It turned out that the shopkeeper wanted a mortgage guarantee, which was naturally no problem. It's just that I'm curious, since the shopkeeper knows that I am suppressing the price of tickets, why is he willing to lend me tickets again? As he spoke, Shopkeeper Chen waved his hand to the guards behind him.

The guard behind Shopkeeper Chen stepped forward, untied a cloth bag on his body and handed it to Shopkeeper Chen.

"It's just that the shopkeeper doesn't say, I have all the things I have today, here are all the shops, materials, house deeds, land deeds, etc. of my Hengrun firm, worth two million taels, only a lot more, Zhang shopkeeper can find someone to calculate it. I have borrowed 800,000 taels of bills in Sunrise before, and today I will use these as collateral guarantees, and then borrow another 1 million taels of bills. ”

Zhang Jie didn't look at the pile of things on the table, but stared at the shopkeeper Chen and said: "You and I are doing business in Suzhou Mansion together, and the root of business is buying and selling. What a pity it would be if there was no qualified opponent in a wonderful game. ”

After speaking, Zhang Jie waved his hand to a rising courtier beside him, and the man stepped forward to take down the various deeds on the table and check them.

Not long after, after Rishenglong's inspection was over, he put the deed back on the table and whispered a few words in Zhang Jie's ear.

Zhang Jie nodded, then looked at the shopkeeper Chen and said, "There is no problem with the collateral items, it is worth more than two million taels." ”

Shopkeeper Chen smiled, "Then ask Shopkeeper Zhang to draft the mortgage loan documents." ”

Rishenglong's court took pen, ink, paper and inkstone, first registered the deeds brought by Chen's shopkeeper one by one, and then handed them to Zhang Jie, who drafted two loan documents according to the name of the registration.

Shopkeeper Chen read it correctly, and the two used a seal on the paperwork.

"I don't know what tickets Shopkeeper Chen is going to borrow today?"

Shopkeeper Chen handed over the number of types of tickets that had already been prepared in his sleeve, and Sunrise Long's courtier took it, and after a while, he sent the tickets listed by Shopkeeper Chen.

Following the guard of Shopkeeper Chen to take the box containing the tickets, Shopkeeper Chen got up and bowed to Zhang Jie to say goodbye.

Zhang Jie picked up the teacup and laughed: "Why is Shopkeeper Chen so anxious? This is a good Longjing before the Ming Dynasty, and the shopkeeper Chen doesn't drink more at this time, and I'm afraid it will be difficult to drink it again after ten days. ”

Shopkeeper Chen listened to Zhang Jie's words, and his footsteps suddenly stopped, his face was a little angry because of Zhang Jie's rudeness, but when he turned around, he changed back to a calm and breezy appearance, "Shopkeeper Zhang is too worried, although Rishenglong is the first firm in my Ming Dynasty, but I don't know how much silver is deposited in Suzhou Mansion?" If it is enough to transfer silver from Quan Daming to Suzhou Mansion for ten days? Even if it's enough, and I don't know how much I have to lose in the middle, Shopkeeper Zhang should drink more by himself, after all, you are just the second shopkeeper of Sunrise, right? ”

When Zhang Jie heard this, he immediately stood up and said, "What do you mean by this?" ”

Shopkeeper Chen smiled, "There are more ants biting elephants, I advise Shopkeeper Zhang to hurry up and invite the Rishenglong shopkeeper from Shanxi to come to Suzhou Mansion to preside over the overall situation, otherwise this game will really be a lot less fun, farewell." ”

After speaking, Shopkeeper Chen didn't stay any longer, turned around and left with the guards.

After Shopkeeper Chen left, Zhang Jie frowned and thought carefully about Shopkeeper Chen's words when he left, trying to find out the mystery in his words, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure out what method he could use to turn over, millions of taels of silver tickets, it is not difficult for the eight joint firms to eat, not to mention Wan Yutai's God of Wealth.

"Hmph, a dead duck has a hard mouth, but more than a dozen businesses dare to call it a swarm of ants?" , Zhang Jie

Muttering to himself.

In addition to Sunrise, the other eight joint firms are all playing the same mortgage and lending drama.

Not long after the eight joint firms and more than a dozen shopkeepers signed the loan documents, all the money banks, pawnshops, and printing bureaus belonging to the eight joint firms were replaced with new signboards, and the prices were fully thirty percent higher than before.

When the price of the eight businesses was raised, Wan Yutai's money bank, pawnshop and printing bureau were all closed, and new signs were put on the outside, but the price code of the coupon was not written on the sign, but "The proprietor is sick and closed for ten days".

Those people passing by looked at this sign and despised it, this reason is too foolish, Wan Yutai's owner is obviously in the tea shop on Guanqian Street, and he actually said that the owner is sick.

Wanyu Taiguan front street of the tea house, money is sweating profusely to deal with the people who came to redeem the coupons, the original five stalls have been reduced to four, which has caused the dissatisfaction of the people who redeem the coupons, there has been a long queue of vouchers outside, Wanyu Tai Tea House not only does not increase the stalls but is still decreasing.

Just when the people queuing up were expressing their dissatisfaction, the stalls of Wanyutai Tea House were reduced by one more.

At this time, not only the people in the back queue were unwilling, but even the people in the front queue were also indignant and began to crusade against the owner of Wanyutai for money and shopkeepers.

The shopkeeper of Wanyutai Tea House didn't know why the money had to reduce the stalls, and the tea leaves in the treasury were enough to pay, so blatantly reducing the supply would only cause riots, but the shopkeeper also asked about the money, but the money just refused to say, and the shopkeeper of the tea house had to deal with it.

After noon, Wan Yutai Tea House's coupon stall has been reduced to only one, those who came to redeem the coupon finally couldn't bear to break out, some hot people in the tea house climbed directly on Wan Yutai's counter to smash those sealed stalls, and the people outside are picking up the stones on the ground and smashing towards Wan Yutai's signboard, and the people who are close are ready to go home and move the ladder to remove the signboard.

At this time, the shopkeeper of the tea house could not control the situation, and the money had to go up, and he didn't dare to come out of the counter, so he just bent down and leaned his head to the window and said: "Fellow villagers, I am the owner of Wan Yutai, please don't be impatient, listen to me." ”

As soon as they heard that it was the proprietor of Wan Yutai, these people who came to redeem the coupons were a little quieter.

Qian Cai showed a flattering smile and said: "Today's manpower is really a little insufficient, it is true that there are not so many stalls, and I ask the villagers to forgive me, but I promise to exchange all the tickets in your hands for the villagers." ”

Qian Cai's words fell, and he saw a tattered straw sandal flying over in the crowd, Qian Cai couldn't react, the straw shoe just passed through the small window and imprinted the sole on his smiling face, and then slid down his fat face and fell on the counter in the window, faintly, and a smell of stinky feet came from the straw sandals.

Qian Cai was suddenly furious, and yelled outside: "Ignorant, you are running on the exchange today, which firm will have so many goods in the warehouse to exchange for you, and you dare to throw me with straw sandals, since it doesn't make sense with you, you just run it slowly here, and when Wan Yutai is closed by your run, the tickets in your hands will become a pile of waste paper, you should think about it, whether it is to exchange it slowly, or let the tickets in your hands become waste paper." ”

After speaking, Qian Cai slipped through the back door without waiting for the people to react, leaving a mess and handed over to the shopkeeper of the tea house who had been struggling to support him for half a day.

When the people saw the money slipping away, they only thought that his words were annoyed and ashamed after being beaten

became angry, and then he told the truth without choosing words, these people are like mirrors in their hearts at this time, Wan Yutai is about to finish.

In this way, they feel that the tea coupons bought at a high price in their hands are a little hot, and they can only feel at ease when they are immediately redeemed into the current tea, who knows how long the tea in the warehouse of Wanyutai Tea House can last.

At this time, the people who were still queuing outside couldn't care about queuing anymore, and they swarmed towards the tea house.

The shopkeeper of the tea house was overwhelmed by the people who were shouting and scolding with a lot of tea coupons in their hands, but he still had to exchange them there one by one, and the people who poured in behind couldn't squeeze in front of them, and they couldn't take care of so much, and someone shouted in the crowd: "Wanyutai Tea House has closed down, the east is going to run away, and the tickets in your hands are about to become waste paper. ”

At this time, the Wanyutai Tea House was already a mess, and someone guided it, those people who were originally ready to queue up for exchange were enthusiastic for a while, and the troublemakers ran towards the blue and white ceramic jars that were placed outside the counter to hold the tea in the tea house, and the stronger ones ran away with the jars.

It's just that at this time, the tea house is overcrowded, and there are so many people who have not exchanged for tea, how can they be willing to watch one person leave with such a big pot of tea, and under some pulling, the blue and white ceramic jar fell to the ground and shattered.

Hearing the sound of ceramic breaking, the people in the tea house were just silent for so much time, and then dozens of ceramic blue and white pots in the tea house remembered the sound of "ping pong", dozens of big pots were smashed in an instant, and the people who were close to them suddenly rushed up by thousands.

Seeing that the situation was out of control, how could he dare to stay here for a while longer, and beckoned a few guys beside him to take the silver, tickets and account books in the counter and slipped through the back door as if they were money, and even the large bags of tea used to pay in the counter didn't even care about the big bags of tea used to pay at the counter.

The shopkeeper of the tea house and a few guys went out the back door, and saw an oil-topped carriage parked there not far away, and Qian Cai leaned on the side of the car and looked at them with a smile on his face.

The shopkeeper of the tea house was a little surprised when he saw that the money was waiting there and did not leave, but the situation behind him did not allow him to think too much, so he ran towards the carriage with a few men.

Several people panted and ran to the money, and the shopkeeper of the tea house threw the silver tickets, cash silver, tickets and account books in his arms to the money, at this time he didn't care about any identity or not, and complained: "Master, you can take these first, today you can be regarded as making Zhuangzi miserable, you are so shrewd on weekdays, how can you say such reckless words?" This tea house is considered a waste. ”

Qian Cai threw back the things thrown by the shopkeeper of the tea house to him, and said, "Are you such a stupid person to be the master?" Let's go, let's continue to plague other shops. ”

The shopkeeper of the tea house was a little confused, could it be that the master did it on purpose? But is there really anyone who thinks that money is hot and harms their own industry?

Qian Cai saw that the shopkeeper of the tea house was still stunned, and couldn't help laughing: "You will understand in a few days, if you don't get into the carriage, you will be chased by those people, be careful that you are caught and skinned by them." ”

The shopkeeper of the tea house and the guys were stunned and followed the money into the carriage, and saw that there was a son sitting in the car, although they had never seen it, but they thought that it should have a lot to do with money, so a few people nodded to Zhu Youzhen who was sitting in the carriage.

The carriage was not very big, and it was spacious if there were a few ordinary people seated, but it would be very crowded if there was money to sit in it, and the guys saw that they couldn't seem to sit in the car, so they had to get out of the carriage and squeeze into the car.
