Blackstone Code Chapter 187: Black October [middle, lower and lower]

At 2:30 in the evening, the train finally stopped slowly outside the central train station in Bupen, and as a few people came out of the station, Lynch took a deep breath.

There is a smell in the dirty air that makes every cell excited. This is the smell of a big city!

In the city of Sabine, after eight o'clock in the evening, the streets are dark and almost nothing can be seen. Even in a better area, the dim street lights make people feel terrified.

Except for a few central neighborhoods, which are brightly lit all night, most areas are silent after dark.

But look here, the whole city seems to be shining brightly, and it is not ruled out that some places are also very dark, but the sky in the center of the city in the distance is like day.

"Sir, do you want to use a taxi?", the taxi driver who was waiting outside the station took the initiative to ask.

Lynch glanced at him and couldn't help laughing. Big cities are just different from small cities, even the cabbies dress differently.

Taxi drivers in Sabine do not have any uniform clothing accessories. They only need to pay for an operating license from the taxi management company to start operating taxis.

No one gives them any hard requirements, let alone clothing requirements, so taking a taxi in Sabine City, you can always see a lot of strangely dressed drivers, especially in summer.

A driver is said to have been complained by a passenger for not wearing trousers and asked the driver and management company to compensate her for mental damage, yes, a female passenger who felt that she was insulted in some sense.

Look here, the taxi drivers look reassuring in their black uniforms, big-brimmed hats, and white gloves.

Lynch nodded and opened the car door for Vila.

Lynch didn't bring anything to salute, but Vera brought a suitcase. After the two got into the car, Lynch reported an address, the Bupen Hotel, and the taxi driver immediately started the vehicle.

The Bupen Hotel is one of the best hotels in Bupen. It is mainly used to receive some important dignitaries and celebrities. It has also received some foreign guests. Many people think that as long as they live in Bupen Hotel The people in the hotel must be people with status.

This stereotype persists to this day, and even the taxi driver's attitude changed a little when he heard that Lynch was going to stay at the Bupen Hotel.

After about 20 minutes of driving, the whole street had turned from dark to bright. Looking at the bustling street outside the car window, Vila was a little curious, "Is the security here good?"

Lynch looked at the driver, "Maybe Mr. Driver knows something."

After hearing this, the driver put a free hand to straighten his hat. He had been holding back for ten or twenty minutes without speaking, which almost made him breathless. Now he is finally comfortable. "Sir, ma'am, the former Bu Paine was safe, but recently..."

Looking through the rearview mirror, Lynch saw the awe-inspiring expression on his face, "There are more people wandering around on the streets. During this time, there are many robbery cases every day. It was said that he died a few days ago. people."

"If it is not necessary, I suggest that you two should not go out at night."

After hearing this, Wei La felt a little emotional, "I didn't expect it to be the same everywhere!"

The driver seemed to sigh with emotion, "It's getting harder and harder now, whether it's here or anywhere else, it's really the same everywhere!"

The taxi driver is a very talkative person. Under Lynch's questioning, he talked about some recent news about Bopeng that has not been known to the outside world, such as those bond victims from all over the country.

The victims would gather and demonstrate outside the city hall, the stock exchange and some financial companies, which looked very lively.

While speaking, the car stopped outside the splendid Bupen Hotel, and the doorman immediately opened the door, opened the luggage compartment, and took out the salute for the passengers.

After paying the fare and a tip, Lynch said goodbye to the taxi driver and entered the hotel gate. Looking at the backs of Lynch and Vera, the taxi driver couldn't help but sigh, that's what tolerance.

Some passengers will start picking on the car after getting in the car, and want to reduce the cost of the ride, they will also brag on the car, disrespect the driver, and will not tip. Drivers have seen such people a lot.

There are very few people who take the initiative to tip and say "good night" to themselves with a smile. Maybe these two are big people, and only big people can have such a bearing, maybe this can become him and his colleagues. The topic of bragging.

The next morning, with the help of the hotel's wake-up service, Lynch got up on time. To his surprise, Vila got up earlier than him and was already waiting for him in the lobby.

After the two met and enjoyed a breakfast with Bupen's characteristics at the restaurant, Lynch talked about the main work of Bupen's visit this time.

When Vila heard that he was going to buy bonds, she couldn't help but be surprised, "Are you crazy, those things are waste paper now, did you make a mistake?"

Laughing, Lynch said, "So this is a good time, I can buy these things back at the price of waste paper, and then wait for him to become valuable again."

Vila was stunned for a moment, "How much are you going to spend to buy those bonds?"

Lynch smiled more, "How much? No, no, dear, you misunderstood the word 'acquisition' I just said. I'm going to count the money by the pound."

"Didn't you say it's almost waste paper?" Lynch swallowed the cheese ball in his mouth and clapped his hands, "Then give it a price that matches its positioning!"

Villa's head couldn't keep up with Lynch's thoughts and rhythm at all. She felt that this matter was unlikely to be successful, and the reason was very simple.

No matter how worthless those bonds are, they still have a "denomination". Who knows if they will be able to be cashed again one day in the future, even if there is a one in ten thousand possibility, people are unlikely to really Throw it away like waste paper.

This is also a relatively mainstream idea. Anyway, these bonds are already worthless, so why not keep them in your hands?

If this were an isolated incident, then naturally Lynch would not have done so, and he would have recouped the bonds at a very low price at face value.

But the situation is different now, because the disaster is just beginning, and people have not realized that the two plunges this month are not the end, they are not even the beginning.

After avoiding this topic, Lynch wiped his hands and stood up, "Anyway, let's see the situation first, maybe things may not go as smoothly as I thought."

On Monday, the three major exchanges had not yet opened, and many people gathered outside the door. The crash last Friday made these people lose their previous smiles. They stood outside the door of the exchange with a heavy face. Talking quietly.

The content is nothing more than continue to wait and see, or stop loss in time.

This time everyone was seriously injured. In the face of the stock market crash, whether it was ordinary people or those rich people, they all suffered heavy losses.

Ordinary people may have lost their savings and maybe some loans, while the wealthy have lost their worth in percentage terms.

These people hide a kind of black fear in their hearts, some even tremble slightly. The insignificance and powerlessness of human beings are vividly displayed at this time. In the face of such an obviously man-made disaster, there is nothing to do. .

At nine o'clock, the exchange opened, and traders entered the market first, followed by all investors, all eyes focused on the bulletin board.

At 9:20, the bulletin board began to flip, and pre-market trading began, but everyone's expressions began to change drastically.

Pre-market trading refers to the trading behavior during the non-opening period. This trading behavior will determine the opening price of a stock on the day, and at the same time, it also indicates the general trend of a stock throughout the day to a large extent.

At 9:29, the constantly rolling public signs made the trading floor look like the scene of a memorial service. In the last ten seconds, a stock was delisted, which further exacerbated the pessimistic atmosphere.

At exactly 9:30, almost all traders were frantically selling all the stocks in their agency accounts. Some time ago, a stock that cost 10 yuan a share was 9 yuan and no one wanted it, so it would be 8 yuan. , seven dollars...

As long as someone wants it, no matter how low the price is, it is not impossible to consider it. It only took less than 15 minutes for the Federal Industrial Index and the three major trading indexes to plummet almost like a cliff~IndoMTL.com~ caused by the financial market The shock was far better than the recession of the real economy. Before ten o'clock, everyone in the entire federation had already learned about what happened in Bupen through various channels.

The disaster is coming!

Countless scraps of confetti are everywhere, these stocks have become less than paper, angry traders, investors are completely out of their minds.

The bottomless trend makes people feel more and more fearful. No one knows when the bottom will be hit, and panic selling has formed.

At ten o'clock, the President's Cabinet issued an emergency presidential decree, requiring the three major exchanges to immediately stop trading in order to slow down the irrational panic and concentrated selling.

And the President's Cabinet Press Officer held an emergency press conference, listing some of the wrong things to do, including the federal government's use of some of the reserve funds to tray, to avoid causing a bigger disaster.

Perhaps because the decision of the President and the Cabinet gave investors some confidence, there was no obvious decline after the opening in the afternoon. After a brief period of flatness, the Federal Industrial Index and the three major trading indexes showed a brief rise.

The continued increase in turnover gives people the illusion that everything is really going to get better, and they want to believe it.

However, all of this came to an abrupt end with a violent shock...
