Chapter 230: Cash Exchange
The money village will only open when the hour is over, and those who hold fake silver tickets will naturally not huddle in the cold wind and wait at the door of the money village like real people, but sit and watch the play in the teahouse restaurant near the money village, and then go to exchange cash when the money village opens.
There are many such people in the teahouse where Wang Xiang sits.
Qingyuan Tea House can be opened opposite Qianzhuang, the location is the best location in the whole Chang'an, of course, it is not an ordinary tea house, here and a cup of tea can eat a table of sumptuous dishes in the small restaurant.
This place was not a place where Zhang Dashou could come, but it was true that he exchanged thousands of taels of silver from the money bank yesterday, and he still carried a thick stack of silver tickets in his arms, so he naturally had confidence.
There was a pot of the best tea, and a plate of the best snacks, and as soon as the man in the teahouse persuaded him, he took out a silver ticket with a denomination of one hundred taels and slapped it on the table.
"Why, you can drink as much as you want, are you afraid that you won't give silver?"
The guy saw the silver ticket of one hundred taels and his heart suddenly struck, and he hurriedly said, "I didn't mean that, but ......"
"But what?" He squinted his eyes with his big hand.
"The shopkeeper said that there will be no cash tickets for these two days."
Zhang Dashou sneered, picked up the silver ticket and shook it in front of the guy: "This is a silver ticket issued by the bank, and it can be exchanged for one hundred taels of silver or one hundred copper coins in any bank." Look at your shopkeeper's interest, do you know who opened the bank? It was opened by His Majesty, is it possible that His Majesty will still cheat our people's silver! ”
The guy is not very old, who is the opponent of Zhang Dashou, and when he heard his words, he hurriedly explained: "We, our shopkeeper doesn't mean this, it's just, it's just ......"
The news of the accident in Qianzhuang was already in an uproar yesterday, and the whole city knew about it. The money house opposite is still surrounded by a group of people waiting to exchange cash, which shop still dares to collect cash tickets.
Zhang Dashou looked at the timid appearance of the guy, sneered disdainfully and withdrew the silver ticket, took out a silver ingot and slapped it on the table.
"It's okay now, good tea and good snacks are served, and the master has to go to the money village to exchange for cash. You shops don't want to collect cash tickets, so what are you doing with them? ”
"Yes, yes." The guy breathed a sigh of relief and nodded hurriedly.
Wang Xiang naturally noticed Zhang Dashou's actions, there were not many people like him, and there were more rich people in Chang'an City all of a sudden.
Hmph, these people who don't know whether they are alive or dead, even the shopkeeper of the teahouse realizes that there is a problem, they actually dare to take the fire, bold and greedy will make people lose their minds, even if people like Zhang Dashou realize that there may be a problem with the silver ticket, but as long as they can exchange it for cash, they are willing to take risks.
As for the family, they never thought that this matter would be seamless. Suddenly, so many silver tickets appeared, and it was impossible for Li Er not to notice the problem, but this was originally a yang conspiracy, and the people were holding real silver tickets in their hands. Li Er has only two choices, if he does not recognize the silver ticket, then he will lose the support of the people and even cause public anger, if he recognizes the silver ticket, it is a bottomless pit, and how much cash is not satisfied. Whatever you do, the result is what the Maison would love to see. As long as they can't find out the source of the silver ticket, they can stay out of the matter and watch the fire from the other side.
As soon as the hour passed, the gate of Qianzhuang had just opened, and the people sitting outside Qianzhuang immediately rushed in, and the people waiting in the nearby teahouse and restaurant also got up and started to act.
Zhang Dashou threw down a table of dim sum that had not been touched much and ran towards the money village opposite, Wang Xiang put down the poor money and smiled at Tie Dan when he saw this: "Let's go over and have a look." ”
There was a mess in the bank. All of them are clamoring to exchange cash, and the big money ticket owners like Zhang Dashou are especially loud.
The person in charge of the money village had already received a notice from the palace, so he was not as anxious as yesterday, and stood on a high place, pressed his hand to the noisy crowd, and said loudly: "Everyone don't worry, line up one by one, Your Majesty has already asked people to transfer money from the palace." All silver tickets and deposit vouchers can be exchanged for cash. ”
Hearing that His Majesty had asked people to transfer the silver, everyone finally stopped the noise and crowding, but they were still a little uneasy in their hearts.
"It's really here, I just saw a lot of carts carrying silver coming out of the palace!"
A crowd who had just come in from outside cheered in surprise, and everyone's faces suddenly became happy.
According to Wang Xiang's request, Li Er did let people transport cash silver with great fanfare, and the team transporting cash silver also attracted many onlookers.
Seeing that everyone's mood had stabilized, the person in charge of the money village continued: "The cash silver will be shipped soon, because there are more people who come to exchange cash, in order to exchange cash for everyone as soon as possible, please line up for those with a larger amount to the left, and those with a smaller amount please line up to the right, and there will be someone to exchange for everyone." ”
Hearing him say this, in order to exchange the cash as soon as possible, everyone lined up according to the requirements.
Zhang Dashou belongs to the category of people with a large amount of exchange, and when he heard that there was a lot of cash shipped over, he couldn't wait to line up on the left, and he was also a little worried that he couldn't redeem cash today.
In the crowd, Wang Xiang saw many familiar faces, all of which were the people he asked for with Li Eryao that day, pretending to be ordinary people and mixing in them.
Zhang Dashou probed his brain at the back of the team and watched the people in front of him exchange cash, but accidentally found an unusual place.
Maybe it's because there are more people redeeming silver tickets today, and there are more silver tickets, so the person in charge of checking and exchanging in front of him put a box to recover the silver ticket on the left and right, sometimes he will put the recovered silver ticket into the box on the left, and sometimes he will put the recovered silver ticket into the box on the right.
After careful observation, he found that although the same could be exchanged for cash, once the person who was put into the silver ticket in the box on the left and left happily, there would be a quick person in the crowd who quietly followed out, without exception! This is not the case with the silver ticket placed in the box on the right.
Zhang Dashou suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
Soon the people in front of him left after redeeming the silver tickets, and when it was his turn, Zhang Dashou suddenly felt a palpitation, and the big hand trembled and decisively dispelled the idea of taking out the silver ticket, nodded and said: "I was in the wrong line, I just came to see the excitement, I'm sorry, I'm sorry." ”
After speaking, he didn't care about the dissatisfied eyes and whispers behind him, hunched over and turned around and walked away from the money village quickly.
Wang Xiang, who was standing at the door of Qianzhuang, happened to see this scene, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
I didn't expect this guy to be quite alert.
As soon as Zhang Dashou stepped out of Qianzhuang, Wang Xiang whispered to Tie Dan: "Follow him, see where he goes, if he wants to escape, he will be arrested directly." (To be continued.) )
