Chapter 101: Alive

After more than three months of recuperation, the county town of Montenegro has largely recovered its original appearance, only the city wall outside the south gate has not been completely repaired, showing the misfortune that this city has experienced.

Gu Zuo walked on the street, feeling that the population was obviously much sparser, and when he came to the Yamen of the Household Division, the station officials on duty at the Yamen were no longer the acquaintances of three years ago, but at this moment, he no longer had to enter the door by brushing his face, and he generously presented his name post, and someone immediately went in to pass it.

As the only big city in the entire Nanzhao that has not been attacked by demon beasts, Nanwu City is now quite famous, and he, the governor of Nanwu, has won a lot of respect.

Zhong Ziyu, a judicial member of the army, personally greeted him, and the two met ba, not very embarrassed.

"Alive?"

"Thanks to you, I'm still alive. ”

"It's good to be alive!"

"Senior Zhong is also alive?"

"yes, yes, survived. ”

Are you still alive? This phrase has become the most popular greeting in the Nanzhao area.

Next, of course, is the feeling of saying goodbye to each other.

"Elder Tu and Mountain Tiger, are they still alive?"

"Alive. ”

"That's good, your disciple, is your name Jiugu still alive?"

"Alive. Mr. Zhong Da and Mr. Zhong Er are still alive?"

"Zhongda went to ......"

"Alas...... Where's Master Lin's book?"

"I went too. ”

"Our Spirit Beast Division's Tiger Great Elder and Second Elder Xiong are still alive?"

"It's all gone. ”

"This ...... Zhong Senjun take care, the Spirit Beast Department relies on Zhong Senjun. It seems that Zhong Senjun's cultivation has made great progress?"

"I had some insights in a big battle with demon beasts last year, and now that it has been completed, the next step is to consider how to give birth to a baby. Aren't you the same, Xiao Gu? It seems...... The foundation has been built, or is it the later stage? Break through two realms in a row, it's okay, Xiao Gu!"

"Hehe, thanks to you!"

After some chatter, the two entered the door hand in hand and came to Zhong Ziyu's study to sit down, Zhong Ziyu sighed heavily.

Gu Zuo hurriedly expressed concern: "Why did Zhong Senjun sigh?"

Zhong Ziyu said: "This time the beast tide siege is really tragic, among the eight departments, only the Yinsheng Department, the Black Tooth Department, the Spirit Beast Department, and the Ginseng Star Department remain, and there will be no eight Black Mountain in the future, only four Black Mountain." In April of this year, the Ministry of Silver and Life summoned all the troops to return to the county town of Montenegro, and I returned from the Ten Thousand Beasts Villa, and when I first entered the county town, I couldn't help but cry, and the Xiongcheng of 60,000 people in the past was full of devastation, and no one ...... it."

Gu Zuo sighed for a while, and Zhong Ziyu said again: "Xiao Gu is coming back for the first time today, right? How to restore the original appearance, and what to plan next, I don't have any ...... in my heart."

Gu Zuo said: "This is Zhong Senjun's great talent, if you change others, just three months, where can you do what you are now." I also saw it on the road, although there are few people, it has become popular, and the houses in the streets and alleys are built very quickly, which is a hundred times stronger than my Nanwu City, and how many houses and temples have fallen in Nanwu Prefecture, and I still have no clue. ”

He is blocking Zhong Ziyu with words, lest Zhong Ziyu ask him to build a house, Gao Changjiang's master and apprentice are already from Huaixian Pavilion, and Nanwu Prefecture is still very useful, so he can't borrow people back.

Zhong Ziyu nodded, and didn't improve the matter of the Yangtze River master and apprentice, but said, "It's difficult for everyone." Especially in my household, the account books have long been empty, and all aspects are pointing to the use of money, and I can't sleep well. Actually, even if you don't come today, I'm going to look for you, you see, the letter has been written. ”

Gu Zuo looked at Zhong Ziyu's book case, and sure enough, there was a letter, which was to invite him to go north to the county town of Montenegro, and couldn't help but smile: "I was about to come to join the army to join Zhong." ”

Zhong Ziyu hurriedly waved his hand: "Please come to the county town, not for you to come to the fate, I told you in the past, you are a little expert in money, and now it is up to you." Although Nanwu Prefecture and Montenegrin edict have nothing to do with the imperial court system, but after all, they are in the same place, and if Montenegrin edict is good, Nanwu Prefecture can be good, this truth, you should understand. ”

Gu Zuo immediately nodded: "The Black Mountain Zhao is the big brother, and the Southern Wuzhou is the little brother, what the big brother says, the little brother will do it." ”

Zhong Ziyu was very satisfied, and said: "Let's not talk about that much, just ask you, can you lend me some money, want cash, or...... Or a ticket from another bank. ”

"How much do you need?"

"As much as you want, Xiao Gu rest assured, he will definitely pay you back." If there is no cash, the spirit stone is fine, and it will cost tens of thousands of dollars. ”

Gu Zuoqi said: "No, Zhong joins the army, there is so much shortage, and the profit money village and the Spring and Autumn pawnshop should be rich now." ”

In fact, when he saw Zhong Ziyu today, he felt that the God of Wealth of the Black Mountain Edict looked a little flustered, and his attitude towards himself was much more enthusiastic than before, and even some deliberately flattered, it turned out that it was because he had no money, but this was completely contrary to Gu Zuo's expectations.

Nanzhao swept away for demon beasts, I don't know how many people died, even half of the eight tribes of Montenegro were wiped out, these extinct tribes, sects, those who died, the money they stored in the money bank, the collateral they put in the pawnshop, since they were unclaimed, they all became the property of the law department, so Gu Zuo would feel strange, how could Zhong Senjun say that there was no money?

Zhong Ziyu hung his face and said hatefully: "The matter has come to this, anyway, you will know sooner or later, I will tell you clearly, there is a fart of money, it has been looted!"

Under the auspices of the Chongxuan Administration, the world's sects and imperial armies entered Nanzhao, and in the process of expelling and exterminating demon beasts, I don't know how many dead people's things were collected, and I don't know how many properties of the extinct tribes and sects were obtained, among which there were a large number of flying tickets.

After the Montenegro county began to operate normally, monks from all sides poured into the city, frantically withdrawing money to the profit bank, squeezing the loot, and when the city was broken, a large number of gold, silver and copper coins that the spirit beast department desperately saved were all withdrawn by all parties, and after the money was withdrawn, they used the flying ticket to go to the Spring and Autumn Pawnshop to "redeem" the pawn, and all the collateral was taken away.

Until now, there are still people blocking the gates of the Profit Money Village and the Spring and Autumn Pawn Shop every day, holding a large number of flying tickets in their hands, waiting for the gold, silver and copper coins promised by the household division.

When Gu Zuo heard this, he also chuckled in his heart, after he sold the spirit stone vein, he received 58,000 tickets, most of which were profit-making, more than 30,000. If the profit bank is run out of business, his losses will be too great.

"You're over-sending?"

"What over-hair?"

"Flying tickets, have you printed more flying tickets?"

It stands to reason that the money bank cannot print more flying tickets, and it is the duty of the money to issue as many flying tickets as it collects. However, in practice, some money banks in the loan outside, printing a few more tickets to solve the cost of the problem, so printing more tickets is a very common thing, this is the tacit understanding of the money industry, do not dare to talk nonsense, but there are a lot of such things.

Gu Zuo fully understands this, can a money bank that does not over-issue tickets be called a bank? However, if there is no back-up when encountering a run, the consequences will be serious.
