War of Faith (追风者)

Let's have a toast, too.

Yes.

We're all contributing to the country.

Stop arguing! Stop arguing!

Wei,

do you have any insider information?

Yeah, Wei, tell us.

Yes, I do.

But... I can't tell you the details.

Come, tell us.

What can't you tell us about?

You don't have to speak.

You just have to nod or shake your head.

Yes, that's right!

Should we follow suit this time?

Yes, yes, tell us.

Great!

But, but...

You guys can buy,

but you must buy within your means.

You can't buy them all,

and especially not if you are going to be borrowing money.

Okay.

Wen, do you hear me?

Don't worry, Wei.

Yes, don't worry.

Thank you, Wei.

We haven't done this in a long time.

We'll do something big this time.

Yes.

If we make money this time,

I'll get a new rickshaw first.

Wen, you still need to get a new wife.

Ms. Zhou.

He doesn't even have an old one. How can he get a new one?

When he makes money,

you can count on me

to find him a wife.

Please don't, Hao.

Your sister eats 1kg of rice at each meal.

I can't afford it.

Are you talking back to me?

Doggie.

Doggie.

I heard you encouraged everyone to buy those bills.

You want to buy it too?

No, I won't buy it.

You'd better not too.

Don't encourage them to buy it either.

Otherwise, you'll be blamed.

Why would I?

My father and I have been traveling for so many years.

Those treasury bills, government bonds, and stocks,

are just different ways to swindle

people's money.

It's different this time.

What's so different about this time?

It's the same every time.

There's nothing new under the sun.

Don't talk nonsense if you don't understand.

This time, we are setting up treasury bills to boost the economy.

It's a major policy initiative of the Party and the State.

Even if you don't support it, don't oppose it,

and don't hold me back.

You don't know what's good for you.

Fine. When you go bankrupt,

don't say I didn't remind you.

I will be richer than you even if I go bankrupt.

Boss, this is good. Look, the price has risen!

Young man, look, the price is rising so well.

Do you want to buy some more?

No.

It's a pity if you don't buy more.

It went up again!

You see how well they're doing?

Mr. Liu,

How's the transaction volume today?

Today's transaction volume is huge.

Okay, go get busy.

Okay.

Not bad.

The issuance of treasury bills by the Treasury Department

is going better than I expected.

It shows that the people

have strong confidence in our government.

If we succeed this time,

we won't need to worry about money

when we want to build infrastructure in the future.

Sir.

Sir, it's Ruolai.

Hello, Ruolai.

Sir.

There were some surprises at the exchange today.

Some has been dumping their treasury bills,

and the transaction volume is not small.

I am wondering if it could be a bank?

That's impossible.

They don't have the guts.

The Treasury Department has clearly stated that

banks are not authorized to trade mortgaged treasury bills.

Then, I guess

they are not optimistic about the treasury bills.

Hence, they are trying to sell them at a higher price, and buy them back at a lower price.

In this way,

they can make profits of more than 10 percent.

Don't tell anyone about this just yet.

Yes.

Some people's appetites are so big that

they're not afraid to die.

Sir, what happened?

Some people are going to go bankrupt.

Cheers, cheers!

Come on.

Sit down.

Li,

I've dumped almost all of

my treasury bills. What about you?

I've sold all of mine too,

I didn't expect

these people out there to be so crazy now.

They will buy as much as you can throw at them.

This is totally different from what we initially thought.

They thought someone is overseeing the game,

and they all want to have a piece of the action.

In fact, the real dealer has withdrawn long ago.

Once the news is released, it will collapse instantly.

At that time, we can then buy it back.

We'll have at least more than 10 percent in profit.

Perhaps, it could even reach 30 percent.

Everyone,

listen to me.

Don't forget the country when you make money.

Donate what you have to.

Otherwise, the people at Nanjing

will be really embarrassed.

Of course.

We will donate what we can.

How about I donate 5,000 silver dollars?

5,000?

Are you trying to just dismiss the beggars?

I'll donate 8,000.

I'll donate 8,000 too.

I'll donate 10,000 then.

I'll donate 15,000.

Mr. Yu,

we've bought so many.

When will we dump them away?

It won't end up decaying in your hands, will it?

What?

You still have no confidence in me, Mr. Kang?

Not really.

It's just that...

those banks are dumping them.

I feel

pretty insecure about it.

Mr. Kang.

Aren't you well-informed?

You should go ask around

what's Treasury Department's stance regarding this matter.

Mr. Kang.

Mr. Kang.

I got the news.

A few days ago at an in-house cocktail party,

Mr. Kong personally revealed that

the Treasury Department will recall the treasury bills in advance.

Are you sure?

The senior officials from the Treasury Department have acquiesced.

This matter is a done deal.

It means we can still make money if we buy it now.

This news will spread to the people soon.

By then,

the retail investors will be crazier than they are now.

Nice.

You may leave.

Great! Wonderful!

That's wonderful!

Old man, why are you still up?

Ms. Zhou.

How much did you earn?

That's none of your business.

Ms. Zhou.

You're the best. Tell me, please.

Don't worry.

When I make a lot of money,

you...

this old man,

and all of them,

I'll give all of you

20% off the rent. Are you happy?

Really?

That would make me very happy.

Today,

at the stock exchange,

I heard news from Nanjing.

It is said that the Treasury Department

wants to recall the treasury bills early.

What do you mean?

What does that mean?

It means the price will rise, and rise drastically.

If this news is true,
