After entering the city-state, he saw the solemn appearance of the guards at the border of Weiguo, and thousands of soldiers held weapons with serious expressions.

Luo Tian said in a low voice: "The battle is quite big." ”

"It seems that there is a constant war on the border, so we are very vigilant, our purpose is not to participate in the government affairs of Weiguo, and we will leave when we get the money and unload the goods. ”

Neither Luo Bi nor Luo Tian wanted to get involved in this country-to-country dispute.

"Even the old general is really not old, and other countries are scared as soon as he comes out, as long as the old general is here, our border can be safe. A fat man with a bloated figure walked out in a splendid official uniform, and his status was quite noble as could be seen from the sash around his waist.

"Rich man, the few pieces of jade inlaid on the belt are all good goods, and they are worth thousands of taels to say the least. Luo Bi glanced at it and whispered to Luo Tian.

"You are the businessmen who are doing business with our country this time, this is the payment, let's do a little bit. This person walked over, took a silver ticket from the hand of the little guy who followed him, and handed it to Luo Tian and them.

Luo Bi hurriedly stretched out his hand to take it, and first looked at the number, it was twenty carts of money, and Luo Bi smiled and said, "What do you call this adult?"

"This is Lord Gu of our country, who is in charge of the commerce and trade of our country. ”

"Oh, Lord Gu is polite, this time we brought not only twenty carts of iron ore, but thirty carts, see if you can calculate the money for the remaining ten carts to us together, I see that your country is also in urgent need of iron ore, and I will bring ten more carts, the better." ”

"Oh, and that, I'll let people do it. Lord Gu waved his hand, and the attendant next to him hurriedly led people up to count the goods, and found out that it was indeed thirty truckloads of iron ore.

"My lord, it's thirty carts of iron ore, and they pulled ten more carts. A guy said.

Lord Gu nodded and said, "You two are also quite capable, and you can actually break through the layers of passes to our country, which is ten carts of money." ”

He asked someone to give another silver ticket, and Luo Bi took it with a smile, but when he looked closely at the two silver tickets in his hand, he showed a strange expression.

"Lord Gu, this silver ticket doesn't seem right. As soon as Luo Bi's words came out, Lord Gu's face showed displeasure.

"Why, will Lord Ben give you less money?"

"Hehe, that's not what it means, the number of silver tickets is right, but this silver ticket can only be exchanged for silver in a silver number called Fengdeng Bank in your Wei country, as far as I know, this Feng Deng Bank seems to only have a branch in various parts of Wei Guo, and it is not in circulation on the big 6, can you exchange it for the silver ticket issued by the Chase Silver number or other silver numbers circulating on the big 6?"

Luo Bi is an old businessman, so he was very careful when collecting money, and when he saw that the situation was wrong, he immediately brought it up.

"Why, I gave you a silver ticket and the silver number is not in circulation, this official represents the Weiguo General Mansion of Commerce and Trade, is there still a shortage of thousands of taels of silver for you, the jade belt wrapped around the waist of this official is more valuable than the silver ticket in your hand. ”

"Yes, you're right, but we don't necessarily have to carry a few thousand taels of silver on the road, that's a lot of trouble, please ask Lord Gu for a favor, I can count the money of a cart of iron ore less, please be sure to help us change it to other silver tickets issued by the big 6 circulating silver number." ”

"Hmph. "I never thought that Lord Gu shook his hand, looked quite angry, and left.

Luo Tian frowned and asked: "This guy is clearly making things difficult for us, it seems that we can only exchange cash on the road, fortunately, I have a mustard seed ring, and I can put the silver into the mustard seed space." ”

Fengdeng Branch, the bookkeeper with a mustache behind the counter looked at the silver ticket handed over by Luo Bi and shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, there is not so much cash in this number for the time being." ”

"No, it's only a few thousand taels of silver, so you can't redeem it?" Luo Bi asked.

"Yes, I'm sorry, or you should check out the semicolons in other towns. The other party threw the silver ticket out.

Luo Bi and Luo Tian spent a few days running several branches in a row, but the reason was the same, they all said that there was not so much cash.

"No, these semicolons all say that there is no cash, this is not normal, thousands of taels of people is a lot of money, but the silver number supported by these countries is not a lot of money, I'm afraid someone wants to mess with us." Luo Bi sniffed out something wrong.

"Let's find a way to ask. ”

As night fell, the first Funden Bank they had ever visited was closed, and Mr. Bookkeeper came out of the tavern, and after a few drinks, he was walking in the direction of his house, when he was dragged by someone from behind covering his mouth as he turned into the alley.

The bookkeeper was taken aback, and heard the man who had robbed him say, "Don't shout or cut your throat." ”

He hurriedly nodded, and after the other party let go of his hand, he took out a few taels of silver from his arms and muttered: "A few uncles spare their lives, I am just a worker for others, there are only a few taels of silver on my body, you can take them, don't harm my life." ”

"I don't want your money, I just want to ask you something, has anyone on your account come to exchange for silver tickets recently?"

When the bookkeeper heard this, he nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, every day." ”

"Then why don't you change it?" asked Luo Tian.

"Isn't that without money?" explained the bookkeeper.

"Fart, are you silver trumpets sitting on empty mountains, there is no silver in the entire silver trumpet, so it's good to close the door early. ”

The bookkeeper smiled awkwardly and said: "There is still a little silver, but whether to exchange the silver ticket or not is up to the above, I am just a bookkeeper, and I can't control some things." ”

"What do you mean?"

"Recently, we Fengdeng's big boss said, all more than five hundred taels of silver tickets will not be exchanged, unless we get the big boss's special approval, we are also doing things according to the rules, if the big boss knows that we secretly help people exchange silver tickets, not only will the job be lost, but also may be killed. ”

Of course, if the silver number encounters a large amount of silver ticket exchange, in order to avoid a shortage of silver warehouses in the bank, the problem of broken capital chain may make the following account stop exchanging silver tickets.

"Who is your big boss and where does he live?"

"Our big boss ......" The account office obviously knows his identity, but it is inconvenient to say it.

"Say!"

"Our big boss's surname is Gu, and he is the Minister of Finance. ”

So that's the case, no wonder the silver tickets given by this surnamed Gu are all from Fengdengxing, it turns out that he is single-handedly controlling the economy of Weiguo and wants to expand his own power.

After putting this account room out of the darkness, Luo Tian walked to another street, Luo Bi was waiting there, and after thinking about the situation, Luo Bi thought about it and said: "I also went to find out before, it turned out that not only our family did not receive the payment, but many merchants who supplied iron ore and other raw materials to Weiguo before were trapped here, and the silver tickets received were all from Fengdengxing, and Fengdeng Xing did not exchange cash. ”

"How many merchants are there?"

"There are twenty or thirty people I know, the total amount is about 150,000 taels, I estimate that there must be something in other places that I don't know, and not only can I not exchange money, but even their personal freedom has been restricted, not only can not leave the country, but also encountered someone watching me on the road, before I walked on the road I felt that someone was watching me. ”

"Hehe, it seems that the answer has to be asked by this Lord Gu. ”

In the big city of Weiguo, in a magnificent restaurant box, Lord Gu was drinking with the old general, and there were guards standing at the door, and even the maid of the restaurant serving food had to be checked.

"Even the old general, I don't know what the situation is on the side of the Ordnance Bureau, the prince has come to urge him several times, and I hope to make that weapon quickly. Master Gu said while pouring wine for General Lian.

"I've also urged many times, but you also know that this is a weapon of the old era after all, its principle is complex and the structure is precise, I have arranged a lot of first-class talent research in the Ordnance Bureau, but the progress can't be rushed, these nerds will be slower and slower the more they urge, if the head is stuck, it will affect the prince's plan. ”

"That's true, but there are a lot of businessmen who have been detained recently, and I'm afraid that there will be a dispute, in case our plan is stabbed out after being known, and it affects the prince's side, I'm afraid we can't afford to be guilty." ”

"Hmph, if those copper-smelling traders dare to mess around, the old man will immediately send troops to destroy them. ”
