I Am the Crown Prince in France

Chapter 52 The Reserve Bank of France (Additional update for Mr. Cai Shuning)

Joseph had just acquired a small bank that was on the verge of bankruptcy two days ago, and then changed its name to the Reserve Bank of France. The entire name change and registration process was very fast, after all, there was someone in the government.

The bank's storefront and staff are ready, so it has started operating normally since yesterday.

The next day, the Paris Stock Exchange responded to Brent's request and received a large reward, adding five traders specifically for Paris Angel's business.

The speed of stock transactions immediately increased. As the market closed at 4 p.m., a mysterious buyer suddenly appeared and bought all the remaining 430,000 shares of Paris Angel Company.

When the transaction information Buy, Paris Angel Company, 2 livres, 430,150 shares, totaling 860,300 livres. appeared, the entire trading scene suddenly fell silent.

Ten seconds later, the transaction information board appeared: For sale, Paris Angel Company, 2 livres and 2 sous, 40 shares, a total of 84 livres.

The record of these 40 shares being bought immediately appears below.

Soon, more selling information appeared. In less than ten minutes, the selling price had reached 2 livres and 5 sous, and all of them were eaten instantly.

Early the next morning, the share price of Paris Angel reached a high of 2 livres and 8 sous, but demand still exceeded supply, and stock trading suddenly became active.

At the transaction site, a young man from the United States, surrounded by seven or eight bodyguards, sat in the corner and observed the transaction information.

After a moment, he winked to the assistant beside him, who immediately came to the trader, placed 8,000 shares, and sold them for 3 livres.

Investors didn't pay much attention. After all, the price was too high and it should be difficult to sell.

However, less than three minutes later, all 8,000 shares were eaten in three batches.

Everyone who held stocks at the trading site immediately realized that something was wrong. The stock price seemed to be much higher than this level, otherwise people would not have bought it immediately no matter how high it opened. For a while, everyone began to hold back the market and hesitate to sell.

After that, the Americans ordered their men to buy and sell more than ten times. Most of them put it up for sale themselves and replaced it with others, and the prices were higher each time.

After the closing, the American young man and his bodyguard went to a high-end hotel not far away, locked the door, placed a large pile of bills on the table, and began to reconcile with Joseph's exclusive accountant.

Yes, this person is the trader hired by Joseph, and the bodyguards around him are all royal guards.

Because countries such as Britain and France restricted companies from selling stocks, the unrestrained United States became a paradise for stock trading and gave birth to many stock market wizards.

Thanks to their skilled operating skills, the closing price was close to 3 livres and 5 sous.

Almost all the front pages of Paris newspapers were frantically reporting on the share price of Paris Angels. Now people not only in Paris, but also in several nearby provinces have heard the news and rushed to buy stocks, and massive funds poured into the stock exchange.

It was not until the 6th day after Paris Angel's stock sale, when Paris Angel's share price reached 4 livres 5 sous, that a large number of selling orders appeared. But once the stock price starts to fall, someone immediately buys it in large amounts to stabilize the price.

Just after noon, the American trader sold the last 100,000 shares and left the crowded place with a relaxed look.

At Joseph's instruction, he sold another 200,000 original shares in Joseph's hands through the operation of buying low and selling high, and received a total of 6.15 million livres!

In the Palace of Versailles, in the Office of the Chancellor of Finance, Joseph looked at the loan agreement in front of him with a relaxed expression, feeling a little amused in his heart. He is both the assistant to the finance minister on one side of the agreement and the boss of the French Reserve Bank on the other side. He is holding the right hand with his left hand.

In the end, he signed a loan contract of 6 million livres with himself on behalf of the French government, with an interest rate of only 15%.

There was no problem with the payment. At this time, more than 8.1 million livres of funds were quietly lying in the account of the French Reserve Bank.

Palais Royal.

The Duke of Orleans looked at the headline of the La Presse de Paris on the table - The Crown Prince is unable to cope with financial difficulties and the government debt is about to default. He suddenly grabbed the newspaper and tore it into pieces.

This is the newspaper from yesterday.

He had received the news this morning that the 6 million national debt had been paid in full, and all the funds had flowed out of the French Reserve Bank.

The people from Bank Lavelle and Bank Laborde had just left half an hour ago. In order to appease the two banks, he had to allocate more business in the UK to them.

The Duke of Orleans couldn't help but remember that at that banquet a month ago, he took the opportunity to introduce major French banks to invest in the British automatic textile machine project. He asked the two banks to block the loan of 6 million livres and asked other banks to cooperate. situation.

At that time, he felt that as long as the matter was handled casually, the crown prince would be unable to do anything. After all, the biggest names in French finance are at the banquet table. As long as they nod, no one will be able to get a large loan from the bank.

Unexpectedly, that boy actually got the money.

Not long after, the butler knocked on the door and came in. He saluted the Duke of Orleans and said, Sir, we have found out. The bank's original name was Serto Bank, and it was just acquired by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince a few days ago.

Bank acquisition information is public and can be easily checked.

The Duke of Orleans frowned suddenly, how could this be possible? The crown prince can actually create a bank with 6 million funds? How did he do that?
