Chapter 64: The Money Village Turmoil (1)

"Huh! The third prince is really a downright person, extremely filial piety to the emperor, the old slave will help the third prince to maneuver one or two, His Royal Highness is busy with money, the old slave does not dare to delay His Royal Highness more, otherwise the old slave will be guilty. Xiao Jian said that, he picked up the teacup and slowly stirred the tea with the tea lid, and there was a clear answer at this time.

"Hehe, Xiao Gong, Yi Yu still has some things to deal with, my father will ask Xiao Gong to help me talk about the item, Yi Yu will leave first!" Xia Yiyu got up with a bright smile and bowed, this is a rush.

The streamer is fleeting, half a month has passed in a blink of an eye, today Xia Yiyu is the day when he promised the emperor to allocate funds to the inner treasury, Xia Yiyu took Xie Yufei to the royal money village in the west city early in the morning, first went to the underground silver treasury to count the cash, and saw how much silver the money in the two cities could withdraw, although Xia Yiyu knew that it was difficult to withdraw the silver and allocate it to the inner treasury now, but he couldn't give it if he agreed.

"Your Highness, when the East Market closed yesterday afternoon, according to His Highness's instructions, the silver treasury has been counted, and there are 197,3567 pieces of silver. West Market now has 173,6843 yuan in cash. Two hundred thousand taels of silver. The official in charge of the underground treasury reported.

Xia Yiyu took the accounts and looked at them carefully, and now he has also learned the use of punctuation marks in tables, Arabic numerals, and numbers.

The merit of creating a doctrine made Emperor Xiyuan Longyan happy, which can be praised through the ages and passed on for centuries, so Emperor Xiyuan has been happy every day recently.

After Xie Yufei listened to the amount of silver deposited in the two cities, he always felt strange in his heart, why is there not much difference in the amount of silver deposited in the two cities? What is even more strange is why this deposit is not growing day by day, but borrowing more and more? It stands to reason that there should not be such a situation, Xie Yufei didn't understand finance in his previous life, but in the information age, he can be more or less infected, he has never seen a pig run, and he has also eaten pork.

"Yu Fei, how much money do you think is appropriate??" Xia Yiyu frowned, the amount of silver deposited was too small, and it was too different from what he expected from the development of the situation half a month ago, but fortunately, there was room when he promised Xiao Jian, and he didn't say how much.

"Lu Dianshi, please go up to the front desk and count how much money you have!" Xie Yufei didn't answer, but turned his head to the official next to him and said.

The official took the order and left, and Xie Yufei walked up to Xia Yiyu and whispered in his ear, "Cousin! I always feel weird! Someone has malicious intentions to manipulate the deposit and withdrawal of the bank! ”

It was the first time that the beauty automatically got so close, and the bodies of the two had already touched, full of warm fragrance, although Xia Yiyu was also a little uneasy, but Xia Yiyu didn't dare to put his mind here at the moment.

"Yu Fei, what do you think they want to do?"

Xie Yufei was in a heavy mood and said: "When the money in the bank is getting less and less, control the run!" ”

Xia Yiyu frowned tighter when he heard this, and his heart was shocked, "Who do you think it will be?" ”

"I don't know, the eldest prince and the second prince are all possible!" Of course, Xie Yufei didn't know.

"Then is this money no longer available to my father?" Xia Yiyu asked helplessly.

Xie Yufei raised his eyebrows and replied: "If you want to dial it, you will definitely allocate 100,000 taels, isn't there still some gravel in the miscellaneous room next to the underground silver warehouse?" Tell the palace guards to load ten boxes of stones, spread silver on them, and send them to the palace in person, and report to the emperor according to the truth, and pay attention to secrecy. "In order to make it easy to count the ancient cash box, there was a thin wooden board separating each layer.

At noon, a group of guards carried ten boxes of heavy silver out of the underground treasury, Xia Yiyu wrote a loan on the withdrawal book: next million, wrote the date and signed the name, and pressed a thumbprint on the name and date he wrote, and then personally took the silver to the palace treasury for delivery.

The second prince's mansion is in the backyard, the exquisite small courtyard in the bamboo forest in the east, the second prince is playing chess with Zhuang Jing, the two talk and laugh between the hands, Zhuang Jing is a person who understands the way of welcome, during which the second prince laughed several times, this is not a serious and quiet atmosphere when playing chess.

"Your Highness, there is news from over there, the third prince has just sent ten heavy boxes into the palace, and the one who came back to report that the guards were very difficult to carry the boxes into the carriage, and they were obviously full of silver." A subordinate came in to report.

"Hmmm! Go down and get a reward of ten taels of silver! The second prince waved his hand expressionlessly and motioned for him to go out.

Just come in and report the news, you will be rewarded with ten taels, which shows how happy the second prince is in his heart. Zhuang Jing just smiled and said nothing, just waiting for the second prince to ask.

After the subordinate retreated, the second prince's face was full of joy, and he looked at Zhuang Jing and said excitedly: "Sir, my father is helping us, sir, do you think you can start it in advance?" If they don't take action, the silver in the hands of those proprietors won't last for two days, and they can't take out too much money. The eldest brother probably won't be able to hold on yesterday. ”

Zhuang Jing bowed slightly, he knew that the second prince was in a hurry...

Zhuang Jing groaned: "Hehe! Your Highness, the money they handle is borrowed from the Royal Bank and then deposited, and they have not used much of their own money. But... It's time to act, the emperor has sent a good time, and if it drags on, there may be variables. ”

"Good!" The second prince's face was serious, he slapped his palm four times, and then a figure flashed in the room.

The second prince looked at his subordinates who knelt down in front of him and said, "You go and give orders!" ”

"Subordinates obey!"

Zhuang Jingwan said with a smile: "The main source of money for the cabinet is to charge storage fees, and the money is the foundation of the survival of the cabinet.

Not only do they not charge custody fees but also give interest, low-interest lending cuts off their way of life, which is not comparable to malicious competition, the royal money is considered to be a move to benefit the country and the people, but this people do not include those who make a fortune by putting money in print. ”

Therefore, the eldest prince and the second prince can use them and encourage them to make a move behind their backs, and they dare not make a move without a strong backer behind them. But the only backer they know is the eldest prince. The second prince borrowed the hands of others to manipulate behind the scenes.

After Xia Yiyu came out of the palace, he pulled Xie Yufei into the office room on the third floor, the door was closed, and two secret guards were guarding outside, no one was allowed to approach.

"Stop! His Highness ordered that no one should come near! A guard stepped forward and stopped the scribe who wanted to get closer to the room.

"I have something very important to look for Your Highness, Your Highness! Your Highness! Something big is going on out there! The scribe who came in a hurry couldn't see the three princes, so he could only shout outside the door.

"Squeak" The door opened, and Xia Yiyu and the others walked out.

"What's going on?" Xia Yiyu asked in a calm tone.

"Your Highness! It is rumored that there is no silver deposit in the royal bank, and even the people's deposits have been embezzled, and now the lobby on the first floor is crowded with people who come to withdraw money, and there are more than 40 people in the VIP area on the second floor who have come to withdraw money!! When the scribe saw Xia Yiyu, he said a lot.

Xia Yiyu's face was heavy after hearing this, and they couldn't imagine that there were so many people who came to withdraw money, but they were afraid that most of them came with bad intentions.
