Chapter 296: Borrowing Silver

Not long after Zhu Congwen left, Xie Zhan also got up and left, this point in time is neither long nor short, and it will not lead people to reverie.

Unexpectedly, when he went out, he was recognized, "You are Xie Zhan?" ”

Gu Huaisheng stopped Xie Zhan.

Xie Zhan paused, the location of this meeting was decided by Zhu Congwen in Tianxianglou, he thought, people who could be easily calculated by him, really couldn't believe that they could be meticulous and thoughtful when doing things.

"Young Master Gu, it's Xie Zhan down there." Xie Zhan is neither humble nor arrogant.

Gu Huaisheng's eyes were blazing, "You came here to meet a friend?" ”

Xie Zhan smiled, the whole person looked very relaxed and casual, and his attitude was frank, "There is a little little thing, but it has been done, Gu Shaozhu and his friends are gathered here?" ”

Gu Huaisheng snorted.

"Then don't bother Young Master Gu Yaxing, and take your leave."

Gu Huaisheng bowed his head and watched him leave.

His henchman stepped forward and asked in a low voice, "Young Master, do you want to check it?" ”

"Hmm." As soon as Gu Huaisheng saw Zhu Congwen leave from here, it didn't take long for Xie Zhan to come out, and he always felt that something was unusual. Check it out, it's just that the confidentiality of Tianxianglou is still very good, and you may not be able to find anything.

As soon as Zhu Congwen stepped into Ji's Qian Village, the steward of Qian Zhuang immediately stepped forward to greet him, "Zhu Shao, what a distinguished guest is here, come, please come in." ”

After the steward welcomed the person in, he personally served him tea before asking, "I don't know what Zhu Shao is doing today?" ”

Zhu Congwen said, "You can't handle my matter, let you Ji Da Shao come out." ”

"This-" The steward hesitated, today they are not there, but the old master is in the money village.

"Huh? Why don't you hurry up and get someone to get in? ”

"Zhu Shao, can you reveal a little bit about it, and I'll ask the people above for instructions."

"Just tell Ji Dashao that this is a big deal."

At this time, Ji Wuyin was on the second floor of Qianzhuang.

He had also just returned to the Southlands.

Although the return trip was by land, he hurried back quickly, and it took several days of effort.

First, the situation in the south was unstable because of the floods, and he had to come back to sit in the town to rest assured.

Second, before leaving, Lu Songli reminded him to be careful of Xie Zhan.

As the saying goes, listen to people's advice to eat enough. Lu Songli is such a powerful person, he still believes in her judgment. For that, he's going to have to try to get back.

In such a situation, surrounded by strong enemies, if someone steals his home, he has no place to cry.

He had just returned yesterday, and today he received a letter from the old immortal who asked him to take the waterway, which detailed their prediction that the Southland family would be in chaos next.

Ji Wuyin knew that such a prediction was already a core secret for the forces on the side of Liaodong County.

The old friend took it out and shared it with him, not only the old friend's heart, but also Lu Songli's approval.

Thinking of this, Ji Wuyin felt very comforted. As the richest man in the Southland, he naturally knew the value of this letter. Business opportunities are all about making money first, and sometimes being one step ahead of others can make a big difference.

This letter not only allows him to avoid unnecessary risks, but also lays out in advance. They really have a heart.

It's just that Ji Wuyin was quite puzzled, why when he was in Liaodong County, Lu Songli didn't mention to him that the southern land would be chaotic.

The reason why Lu Songli concluded that Xie Zhan would make a move was mainly because she had been paying attention to the situation in Nandi.

When Ji Wuyin was in Liaodong County, she was not so sure, until he left for seven or eight days, the imperial court still couldn't come up with an effective disaster relief plan. She was sure that the imperial court was not capable of quickly cleaning up the mess of the floods in the southlands.

When the new emperor ascended the throne, the treasury was already stretched. The new emperor relied on copying Qin, Xie Zhao and several others to renew a wave of blood.

Lu Songli roughly estimated that the total value of the cash and property copied by these companies should be about 10 million taels, of which the Xie family accounted for the majority.

This 10 million taels seems to be a lot, but after the beginning of spring, the court has more places to spend money. 10 million is not spent.

At this time, the steward came up to the second floor and told Zhu Congwen about it, and Ji Wuyin's heart moved. So, he decided to go downstairs and listen to what Zhu Congwen had to say.

Zhu Congwen was surprised when he saw that it was not Ji Dashao, but Ji Wuyin.

But as a junior, he hurriedly got up, "Uncle Ji Shi, why are you in Qianzhuang?" What about Ji Dashao? ”

"He is busy, I have an old bone, and people are relatively idle, so I came to the money village to go around." Ji Wuyin also motioned for him to sit down after sitting down, "Is there something wrong with you coming today?" If there's something you need, just say it. ”

"Then Uncle Ji Shi, the little nephew said it directly. The little nephew wanted to borrow 200,000 taels of silver from Ji's bank. ”

"That's a lot, huh?"

For Ji's Qianzhuang, except for the heads of the six major families, it is almost impossible for individuals to borrow 200,000 taels.

Moreover, there are potential regulations for personal lending, like Zhu Congwen, a son who is favored by the six families, the amount given by Ji's Qianzhuang is 20,000 taels, and within this amount, they can withdraw it at any time after they come.

Anyway, the families behind these people are all in the south, and the monks can't run the temple.

Moreover, the 20,000 taels borrowed for the sake of the child, the heads of the family will not be repaid, because the six great families cannot afford to lose that face.

However, if the number exceeds 20,000 taels, you have to be cautious, not to mention that now Zhu Congwen is 200,000 taels as soon as he opens his mouth.

"Virtuous nephew, you borrowed such a large sum of silver, but what kind of big deal do you want to make? If there is a good deal, take Uncle Shi. Ji Wuyin smiled and said, firstly, he said this to find out some news, and secondly, the drunkard did not mean to drink. The main business of the Zhu family is grain, and the grain of the Zhu family is not old or young.

Zhu Congwen was vigilant in his heart, but said with a smile, "What's the big deal?" Wasn't I being sent to Zhuya Island by my father now, I thought, my old man is about to have a big birthday. As for me, I'll have to prepare a birthday gift for him. ”

Ji Wuyin was speechless, "Didn't your father just celebrate his birthday last month?" ”

"Yes, it's only eleven months before his next birthday, and time is very tight."

Okay, strong words are also reasonable. Ji Wuyin motioned for him to continue.

"I thought, our Zhu family's land on Zhuya Island is still a little smaller. I want to make the territory bigger, raise something, make results, and give him to my father as a birthday gift, and he must be happy. ”

Zhu Congwen is not stupid, even if his mouth is tightly closed, the Chen family may not be willing to hide it for him, so there must be an excuse on the surface.

Ji Wuyin: "Someone wants to sell the land of Zhuya Island?" "And it is very likely that this place is next to the Zhu family's area.

Zhu Congwen smiled and said nothing, this is a confidential matter, he definitely can't say it.

Ji Wuyin didn't ask any more curiously, but his mind was spinning quickly. Whose property is the Zhu family next to each other on the left and right sides of Zhuya Island? The south side is by the sea, the east is next to the Chen family's small Zhuya Island, the west is the Gu family's industry, and the north is Liu Zhang's family's.

First of all, the Gu family was excluded, because the Gu family's property could not be easily sold, otherwise it would make people have a bad association with its business situation.

The Liu and Zhang families can also be ruled out. Last year, the Liu and Zhang families just made a major investment in the land industry owned by Zhuya Island. As far as he knew, the value of the silver money he invested, together with the original property, was already more than 250,000, and it was impossible to quietly sell it to Zhu Congwen at a discount of 200,000 taels.

Then, it was the Chen family who traded with Zhu Congwen, and Zhu Congwen used 200,000 taels of silver or more to buy the Chen family's small Zhu Ya Island?

Mother, he had just finished reading the letter when he saw the conspiracy unfolding in front of his eyes.
