Chapter 397: A battle is only peace

In Suzhou Fuzhong, Wu Feng, who took a fast horse and rushed over with a speed of nearly 800 miles, was not in the mood to swim in the Taihu Lake next to it.

With a lot of vouchers on his body, he couldn't wait to find the Datang Qian Zhuang in Suzhou Mansion, and the voucher of 1.5 million guan was taken out for the people of the money village to verify, according to the rules, those who put forward more than 50,000 guan at one time need to wait for three days to pay, and he found an inn not far from the money village to live.

The shopkeeper of this inn found the house, did not speak, and used copper coins to put a pattern of the Big Dipper on the table, and waited for the shopkeeper to pour half a bowl of tea before asking, "Is there an autumn crab to eat?" ”

"It's time for the guest officer to come, in this spring ploughing day, the autumn crab is fat, not only how many do the guest officers want to eat?" The shopkeeper replied.

"Let's try half of them first." Wu Feng followed.

"Wait a minute, the guest officer will come." The shopkeeper spoke, filled up the tea, bowed to leave, and after a short time, the door opened, and a middle-aged man wearing a scarf came in from outside, looked back, closed the door carefully, and came to the front of Wu Feng, "Three in charge, you are here, there are orders from above?" ”

"Well, it's time to do it, how much money have you saved here?" Wu Feng didn't want to use the power here, but after he showed his credentials and was verified by the people of Datang Qianzhuang, the other party didn't show any embarrassment on his face, so he had to prepare another hand.

As for the title of the third steward, it was also because he had just obtained it last year, mainly because he contacted the merchants of Jiangnan East Province to open the blue sea and silver sand.

The middle-aged man poured himself a bowl of tea, picked it up and replied: "The three stewards, only 400,000 yuan were brought here, and a lot of benefits were promised to others, how much money is available in the capital?" ”

"400,000? Well, almost, three days later, a small pen and a small sum to take out, the capital borrowed 1.5 million yuan this time, the storage fee used can be from the martial arts, starting tomorrow, you will send someone here to publicize, saying that the Tang Qian Zhuang has no money, and the money saved in it will not be taken back if it is not taken out, and after this matter is completed, you can return to the capital this year. ”

Wu Feng probably calculated, afraid that Datang Qianzhuang would still have the ability to pay 1.9 million yuan at one time, so he said such a way.

"Don't worry, the little one will mix up this water." Hearing that it was possible to return to the capital, the middle-aged man was very excited, the capital is good, and people who can stay in the capital are reluctant to go to the place.

The next day, the originally peaceful Suzhou became unstable for a while, and the people in the spring ploughing did not pay attention to the news circulating in the city, and they did not have so much money deposited in the money bank for people to collect storage fees.

Since the appearance of Datang Money, calculated, I found that the annual storage fee is not much, basically the same as the wear and tear used when keeping the silk at home.

In this way, such a person puts their money in the Datang money village without worrying about being stolen.

Now when I heard someone say that Datang Qianzhuang had no money, I first didn't believe it, and then reported that I would rather believe that it had the idea of not believing it, and was ready to take out the money first.

The person in charge of the Datang Qian Zhuang in Suzhou Prefecture was anxious when he saw the people who lined up to come to withdraw the money.

"How's that for good? If I knew this, I wouldn't have rushed to participate in any training, and I wouldn't have made a lot of effort to go to the local government to be a steward. ”

The person in charge understood that this was the run mentioned by the master during the training, and the most feared thing after collecting the deposit loan was that the person who saved the money came to line up to withdraw the money because of distrust.

One of his deputies was also anxious, and came up with an idea: "Shopkeeper Li, it's better to tell the person who withdrew the money that you can't take it this month, let them wait for a month, and then the money transferred from elsewhere will be able to come." ”

Shopkeeper Li glared at his deputy, "Then other places will get news soon, and more people will go to withdraw money, what should I do if Datang Qianzhuang gives it?" Hasn't the news been sent to the steward? The chief steward will have a way, give, and if someone takes the money, he will give it, and send someone to transport the money over, so that they can see if Datang Qianzhuang still has money. ”

The deputy nodded helplessly, and ran to arrange for someone to take money from the treasury, and then see how much the person who took the money took, and if it was enough, it would be divided into four or six to the silk and copper coins.

He knew that the chief steward was the little son of the Zhang family, and he hoped that this time the little son of the Zhang family could still be as magical as in the past and handle things well.

Because there are silk and copper coins, it is troublesome to withdraw money, whether the person who deposits the whole thing is taken little by little, or directly taken out of all, basically the money will not be lost, and some people do deposit and withdraw the whole thing.

Save one hundred and fifty runs, take one hundred and fifty wen one hundred and fifty wen like this, a horse of silk folded two hundred wen, can not break the silk, can only be paid with copper money, so that the silk will stay in the money bank, the preservation of the silk is not easy, as long as it is in the hand, that is depreciation.

Fortunately, the copper coin itself is not worth the monetary value it represents, so some people mint coins privately, and the copper transported from Silla, from ***, and from Sinwon Island was minted into copper coins to offset the depreciation of silk.

Soon, a cart of copper coins was pushed into the shop in front, and the shopkeeper Li wanted to shout to the people queuing up to withdraw money, you don't have to worry about Datang Qianzhuang not being able to get the money, but I am worried that someone will use this to say that Qianzhuang is holding on, and can only use practical actions to give people a hint.

The consistent money is taken away, and a cart of money is pulled, even if the shopkeeper Li is in a hurry, he doesn't show it, and always sends away one person after another with that smile on his face.

From the morning to noon, the people of the money bank gave the money very quickly, without the slightest intention of delaying time, so that the people who were still queuing up to withdraw the money unconsciously changed their minds.

At this time, the people arranged by the shopkeeper Li spread among the crowd.

"Still don't take it, there must be a rumor that Datang Qianzhuang has no money, look, how can it be pulled out all the time if there is no money? If you don't have money, how can you not be in a hurry? It's noon, it's time to go back to dinner. ”

"I'll take a look again, pull the money again, I won't take it, it's all to blame the mother-in-law at home, I don't want to come over, and I don't want to think about it, who opened Datang Qianzhuang? That's the saint of today, maybe the saint has no money? Ay~! It's a lot of delays. ”

"That is, even if you can't take it out now, it's not that Datang Money Village has no money, it's just that they take out the money and lend it to others to collect more profits, and they can't move it for a while, if there is only a Datang Money Village in Suzhou, then it should be taken, but how much money does Datang have now? I won't take it either. ”

All kinds of such voices sounded in the crowd, and the hearts of those who were still waiting to withdraw the money were moved, and they hesitated to know whether to continue to withdraw the money.

After noon, there were many fewer people to withdraw money.

When it was almost evening, it had basically returned to its original regular access, and the people of Shopkeeper Li and Qian Zhuang were relieved, but Wu Feng was worried again.

The plan is about to succeed, but as soon as the person arranged by the money dealer says that the run is gone, how can this be? That night, he brought the middle-aged man again, and the two of them discussed while eating.

"Three stewards, according to what you think, can Suzhou Datang Qianzhuang still pay 1.9 million yuan? It's not a small amount, but if it's about the same, wait so as not to be found out. ”

The middle-aged man was a little worried, if he continued to send people to publicize the matter against Datang Qianzhuang, once someone caught the handle, it would not be that he was in trouble, if the emperor knew that it was Concubine Wu Hui's hand, no matter how he loved it, he would spill his anger on him.

Wu Feng didn't understand this, he didn't care if another person was supporting Qianzhuang behind his back, one million and nine hundred thousand, there were few places that could be taken out at one time, especially in Suzhou, where people borrowed a lot, and there shouldn't be much money left in Qianzhuang.

But today's opponent is Zhang Xiaobao, who dares to underestimate him? The person who underestimated him did not end well, even if he did not underestimate him, the person who opposed him did not see anyone have a good end, if he didn't come over, he would not have chosen Suzhou, otherwise he would not dare to come here if he was in Suzhou.

Some people are legends when they exist.

Thinking like this, Wu Feng said to the middle-aged man: "For the last time, find a safe person to do it, don't show your feet, if you really find out, we will take care of your family." ”

The middle-aged man's face changed, and he nodded: "Understand, everything will be cut off when you come to me, and I will go back to arrange it immediately." ”

The next day, Suzhou, which was supposed to restore peace, had a new wave, and it was rumored that the emperor wanted to use troops against Tibet and the Turks at the same time, and all the money in the treasury was not enough after taking out, and it was forcibly transferred from the money banks in various places, and the money houses were already empty, and if the money was not withdrawn, once the emperor lost, there would be no money to take.

When a person says this, others don't care, and more and more people say it, so that people who don't believe it can't help but wonder if this is the case.

At this time, the Suzhou government began to send officials to arrest people, and they paid it back, so that people could spread rumors casually, not only the emperor's side was angry, but the key was that he was too late to do it, what would the Tibetans and Turks think?

As soon as it was arrested, it became even more chaotic, and some people began to suspect that this was an attempt to seal up, and the more they felt that the emperor wanted to send troops, and there was no money in the treasury, so he transferred money from the bank.

A new queue has appeared in front of the bank, waiting to withdraw the money.

Just when Shopkeeper Li was in a hurry, Zhang Xiaobao sent someone to urgently send a letter of 800 miles was finally delivered, looking at the content written in the letter, Shopkeeper Li's heart fell into his stomach.

Immediately, let the people follow what was written in the letter and put up a notice outside.

"Is there no money?" The people who didn't know how to read saw the paper posted and anxiously asked around.

Literate people leaned over to take a look, and said to the people around them: "Good thing, great good thing, the emperor said that now the treasury is full, and the four seas are level, so Datang Qianzhuang will cancel the handling fee after a month for those who have saved money before, and the new people who save money are only half of the original, and when the summer comes, Datang Qianzhuang will all waive the handling fee."

In addition, the interest on borrowing will also decrease from today, and the borrowing conditions will be slightly relaxed, so that more people will be able to borrow in the future. ”

Hearing what the literate person says, the person who wants to withdraw the money is confused, which one is right? If it is said that the money bank deliberately wants to deceive people, and the money bank has no money, then there should not be the latter thing that relaxes the loan conditions and reduces the interest, is there really no shortage of money?

Someone in the crowd started talking.

"If you don't take it, if you take it out and deposit it again, although it is half of the previous handling fee, it is not as good as not charging a handling fee at the beginning, if you don't take it, the emperor will never lie to us."

"I won't take it either, maybe there is something good waiting for me, it must be that the rumor-monger knew in advance that the emperor was going to do this, so he came over to take advantage."

"That's it, the rumor-mongers should be caught and killed, it's really too tricky, I have already taken thirty yuan yesterday, and I lost it, and I lost a lot."

The crowd dispersed again, this time no one continued to spread rumors, the previous rumors were arrested a lot, all said that they heard others in inns and restaurants, and for a while I really couldn't find which one said it first, so I could only be locked up for a few days, and then released.

"Three stewards, is there such news in the capital? Did the emperor really say that? The middle-aged man was afraid to find Wu Feng.

"What does it have to do with the emperor? The person in charge of Datang Qianzhuang is Zhang Xiaobao, whatever he says is what, so fast, I just started it here, and he knows it over there, I don't know if he can take out the next 1.9 million yuan. ”

Wu Feng has no bottom in his heart now, didn't Zhang Xiaobao go to Huayuan County to pick up the child? How can you still manage to be here in Suzhou?

When the third day comes, the middle-aged man will first take out the 400,000 yuan he has saved, and promise a lot of benefits to others, after all, he has to take this money himself, otherwise he doesn't have to pay a handling fee for his money, and he will let people pay more.

Then Wu Feng also found Datang Qianzhuang and wanted to take his 1.5 million guan.

Seeing the shopkeeper Li, the other party scared Wu Feng stupidly with one sentence.

"The third manager, the money you want has been prepared, so I'll take it." Shopkeeper Li said kindly.

Just this sentence made Wu Feng cold from head to toe.

He knows, he really knows, it's not the fake name I came to report, and he didn't say my real name, but I called my identity in the martial arts family in the capital, what should I do? What can I do? Will the mother be ...... by the emperor?

Wu Feng's eyes were dark, his ears were buzzing, and he didn't even feel it when Shopkeeper Li touched him, he only felt numb all over his body, without a trace of strength, and his stomach seemed to have drunk a lot of wine and wanted to vomit but couldn't vomit.

With a pop, a sip of liquor was sprayed on Wu Feng's face by Shopkeeper Li, which brought Wu Feng to his senses.

"The third steward, please come with me, there is no more 1.5 million yuan in the money bank, and you need to get it elsewhere." Shopkeeper Li said again.

Wu Feng's frightened soul was almost gone, and when he heard that Qian Zhuang couldn't take out so much money, he didn't feel the slightest joy, thought about it and said, "If you don't have those, don't take it." ”

"How? If you don't take the money, you won't be able to charge the management fee, not to mention that the three stewards have made an appointment in advance, please, the little prince of the Zhang family is not less busy for this matter, and he has transferred the money between the water and the sea and the clouds here, and also transported hundreds of thousands of yuan from nearby, and negotiated with the local people involved in the shares, before he made up 1.5 million yuan for the three stewards, oh, it is 1.9 million yuan. ”

Shopkeeper Li stretched out his hand to help Wu Feng, and Wu Feng was sent to Shuiyunjian by Shopkeeper Li.

Looking at the mountain of money, Wu Feng knew that he could not transport it away, and the transportation fee was dozens of times more than the handling fee for storage, so he had to deposit it in the money bank again, one in and one out, and the handling fee was not less, and the most important thing was that he was exposed, I don't know how Niang Niang is in the palace?

Li Longji in the capital already knew at this time, and when he was angry, he didn't go to see Concubine Wu Hui for three days, and of course he didn't clean up Concubine Wu Hui, so he went to Queen Wang's side to drink wine today.

Queen Wang is making clothes for her son and daughter, although Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan are not short of clothes, but for mothers, others are not as good as their own work.

Seeing that the emperor was coming, while arranging for people to prepare wine and food, he came over to serve the prince, looked at the emperor's face a little bad, and asked with concern: "Your Majesty, but there is something difficult in the court?" ”

"What can the DPRK and China do? Now that the treasury is full, something has happened to the bank. Li Longji had only seen his newborn son and daughter once, and when he came to Queen Wang's side at this time, he thought of the situation when the pair of little guys saw him laughing when they first met, and his mood was much better.

"Your Majesty, could it be that Xiaobao is in trouble?" Queen Wang actually knew what was going on for a long time, and she would have said it directly before, but now she is smart.

Li Longji waved his hand, "What trouble can Xiaobao cause?" With him, the money village is worry-free, and she is not Concubine Hui, she actually did it behind her back, let people save a lot of money in the capital, and went to Suzhou, the farthest rich village, to get it, which is called a run. ”

"Your Majesty, maybe Sister Concubine Hui has the usefulness of the scriptures, it may not be like that, if you really want to run to the farthest place, wouldn't it be better for Jiannan Dao?"

Queen Wang explained.

"Hmph~! What is she used for? Jiannan Road didn't go because of the prestige of Xiaobao and Juan Juan over there, as well as a lot of business between Zhang and Wang's families, and the road was difficult, otherwise she would really be able to go to Jiannan Road. ”

Li Longji was like a mirror in his heart, and how could he not know the reason why Concubine Wu Hui did something to Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan.

At this time, the palace maid had already put the wine and food on the table, and the queen poured wine for the emperor while saying: "Your Majesty, don't worry, there is Xiaobao here, and there will be no trouble if you want to come to Qianzhuang." ”

"Naturally, Xiaobao wrote to Lux a few days ago, saying that the growth of money in the capital is not very common, so he made arrangements early, what if it is a different person? And how? Does anyone have Xiaobao's ability? ”

Li Longji had to admire the master of the Zhang family when he thought of the letter that Gao Lishi had taken at the beginning, and the Xiaobao he taught was able to see the signs from the growth of deposits in the capital, which was extraordinary.

Queen Wang sandwiched a piece of cucumber to the emperor to press the wine, and also drank a small cup with her, and continued to persuade: "Your Majesty, it's okay for Concubine Hui to do this." ”

"What's so good?" Li Long basically thought that Queen Wang could add oil and vinegar, but he didn't expect to help Concubine Wu Hui say good things, and asked suspiciously.

"Your Majesty should think like this, this is Concubine Hui's sister testing the Tang Dynasty Qianzhuang, Xiaobao should deal with it properly, even if it is really uncontrollable at that time, Sister Huifei will re-deposit the money taken out for the money to be used in the bank, it will not spoil Your Majesty's affairs, this concubine can be guaranteed.

This time, His Majesty's heart must be at ease, Xiaobao has done a good job in dealing with malicious access in other places, which is better than other people or countries with bad intentions, so that the people participating in the training have an intuitive impression.

According to the words of the concubine, Concubine Hui's sister's approach is like an adult deliberately embarrassed in order to cultivate children, isn't Your Majesty also embarrassed for Xiaobao and Juanjuan, the two children have said that if they wanted to go to Jili Prefecture, they had to go around and around, if it weren't for Pan'er and them following Xiaobao and Juanjuan, the concubine would also want to embarrass them. ”

Queen Wang tried her best to exonerate Concubine Wu Hui, not that she didn't want to beat Concubine Wu Hui to death, but she really couldn't be killed at all with such a thing, rather than that, it was better to please and let the emperor see his generosity in commanding the harem.

Li Longji actually just wanted to find a step for himself, and when he heard what Queen Wang said, he was happy in his heart, and he deliberately turned his face on the face.

"Xiaobao and Juan Juan deceived me again and again, those courtiers who don't know the reason still think that I can't compare to two children, now I know, it's not ordinary for two children at all, Jun'er and Pan'er are older, and they can also learn good skills."

"Your Majesty, the concubine still has something to say, although the sister of Concubine Hui has tested Xiaobao once, but in the harem, it must be punished, and the concubine decided to punish Sister Hui for half a year, what does Your Majesty think?"

The queen said again.

"Punishment, punishment, come, drink with me, and sleep here tonight." When Li Longji heard that he was only fined half a year's money, he happily agreed.

On the fleet down the Yellow River, Zhang Xiaobao and Wang Juan were holding a child to sleep there, humming a song, while swaying back and forth.

"Juan Juan, do you think Concubine Wu Hui will be cleaned up this time? For example, breaking into the cold palace or something. Zhang Xiaobao pinched the arm that was sore and maintained a support when holding the child just now, and asked Wang Juan.

Wang Juan shook his head and said: "There is nothing at all, you don't know how much Li Longji spoils her, according to the history books, she killed Li Longji's three sons, Li Longji didn't treat her well, this incident just made you a little troublesome, how could Li Longji put her in the cold palace?" ”

"This is the hero sad beauty pass." Zhang Xiaobao sighed helplessly, he knew that he couldn't force Concubine Wu Hui to death like others forced Yang Guifei to death, so he could only acquiesce to this fact.

Wang Juan didn't care, "Actually, it's all the same, where I made a mistake, what can you do?" ”
