Chapter 1008: The Beginning (4K)
"Hasn't Chase Money been besieged?" She asked.
Cui Jing shook his head: "No." After a pause, he seemed to hesitate a little, and said, "The money bank's business is not the same. ”
Wei Yaoqing nodded, and she didn't know if she understood.
Instead, Ye Xiuyuan hurriedly beckoned him to sit down.
"However, the suspension of Baicaotang and Lu Ji Mizhuang at least proves that Dashang still cherishes his century-old foundation." Wei Yaoqing sighed, "The efforts of several generations, it's a pity that it's so gone!" ”
"There's a saying called jealousy." Pei Zongzhi sat down beside her and looked at Cui Jing, "He came to take advantage of the chaos to rob." ”
"The Compassion Hall is his family." Wei Yaoqing looked at Pei Zongzhi, "The mall is ruthless, and it can be understood." ”
After Pei Zongzhi looked at her for a moment, he turned his head to look at Cui Jing: "Are you here to take advantage of Baicaotang?" ”
This was said as if Cui Jing was a villain, Ye Xiuyuan's face was full of embarrassment, and he looked at the other three, Mr. Pei was asking seriously, and the Great Heavenly Master was watching the excitement, Cui Jing said calmly: "I'm just here to supervise the unclear accounts of Baicaotang." ”
"It turns out that the Cui family is not called taking advantage, it is called superintendent!" Pei Zongzhi sighed with emotion, glanced at Cui Jing, and said, "Don't mind, I'm just casually sighing." ”
Cui Jing looked at him for a moment and said, "It turns out that the people in the actual temple don't call scolding, it's called emotion, but Jing understands it." ”
Ye Xiuyuan was rarely clever, and realized that something was not quite right, and looked at Wei Yaoqing and wanted her to come forward to stop drinking, but the girl in the room was laughing and happy.
A meeting seems to have broken up.
Ye Xiuyuan glanced at Wei Yaoqing, who was accompanying Pei Zongzhi, and hurriedly followed Cui Jing, who went out alone.
After trotting all the way out for a long time, until he was sure that the two deaf and clear-eyed people in the room really couldn't hear it, Cui Jing suddenly stopped and looked back at him: "I know what you want to ask, the sixth lady of the Wei family once had a marriage contract with me." ”
Rival in love? Ye Xiuyuan was stunned.
saw Cui Jing shake his head again and said, "But it shouldn't be alone." "It shouldn't be the one who has a marriage contract with him now.
"He looked at me very well." Cui Jing said again.
Ye Xiuyuan came back to his senses and couldn't help but ask, "Do you like the Great Heavenly Master too?" ”
If that's the case, then it's troublesome! Ye Xiuyuan was secretly frightened.
"Nope." Cui Jing glanced at him, replied without hesitation, paused and said, "But being able to be manipulated by others is also a skill." ”
Ye Xiuyuan listened to Cui Jing's voice in his stunned ear: "So, if you don't want to see the excitement next time, try to let me meet this person as little as possible." ”
Having said that, if he arranges it like this again, wouldn't it confirm the fact that he wants to "watch the excitement"? The liveliness of the Cui family can be seen casually? Facing Cui Jing's cold gaze, Ye Xiuyuan nodded vigorously.
……
"Hahaha, did you mean it?" After Cui Jing left, Wei Yaoqing reached out and pulled Pei Zongzhi's hair, leaning back and laughing, "Why did Cui Jing offend you?" There was a bit of incredulity in his tone, "There are really few people who don't like Cui Jing, and even I think it's a pleasure to cooperate with such a person!" ”
Pei Zongzhi frowned, as if he wanted to say something, but the words changed when he came to his mouth, and he said, "It's better to call that Wang Xu." ”
……
Wang Xu, who was walking around the streets of the capital, sneezed violently.
"Lord Wang!" Several colleagues shouted at him, and then looked at him in a summer official robe and said, "It's autumn, the autumn is cold and heavy, but it's not cooler than summer." ”
Wang Xu nodded and said, "I stayed up late last night to deal with the case again." Hey, Cui Jing's house is good, he took annual leave in advance and ran away, piling all the things of the officials on me......" At this point, there was obviously a little more resentment in his voice, "I also want to go out of Beijing to Jinan to have a look." "But my grandfather didn't let him stay in the capital, after Jiang Zhongze passed away, Lord Ning, who temporarily replaced the secretary of the ministry, was very old, but he was going to return to his hometown in a few years, and when the time came, he had to choose from among the waiters, and the waiters would be vacant. Of course, Wang Xu understood what Old Lady Wang meant, but he was a little resentful in his heart.
Those colleagues also laughed, they were also clear about the affairs of the Cui and Wang families, and only persuaded when they heard the words: "Xiao Cui is going to Jinan to deal with the matter of Baicaotang, after all, that matter also involves the Cixin Hall, Xiao Wang is also not happy, my Chang'an beauty is not as good as Jinan?" ”
"To each his own good." Wang Xu said, his eyes flickering. It's just that there is a person in Jinan, where there is that person, something will definitely happen, but this time my grandfather said that he would not let him leave Chang'an. Progress can only be known through the letters that come in from all over the world, but no matter how fast the letters are, they are no faster than what they have seen with their own eyes. He raised his head as he spoke, his eyes slightly condensed, "I can't drink with you today, there seems to be something going on at home." ”
The two carriages were speeding in their direction, and the people in the carriages lifted the curtains and were looking around, and the moment their eyes fell on them, they couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and greeted the coachman, and the carriage stopped beside them.
A middle-aged man who looked like a steward got out of the carriage and walked quickly to Wang Xu and gave a salute: "Childe! ”
Wang Xu said to his colleagues on the side: "This is the steward of my family's money bank." ”
The steward of Hengtong Bank! Several officials stepped aside and deliberately took a few steps away to let them speak.
After the steward gave a salute, he got up and said, "Childe, the key to the No. 9 private vault is here with you?" The bank needs to open a treasury. ”
Wang Xu nodded, reached out to touch the key in his sleeve pocket, and explained: "Yesterday, I opened the library and took a set of tea sets from my grandfather's treasure and put them in the tea room, and I didn't have time to send them back." ”
As he spoke, he handed the key he had taken out to the steward, looking at his eager look, he wondered in his heart: "Why did Qian Zhuang suddenly open a private treasury?" Is it to be audited? ”
The steward shook his head, sighed helplessly, and said, "It's to take silver." ”
Wang Xu was surprised: "What do you do with the silver taels?" ”
The steward raised his hand and said, "It's not a Chase money bank...... yet."
Wang Xu was even more surprised, and even a few officials who had originally retreated to the side couldn't help but come over when they heard this: "Didn't the matter of Chase Money Bank stop?" ”
"It's stopped." The steward weighed it slightly, and he didn't hide it from everyone, and he said, "But does Childe know how long the Chase Money Bank lasted with a triple interest cashier?" ”
"I remember seven or eight days." An official on the side answered, "But something is wrong?" ”
"Big or small." The steward said, "Seven days is enough for the people who trust the century-old store of Chase Money to deposit the real money they have in hand." ”
"What about saving it?" The official was even more puzzled, "There must be a few spare money on hand that can be saved, and nothing should happen to it!" ”
The steward sighed and shook his head helplessly: "It hasn't happened yet, but in the past few days, I have come to get tickets and get silver." ”
"My Hengtong Bank is also a time-honored brand, can't I still trust the bills of Hengtong Bank?" Wang Xu frowned puzzled, "What's the matter?" ”
"It's the southwest side that has an accident!" The steward's tone was a little helpless.
Southwest? Southwest again? Several officials glanced at each other, and their hearts were also alerted.
The first thing to do with a few big businessmen was Baicaotang and Lu Ji Mizhuang, but now these two have stopped, and Qianzhuang has an accident again?
"In the past few days, people in the southwest have been taking bills to exchange for real money, and some people even want to withdraw money at the expense of ten years of profits." When the steward said this, he couldn't help but shake his head, "My Hengtong Money Bank naturally can't refuse." ”
"The Hengtong treasury in the cities of the southwest province has been empty, and it has been transferred from the neighboring state capital in the past few days."
Such a large transfer of money is not a small action, and the transfer of money in the treasury has already provoked many impatient people who can't sit still and begin to withdraw money.
The Langya Wang family's big business and wealth can still bear it, and some smaller money houses are almost unable to hold on, in the final analysis, because the southwest mansion is in chaos first.
"If you move the whole body, if you mess up one place, everything else will follow." The official who was listening on the side sighed, "I originally thought that Qianzhuang was the most stable, and I said that I would stop it, but now it seems that this is the most troublesome." ”
Wang Xu didn't answer this, but asked the steward again: "Because of the stop, the branches and even the head office of Baicaotang and Lu Ji Mizhuang in several cities in the southwest have been smashed and looted by the people, and Datong Qianzhuang has been fine?" ”
The steward nodded: "It's okay." Qian Zhuang is not better than selling herbs and rice, he is in the silver money business, as long as the money is locked and the account books are stored well, even if the store is smashed, it will be fine. "Therefore, it can be said that Chase Money Village did not encounter these troubles of Lu Ji Mizhuang and Bai Caotang.
"How does that sound like a bunch of people?" The fellow officials couldn't help but sigh, "I heard that the southwest province is under Chen Shan's rule, and the people's livelihood is rich, but now this kind of thing has been done...... This...... Isn't this Diao Min? ”
Wang Xu was silent for a moment, then slowly shook his head: "Maybe Diao people, good people, they are just people." "Wait...... He seemed to have caught something that was overlooked, something that was overlooked when the good news ahead.
"I'm going to the Household Department!" left this sentence without a beginning or an end, and before everyone could react, Wang Xu had already strode away.
……
……
"Two more cities have been lost!" There was a crackling sound in the tent.
Chen Li trembled and pointed to the map behind him and scolded: "In addition to the Southwest Mansion, how many are left?" ”
"You didn't shoot it down? It's not your turn to be distressed! A charlatan said while picking his nose.
This is hurtful, and it is indeed a big truth. Chen Li's face turned from blue to white, his lips trembled, and he finally closed his mouth and sat down silently.
Those few people in the rivers and lakes didn't pay attention to him, and only took care of their own things.
After Chen Li sat for a while, he finally looked up, looked at the oldest man sitting in the corner, and said, "You...... Let's arrange the arrangement! I want to meet the master you mentioned. ”
Mr. Yi nodded, and immediately heard a burst of relief in his ears, these people could stay in this barracks for so long, it was really beyond his imagination. In the final analysis, the blood in the bones is better than Su Ri's self-doing and fooling around!
……
"Great Heavenly Master, where are you going?" Ye Xiuyuan blurted out as soon as he came in.
After saying this, I was also stunned.
No one said to leave, the two people in the room were sitting opposite each other to eat, the table was as rich as every morning, Mr. Pei had a plate of candied fruit in his hand, and his mouth was bulging.
I don't know why, he blurted out this sentence.
"I'll go out in a minute." The girl looked back at him while eating seriously and asked, "Do you want to sit down and eat together?" ”
"Xia Guan has eaten it." Ye Xiuyuan said.
The girl sighed and continued to eat with her head down.
Ye Xiuyuan sat down on the side, his gaze falling on them. Only then did I notice that both of them had changed into strong clothes that were convenient for travel. Probably because of this, he felt that they were going to go out? Ye Xiuyuan found a reason for himself.
After the last bite of the bun was finished, the girl put down the dishes and chopsticks in her hand and looked at him.
"Lord Ye, what are you looking for us?"
It's okay Ye Xiuyuan won't run in front of them casually, especially since Cui Jing came, this move has become more and more obvious.
Ye Xiuyuan sighed, took out the letter in his arms and put it on the table, and then said, "The letter from the capital, let me show it to you." ”
"There must be something difficult." Wei Yaoqing glanced at him with a smile, took the letter and looked at it, she read it quickly, but she put the letter away after a few breaths, and then gave it back to him, but she didn't say what was written in the letter, just said to him, "Remember to help me say thank you to Wang Xu, he really has a heart." ”
"Great Heavenly Master, is there anything you want me to do?" Ye Xiuyuan accepted the letter and asked her, "If you have anything to do, just give an order." ”
"Not for the time being, if we don't go out, if you don't understand anything, just ask Cui Jing." Wei Yaoqing said, "You are a good person who reads, but your head is not so bright, but the advantage of benevolence overshadows all your shortcomings, so it can be saved." ”
"How can a parent be without benevolence?" The girl seemed to be a little emotional.
Is it a reminder of him? Ye Xiuyuan nodded seriously. Then watching the two of them stand up, the girl smiled and said to him: "I'll do the matter of your wife's return to Chang'an, don't always trouble General Wang!" When I come back after finishing this, I will take your wife back to Chang'an," paused, and with Ye Xiuyuan's excited expression, the girl suddenly said, "Maybe I can take you back with me." ”
Ye Xiuyuan hurriedly waved his hand and said: "The world is still in chaos, and the lower officials, as the Yin of Jinan Mansion, can't run around." When the world is stable, I will take leave and return to Chang'an to make amends to my father-in-law. ”
Wei Yaoqing just smiled, noncommittal, and then reached out and dragged Pei Zongzhi who walked to his side, turned around and waved his hand at him: "Let's go out, the burden is still left with you, you don't want to lose it." ”
"Not really." Ye Xiuyuan blurted out, "The people of Jinan are simple, and I have never lost anything in the government. ”
"That's good." The girl looked at him with a smile, thought for a while, and said, "I see that the Heavenly Master Ancestral Hall is almost finished, you must keep an eye on it, and you can't have a little difference!" ”
Today, for some reason, his eyes were a little hot, Ye Xiuyuan nodded heavily, blinked his eyes, walked to the tuyere and blew the wind: "That's nature, Great Heavenly Master rest assured." ”
The two had already taken a few steps forward while talking, but the girl suddenly stopped, turned around and opened her mouth to shout, "Lord Ye." ”
Ye Xiuyuan subconsciously looked up at her.
The girl smiled at him, a little glaring in the sun.
"Be a good officer!" She said.
Ye Xiuyuan was stunned, and tears fell for some reason.
