In front of the gate of the Lion Bathroom, the chief senator Gayus waved his hand and said to his servants: "Go and go to the market to take a look." After that, he squeezed his bloated and fat body into the carriage, which slowly walked towards the market surrounded by servants.

When they arrived at Moon Road, where the market was located, they looked around for the shop opened by the butler of Augustus, who was specially responsible for collecting bonds. At this time, Gayus, who was sitting in the carriage, suddenly heard someone shouting loudly: "Where to collect bonds at high prices, collect bonds at treasury bonds! It's sixteen points higher than the face value!"

Gayus was shocked, and he had a quick calculation. In this way, the two hundred gold bond he bought less than a week ago is now worth 232 gold. In other words, in just a few days, he earned 32 gold coins with two hundred principals. In fact, 32 gold coins, or even 200 gold coins, were a drop in the bucket for him. But this high profit margin shocked him.

He then jumped out of the carriage and called the man who was shouting, "Do you really want to collect bonds?"

The man who collected bonds at 16 points higher than the face value was naturally Chen Bao's subordinate. He saw Gayus's posture and knew that the other party was not an ordinary person. He quickly said respectfully: "This boss, we are naturally collecting bonds sincerely. Otherwise, who would be so bored that he shouted on the street in the sun? Does the boss have the goods?"

Gayus squinted and continued to ask, "Sixteen points higher than the face value? Can a bond of 100 gold be exchanged for 116 gold coins?"

"That is, bonds with a total face value of 100 can be sold for 116 gold coins. Boss, how much do you have? How much do you offer? We are all willing to collect them!"

Gayus licked his lips with his tongue and ordered to the follower beside him: "Go quickly and get the two hundred gold bonds in your family... It's not just about taking one hundred golds."

Just as the follower was about to turn around and leave, a casual man who recognized Gayus on the street shouted: "Sir Gayus, I advise you not to sell it. Do you know that the price of the bond today is soaring like a falcon. I think it is possible that if this situation continues, it will rise to fifty points tomorrow."

Gayus said, ignoring the idle man at all, but continued to urge his follower to say, "Why don't you go quickly?" But he thought in his heart that I still care about these money? I just want to see if this bond can really be so popular.

Gayus's two servants ran to the mansion like flying. In less than half an hour, they returned. Gayus took the stack of bonds worth one hundred gold from them, held them in his hand and shook them, saying, "This product with a denomination of one hundred gold is worth one hundred and sixteen gold, one hand delivered to the other hand."

At this time, Chen Bao's men also raised the money from his partner, spread sacks on the street without saying a word, and then took out a large handful of gold coins and counted them on the sacks in front of Gayus. Gayus saw that he counted 116 and handed them to himself.

Just as Gayus took the money, the bonds had not been handed out, he heard someone beside him shouting: "Boss, wait, we will collect them at 18 o'clock!" At the same time, there were shouts from faraway places: "Bonds are collected, bonds are collected at a high price, and the price has risen to 18 o'clock above the face value!"

Gayus turned his head and saw a man with a sweaty face hurriedly saying to him: "Boss, why not sell it to us, we can collect it at 18 points! Why don't you ask for a few less gold coins?"

It turned out that after Augustus's housekeeper received the letter, he raised the price by two points again.

The subordinate of Chen Bao said to Gayus: "Any business requires credit. You have obtained the boss's money. Can you break the contract for these two gold coins?"

Gayus shook the fat on his face and laughed, "Of course, do you think I care about these people? Actually, I just want to see if this bond is really so rare." After that, he handed over the stack of Roman Empire bonds in his hand to Chen Bao's hands. The other party carefully ordered the stack of bonds, and carefully took each one after checking the authenticity of the fake one. Gayus curled his lips disdainfully and said, "No need to worry, I, Gayus, can I give you fake one hundred gold?" After that, he took his followers and went home with a swagger.

...

In the restaurant, a man continued to report to Chen Bao: "Reporting to the shopkeeper, the price of the bond has been raised to 18 points by the other party. And a big order just appeared, and someone paid 100 gold at a price of 16 points at a time. According to the young people, this person is the chief senator Gayus of the Senate."

Chen Bao nodded and said, "How many gold coins are left so far today?"

The man replied: "If you go back to the shopkeeper, in addition to the 100 gold that we collected at 16 points, we also collected a few small orders at 12 points and 16 points respectively. Now we have 450 hardware left in gold coins."

Chen Bao pondered for a few more breaths and said, "Since there are big orders and some people have started to ship goods one after another, we will slow down and not increase the price. But we still have to continue to close at 16 points in a high profile, and this posture should be put forward! In addition, based on their purchase price of 18 points, we will first issue a 300-yuan coupon and get some funds back. Be careful, and do not scare them, so as not to alarm them."

"Abide by the order!"

...

Auguste's butler paced anxiously in the inner room behind the store. Today, in just half a day, the price of the bond market soared to eighteen points. If he had to continue at this rate, he didn't know how high the price could rise. Even if he was following Auguste's instructions, if things were really screwed up, it was still hard to say that he would be exempted from Auguste's punishment.

Finally, it was time for his subordinates to report the market to him on time. When the person who conveyed the message came in, Housekeeper Auguste asked hurriedly: "How is it, are they still continuing to increase the price?"

"Reporting to the head of the report, although they were still clamoring to collect in the market, they did not raise the price any further. Of course, with our price pressure, they could not receive the goods."

After hearing this, the housekeeper suddenly felt much more relaxed and laughed: "They have limited funds. No matter how high the price is, they can no longer afford it." After that, he put away his smile and said: "So, are we still going well in receiving the goods now? How much goods have we collected?"

"If we go back to the housekeeper, we have received eighty or ninety gold bonds before we increase the price by eighteen points. Then we have received nearly two hundred gold bonds so far."

The housekeeper nodded with satisfaction and said, "Very good, I think as long as we keep it, we will receive two thousand gold goods today."
