"Clothing Yuan donated two thousand taels! Get a red card! ”

"The clothing is also here, now there is something to see, this is to start competing for the emperor's autograph plaque."

"Look, that's not the shopkeeper of Wanxiangzhai."

"Yes, there are also people from Yuanheng Firm."

"Wanxiang Zhai donated 3,000 taels, Yuanheng Commercial Bank, donated 10,000 taels!"

As the amount of donations increased, even the number of people who sang increased their voices unconsciously.

"Oh, 10,000 taels, the old firm is strong."

There was an exclamation for a while, although there are rich people everywhere in the capital, there are not many who can take out 10,000 taels casually.

In the praise of the people, the shopkeepers, not like they came to pay for the money, but as if they had won a great honor, nodded politely to the onlookers, and left with their heads held high.

Shinong industry and commerce, in this world, although businessmen have money, but have no status, see everyone has to bow their heads, when they have been so respected, the heart is as satisfied as when I was a child with money to buy candy to eat.

Although there were still donations later, they did not exceed those few families, and the people watched for a long time, and when they saw that the most lively scene was almost over, they all went home to cook and eat.

General Chu came back from the retreat and called the family to have dinner together, and their family, after the spring banquet in the palace, had not sat down to eat together, and there were always trivial matters. Of course, no one called Aunt Liu and Chu Xue'er.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is really resourceful, and he can come up with such a way to make people willing to pay money to raise money for disaster relief!"

As soon as General Chu sat down, he excitedly raised donations.

"How much money did my father donate today?"

Chu Yunxi was curious.

"One thousand taels."

General Chu replied while cleaning his hands.

"Why did my father only donate a thousand taels? I heard that Xiao Guogong donated 40,000 taels and Cao Chengxiang donated 10,000 taels, doesn't my father want the iron coupon of Nadan book? ”

Chu Wenjin's look of pity made General Chu's eyes wider.

"Your father and I are not corrupt or bribe-taking, and second, we are not engaged in business to accumulate wealth, where did we get the money? It's good to be able to make up a thousand taels. Do you know how much silver you can get for the Danshu Iron Coupon? King An took out 100,000 taels. Can you come up with 100,000 taels? ”

"Tsk, father, so you are so poor?" Chu Wenjin looked incredulous.

"Ahem, ahem." Chu Wenhong couldn't hold back, and choked on the tea he had just drunk.

"Jin'er, how can you talk to your father?" Mrs. Chu used her eyes to signal Chu Wenjin to restrain herself.

"Stinky boy, dare to think that you are poor, are you richer than your son?" General Chu was really annoyed, how could he be despised by his own cubs.

"Needless to say!" Chu Wenjin couldn't talk at home, and blurted out. When I looked up, I saw my parents, brothers and sisters looking at me.

"I mean, I've saved a little bit of money in business."

"A little?" General Chu asked in disbelief, he had always thought that his youngest son was idle and liked to have fun, and doing business was just to make some subsidies for him to have fun.

"Some?" Chu Wenjin thought that his father felt that the "little" was too little, so he was busy making up for it.

"Third brother, don't sell it, I also want to know, is it difficult for the third brother to be an invisible rich businessman?"

Chu Yunxi held his little face to help his father.

"It's not a rich businessman, but sister, don't worry, when you get married, the third brother will definitely give you a lot of makeup."

Chu Yunxi blushed and had nothing to say, but General Chu jumped to his feet.

"You kid, how much private money you have to come out quickly, now that the drought is now, it's not the time to make a joke."

"Father, you won't be able to get the Danshu Iron Coupon anyway, don't worry, your son will go and get the imperial plaque back as a businessman."

Chu Wenzhong looked at Chu Wenjin, who didn't take his first name seriously, and patted him on the shoulder:

"Third brother, do you know how much silver the Yuanheng Commercial Bank donated the most money today? That's 10,000 taels of silver! If you want to get a royal plaque, it is probably a fool's dream. ”

The meals were all served, the family ate silently, and no one took Chu Wenjin's words seriously anymore.

"Second brother, don't you believe in your brother either?" Chu Wenjin was unwilling to find an alliance again.

"Third brother, do what you can, don't slap your swollen face and become fat." Chu Wenhong gave a pertinent suggestion.

"In seven days' time, I will bring back the royal plaque and set it before you."

Chu Wenjin deeply examined himself in his heart, whether he was usually too low-key.

"Xi'er, did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say what to do with those congratulatory gifts?"

General Chu directly ignored Chu Wenjin and turned his head to ask Chu Yunxi. When he came back, he saw the boxes, which had been unsealed and placed in the courtyard, and he was a little worried.

"Father, don't worry, if the daughter is not wrong, these things will have a destination on the seventh day."

On the seventh day, the fundraising deadline, is it possible that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince intends to donate these congratulatory gifts? In that case, can the prince surpass King An and get the iron coupon of the Dan book?

"Hong'er, eat quickly, eat quickly, go and count again after eating, and see how many congratulatory gifts there are?"

"Yes, father." Chu Wenhong understood.

"Father, I, look at me, I'm better at accounting than my second brother." Chu Wenjin pointed to himself looking for a sense of existence.

"Okay, you can eat it too."

Chu Wenjin, who was neglected, didn't eat anything fragrant, Shinong Industry and Commerce, alas!

The first six days of fundraising, An'an passed steadily, but on the seventh day, the top donations, especially those who beat around 100, stayed at the donation location all the time.

Having already spent so much silver, no one wants to be squeezed off the merit monument at the last moment, and from time to time someone will come forward and add some silver taels.

Some people are really powerless to follow, and they return with regrets. Some people plan to stick to the end, add glory to their ancestors, and accumulate blessings for their descendants.

The Yuan Heng merchant bank has kept the first position, and has added another 10,000 taels to it, and now the first among the merchants has risen to 20,000 taels of silver.

Just when everyone thought that the imperial plaque belonged to Yuanheng Commercial Bank.

"Yipin firm, donate 40,000 and 1 taels!" A high singing stirred up a thousand waves.

The people of the Yuanheng Trading House were only shocked for a moment, and then turned around and left in a huff, and the Yipin Trading House had already seized most of their business.

Now the donation will also weigh them down, the key is, if you want to donate, you should donate earlier, and they will not add the 10,000 taels of silver. Forty thousand taels, this imperial plaque, they can't afford it.

"A product firm? Isn't it the firm that has suddenly become famous in the past two years? ”

"Yes, I didn't expect that in just two years, it surpassed the old Yuanheng firm. I don't know who the owner is. ”

"Forty thousand and one taels? Do you remember how much Xiao Guogong donated? ”

"Forty thousand, that's forty thousand taels. I can hear it clearly. ”

What does the forty thousand and one taels mean? Could it be that he wants to slap Xiao Guogong in the face? No one dares to say this.

Don't dare to think about it, what is the force behind this product firm?

didn't let everyone guess for too long, at the top of the list of 100 people, the word Chu Wenjin was written impressively.

"Chu, Chu Wenjin? Is it General Chu's family, the third son, Chu Wenjin? ”

"Yes, is there a second Chu Wenjin in the capital?"

"Didn't they all say that he was idle? He is actually the owner behind Yipin Trading House? ”

Now those who are guarding here are those who have the ability to compete for the top 100, and they also know a lot about the movements of the court.

Xiao Guogong and the prince are opposed, the Chu family is the help of the prince, which party is strong, it will affect who will kill the monarch in the future, it is a big show.
