There was such an unusual thing: a wealthy businessman, who is also a famous tulip collector, learned from a seaman that his cargo ship filled with Mediterranean goods had arrived at the port. The wealthy businessman invited the seaman into his shop full of various goods and gave him a red herring for breakfast in order to repay the good news he brought.

The seaman expressed his gratitude to the rich businessman. At the same time, he found an onion he thought was discarded on the counter, so he picked it up and walked out of the store. He ate it with herring in the fresh air. The onion tasted very good and the seaman quickly finished it. Unfortunately, this "onion" is of course not an onion, but an extremely precious "semper augustus" tulip rhizome, worth up to 3,000 florin.

The merchant immediately found that his proud "brilliant" disappeared, and began to search for it frantically, but there was no result. At this time, the merchant suddenly remembered the seaman, "It must be him who stole the rhizomes!" The merchant shouted, but it was too late. At this time, they found the seaman, who was sitting on a pile of ropes under the dock, and he had eaten all the herring and the "onion". Although he tried his best to argue that he was innocent, the seaman was still prosecuted for stealing tulips and was imprisoned.

"this……"

Zhang Zhun felt a little speechless.

Normal tulip trading is being conducted in Amsterdam's securities trading market, and such trading centers include Rotterdam, Haarlem, Raden Ackerman, Horen and many other cities. Speculators are gambling about the value of tulips, causing price fluctuations.

In the past, people had tulips because of snobbery, but now it was greed that defeated snobbery. The value of tulips was no longer what it was or could bring prestige to its owners, but only because it was seen as a way to make money quickly. Smart market operators made great profits, while naive investors who believed that tulips would have permanent demand in the Netherlands suffered heavy losses.

It was noted that even the extremely poor class had devoted their money and joined the crowd of people who were crazy about wealth. The expenses that were originally used to pay rent and buy food and clothing were used to make money without hesitation. Many people even sold their properties to collect enough funds to trade tulips.

"Is this... considered futures?"

After listening to Sai Viala's description, Zhang Zhun had a very ridiculous feeling.

No wonder the Dutch's national flower is tulips. No wonder the Dutch are so fascinated by tulips. It turns out that there are such crazy allusions in it. Zhang Zhun seems to be very familiar with such a story, but suddenly he can't remember what the story is.

After pondering for a while, Zhang Zhun said thoughtfully: "What do you want?"

Seviara smiled badly and said with a clever smile: "Of course I'm trying hard to increase the price of tulips."

Zhang Zhun nodded secretly in his heart.

This British woman seems to have a bit of a market economy mind.

The Dutch's crazy pursuit of tulips is obviously pathological. What is certain is that there must be many big merchants hype here. Through hype, they can make a lot of profits. As for the losses, they are naturally those ignorant investors.

When the price reaches its highest point, those professional speculators are very aware that this hysterical sentiment cannot continue and will definitely take all the tulips they have on the market. At that time, the price of tulips will inevitably drop and they will never be able to rebound. Many Dutch people who stretch their hands too long have to face the fate of losing their entire family.

What comes with the collapse of the tulip market is bound to be a storm of social unrest. People who suffer heavy losses may ask the government to take some remedies. But the government, like the victims of this speculation, is powerless to make things happen. Perhaps, this is the earliest economic crisis, an economic crisis brought about by tulips.

The "Dou You Play", "Jiang You Jun", "Garlic You Jun", "Sugar Gaozong"... the messy things seem to be hyped up. However, the level is not as crazy as tulips. If you participate in it yourself, Zhang Zhun has enough confidence to drag the Dutch into the deep hell. The premise is that the Hu Ben Army must have enough funds.

In addition to sufficient funds, there must be a trustworthy person. The most suitable person is definitely Shen Lingfei. However, Shen Lingfei is already pregnant and cannot go so far in Europe. Saiviara's suggestion must have ulterior motives.

"I think about it."

Zhang Zhun said slowly.
