Chapter 71: Rubber hazards

By the end of May, the price of rubber was also rising steadily, reaching 11 shillings per pound. Now all rubber speculators believe that the price of rubber will reach the historic high of one pound for one pound of rubber. The stock price of Willis has also reached a high of 1,500 taels, but there is no cash transaction in Shanghai. Anyone with vision knows that this is a prelude to the bursting of the bubble.

Inside the Willis building, the three of Sterry are also preparing to retreat.

"Let us wait for a while, and plan to let us leave in June." Stockell said the instructions from the country.

"Now that we have done everything we should do, and the money has been transferred, why not let us evacuate." Felix said his dissatisfaction, now if people know the status of Willis, everyone will tear up They, of course he felt scared in the face of such a situation.

"The message sent said that we need to cooperate with a domestic and American action." Stockell explained.

"We will be in danger if we stay one more day now. In the face of this situation, can't you tell the boss about Stocker."

"Okay, Felix, we are safe now. The dividends have only been issued soon, and there will be no problem persisting for two months." Faced with Felix's complaint, Sterry said calmly.

"Well, I am impatient." After understanding that both of them are willing to cooperate, Felix can only agree.

After the three people discussed, they continued to do the company's daily work until Stolke received a telegram that read: Your nephew was born weighing 6.12 pounds, and we plan to celebrate for him tomorrow.

Stolk took the message in his hand and hurried to Sterry's office, intending to tell him the good news.

"Stry, I have received the news." Stocker pushed the door and said, only to see Zhang Agou in Sterry's office.

"You can do this about Zhang." Seeing Stocker's face a little deliberately stern, Sterry hurriedly sent away Zhang Agou.

"Good boss." Zhang Agou still looks like a dog, and greeted him when he passed Stocker. "Goodbye Mr. Stocker."

"Goodbye Zhang."

After answering Zhang Agou, Stocker closed the door and walked to the front of Sterry and whispered to him. "There is news from above. They released the news on June 12, let us go the next day."

"There are still 10 days left, enough for us to prepare." Sterry said.

"Can this really work?" Stockell asked.

"Otherwise, why should we promote an illiterate poor to the present height. He has enjoyed the status, money, reputation and woman that he could not have before, and now it is time for him to return everything."

It was obvious that they were talking about Zhang Agou, who had just walked out, and a good loyal dogleg was sold by the owner.

In the next few days, the three of them each found reasons to leave and let Zhang Agou watch the company's situation. This made Zhang Agou overjoyed, thinking that he was very close to Taipan.

On June 12, in Sterry’s office, the three of them were talking about their final departure route.

"We went out to meet at the old sailor bar by the pier, and the liner at 7 o'clock in the evening went to the United States and transferred back to Romania." Stolk said of the route arrangement.

"Where are the others?" Felix asked Stocker.

"I don't know, don't inquire about Felix." Stolk warned him.

After hearing Stolk's words, Felix shook his head and waved his hand to indicate that he would not ask.

"Get ready to go, I will leave at last." Sterry said.

Soon Felix and Stolk left first, and Sterry called Zhang Agou into the office.

"Zhang, you have done a great job recently, I am very pleased."

"This is the result of your cultivation, the boss." Zhang Agou, who heard Sterry's praise, said with a flattering smile.

"I now have the idea of ​​commissioning you as a manager, but it depends on your recent performance."

Zhang Agou felt that he was dreaming. Many people were struggling to pursue the big class beckoning to himself, and quickly talked about it after reacting. "Thanks to the boss for the promotion, I will definitely work hard."

Looking at Zhang Agou who was still daydreaming in front of him, Sterry suddenly felt a little sour in his nose.

"Zhang doesn't need to show his attitude anymore. I have an appointment with a beautiful lady for dinner. Now the company is up to you. What important things are waiting for me to go to work tomorrow." After saying that Sterry tidyed up his clothes, it seemed true It's the same as going on a date.

"Good boss, I will take good care of these employees and will not let them be lazy."

Then Sterry got in his car and drove all the way to the Old Sailor's Bar. In a secret room, he saw two people who had put on makeup.

"Hurry up and finish our makeup, we are ready to take the boat." After a while, three working-class people walked out of the bar and listened to them and planned to leave Shanghai to find opportunities in the United States. These three people got on the angel liner. The liner started on time at 7 o'clock and left with three successful speculators.

News spread throughout Shanghai the next morning. American and European automakers planned to abandon rubber tires because the current price of rubber made them unaffordable In the afternoon, a more sensational news spread. After coming out, Shanghai’s largest rubber company, Willis’ boss and manager disappeared.

This news shocked everyone. Whether it was renting a foreign bank or a Chinese bank, they were looking for the three of Sterry. Finally, they found Sterry's car at a nearby dock, which ignited everyone's anger. The crowd with Willis stock rushed into the building, smashing everything they saw.

Zhang Agou, who has always been in the heart of Sterry, was taken to the patrol room and asked about the whereabouts of Sterry's three people. Later, news came out that Zhang Agou committed suicide in the cell in fear of crime.

The news of the flight of the Sterley roll money made all rubber stocks fall loudly. There are people selling rubber stocks everywhere in the stock market. Unfortunately, no one is coming to take over the rubber stocks now. The stock price immediately fell by less than half within a day. Willis stocks have become a piece of waste paper. Now many people who have invested their lives are totally unable to accept this news. Some people have gone crazy and some have committed suicide. Banks have also gone bankrupt. For a while, Shanghai entered the Great Depression.

The great success in Romania is also calculating this gain. A staff member who counted the results of the battle was sending the results to Carust, the person in charge of the operation.

"After our calculations, we invested 2.07 million pounds this time, and actually invested 1.8 million pounds. The initial cost was 380,000 pounds, and the mid-term publicity costs were 100,000 pounds. In the end, we received a total of 4.06 million pounds of funds, after deducting the cost. After that, we made a profit of 2.26 million pounds, which can be said to be a great success."

"After giving me this sub-statement, the others can be destroyed." Carust told the staff member.

"Ok"

Carust took the report in his hand and planned to report the results to Crown Prince Edel.
