Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    After the Ming Li Bao New Day campaign, by the end of April, Jin Wanwan, who was living in the Huizhou Guild Hall in the capital, was busy with people, and there was a steady stream of people visiting.  Most of them were southern merchants lingering in the capital, as well as officials from Huaiyang and Huizhou, and the topic of conversation was naturally related to banknote exchange.

    Gao Changjiang, another rich man living in the same hospital, was also unprepared for being hit by an arrow. Li You used his name to hype up the concept of interoperability between the capital, Yangzhou and Hankou, which made him miserable.  His repeated denials are of no use, but others would rather believe the newspaper than his refutation of rumors. How can something written in black and white be wrong?  It's better than empty talk and white teeth.

    There were too many people in Jinwanwan¡¯s place, and those who couldn¡¯t squeeze in came to the high-ranking officials. There were also a group of close neighbors from Huguang and Jiangxi who also frequently harassed the high-ranking officials. The high-ranking officials were exhausted and their normal life was greatly disturbed.  It is a pity that the law is not perfect these days, and the high-ranking officials who have their reputation rights violated by Mingli News are helpless.

    ¡°Are we going to be forced to put it on the shelf?¡± When the night was quiet, the senior official sighed and sighed in front of Can Zhu.

    Although he was very interested in learning more about this exchange, he was limited to curiosity and did not really make up his mind to do it. This was something without precedent.  But now, acquaintances from all walks of life have expressed that they will return to Huguang with banknotes next time, and ask him to take care of him and charge less handling fees Thinking of this, Gao Yuanwai couldn't help crying.

    The spring day was warm and the sun was shining brightly. After Li You went to the Yamen, he read the official documents and returned home without saying anything serious.  Now his official position can really be called a light one.  The biggest advantage is that you don¡¯t need to sit in the office all day long.

    Taking advantage of the good weather, Li You took his son and daughter out to play in the yard.  Just when I was enjoying myself, a disciple came to report: "Master Cheng Jiayu is here to visit."

    ¡° Master Cheng Jiayu naturally refers to Cheng Yu, the elder brother of Li You¡¯s fourth concubine, Mrs. Cheng.  Li You looked down on his father-in-law Cheng, so he didn't have much contact with the Cheng family in the capital, but his uncle Cheng was pretty good and visited him often.

    Cheng Yu really knows how to behave.  I bought two colored rubber balls, Miss Li and Young Master Li gave each one one, and they each went to play happily.  Then he said to Li You: "I came here today because I was entrusted by someone, and I really can't refuse."

    Li You asked: "Who is he?"

    "You have also met the master of the Lu family of the Western Shang Dynasty." Uncle Cheng replied, "If you are free tonight. He wants to host a banquet."

    The Lu family, the Lu family of the Western Shang Dynasty.  Li You suddenly understood.  This is because some people can't sit still anymore.

    For the Western businessmen who run banks, the real details of Huichang Bank are not a secret. The relationship between Jin Wanwan and Li You can be found out with a little inquiry.  Both parties were deeply involved with Li You. If Li You didn't manipulate the banknote exchange, it would be an insult to everyone's intelligence.

    Starting from the Lu family, the relationship with Li You is also quite deep.  When Li You came to Beijing last year and served as the admiral of the five cities, he was the censor.  The youngest son of the head of the Lu family was imprisoned for several months, but he was implicated in a court battle.  It triggered a series of things.  Although the Lu family is rich, they are still struggling.

    The final result was that the head of the Lu family was forced to abandon Mr. Peng Ge in order to protect himself.  He chose the eldest princess as his backer, and the old family owner had no choice but to ask his own account bureau to vouch for the unreliable small bank that Li You took over, which is now the Huichang Bank that has caused a lot of discussion in the capital.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Lu Zhaojie¡¯s account bureau is also a time-honored brand in Beijing with an opening capital of 200,000 taels, and it is one of the largest in the bank deposit and loan industry.  To guarantee the business of Li You, his enemy, he was really forced to do nothing at the time.  Although they reluctantly reconciled, the hatred actually increased.

    However, in the eyes of colleagues in the industry who are also from the Western business community, they always feel that there is always something unclear between Mr. Lu and Li You.

    When the current Mingli Daily hyped up the cooperation between Huichang Bank and Jin Wanwan, the pressure on the Lu family suddenly doubled.  First, other families felt that the Lu family might have supported Huichang Bank; second, other families put pressure on the Lu family to talk to Li You and find out Li You's intentions.

    Mr. Lu felt bitter about this, feeling like he was being roasted on a fire. If possible, he would never want to deal with Li You again.  But each of his colleagues was more stupid than the other, knowingly or unknowingly they all identified him and wanted him to come forward.

    There was really no other way, so Mr. Lu could only agree with a sad face.  After thinking about it, he remembered that a niece from the second room of his family married Cheng Yu, the eldest son of Cheng, and the Cheng family was also related to Li You.

    Therefore, Mr. Lu sent a message to Cheng Yu, asking him to be the intermediary and invite Li You to come out and talk.  That's why today's trip to Uncle Cheng's Li family took place.

    But Cheng Yu was not under any psychological pressure. He knew that Li You was strong-willed and not an easy talker.  It's just that he was entrusted by someone to ask questions on a routine basis. Li YouThrowed down his sleeves and left.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? Rude!  How rude!  The old man's beard trembled in anger, but he could only endure it, and the night banquet ended unhappy.

    On the way back to the guild hall, Jin Wanwan and Gao Changjiang walked together. Gao Changjiang deliberately started a conversation, shook his head and sighed: "My little brother, I have to say something unpleasant and offensive to make the son-in-law succeed. It's too arrogant, a bit  Arrogant and arrogant. If things go on like this, he will definitely suffer a big loss. Brother Jin should give him some advice."

    Jin Wanwan thought for a while before replying: "Brother, you are worrying too much. It is true that Brother You has the problems you mentioned, but I know that he is a sensible person and will not be arrogant without any reason. On the surface,  There must be another meaning, but you and I can't see it now."

    When Gao Changjiang saw Jin Wanwan helping Li You to speak, he said nothing more. He just said that Jin Wanwan was eager to protect his son-in-law and it was not good for him, an outsider, to talk too much. Talking too much would easily arouse resentment.

    Gao Yuanwai just re-evaluated Li You in his mind and lowered Li You's friendship level by one level.

    Although this person has a rich background, is very influential in the capital, and looks to have a bright future, his character determines his destiny, and his end may not be good.  An arrogant and arrogant person is destined to be defeated. If you have a deep relationship with him, you may be dragged into the water.

    I didn't mention the gossip, but said that Lu Yuan was back home, and he was still indignant for his slowness, and he couldn't press it.  I couldn't help but get angry. Since you, Li You, are blindly optimistic and regard this matter as a sure thing, I'll teach you a lesson!

    They, the Western merchants, monopolized most of the money deposit and loan business in the capital, and their attitude towards Li You, a possible disruptor, was originally very playful, and even secretly hostile because of the pressure of competition.  So I went to the Shanxi Guild Hall tomorrow and met with my colleagues to provoke a few words, saying that we must unite to create some problems for Li You!

    The Western merchants joined forces and had at least several million in silver. What could Li You do to confront them head-on?  He didn't believe it anymore. Li You could arrest all the Western merchants and throw them into prison!  No one in the capital can do this, not even the emperor!

    The next day, Mr. Lu left for the Shanxi Guild Hall, where colleagues in the industry were waiting for news about him.

    After greeting each other, Lu Yuanwai said worriedly: "I talked to Li You last night. He is very arrogant and arrogant. He relies on the support of Guide Qiansui and the financial resources of Yangzhou Jin Million, and he will not put us in trouble."  In my eyes, if I take this opportunity to become powerful, I will inevitably annex our property. Please note that he is from the south, and his father-in-law is a Huizhou merchant, so he is not the same as us at all."

    Lei Changwen, the owner of another major bank in the capital, asked suspiciously: "Is this really true?"

    "It's correct! So we have to take precautions!" Lu Yuanwai affirmed.

    Lei Yuanwai and several other people looked at each other, and then threw a newspaper to Lu Yuanwai with a cold expression: "This is today's Mingli Newspaper, please read it."

    Member Lu looked down and saw an eye-catching article on the front page - "The five giants conspired for a great cause and had a secret meeting in Dongting Tower last night!"

    Today's news reports and everyone knows: Last night, under the introduction of the eldest son of the Cheng family of the Salt Merchants Association in the capital, the head of the Lu family of the Western Shang Dynasty had a secret meeting with Yangzhou Jin Wanwan, Hankou Gao Yuanwai, and Huichang Yinhao Dai shopkeeper. The guests and hosts chatted and laughed happily, and parted happily.  .

    According to various inquiries from the main writer of this newspaper, the Lu family, which owns the Xiangchang Account Bureau, intends to get involved in the foreign exchange business and wants to cooperate with the previous three parties. This is another party with a very important role, and the unusual trend deserves attention!

    ??Also, according to the analysis of experts in the industry, the Lujia Xiangchang Account Bureau is actually the guarantor of Huichang Bank. It has always endorsed the business of Huichang Bank and has a very close relationship. It is not surprising that it took the initiative to catch a smooth sailing this time.  "

    Raising his head to meet the doubtful and distrustful glances of his colleagues, the senior staff member wanted to argue but was speechless and wanted to cry without tears. He expressed the same emotion as Gao Changjiang. How could a newspaper named "Mingli" be so unethical?  Things written in black and white may not be true.

    "Brother Lu, we are all from the Jin Dynasty. We can't lose our integrity with our fellow villagers." Someone murmured in a low voice.

    ,please.
