Wei Desheng was so angry naturally because Yuanqi Bank was directly listed in Shanghai without even saying hello, and the Shanghai Money Industry Office was founded in the Qianlong period, nearly a hundred years, but all new money banks in Shanghai must first come to the office to register and join, pay membership dues, and establish interbank rules. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Yuanqi Bank's move is not only to despise the Shanghai Money Industry Office, but also to unify the Shanghai Money Industry Office, so that the Shanghai Money Industry Office will close down like the Guangzhou Bank Association. What made him even more annoyed was that Yuanqi Bank's move was not based on its own strength, but with the help of Yi Zhi's contented official power! It's completely overwhelming.

Listening to the movement here, Deputy Dong Ni Siyuan hurried over, seeing that his face was full of anger, he didn't know where to persuade for a while, and he said with a solemn expression after a while: "The situation of Yan Shikuan, the shopkeeper of Yuanqi Shanghai Branch, has been inquired clearly, this person is the fifth son of Yan Qichang of the Thirteenth Xingtai Bank, and has a close relationship with the big shopkeeper of Yuanqi, Yi Zhi, and has been in Shanghai for two or three years. ”

Yan Shikuan has been in Shanghai for two or three years? Wei Desheng was surprised, raised his head to look at it, and said, "Exactly?" ”

Ni Siyuan nodded and said, "Yan Shikuan is more active in Shanghai money stores, and there are not a few shopkeepers who know him. ”

Yuanqi began to lay out in Shanghai as early as two or three years ago? Wei Desheng sat down slowly, his face was unusually pale, if the other party was in a hurry, with the relationship between the Qianye Office and the guilds and the connections in Shanghai in Liangjiang, he still had room to fight back and resist, if the other party had been planning for a long time, the Qianye Office was afraid that there would be no chance at all, Yuan Qi's strength was well known after all, and it was not at all something that a Shanghai county could contend with, and it seemed that the Shanghai Qianye Office would also follow in the footsteps of the Bank of Guangzhou Mansion - take off the plaque and close the door.

Ni Siyuan walked over slowly and sat down at the bottom, sighed lightly, and then said slowly: "Our Shanghai is just a county seat, it is not worthy of Yuanqi's attention, since Yuanqi can start to take precautions two or three years ago, I am afraid that the plot is Liangjiang, or even the entire southeast, Yuanqi's public listing in Shanghai may be just the beginning of the ......." ”

Seeing that he wanted to speak and stopped, Wei Desheng was silent for a while before he said: "Jing'an has something to say, just say it." ”

Groaning slightly, Ni Siyuan said: "Shanghai is the first place where Yuanqi is publicly listed in Liangjiang, if Yuanqi is committed to Liangjiang, he will definitely not allow us to fight against it, besides, Yi Zhizhi is now Shanghai Daotai, if we try our best to resist, or want to fight against the court, I am afraid there will be no good result." ”

Wei De pretended not to understand, and deliberately asked, ".....What does Jing'an mean?" ”

"Talk to Yi Daoxian." Ni Siyuan said without hesitation: "Since we can't stop Yuanqi from dominating Shanghai's money industry, we should try our best to fight for enough benefits for the local gentry and businessmen. ”

Listening to this, Wei Desheng was silent for a long time, the reason why Yuan Qi was able to quickly unify the Guangdong money industry was through the manipulation of the tea market and the raw silk market, and the Guangdong money houses that ran on it went bankrupt and closed down, although Shanghai's tea market and raw silk market are not large, but the market for cotton, soybean cakes, sugar, and grain is not small.

"Sir." An attendant reported at the door: "Many directors and shopkeepers came, and they were all arguing ......" ”

Wei Desheng ordered: "Invite all the directors in" As he spoke, he looked at Ni Siyuan and said, "Let's discuss such a big matter together." ”

Qian Ye Gong set up a general director, a deputy director, twelve directors, such a big thing, where can the directors still sit still, after hearing the news, all rushed to the office, as soon as they entered the door, there was a hurry to ask: "Yuan Qi came to Shanghai to open a branch, can you join?" ”

Wei Desheng beckoned: "You guys don't have to be impatient, sit down first." Saying that, he glanced at Ni Siyuan, Ni Siyuan naturally understood that this was to let him open this mouth, and he didn't push it, and the directors sat down, he stood up and cleared his throat, and then said calmly: "Yuanqi Shanghai Branch is publicly listed, and 32 branches are opened at the same time, and you all know in your hearts that people want to unify the ...... of Shanghai's money industry." ”

Before he finished speaking, a steward hurried to the door, glanced at it, and then hesitated: "Chief Executive, someone has come to visit." ”

Wei Desheng had the heart to meet the guest at this time, and immediately said in a deep voice: "I am getting more and more out of eyesight, I don't see it." ”

The steward was a little embarrassed and said, "But ......." ”

"But what?" Wei Desheng glared at him and said, "Didn't you see you at the meeting?" ”

"The chief director should take a look." The steward stepped forward to present the post, Wei Desheng took the name post with some doubts, his face was a little exciting, and the post was written in a big way - Yuan Qi's big shopkeeper was easy to be content, seeing that his face was cloudy, Ni Siyuan couldn't help but ask: "Who is it?" ”

"It's not enough to slap the face, so I came to the door in person." Wei Desheng said angrily, handed over the post as he spoke, and when he looked at the post, Ni Siyuan was also a hand, and handed the post to the director next to him, before he considered it: "Yi Daoxian came to visit as the treasurer of Yuanqi, so let's welcome it." ”

"I don't dare to work hard to welcome you from afar." With the words, Yi Zhicontent, who was dressed in a navy blue robe, walked into the room slowly, glanced at everyone, he bowed his hands, and said, "In Xia Yuanqi, it is easy to be content, you are polite." ”

Listening to his identity, everyone in the room was stunned, who didn't know that Yi Zhizu was now Shanghai Daotai, came back to his senses, and everyone stood up in a panic, all of them were a little dazed, someone put forward and was about to kneel down to salute, Yi Zhizu waved his hand and said with a smile: "No need to see the courtesy, I came today as the treasurer of Yuanqi, please take a seat." ”

Ni Siyuan glanced at Wei Desheng, hurriedly stepped forward, stretched out his hand and politely said, "Yida shopkeeper, please take a seat." ”

This time, Yi Zhizhi was not polite, and the Malaysian Golden Dao sat down on the main seat, stretched out his hand, and said, "Everyone, please take a seat." ”

Ni Siyuan pulled the corner of Wei Desheng's clothes and sat down, and all the directors also sat down hesitantly, those who have merit and fame are a little more comfortable, but those who have no merit are unnatural for the boss, and the businessman's low status is not in front of the county magistrate, let alone in front of Yi Zhixiang, the Daoxian.

Waiting for everyone to sit down, Yi Zhizhi said slowly: "Come to visit today, first of all, I have to say sorry to you, Yuanqi Shanghai branch was opened, I didn't have time to inform the office, it was originally planned to be listed after the seal, the county government posted a notice to recruit 2,000 volunteers, once posted, the market panicked, people panicked, in order to stabilize the people's hearts, they had to rush to open. ”

Can Yuanqi stabilize people's hearts when it is opened? As soon as everyone turned their minds, they reacted, there is indeed this possibility, Yi Zhizhi is content as the big shopkeeper of Yuanqi and Shanghai Daotai, Yuanqi branch opened in Shanghai with great fanfare, and opened a wide branch, which can indeed greatly stabilize people's hearts, especially the hearts of Shanghai businessmen.

Although this reason is sufficient, few people here believe it, no matter how hasty it is, there will not even be time to give a notice, besides, Yuan Qi clearly wants to unify the Shanghai money industry, how can he put the money industry office in his eyes, so to say, it is nothing more than to give everyone in the office a step down.

One by one, they were like mirrors in their hearts, and they were not good at opening their mouths, so they simply didn't speak, and listened quietly to the following, in order to judge the intention of Yi Zhicontentment, of course, everyone understood that Yi Zhishan deigned to come to the door, and it was impossible to just give them a step.

Yi Zhixiang said this, just to ease the atmosphere, as he spoke, he took out a cigar and lit it as if no one was around, and then said slowly: "Yuan Qi is far away in Guangdong, and he has never had much contact with the two rivers, so you may not know much about Yuan Qi." After a pause, he continued: "In short, Yuanqi Bank is only a part of Yuanqi, and Yuanqi also has a silk joint-stock company, a sugar joint-stock company, a railway company, a stock exchange, a machine manufacturing plant, a forging factory, a shipyard, an ammunition factory, a Changhua mine, Yuanqi Yixue, and a large iron and steel plant is under construction.

So far, Yuanqi has more than 2,000 large and small owners, more than 120,000 shopkeepers, technicians, workers and other employees, and the total assets are ......... At this, he smiled, "It's a trade secret." Then, he changed his words, "Why has Yuanqi been able to develop so rapidly in just four or five years?" The fundamental reason is that Yuanqi has always followed a model, a win-win cooperation model! ”

Hearing this, everyone was a little stunned, they knew that Yuanqi was huge, but they didn't expect Yuanqi to be so big, with more than 2,000 owners and 120,000 employees! How big does this have to be? This was completely beyond their imagination, seeing that everyone was silent, Ni Siyuan deliberately eased the atmosphere, and asked with a smile: "What is the win-win cooperation model?" ”

"Cooperation is the means, win-win is the goal, and the model is the routine." Yi Zhishu glanced at everyone as he spoke, and said, "The purpose of everyone's business is very clear, that is, to make money. What business is the most profitable? There is no doubt that a unique business is the most profitable, and everyone wants to do a unique business, but how can there be so many independent businesses in this world? Then we might as well change our thinking and make the business at hand a unique business. ”

Ni Siyuan shook his eyes and said, "How is this possible?" ”

"Of course it is." Yi Zhizhi said: "Cooperative operation, monopoly, and turning an industry that is not a monopoly into a monopoly industry, isn't this a unique business?" ”

Everyone here couldn't help but gasp, this is simply whimsical! But after thinking about it, Yuan Qi really did it, at least monopolizing the money industry in Guangdong Province.

Seeing the expressions of the people, Yi Zhizhi smiled, and said in a relaxed tone: "Yuanqi not only monopolized the money industry in Guangdong, but also monopolized the silk industry in Guangdong through the machine silk reeling factory, and monopolized the sugar industry in Guangdong through the machine sugar mill.

This is the result of Yuanqi's cooperation with sugar merchants and cane farmers in various prefectures and counties in Guangdong, and the three parties are happy to achieve a win-win situation. ”

Yuanqi has monopolized Guangdong's money, silk, and sugar industries? A group of people couldn't help but look at each other, this is tantamount to monopolizing the most profitable business in Guangdong, no wonder Yuan Qi is so rich and confident.

Yi Zhishu looked at everyone's expressions one by one, knowing that everyone was already timid, he came to the door today naturally not to apologize, but to co-opt, to unify the Shanghai money industry, which is conducive to Yuanqi's next step in Susong and Songfu, and furthermore, he wants to show his strength in Shanghai, and also needs the strong support of the local gentry and businessmen in Shanghai, the relationship is stiff There is no benefit to him, and it is the best policy to integrate the Shanghai gentry and businessmen into Yuanqi, of course, if this money industry is not good or bad, he does not mind killing chickens and monkeys.

In front of Yi Zhicontent, the directors didn't dare to talk to each other, nor did they dare to talk casually, they all looked like a gourd, Yi Zhixiang glanced at Wei Desheng and Ni Siyuan, who were sitting under him, and secretly thought that the other party needed time to discuss, and the first time they dealt with each other today, they could only get to the point, and immediately stood up and said, "Okay, I have to handle the handover with Lord Wu today, and say goodbye." ”

As soon as they saw him stand up, everyone hurriedly got up, and Yi Zhizu waved his hand and said, "You guys are at your own convenience, there are many people outside, so it's better not to send it." ”

Wei Desheng hurriedly said: "How can you be so rude, Jing'an, you send the shopkeeper Yi out." ”

As soon as Yi Zhishu left, the room became active, and a group of directors began to discuss, "What does Yi Daoxian mean?" ”

"It's not knowingly asking, what else can it mean, coercion and temptation."

"Don't say it so ugly, there is temptation, but coercion is unspeakable, from beginning to end, Lord Yi didn't say a word of persecution."

"Although there is no word of persecution, the meaning of persecution is coming."

"I've heard of Yuanqi's monopoly on Guangdong's money-saving industry, monopolizing the silk industry and sugar industry, but is there really a thing?"

"Yuanqi monopolizes the Guangdong silk industry, this matter is true, Yuanqi monopolizes all the raw silk in Guangdong with the machine silk reeling factory, and now the quality of Guangdong raw silk far exceeds that of Fujian and Jiangsu and Zhejiang, although the price is high, but it is still in short supply. As for whether there is a monopoly on the sugar industry, it is unknown. ”

"Find a few sugar merchants and ask them to find out if it's true or not."

"Lord Yi came here today to release goodwill, how should we deal with it?"

Hearing this, Wei Desheng, who had been silent, said: "This matter is not small, and you will discuss it." ”

Ni Siyuan sent Yi Zhifen all the way to the gate, and only after he got into the sedan chair did he speak: "My lord, if you have something to discuss at the lower level, do you look for you, or do you look for the shopkeeper Yan?" ”

Hearing this, Yi Zhizhi smiled, this is an understanding person, and he groaned slightly, and then he said: "If I am in Shanghai, I can come to see me directly, if I am not there, I can also find the shopkeeper Yan." ”

Hearing this, Ni Siyuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that Yi Zhixiang attached great importance to them, and he hurriedly bowed down and said, "Congratulations to my lord." (To be continued.) )
