More than a dozen people walked into the hall, Guo Ye had already waited for a seat, and seeing everyone's sad faces, Guo Ye felt a burst of amusement in his heart.

Guo Ye said lightly: "Everyone, I have thanked you for your kindness today, come, sit down!" Ben Fu prepared a little thin wine, and you have a drink, don't be stunned, sit down, all of you here are my food and clothing parents, Ben Fu can't afford to be lazy, if you have something to say, let's sit down and talk slowly. ”

Seeing that Lord Futai was in a good mood, everyone felt a little more at ease, and now they can only pray that this Lord Futai is not a smiling tiger, and say goodbye, even if it is to let out some blood, everyone will admit it, it must not go on like this, otherwise, everyone will have to finish playing together!

One of the money shopkeepers bowed down and said: "The grass people have thanked Lord Futai for their grace, and the grass people Li Jixian, who is the shopkeeper of Tianshun Qian Village, is the oldest in this industry, and was promoted by the big guy to be the president of the Chamber of Commerce. ”

Guo Ye smiled: "It turned out to be Mr. Li, it's disrespectful, don't stand, if you have something to say, let's sit down and talk, it's okay, don't be too restrained." ”

Li Jixian hurriedly thanked him and sat down with everyone.

Li Jixian said in a low voice: "Lord Futai, when we came in just now, we saw the notice in front of the hall, I don't know why the adult proposed to pour interest to depositors?" In this case, all the rules in our money bank will be broken......"

Guo Ye smiled: "Oh? So you're worried about this, huh? Oh, you don't have to. ”

Li Jixian and the others looked at Guo Ye and waited for Guo Ye's next words.

Guo Ye continued: "Ladies and gentlemen, you have seen that my name is the bank. The so-called bank. It is the name of Western countries. Although it is somewhat similar to our bank, it is not the same, in the West, all the banks that receive the money from the depositors must give money to the depositors, because their money is stored in our banks. Whether we use it to lend money or set up factories and mines, it is all used to make profits, everyone, let's use the money of depositors to make money, and if we make money, shouldn't we share some benefits with them? ”

Li Jixian's face was embarrassed, and he replied: "What Lord Futai said is very true, the so-called **************, although businessmen are born to pursue profits. However, it is still the word of righteousness. In righteousness, we will not be ambiguous, but this rule is left by our ancestors, how can we, the descendants, change the rules of our ancestors? ”

Guo Ye smiled and said: "I understand, that's why I named it a bank, not a money bank, this is also a measure to protect you, after all, if I also do a money bank, your business is estimated to be closed, hehe......"

Another shopkeeper on the side replied: "Lord Futai, the grass people Wang Youshun, the shopkeeper of the Tiantai Money Village, the grass people have the courage to speak, even if the Lord Futai considers us and does not name the money village, I am afraid that our money will also go bankrupt, all the merchants will take out our money and deposit it in your bank, once there is a run, we are only afraid that none of us can be spared, my lord, please pity us and wait for the business is not easy, leave a way for us grass people......"

The other shopkeepers also looked at Guo Ye one by one, their faces full of pleading, Li Jixian said boldly: "My lord, we know that you are holding a group exercise, according to the rules of Jiangnan, these group exercises are not carried out by the imperial court, they are all recruited by local officials, if the adults are in difficulty, one of us here is counted as one, and there will be no ambiguity, the adults have driven away the foreigners for us, and the country and the people are all meritorious, even if we let us serve, we will not be ambiguous, Definitely will give the adults a satisfactory number, my lord, you see......"

Guo Ye slowly stopped his wine glass and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, as I just said, you are all my food and clothing parents, and every piece of money I use is not from you. Here, I can solemnly say to you, the thing of retribution, it is not impossible, but it is definitely not that I want to do this than you, this is not my intention, I don't want you to come here to spend money to buy peace, you don't spend money, as long as you abide by the law, Benfu will definitely keep you safe. What Ben Fu wants to say now is that there is a huge opportunity in front of you, if you don't grasp it, you will regret it in the future, but you can't regret it! ”

Everyone was stunned, a huge opportunity, what a huge opportunity?

Li Jixian hurriedly said: "My lord, the grass people are ignorant, and I ask the adults to solve our doubts." ”

Guo Ye said slowly: "Benfu has ordered that the whole territory of Shandong will be open to foreigners, and foreigners' banks will also pour into Shandong in the near future, even if there is no bank of mine, you still have to face the competition of foreigner banks, if your money remains unchanged, it is still a dead end, the ancient sages once said, poor will change, change will be successful, only flexibility, your business can be more prosperous, abide by the rules of your ancestors, then the good days will come to an end." ”

Everyone was shocked, but I really don't know this, if it's really as Lord Futai said, wouldn't it be even more over? Foreigners, that's even more difficult to deal with!

Guo Ye said: "Everyone, you must understand that the principal of my bank is 1.5 million taels, plus the investment of the political envoy Si Yamen, it has exceeded 1.7 million taels, and with the storage of various merchants, it will exceed 3 million taels in two months, I am afraid it is not too difficult!" However, I can tell you clearly that even if it is such a large scale, in front of the foreigners' banks, it is only a drop in the bucket, in England, in France, almost any big bank, their assets are more than tens of millions or even tens of millions of taels of silver, can you fight against? ”

"My lord! Please leave us a way to live, and don't call the foreigner's bank in! ”

Among them, the cowardly ones have been frightened by Guo Ye's words, tens of millions of taels of silver assets, if they want to defeat these small money banks under their names, it is almost effortless!

Guo Ye shook his head and said, "Listen, what will the hunters do when they encounter the wolf?" Do you turn around and run? ”

Li Jixian shook his head and replied: "Lord Futai, I know this, when you encounter a bad wolf, you can only go head-on, turn around and run away, it will inevitably become the food in the mouth of the evil wolf, there is no physiology, who can outrun the wolf?" ”

Guo Ye said with a smile: "Ah, you also know that the foreigners we are facing now are a vicious wolf, we can be them for a day, two days, but we can't stop them for ten or eight years, sooner or later, one day, they will still enter China, no one can stop it, this is the general trend!" The only way to get out is to unite and beat them back! Survive and develop in the competition! ”
