"The old thing is hateful, Master Hou will help me cut it!"

Lu Duosun gritted his teeth and proposed to Ye Hua, his expression was solemn, his fists were clenched, and the green tendons on his temples were stretched one by one, he was really angry!

Ye Hua leaned back in his seat, but he wanted to laugh a little, "Lu Xianggong, who do you want to kill?" ”

"Master Hou!" Lu Duoxun snorted angrily: "Master Hou, why pretend to be confused, of course it's Wei Renpu, an old thing!" ”

Ye Hua said: "Wei Xianggong is the minister of the first emperor's decision, the elder of the two dynasties, and now he is tireless, going south to Suzhou, comforting the people, showing his majesty, there is no reason to kill him!" ”

"Why not?" Lu Duoxun took two steps closely, arrived in front of Ye Hua, tapped his fingers on the table, and scolded, "The imperial court asked him to go to Suzhou, but what did this old man do?" As soon as he got off the boat, he promised to help stabilize the top ten money, Master Hou, do you know how big this hole is? I'm afraid I can't fill it with three or five million! ”

Lu Duosun was about to explode, his eyes widened angrily, "I came to Chuzhou this time to bring a sum of money back to solve the current predicament, but now it's good, there is no silver or two, but I want to take out so much money again and send it to Suzhou, this, isn't this a pit person?" Wei Renpu was generous to the treasury, and took the money of the people of the court to buy him a reputation, his heart can be punished, and his people can be beheaded! Master Hou, if you don't dare to go to the book, I will write by myself and ask Your Majesty to kill the old thief and correct the dynasty! ”

"Wait!"

Ye Hua hurriedly waved his hand, "I said Lu Xianggong, your crime is too big, Suzhou is obedient, and it is also appropriate to give some benefits, why bother with a black mouth and black face." ”

"Master Hou!" Lu Duosun stomped his foot and said, "Is this a little good?" I want to ask Master Hou, how much is the top ten money in Suzhou? We've all been replaced, can the court take it out? If someone gets all the top ten coins of the Southern Tang Dynasty to Suzhou and lets us exchange them, it will be more than ten million! My lord! For the sake of a mere Suzhou, the treasury has been emptied, will you bear the consequences, or will I bear the consequences? Lu Duoxun said angrily: "I heard, Hou Ye's family is rich, some time ago, you minted coins with Li Xianggong, it is estimated that you made a lot of money, and my little arms and legs can't compare, as long as you don't use the treasury, anyway, let you toss, I have nothing to say!" ”

Lu Duosun released all his anger like a cannon, and sat in his position sulking.

Ye Hua smiled indifferently and was not in a hurry, "Lu Xianggong, you are now the third envoy of the dynasty, Your Majesty has entrusted you with the responsibility of financial management, if you can't get a glimpse of the mystery behind wealth, can't make something out of nothing, can't turn stones into gold, can't turn decay into magic, how can you take on the heavy responsibility of financial management?" ”

"This ......" Lu Duoxun scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "Master Hou, do the three envoys have to do this?" Isn't it good to manage finance, taxation and land endowments? ”

Ye Hua shrugged, "Of course you don't understand, but Li Xianggong understands!" ”

At the mention of his predecessor, Lu Duoxun frowned, his heart was pounding, and he could only tremble and say: "Master Hou, the lower officials are really confused, and I also ask Master Hou for guidance." ”

"What's so hard about that?" Ye Hua chuckled, "Didn't you find out?" This time to provide a guarantee for the top ten money, it is a good opportunity to make a fortune. As long as we operate properly, not only do we not have to pay a penny, but we can also grasp the economic lifeline of the entire southeast in our hands! ”

Ye Hua stood up from his seat with a faint smile on his face, very pleased.

"The situation in Suzhou, it really surprised me, to this point, Suzhou has become a fulcrum, the fulcrum of the world!" Ye Hua said confidently: "As long as Suzhou is run well, not only can it unify the south of the Yangtze River, but also pave the way for the next step of law change, I didn't expect it to be like this!" ”

Ye Hua smiled and asked, "Lu Xianggong, have you ever seen a cylinder truck for irrigation?" ”

Lu Duosun thought for a while, "It's the cylinder car used to carry water for irrigation by the Wuzhang River?" ”

"That's right, now Suzhou is a cylinder car, a cylinder car that can extract the wealth of the southeast!"

……

Da Zhou wants to provide a guarantee for the currency of Suzhou, but how to exchange the money, you can't just set up a stall and put a bunch of copper coins, so let the people come over to exchange money!

Da Zhou's side means that the Suzhou Chamber of Commerce will stand up and set up a Suzhou bank, and the Chamber of Commerce will provide talents, venues, and various conveniences, accounting for 30% of the shares, and Da Zhou will contribute 70% of the shares.

Through the Bank of Suzhou, to all the businessmen and people, the number of exchange is ten dollars!

In addition, the Bank of Suzhou also launched a business, that is, interest-bearing deposits, with a tentative annual interest rate of 10 percent, which is absolutely ridiculously high compared to later generations, but very low in any dynasty where there was a general shortage of money.

However, there is one thing that Bank of Suzhou can't compare with others, that is, the account department of Da Zhou provides a guarantee.

For example, if you deposit 10,000 yuan in the bank, no matter how the bank is, as long as you hold the deposit certificate, you can withdraw the deposit at any time when you arrive in Dazhou, and you can take out the deposit at any time, no difference!

After this article was announced, the hanging hearts of the businessmen in Suzhou suddenly had something to rely on.

Speaking of which, what the big guy is most afraid of, isn't it that Wu Yue sent troops to suppress it, or the Southern Tang Dynasty took advantage of the chaos to send troops! If that's the case, all your lives will be gone.

The big guy doesn't believe in the weak Wu Yue, let alone Li Hongji, and even the Chamber of Commerce suspects that the only thing that can bring safety to the people is Da Zhou!

The Bank of Suzhou is backed by Da Zhou, and it is safer than anything else to put the money in the Bank of Suzhou.

What's more, the Bank of Suzhou also promised to exchange ten dollars, so it would be even better!

It is worthy of being a big country, how can you think of everything for the big guys!

The people of Suzhou flocked to the bank's premises.

At first, it was just to exchange it for copper, but gradually, some people found that it was not safe to have so many copper at home, so it was better to simply deposit it in the bank to earn interest!

In this way, people first exchanged it for copper coins and then deposited them in the bank.

Gradually, someone figured it out again, isn't it superfluous to save like this?

Just deposit the top ten money in the bank, what else to change, it's simply taking off your pants and farting!

And what is even more gratifying is that in the market, because of the guarantee provided by the Great Zhou, when the ten coins have also been recognized by the people, the value of the currency has become more and more stable, from the beginning can only be used as three Wen, gradually become five Wen, seven Wen, and then simply ten Wen.

There are also people who think that it is simple and convenient to be ten dollars, and even take the initiative to collect them as ten dollars.

At this time, Ren Tianxing's fleet brought a batch of ten coins, which were very exquisitely cast, far better than the inferior ten coins of the Southern Tang Dynasty...... Bank of Suzhou announced that in order to facilitate market transactions, Bank of Suzhou will issue the top ten coins, which will be exchanged at the same price as the top ten coins on the market.

When the news spread, the people of Suzhou were even more elated, and in front of the bank's business outlets, there were people queuing up all night, so it was needless to say that it was lively......

Although Lu Duosun did not go to Suzhou, he read the report sent from Suzhou every day, and the more he looked at it, the more dumbfounded he became, and when he saw the end, Lu Duosun was about to vomit blood!

"Oh my God! Da Zhou didn't come out of a single son, how did he get seventy percent of the shares of Bank of Suzhou, this, this is too! ”

Ye Hua didn't like to listen to it, "Why didn't I pay the money, who minted those top ten coins?" ”

Lu Duoxun suddenly remembered, and immediately gritted his teeth and said: "Master Hou, those ten coins are the counterfeit coins minted by you and Li Gu, you, you are too bad!" ”

Ye Hua smiled calmly, "Lu Xianggong, if it's not bad enough, what kind of money are you playing!" ”

Lu Duosun was stunned, he wanted to be quiet...... Lu Duoxun was dumbfounded, but Li Gu in the capital was happy, and not long ago he wrote an IOU to Chai Rong, although Guo Zongxun returned it to him, but owed the royal money, Li Gu did not dare to forget.

In order to repay the money as soon as possible, he even dared to mint fake money.

It's just that Li Xianggong has only now discovered that opening a bank is more profitable than casting fake money!

The 10 million he owed, not only repaid, but also added a steady stream of wealth.

Li Gu was finally able to face Chai Rong with a smile.

"Your Majesty, Wei Xianggong announced that he would give the merchants of Suzhou ten dollars, he first borrowed two million copper coins from the merchants of Suzhou, and in just five days, he exchanged three and a half million yuan!"

"Wait!"

Chai Rong was confused when he heard this, "I borrowed two million and exchanged three and a half million, Li Gu, are you confused?" ”

Li Gu said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the minister is not old and confused, because during this time, someone deposited money back to the Bank of Suzhou, in fact, on the third day, the balance of deposit and exchange was reached, and then there was a large amount of deposit inflow, and now in the Bank of Suzhou, there is already a balance of more than three million yuan." According to the calculation of seventy percent of the shares, there are more than 23.4 million belonging to Da Zhou! In addition, Lao Chen's casting of ten dollars and 10 million yuan has been transported to Suzhou, and the merchants and people fully accept it and use it according to ten yuan. After deducting the cost, it made about eighty percent, that is, eight million yuan, plus the discount of the shares, which is more than 10 million. ”

When Li Gu said this, he bowed deeply and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the old minister has already filled the shortfall, and please ask Your Majesty to judge!" Li Gu said it twice in a row, and Chai Rong suddenly woke up, and he shook his head, as if he was listening to a mythical story.

"Li Xianggong, what the hell is going on, I am confused." Chai Rong said: "A small Suzhou can swallow so much money, and I don't believe it!" ”

Li Gu smiled: "Your Majesty, speaking of which, I have to thank Li Hongji for this matter!" He promoted being the five big money, being the ten big money, and made a mess of the market in the south of the Yangtze River, if His Majesty was one of those rich big households, what would he do? ”

Chai Rong was so shrewd, and immediately said, "Naturally, I am trying to find a way to keep my property." ”

"What's the best way to do that?"

"Deposit to the Bank of Suzhou!" Chai Rong slapped the table, "I understand, the money they saved in was exchanged by you for Da Zhou's top ten coins!" You're good at that! ”

Li Gu said proudly: "It takes some effort to be the top ten money, in fact, it is more of a certificate of deposit, if it is a dead letter, but with the endorsement of the emperor of the Great Zhou, it has become real money, which is more real than gold!" ”

Chai Rong couldn't help laughing, "You don't need to put gold on my face, Li Xianggong, you are really my Guan Zhong!" ”
