March 27, 1879, eight in the morning, Barcelona Stock Exchange.
It was originally just an ordinary day, but at this moment, the Barcelona Stock Exchange was already packed with people.
The reason these investors came to the stock exchange early in the morning was naturally the Spanish Government's announcement of a brand-new third five-year development plan yesterday.
Although the government's development plan was not detailed, it did mention construction in the industrial and railway sectors. Investors had anticipated this, and the reason they came to the stock exchange early was precisely to buy shares of the Spanish Railway Company.
Unlike other European countries, Spain was not severely troubled by the economic crisis, which also gave Spanish investors great confidence in the stock market.
