Ma Wenhua woke up slowly, but it was the little guy who came to report, saying that someone outside asked to see him! I took the post and looked at it, it said Yang Tong, the shopkeeper of Huitong Bank!

"Huitong Bank? What are they coming to do? Sima said to himself.

Ma Wenhua said: "What to do? If I'm not mistaken, I think I want to buy us! ”

Now that Chase Money has less than 50,000 yuan, it is impossible to face tomorrow's run, and Ma Wenhua knows that he is really helpless at this time.

The cattle bookkeeper said: "Why don't you go and ask the owner for advice?" ”

Ma Wenhua didn't mention that the owner was not so angry, and when he mentioned the owner, he suddenly became angry and said, "What bullshit owner? Now I am the proprietor, and the title deeds of the house and the shop staff are all used in my name. ”

The cow account room asked: "If you see that Yang Tong privately, won't the owner be angry?" The consequences are serious! ”

Ma Wenhua said: "Now the owner only cares about himself, and he doesn't care about our life or death." I've been to see the owner this afternoon, guess what he said? ”

Everyone didn't speak, quietly waiting for Ma Wenhua to speak, but they heard Ma Wenhua say: "The owner said, he is not the owner now, I am the owner!" Grandpa's, he withdrew all our cash, but now he doesn't admit it! If you say that you can't do anything, you will close the store! ”

When several bookkeepers heard this, they hurriedly said: "That's not good, this is our hard work!" ”

Ma Wenhua said with a gloomy face: "I don't want to either, but it will be closed tomorrow at the latest!" ”

The big guy spent a lot of effort pouring into the bank, from a young sapling, has now grown into a towering tree, and the result is so easy to be cut down, the reason for this is nothing more than that his foundation is not strong, and the foundation of the money bank - the treasury has been hollowed out.

Sima thought for a while and said, "Now the only one who can save us is Huitong, and the owner has long ignored our life and death!" In my opinion, it is better to talk to Huitong, as long as the price is right, the money can still be kept, even if it is replaced by Huitong's brand, it is okay. ”

The cow bookkeeper said: "I think it is feasible, and now there is only one way!" ”

Gao Ledger also said: "I agree with the two of you! Shopkeeper, the foundation we have worked so hard to lay, although we are not the owner, but the money is our management to have today, now the owner does not care whether it is alive or dead, but we can't ignore it! ”

Ma Wenhua was silent for a long time, and then made up his mind and said: "Since this is the case, everyone agrees, then do it!" However, let's fight for our own interests! ”

Everyone said that was of course, and the last few discussed it and decided to meet Yang Tong, after all, Datong has been abandoned by the owner.

The next morning, the Chase Bank did not open the door, but posted a notice that the Chase Bank had been transferred to the Huitong Bank, and the silver notes of the Chase Bank held by everyone could be exchanged for cash at the Huitong Bank, or after the Chase Bank opened tomorrow.

This news of the explosion soon spread throughout Hangzhou.

When Feng Manlou heard the news, he secretly shouted: "Not good! ”

Yang Hongcai asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Feng Manlou said: "Not much! Wang Ying, come in! ”

After Wang Ying entered, he only heard Feng Manlou say: "Hurry up and inform Wang Kan, let him send someone to keep an eye on Xiao Mansion, as long as someone transports things outside, they will all be stopped!" ”

Wang Ying saw that Feng Manlou was in such a hurry, and hurriedly went out.

Yang Hongcai said: "Why do I feel that this acquisition of Chase Money seems to be going well, will there be fraud in the middle?" ”

Feng Manlou said: "No, obviously, it was their owner who abandoned them, this is the practice of killing chickens and eggs, it seems that they have really made up their minds!" ”

Yang Hongcai didn't understand what Feng Manlou said, but was worried about his money bank, and asked: "Now the silver tickets of Datong, plus our own silver tickets, add up to more than 900,000 yuan, and according to the shopkeeper, it is estimated that there are still one million Chase Bank silver tickets that have not been exchanged, and the silver tickets we want to exchange are two million yuan!" But the cash of the two banks is only less than 800,000 yuan in total, will there be a problem? ”

After all, Chase Bank was also run out of business, and Yang Hongcai had to worry. But he heard Feng Manlou say: "There should be no problem, now you know the advantage of our silver ticket, right?" Some of the transactions of ordinary life have now begun to be settled with silver tickets, you think about it, who wants to carry hundreds of coppers every day, of course, it is convenient to bring a little silver tickets, as long as the silver tickets are circulated in the market, we don't have to worry about the run! ”

Yang Hongcai was still trembling, and Feng Manlou explained that the current cash has slowly turned into the role of reserves!

Yang Hongcai said: "Now the silver tickets saved in our money bank a day are less than 80,000 yuan, and it may decrease every day in the future!" It is expected that even if it stabilizes in the future, it will only be about 1.2 million yuan. But our loan hasn't started yet, and we're afraid of ...... when the time comes."

Feng Manlou is not afraid at all, at least in the county town of Yuhang

, the bank bill of Huitong Bank already has the role of currency! However, in order to worry about what Yang Hongcai had made a mistake, he still reminded: "Be careful, the number of silver tickets, never exceed two and a half times the amount of cash!" ”

"By the way, how to buy Chase Bank, let's hear it!" Feng Manlou asked.

Yang Hongcai said: "After the Chase Bank was run on yesterday, I suspected that they had no cash. So let Yang Tong run away! ”

"At first, Ma Wenhua didn't want to agree, but later Yang Tong promised that our Huitong Bank would give him one percent of the molecules, and several other account rooms accounted for one percent of the molecules, and they agreed!"

Feng Manlou said: "It seems that their owner has really made up his mind this time. I just hope it's still too late! ”

Originally, he prepared a series of combination punches, ready to deal with Chase Money, but he didn't expect to be defeated so quickly and so easily, and Feng Manlou felt as if he was punching cotton.

When I returned to the yamen at dusk yesterday, the situation of those victims was still remembered by Feng Manlou, and I couldn't bear it in my heart. took Dong Chao and Xue Ba to the riverside to take a look.

When I came to the riverside, I saw that many of the houses affected by the disaster had only some foundations left. The levee has long been destroyed, but fortunately the water comes and goes quickly!

This flood, the flood is not big, but just such a little flood has caused a disaster, and the wind is full of buildings when you think about it! If the quality of the embankment had been better, nothing like this would have happened!

I don't know who saw Feng Manlou coming, and hurriedly shouted: "Big guy, come soon, Lord Feng is here, Lord Feng is here!" ”

Feng Manlou saw everyone's appearance, and his heart ached for a while, but he saw the old man squeezing to the front and said, "My lord, do you remember the villain?" ”

Feng Manlou hurriedly said, "Uncle, how can I not remember you?" Are you their li? ”

The old man said, "My lord, the villain is the Lizheng here!" There are more than 200 families here, large and small. If the adults have not had lunch, the villain will go and prepare! ”

Feng Manlou hurriedly said: "No need, I have already used it, besides, everyone's life is also very difficult!" ”

The old man said: "Don't worry, my lord, thanks to the donation, we can maintain, I can still live these days, I'm afraid it will take a long time......"

Feng Manlou said: "Folks, don't worry. The owner of Huitong Qianzhuang, the little lady of the Yang family, said that if she wants to help everyone get through the difficulties together, she will let someone talk to you today at the latest! ”

When everyone heard this, they shouted the living Bodhisattva, many people thought it was the credit of Feng Manlou, and they were even more grateful to Feng Manlou, for hundreds of years in Yuhang County, there was no good official like Lord Feng.

The common people are like this, no matter who is in charge, as long as you are good to him, he will approve of you. Too easy.

Suddenly, a man shouted, "Look, what is that?" ”

Everyone looked in the direction that the man was pointing at, and it was the direction of the embankment, and a pile of white bones was faintly exposed! Because the flood has just receded, there is still some silt on it, and after this sun, the silt is suddenly cracked by the sun, and it shows the appearance of white bones.

Feng Manlou took Dong Chao and Xue Ba with him, and hurriedly went down to check, asked people to fetch hay, and removed the silt on it, it was really a white bone!

Feng Manlou hurriedly Xue Ba went to the yamen, brought the servants to the inspection, and brought some officials over to maintain order.

"Uncle, how can there be white bones here? The big guy lives by the river, and I think I know something! Feng Manlou asked.

The old man said: "My lord doesn't know, this embankment is built every year, and it is usually repaired, but our embankment does have to be rebuilt once a year, because every summer, when the rainstorm comes, it will be washed away, and we have long been used to escaping from floods!" That's why everyone is so poor! ”

"Why does this levee have to be repaired every year? Can't we build a dam that can last for a hundred years? Feng Manlou asked.

The old man said: "My lord doesn't know, if a dam is built that can be used for a hundred years at a time, where will those officials of the yamen still make money?" ”

Feng Manlou was stunned, could it be that there is really corruption in this, no wonder it will be repaired into a tofu scum project! He asked, "Aren't these dikes, where you live by the river, built?" ”

The old man said, "Where can we be? Every year in March, after the weather is warm, the embankment begins to be built, and when it is built, all the vicinity is fenced off, and there are fast guards guarding it, and we can't get close to it at all! Moreover, day and night, there is no night to build! ”

Feng Manlou said: "This is a good thing! ”

The old man said, "Adults don't know, these are not good things! Because the workers who built the embankment were all found from outside the country, and there were also homeless people on the streets! Every year, when I build it, I see twenty or thirty people coming to build it, but in the end, after the construction is completed, less than ten people can leave alive! ”

Feng Manlou said: "So, those people were built into the embankment? ”

The old man said, "I want to come too! ”

Feng Manlou asked, "Is there an insider, a living witness?" ”

The old man said, "There are no witnesses, those are all strangers, and even the foreman doesn't know where they came from!" Moreover, even if someone has a certificate, the money will not be easy for adults to find! ”

"Lord Qian, but Lord Bo Qian Weilun?" Feng Manlou asked.

The old man said: "It's that Lord Qian, the whole Yuhang, and it's just this Lord Qian!" Every year, the river work money allocated by the imperial court is the responsibility of this Lord Qian! ”

When Feng Manlou heard this, he couldn't help but feel the atmosphere, this Qian Weilun was simply mad, and he was also careless about human life, Feng Manlou couldn't wait to bury him on this embankment immediately.

After a while, Xue Ba and Liu Dutou took a few officials, and together with Qi Zuo, they went to the riverside, and after inspection, Wu Decai reported: "These white bones should have been dead for at least three months, and sixteen white bones were slowly excavated, but they were all broken leg bones, or shoulder bones!" ”

Feng Manlou said: "It means that these people lost their ability to work before they were born? ”

Wu Decai thought about it, nodded, and said, "It should be about the same!" ”
