Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

The clerk led Guo Ye to an empty chair, kindly invited him to sit down, and quickly served him a cup of steaming hot tea.

Then, he asked in a low voice: "This boss, looking at your face, is it possible that you also came to Yangzhou from other places to do business?"

Just as Guo Ye was about to shake his head and deny it, he suddenly thought, since he mistook me for an out-of-town businessman, since no one here knows me anyway, why not just accept the plan and get some information about the Yangzhou bank from him.

As soon as he thought of this, he nodded immediately, and replied in the Sichuan dialect: "Yes, this little brother's eyes are very tight. I am a native of Ganzhou in the middle of Sichuan, and I do some traveling from south to north. Business. Hehe, I just came to Yangzhou this time to do some business."

Being praised by Guo Ye, the guy showed a bit of pride on his brows, and said complacently: "That's right, my sharp eyesight is a famous thief, hehe, the first time I saw you, I knew you were What a shame. Tsk tsk, Affection is a merchant from central Sichuan. You actually brought the business to Yangzhou, you have a big business plate. I don’t know what is your name, the owner?"

Guo Ye smiled secretly, and lied without changing his face: "My surname is Wu, and my name is Maocai. You can call me Wu Dong's family."

"Come on, Wu Dong's family!"

The clerk smiled and said: "This surname is really good. You can swallow the sky with your mouth open. It can be seen that Wu Dong's family's business plate is really big."

Guo Ye saw that the cheap father-in-law's surname was said out of the guy's mouth, and he couldn't help but burst into coke and praised him again and again.

Afterwards, the clerk asked: "Wu Dong's family, this time we came to our Yangzhou bank, but the turnover is not working for a while, do you want to borrow some money?"

Guo Ye naturally nodded his head along the way, and sighed with embarrassment: "Yes, to tell you the truth, my little brother, Wu's business plate shop has been a bit big recently, and it can't be turned around for a while, but Yangzhou is far away from you in Shuzhong. It’s been a long distance, and the distant water can’t quench the thirst. No, I just wanted to come to your bank to borrow some money, hey, I’m really ashamed!”

Hearing what Guo Ye said, the buddy smiled more and more, thinking to himself, good guy, seeing that another deal is about to be completed, Dong Cui's family will definitely be indispensable for my reward.

Immediately, he smiled affectionately and said: "Look at what Wu Dong's family said! What's there to be ashamed of? When you are out of the house, especially when you are doing business, who is not short of money? Our Yangzhou bank helps people Difficulties, saving people in distress are designed to solve the shortage of people's money. I have seen a lot of businessmen like you who are away from home. It's okay. I'm not ashamed. This is really normal. Wu Dong's family, there is suffering You can say how much money you need to borrow, and you can say it."

Good guy, Guo Ye applauded secretly when he heard the guy's words. This kid is born to be a good material for doing business. In future generations, he will definitely be a red-capped businessman Hu Xueyan, and the richest Chinese man Li Ka-shing.

If he hadn't understood the rules of bank lending, he would have almost mistakenly thought that Yangzhou Bank was a charitable boy with thousands of families living Buddhas, a charitable organization dedicated to giving charcoal to people in need, and money for nothing.

Seeing that Guo Ye was silent, the guy thought he was suspicious, and then added: "Of course, although our Yangzhou bank is willing to help Wu Dong's family, we can't help in vain, can we? So, in our bank Borrowing money, hehe, not only do we need to take out something of corresponding value as collateral, but we also need to charge a certain amount of interest. But the interest is not expensive. Compared with the business of Wu Dong's family, it is definitely a drop in the bucket, nothing more than a small profit I hope Dong Wu's family will understand this point, after all, the door is open for business. Hehe..."

Guo Ye nodded and said: "This Wu understands. I think that when I was doing business in Chang'an, I also borrowed money from the big bank in Changlefang. It is normal to charge interest for mortgages and guarantees. Free banquet? This little brother doesn't need to explain, Wu knows the rules of the bank quite well."

"ah?"

The guy let out an exclamation of surprise, widened his eyes and asked, "Wu Dong's family has been to the imperial capital Chang'an for business? And have you dealt with people from the Changlefang Big Bank? Tsk tsk, you are really a connoisseur of travelling. Great man, Definitely a great big shot."

"Brother, it's absurd. How could Wu be such a big shot? If he was a big shot, he wouldn't come to your account to borrow money."

Guo Ye reserved and modestly said: "I want to ask, no matter how much Guo borrows, you can make the decision, little brother?"

"Uh……"

The clerk was stunned for a moment, then smiled relievedly: "Under the premise of mortgage and guarantee, within 500 taels of silver, I can make the decision."

Guo Ye couldn't help frowning, shook his head and sighed, "Too little, too little."

The buddy stared, secretly happy in his heart, darling, is it more than 500 taels?He hoped that Guo Ye would borrow as many loans as possible, anyway, he was the one who brought this guest here, regardless of whether the loan was in his hands or not, he could get the reward from the bank.

Immediately, he pointed to the bustling counter, and said, "If it exceeds 500 taels, the young ones will not be able to make decisions. Wu Dong's family will have to go to the counter to handle it."

Guo Ye asked again: "How much can I borrow at the counter?"

The buddy said: "Within 2000 taels, there is no problem."

Guo Ye shook his head again and sighed: "Too little, still too little!"

"Uh……"

The guy had a troubled face, but he said happily in his heart, grandma, 2000 taels is too little?Could it be that I caught a big fish?

Immediately, he pointed to a room with a closed door on the left side of the front hall, and said, "Our bank manager Hu is right there, and if we exceed 2000 taels, we will have an appointment with shopkeeper Hu."

Guo Ye asked again: "How much can you borrow?"

The clerk said: "Within 1 taels, shopkeeper Hu can make decisions. This is the authority given to shopkeeper Hu by Dong Cui."

Guo Ye continued to shake his head and sighed, "Few, it's still too little!"

After hearing this, the man opened his mouth wide, his jaw almost fell to the ground in shock, and muttered, "Uh...Wu Dong's family, 1 taels is too little for you???"

Guo Ye yelled impatiently: "Could it be that you have such a small bank in Yangzhou that you have such a small foundation? This is a thousand miles away from the Changlefang Bank in Chang'an!"

"Hehe, what a big tone. Could it be that this guest still wants to borrow a million dollars?"

A bead curtain in the back hall was lifted, and a man in his thirties walked out, shouting at Guo Ye: "This guest, don't underestimate our Yangzhou Bank, and don't underestimate our Qinghe Cui family. As long as you can convince me, how difficult is it to borrow millions of silver? Our Cui family has plenty of silver."

Guo Ye followed the sound and turned his head to look over. The clerk gently reminded Guo Ye: "Hey, this is Dong Cui from our Yangzhou bank!"

Guo Ye muttered to himself, it turns out that he is Cui Yigui from the Cui family of Qinghe!

Chapter 821 Suspicious Cui Yigui

Cui Yigui, in his thirties, is not handsome in appearance, and his facial features can only be regarded as passable.

However, Guo Ye's first impression of this person was shrewd and greedy.

Cui Yigui walked up to Guo Ye, with a faint smile on his face, he cupped his hands and said, "I'm Cui Yigui, Tian is the owner of Yangzhou Bank, from... Qinghe Cui's family."

When talking about Qinghe Cui's family, Guo Ye could clearly feel the other party's sense of superiority and spontaneous pride.

After all, he is a son of a famous family, no matter what, he will have a superior and unruly temperament.

Guo Ye naturally continued to play the role, stood up to greet each other and bowed his hands in return, and said in an authentic Sichuan dialect: "Dong Cui's family is polite, and I'm Wu Maocai, who comes from Qianzhou in central Sichuan. If there was any verbal conflict or offense just now, please return I hope Dong Cui's family will not be offended."

"Hey..." Cui Yigui smiled, shook his head and said, "No wonder, no wonder, opening the door to do business is to make money in harmony, why would you drive the business out of the door because of some harsh words, isn't it? In business, Wu It’s too late for Cui to be happy because the owner is taking care of my Yangzhou bank. Besides, the more money Wu Dong’s family borrows, the happier Cui will be. But this premise is..."

Cui Yigui paused for a while when he said this, leaned closer to Guo Ye, and said softly in a non-negotiable tone: "The premise is, hehe, Dong Wu's family can get the corresponding mortgage, hehe, so that Cui can feel relieved and bold. I will lend you the money. As long as Wu Dong’s side is okay, Cui’s side, and Yangzhou Bank’s side, there is absolutely no problem at all. As the old saying goes, our Cui family in Qinghe has plenty of silver.”

There was a wave of arrogance in the words again, and Guo Ye sounded a little tired.Then he shrugged and said, "Don't worry, Cui Dong's family, I understand the rules of the bank."

"That's good!"

Cui Yigui nodded, and asked directly: "Let's get down to business, I wonder how much Wu Dong's family needs to borrow from our Yangzhou bank?"

Guo Ye stretched out his right hand and raised three fingers, making a gesture in front of Cui Yigui.

Before Cui Yigui could answer, the clerk who had been standing next to him blurted out: "My dear boy, is Wu Dong's family going to borrow 3 taels of silver? My God, this is the largest bank since the opening of our Yangzhou bank. What a deal. Tsk tsk, what a deal!"

After hearing this, Guo Ye frowned, glanced sideways at the clerk, and said disdainfully, "3 taels? The biggest deal? Isn't it so rare? Hiss... Could it be that the structure of Yangzhou Bank is so big? Or is this little brother looking down on Wu as well?"

"presumptuous!"

Cui Yigui suddenly yelled at the guy, and cursed: "How can you talk to the boy at the door here? There is no distinction between superiors and inferiors. There are no rules. Get out of here!"

Obviously, Guo Ye's ridicule was aroused by the man's amazement, but in the end, it was Cui Yigui and Qinghe Cui's face.

The guy was shocked when he heard the words, bowed to Cui Yigui again and again, and kept shouting that the little one knew his mistake, and the little one deserved to die.Then, resentfully, he slithered towards the door.
