Chapter Seventy-Six: Before leaving

This appointment and dismissal order caused an uproar in the homes of the people in Ancheng, everyone thought that Xu Zhijie was going to be the county order, but they didn't expect that it was Huang Tingzhen who was the county order. In the past, everyone went to give gifts to Xu Zhijie, although Xu Zhijie did not become a county order, but he also went to the provincial capital to become a farmer official, and he was also in charge of himself, who didn't have a field at home, so he didn't dare to ask for a gift back, so he had to prepare another one to tie up Huang Tingzhen. Of course, I also have to prepare a big one for Chen Yuanheng, after all, Chen Yuanheng was promoted to become a prefect, and he was also in charge of Ancheng, and for a while, the jewelry shops and silk shops in Ancheng were doing well.

Chen Yuanheng didn't have a fight, these people went to scold Xu Zhijie and snubbed Chen Yuanheng, but now these people turned around and snubbed Chen Yuanheng, they were all worried that Chen Yuanheng would not accept them, as a result, what they were worried about was redundant, Chen Yuanheng would accept it if he was polite, he would eat if he had food, and he would be good with anyone, and now the hearts of these people in Ancheng were put in their stomachs.

On this day, a wealthy businessman invited Chen Yuanheng and Huang Tingzhen to dinner, Huang Tingzhen refused, Chen Yuanheng got off the office, and found that Huang Tingzhen had not left, so he went into the house and talked to Huang Tingzhen: "Tingzhen, the tea merchant Xu family invited dinner, I heard that I also invited you, why don't you go?" ”

Huang Tingzhen's face was indignant: "Lord Chen, he invited him to dinner, why are you still going?" Last year, there was a splash who slandered him, it was you who helped him, and afterwards he was grateful to you, but this year there were rumors that Xu Shijie was going to be a county magistrate, and you were going to fall, so he immediately changed his court to befriend Xu Zhijie. I resolutely don't go, my lord, don't go either, I want to see what benefits Xu Shijie can give him now. ”

Chen Yuanheng laughed: "Tingzhen." Most people in the world are like this, there are many icing on the cake, and there are few charcoal in the snow. I also went to eat. There are several reasons, one. As a tea merchant, although Master Xu is rich, his status is not enough, and he is often falsely lied to, and he needs to know people from the government, so he used to scold me. Later, he went to talk to Xu Zhijie for the same reason, speaking of which. What he stammered was not the Chen County Order, nor the Huang County Order, nor the Xu County Order, what he stammered was the County Order. Whoever does it is the same. ”

These words made Huang Tingzhen's anger disappear a little. But there are still some things that can't be turned around. At this time, Chen Yuanheng said again: "Second, because the place where he invited me to eat is Qinghe Building, he can bring business to my family, why not do it?" I must eat whatever is expensive today, and earn more money for my family. ”

Huang Tingzhen laughed when she said this. Chen Yuanheng said again: "Three. When the water is clear, there are no fish, and the merchants need us, and we also need them, for example. When you need to raise donations, you always persuade wealthy businessmen to donate, and it is easier to get to him to donate in the future. Take our road, for example. ”

Huang Tingzhen's eyes lit up when he said this, yes, during this period of time, he was thinking about road construction day and night, but Chen Yuanheng gave him a good idea. Huang Tingzhen hurriedly said: "Let's go, I'll go too, and be friendly with him." ”

Chen Yuanheng laughed and left with Huang Tingzhen.

The Bai family in the house also began to get busy, because the ladies had a treat today, a tea tomorrow, and a play the day after tomorrow, even if they didn't go out, the small flower hall for hospitality was not idle, and there were always ladies visiting. Of course, there are also many gifts. Chen Wenhui followed her mother out to socialize, and when she went out, she was barehanded, and when she came back, she must have worn several gold bracelets.

Chen Wenhui complained to her mother that she didn't want to go out anymore. Bai Shi said to her: "I know that you are annoyed by them, and I am also annoyed, I smile every day, my face is stiff, what is this, the bad people are praising you, if your father is not promoted, but demoted, it is estimated that they will not come to the door if they ask them." ”

Chen Wenhui pouted and said, "Then what are you doing with them?" It's all a bunch of wallgrass. ”

Bai smiled: "When the water is clear, there are no fish, don't you know?" We are leaving, so why bother to offend people? But your father and I know in our hearts which ones are the true friends we will have more contact with in the future, and which ones are face-saving, and we know very clearly. In the future, true friends, we will naturally take care of them, and when people take refuge in us, we will let people follow us to eat and drink spicy food, face-saving, we will accept gifts and eat food, on the surface we will be affectionate, and when we encounter things in the future, hum, it is not so easy to say. Your father wouldn't have given up on that. ”

Chen Wenhui heard such words and felt that it was very reasonable. Later, when she was in Deqing, she heard that Huang Tingzhen persuaded these wealthy businessmen to donate money to build roads, and she understood, it turned out that her father was waiting for them here.

Mingzhu came at this time and said, "Mother-in-law, are you going out again?" I want to go to Sister Shuyu with Sister Hui'er, and we said okay, we'll get together more. ”

Chen Wenhui remembered at this time, and immediately said to her mother: "Yes, mother, you can go by yourself." I'm going to Li's house with Sister Mingzhu. In another month, Sister Mingzhu, Sister Yaozhen, and Sister Lan will go to Deqing, leaving Sister Huang Yuyan, Sister Shuyu, and Sister Qiaozhen, so we said okay, get together again. ”

Bai Shi smiled and said, "Your two brothers are also busy partying with friends these days. You've all got a circle of friends. Okay, let Sister Mingzhu take you well and take more maid mothers out of the house. ”

Chen Wenhui hurriedly agreed.

At this time, Hu Shi came in and said, "Mingzhu, this little monkey, is walking so fast, I am hurrying and hurrying, but I am still a step slower." ”

Mingzhu quietly stuck out her tongue. Bai Shi looked at it and laughed: "My sister is also here?" But what's the matter? ”

Hu Shi looked like Bai was going out, and hurriedly said, "My sister is going out, and I don't have anything serious?" It's just a matter of a few words, I heard that I bought a house in Deqing? ”

Bai said: "Chen Fu of Deqing Restaurant came back and said that the house for you has been bought, and it is just one street away from the prefect's yamen. The price is not expensive, only more than 800 taels. The house is similar to your current one. I have to clean it up, it just so happens that Feiguang is also there, that girl has the best eye, I will entrust her to repair the house for you, add furniture, it just so happens that the 1,000 taels of silver you gave have not been used up, so let her use the rest of the money to buy it for you. I didn't tell you, so I made the decision for you. ”

Hu Shi was very happy to hear this: "It's good to help me make the decision, Feiguang's vision is better than mine, but I'm afraid that more than a hundred taels is not enough, I just have two months of rent, and more than five hundred taels from the autumn harvest Zhuangzi, if you need money, just tell me." Hey, it's just that the new house is not as close and convenient as it is now. ”

Bai said: "The housing prices in Deqing City are expensive, and it is not easy to buy, this is already the most recent. Because it's too small, it's not easy to sell, but we ran into it. ”

Mingzhu said at this time: "Mother, when are you going to talk about it, we are leaving." ”

Hu Shi hurriedly said: "Okay, I won't say anything, I'll go back, sister, you can go out quickly." It's okay to let the two sisters go out, and the province will go back and blame me. ”

Bai Shi agreed with a smile.

In the evening, everyone was drinking tea in Bai's upper room, Chen Yuanheng was a little drunk, and said: "Hui'er, Wang Yihe's bank will open tomorrow, and it will be called Jusheng Bank." I'm going to give him a show tomorrow. ”

Chen Wenhui clapped her hands and said: "This is good, it will be convenient for people to have a bank." ”

Chen Wenjun was very strange: "What is a bank?" ”

Chen Wenhui explained. Chen Wenjun is not a son-in-law who does not eat fireworks in the world now, as soon as he heard it, he knew that there were many things to do here, and he was very interested, and offered to go with his father. Chen Yuanheng happily agreed, and asked Chen Wenlin to go too, Chen Wenlin was willing to go as long as there was excitement, and he happily agreed.

As soon as this bank opened, the wealthy families of Anseong shook again. Because the Wang family made the scene very grand, Chen Yuanheng didn't say that he was there in person, he also helped Wang Yihe invite many people, basically Ancheng rich and faced, just kidding, the county order invited, dare not come? What's more, this prefectural order will soon be the prefect. Of course, Huang Tingzhen is also here, and now the old and new county commanders are here, do others dare not come? So the scene was very grand, and the new thing of the bank was known to the people of Anseong at once.

Knowing what the banks do, the wealthy people in Anseong can't do it. At this time, if the family has money, they will find a hidden place to hide, either with a box or with a secret compartment. If there is too much silver, a cellar will be dug. If the family can't afford to hire a nurse and finds it inconvenient to dig a cellar, they will deposit the money in the bank, but they will have to pay the money to the bank. Now this bank is also a money bank, but this new money bank, do not need to deposit money, and pay interest, although this interest is not high, but there are too few investment channels in this era, and you can only buy land. Therefore, many rich families have a lot of silver hidden in their homes, and they have to ask for a nursing home for this, and when there is more silver, and the fields are enough, they can only put the silver in vain, and some of them have been put for decades, or even hundreds of years, and the silver has turned black.

First of all, it is good to have a place to deposit the silver and pay back the interest. Suddenly, these rich people felt that there was an extra way to make money, and of course they were a little worried about whether it would be safe for the silver to be placed with others? In a blink of an eye, the presence of the two county commanders before and after shows that the Wang family is very strong, and the Wang family is originally a well-known rich family in the county, the family is connected to each other, and the grain stores are all over the province, and now the most profitable soybean oil business is also his family, which is so guaranteed.

As soon as Jusheng Bank opened, there were many wealthy people who came to deposit money, and in just a few days, Jusheng Bank received more than 200,000 deposits. Wang Yihe was happy, but after being happy, he was sad again, and after thinking about it, he went to find Chen Yuanheng again.
