Chapter 121 Reservation Limit
If pneumoconiosis, which consists of 45 letters, has made many people desperate, then the real despair is the English name of the four words of annexin, which is 189819 letters long!
The biggest difference between Chinese characters and alphabet characters is that Chinese characters can be combined with simple words to describe a novel thing, and there is no need to repeat and combine a bunch of letters, so that the vocabulary is more and more, and the length of words is getting longer and longer.
For example, the word bank, one silver represents silver, which must be related to currency and the like, while the other line represents the line, which is simple and clear, easy to understand and easier to remember.
At the very least, the merchants in the border city are easy to understand and accept, coupled with Lin Yu, one of the businessmen, the second or fifth boy secretly proclaimed, gradually someone came to the door to exchange the treasure money and copper plates, which made Li Ti, who originally planned to mix a pot of tea for a day, a little disappointed.
It's not that some people have begun to prepare to cash out, but because the face value of the Daming treasure banknote itself and the price of the market itself are determined.
According to the price of the middle of the Ming Dynasty, 100 kilograms of rice is about one tael of silver, one catty is only 5 yuan, a big rooster weighing several catties only needs 20 yuan, and the price of Yongle period is lower.
In this case, when ordinary people use a hundred yuan worth of treasure banknotes at home, it is almost equal to zero. And the merchant used a lot of 100 Wenbao bills, but when he used copper plates, he used even more - he had to give change to his customers.
In the next few days, the business of exchanging copper plates and cash silver became more and more, and the bank finally became a little busy, and there was even a phenomenon of waiting in line.
Zhu Zhanji looked through the window on the second floor for a long time, and then said to Li Ti: "How is it?"
Li Ti shook his head and said, "The number of people who came to exchange cash is increasing, and the number of people is more than the number of people expected at the beginning. ”
Zhu Zhanji said: "Outside the city"
Li Ti stretched out his hand and pointed outside, and said, "Outside the city." Judging from the situation a few days ago, most of the merchants in the city came to exchange some copper plates, and few exchanged for silver, if it continues like this, it is estimated that the five million taels of silver brought by the lower officials will be useless.
But judging from the situation in the past two days, there are more and more people who come to exchange cash, and they are all redeemed ten times, and they are all from outside. ”
Stretching out his hand and scratching his head, Li Ti said with some hesitation: "It's just that the lower officials don't understand what the purpose of these people is to exchange silver in this city, silver is far less useful than treasure money, and many shops simply don't accept cash silver now, maybe they plan to exchange it and bring it back."
But this also makes some sense, after all, a person can only bring out ten treasure banknotes, even if he redeems ten taels of silver in full, but with those expenses on the road, Xia Guan always feels that he can't make it up."
After pondering for a while, Li Ti continued: "Otherwise, these shops plan to secretly convert the treasure money into silver and bring it back."
Zhu Zhanji laughed and asked, "Then what are you going to do, do you want to give them a chance to cash them or find a chance to stop?"
Li Ti pondered for a while and replied: "Didn't the champion say before, since he has started to redeem, he can't stop for a while, otherwise the confidence that the people have accumulated with great difficulty will easily collapse."
Xia Guan has calculated, there are a total of three windows for exchanging cash, even if a thousand people can exchange it a day, it is only 10,000 taels, but the cash brought by the minister is as much as 5 million taels, plus the cash of the new income, even if they can't redeem it for two years. ”
Zhu Zhanji nodded and said, "Where are these people coming from, have you checked them?"
Li Ti shook his head and said: "The lower official is only responsible for the affairs of the bank, and he wants to investigate the origin of these people, but it is not for the lower official to interfere."
Besides, our border city is the closest to the Wanquan Right Guard, and it is not a big problem to think that it is just the relatives of some border soldiers, or someone in the city who wants to exchange the treasure money in advance. ”
Zhu Zhanji shook his head, turned his head and said a few words to the head of the guard behind him, before turning his head and saying to Li Ti: "Reserve as much cash as possible, and see if you can transfer another batch of cash silver, the more the better." ”
Li Ti hesitated: "Your Highness means"
"According to your calculations, these people are all foreigners, so this is really not a big problem, and if you exchange 10,000 taels a day, it will have no impact on the border city at all. But what if someone has more than ten treasure bills in their hands?"
"What!" Li Ti's pupils shrank, and the whole person stood up like a cat with its tail stepped on, and even his voice trembled a little: "If there is really such a situation that His Highness is worried about, then it will be really a big trouble!" ”
Zhu Zhanji frowned and thought for a long time before he spoke: "I hope I think too much." Now what I'm most worried about is that someone will have hundreds or even thousands of treasure notes in their hands to exchange, if this happens, I am afraid that the good situation in front of me will develop in another direction. ”
Li Ti, who had already gotten up, went back and forth in the room several times before he slapped his head violently, bowed to Zhu Zhanji and said, "This official has a plan to solve the urgent need in front of him!" ”
Zhu Zhanji looked at Li Ti angrily and funny and said, "If you have any plan, just say it." ”
Li Ti said: "Your Highness should know that our bank was originally a pilot, so the subordinates pondered, just hang a sign outside, everyone is limited to exchanging ten treasure notes per day, if you need to exchange large amounts, simply let them make an appointment in advance, even if it is three or five days in advance, the lower officials can also have time to slowly think about coping." ”
Zhu Zhanji nodded and said, "It's indeed a method." It's just that three to five days is not too short."
Li Ti said: "If you go to the post and transfer the silver from the treasury of Wanquan Dusi or Datong Mansion, five days should be enough, unless it is a one-time exchange of tens of millions of taels, otherwise it is not a big problem." ”
After thinking about it, Li Ti continued: "Simply, Xiaguan asked people to write on the sign that because of the size of the branch of the border city, they only accept exchange appointments below 100,000 taels, and if they need a large amount of exchange, such as more than 100,000 taels, let them go to the head office of the capital, or the branch of Shuntianfu to exchange, and the border city does not accept it, in short, limit the amount of their exchange, and these problems will be solved."
According to the opinion of the lower officials, the reason why many people come to the border city to exchange instead of going to Shuntianfu or the capital is because these two places are crowded with people, but they are not as remote as the border city, even if it is a little inconvenient, but it is not easy to be targeted by people with intentions. ”
As soon as Li Ti said this, Zhu Zhanji immediately understood the meaning of Li Ti's words - the so-called capital and Shuntianfu have many people, which actually refers to the many ears and eyes of Jinyiwei, but the border city here is high and far away from the emperor, and it is not easy for the emperor to notice.
And who are afraid that they will be noticed by the emperor
……
In the private room on the third floor of the Drunken Immortal Building in the border city, Yang Shaofeng sat on the main seat with half-squinted eyes, and gently hummed an incomprehensible tune in his mouth: "The three cannons outside the gate are like thunderstorms."
The other people present were about to listen to it again, but Yang Shaofeng didn't sing, but opened his eyes, smiled and said: "Come, everyone is also a well-known figure in the city here, Yang took the liberty of inviting you to a banquet, it was a bit rude, and I hope you don't blame you." ”
Although there are many of these people who are little housekeepers from all walks of life, even the shopkeepers of smaller shops are all famous and surnamed bigwigs in the court, but at this time, they have to squeeze out a smile, and then accompany Yang Shaofeng to drink with a wine glass, and after drinking, they have to praise the wine and food, and thank Yang Shaofeng for his hospitality.
It's three cannons outside the gate, who dares to blame you!
After everyone drank the wine in the cup, Yang Shaofeng said with a smile: "Now that it is autumn, it will be winter in a few months, and it will be the end of the year, and then everyone's time in the border city will be another year." ”
Zhang Renjie, the shopkeeper of the British government, stroked his beard and smiled, and glanced at the others before he spoke: "Before the little old man came to the border city, my father-in-law once ordered, saying that my family's shops and manpower in the border city must obey the orders of the champion father. ”
Yang Shaofeng said with a smile: "Then the official will get straight to the point." ”
Glancing around at everyone, Yang Shaofeng said with a smile: "Everyone must have heard about the opening of the bank, what kind of business does this bank undertake, everyone must have inquired clearly." The reason why this official is hosting you today is because it has something to do with this bank. ”
got up from the stool and paced a few steps with a wine glass, Yang Shaofeng said with a smile: "This official, I understand everyone's difficulties, and I know that everyone wants to go back with the silver at the end of the year, whether it is for the owner or for himself, he must have an explanation, so as to prove that he has not worked in vain this year."
However, this official also wants to ask everyone to be considerate and considerate of the situation in our border city, no matter what, there can be no run, let alone let the treasure money that has risen fall again. What do you think?"
Zhang Renjie hummed and said: "If this is what the champion means, then I will make a statement on behalf of my father-in-law, my British mansion shop, at the end of this year, not a penny of cash will be exchanged, so I will go back with treasure money." ”
Zhang Renjie's voice just fell, but someone scolded Zhang Renjie with a loud voice: "Phew! The old thing is so faceless that it seems that I will run the silver later! ”
After scolding Zhang Wenjie, the person got up and bowed to Yang Shaofeng, and said: "Our Chengguo Mansion is the same, from now on, except for some scattered copper plates for daily needs, we will never go to the bank to run!" ”
