Chapter 358, Take the Silver

If you go to the First Bank, you will find out, and if you can't get the money, you will come back. ”

Huang Zhiwen thought about it and said, although he was still a little worried in his heart, but thinking about it, this is Liu Jin's industry, there is not much to worry about, who is Liu Jin, how can he lose his tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Soon, Huang Zhiwen hurried to the Tianjin branch of the First Bank of Daming with his carriage and escort.

The Tianjin branch is directly renovated from a reinforced concrete building, covering an extremely wide area, and a large open space has been built in front of it, which is specially used to park the carriages that come to handle business.

At this time, the entrance of the Tianjin branch of the First Bank of Daming is very lively, the open space in front of it is full of carriages, and there is a team of escorts waiting here.

Obviously, as here in the Tianjin Shipyard, other industries under Liu Jin also implemented the same policy on this day, so everyone hurried here to exchange silver.

"Lao Huang~"

"Lao Li~"

"Lao Liu~"

Huang Zhiwen got off the carriage here, and soon met acquaintances, and everyone saw that they were all suppliers of industries under Liu Jin's command.

"Lao Huang, Tianjin Shipyard also gave a silver ticket?"

"Isn't it, your Tianjin cement plant is also here?"

"It's not nonsense, I used to give all the silver for nothing, but now I give a bunch of paper, and I don't feel sure, so I came here right away, and I don't know if I can exchange it for silver."

"It should be okay, Liu Gongzi's industry, behind this is all today, it will be fine."

"I think so too, but if the silver is not in hand, it is still not steady, although this silver ticket is very exquisite, but after all, it is a piece of paper."

Several businessmen discussed with each other while walking towards the First Bank of Daming.

Huang Zhiwen took his account room to the first bank of Daming, just entered, it was a hall, there were windows, and at the same time, there were many leaflets in the hall.

"Hello, sir, what business are you here for?"

Huang Zhiwen exchanged shares in the hall, this Ming First Bank is completely different from the money bank he has been to in the past, the money bank always feels unsightly when doing business, there is a sneaky and sneaky feeling.

But it's different here, the decoration is very luxurious, the glass products are used, it's very bright, and the façade is opened to do business, which gives people a very different feeling.

Next to him, a person wearing the uniform uniform of the staff of the First Bank of Daming stepped forward and asked enthusiastically.

"I'm a supplier to the Tianjin shipyard, and I'm here to withdraw money."

Huang Zhiwen nodded and explained his intention.

"Sir, you are a distinguished guest, please go up to the second floor, there is a special manager to connect with you."

The staff took Huang Zhiwen and others to a staircase and said with a smile.

"Okay, thank you~"

Huang Zhiwen smiled and expressed his gratitude, and brought his account room to the second floor, which is different from the first floor, there are very few people on the second floor, and someone who came up immediately came up to greet him in the manager's clothes, and took Huang Zhiwen and others into a private room.

"Hello, I am Zhang Jingchu, the manager of the Tianjin branch of the First Bank of Daming, and I am happy to serve you!"

Zhang Jingchu smiled and motioned for Huang Zhiwen and the others to sit down, and then a staff member brought them tea.

"Manager Zhang, hello, I'm Huang Zhiwen, a supplier of Tianjin Shipyard, and this time I came here to exchange silver."

Huang Zhiwen looked at the room slightly, only the staff of the First Bank and his own people suddenly felt a lot safer, and the privacy was very good, and he had to nod his head for this alone.

Doing business is one thing to do business openly and fairly, which involves silver, and everyone still hopes to be low-key and low-key, after all, safety is the first.

"No problem, please give me the silver ticket."

Zhang Jingchu nodded with a smile and said.

Huang Zhiwen nodded at his account Li Guihua, Li Guihua immediately understood, and handed Zhang Jingchu the silver ticket he had just received from the Tianjin Shipyard.

Zhang Jingchu checked the silver ticket very quickly, there was no problem, this just came out, and there will be no fake silver ticket in a short time.

"It's eighty-five thousand taels in total, isn't that right?"

Zhang Jingchu counted the silver tickets again and again and asked with a smile.

"That's right, it's eighty-five thousand taels."

Huang Zhiwen nodded and said.

"Okay, please wait a minute~"

Zhang Jingchu nodded, and then commanded a small window behind him.

Soon, from the small window behind him, there were tubes of silver dollars that had been packaged and sealed.

Zhang Jingchu arranged these silver dollars neatly, each cylinder of silver dollars has 100, that is, 100 taels, 85,000 taels of silver, there are 850 cylinders.

"Mr. Huang, take the trouble to do it."

Soon, the silver dollar was ready, Zhang Jingchu untied a tube of sealing paper, took out a silver dollar and said: "This is the silver dollar minted by our First Bank of the Ming Dynasty, each silver dollar is one or two silver, you can check it." ”

Huang Zhiwen took a silver dollar and looked at it carefully, this kind of silver is the first time he has seen it, it used to be a silver ingot, but now it has been changed to this shape.

But it doesn't matter, as long as it's silver, as long as it's good, the weight won't be less.

Li Guihua on his side was very skilled and began to check the fineness of the silver dollar, the weight, I saw him take the silver dollar and bite it gently, it was very soft, the fineness was very good, and then he took out a small scale specially used to weigh the silver, and put a silver dollar on it, it was indeed one or two, and the score was exactly the same.

"Master, the silver is in very good condition, and the weight is exactly the same."

Li Guihua nodded to Huang Zhiwen and said.

"Take them all apart and count them."

Hearing Li Guihua's words, Huang Zhiwen was relieved, and after thinking about it, he also commanded, but he was still a little uneasy, so it was better to take it all apart and take a look.

"Yes~"

Li Guihua nodded, waved his hand, and the account room he brought over began to get busy.

Huang Zhiwen generally waited patiently, and on the other hand, he also took a silver dollar and looked carefully, like the silver ticket, it was very exquisite, shiny, very good, and people couldn't help but love it.

"Mr. Huang, our Daming First Bank, it is Liu Gongzi's property, and there will be absolutely no problem with the silver going out here, please rest assured."

While waiting, Zhang Jingchu couldn't help but talk to Huang Zhiwen to see if he could pull some deposits or loans, this kind of businessman with a one-time tens of thousands of taels of silver is a real rich man.

"I believe this~"

Seeing the silver, Huang Zhiwen's hanging heart also relaxed, and after thinking about it, he also talked to Zhang Jingchu, wanting to understand the many businesses of the First Bank of Daming.

"Manager Zhang, your silver tickets are very different from those of other banks, aren't you afraid that someone will forge them?"

There is nothing to say about the silver, what he is more concerned about now is this silver ticket, and he has also read this silver ticket, there is no secret custody and no endorsement, is he not afraid of being forged.

"Haha, Mr. Huang, our silver ticket can't be made by others."

"You see, the paper of this silver ticket is not ordinary paper, even if it encounters water, it will be fine for a while, and its ink is not ordinary ink, it will not melt when it encounters water, and it will not fade."

"And here, if you look at the place where there is light, can you see a human head, this is the portrait of today's son, and you can't make these by fake."

"If you come across a silver ticket that doesn't have these in your business dealings, it's a fake silver ticket, you can report it to us, and we'll reward you."

Zhang Jingchu smiled and popularized the anti-counterfeiting knowledge of the first bank of the Ming Dynasty to Huang Zhiwen.

"I see~ no wonder."

Hearing Zhang Jingchu's words, Huang Zhiwen suddenly realized, and then as a businessman, he immediately understood the benefits of this kind of silver ticket, it is easy to carry, and you can come to the bank to exchange the full amount of silver, and then do business in the future, just take these silver tickets, and there is no need to bring bulky silver at all.

And when doing business, the cashier ticket is more convenient, simple, safe and reliable than the cashier, and the silver is divided into color, weight, etc., the silver ticket only needs to distinguish the real from the fake, and then calculate the number.

This will be greatly conducive to business transactions, more convenient than the silver ticket issued by the bank, I don't know how much, because the first bank of the Ming Dynasty, it does not have a secret and endorsement, saving a lot of trouble, the bank only looks at the silver ticket, as long as there is a silver ticket to give you the corresponding silver, simple and convenient.

"Only a high-ranking person like Liu Gongzi can come up with such a thing."

Huang Zhiwen thought so.

Here, Li Guihua and his subordinates also quickly finished counting, and extracted hundreds of silver dollars, all of which were exactly the same, without any problems, and the number was not bad.

"Master, no problem~"

Li Guihua reported to Huang Zhiwen.

"That's good~"

Huang Zhiwen nodded.

"Mr. Huang, since there is no problem, I will accept this silver bill, please keep these silver dollars, once out of the bank, we are not responsible."

Zhang Jingchu also reminded with a smile.

"Okay~"

Huang Zhiwen nodded, and his subordinates had already begun to put away these white silver dollars.

Looking at these silver dollars, Huang Zhiwen thought for a while and said, "Manager Zhang, these silver... How to distinguish the real from the fake? ”

"It's very simple, the silver dollar from our first bank of the Ming Dynasty, it has a very high silver content, the workmanship is extremely exquisite, there are no flaws on both sides, there are no bubbles, this is the first point, others can't make such a silver dollar at all."

"The second is that you can take it and blow it gently, and then put it to your ear, and you can hear a crisp sound, if it's fake, it's definitely not good, the sound will be very muddy."

Zhang Jingchu smiled and introduced Huang Zhiwen.
