Xu Guangqi and the others' eyes lit up when they heard this, and they gave a thumbs up and exclaimed: "My lord is really a genius!" In this way, the people will flock to it, and they will soon be able to establish their reputation! ……”

Guo Zhiyuan secretly amused, these savings promotion methods that have rotten streets in later generations are unheard of in this era, but they are absolutely easy to use, you must know that in this era, there is no interest on the silver stored in the bank, and you have to pay the custody fee, and the main service objects of the money bank in this era are rich businessmen and powerful people, but ignore the majority of ordinary people, so its liquidity is limited, Guo Zhiyuan's Dongfan Bank is to include this part of the huge group that has been ignored, In this way, the monetary and credit system of Dongfan can be established more quickly and comprehensively!

Things are going more smoothly than Guo Zhiyuan expected, those maritime businessmen who did not invest in Guo Zhiyuan's East China India Maritime Trade Company are about to regret their intestines, and now I hear that Guo Zhiyuan wants to set up a Dongbo Bank, so I have to seize the opportunity quickly, although they still know a little bit about the new term bank, but with their shrewdness, as long as they listen to Guo Zhiyuan's explanation, they understand that this is definitely a profitable and lucrative business, and they don't want Guo Zhiyuan to agitate, so they line up with silver tickets one by one and shout to buy shares.

Overnight, dozens of large shops with the signboard of "Dongfan Bank ** Branch" have sprung up all over Fujian, the opening scene is called a sensation, firecrackers are set off as if they don't want money, and all the rich businessmen who are a little famous in the local area have come, and for a time this "Dongfan Bank" has also become a hot topic of discussion among the people everywhere, and they have asked what this bank is doing?

At first, the common people just looked at the excitement, and the people were a little cautious about new things, but after the bold people tried it, the word of mouth slowly spread, and the silver was deposited in Dongfan Bank to make money, and ten taels of silver were deposited in it, and after a year, it became ten taels of silver, and as long as you opened an account, no matter how much silver you deposited, you will be given a bag of rice, what? What if the bank fails, and the shopkeeper runs away? Do you know who opened this Dongbo Bank? It was opened by Lord Guo, the Earl of Dongfan, who was personally appointed by the emperor of the Dongfan Prefect! That's right, it's the Guo master who defeated the Japanese invaders! Do you think he could run? And Mr. Chen of Jintai Firm, you know, right? The family is rich, and he is also a shareholder of Dongfan Bank! You say that this Dongfan Bank can deceive you of those broken silvers? Hurry up! After this village, there will be no more shops!

So Dongfan Bank soon opened up the situation, less than a month after opening, the deposit of silver reached five million taels, of course, nearly half of this is those who have invested in the seamen's business to pull their connections, this shareholder is not in vain, Guo Zhiyuan set them all the task, at the beginning they brought those customers are just not able to erase the symbolic deposit of some silver to Dongfan Bank, but soon they tasted the sweetness, the silver stored in the bank can not only be withdrawn at any time, but also save for a long time and the money is also considerable. And when your capital turnover is not good, you can also borrow from the bank, the more money you have deposited in the bank, the greater the amount you can borrow, where to find such a good thing?

With the credibility of the Dongfan Bank as a guarantee, the new currency of Dongfan will slowly circulate in the market, the silver coins and copper dollars issued by Dongfan are exquisitely designed, the silver and copper content is high, and the change is more convenient, the key is that you can exchange silver and copper coins at any time, so what else is there to worry about, so it has gradually become the "hard currency" on the market, and even some merchants specify that only Dongfan silver coins are accepted when trading, and they are unwilling to accept silver taels that are difficult to judge the silver content.

It is naturally impossible for Dongfan Bank not to alarm the government when it makes such a big move, Chen Zizhen was also shocked when he first heard the news, this Guo Zhiyuan is too bold, and he dares to openly issue privately minted coins? ! was about to order the seizure of Dongfan Bank, but Guo Zhiyuan took the initiative to come to the door.

As soon as Chen Zizhen saw Guo Zhiyuan, he pointed at him and said violently: "You... You're so daring! Are you trying to openly rebel by minting coins privately?! Today, no matter how clever your tongue is, this official will never let you go, come on! Quickly take down Guo Zhiyuan! ……”

Guo Zhiyuan had expected Chen Zizhen to react like this, and smiled unhurriedly: "Lord Chen, you have to escort the lower officials to the capital for punishment?" ……”

"That's natural, minting coins is a felony, and it deserves to be punished! How can this official be appeased! Chen Zizhen said angrily.

Guo Zhiyuan pretended to be frightened and said: "That's not good, if the lower official can't stand the heavy punishment and talk nonsense when he arrives in the capital, tell the relationship between the lower official and the adult......" Speaking of this, Guo Zhiyuan deliberately paused, glanced at Chen Zizhen's order, rushed in and prepared to take Guo Zhiyuan's official servant.

Chen Zizhen's face swelled red like a rooster stuck in his neck all of a sudden, he has received a lot of silver from Guo Zhiyuan in recent years, if Guo Zhiyuan bites indiscriminately, he will be the governor of the end, so he has to wave his hand to signal the officials to go out first, and then quickly close the door, turn his head and grit his teeth at Guo Zhiyuan and say: "Guo Zhiyuan, what do you want?" Do you want to kill the official? If the official falls, what good will it do you? ……”

Guo Zhiyuan laughed and said, "What do you say, my lord? The subordinate and the adults are very happy to cooperate, how can they hope that the adults will fall? ......" Seeing that Chen Zizhen was so angry that he was about to go berserk again, he hurriedly took out a Dongfan silver coin and explained: "My lord is angry, please listen to the explanation of the lower officials, the lower officials are not despising the imperial court, and my lord sees that this coin is not printed with the words 'supervised by the Dongfan Mansion in the 36th year of Wanli of the Ming Dynasty', which shows that the lower officials are still concerned about the imperial court, and the imperial court does not allocate a penny and grain to Dongfan, and the lower officials must not find some way to get money......

Chen Zizhen was almost stunned by Guo Zhiyuan's sophistry, and pointed at him with a trembling finger and said angrily: "Are you looking for money?" You're looking for death! ……”

Guo Zhiyuan waved his hand nonchalantly and said: "My lord is serious, are there still few privately minted coins circulating in the market today?" Why doesn't the court care? Don't you know what kind of people these people dare to mint coins privately? They can cast it, why can't we? Besides, the emperor of Fujian Tiangao is far away, as long as you turn a blind eye, the imperial court can't manage it even if you want to! ……”

Of course, Chen Zizhen knew that what Guo Zhiyuan said was "crooked", Guo Zhiyuan's private coins and those powerful people minted private money are completely different in nature, but he has been dragged into the water by Guo Zhiyuan, and he has received a lot of "filial piety" from Guo Zhiyuan over the years, but he can't be hard if he wants to, so he patted his head with a headache and sighed helplessly: "Sooner or later, this official will be killed by you one day!" ……”
