In fact, Liu Yong was just polite, and this time he had to speak, because he came here to do business. Although he knew that this person had to help him, he felt that letting these people help willingly was the only thing to get twice the result with half the effort.

So, he stood up and pressed his hand to the applause, like a big leader. The applause gradually stopped, and Liu Yong arched his hand and said, "I, Liu Yong, thank you for your hospitality." When I came to your land today, I was also entrusted by the Holy Lord. Because this royal bank was ordered by the Holy One himself, and was supervised by the Lord. The Holy Lord is going to open the first branch of the Royal Bank in this Yuhang County. This is also an honor for your county. ”

"yes, yes."

There was a lot of talk in the crowd.

Liu Yong continued: "Shengshang still attaches great importance to the new industry of banking. This is also a new growth point for the open source of the imperial court. So, this official is also under tremendous pressure! When I came to your county this time, I would like to ask you to help you to ensure that the will of the Holy God can be fulfilled! ”

"Lord Liu, please rest assured, we will definitely do our best to help."

"Yes, Lord Liu, please rest assured."

There was a voice of commitment below.

Liu Yong deliberately put the emperor on his lips in every word, so that they would not look at his Liu Yong's face, but also the emperor's face. In fact, he didn't have to, because these people had already inquired. But if these words are all beneficial, it doesn't matter.

Liu Yong talked about the ambitions of the imperial court again, which were actually his own ambitions, and everyone who listened to them was excited, as if these ambitions were theirs.

Liu Yong finished speaking and sat down amid warm applause.

"Lord Liu, the official of the shop of the Royal Bank has already been booked for your lordship, and it is on the most prosperous street. After dinner, let's take a look. The county man smiled.

"Okay, there's Lord Lao." Liu Yong arched his hand.

"Then Lord Liu, please dine, right?" The county man pointed to a table of good dishes and smiled.

"Okay, then the official will give you a glass first." Liu Yong raised his glass.

Everyone raised their wine glasses together and drank it all with Liu Yong.

During the dinner, Liu Yong had a good exchange with the county, mainly asking about the income and business problems of the people here. You must know that only places with good business are suitable for opening banks, otherwise it is sad to only take deposits and lend loans.

The reason why the first branch chose this Yuhang County, Liu Yong had already inquired. Commerce flourished here, and there was also trade to the sea. One of the most important cities is located in Yuhang County.

This time, he wanted to meet the master of the city. Unfortunately, this Lord of the Lifting City went to the palace to face the saint today.

The county promised that when the lifting lord came back, he would definitely introduce Liu Yong.

Liu Yong knew that at this time, a large part of the financial proportion of the Great Song Dynasty came from the Municipal Shipping Division, but he inquired about it, and the tariff income of the Municipal Shipping Division last year was only 2 million yuan, which was less than one of his own banks. The main thing is that the imperial court does not do business, it only collects taxes.

Shangyuan Festival, you see that Emperor Ningzong is so good to Liu Yong, and he also rewarded his child with golden beans, which can be regarded as Liu Yong's income in this regard. Although there is only one bank, it can bring two million yuan of income to the imperial court, so what if it is the whole country? Ning Zongyi

Please note: Please pay attention to the rest of your eyes for a long time. Net Recommendation:

And Yang Fan will not want to.

Another reason why Liu Yong wanted to meet the master of the city was that he wanted to know about the situation of the long-distance trade, because his next step was to buy merchant ships and open up ocean-going trade. It is also necessary to open up its own new routes.

What Columbus, what Magellan, they will not be born until more than 200 years later. Now, this global trade and global resources belong to me Liu Yong alone.

He is not exaggerating at all, during the Southern Song Dynasty, the shipbuilding industry was already very developed, and it was able to build super ships with large loading capacity and long voyages. He wanted to see the city to inquire where to buy good big ships, and he wanted to form a fleet.

After eating, surrounded by everyone, Liu Yong came to the shops on the bustling street, more than 100 square meters, and Liu Yong was very satisfied with the decoration.

So the decision was made to open in three days. On the day of the opening, firecrackers rang out, and there were a lot of people in front of the bank, and they were all carrying money.

On the first day of business, nearly 10,000 deposits were collected. Then the next day, a merchant came to borrow money. Liu Yong spent several days in Yuhang County, observing the bank's business and making friends here. The dignitaries and dignitaries in the county invited Liu Yong to dinner. Liu Yong was also very polite, and took Su Erniang and Yun'er to eat all over in this small county.

Of course, I played it all over again. The charm of Jiangnan is something that Su Erniang, a mainland woman has never seen, and besides, women already like the murmur of this small bridge and flowing water, so Su Erniang is reluctant to leave when she stays.

There was no way, Liu Yong would accompany her for a few more days. At the same time, I also waited for the banquet of the city.

During the banquet, there was a county official to accompany him.

At the banquet, Liu Yong asked a lot about ocean trade.

"The ocean-going trade was generally porcelain and silk fabrics, and in exchange for gold and silver, and some exotic foreign goods. And those who do ocean trade make a lot of money as long as they don't have accidents at sea. When I have time, I will lead Lord Liu to meet a few big businessmen in Quanzhou. ”

"Okay, then there's Lord Lao." Liu Yong said.

Tiju Shibo said: "Of course, there are also some merchants from the Western Regions, Arabia, and the South Seas who come to our Great Song Dynasty to do business. There are also Goryeo and Wa kingdoms in the northeast. Just look at this small Yuhang County, there are many foreigners. ”

Indeed, Liu Yong has already discovered this problem.

Then Liu Yong asked Tiju about the merchant ship.

"There is the largest shipyard in Guangzhou. Just buy a boat to go there. I know the adults there, and I can give you a letter of resignation then. ”

"Thanks, can they do what I want?" Liu Yong asked.

"Of course you can, their technology is very good, and they can build any kind of ship, but I don't know what kind of ship Lord Liu wants to build?" Tiju Shibo asked.

"This is a big boat." In fact, Liu Yong wanted to build an aircraft carrier-type ship, which he felt would be more resistant to the wind and waves of the sea.

"Big ship? No problem. "I'm sure of it." But I wonder when Lord Liu will do ocean trade? ”

Liu Yong thought for a while and said, "Well, I'm afraid I will have to wait for two years, because I know that this requires a lot of investment, and besides, I still have to make some preparations." ”
