At this time, no one can speak, except for saying some words to compliment Li Yongxing, he is really hesitant in his heart, thinking that others will take the lead in expressing his position, and he will just wait to follow the trend.

Li Yongxing said a few polite words to other people's compliments, and then said with a smile: "I don't count it, even the rest of you can't get a point, and our businessmen in Quanzhou have a good deal with Lord Zhizhou." Yu Shang, he can also afford the court. At this point, I will not embarrass you. If there are people who are willing to contribute to the court, just do what they can, according to the amount that Lord Zhizhou shared with everyone before, if there is really a difficulty, and you can't come up with the money, also talk to me here, and my chamber of commerce will come forward to explain to Lord Zhizhou. Our chamber of commerce is a whole, the amount of borrowed funds will be uniformly dispatched by the chamber of commerce, and the chamber of commerce will come forward to collect all the funds and hand them over to the government, so that those who are in difficulty, or who really can't draw funds for a while, will not be embarrassed. What do you think? ”

Banniang's eyes lit up.

If an individual hands it over to the government, this is a personal act, and although the dispersion of the money has met the requirements of the prefect, and even far exceeds the expectations of the court, it may not be able to end up with anything good, and what can be beneficial is just a few of them who have more money.

And if this is done, those who have less money will not be able to do well in the case of Lord Zhizhou, even if they have more money. And those who really have difficulties and can't get the money will naturally have no way back.

Although the merchants of Quanzhou usually go their own way, the rapid development of Quanzhou Port over the years has made it absolutely inseparable from the relationship with the merchants of Quanzhou to unite and advance and retreat together.

Li Yongxing, as a pivotal figure in Quanzhou Commercial Bank, really has his extraordinary.

For example, if the Chamber of Commerce comes forward to borrow money, the benefits are self-evident.

If each loan is borrowed, it will be easy for the court not to repay the money in the future, and even if it is repaid, it is too easy to discount. The merchant is weak, how to confront the court?

And by the Chamber of Commerce, because the whole amount is huge, the court wants to fool the past, but I am afraid that it will not be easy. Even if it is really impossible to repay this huge amount of money on time, it will definitely give an accurate statement, or it will start from somewhere else to make up for this amount.

The most important thing is that Quanzhou this time, by a chamber of commerce, unified out a huge amount of money, compared with the scattered funds of other provinces, for the court and those officials and lords of the audio-visual impact, what is the difference between heaven and earth?

All of a sudden, everyone thought of the benefits.

This is the real old ginger. Banniang couldn't help but secretly introspect, the past few years have been too smooth, so that she has a feeling that in business, the ability is far better than others, now that I think about it, there are people outside the world, there is a sky outside the sky, only Li Yongxing in front of him, there are too many places that are beyond her reach. She still has so much to learn.

Banniang was sincerely impressed and took the lead in applauding: "If this is the case, it is really a proper measure." ”

At this time, everyone's hearts were settled. Except for those who really have no funds, the others have also clarified the amount they can borrow one by one, Li Yongxing asked the account office to write them down one by one, and asked everyone to press the seal on the paperwork, and this matter is even ordered.

In this way, there are 614,000 yuan.

Everyone was happy about it. Li Yongxing secretly asked people to invite Lord Zhizhou. The deadline for payment was agreed with everyone, and when everyone wanted to get up and say goodbye, Li Yongxing smiled and said, "Brothers, don't be in a hurry to leave." Today is also a major event of our Quanzhou Chamber of Commerce, how can we not celebrate? I have gone to prepare a dinner party, and the order is the banquet of our Banniang's Sheraton Restaurant, and the last time Banniang also gave me some good wine, I have never been willing to drink, this time I also took it out, we will not get drunk tonight. ”

At this time, it was almost time for dinner, and seeing his enthusiasm, it was rare for the entire Chamber of Commerce to gather so together, and there was nothing to delay in one night, so they all stayed.

While waiting for dinner, Li Yongxing discussed with everyone about the fundraising of those retail investors.

Those retail investors, if they are individuals, naturally can't take much money, but since they borrow in the name of the Chamber of Commerce, they can't leave them. And now, although there are more than 600,000 yuan, it has exceeded Quanzhou's borrowing task. However, the state capitals such as Guangzhou, which are also port cities, as well as the large state capitals such as Yingtianfu, and the cities with developed salt merchant shipping such as Yangzhou, may not be without the possibility of surpassing them.

Even if you put so much effort into it, you either don't do it, you have to do it, and you just do it first. If it is an individual, it is natural to grab the first bird, in the name of the Chamber of Commerce, it is to gather the strength of the businessmen in Quanzhou, and to be the first, the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages. Although the amount of money that can be lent by small households is small, it is a considerable amount of money because of the large number of people and the good operation.

After some discussion, it was agreed that the Chamber of Commerce would hold a meeting, send a few people who were specifically responsible, and convene retail investors to discuss respectively, and then the people from the Chamber of Commerce would coordinate and arrange them. It was agreed that within three days, the specific amount should be determined, and within half a month, all payments must be paid to the state government in full.

As soon as the discussion was over, the steward of the Li Mansion came to report that Lord Zhizhou had arrived.

Li Yongxing hurriedly led everyone out.

Because the person sent did not say what Li Yongxing invited him to the Li Mansion for, Lord Zhizhou did not know why Li Yongxing invited him to come. If it is usual, he naturally wants to take the driver, but in the past few days, the heads of several major commercial houses in Quanzhou have avoided him like a snake and scorpion, this Li Yongxing is even more slippery, he is anxious to think of a way, can catch Li Yongxing and others to meet, I don't want Li Yongxing to send someone to invite him, no matter how busy he is, he is bound to come this time.

Unexpectedly, the team of people who came to greet him were almost the bosses of the major commercial houses in Quanzhou, and they couldn't help but be stunned there.

Which one is Li Yongxing singing? Didn't the Chamber of Commerce come forward to bargain with him?

The prefect's heart suddenly felt bad.

In fact, this prefect, surnamed Liu Yongtong, is fifty years old, and his third uncle is in the same department, and he has also promoted Banniang's business in Quanzhou in recent years.

Originally, when he received the court's official letter on the loan this time, Liu Yongtong planned to start from Sheraton Banniang.

He is the parent official of Quanzhou, Quanzhou is a coastal city, not mainly farming, commercial taxes account for ninety percent of the entire state's fiscal and tax revenue, so he is also well aware of the situation of Quanzhou's commercial banks. Naturally, I know that the little Baniang of the Zeng family looks at the completely harmless smile and grin all day, but she is among the businessmen in Quanzhou, and she doesn't dare to say a word, but no one can not take her words seriously, and they all have to worry about a few.

It's a pity that Banniang has been living in the capital for more than a year, and is not in Quanzhou.

Lord Liu of Zhizhou felt bad, but he found the figure of Banniang behind Li Yongxing and the others, and his heart was finally slightly at ease.

Although the businessman is profitable, but Zeng Banniang talked to him more than once or twice, the Zeng family is the home of the official eunuchs, and the ordinary businessmen are very different, the court loan is very important, Zeng Banniang has a very important influence among these people, even if it is the Hongmen banquet today, if he finds a way to disturb Zeng Banniang, and then exert the official prestige of the years, and lay the court with a considerable loan interest that is better than the general loan, I believe that he can still get a part of the money.

He is the parent official of Quanzhou, so naturally he has to think more about the people under his jurisdiction. Therefore, when I received the shared loan task of 400,000 yuan, I first gave a 20% discount. He has been an official for many years, so he didn't know that the task given by the court also had water in the middle. If according to the actual needs of the court, all Kakar are distributed to the state capitals, and there are always state capitals that cannot be completed in accordance with the quantity, wouldn't it really be a major matter of the court war?

This kind of thing, not to seek merit, but to seek no fault, almost, it will become, he will not be transferred to another post in the past two years, and he will continue to serve in Quanzhou, but he does not want to risk offending these businessmen in Quanzhou to fight for a court award. Speaking of which, who is not a backer behind these businessmen? If he really offended everyone, he would almost have done it as an official.

Although the merchant is weak, in this port city where the commercial tax is almost all the financial revenue, the quality of his official position and political performance have to fall on these people in the end.

The demands he had made to the various firms had already been subject to bargaining. Looking at today's battle together, it is naturally for this matter. When the time comes, talk about it, and finally put some water and reduce the amount, so that these businessmen who can't afford to make profits early also feel that it is better to talk than not to talk, and finally have less money, and finally make a decision. I can pay this errand myself.

Thinking like this, Liu Yongtong's heart settled.

Seeing everyone saluting together, Lord Liu raised his hand to signal everyone to be exempted, and laughed: "This official wanted to summon you a few days ago, but it was more difficult than ascending to the sky, why did you want to give me a surprise today, all together, could it be that Master Li understood the difficulties of this official and invited this official to solve his worries and solve difficulties?" In this way, this official has to thank you, Master Li. ”

Although he said it with a smile, the content was neither soft nor hard.

Li Yongxing said with a smile while letting people into the main seat of the flower hall: "The villain doesn't dare." But it's also called the adult, you said, this time the villain really wants to surprise the adult and solve problems for the adult. It's just that a few days ago, things were too busy, and they were still preparing, because they were not sure, they didn't dare to talk in front of adults, so they waited until today. ”

When Liu Yongtong heard this, his heart jumped suddenly, but he sat down silently, and said with a smile: "Oh, this is strange to the official, could it be that Master Li also knows that the official has not eaten and slept well recently, and he is only sad and white?" If it is said to be a happy event, then say it quickly, so that the official may be happy. Perhaps, this body that I am almost sick of, listening to your good news, it is like taking a panacea, and it will be cured in an instant. ”

Speaking of this, Liu Yongtong seemed to have just discovered Banniang, turned his face to Banniang and smiled very kindly: "Niece of the Zeng family, when will you go back to Quanzhou?" ”

Banniang hurriedly said: "I only came back yesterday, I was supposed to visit my uncle's house, but it was delayed because there was something to discuss in the Chamber of Commerce." When things are done, I will definitely go to the house to visit my aunt. ”

Because he saw Banniang wearing a plain dress of filial piety, Liu Yongtong smiled, only in front of everyone, it was inconvenient to speak, sighed, and said: "Your father died, and I only heard my colleagues mention it not long ago. ”

Banniang thought of the father who used to love him the most, and also showed her face, and she couldn't help but blush.
