On the official road to Tianjin, which was illuminated by the afternoon sun, seven war horses galloped all the way under the guidance of the knights on the horse, and the passers-by walking on the official road heard the sound of the horse's hooves, and avoided it early from afar, and the black horse led by Qin Chuan was Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan, who was in charge of the field training in Jinghai, received an urgent report, so he had to hurriedly assemble the troops and hand over the troops to Zhou Dajing to bring back, while he himself galloped back with those guards.

It turned out that the German cargo ship Hamilton, which had just returned from Seoul, brought back news that there were Japanese warships cruising in the waters near the Han River, and ships from various countries were forbidden to enter, and they could not get in touch with Aldington to dock to retrieve the last batch of goods. In addition, the staff officer reported that Aldington had an urgent telegram waiting for Qin Chuan to return to deal with it.

Oldington's Ovan Bank, which opened in Seoul, has aggressively solicited depositors with high interest rates of 5 percent a month and 20 percent a month. At the beginning, the North Koreans were really frightened by the high and amazing interest rate, and most of them just waited and watched, but some small businessmen tried to save money in this magnificent Chilean bank, but seeing that they could really get back the promised interest in the monthly period, more and more people gradually came to save, not only people in the Seoul area, but also wealthy families, wealthy businessmen, and eunuchs from Busan in the south to Pyongyang in the north.

Seeing that as long as the silver was sent to the bank opened by this magnificent foreigner, he could get back the outrageously high monthly interest in full by the month, and never defaulted, so that the enthusiasm of the customers who came to the bank to deposit money became more and more high, and later the people in the Seoul area as long as they had some cash, they would send the silver to the bank, not to mention the rich families, almost all sent a lot of silver, and even some people deposited the interest in hand together with the principal again and again, and the deposit period was getting longer and longer.

Although Irving Bank was also affected by the turmoil of the big silver mine in Chile, which caused a lot of panic in North Korea, Aldington claimed that Owington Bank was not involved in the development of the so-called big silver mine, but was only responsible for contacting the development funds for them, and was not involved in it. Owing's project is much larger, with a copper mine already in production, and two gold mines being explored, as evidenced by photographs.

Persuaded by Aldington and his persuasive statements, the turmoil quickly subsided.

At the beginning of this year, even Min Sung-jun couldn't resist the temptation and secretly took all the money in the North Korean treasury to the bank to save it. Of course, the interest belongs to him.

As a result, Ponzi schemes, which predate history, appeared in North Korea in advance.

In the next hundred years, many people who have been deceived flock to it, and at this time it is not invincible, and the vaults of the Irving Bank have long been piled up like mountains of gold and silver.

In June of this year, Qin Chuan had already begun arranging for Jin Lisan to quietly begin to quietly transport the savings that Aldington had attracted in North Korea back to Tianjin. According to the plan, the German-registered Hamilton freighter is going to transport back the last batch of funds, as far as Qin Chuan knows, this last amount is huge, not to mention that it also includes almost all the gold in the North Korean treasury, and he must get this money back without a penny, otherwise it will be cheap for those poor devils who are about to become pants in order to develop military strength.

Approaching the Yanguan pontoon bridge, there were more and more pedestrians on the road, and Qin Chuan had no choice but to slow down the horse, just let the sweaty big black horse trot across the pontoon bridge with broken steps and turn in the direction of East Street.

After more than a year of development, East Street is now larger and more prosperous, and the land price has risen significantly. Now, many of the original small shops on East Street have been acquired and expanded, and the two- and three-story buildings with brick and stone structures along the street are also arranged in the same way as the Aurora sales department, and the storefronts on the first floor are inlaid with bright and large windows, which display samples of goods. The transplanted canopy of ginkgo trees along the street has brought a lot of vitality to this East Street, and as far as the eye can see, a wide and tidy East Street, full of red walls, green tiles, and green trees, and the bustling crowd shuttles back and forth between the various restaurants and shops, so it is not lively.

Every time he walked on this East Street, which was prosperous because of him, Qin Chuan would involuntarily feel a heartfelt pride in his heart, and his pace would be slowed down as much as possible. But today is different, Qin Chuan, who has something in his heart, let Gao Ying, who had already urged the horse to run in front of him, loudly urge the pedestrians on the road to dodge the road, and the big black horse followed closely behind Gao Ying with compact steps.

"Lord Qin stays."

With the shouting, a man rushed from the side of the street to the street to block the way, and Gao Ying, who was opening the way, had to rein in his horse. This guy from Qinchuan who blocked the way, he was Zheng Jiu's subordinate, and when he looked up, he had indeed arrived at Zheng Jiu's Yiran residence.

Seeing Qin Chuan stop the horse, the guy hurriedly trotted over, with a smile on his face, and said in a low voice.

"My lord, I know that the Taoist chief will let the little one stare at here at noon, and as soon as the adult comes back, the small one must stop the adult, and go upstairs with a favor, saying that the adult and a destined person will meet today, and the Taoist chief is now playing upstairs against the person."

Knowing that since settling down in Yiranju, as he said, he only thinks about retreating behind closed doors in this busy city, and rarely goes out and about, except for resting and meditating in the small courtyard that he is alone in the back every day, and then goes up to the second floor to drink tea and watch the street scenery in a window seat that he only enjoys. Occasionally, when Qin Chuan had leisure, he would go up to the second floor and chat with Ran while drinking tea and chatting with each other, what he didn't expect was that Ran's chess skills were very superb.

Qin Chuan's chess skills are not very high, and before the crossing, he was only at the level of an amateur four-dan, but fortunately, after a hundred years, the theory of Go chess has developed greatly compared to this season, which made Qin Chuan and Ran able to withstand Ran's exquisite and powerful chess strength. For example, at this time, the opening game of Go was first played in the Tianyuan position, and they all still adhered to the thinking of the supremacy of the middle abdomen of those who won the Central Plains, and ignored the sub-effect of the golden horn and silver edge; For example, compared with the formulas a hundred years later, the number of formulas at this time is far less complicated and numerous, and the reason is that the ancients did not pay attention to the corners.

Because of this advantage, Qin Chuan can often show his might in the corners, first of all, he has achieved great benefits, and his eyes are full of surprise, and he is even more amazed by Qin Chuan's broad vision in the layout stage. However, as long as the middle game is passed, under the counterattack of the subtle and powerful tricks, the advantage will be greatly reduced, and Qin Chuan will lose the chess game if he is not careful.

Although Qin Chuan was in a hurry, he still decided to go upstairs to meet Ran first, especially the person who was destined for him.

Qin Chuan jumped off the horse, said a few words to Gao Ying, and then took two guards into Yiranju, Gao Ying asked the men to tie the horses, and led the rest of the people back to the dyeing factory in a hurry.

The second floor of the tea house is not as crowded as the hall on the first floor, and there are only a dozen tea guests upstairs, because although the upstairs is only a rectangular hall, only dozens of pots of green flowers and trees are used as grids to separate each tea house, which not only makes each table of tea guests have a large space, air circulation and breeze, but also makes people feel like they are in an outdoor garden. It's just that the tea on this upstairs is a bit expensive, which has stopped the minds of many people who want to go upstairs to taste tea.

Qin Chuan was familiar with the way, and he didn't need a guy to guide the way, but he just exchanged glances with Zheng Jiu behind the counter in the hall on the first floor, and went upstairs directly with the two guards. The two guards came upstairs, just looked around, and sat down on the seat near the staircase, while Qin Chuan went straight to the window with a few large pots of ornamental trees that grew very luxuriantly without knowing any name.

On the carved Eight Immortals table by the window, in addition to two cups of tea, and then the chess game from the end of the game, he heard the footsteps of Qin Chuan, who was facing Qin Chuan, and after only a glance at Qin Chuan, he put down a black round and thick cloud in his hand and stood up.

The person who played against him was still unconscious, and said with emotion: "The Taoist is not only superb in chess, but also has a novel start, and the layout is a unique world, which makes people have an understanding of the mouth, and Cipu admires." ”

Xiao Ran smiled and pointed at Qin Chuan and said, "Master Gao, this opening situation, the old way is all learned from Master Qin." Come, you talk, the old way is a little tired, take the first step. ”

After finishing speaking, he didn't introduce the two of them, and his quiet gaze only turned on Qin Chuan's face, and Shi Shiran walked straight down the stairs.

As soon as he said this, the man also turned around and saw Qin Chuan, his eyes couldn't help but light up, and he stood up and looked at Qin Chuan.

Qin Chuan also saw clearly at this time that this person was dressed in a cyan brocade horse coat in his forties, with a thick braid hanging down the back of his head, and his bare forehead was already slightly wrinkled, but his eyes were heroic and capable.

Qin Chuan arched his hand: "Qin Chuan, the word Minghong, is the head of the salt group, I don't know what to call Brother Ren, and where is the high position?" ”

The middle-aged man was also busy arching his hand and said: "Gao Jishan, Zicipu, Jiangxi Pengzeren, Wuzi Keju person, candidate county, is now the instructor of Geyang County." (To be continued.) )
