The room was silent, and no one spoke.

What Yi Zhixiang said is indeed direct enough, but it is also the truth, Yuanqi Bank has thirteen banks behind it, there are Governor's Mansion secretly taking care of it, and the bank mansion is busy protecting itself because of the tea crash, and it is powerless to curb Yuanqi.

In fact, this is still a polite statement, now the bank mansion is guarding, Yuanqi Bank is attacking, and the bank mansion is already a defeat, let Yuanqi slaughter the situation.

Huang Zichang naturally hopes that the bank mansion will back down, conform to the general trend, and fully assist Yuanqi to unify the Guangzhou money bank, so that the tea market can hope to recover, but such a big event, he does not dare to speak rashly, to let the bank mansion with a history of 200 years be attached to Yuanqi Bank, which has only been opened for a few days, not to mention Liang Jiemin, who is the president of the bank mansion, even he, the president of the tea association, can not help but have a kind of sadness about the death of a rabbit and a fox, and the sadness of things.

He looked at Liang Jiemin, and then at Yi Zhi, who was leisurely drinking tea with a calm expression, and secretly thought that this kid was really not simple, calm and capable, ambitious, and ruthless, no wonder a group of old foxes from the Thirteen Lines trusted him and let him take full charge of Yuanqi Bank.

Wu Changqing was both shocked and admired, he didn't expect Yi Zhizu to come to the bank mansion with the idea of soliciting the bank mansion, this is really daring to think, anyway, he wouldn't dare to think like this anyway.

Yi Zhizhi drank the tea for a long time, waiting for Liang Jiemin's reaction, he knew that this tea was just for show, and it was used by the host to serve tea to the guests, but he didn't care, it was better to drink a cup of tea, at least it wouldn't be too embarrassing.

Seeing that Yi Zhizhi drank a cup of tea, Liang Jiemin was still silent, but Huang Zichang was a little anxious, he knew that Liang Jiemin wanted to save face, and even said slowly: "The main function of the industry association is to jointly formulate industry rules, safeguard the interests of peers and limit unfair competition, but the old man believes that judging the situation and leading the industry to avoid evil is the biggest responsibility of an industry association." ”

"What Mr. Huang said is very true." Yi Zhizu nodded and said: "The industry guild is the leader of an industry, as the leader of a meeting, it is the biggest dereliction of duty to not know how to judge the situation and put the entire industry in danger." ”

"That being said, the bank hall has been in existence for more than 200 years... Huang Zichang sighed lightly as he spoke, and said, "Yuanqi Bank has only been established for a few days, and the old man is also concerned about it. ”

"Mr. Huang said this, and the younger generation did not dare to agree." Yi Zhizhi said: "Throughout thousands of years in China, how many dynasties have changed, and there are not a few dynasties that have lasted for hundreds of years? Is it possible for an industry guild to want to be born for generations? The younger generation believes that in the end, the important thing is to change peacefully, and smooth the transition, which is better than killing a river of blood. ”

"That's just as well." Huang Zichang said: "I really want to collapse again...... ”

Seeing the two of them singing and harmonizing, Liang Jiemin couldn't hold back and said: "Such a big matter, although the old man is the president of the bank association, he doesn't dare to make a decision easily, can he allow a few days?" ”

Seeing that he didn't refuse, Yi Zhixin was already overjoyed, and immediately arched his hand: "What President Liang said is that such a big event should be cautious, and I will say goodbye and wait for President Liang's good news." ”

Sending Yi Zhifu and the two out of the room, Liang Jiemin turned around and glared at Huang Zichang, and said angrily: "I just said that the money and tea shops are interdependent, and the bank hall will be sold clean in a blink of an eye." ”

Huang Zichang said with a sneer: "I'm not doing this for the bank's good, what the kid of the Yi family said is the truth, resist hard, this wave of tea collapse, I don't know how many money Zhuang has collapsed, if there is another silk collapse, how many money villages will be left?" It's not that you haven't seen the methods of the Yi family...... kid. ”

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Shijie came in in with a panicked look and reported: "President, there are ten more money houses attached to Yuanqi, and the price of tea has plummeted, and it has fallen below 17 taels and 11 quintals." ”

Liang Jiemin nodded, looked at Huang Zichang, and said: "The Yi family kid thinks that he has decided to eat me, and now he will definitely take advantage of the sharp drop in tea prices and buy a large amount of tea, this is a good opportunity for us to turn defeat into victory!" ”

"You're not dead?" Huang Zichang said with a wry smile: "At the price of seventeen or eighteen taels, the thirteen lines are sold to foreign businessmen, and they will not lose money, can they stop, it is impossible to run Yuanqi, and there are Wu family and Pan family behind them." ”

"Hmph." Liang Jiemin snorted dissatisfiedly and said, "I know that you were moved by the Yi family boy." ”

"Isn't Ji Xing tempted?" Huang Zichang said with a smile: "You think about it, but it is related to the lives of 2,000 ticket number money houses, pawnshop printing bureaus and thousands of tea shops in Guangzhou, and thousands of tea merchants, but you must not be rash." ”

"You don't have to press me with a big hat." Liang Jiemin said angrily.

Out of the gate of the bank mansion, Wu Changqing deliberately looked back at the gilt signboard on the black background of the "Bank Club" hanging on the gate, and laughed in a low voice: "Contentment, you say that this signboard can be hung for a few days?" ”

"I can't say for sure." Yi Zhishu turned his head and instructed Li Wang, "Hurry up and inform the shopkeeper Xue and rush to buy tea." After the order, he looked at Wu Changqing again and said, "Over there in the Thirteenth Line, it's better for Changqing to inform you." ”

"Just call the little guy to go." Wu Changqing said lazily.

The two little guys who were waiting left quickly, Wu Changqing said with a smile: "I'm in a good mood today, looking for a good place to drink?" ”

"There's no rush to drink." Yi Zhizhi said: "Let's go to Tianbao Watch Factory first, Shikuan said that the reconstruction was completed today." ”

"That's called two sedan chairs." Wu Changqing said.

"Disperse." Yi Zhicontent said and walked along, and after walking a few steps, he asked casually: "Salt merchant Xu family, do you know about Changqing?" ”

"Salt merchant Xu family?" Wu Changqing hesitated slightly, and then said: "Contentment is talking about Xu Baiting?" Or Xu Gengrong? They were two brothers, but they were each their own door.

This Xu Baiting can also be regarded as a legendary figure in Guangzhou, at the age of thirteen into the salt shop as an apprentice, and then went to sea with the ship to buy salt, encountered a big storm, luckily did not die, but became famous, and then coincided with the imperial court to implement the investment policy of salt merchants, and quickly rose to become a salt merchant giant. ”

Speaking of this, Wu Changqing said a little strangely: "What did the Xu family do when you asked about contentment for no reason? ”

"Hi ......." Yi Zhixiang smiled and said, "It's hard to say, I inadvertently offended a son-in-law ...... of the Xu family a few months ago." ”

"It's worth being content." Wu Changqing said disapprerovitically: "This matter asked Brother Zecheng to come forward to set up a banquet and make peace, a trivial matter." ”

Pan Shiming? Yi Zhisuff hesitated for a moment before saying, "Brother Cheng has a good relationship with the children of the salt merchants?" ”

Wu Changqing said with a smile: "The Pan family has a room that is a salt merchant. ”

I see, Yi Zhishu nodded, and when he mentioned Pan Shiming, he remembered that he hadn't seen him for a few days, and immediately asked, "What is Brother Zecheng busy with this time?" ”

"You don't know?" Wu Changqing thought about it for a while, and then said with a smile: "I forgot to tell you, Brother Zecheng went to Macau, saying that he was buying a Western-style movable type printing press." ”
