The sun is setting, and the sunset is full of sky.

For a whole day, Yuanqi Bank was the focus of discussion in the whole city of Guangzhou, and the officials and gentry, businessmen, craftsmen, and ordinary people were all talking about this half-day opening that could cause heated discussions in the whole city, resulting in a run on other money banks and being seized by the government, which then caused thousands of people to complain about the money village that is not called the money bank - Yuanqi Bank.

If only from the perspective of advertising, Yuanqi Bank is undoubtedly the most successful, on the opening day in Guangzhou City reached the point of well-known, for the end of Yuanqi Bank, some people regret, some worried, some rejoice, some gloating.

Xiguan, a group of small merchants of the Thirteen Banks rarely got together, drinking and celebrating, although they were dissatisfied with Yi Zhi's contentment to deceive them, but Yuanqi Bank finally won the support of the Governor and was able to continue to operate, which made them very happy, all along, the merchants were unable to make their business bigger because they could not get a large amount of loans, and now they finally saw hope.

With the courage and means of being content, as long as Yuanqi Bank can operate normally, it can definitely meet the loan needs of them, the thirteen merchants, not to mention that this is still the low-interest loan they dream of.

Yi Yunchang naturally became the main object of toasts and compliments from a group of merchants, as Yi Zhi's contented father, he was really scared today, now that the rain has passed, and the sky is clear, he is excited, and he can't help but drink a few more glasses.

Wu Tianyuan, a merchant who was traveling with him, approached him with a sense of wine, and said: "To be serious, your three boys haven't been engaged to get married, I have a niece, a scholarly family, beautiful as a flower, virtuous and knowledgeable..." ”

Before he finished speaking, Liang Chengxi of Tianbao Xing quipped: "Uncle Shuang, everyone knows the roots, just your family background, where did you come from a scholarly niece?" ”

Wu Tianyuan was born in a humble background, in the early years in Macao, Guangzhou to sell chickens as a business, the market people called "selling chicken cool", and later entered the Guangzhou Persian foreign firm as a servant, because of the fluent English, promoted to the steward, gradually became rich, and finally opened the same shunxing.

He was most taboo for others to talk about his background, and when he heard this, he immediately blushed and said with a thick neck: "Can this scholarly family still be self-proclaimed?" My distant cousin, three generations ....... ”

As soon as he heard his distant cousin, he laughed on the table, but Yi Yunchang knew that the big-eyed boy had a good relationship with his three boys, and he was afraid that he would be too embarrassed, so he hurriedly said: "My three boys are indeed not young, you must feel that they can be matched, although the introduction, however, the ugly words are in front, the son is not up to the grandfather, although the marriage is a major event, the origin is to listen to the orders of his parents, but the kid in my family has always been used to being wild, whether it can be done, he has to look at it himself, come... Drink. ”

Everyone laughed and toasted, but their minds were alive, and the talents shown during this time were obvious to all, especially in this bank, not to mention forming a family, even if it was to keep a matchmaker and be a family or something, this favor was not small, and the benefits were obvious.

Some people are happy and some people are worried, the thirteen lines of merchants set up wine to celebrate, and the bank mansion in Xirong Lane is a gloomy cloud, and the shopkeepers of the bank with the ticket number have already learned from their respective channels about the attitude of the two Guangzhou giants to Yuanqi Bank, the governor of Liangguang and the governor of Guangdong, and they all hurried to the bank mansion, many people didn't even eat dinner, they were worried, and their jobs were almost gone, so how could they still be in the mood to eat.

The spacious chamber was overcrowded, most of whom were well-known shopkeepers in Guangzhou, but the president of the Association of Banks, Liang Jiemin, was not there.

In the small living room in the backyard, there are more than a dozen people sitting unevenly, this is the most powerful more than a dozen ticket number money bank shopkeepers in Guangzhou City, Liang Jiemin sat on the main seat, listening to everyone talk without saying a word.

"Now that the Thirteen Lines have taken the lead, they have bribed the two adults with a lot of money, even if we give heavy gifts, it is nothing more than a tie....those adults have been cheapened for nothing, and when it comes to gifts, we can't compare to Wu Bingjian alone."

"It's not advisable to give gifts, and lending to the Thirteen Banks at low interest rates won't work, one is that no one wants to, and besides, even if we are willing, the Thirteen Banks may not be able to sell it now."

"Don't talk about those useless ones, the government can't ban him, can't we do it?"

"Otherwise, let's just absorb small deposits at high interest rates, isn't the Thirteenth Bank just trying to absorb deposits?"

"Not to mention how much silver can be in a small deposit, let's follow the learning, aren't we afraid that the thirteen lines will laugh off the big teeth? The key is that the large deposits, the yuan Qi discount, and the monthly interest rate are above two cents, which is the root cause of the run. ”

"Large deposits are fundamental, if we raise the interest rate, this business does not have to be done at all, once Guangzhou will raise the interest on large deposits to two cents per month, the cash silver of the surrounding provinces will flow to Guangzhou, we do not collect, the thirteen lines will collect, if we collect, it is a loss-making transaction, the market is rich in silver, not to mention two points, one cent and five can not be released."

Liang Jiemin watched coldly, and saw that almost no one was silent from the shopkeeper of the ticket number, so he couldn't help but curse secretly, when are you still standing on the shore watching? After a little hesitation, he spoke: "The ticket number and the money village are interdependent, and you all understand the truth that the lips are dead and the teeth are cold, if the money village collapses, how long can the ticket number last?" ”

A middle-aged man in his early forties, quite elegant, said with a smile: "The ticket number Qian Zhuang is a family, and the ticket number will naturally not stand idly by, President Liang has something to say, although he said frankly." ”

The middle-aged man is the big shopkeeper of the Guangzhou branch of the Rishengchang ticket number - Wang Dechang, although he said it beautifully, but in his heart he was very reluctant to meddle in the affairs of the thirteen lines, the reason is very simple, the relationship between the ticket number and the government is very good, he has a good personal relationship with Deng Tingzhen, the governor of Guangzhou, and the supervision of the Guangdong Customs in Yulong, and he is not willing to wade into this troubled water, but he also does not want to see the danger of a run on the money in Guangzhou, which is not a good thing for the ticket number.

Seeing him speak, the big shopkeeper of the Guangzhou branch of Zhicheng's ticket number, Tsuji Kuan, also spoke: "What the shopkeeper Wang said is that we will not stand idly by. ”

"Good!" Liang Jiemin said with his jaw in his head: "Since we can work with one heart and one mind, let's let go of the fight and fight the thirteen elements......." ”

Yuanqi General Number, Conference Room.

Yi Zhizhi sat on the main seat, holding a cigar cigarette, looked at the semicolon shopkeepers sitting below, and said with a relaxed face: "The guys below are having dinner to celebrate, but you should understand that now is not the time to celebrate, and now, our Yuanqi has just gained a chance to compete fairly."

You should have a clear position on Yuanqi in your heart, what is Yuanqi Bank? It is the public enemy of all the ticket number money shop printing bureau in Guangzhou, and now there is no need to worry about the threat from the government, but the open gun is easy to dodge, and the hidden arrow is difficult to prevent, next, our full force to prevent their tricks! ”
