The first thousand one hundred and six chapters are pregnant with ghosts
The suspension of stocks in the Northwest sector at the same time caused a considerable shock. It is not a strange thing to suspend stocks. When listed companies have important information released, such as publishing annual reports, interim performance reports, holding shareholders' meetings, increasing capital and expanding shares, announcing distribution plans, major acquisitions, mergers, investments, and equity changes, etc., in order to avoid huge fluctuations in the stock price, the suspension will be suspended.
However, all stocks in the Northwest sector suddenly stopped trading without any news. Even if they were slow, they could guess that there must be major changes in the Northwest, and all kinds of speculations were flying all over the sky for a while.
However, the Securities News and major newspapers are silent on this and do not report it. Instead, some tabloids talk about this matter and conduct various speculations and analysis in succession, which has attracted a lot of attention.
Yi Zhizu did not take the special train to return to Shanghai directly. In order to cover up his sights, he arrived straight to Hangzhou and then quietly returned to Shanghai by car.
The collective suspension of stocks in the Northwest sector is not only to protect the interests of investors, but also to avoid major financial turmoil. Once news of the Northwest rebellion spreads, stocks in the Northwest sector will inevitably experience a cliff-like plunge, and may even trigger a financial storm.
A direct suspension of the market may cause all kinds of suspicion, but this matter cannot be concealed. Sooner or later, it will be made public to the world. If you like to guess, let them guess. As for the stock market turmoil, it is inevitable. However, the suspension of stocks in the Northwest sector should make people see Yuanqi's determination to maintain the stock market.
Instead of meeting in the capital, Sushun returned to Shanghai with the same place and moved directly into the Zhennan Prince's Mansion. Empress Dowager Ci'an and Emperor Guangxu are still trapped in the northwest coalition forces. It is not clear whether Zhu Shanhai was instructed by the emperor's royal family and nobles in the capital. In this case, he would not be willing to return to the capital.
After sleeping all night, Sushun arrived at Changle Bookstore on time at 8 o'clock the next morning. Zhao Liewen came earlier than him and asked him into the study room. While making tea, he smiled and said, "Since the shopkeeper is secretly returning to Shanghai, he will not see guests. I guess he has not gotten up yet. I am afraid that he will have to wait for a while."
"It's okay, you can't rest and rest. You can wait here and feel more at ease." Su Shun said, "The city is full of wind and rain, and it's hard to cover up the things in the northwest for a long time."
Zhao Liewen glanced at him and said, "Sir, are you worried that the Empress Dowager and the Emperor's holy reputation will be damaged?"
"That's right." Sushun did not hide his worries in his heart. "The Empress Dowager and the Emperor are still trapped in Gongning. Once the matters in the northwest are made public, the government and the people will probably have many suspicions."
"Let King Gong reveal the truth." As he spoke, Yi Zhizu walked into the room and sat down and continued: "The stocks in the northwest sector have been suspended, so there is no need to cover up and report them publicly. In addition, King Gong drew four brigades from the capital to Xi'an and set up a formation to march into the northwest to calm the chaos."
As he said that, he looked at Zhao Liewen, "Send a report to Yan Yangtian, and send him a total of 100,000 troops from Mongolia, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Gansu, Henan, Hunan, Hubei, Jiangsu and other provinces to gather in Xi'an. The more the movement, the better it will be known to everyone in the court and the public."
After pausing, he continued: "The telegram is to Feng Renxuan and Zuo Zongtang. It is rare to have an opportunity. All the local officials, troops, soldiers, caravans, people and tribes of all ethnic groups who have been called for, agreed and supported, and participated in the independence of the northwest. They should take the opportunity to catch all the people in one go and annihilate them all! If the northwest wants long-term stability, they must not only show kindness, but also establish authority, and they must also give both kindness and authority!"
Su Shun was silent when he said this murderous intent, afraid that this was the real reason why the other party made Feng Renxuan pretend to announce the independence of the northwest. He had to secretly admire him. After this purge and clean up, the northwest would inevitably be bloody, but this infamous was all caused by Feng Renxuan, Zhu Shanhai and other riots.
The blame is not only black, but also big, and it is enough for the military and political officials in the northwest to take it! But thinking about it, they have no choice but to blame this Northwest Rebellion. Who will take the blame if they don’t take it?
After issuing several telegrams, he handed them over to Zhao Liewen and Sushun. Yi Zhizu picked up the microphone and connected it and said: "Check the securities company, Huo Qizheng."
Soon, Huo Qizheng's surprise voice came from the microphone, "Have the shopkeeper returned home?"
"Keep confidential for the time being." Yi Zhizu reminded him and said: "Something happened in the northwest, and the news will be made public soon. The stock market will inevitably be greatly affected. Be prepared to support the market..."
"The Northwest Army Mutiny and ambushed the Zhennan King's special train in Turpan, and the Zhennan King survived by chance."
"The Northwest Army rebelled, and Deputy Commander Zhu Shanhai was under house arrest for the Empress Dowager and the Emperor who were inspecting Gongning."
"Governor Feng Renxuan of Anxi proclaimed himself king."
"The two northwest provinces rebelled! The imperial court is drawing troops from eight provinces including Shaanxi and Gansu to gather in the northwest!"
One after another, the government and the country were in an uproar!
Rare and strange disasters - the drought in the seven northern provinces had just eased in the five-year period, and the smoke of South Africa had just disappeared. The Northwest Army stationed in the northwest provinces and was leaned as the Great Wall of the northwest, openly rebelled, ambushed the Zhennan King's special train, imprisoned the Empress Dowager and the Emperor, and even proclaimed himself king!
Such a rebellious thing was beyond everyone's imagination. For a moment, the crowd was in a raging mood, and the calls for the Northwest Army were rising and falling.
The stock market responded the most fiercely. As soon as the news came out, the stock market fell in response, and quickly triggered panic and turned into a plunge!
The Securities Journal quickly launched an out-of-country public opinion guidance, calling on investors to view the Northwest Rebellion correctly and rationally, and pointed out that the court is gathering forces to quell the Northwest Rebellion soon. Moreover, the suspension of stocks in the Northwest sector is itself a kind of protection, and it is enough to show Yuanqi's determination to maintain the stability of the stock market.
Although public opinion was guided in time, as the stock market plummeted, the market panic spread rapidly. The plunge lasted for three days, and the market panic was finally released. With Yuanqi not hesitating to enter the market to support the market, the stock market was barely stable.
Petersburg, the Hermitage, Russia.
In his early sixties, he was slightly bald and had a thick beard, Tsar Alexander II put down the telegram in his hand, pondered for a while before looking at Prime Minister Gorchakov, and said slowly: "Is this a trap? Or a chance?"
Gorchakov replied calmly: "The possibility of being a trap is not high. It is impossible for the Qing Dynasty to lay out a trap that is not very meaningful at such a cost."
"Not much significance?" The Tsar was a little surprised.
"It really doesn't make much sense." Gorchakov said slowly: "If it is a trap, it should be mainly aimed at our country. Now the Eurasian Railway will be fully connected soon, maintaining long-term stability with the Qing Dynasty and being a large-scale trade, which is more conducive to promoting the rapid economic recovery and development of our country, and is also more in line with our current interests.
The Eurasian Railway was proposed and actively promoted by Yuanqiyi. The other party should be very clear about the value of opening up land transportation across the two continents of Eurasia, and also know how much impact the two empires have on Europe and even the entire world pattern, and will not conduct meaningless testing."
This is not without reason, but Alexander II was still a little unwilling to accept it and pondered: "If a new empire can appear in Central Asia, there will be a buffer zone between our country and the Qing Dynasty. In the long run, it is also in line with the fundamental interests of our country. Moreover, this opportunity is rare and it is difficult to have it again in the future."
After a pause, he continued: "In addition, I do not think that the establishment of this new empire will affect the railway trade between our country and the Qing Dynasty. It can be transferred through this new empire, and it is nothing more than adding more taxes."
"Your Majesty." Gorchakov reminded: "If our country supports or supports Central Asia to break away from the Qing Dynasty, will the Qing Dynasty maintain close relations with our country and conduct cross-border railway trade?"
Alexander II looked confident, "If the Qing Dynasty wants to increase its influence in Europe, or to restrain England, it must rely on our country."
"The relationship between the Qing Dynasty and Germany is also very close now," Gorchakov said: "And the Qing Dynasty is now planning to restrain England through Germany."
After a slight salute, he added: "Your Majesty, as long as our country becomes stronger, there is a chance to seize Central Asia..."
Alexander II did not say anything. After missing this opportunity, the Qing Dynasty affirmed or strengthened its rule over Central Asia. It would be difficult to have a chance in the future. The fact that the Qing Dynasty developed much faster than Russia. After a while, he muffled: "Let's see what's going on first."
10 Downing Street, England, London, Westminster District, Prime Minister's Residence.
The Marquis of Foreign Minister Salisbury quickly walked into Prime Minister Disraelli's office, "Your Excellency, call from Kolkata, during the rebellion in the northwest of the Qing Dynasty, Kokand had telegrams with Hami..."
There is also this? After reading the telegram, Disraeli tightened his eyebrows and pondered without saying a word. Central Asia announced its independence from the Qing Dynasty. He was ecstatic. Once Central Asia is independent, the British Empire will have the opportunity to expand to Central Asia, and the Qing Dynasty will not be able to pose a threat to India from the northwest.
Even the British Empire could threaten the Persian Gulf coast by expanding to Central Asia, regain control of the Persian Gulf, and further invade the Persian Empire and the Ottoman Empire, firmly control the Middle East.
But judging from the situation of this telegram report, Feng Renxuan's self-reliance and title of kingship may be a trap!
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Salisbury thought about it: "The telegram between Haohan and Hami was a secret telegram, but the telegram to Hami was lengthy, but the call was very simple. It was also possible that it was easy to reject Feng's request, which led to Feng's rebellion."
After a pause, he continued: "I think we can try to contact Feng and provide them with help in exchange for the territory adjacent to India."
"No." Disraelli shook his head slowly, "What we should do now is to publicly acknowledge and congratulate Feng on the new empire established!"
Salisbury hesitated for a moment and then reacted, "Are you planning to provoke relations between Russia and the Qing Dynasty?"
