A reception banquet almost became a Hongmen banquet, and everyone present had different intentions and different thoughts.

Zhu Jie watched coldly, this Nanjing City, there are too few people who can be used, Shi Kefa is loyal enough, and honest and fair enough, however, in the final analysis, he is not a qualified politician, and he is far from being excellent, the book on his body is too angry, between words and deeds, with a strong pedantic atmosphere, more than square, not enough flexibility, such a person is actually the most suitable for learning in the study, just be an official, a general is incompetent, tired of the three armies, sometimes, They may not be able to catch up with the benefits that a corrupt official brings to the people.

Decades ago, Zhang Juzheng was not a good person, greedy, indulgent in dogs and horses, and nepotism, but such a person gave the Ming Dynasty the most enlightened and peaceful prosperous era in the history of more than 200 years.

The rest of the people, all of them are insatiable vampires, compared to Shi Kefa, I'm afraid it's even worse, this Nanjing City is rotten to the roots, Beijing City is not very good, and Ni Yuanlu, Huang Daozhou, Li Banghua and others, at least one is willing to do things, can do things, there is almost no one here who is willing to do things, and even fewer can do things!

Zhu Jie was depressed, and next, he could only take one step to watch one.

At the end of the reception banquet, Zhu Jie had just returned to the apartment prepared for himself by the Ministry of Officials, and before he had time to rest, Qin Mufeng walked in and said in a low voice: "Supervisor, Xinzhou Bozhao Zhilong, Qian Qianyi, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Zhu Guobi, the Duke of Baoguo, and others ask to see!" ”

Zhu Jie nodded and said, "Please let them in!" ”

After a short time, six or seven people, including Zhao Zhilong, Qian Qianyi and Zhu Guobi, walked into the study and saluted one after another.

Zhu Jie smiled: "Everyone, we have just been separated, why, there was no happy conversation at the banquet, and we still have to talk at night?" ”

Zhao Zhilong said with a smile: "Zhen Guogong, there are many people at the banquet, and some words are really not convenient to mention, look, a Qian Yankai and a Shi Kefa have already destroyed the atmosphere, which is really disappointing. ”

"Oh? Uncle Xinzhou, I don't know, what else do you have to do? ”

Zhu Jie asked knowingly, after all, yesterday, Li Yan had already told him about Yongxing Bank.

Zhao Zhilong said in a deep voice: "Don't hide it, Zhen Guogong, the eight largest money houses in Nanjing City and even Nanzhili, except for Yanzhou Hou, are under our seven names, as soon as your Yongxing Bank arrives in Nanjing City, it will start a new stove and be the first to open up the atmosphere, but the money banks under our names will be bitter, Ming people don't say secret words, Zhen Guogong, we just want to ask Zhen Guogong to leave us a mouthful to eat, if Yongxing Bank continues to toss like this, all the money banks in Nanjing City will be closed......"

Zhu Guobi continued: "Yes, when the time comes, we won't be able to open the pot at home, don't blame us for coming to you to fight the autumn breeze!" ”

Zhu Jie nodded and replied: "Everyone, everything is easy to discuss, if just because of this matter, Yanzhou Hou will tear my face and fight, then it is really unnecessary, can't you wait for this official for a few days?" ”

Zhao Zhilong smiled bitterly and said: "Zhen Guogong, do you know that in the three days before you came, how much of the silver in our eight money banks flowed out?" Five million taels, five million taels of silver! This is only three days, even if our family has a big business, it will definitely not be able to withstand it, and if it lasts for ten days and half a month, the eight money banks are afraid that they will have to take out all the old books, and they can't wait for Yanzhou to be in a hurry......"

"How? Zhen Guogong, will the operation of Yongxing Bank be changed? You've got to leave us some soup to drink, right? ”

Qian Qianyi asked.

Zhu Jie shook his head and replied: "The others are still less to say, only this, but it's difficult, you are right, this Yongxing Bank does have the emperor's shares, but his old man took out all the children and handed them over to Yongxing Bank, this way of operation is determined by him personally, I can't be the master......"

Everyone was dumbfounded, they didn't expect that the emperor's stake in Yongxing Bank turned out to be true! What can I do? Is it just watching all the money banks go bankrupt?

"Zhen Guogong, please be sure to take a look!"

Zhao Zhilong said urgently.

Zhu Jie was stunned and asked, "Uncle Xinzhou, is this thing really that difficult?" Could it be that if Yongxing Bank does not change its course, there will be no way out for the bank? ”

"Is there any other way?"

Zhao Zhilong asked.

Zhu Jie said with a smile: "Uncle Xinzhou, you can completely let the money bank under your name be like Yongxing Bank, pay depositors dividends and reduce loan interest, I think Yongxing Bank can do it, there is no reason, your money bank can't do it!" ”

"Zhen Guogong, don't be joking!"

Qian Qian said astringently: "To pay depositors dividends, there are at least tens of thousands of taels of costs to be borne by foreign banks every year, where is it so easy to earn back these tens of thousands of taels?" If you don't do it, you will lose money year after year, and now the business model of the money village is left by the ancestors, and it has not changed for hundreds of years, and now we want to change our ways? Let's just shut down! ”

"Master Qian, I believe that Yongxing Bank can make money, so your money bank will definitely not lose money if it is operated like this! Is the shopkeeper of your bank not as good as the shopkeeper of Yongxing Bank? This big shopkeeper of mine is a monk halfway, and half a year ago, he was still on the battlefield! ”

Zhu Jie said in a deep voice.

"Zhen Guogong, this matter is really not negotiable?"

Zhao Zhilong's eyes were blazing, and he said unhappily.

Zhu Jie nodded and replied: "Unless you all write to the emperor and ask the emperor to take back his life, otherwise, I have no way, however, in the past half a year, Yongxing Bank has made good profits, I think by the end of the year, at least hundreds of thousands of taels of silver can be earned, do you think that under such huge profits, the emperor will agree to change the business model?" ”

Of course I don't think so!

Everyone in the world knows that the emperor thinks about silver every day, and he has to go crazy with it, and now he has a stake in Yongxing Bank, and he will receive tens of thousands of taels or even 100,000 taels of silver in a year, so that he can change his business, but I am afraid that he will directly chop up the person who wrote and feed it to the dog!

"Ladies and gentlemen, it's actually very simple, those of us who are parents and officials, we can't always squeeze our own people like this, take a step back, let the people benefit, and rest with the people, what's so bad? If you are willing, I am even willing to let you take a stake in Yongxing Bank! ”

Gao Hongtu's heart was shocked, and he looked at the young and unspeakable Guogong in front of him in a daze, this is not the Guogong under the shadow of his ancestors, but he earned it by himself, and he was able to go from penniless to a well-known Zhenguo Duke in less than two years, Zhu Jie's mind and bearing are really worthy of such an honor!

"Zhen Guogong is so open-minded, Xia Guan admires, since Zhen Guogong said, then Xia Guan will do it, Yongxing Bank can make money, I think there is no reason why the money under the name of Xia Guan can't make money, everyone, compared with the mourning after him, some money may really not be so important......"

Gao Hongtu said slowly.
