Chapter 1138

At this time, the price of cold iron is still falling, because it was fried twice before, and all the cold iron piled up in the warehouse has flowed to the market, far exceeding the market demand.

But careful people will find that when cold iron falls to a third of the original price, it starts to rise again, and the rate of recovery far exceeds the normal bottom touch rebound.

People with some business experience know that this is the lowest price of cold iron, and they start to buy a lot of iron, which makes the price rise rapidly.

Now that we know this, it's easy to do. The merchants began to follow the trend and bought cold iron again.

When the price of cold iron rose for the first time, a small number of people bought it. The second time, all the rich merchants bought it in large quantities. These two groups have become rich now.

So when the price of cold iron rose for the third time, both businesses and civilians bought cold iron with the money they could afford.

Before the loss of money to pawnshop mortgage of the ancestral and farmland to borrow money to buy.

People who have no money or land go to the bank to borrow money and buy it.

So this time, Hua Ruge only bought a batch of cold iron at the lowest price, and the price returned to the normal level. The cold iron on the market was robbed, not only the cold iron, but also the cold iron ore that can be bought. The price of cold iron disappeared on the market in just five days.

Cold iron is the necessary material for making weapons. As a result, all the workshops for forging weapons have been shut down. Not only the workshops of the common people, but also the barracks for practicing weapons of the imperial court.

The price of weapons also rises with the tide, and then rises again. At last, people can't afford weapons.

The great Zhou Dynasty relied on metal ore refining weapons to support the economy. Now there is no cold iron available on the market. The state can only speed up the mining of cold iron ore and want to dig more ore in a short time to save the market.

No matter whether the country has weapons or not, or whether they sell weapons to other countries, they just wait for the price to fall and throw out the cold iron in their hands. They also become rich overnight, and turn their hands and go to the top of life.

The price of cold iron is indeed frightening. After seven days, it has risen to 30 times the market price, but it is still high.

Hua Ruge, after receiving the news, only cares about eating and drinking at home, and doesn't care about it at all.

The market has its own law of market, which does not allow the balance to be broken for a long time. Now that things are up, it's better for her to wait and see them change.

It was not long after the rise to 30 times, finally someone could not sit still and began to throw the cold iron into the market. Once someone took the lead, it was out of control. Everyone began to throw out the cold iron in one night. The price of the cold iron rose rapidly, and now it fell faster.

Three days later, the price of cold iron fell back to the market. Five days later, it fell to two-thirds of the original price. Seven days later, it fell to one-third of the original price. Ten days later, it fell to one-quarter of the original price.

Cold iron is totally worthless, and in this process, some people are happy and some are worried. Because the price of cold iron is falling faster than rising, only a few people throw it out at a high price and make a lot of money.

Fewer people have poor channels, but they also throw them out in time to make money.

But the market is so large. Except for the need for cold iron in auctions, weapons pavilions, and workshops for forging weapons, ordinary people don't need it. So now the cold iron on the market is far more than they need. This leads to more people throwing out the cold iron at a very low price, or smashing it in their hands and no one buying it at all.

People with good sales channels are only a few big merchants, and those small merchants and people who blindly follow the trend will lose a lot.

Those who took the money to pay for the loss of their property and pawn the property speculation completely paid for their property. Those who borrowed money to buy the spirit stone owed a huge amount of money. Those who borrowed money to buy not only owed the principal of the bank, but also the interest in the future.

This next week's economy completely collapsed. Most of the merchants closed their doors. Part of the money went back to business, and the other part was that the shops lost money to pawnshops. After all, the money can't afford to be mortgaged.

Ordinary people in the city can't even eat. They used to make money by their craft or strength. Now most of the shops are closed down, and the economy is depressed. Lingshi has become worthless. Compared with the soaring prices, they have no way.

Monks also pay for jingle, but fortunately they don't need to eat, but even if the money in their hands is not enough to buy pills to practice or experience, they are also very distressed.

It's not easy for those big businessmen who have made money, because now the shops are closed, the workshops are closed, and the national resources are exhausted. So the price of everything except cold iron is very high. They seem to have a lot of money in their hands, but their purchasing power has not changed much.

In this kind of environment, it is hard for people not to change their mind, so the number of thieves and robbers in the whole Zhou Dynasty suddenly increased, and all the cities were in chaos. As a result of the forced suppression by local officials, there were several riots instead of being suppressed.

The imperial officials and emperors, paralyzed by the false image of economic recovery, woke up suddenly, but it was too late.

Today, the economy is completely collapsed, industry and commerce are completely paralyzed, people are restless, a mess.

A great mistake has been made!

In the Imperial Palace, the emperor of Zhou clapped the Dragon case in front of all the ministers. His face was livid, and he squeezed a sentence out of his teeth: "you are cruel, you are cruel

Today, he can't think clearly. Since the price change of grain two months ago, this is a conspiracy against the Zhou Dynasty, a well-designed economic invasion.

"Your Majesty, don't be angry. Now the people are restless and may mutiny at any time. You need to make an idea quickly." Next, an old minister wrote.

The emperor of Zhou also saw the storm. He knew that at this time, he could not be disordered. He calmed his mood for a while. He said, "I will give orders to continue, I will sympathize with the people, exempt all taxes of this year, and allocate funds to all regions for reconstruction."

Only when hope is given is not the only way to go.

"Your Majesty is wise, but there is nothing left to be desired. I'm afraid that the spirit stone of the Treasury is only a drop in the bucket." The old minister said again.

The emperor of the Zhou Dynasty held his hand tightly in his broad robe and sleeves, but kept quiet on his face. "He ordered the full reclamation of metal ores."

This kind of unrestrained reclamation resources is no doubt to cut off his own way, but he has no other choice. If he does not save the country, he will really die.

"Your majesty!" The ministers said in unison.

The emperor of the Zhou Dynasty waved his hand: "let's draw up a plan."

When Hua Ruge saw the emperor's will, he could not help but put down his melon seeds and said with interest, "the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty is a little competent. All of them can be saved."
