Wu Zhengde said: "Now, ten days have passed, and the main force of the joint fleet from afar will arrive at the war zone at any time... The order was sent to Zhang Mingzhen to camp on the spot first, and he would not advance without the order of the lonely!"

"Yes!" Song An responded and ran out to deploy.

Wu Zheng turned to Chi Erhan and smiled and said, "I know you're itchy... In this way, I'll give you an errand!"

"Young Master told me!"

"If the enemy's joint fleet reaches the battle waters, Zhang Mingzhen and Wang Yilin's navy will fall into a passive position. It's okay to defend the island. It's okay to force the enemy fleet to lose more and win less... But the enemy also dare not go ashore, so I think, you will lead the first army in the city to Dinghai, one is to guard against hostile raids along the coast, and the other is to... If you have the chance, you can immediately take the navy ship to the Dongfan Island to reinforce, so that the enemy will not land on the island!"

Chi Erhan was overjoyed when he heard this, "Don't worry, young master!"

But after thinking about it, Chi Erhan frowned slightly and said, "Young Master, if I lead the First Army to leave Hangzhou Prefecture, there will be only eight thousand soldiers and hundreds of Xiushui militia in the city. If there is an accident...?!"

Wu Zheng smiled and said, "Isn't there still Changlin Wei? What are you afraid of... Are there any established enemies in Hangzhou Prefecture and surrounding areas now... And the imperial court, it would be fine if there is no reinforcement during this national war, but would it still take the initiative to attack?"

Chi Erhan thought about it and felt that it was true that during the National War, if the court dared to attack Hangzhou Prefecture, it would definitely cause resentment from heaven and earth. This is a way out!

"Then I'll set off now... Take care of yourself!"

"Be careful!"

"yes!"

....

Chi Erhan just left, Huang Zongxi and Xi Benzhen came together.

"Report to the prince, Mo Shangshu sent someone to send a message to reorganize the joint meeting of the chamber of commerce in five days... How should we deal with it? Please tell me!"

Wu Zheng was stunned and thought for a while and said, "Is Mo Zhinian here in person, or is there someone else?"

Xi Benzhen glanced at Wu Zheng, "The news said that it is Mo Shangshu's eldest son, and the new Minister of the Ministry of Revenue Mo Chenbo came...!"

Wu Zhengwen laughed and said, "It turns out that the imperial court's Ministry of Revenue has become his Mo family!"

Huang Zongxi and Xi Benzhen didn't know how to respond, so they could only remain silent.

"How many shares are we able to control?" Wu Zheng asked.

Huang Zongxi thought for a moment and said, "When you say that, including 10% of the shares under your name... I'm afraid it's less than 30%, which also includes the shares sold by the prince before."

The shares sold by Wu Zheng are those that are distributed among ordinary people after registration and registration.

Wu Zheng frowned, "So little?"

Huang Zongxi hurriedly said: "It took less than ten days for the prince to hand over the gold and silver to his ministers. In addition, the imperial court opened a shop specializing in the trading of shares in the chamber of commerce in the capital, which made most of the transactions in the north go to the capital... The prince also instructed that the shares we repurchase must not be registered, which directly affected the speed of repurchase... At the same time, it also aroused the dissatisfaction of many people in the market who held the registered...!"

Wu Zheng raised his hand and stopped Huang Zongxi from continuing to say, "I know, it's not important... I just need to speed up the repurchase."

"But only five days left, and the court is also increasing the price to acquire... I am worried that I will not buy back much."

"It's okay." Wu Zheng smiled slightly, "According to your estimates, how many shares will be held in the hands of the court at this time?"

"According to Chen and others, this should be more than 40% more than us..."

"So how much is the stock price now?"

"Due to the rush to buy several parties, the stock price of the Chamber of Commerce has risen rapidly these days... The stock price has reached about ten taels today."

"Good thing!" Wu Zheng smiled, "At least those people who took over the country have received the reward!"

"That's right, this is also the main reason why the people are dissatisfied with the order that the prince's shares cannot be sold within one year!"

"Yes!" Wu Zheng nodded and thought for a while, "If the Gu shares were sold out at the current price... I think they could make a lot of profits, right?"

These words shocked Huang Zongxi and Xi Benzhen.

Huang Zongxi said anxiously: "What does the prince mean? We are buying back shares. It is precisely because of the rush to buy that the stock price has risen rapidly today... If the prince sells in large quantities at this time, it will inevitably trigger another round of rapid decline in the stock price. Although the prince may be able to make a profit at the moment, it can compete with the people for profit... It will inevitably trigger the public's resentment towards the prince. It will not be worth the loss. Please think twice!"

Wu Zheng shook his hand and said, "Gou didn't say he would sell it to the market... Gu means that the parties are buying it at rush, so I'll find a way to sell it directly to those people."

Huang Zongxi and Xi Benzhen looked at each other, but did not understand Wu Zheng's meaning.

Wu Zheng explained: "No matter who they are, they just sell it... But a contract must be entered into in advance, and it is agreed that it will not be sold within two years, otherwise a fine will be imposed!"

Xi Benzhen's heart flashed with inspiration, "What does the prince mean...time difference?"

Wu Zheng smiled and nodded.

Huang Zongxi was puzzled, "But in this way, wouldn't those registered people suffer a loss... Prince, they are the people who are truly loyal to the prince. Besides, seeing the reorganization of the joint meeting is right in front of us, if the prince sells his shares in large quantities, wouldn't our voice in the chamber of commerce be even lower?"

Wu Zheng looked at the two of them, then pointed at Xi Benzhen and said, "Mr. Ning should understand Gu's meaning... Come, explain to Huang Taichong for Gu."

Xi Benzhen bowed to Wu Zheng, "I only have a slight understanding. If I miss the prince's meaning, I would like to ask the prince to take care of him!"

"It's okay, just say it."

Xi Benzhen said to Huang Zongxi, "The prince's meaning may be... the shares held by ordinary people who have been registered and registered can be transferred or sold after the New Year, but the people who took over the prince's shares today will have to be transferred or sold after two years. In this way, ordinary people can have more room for one year than them. Even if they deliberately lower the stock price, they have to actively raise the stock price after their two-year period... Otherwise, they will suffer huge losses!"

Huang Zongxi frowned and said, "That's the reason, but... what if they didn't mean to sell, they just held the shares in their hands and sought control of the Chamber of Commerce?"

Xi Benzhen shook his head, "I can't figure this out for a while, and I have to ask the prince for advice."

Wu Zheng said: "Although there is no evidence to prove that besides the court, who else is taking the brisk and buying shares of the Chamber of Commerce, I think you have realized that the source of financial resources behind these people should be the merchants of various governments... And the shares in our hands are still far from the ones held by the court. In this way, a situation of three parties fighting for control of the joint meeting will inevitably be formed... I don't have the energy to participate in such trivial matters, and I am not sure that I can win the other two parties under the rules. It would be better to retreat to advance and let them fight...!"
