Now that he had received the order, Ba Liming immediately began the work of building an industrial and commercial bank.

"You mean, don't give out those compensation money for the time being, but use it as a reserve fund for opening a bank?" Feng Gao looked at the two people in front of him with suspicious eyes.

Ba Liming closed his head and replied, "That's right. Because the two of us are going to build a money house, and use this money bank as a basis to rebuild the steel plant. ”

"Money?"

Feng Gao muttered for a moment, and couldn't help but think of Qin Gui who had found him in the first place.

At the beginning, Qin Gui also found him, and asked for the right to operate as collateral, and promised to borrow 100,000 yuan.

"That's right. ”

"You also know that it is too difficult to restore the steel plant, and it is already quite difficult to feed the workers in the factory, let alone restore it to its previous state. ”

"And it is. ”

Feng Gao admitted that in the past few days, several more workers, like Bao Ming, chose to leave the factory.

"So I decided not to pay this compensation for the first time, but to use it as a reserve fund for the bank, so as to collect funds from the outside world, so that the steel plant can be brought back to life." ”

He had 100,000 yuan allocated by the Ministry of Industry on hand, which was the fund for the restoration of the steel plant, and he could only use it with Feng Gao's permission.

"What about the conditions?"

Feng Gao asked, "You also know that this money belongs to the workers, and it cannot be used lightly. Even if it adds up, it is only less than 150,000 yuan, how can such a small amount of money be enough?"

After the previous events, Feng Gao did not have much respect for the bureaucrats, and his actions were full of rejection.

"You don't have to worry about that. ”

Feng Bu, who followed Ba Liming to this place, said: "I have obtained the permission of the lord, and if necessary, I can transfer 300,000 yuan from the treasury, which is enough to support the expenses of the bank. ”

"I see?"

Feng Gao thought for a moment and asked again: "It's okay if you just want me to participate in the shares, but you must promise me one condition." ”

"On what terms?" Ba Liming asked.

Feng Gao thought about the tragedy that happened in the steel factory before, and the death of the little third son was still churning in his mind: "You must ensure that the families of the workers in the factory can live in peace and not end up on the streets and be insulted by others, just like you do with retired soldiers." Is that okay?"

It can be said that if the death of the third son was the fuse, then the workers' insecure work and low life were the main culprits that caused the continuous collapse of this matter.

"Absolutely. Ba Liming replied.

Just like the disaster in front of him, he probably didn't dare to let it happen again.

Feng Gao replied, "If you agree, then of course I am willing to help." Of course, about the matter of this money bank's shares, the corresponding documents must be signed!"

"It's nature. ”

Ba Liming opened his mouth and replied that he was really afraid that this matter would continue to drag on, and he had to solve the problem as soon as possible.

While the two were talking, Han Kun also came here.

When he saw that the three of them were discussing, he couldn't help but be full of curiosity, and he stepped forward and asked, "Rank, what are you discussing?"

"This is mainly to discuss the matter of industrial and commercial money. ”

Feng Gao replied that he was not much surprised by Han Kun's appearance, because during this time, Han Kun often came here in a private capacity, so Feng Gao also recognized Han Kun.

"Industrial and commercial money. Is it finally getting started?" Han Kun smiled at the corner of his mouth, and glanced at Ba Liming thoughtfully.

Ba Liming replied nonchalantly: "That's right. "It's a terrible feeling that my mind has been guessed.

"Huh. Isn't this all about solving problems, why should Balang be so polite?" Han Kun smiled: "It's just that this industrial and commercial bank, I don't know where you plan to build it?"

"Well, the location hasn't been decided yet. Ba Liming replied with an embarrassed expression.

Han Kun smiled: "It just so happens that I have a manor here, why don't you set the money village where I am, how about it?"

"Where are you? So what are you going to do?" Ba Liming asked.

Han Kun said with a smile: "If you are as rich as Wang Xuan and Su Lan, it is of course impossible to have houses all over the city, but if you only have one house, you still have enough financial resources." ”

"Well, thank you then. Ba Liming and Feng Gao saluted together.

In any case, the other party is also trying to help themselves, and of course the two of them have no reason to refuse.

With the house donated by Han Kun and the one million yuan sponsored by the surrounding office, the whole work went quite smoothly, and with the help of those workers, the entire industrial and commercial money village had a basic appearance in less than ten days.

Seeing that the Qianzhuang was about to be completed, Ba Liming also made a decision to the Ministry of Finance, and Han Kun and Feng Gao sent an invitation letter to invite them here.

"What are you calling us here for today?"

Coming here, Feng Bujue was slightly reproached, he had something urgent, and he didn't have time to waste here.

Han Kun took a look at the surrounding environment, and saw that it had not changed much from usual, and he also showed a little: "And I don't see much change here, in just ten days, the construction of the Qian Village should not have been successful!"

"And I'm just a generation factory director, the repair work of the steel plant hasn't been completed yet, isn't it too much for you to bring me in?" Feng Gao's heart was also full of doubts and puzzled.

In addition to that Bao Ming, more workers began to leave, which made him more and more anxious.

"Alas. You should also understand that in order to solve the urgent need, the money village must be completed as soon as possible, so there is no large-scale renovation here. And I have come to you today for another purpose. ”

Ba Liming took out three keys from his sleeve, handed them to the three people in front of him, and instructed preciously: "These three keys, the three of you should take good care of them, you know?"

"What kind of key is this?"

Flipping the key in his hand, Han Kun glanced at Ba Liming in a little surprise.

The other two also looked at Ba Liming together, and they couldn't figure out what Ba Liming was doing.

Ba Liming smiled: "It's not a secret, this key is the key to open the vault, if it is lost, it is not enough to have another one." ”

"Oh, then I'd like to take a look, what does this vault look like?" Feng Bujue set his eyes on Ba Liming, revealing a bit of scrutiny.

The rest of the people were also surprised, and took a closer look at the key in their hands, compared to the previous key, this thing has changed a lot, except that there are many more teeth, and it is covered with many silver silk threads, which looks like it should be made of silver.

Seeing the expressions on everyone's faces, Ba Liming immediately smiled and said, "Of course. And the vault is behind this bank, please come with me to have a look, and you will understand the reason!" he said, and walked towards the backyard with a group of people.

When they came to the backyard, everyone immediately saw the place in the courtyard, and at some point a huge pit was dug up to a foot deep.

The pit was about three zhang long and wide, and the bottom of the crater, including the slope, was paved with stones up to three feet thick, and iron juice was poured between the stones to ensure that it was tough and indestructible.

In the middle of the giant pit, a cylindrical house with a height of about one zhang and a diameter of about two zhang was also built with a stone barrier.

Workers around are busy returning to the earth, apparently intending to bury it in the ground.

"This is the vault you designed?" Feng Gao asked.

After the last incident, he was quite concerned about the safety of the vault.

Ba Liming replied, "That's right. In order to ensure absolute security, this is the only way to ensure that the reserves inside are safe and sound. ”

When they looked at it, they could see that there was only one entrance to the house, and when they reached the entrance, they saw that the entrance was made of steel.

The silver glow shines under the sun, making people feel bright.

"Is this the money you made up?"

Feng Gao turned his eyes and looked at Ba Liming.

Although many of the machinery in Chang'an Iron and Steel Plant has been scrapped, there is still some inventory, and all the steel ingots in those stocks were asked to come by Ba Liming, but I didn't expect it to be used in it.

"That's right. In order to ensure that it is enough to withstand the power of the Earth Immortal's blow, a steel shell was made outside this vault, so that it could be considered impregnable. Ba Liming replied.

As for the issue of security, he was really worried, so he naturally did everything he could, just to be able to guarantee the safety of the treasury.

Han Kun smiled: "If that's the case, then I think no one in this Chang'an can open this treasury." ”

"It's nature!"

Ba Liming stepped forward, inserted the key in his hand into the top jack, and then twisted it firmly.

"Boom!"

Everyone immediately heard a dull sound coming from inside, and it was supposed that the mechanism inside had been triggered.

Ba Liming retreated and said to the crowd: "Next, according to A, B, C, and D, insert the keys into it in turn, and you can open this gate." ”

"Is that all?"

Han Kun flipped through his key, and the word "B" was embedded with silver wire.

He followed by the key and inserted it into it, followed by Feng Wuzhi and Feng Gao, and also inserted the key into it, and after all four keys were inserted into it, the lid "poofed", revealing a crack.

Only then did Ba Liming step forward and forcefully pull the round steel cover open.

Everyone looked at it together, and then they saw that the steel cover was more than a foot thick, and one hand could not hold it at all, and there was a groove in the shape of "X", and above the door frame corresponding to the groove, there were four steel columns, which were enough to be the thickness of an arm, enough to withstand considerable impact.

Obviously, each steel pillar corresponds to a key.

As the door was opened, everyone also saw the gold and silver bars placed in it, and of course, a large number of copper coins, jiaozi, treasury bonds, and other things, limited by the area of the vault, probably only less than 10 million yuan.

However, for the current industrial and commercial bank, this money is enough.

"You're ingenious, who invented it?"

Looking at this scene, Feng Bu showed a little excitement.

"This was invented by my friend Ann Ai. Are you interested?"

"Of course. ”

Feng Buzhi sighed: "You also know that our Ministry of Finance is responsible for collecting taxes from various places, and sometimes we will hoard a large amount of funds. But you also know that with the precautions of the previous treasury, there is no way to resist thieves stealing, and there are even people who guard and steal themselves. If you can take this measure, you should be able to avoid a lot of losses. ”

The Ministry of Finance is a fat man, and there are often scandals of officials stealing from each other, on the one hand, because of the attractive wealth, and more importantly, because of the crude warehouse management in the past.

The usual warehouse management is too crude, not to mention that the local officials in charge can easily falsify data, and even the soldiers on duty can enter and exit it and steal its property.

In the long run, there is not a small amount of tax loss every year.

"Huh. If you want, I can introduce you. It's just that the price of this mechanical lock is not expensive, and this alone is as high as 300 yuan. Are you really planning to make a purchase?" Ba Liming said with a smile.

As a pure technocrat, Ba Liming did not believe in any bureaucratic discipline, he only believed in the reliability of technology, so he asked An Ai to make this mechanical lock that required four people to be on the scene at the same time to be able to open it together.

A single person may commit a crime, but when someone is watching, his desire will be reduced so much that he will not dare to act.

Feng Bu replied: "That's nature. Compared with the annual loss of hundreds of thousands of yuan, the expenditure of these three hundred yuan is really much cheaper, and of course it is necessary to install this thing. When he saw this thing again, he had already made up his mind and planned to make a request to Minister Zhou to purchase similar mechanical locks in large quantities.

If this kind of mechanical lock is adopted, it should greatly reduce the possibility of self-theft by the guards.

Feng Bu decided to think like this.

As for Han Kun and Feng Gao, they were also a little relieved after seeing the gold and silver treasures stored in this vault.

"If there was such a thing, why did it become like this?" Feng Gao was also annoyed.

With the current state of preparedness in this vault, it is not an ordinary person, even if the Central Guard Army is used, if there is not a squad, I am afraid that it will not be able to break it.

In a sense, it's the safest place to be.

"Now that this vault has been built, I don't know when we plan to open it?" Han Kun smiled at the corner of his mouth, and looked at Ba Liming with anticipation.

"Probably the end of this month," he complained. It's just that the manpower problem of this industrial and commercial money bank still needs your help from Feng Langzhong. After all, neither of us is very clear about how to manage the bank. ”

"Rest assured, when the time comes, I will naturally mobilize reliable manpower to ensure the normal operation of this bank. Feng Bu replied.

Han Kun complained: "Then the next thing is up to you." ”

"We are all lords and ministers, so naturally we are working hard and going all out to fulfill the lord's vow, so what do we do with each other?" Several people looked at each other, and they all showed a smile on their faces.

Next, as long as the industrial and commercial money bank is open for business, many problems can be solved.
