"Have you heard? The price of grain in the Zhangji grain shop in the west of
the city has risen, and now it is five cents and one stone!"
"What? Five pennies and one stone? Only three pennies and one stone a few days
ago?"
"Isn't it the locust disaster? Now the food prices in all counties have
basically gone up! The shopkeeper of Zhangji Grain Shop said, if you don't buy
it now, the future food prices will only be more expensive!"
"Ah? Then hurry up and buy some! I heard that the farmland outside the city
has basically been plagued by locusts! It is estimated that there will be no
harvest this year!"
"Then what are you waiting for? Go to the grain store and buy some grain!"
As soon as Li Ke, Cheng Chumo and others arrived in the county seat of Xinfeng
County, they saw some people in the city hurriedly heading to the west of the
city, and they whispered while walking.
"The price of grain in Xinfeng County is increasing? Chang'an City has never
heard of grain price increase. Why is the price of grain rising here?"
Cheng Chumo couldn't help but wonder when he heard the people's comments.
Li Ke frowned, and thought for a while, "Then ask the magistrate of Xinfeng
County~! Let's go to the bank first, and then to the county office!"
"Ok!"
Cheng Chumo nodded, and the group headed towards the Yanhuang Bank in the
north.
"Treasurer Jin, what did you think about what Zhang said before?"
In a study in the backyard of Yanhuang Qianzhuang, Xinfeng County, a middle-
aged man dressed in Chinese clothes with big fat head and big ears asked with
a smile.
Sitting across from him was a middle-aged scribe who was about 30 years old.
The man frowned upon hearing this and said, "Boss Zhang, Yanhuang Bank does
have the obligation to provide loans to private merchants, and you have indeed
provided a sufficient amount. Guarantee, but you must explain to Jin the
reason for borrowing so much money, otherwise it is impossible for Jin to lend
you so much money~!"
The man surnamed Zhang narrowed his eyes and said, "The treasurer, Yanhuang
Bank actually opened the door to do business. Zhang is willing to borrow 6,000
yuan at twice the current bank rate. You have no reason to reject Zhang.
Right?"
When the treasurer Jin heard this, he was still unmoved and said: "Boss Zhang
is right. The Yanhuang Bank is actually no different from ordinary shops. It
is for making money! But the Yanhuang Bank has the rules of the Yanhuang Bank.
Every money borrowed. You must indicate the purpose and purpose of the money.
Jin must not break the rules! So if Boss Zhang wants to borrow this money,
please explain the purpose!"
The man surnamed Zhang frowned, his expression faintly unhappy, his fingers
tapped on the table regularly, "Dong-dong-dong, dong-dong-dong", after a
moment of silence, he spoke:
"Since the shopkeeper Jin wants to know so much, it doesn't matter if Zhang
says it! Recently, Zhang's grain shop urgently needs a sum of money for
turnover, so Zhang will find Yanhuang Bank, and hope that the shopkeeper can
make it easier!"
Shopkeeper Jin showed such an expression on his face, and then he asked in a
deep voice: "In my opinion, Boss Zhang wants to borrow money from Yanhuang
Bank, and then go to buy food on a large scale, hoarding it, and taking
advantage of the locust plague. Make a big profit, right?"
After being broken, the man surnamed Zhang did not panic on his face. Instead,
he smiled: "Why the treasurer Jin said so badly? The locust plague came to the
world, and the farmland outside the city was full of locusts. Zhang did this.
It is also for the people of Xinfeng County to have food to eat in the future.
How can you describe Zhang as the kind of profiteer who hoards?"
The treasurer Jin said with a serious face: "Boss Zhang, these words can only
be used to deceive a child who knows nothing about the world. It doesn't work
with Kim! Boss Zhang wants to hoard food and drive up prices. Isn't he afraid
of the magistrate? Are you not afraid of the court’s guilt?"
The man surnamed Zhang smiled and said: "Treasurer Jin, Mr. Zhang came to
borrow money today, not to be interrogated. In addition, as long as Zhang does
not raise food prices too far, the magistrate is It won’t matter. Now that the
locust plague is raging, but the price of food in Chang’an is not moving.
Xinfeng County is only sixty to seventy miles away from Chang’an. As long as
the food is brought in from Chang’an, wait for the people’s crops to be
destroyed. At that time, it will be difficult for the price of food not to
rise, even today’s sages can’t control it! This is a stable and uncompensated
business! I hope that the treasurer can open the door to convenience. After
the event is completed, Zhang will definitely pay a lot of money. Thanks!"
The shopkeeper was silent for a while, with a hesitant look in his eyes. After
a while, he said, "Boss Zhang, don’t forget, it’s rumored that there is a
Tianji brigade in Yonganhou. The speed of locust extermination is amazing. The
locusts in Lantian County are within two days The extermination is over, and
Yonganhou plans to take the Tianji brigade to other states and counties to
eradicate locusts. Perhaps the impact of the locust plague in Xinfeng County
this time is not as severe as you think!"
Hearing this, the man surnamed Zhang couldn't help but sneered, and said, "Sky
Chicken Brigade? What a joke! There are more than one hundred states and
counties affected by the locust plague this time, even if the Tianji Brigade
can be cleared within two days. It takes only fifteen counties to kill locusts
in one county in a month. This is not counting the time they spend on the
road. In fact, they can kill locusts in a county in one month and burn a lot
of incense!
In one month, the crops in the fields had been eaten up by locusts. By then,
food prices in various places would definitely skyrocket. Not only Yonganhou
could not be changed, but neither the court nor the present day's work could
be changed! "
The treasurer Jin was speechless, obviously, he agreed with the man surnamed
Zhang in his heart.
When the man surnamed Zhang saw it, he felt a play, and quickly added: "Haha!
Naturally, Zhang will not let the treasurer work in vain. A while ago, Zhang
bought two beautiful twin Orchid in Chang'an. Hero, Zhang just brought them
here today and gave them to the treasurer!"
"Fuck!"
Speaking of this, the man surnamed Zhang patted his palms. After a while, the
door was pushed open. Two veiled, tall, and very cool blond beauties walked
in. The veils were not very thick, but still faint. Seeing the outline of the
face behind the veil, the two husky women were born exactly the same.
The treasurer Jin looked blazingly, although he was not yet overwhelmed, he
was obviously fascinated by the beauty of the two Orchid in front of him!
"Haha! Don't pour wine to the shopkeeper Jin!"
The man surnamed Zhang was also a visitor. How could he fail to see that the
persistence in the treasurer's heart had been shaken, so he hurriedly ordered
the two Orchid.
"Yes! Master!"
Two Orchid Blessed, and then they came to the shopkeeper Jin. One carried the
wine jug and the other held the glass. The pink spout of the gentle local
comrades trickled down, reflecting the beautiful face of Orchid, and the
shopkeeper couldn’t bear it. She swallowed hard.
"The shopkeeper, please!"
After a while, a Hu Ji approached the shopkeeper Jin, passed the cup, and
whispered softly.
"Eh! Good, good!"
The treasurer Jin came back to his senses and quickly took over the wine
glass. He would naturally wipe out the oil in the process, causing Orchid to
irritate.
"Hahaha! It seems that the treasurer is also a person who loves and cherishes
the jade! That Zhang gave them to the treasurer to be relieved! I don't know
whether the treasurer agrees to Zhang's loan?"
The man surnamed Zhang hit the railroad while it was hot.
Shopkeeper Jin touched his chin, pretending to indulge for a moment, and said:
"Since Boss Zhang is in urgent need of capital turnover, as the treasurer of
Yanhuang Bank in Xinfeng County, Jin can of course borrow a sum of money to
Boss Zhang! Let's go, today Jin will let him People give the money to Boss
Zhang!"
The man surnamed Zhang was overjoyed when he heard the words, he laughed and
said, "Haha! The treasurer is happy! Please~!"
A quarter of an hour later, in front of Yanhuang Bank.
"Haha! Thank you, treasurer Jin, for your generous help. If Zhang comes to
visit again next time, I hope that treasurer Jin will not turn away!"
The man surnamed Zhang said with a smile.
The shopkeeper Jin flashed his eyes, and said with a smile, "Easy to say, easy
to say!"
"Farewell to Zhang!"
The man surnamed Zhang arched his hands, then turned and left.
"Ouch! Who? Don't you walk long eyes?"
Unexpectedly, as soon as he turned around, he slammed into a tower-like body
and was almost hit on the ground. He rubbed his forehead and couldn't help but
annoyed.
"Hey! Is this road yours? You walked with your eyes closed. Can you blame
others?"
A teenager next to him couldn't help but sneered.
The man surnamed Zhang immediately furiously said: "Huh! Where did you guys
dare to go wild in Xinfeng County..."
Suddenly, his pupils shrank, and he couldn't help showing horror, because the
boy was pushing a strange-looking bicycle. If he was right, it was the latest
outstanding limited-edition variable-speed bicycle from Qiquge Workshop. !
There are currently only three on the market!
And the boy in front of him, and the boy next to him, each had a car!
What does this show? It shows that the crowd in front of you must be rich or
expensive! He may not be able to afford it!
"Haha! It was Zhang who bumped into everyone, I'm really sorry! Zhang has
something to do, let's say goodbye!"
Based on the principle that more is worse than less, the man surnamed Zhang
said no, and then left quickly.
"Hey! Why did this old ** suddenly change his face? Humph! If he is
acquainted, otherwise I will beat him so hard that I don't even know his
mother!"
The tall young man looked at the direction the man surnamed Zhang was leaving
and hummed.
That's right, the people in front of them are Li Ke, Cheng Chumo, and Pang
Feiji. Both Li Ke and Cheng Chumo came to the county by bicycle, while Pang
Feiji was riding a horse.
"Chomo, forget it! We are here for the first time, so don't make troubles,
disaster relief is important!"
Li Ke said seriously.
Cheng Chu hummed silently, and said, "It's not that I caused the trouble, but
he ran into it on his own initiative. Is it possible that I have to praise him
for a good crash?"
Li Ke shook his head helplessly, and said, "That's it! Let's go in!"
After that, he parked his bicycle on the open space outside the bank and
walked directly in.
He didn't worry about the bike being stolen, because Pang Feiji would look
after him outside.
Upon seeing this, Cheng Chu hurriedly stopped the car and followed.
"Do the two princes come to Yanhuang Bank to exchange or borrow money?"
The scene of the treasurer outside the house just now was in sight. He also
saw the two variable-speed bicycles that Li Ke and Cheng Chumo rode, so seeing
the two enter the bank, the treasurer personally came forward to entertain
him.
As for the bank in Xinfeng County, there are currently only two businesses,
namely, the exchange of copper coins and the loan of Tang yuan, unlike the
Yanhuang bank in Lantian County, which also has a deposit business.
"The one who asked you to come out, we have something to find him!"
Cheng Chu raised his head silently, and said arrogantly.
Li Ke just wanted to dissuade, but it was too late, so he had to shook his
head helplessly. He originally wanted to investigate the hospitality attitude
of the ordinary servants in the Yanhuang Bank of Xinfeng County. When Cheng
Chumo yelled at him, he could only show off directly. Up.
"Jin is the treasurer of the bank, dare to ask the two sons what order?"
It is estimated that Cheng Chumo and Li Ke should be the nobles from Chang'an.
The treasurer Jin didn't dare to offend, so he said politely.
"You are the treasurer of this bank? Tsk tsk, it doesn't look like it! Your
belly is not as big as the old guy at the door just now!"
Cheng Chumo stared, looked up and down, and then complained.
Li Ke had a black line on his face. In order to avoid Cheng Chumo from
continuing to talk nonsense, he quickly took out the fish charm from his arms
and placed it in front of the treasurer Jin, and said: "We are here to check
the accounts today. Please also the treasurer to cooperate!"
After seeing the dragon-shaped pattern on the fish symbol and the two
characters "Shu Wang", the treasurer Jin was shocked and quickly bowed and
saluted: "See His Royal Highness Shu!"
The guys in the room were stunned for a moment, then reacted immediately, and
saluted Li Ke together: "See His Royal Highness Shu!"
Li Ke waved his hand ~www.mtlnovel.com~ and said: "This king is here today,
not in the name of King Shu, but in the name of the deputy general manager of
Yanhuang Bank! The treasurer, rushed to collect the nearly three of Yanhuang
Bank in Xinfeng County Get the monthly account book!"
Li Zexuan is the general manager of Yanhuang Bank, and Li Ke has now become
the deputy general manager of Yanhuang Bank. This matter has been sent to
various bank branches in the form of internal official documents. Of course,
the treasurer Jin knows it clearly, but I heard that Li Ke was here to check
the accounts, he couldn't help but sigh, but he didn't dare to refuse, so he
bowed and said: "Yes! Your Majesty wait a minute, your subordinates will get
it! Please go to the hall and sit down for a while!"
After coming over for a while, the treasurer Jin came over with a thick
account book and handed it to Li Ke, "His Royal Highness, these are the
accounts of the Xinfeng County Qianzhuang in the past three months, please
check it out!"
Li Ke nodded, and said, "Well, you go ahead! My king just take a look!"
The treasurer Jin panicked, but he dared not reveal any flaws on his face. He
nodded and said: "Yes! Your Highness! Your subordinates retire!"
After the shopkeeper Jin left, Cheng Chumo couldn't help but said, "Xiao Ke,
when will you finish reading such a thick book? Should we still go to the
county office?"
Li Ke smiled and said, "Who said that I want to finish reading? I just checked
some accounts. Besides, now the accounts of the bank are all recorded by
double-entry bookkeeping, and it is very quick to check! As long as there is
no problem in general, we will Immediately go to the county office!"
Cheng Chu silently scratched his head and said, "Oh! That's OK! Xiao Ke, you
hurry up! I'm going out for a walk!"
If you let this guy fight, he would be 10,000 happy, but if you ask him to
help check the accounts, he can only say "the concubine can't do it"!
"Hmm~!"
Li Ke also knew that Cheng Chu could not sit still, so he nodded and
responded.
