not that easy." Xu Guyu shook his head, not too optimistic about Lin Mo's idea.
Lin Mo heard the words and continued: "These are just the situations that need to be explained to those two people, especially the God of Wealth. It is very unrealistic to solve the silver problem right now and start with us based on the silver price.
The best way is to reform the currency system as soon as possible and get rid of the current situation of the silver standard, so as to minimize the impact. Both of these two people know that using this as an excuse, one is to reject it as a reason, and the other is to remind them of the urgency of the matter.
degree.
Of course, it is definitely unrealistic to convince the two of them based on this alone, but we can promise that after the currency reform is completed, we can quickly convert silver into new coins as support.
Before this, it actually didn't make much sense to get the silver in hand. It might even be that because of the silver in hand, all parties were forced to let it go, causing a lot of trouble.
These are mainly to deal with the God of Wealth. As for Guojiuye, the operating conditions of its banks are actually closely related to the price of silver. If the price of silver is unstable, the domestic economy will be unstable and it will be difficult to attract foreign investment.
Therefore, for Uncle Guo, the most important thing at the moment is the currency issue. In addition, we can exchange the funds and deposit them. It is not hard currency like silver. He should not care too much about withdrawing it.
In addition, I would like to inform my uncle that Britain and France are taking advantage of the fluctuations in silver prices to quietly import their colonial currencies into the country. I am afraid it will not be easy to get these two countries to support domestic currency reform.
Let me explain here, because it is the United States that takes the initiative to raise the price of silver, I am afraid it will not be too enthusiastic about domestic currency reform, and the domestic monetary system reform tends to be linked to European and American countries. The national government is probably hoping to contact Britain and France.
