It's the age of cyber, and you're still a traditional villain?

Chapter 254 Bang, the bubble burst
The famous philosopher Amynos once said that some things only happen for the first time and the countless times.

Therefore, since the first order contract of "Pre-order Sea God Stone" was signed, a new door has been opened for countless people.

It can only be said that the enlightenment of thinking is very important. Once the news spread, everyone seemed to be enlightened, and followed this model one after another. First pay a part of the deposit, and then get a certain amount of Sea God Stone at a real-time price. Just make it up in full.

Of course, this kind of situation is more likely to happen to people who have no cash on hand. There is no other way. It seems to be the best way to participate in the transaction of the Sea God Stone if they have no money... But the fact is that even if they have Cash, most people will still choose this way.

Anyway, the market for Sea God Stone is booming, who would really worry about losing money?These contracts are money!

Take advantage of signing more points now, and you will have a better life in the future!
Not only buyers, but also sellers, large and small, have gradually given up on spot transactions as time goes by. Many sellers have even adopted the slogan of "only signing contracts" - you don't have cash, and I don't have that much. Goods, you can only make one profit if you sell it to one person, but if you sign a contract, you can sell it to ten, twenty or even more people at the same time, right?

As for the issue of due delivery, they don't care about it. After all, the delivery time is different. Secondly, the seller can also exist as a buyer. Wouldn't it be fine if I go to someone else to sign the order?
Some smart guys even learned tricks like proof of assets, are you afraid that I have no money?See how many contracts I have on hand!When it expires, it will be all white gold and silver, what else do you worry about?

Soon, the Poseidon Stone market became a contract market. At a glance, there were very few transactions that were actually settled in cash and goods, but contracts were flying all over the place, a contract of "pre-order xxx Poseidon Stone", even It can be used as currency to circulate among people.

Anyway, the contract is in black and white, and it bears the seal of the royal family or the Holy See. Who cares if the buyer or seller on the order does not honor it?

If it's really a lie, I'll go to the trial court and I'll have some good juice for you.

"Gu Jiangong, how come I can't understand the sale of the Sea God Stone now?"

As an event that was in full swing in the main city, the little empress Dongfang Xiao naturally kept a close eye on it. Whenever Cheng Gujian came to see him, she would chat with him more or less.

She can't help but not pay attention, firstly, as the king of a country, such a big matter is naturally on her desk all the time, secondly, the trend of trading the Sea God Stone is really popular everywhere, and it has long been no longer among common people It was a small fight, and many court officials also participated.

Of course, they also smelled the smell of money, and began to be dissatisfied with just collecting Seagod Stone decorations for ornamental purposes—the fact is that many people are nothing more than arty, and they don’t really like this shiny Seagod Stone products. Sorry, I can’t appreciate it .

But being able to make a profit from it is a good thing that everyone likes. Under such a trend, the rich and powerful nobles finally let go of their figures and began to end.

Most of the ordinary people's transactions revolve around the most inferior white Poseidon stone, sometimes mixed with a little medium-quality Poseidon stone. He was dizzy, and he didn't have the guts to sign an order tens or even hundreds of times higher than himself.

Not to mention that I went to collect money by myself, even if I disassembled the seven aunts and eight aunts and Xiaoqiang in my family into parts and sold them, I still wouldn't be able to get so much money!
Even if they can raise more funds by checking out or holding orders, they are more inclined to stay in the secondary market, preferring to trade more defective products, and will not consider those sky-high priced deep blue Seagod Stones.

After all, the price of the Sea God Stone has long gone high due to everyone's driving up.

Remember the price at the beginning?Fifty silver coins for the low-grade Sea God Stone, five gold coins for the medium-grade Sea God Stone, fifty gold coins for the best dark blue top-grade Sea God Stone... What is interesting is that today's market price seems to be at this level at first glance. Change a little bit.

but.

The unit of measurement has long since changed. It used to be calculated based on one hundred grams, but now...it's one gram.

A hundred times!
It has only been exactly one month since the first sale of the Sea God Stone!

With such a terrifying profit, I am afraid that looking at the entire Hualan Empire, it is impossible to find a second more profitable business!
The aristocrats are not worried about this problem. First of all, their families are rich, and ordinary people dare not buy and sell high-quality Sea God Stones. They don’t care. They have scraped the land for so many years... Ah no, generations of people have worked hard For so long, this small amount of money is not a problem at all!

Secondly, it's also the natural superiority in their hearts that is at work. The inferior people in coarse linen clothes are trading inferior or medium Sea God Stones. Wouldn't it be a loss for us to trade these?
If you want to buy, buy the big one!

Dongfang Xiao saw a minister who was as happy as a flower when he went to court yesterday. After asking, he found out that it was because he had just signed an order for [-] grams of high-quality Poseidon Stone, which was worth [-] gold coins. !
This number... is enough to buy a beautifully decorated castle with its own garden in the most prosperous upper city of the empire.

Logically speaking, the difference between how many Seagod Stones to trade and what kind of Seagod Stones to trade is really only the price. The rich buy more and the poor buy less... But I don’t know what’s going on, it’s this thing that makes the little queen Suddenly, I felt a little more uneasy.

She always felt that something was wrong, but she really couldn't tell.

That's why her expression today looks a little dignified, and she is always frowning.

"Including the contract signed by all parties, you should also have Gu Jiangong's permission, right?"

"Back to Your Majesty, yes."

Cheng Gujian replied calmly.

He himself has no intention of participating in this matter, but as the titular ruler of the imperial royal family, of course he must always pay attention.

At that time, this contract model was reported by the people below. After thinking about it, he also agreed to such a thing.

After all, there doesn't seem to be any problem here. Xu Shifang really spent real money, rushing like running water, and he doesn't know where he got so much money... Thinking about it this way, he is even a little unhappy, Brother Xu, you With such a big family, I only brought two boxes of gifts when I came to visit, isn't it a little short?
And he also sees the prosperity of the Sea God Stone market. Just now he said that a minister signed an order for a full-priced castle with a wave of his hand. However, the earlier fact is that someone has already exchanged a contract for a castle in the lower city. Nice house, which caused a little sensation at the time.

In fact, it was this incident that made him completely relieved. The previously approved contract orders may still be relatively stuck, but now they have been relaxed a lot.

"Is that so..."

Dongfang Xiao nodded thoughtfully, "Since you agree with Master Gu Jian, then I can feel relieved."

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty."

Cheng Gujian said seriously, "In Yichen's view, the price of the Sea God Stone may not keep rising, but normal price fluctuations are inevitable. Even the price of cattle and sheep traded among the common people will change every day, isn't it? Is it?"

"Then I don't care?"

These words dispelled a lot of the little queen's worries, and her brows finally relaxed.

Of course, there is another meaning to this statement. If something goes wrong, you are responsible, right?
Cheng Gujian nodded slightly, acquiescing to this meaning.

"That's fine."

Dongfang Xiao also nodded, "Sure enough, Grand Duke you can rely on... By the way, I asked you to send a letter to Xu Shi before, saying that you want to see him, why haven't you received a response yet?"

"Responding to Your Majesty, Xu Shi's reply came only two days ago. I have been busy with business recently, so I forgot it for a while."

Grand Duke Gu Jian was startled for a moment, then took out a document and handed it over, "The letter said that his injury has recovered. Of course he will come to see His Majesty. He will probably leave in the next two days."

"Okay, he's a big shelf."

There was a little bit of dissatisfaction in the little queen's tone. After all, she is also the lord of a country. Even if you are a foreigner, if I take the initiative to see you, it would be too embarrassing for you to delay for so long, right?

"Then Grand Duke, please pay more attention. When he comes to the main city, let him come to see me as soon as possible."

"Yes, that minister will leave."

At the end of the daily interview, Cheng Gujian stood up, saluted, and strode away.

Dongfang Xiao was still sitting in front of the desk in the study, clenched his right hand tightly, and even trembled under the force.

The truth is, it's not that she "felt something wrong and couldn't understand it", but that she had vaguely thought of a possibility.

The price of Poseidon Stone fluctuates, which is of course acceptable.

But what if the ups and downs are too big... what will happen?

This seems to be a problem that no one pays attention to, and no one will pay attention to this kind of problem. Now that the market is booming, you will be beaten if you say that this is not conducive to trading.

What is your purpose in saying this?Can't afford the Poseidon stone to put that acid?Almost got it.

But even though she was aware of this, she herself didn't seem to want to stop it.

Because if that's the case, maybe...

This is the only chance she has in this life.

She's taking a gamble.

……

Silver Pine Island.

Xu Shi is in a good mood today, or he has been in a good mood these days.

After all, Yinsong Island is booming. With the endorsement of Pan Cheng, the island owner, the islanders have also accepted the circuit transformation, and every household's daily facilities are now beginning to be electrified.

It's quite interesting to talk about this matter. Originally, in order to avoid unnecessary troubles, when building signal towers and laying circuits, these things were done in a relatively concealed way, especially the back mountain was simply sealed off, and many islanders didn't know it at all. There is such a thing.

When all of this is fully completed, everyone is still in the dark, and naturally there is a bit of a mysterious veil... So when Pan Cheng issued an order for circuit modification, many people were still a little bit resistant, or they kept their knowledge of unknown things. natural fear.

But after experiencing the convenience of electrification, any worries will disappear.

It's all so convenient, and it doesn't cost any money - Xu Shi didn't bother to charge them extra for electricity. With the popularization of the power system, there is basically no need for batteries, and the power generation is also based on water power, which is a great compliment to Pan. Sincerely the big brother's free assistance.

On the side of Night Sin City, Su Lin and the others have also arranged manpower, and talent assistance can be in place at any time.

There is a kind of vitality and the beauty of all things competing.

And he's playing games with his good daughter right now—I don't know where Xia Ke'an got his interest, but he suddenly proposed to play with him on the beach, so of course he, a father, couldn't refuse.

"You really went back to ten years old, didn't you..."

But having said that, looking at the old aunt who was happily building a castle with sand, he still couldn't help but want to complain.

"What are you talking about?"

The white-haired loli gave him a blank look, but her hands kept moving, "Smelly dad said before that he would take me to the amusement park? Did you go?"

"I know that you took Su Lin there! You are a big liar who doesn't believe what you say!"

Xia Keyan got angry for no apparent reason when he thought of this, grabbed a handful of sand and threw it at him.

Xu Shi dodged with a guilty conscience, he really couldn't refute this matter...

"Next time, definitely next time."

"Who wants you to be sure next time, hurry up and help me build the castle."

The old aunt curled her lips, but she didn't really blame him, "My lord has a lot to ignore, so you should play with me to your heart's content today."

"Good good."

Xu Shi smiled, walked over and hugged him with ease, "Here, I have prepared soapy water for you, do you want to blow bubbles?"

"want!"

The white-haired loli also smiled, and had a good time taking the tools.

Look, Xiao Ke'an can be satisfied so easily, where can I find such a good daughter?
A good daughter still cares about her bad father, so she can't help but ask, "Speaking of which, did the little queen you like send you a letter? Can't wait to see him?"

"What is my favorite little queen?"

Xu Shi sweated so much, "Is it itchy again?"

"Isn't she? She's just the type you'd expect."

Xia Keyan made a face, "You don't have to be secretive, I'm not jealous... Hey, don't play with my hair!"

"Just play and play."

Xu Shi made a ring shape with her hair, dipped it in some soapy water and started to blow bubbles, "Who cares if you are jealous or not? Is there any daughter who is jealous of her father?"

"No? There is an old saying that a daughter is her father's wife from a previous life... so what's that about?"

The old aunt also realized that she had made a slip of the tongue, but she didn't want to make up for it, instead she continued.

"Then if you say that, I will actually eat it. Can you give me an accurate answer? What will happen?"

"See you for sure."

Xu Shi scratched her face with her hair, and answered in an evasive manner, "Otherwise, why have you been busy for so long?"

While speaking, he blew another bubble, then reached out and touched it lightly.

boom.

The fragile bubble was popped instantly, and the beautiful refracted light disappeared instantly.
