Unlike other shops, the Silver Horn is not a place to sell things, but a place to store them. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The people deposited the silver into the Kaiyuan silver number, and every sum of money was accounted for, and together it was the general ledger. And when the Kaiyuan silver number was seized, there was also a general ledger of how much silver was confiscated in total.

The two general ledgers are compared together, and the gap in the middle is the hole.

20 million taels of holes, this shows that the Song family still has at least 20 million taels of silver in their hands, how many people can be bought to work for Song Cen willingly?

And this hole can't be left there yet, it has to be filled by the imperial court. When everything is in ruins, it costs money everywhere, and where does the imperial court have so much silver to fill this big hole?

If the imperial court sits idly by, the people who can't get the money back from the silver account will not vent their grievances on the Song family, but will only resent the imperial court, and if they don't get it right, there will be new turmoil.

This is the fundamental reason why the emperor is reluctant to move the Cai family and the Song family.

The two families have their own money banks, and they are both time-honored brands in the Wind Country, and they have a lot of private wealth in their hands.

In fact, in terms of the strength and scale of the Kaiyuan Silver Horn, the hole of only 20 million taels is not too big, but for ordinary people, this is already an astronomical amount.

How much silver did Kaiyuan Silver lose in total, it was a matter of government affairs, it was a financial problem, and it was not under the control of the Duwei Mansion, You Ling didn't care too much about it, but he couldn't help but pay attention to how much silver the rebel party had in his hands, which involved the strength of the rebel party.

In state affairs, seemingly unrelated issues are in fact inextricably linked.

Shangguan Xiu sighed lightly and said: Song Cen's whereabouts must be ascertained as soon as possible, and the Song family's underground vault and silver treasury must be ascertained as soon as possible, otherwise, even if Song Cen is captured and the traitorous party is cracked, Zhang San and Li Si of the Song family may emerge in the future to reorganize the rebel party, and the harm is endless.

Wechen understood.

Wipe out all these traitorous strongholds that have been identified, and go to work!

Yes, Your Highness! You Ling agreed, but stood still and did not leave.

Shangguan Xiu was puzzled and asked, "Is there anything else to do with Lord You?"

Your Highness, it is reported that yesterday the Great Elder of the Divine Pond suddenly visited the Zhenguo Mansion, and then His Highness hurried to the Divine Pond, is there something important in the Divine Pond? You Ling asked curiously.

Shangguan Xiu casually grabbed the inkstone on the table and smashed it directly at You Ling's head.

You Ling was so frightened that he hurriedly lowered his head, and with a bang, the inkstone smashed the wall and rebounded to the ground. Shangguan Xiu said angrily: I asked you to investigate the traitorous party, what are you doing to investigate me? Is there a traitorous party in my Zhenguo Mansion?

Wechen is out of protection for His Royal Highness...... Before he finished speaking, seeing Shangguan Xiu's eyes lowered and fell on the paperweight again, You Ling didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly bowed down and said: Your Highness, Weichen is leaving! After speaking, the person has already run out of the imperial study.

Seeing You Ling's embarrassed appearance of running away, Shangguan Xiu was angry and funny, bypassed the table, picked up the inkstone on the ground, and wiped it carefully, but fortunately it was not broken.

He turned his head sideways and said, "Yufei."

Brother Xiu!

Find money to come in.

Wu Yufei agreed, and walked out quickly.

After more than half an hour, Qian Jin's round body swayed in from the outside. Looking at Qian Jin's increasingly fat posture, Shangguan Xiu reminded worriedly: Ah Jin, you are too fat now.

Qian Jin grinned, he didn't need Shangguan Xiu to give up his seat, he had already sat down on the side with a big grin, and said: Brother Xiu, I am fat and in good health!

Shangguan Xiu shook his head, and when the palace maid brought the tea, he asked: What do you think about the Kaiyuan Silver Number?

Qian Jin didn't answer immediately, but asked: What does Brother Xiu think?

Shangguan Xiu pondered for a moment and said, "I plan to take over all the Kaiyuan Silver Horns."

Qian Jin showed such an expression, and he said slowly: As far as I know, the Kaiyuan Silver Account is only on the books, and there is a deficit of at least 20 million taels, which is not counting the loss of valuables, if this piece is also counted, the deficit should be no less than 25 million taels, once we take over, this hole can only be filled by us.

Shangguan Xiu asked: So, if we take over the Kaiyuan Silver Account, will it be counted or not?

Qian Jin shrugged his shoulders and said: Of course it doesn't count! The housing and housing industries in various parts of the Kaiyuan Silver Horn will not exceed 2 million taels when they are combined and fully calculated, and we will take over the Kaiyuan Silver Horn, and the net loss will be more than 23 million taels of silver.

So, we're at a loss by doing that.

Qian Jin smiled and said: If no one comes to take over the Kaiyuan Silver Number, then this hole, ten of the * will be filled by the imperial court, the treasury of the imperial court is not abundant, and it will not be able to take out so much silver, in the end, this silver will still be distributed among the heads of the ministers, and Brother Xiu and the Cai family will take the lion's share, and it will be less than seven or eight million taels.

Shangguan Xiu said: Taking over the Kaiyuan Silver Account, we will lose more than 20 million taels, and if we don't take over the Kaiyuan Silver Number, we will still lose seven or eight million taels.

Qian Jin said: If you don't take over, you will lose a lot of money, but you will never get it back in the future, and if you take over, although you will lose a lot of money, you can still earn it back in the long run.

Shangguan Xiu's eyes lit up, and he said with a smile: "Ah Jin, tell me why this is?"

Qian Jin said: Brother Xiu thinks that our Sitong Silver is in the Wind Country, can it be regarded as the No. 1 money bank?

Shangguan Xiu shook his head slowly and said: Although Sitong Silver has developed rapidly, it has always been suppressed by the Cai family's Baofeng Qianzhuang.

In the country of wind, the hegemony of Baofeng Qianzhuang is beyond doubt, especially after the fall of the Song family and the seizure of the Kaiyuan silver number, Baofeng Qianzhuang is even more dominant, and there is a tendency to keep pace with the official Qianzhuang.

Yes, we are developing so fast, but we still can't compare to Baofeng Qianzhuang, why, we obviously have Zhenjun behind the support, the silver in our hands is more than Baofeng Qianzhuang, and the strength is stronger than Baofeng Qianzhuang, but the first choice for the people to save silver is Baofeng Qianzhuang, not our Sitong Yinhao. Baofeng Money Zhuang is a time-honored brand for hundreds of years, and people's trust in Baofeng Money Village has long been deep-rooted, no matter how fast the development of Sitong Silver Horn is, and how strong the strength is, compared with Baofeng Money Village, people feel that it is always a little bit worse.

Taking over the Kaiyuan Silver Account can make up for this gap?

That's right, Brother Xiu! Kaiyuan Silver is a mess now, no one dares to take over, if we take over Sitong Yinhao, it will undoubtedly greatly change the image of Sitong Silver in the hearts of the people, and will no longer make people think that we are nouveau riche, but responsible everyone. The benefits of responsibility will not only win the reputation of the people, but also win the trust of the people, for the money bank, there is nothing more important than trust, trust is the foundation of the money bank!

Speaking of this, Qian Jin smiled, took a sip of tea, and continued: After taking over the Kaiyuan Yinhao, I believe that at least more than eighty percent of the old customers of the Kaiyuan Yinhao will choose to stay in our Sitong Yinhao, in the short term, we may not be able to earn back the deficit of more than 20 million taels of silver, but in the long run, our income is by no means measurable by 20 million taels of silver.

After listening to Qian Jin's analysis, Shangguan Xiu felt a sense of openness, and finally made up his mind.

In fact, Qian Jin didn't tell him this, his original intention was to take over the Kaiyuan Silver Account, otherwise, he wouldn't have made a special trip to find Qian Jin and ask about it.

But when you ask him why he did it, he can't tell why he wants to do it, and he can't explain the reason, but he intuitively wants to do it.

Now Qian Jin's explanation has given his intuition a theoretical basis, which undoubtedly greatly strengthens his confidence.

Shangguan Xiu's fingers tapped lightly on the table, and said: A large part of the reason for the fall of the Song family is on me, and the people who lost their silver due to the fall of the Kaiyuan Silver Account are also directly related to me, and I should be responsible for them.

Qian Jin shrugged with a smile and responded: What Brother Xiu said is extremely true.

In business, benevolence, righteousness and morality have never been within the scope of consideration of money, and on the premise of not harming the vital fundamental interests, if he insists on relying on his own actions on benevolence, righteousness and morality, he does not care.

In the morning of the next day, Tang Ling still did not go to the court, and recuperated in the harem, and Shangguanxiu and Cai Xiao were still in charge of the government.

After discussing some important state affairs, Shangguan Xiu led the topic to the Kaiyuan Silver Account.

He paced around the hall with his hands behind his back. When discussing military affairs, Shangguan Xiu was reluctant to sit, but liked to walk around casually in the Chinese military tent, and this habit was also retained by him in the court.

He said as he walked: The Kaiyuan Silver Account has been seized, the people whose property has been damaged are hundreds of thousands, the people's grievances are getting bigger and bigger, the matter can no longer be delayed, and the matter of the Kaiyuan Silver Account must be resolved as soon as possible.

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Chancellor of the Exchequer Gan Ping and asked, "Lord Gan should hurry up and withdraw the silver from the treasury to make up for the shortfall of the Kaiyuan Silver Horn, so as to make the people angry."

Gan Ping didn't even think about it, and said bluntly: Back to His Royal Highness, even if Wei Chen digs three feet of ground in the treasury, he will not be able to take out more than 20 million taels of silver.

When he was in Xijing, he finally added a large amount of silver to the treasury through fundraising, which was most of the silver spent in Xijing, and now he returned to Shangjing, the imperial court was eager to use more places with silver, and the treasury had already been stretched thin, and he had to take out more than 20,000 taels of silver to help Kaiyuan Silver fill the hole, which was simply his life.

If the treasury cannot come up with any money, and the hole in the Kaiyuan silver cannot be filled, how can the people's grievances be quelled? Now that the traitorous party is still rampant, will it not take advantage of this popular grievance to make more and more trouble?

Hearing Shangguan Xiu's questioning, the ministers present looked at each other and lowered their heads. Gan Ping completely pretended to be deaf and dumb, no matter what others said, he couldn't get a tael of silver anyway.

Shangguan Xiu stared at Gan Ping for a long time, then Fang retracted his gaze, looked at Cai Xiao, and said, "Lord Cai!

General!

The Cai family is a century-old wealthy family, with rich wealth and strong strength, so how about the Cai family taking over the Kaiyuan Silver Account? Shangguan Xiu Lao Shen said on the ground: After the Cai family takes over the Kaiyuan Silver Number, the strength of Baofeng Money Village will also be greatly improved, and in our country, it can become the largest money bank!

When Cai Xiao heard this, he was almost angry, even if he didn't annex Kaiyuan Yinhao, Baofeng Money Village was also the largest money village in the Wind Country, does this still need to be questioned?

That's right, let the Cai family take out more than 20 million taels of silver to help Kaiyuan Silver fill the hole, and the Cai family can get it, but the question is why? Why did the Cai family take out more than 20 million taels of silver for nothing to buy a collapsed Kaiyuan Silver Number? To buy such a big burden? Bullying people don't bring such bullies, right?

Cai Xiaopi said with a smile: The rebellion of the rebels, the Cai family's industry, suffered heavy damage, and when a hundred wastes are waiting to be rebuilt, it has long been different from what it used to be, more than 20 million taels of silver, the Cai family may still be able to take it out in the past, but now, it can't be taken out no matter what, but the general has strong financial resources, it is better for the general to take over the Kaiyuan silver number and help the court solve the urgent need!

Seeing Shangguan Xiu frowning, Cai Xiao was even more proud in his heart. Shangguan Xiu turned his gaze and looked at Qiu Yi.

Seeing this, the latter shrank his neck in fright, waved his hand again and again, and said urgently: Your Highness, even if Weichen smashes the pot and sells iron, and goes bankrupt, he can't take out 20 million taels of silver!

Shangguan Xiu turned his eyes to the other ministers again. Anyone who was swept by Shangguan Xiu's gaze all lowered their heads and dodged Shangguan Xiu's gaze. More than 20 million taels of silver, and in the entire court, except for Shangguan Xiu and Cai Xiao, no third person can take it out.

After a long time, Shangguan Xiu nodded and said: Since there is no silver available in the treasury, and all the adults are unwilling to take over the Kaiyuan Silver Number, then it is better for the Sitong Silver Number to take over.
