Since the morning, the news has spread, and the number of people who have gone to Suzhou Qianzhuang to withdraw money has exceeded 2,000, and ten times this number are the people who eat melons!

That's right, it's to see the lively.

Because someone told them that they went to the front of the money village to see the excitement, and they could also lead the two hemp balls, some beggars, and idle teenagers followed the old people, so they all came over.

In fact, there is no need to make a hemp group, there will be a lot of people who are interested, in an era of lack of entertainment, there are thousands of people who watch the excitement, run on the bank, this kind of groundbreaking, the first big drama, how can there be a lack of people to watch the excitement!

In all directions, like a tide, it surrounds Suzhou Qianzhuang, black and pressing, full of people, endless!

Zhu Yuanzhang chose a three-story teahouse, climbed up and looked out, His Majesty the Emperor's face became more and more gloomy, as if he could fall hail.

"It's horrible!"

Zhu Yuanzhang muttered to himself, he had seen the world, when the Yuan court forcibly conscripted the people and built the Yellow River, the result was to dig out the one-eyed stone man, provoke millions of red scarves in the world, and the people who revolted were like a torrent rolling and unstoppable.

Zhu Yuanzhang constantly reminded himself with the uprising at the end of the Yuan Dynasty that he must take care of the people and let the people have channels to relieve their grievances.

Why? Isn't he just worried that one day, hundreds of people will rise up and rebel against his old Zhu family?

But at this moment, Zhu Yuanzhang discovered something more terrible than the uprising at the end of the Yuan Dynasty.

You must know how many years of hard work it took for the Ming Sect to spread doctrines and accumulate contacts, and then continued to build river embankments.

Today's Suzhou, there is nothing, the eyes are full of prosperous commerce, prosperous trading, almost everyone is smiling, looking like a peaceful and prosperous world.

But a little wind and grass in the bank immediately made people go to the run as if they were enchanted.

Even if I made a holy decree, it wouldn't have this effect

"Prince, the power of money is so terrifying, have you seen it?"

Zhu Biao's face was even more ugly, "Father, the water can carry a boat or overturn a boat, the people under your feet are not a surging flood, the words of the ancients are not true!" This bank, like a flood beast, should indeed remain in the hands of the royal family, and cannot be handed over to ordinary people. In this way, Liu Chun is indeed loyal and knows that the overall situation is the most important. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Zhu Biao, at this time, you still don't forget to speak for that kid, is he loyal? No, he didn't dare! If he dares to get involved in the bank and share the shares, I can immediately dismantle him, and there is no politeness.

Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a moment and immediately said: "After going back this time, we must list the matter of maintaining the stability of the Royal Bank as an ancestral motto, especially those deposited banks, no one can act rashly, otherwise they will be severely punished." If there are descendants of the Zhu family, if they make a mistake, they will be removed from the family tree! ”

Lao Zhu used the most severe means, with this ancestral precept, the emperor in the future, whoever dares to violate the law, will face the danger of losing the qualifications of the descendants of the Zhu family, even the old Zhu family is not anymore, how can he be the emperor?

This run, from the very beginning, forced Lao Zhu to set the most severe ancestral training.

The next development will not disappoint Zhu Yuanzhang.

In terms of Suzhou Qianzhuang, the response can be called fast, and several courtiers who sit in the town have been working in the silver number for a long time, and they have also encountered the situation of running on the door at the same time.

They know very well that at this time, it is advisable to be sparse and not blocked, and the more you don't exchange the people, the more serious the panic will be, so they decisively ordered to open twice the window and deal with the people who come to the door at the same time.

Moreover, the gang took out the silver from the treasury, box after box, and placed it behind the counter fence so that the people could see it with their own eyes.

"Folks, old and young masters, rest assured. Our proprietors are all reputable and valuable people, who have been in Suzhou for several lifetimes, drinking the same river water and eating the same bowl of rice with everyone. Whoever has no heart will not hack everyone's money! Please rest assured, no matter what, it will not be short for everyone. If you have to take money, you can do it. But if the time is not enough, there will be no interest, and the principal can only be returned, please understand! ”

"Yes, everyone keeps the money in the bank, not only is it safe, but it can also have interest, what a good thing, don't listen to rumors, let alone be instigated by traitors, I can tell you that the wreck has nothing to do with the money bank, and some people spread rumors, intending to slander and slander our Suzhou money bank. Folks, how much convenience does Qianzhuang provide to the big guys, you can't be stupid......"

While asking the cabinet to exchange for silver, these worshippers ran into the middle of the crowd and explained in every way.

At first, it didn't work at all, and the people just wanted to get money out, without interest, and it would be good to get the principal back.

But gradually by noon, some people were also tired, and the panic eased a little, and the people in front of them could get their money, and they had nothing to worry about.

And just like that, people began to disperse in the crowd.

Several courtiers touched their foreheads, all of them were sweaty, the clothes on their bodies were wet and dry, and their throats were smoking, almost dying.

A few people returned to the cabinet room, picked up the tea, and before they could drink it, at this time, a hundred households in Suzhou Mansion came with people.

"Who is the head of the money bank, come out to talk!"

A few courtiers didn't bother to drink water, so they came out.

"Master Jun, what's the matter?"

"What's the matter? This morning, the 300,000 taels of silver that were taken away, why was it not in the right condition? ”

"What?" The head of the court, surnamed Tong, who was the oldest and most experienced, immediately shook his head, "Impossible, absolutely impossible, our silver is in better condition than official silver, and you have already taken it away, why are you still looking for trouble?" ”

Baihu suddenly laughed loudly, "What a big breath, you dare to coax the government and say that we are here to find trouble, it's really the opposite!" Come, take him away, and go to the government to verify the problem of the silver. ”

The soldiers on duty, regardless of the three, seven, twenty-one, and the people, were taken away.

In front of a group of depositors, the court will be escorted away!

This is a bombshell, blowing everyone up in a dark sky and not enough heads...... What do you mean? The silver deposit in Suzhou Mansion is not in good condition?

Qian Zhuang is too bold, and even the government dares to coax him, let alone them as ordinary people.

What are you waiting for, it's true to hurry up and withdraw the money.

The people who had already planned to leave came up again, and there were even more than just now.

The rest of the courtiers wanted to explain, but the people didn't listen at all, everyone was arrested, and what else did they tell us, we didn't listen to anything, hurry up and exchange it!

"First lure the enemy out, and then strike hard!"

Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but stretch out his thumb and exclaimed: "Prince, have you opened your eyes?" The fighting method in front of you is not much worse than the real battlefield! ”

Zhu Biao nodded in agreement, but also smiled: "Father, if Liu Chun's command is decided, it seems that the overall situation has been decided!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head, "Not necessarily, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, these businessmen in Suzhou must have a backhand, they will definitely ......" A figure flashed in front of Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes, the corners of Lao Zhu's mouth curved upward, and he secretly said in his heart: "If you let a young man play between applause with this ability, then you will be disappointed that I care so much, and you will also be in vain!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang continued to watch the play, and he even had a feeling that he had returned to the battlefield, surrounded by shouts and killings, mountains of corpses and a sea of blood!

The small city of Suzhou made Zhu Yuanzhang so emotional, I have to say, it was really wonderful!

During the day's run, Suzhou Qianzhuang lost more than 400,000 taels, plus the 300,000 taels that were withdrawn at one time in the morning, and one-fifth of the silver in the treasury was lost at once. If the run is still like this, they won't be able to hold it for even ten days.

More than a dozen businessmen announced to the public overnight that they each took out their family wealth and scraped together 500,000 taels and injected it into the money bank to stabilize the overall situation.

Not only did these merchants take the money, but they also let the wagons carrying the money deliberately pass through the bustling city, in order to tell everyone that they had accumulated enough money and did not worry about a run at all.

"Prince, what do you think Liu Chun's kid will do?" In the second half of the night, Zhu Yuanzhang had not rested, and people kept sending news.

Obviously, tomorrow is a very critical day, if the run continues, the money bank may not be able to hold on, if it is suppressed, it may be able to escape the catastrophe.

Zhu Biao scratched his head, "Father, the sons really don't understand, Liu Chun won't continue to arrest people, right?" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang chuckled: "Not necessarily, that kid is so treacherous, how can he use the same trick continuously?" It's just that I can't figure it out, so I have to come and take a look. ”

While they were talking, a guard hurried in.

"Your Majesty, I just got the news that someone was in the alley and found the box of the money bank, which contained stones!"

"Stones?"

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhu Biao looked at each other, what kind of routine is this?

Zhu Yuanzhang paced back and forth, muttering to himself: "Could it be that the kid wants to tell the people that the money in the bank is empty?" Fill up with bricks? ”

"Father, we'll see you tomorrow, why don't you rest first!" Zhu Biao said with a sigh.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't feel sleepy at all, "This battle is so interesting, I've never seen it before." Let's go see what the kid is up to! ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's belligerent blood in his bones was ignited, and he was eager to know how to fight this battle!
