【369】 The event escalates, the earl loses his wealth

Just kidding, if you make money according to this efficiency, if you keep making money, within a year, the world's richest man will be the throne of T.k Morgan!

The changes in the US stock market have come to an end. In short, the ups and downs of the Earl sector in the past two days have basically met Long Hao's expectations.

At the end of May 24, under the tone of everyone's confrontation with Long Hao, the stock price was like Sun Wuzhizi suppressed by Wuzhishan, honestly and never caused any storm.

Falling, falling 138%!

The Earl sector fell by more than 100% in a single day on May 24, and closed with an extremely long daily chart negative line!

The naval gunboats still blocked the San Francisco seaport. Although no shells were fired after this afternoon, according to our newspaper, many employees of the Earl of Beihai have evacuated from the factory, and some of the employees have surrounded the residence where the Earl of Beihai are staying and asked for their wages!

Based on all the factors, it seems that the Earl of North Sea is really doomed this time. Could it be that he is really as the rumor that our newspaper just received, after completing the San Francisco industry, he will be on the flagship of Colonel Bansen tomorrow and accept the other party’s unreasonable investigation?

This newspaper believes...

On the evening of May 24, whether it is the western newspapers or the eastern media, they are reporting on the super events that happened today in the same tone, whether it is the stock market or the bombardment, these media are instilling a thought into the American people: Earl of North Sea is over this time! If you have relatives and friends who work under that count, please inform them to leave as soon as possible! If you have stocks related to Earl of North Sea in your hand, please sell them as soon as possible...

The entire American media industry has extremely rare unified thinking and has to press on another mountain on the back of the Earl of North Sea, which has fallen to the bottom, as if he wants to never turn over!

Since the media said so, Americans who have not experienced the media storm have certainly heard it. On May 25, the five major exchanges in the United States opened. The Earl sector fell again without any surprise, with the target directly pointing to the issue price at the beginning of this month!

The stock market is sequential, and the Earl sector has fallen so violently without moral integrity. Naturally, the stock prices of other industries have also shrunk to a greater or lesser extent, making those real merchants who have suffered unrestrained disasters beat their chests and stamp their feet, and really hated Benson's "make trouble" fleet to the bone!

On the contrary, those who make a fortune in the stock market are those consortiums such as DuPont that focus on financial operations. Severe stock price fluctuations mean that more retail investors in idle markets have lost their positions, and the money lost in liquidation, needless to say, is naturally digested by the banks they control!

As a super consortium in the American financial industry, Morgan should have gotten a share of this feast. But unfortunately, JP. Morgan fainted again at the close of yesterday (May 24). It is said that on the 25th, he lies in the best hospital in Chicago and cannot pay attention to the stock market. He has no leader, so the Morgan family missed such a good opportunity to make a fortune in vain.

Of course, this money is just a small amount of money for the Morgan family, and for them, it is not as much as JP. Morgan is healthy.

In addition, let’s mention the Rockefeller family. They followed JD. Rockefeller’s opinion and did not participate in the Earl’s sector transaction on the 24th. Afterwards, the Rockefeller traders were all glad to have a cold sweat!

Really, it's a slap!

We just said that the stock market fluctuations on the 23rd were once a lifetime, and they were so abnormal that they could not be abnormal and would not reappear. Yesterday's stock price change gave us a loud slap! Oh. Fortunately, our waves were not tempted by money and ordered us to wait and see. Otherwise, we would probably cry with JP.Morgan now!

May 25 in San Francisco will also be spent in the afterglow of the sunset, but Benson angrily tore off a piece of paper from his hand on the Gogol. His eyes were like a falcon, staring at Krim who was trembling in front of him, grinding his back teeth and asked, "You, you waste! I asked you to bring the Earl of North Sea, but what happened to you? You only brought back a note? Oh, he changed his mind, he changed his mind, he refused to board my warship. What's the matter with this?!"

If the note that turned into debris was put together, it would only express one meaning: Long Hao regretted it. After delaying for more than a day, he regretted not getting on the boat with Krem!

Krim was sweating all over his head, but he didn't dare to reach out to wipe it, because he knew that the current situation was serious, and his immediate boss's patience was probably at its limit. If he argued for him, he might force him to take out his pistol!

If you want to blame, hey, it’s just that the Earl of North Sea is so scoundrel! Yes, how can you be so shameless? You are a dignified British nobleman!

How can you go back on your word if you say it?

At that time, Krim asked Long Hao in this tone, but the answer he got was just Long Hao's sneer: "Hey, come on board the ship with you? That's a death. Do you think I'm so stupid and handing my life to your hands? Humph, if you can't get out of the evidence of accusation, get out of here quickly. By the way, tell Captain Benson that the good things he did here should be known in the whole United States now, and he will wait for the military department to send someone to deal with him! Hahaha..."

Then, Krim was driven out by the Dragon Scale Army with live ammunition.

"Okay, it turns out to be a delaying strategy! There is no lower limit. This yellow boy, I swear to kill you!"

Benson, who understood, was furious and now he had only two ways to go. One was to find out the evidence that Long Hao had disappeared five destroyers, expose it to the media, and explain to the White House and the Military Department. The other was to go find Ferrymant and ask him to send out the isolated British sailors to manipulate naval guns, and bombard the commercial seaport for the third time! Use violence to defeat violence and bombard the other party!

Benson originally had to take action first and then report, and quickly fight and win Long Hao, but he didn't expect that Long Hao had laid a telephone line in advance, summoned a large number of reporters, and delayed the time with $30,000. Now the whole United States is watching Benson's jokes!

A huge joke!

Wow, how dare you play tricks on me like this!

Benson was so angry that he cursed, thinking to himself: It is basically unlikely to find evidence in a short period of time! This Earl of North Sea is as cunning as a fox, and it is not moving, so I am afraid that there will be no chance to catch him again! If he has cleaned up the San Francisco industry, he will probably have to use oil to escape! No, he will continue to bombard the city government of San Francisco and put pressure on the sea merchants in the harbor to entangle the Earl of North Sea!

Benson, who was determined to go all out, went to find Ferrymant, but unexpectedly he was turned away.

Ferrymant raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, you're going to bombard again? Little Benson, your idea is just as fast as a woman's idea of ​​choosing clothes!"

Benson laughed apologized and told him about Long Hao's breaking the contract: "It's really that boy from the East is too cunning. He won't be honest without a cannon! Please help me this time..."

Feilimante shook the red wine, soaking freshly picked petals in the wine glass: "It's OK to fire, but I'll have five times this time!"

"Five times what?"

"Five times the loss! Little Benson. You just received a check yesterday. Do you want to take it alone?"

Damn British guy, you know money, you're taking the opportunity to blackmail!

Benson's face turned blue and his thoughts turned, and he really couldn't bear to leave the 30,000 dollars he had just obtained. Then, he made up his mind that he could not let Feilimante, the old fox, lead the money-greedy one, lead the nose!

I'm paralyzed, I haven't settled the score with you for firing randomly yet. Do you dare to ask for money? Do you really think that I, Benson, won't get angry?

So Benson threw a word and slammed the door and left: "You British don't need help, isn't it just a cannon? I'll fight slowly one by one. Anyway, there is no need for accuracy this time. Although the sailors under my command are good enough!"

Now, it was Feilimante's turn to fall to the ground and was stunned: Oh, I miscalculated. This little Benson is going to be a life-threatening child. No matter where I care about the accuracy or not, as long as I can shoot the shells out, it will be considered a victory. Grass, grass, grass, loss, it will be a big loss! I would have known that I would agree.

Later, Feilimantra was polite and ran to Benson to ask for a fight with a smile, but Benson refused them all.

Benson decided that when dawn tomorrow, the ship's shelling that had been on the verge of a day would continue to take off the bombardment of the San Francisco Trade Harbor for the third time!

May 26.

9:40 am.

Outside the San Francisco Trading Harbour, the wind direction is 24° eastward, the wind is level 2, the sky is cloudy and rainless, it is a good day for shooting...

With a "bang", the Gogol's main gun was fired. This time, no matter what precise strikes, he took a look and fell directly into a cluster of merchant ships!

The shells fell and a French merchant ship was in trouble immediately!

10:15.

Another "bang" sound, and the main gun of the Quedxia Leyan was also fired. This time, the winning bid was an Italian merchant ship.

Two guns hit two merchant ships with a hit rate of 100%. This is not that Benson's subordinates can master the artillery of battleships skillfully, but that those merchant ships gathered too closely. As long as the shells landed in this area, a merchant ship would inevitably be unlucky to be shot!

It was the bombardment that was undeclared and the main gun that was strong and powerful. This time, Benson's fleet angered the heavyweight maritime merchants!!

France, this is a traditional power in the European continent that is known as the invincible army. What is strange is that the misfortune French merchant ship owner seemed very restrained. He did not cry like the Indonesian merchant ship owner who was shelled the day before yesterday. He maintained his demeanor. He just wanted to pass a phone call and dialed, and said a few words to the other side: "Is the embassy and consulate? I am Wangre, my merchant ship was bombed just now, yes, it is Benson's fleet... I ask the US government to explain this immediately and give twice the compensation. Otherwise, I suggest France impose economic sanctions on the United States!"

French maritime merchants are so arrogant, Italian maritime merchants are not outdone. The merchant ship owner named Pacini directly found Stevenson, "Mayor, you see, my ship has been bombed, and I don't ask you to hand over the Earl of the North Sea now. I only ask you to mobilize the army, mobilize warships, and drive this fleet that is as arrogant as medieval as it is to drive me out of San Francisco! Restore the route to smoothness! Otherwise, I would suggest that all cities in my country interrupt the ocean trade with you San Francisco indefinitely!"

Both are big names, one wants to impose sanctions, and the other wants to interrupt communication. Needless to say, after this shelling, the level of attention has risen to a new level: it has already developed from sensational news across the United States to major events that shocked the international community!

With the rapid action of reporters specially arranged by Long Hao, this may gradually become a reality. Benson's third bombardment lasted for two hours and nine minutes, and a total of five shells were fired. Three merchant ships were injured and one merchant ship was sunk. The whole process was photographed by the desperate reporters, and then the Jianqu was fired through the telegram line to Europe!

(Well, this era. Europe is equal to the international community.)

The US Navy's gunboats destroyed European merchant ships. Once such news is released, it will definitely attract the attention of all countries on that continent!!

Yes, the Dutch Indonesian merchant ships were sunk on the 24th, and their influence was not great enough. But today, European merchant ships, including France, were injured. Now, the crimes of accusing the Benson fleet of provoking international disputes have been collected!

Benson may not know what serious mistake he made. Or for some reason, even if he knew that it might have caused Europe to be angry, he would not care!

Benson 'shoulder' and fired a flag after the bombardment: "San Francisco, if you still insist on protecting the Earl of North Sea, then such bombardment will be carried out once a day, first the merchant ships in the harbor, and wait three days later. It's the dock, and in three days, it's the city of San Francisco! You have enough time to consider and see if you must choose to be buried with the Earl of North Sea!"

Long Hao's response to such a trembling flag verb was rich: "Don't worry, all ship owners who suffered losses. Since it was because of my Long Hao, the shelling was caused, then I solemnly promise that before this arrogant fleet retreated, all the losses caused by the shelling will be borne by me!"

Long Hao's promise is not a red mouth and white teeth, but a real confidence. His confidence is a huge check issued by Rothschild Bank with a maximum limit of £30 million! With this check as a guarantee, I believe that even the picky foreign maritime merchants will be relieved and withdraw to downtown San Francisco with peace of mind. Or simply take the train and stay away... There is no need to care whether their merchant ship has been bombed, anyway, everything will be compensated by the Earl of North Sea.

When Long Hao did this, Lelan, Stanford and others didn't understand: Why did Long Hao personally pay for the losses caused by the bombing?

Isn’t it too a big mistake to take on such a big burden?

Long Hao explained that this is not the time to care about this little money. The Benson fleet bombarded San Francisco through the trans-ocean telegraph line has become a major event of international attention. San Francisco will become the focus of the world. Each of our performance will be put under a magnifying glass to study, and the impact of every move will double! The generous expression I show at this time, the sympathy and political bonuses I get in exchange for are by no means reflected in the value of this little money itself!

At that time, I will stand on the commanding heights of morality and be sympathized by the whole world. Many things that are difficult to do in normal times will be taken to smoothly carry out!

Lilan, Stanford and others didn't know Long Hao's arrangements. After listening to the explanation, although they still had doubts in their hearts, they were no longer able to persuade him.

But when they turned around, they thought that Benson had only six battleships in total, and the shells stored on them were not infinite. According to his bombings of only about 5 rounds a day, even if it lasted for three days, the number of merchant ships that were blown up was limited and the compensation was limited.

After Long Hao's "full compensation" statement was made, under the strong promotion of municipal officials such as Stevenson and De Jong Wade, the messenger hosted by De Jong Wade, the whole United States was telegraphed in a short time, and the news was also transmitted to the European continent through the trans-ocean telegraph line.

It can be imagined that as Long Hao expected, his approach will attract many attention and earn extra points for him in this bombardment crisis!

In fact, affected by this "full compensation" statement, the US stock market also changed subtly in the following days: because of Long Hao's kindness and the scary huge £30 million check, the five major exchanges (San Francisco took this opportunity to be boxed in advance), the stock price of the Earl sector stocks barely stopped falling, and under the operation of those who are interested, it even seemed that there was still a trend of rising!

Of course, this rebound will not be allowed by financial consortiums such as DuPont. Anyway, at least in a short period of time, it will not cause a huge surge that no one expected like on the 23rd and 24th...

Well, let’s not mention the reactions of the US stock market and countries around the world to this major event, but we will focus on San Francisco.

After all, this is the main battlefield and the key to determining the development direction of this major event.

Before the assistance from Europe and the White House that Old Stevenson and their extremely anticipated was yet to come, on May 27 and 28, Benson fulfilled his promise and led six battleships to bombard the harbor again, shooting 12 times in total, resulting in the injury of five ships and sinking three ships.

Among the sunken ships, one of them is one of Long Hao’s three modified training ships!

At this time, the only things that docked in the commercial port were ocean-going merchant ships from various countries and... Long Hao's four warships were blocked from their seaports, and they were living targets in their respective berths. No matter how poor the American sailors under Benson's gunfire business capabilities were, they could still hit dead mice and sank some ships.
