Chapter 360: The Bank Opened
Lin Yi thought hard for a while, frowned, and said as if to himself: "It's really hard to think about choosing a secret place. You must know that we are such a big place in Yunnan, and it is really embarrassing to arrange so many people to gather together for meetings, and even eat and rest, but also to ensure that the place is kept secret, not discovered by others, and to ensure the safety of everyone! ”
Li Yi also nodded solemnly and said, "Yes!" Duan Siping's purpose in setting the location of the alliance in Ningzhou is to ask for secrecy and safety, but our own people know their own background, and the city of Ningzhou is too conspicuous, so many people are flocking here, and the goal is too big. It is really difficult to find such a place to meet the needs of so many people to eat and sleep, but also to be relatively safe and private! ”
As soon as Li Yi finished speaking, Lin Yi said with a happy face: "Seventh brother, I have already thought of an excellent place, although it is a little remote, but the location is very secret, and no one usually passes by there. And the yard is big enough, and there are enough rooms for guests from afar to rest, so only this place is more suitable for you to come and go. ”
Li Yi was overjoyed, and hurriedly asked, "Oh! What's that? How come I've never heard of it? ”
Lin Yi smiled slightly and said, "Seventh Brother has heard of it if he wants to come, but he hasn't been there in person." That place is actually the chessboard villa that Sun Decheng used to build for summer retreat, which has been idle for more than a year since we put down the rebellion. ”
"A huge and quiet manor, located in the chessboard valley in the upper reaches of Panjiang Jinshuidu, and the terrain is remote, far away from the official road, not only the location is very secret, but also the inner environment is also very beautiful."
"Since it has been useless, I only arranged three or two people there to take care of it, if the seventh brother agrees, I will immediately arrange someone to clean and tidy up, to ensure that everything is cleaned up before the alliance, and I will never miss the major affairs of the alliance."
Li Yi was overjoyed when he heard this, and then thought for a while before he said to Lin Yi: "Since the conditions of this place are so good, I think it's so decided." However, you're already busy with your own affairs, so you don't have to take care of it yourself. This matter was entrusted to General He, who himself was responsible for liaison with Tonghai and various tribes, so it was most appropriate to hand it over to him for comprehensive arrangements. ”
"Although General He is in full charge of the entire affairs of the alliance, the specific affairs must be directly managed by a few capable people. In my opinion, all the ushering and sending, conference arrangements, food and rest of personnel, and horse feeding related to the alliance are all handed over to Xiao Hui. The security and intelligence liaison work of the entire villa was handed over to Sun Chengye, who joined the army, and Qiu Feng, who joined the army, was responsible for each. ”
"The stakes are very important in this meeting, and we must not leak a single piece of news, nor can we make a mistake. Although the meeting time has not yet been finalized, I don't think it will be too long, and you will arrange it as soon as you go back, and at the same time ensure safety and privacy, you will sort out the villa as soon as possible to ensure that guests can stay at any time. ”
Seeing that Li Yi's arrangement was in good order, Lin Yi hurriedly agreed to go out and make arrangements.
As the highest administrative and military governor of Yunnan, of course, he will have to attend the inauguration ceremony of this official financial institution, after all, this is also the first time that Yunnan has opened the world, and even the first time that the whole of China has been unprecedented, so it must be a hit anyway.
Through Li Yi's unremitting efforts for more than a year, and his diligent and people-friendly style, he has won the heartfelt support of the vast number of Yunnan people, whether it is ordinary people or squires and eunuchs, they have given him considerable respect and trust, so that Li Yi's prestige in Yunnan is now in full swing.
According to Li Yi's request, the Bank of Yunnan did not need to rebuild its office space, but instead used a vacant government property on Yubei Street as the bank's office location.
Of course, due to the huge amount of money handled by the Bank of Yunnan and the importance of security precautions, Li Yi ordered the addition of a larger courtyard on the basis of the original dozen houses facing the street, and the addition of more than a dozen warehouses and office rooms. These houses are made of cement, and the doors and windows are made of iron fences, and the ends are unusually strong.
At today's opening ceremony, squire merchants from near and far flocked to the ceremony, and many ordinary people also came to watch. According to Li Yi's judgment, most of them did not come to apply for loans, but were only interested in this kind of government-sponsored deposit and loan institution.
You must know that private lending is nothing new in this era, but the interest rate is high, and there is no guarantee for borrowing and repaying loans. Once the government dominates this creditor-debt relationship, the authority and credibility are obviously guaranteed, although there are many wait-and-see and few shots, but Li Yi can be sure that the new thing of Yunnan Bank will definitely have infinite vitality.
It's just that since the ribbon cutting of the Yunnan Bank, a total of three people have come to borrow money early in the morning, and the total loan is only 150 yuan, and there is no one who has deposited money.
It can only be said that this form of official deposit and loan has not yet taken root in the hearts of the people, and the common people have not yet accepted it in their hearts.
Just when Li Yi was a little anxious, he saw Lin Qingliang walking over from Shi Shiran not far away, followed by a wheelbarrow and two jobs, but he didn't know what was in the car.
Lin Qingliang came to Li Yi and said with a smile: "Dashuai, I heard that Yunnan Bank opened today, hehe!" I still have some spare money in my hand, and I won't need it for a while, and it will only rust but not make money at home, so I will send it to your bank to save it first, and I heard that you can get a lot of interest, I don't know how this interest is calculated? ”
Before Li Yi could answer, Lu Lizhan next to him hurriedly smiled and said, "Mr. Lin is really a shopping mall wizard with long sleeves and good dancing!" As the saying goes, no profit is not early, how can you attract you Mr. Lin without benefits? ”
"Huh! I have a deposit here, the interest starts from three months, divided into three months, six months, one year, two years, three years, the interest is three percent, three percent, four percent, four percent, five percent, although the interest is not comparable to the private loan between each other, but we have the golden sign of the government, that is absolutely reliable, I don't know how much money Mr. Lin has to save, how long to save? ”
