Zhu Youjian: Taizu has an order! kill!

For several days.

The crowd in front of the bank never dispersed.

Especially the half-tael banknotes were emptied almost as soon as they came out.

There were even cases where someone exchanged one tael of silver for half a tael of banknotes.

In response, Zhu Youjian specifically asked Taizu if he wanted to stop it.

After all, the purpose of banknotes is to facilitate circulation, not to be rare items.

Li Chen reassured Zhu Youjian.

Things are more expensive when they are scarce, and when the half-tael banknotes continue to be sold, the price will gradually drop back.

But this still made Zhu Youjian happy for a long time.

Judging from Jin Yiwei's observation, many people would rather exchange two and a half liang than one or one liang.

I just want his portrait of Chongzhen!

This is a kind of affirmation for an emperor.

-------------------

"Everyone, I have told you that there is no place for Huangshang at the moment."

"If there is any follow-up, Song will definitely notify you."

"Please don't bother Song anymore. I'm really busy."

Just when Zhu Youjian was complacent about the fact that he was deeply loved by the people.

In the New Song Family Courtyard in the capital.

Song Haizheng looked at the 30 people in front of him with a headache.

There are business friends here who we usually make friends with, as well as those from aristocratic families.

The purpose of their coming was simply to contact His Majesty in the palace through Song Hai.

It's all because of the bank's attention.

"Mr. Song, you've been putting it off for a long time."

"We sincerely want to do business with His Majesty."

"You should go and inform us."

Seeing Song Hai pushing again, all the businessmen present were a little numb.

Look how stingy you are.

Are you afraid that we will steal your position as an imperial merchant?

"Everyone, it's not that Song doesn't want to help."

"It's all in the business world, everyone knows everything."

"Although Song and I have done grain business with the eight major Shanxi merchants before, Song and I can pat my chest and say that I have nothing to do with that Tatar."

"Do you dare?"

"Your Majesty is not blind, and this bank is related to the lives of the people of the entire Ming Dynasty."

"If I recommend you to Mr. Song, your Majesty will ask me why I recommend traders with ties to the Tatars to join. I cannot bear the crime."

"So everyone, please come back. Your Majesty will notify you if necessary."

Song Hai rubbed his face and became a little impatient.

These people really have no confidence in themselves at all.

That Majesty is not easy to get along with.

One less thing is worse than one more thing. He, Song Hai, has no interest in causing trouble.

"This..."

"Brother Song, think of another way."

"That is, we are willing to pay your Majesty the money and plead guilty. We just want to have a chance to become an official."

"I was also tricked by those eight companies. Who knew they would be so bold."

"Yes, yes, it's a lie to treat the Eighth Family as such."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding leaders shouted.

The expressions were more unfair than the last.

pit?

Hearing the words around him, Song Hai rolled his eyes and almost cursed.

It's true that you don't blush when you tell lies.

Just say this nonsense in the square of Zhongyi Temple, and it will make the heads of those eight families angry.

"How about this..."

"I will definitely not dare to go to His Majesty's side."

"You don't know about the side hall. When I walked in, I felt cold all over."

"But I can tell the president your request."

"He is a member of the royal family. If he is willing, there may be something to talk about."

Look at the group of people in the living room who are refusing to leave.

Song Hai thought about it again and again and finally relaxed.

Otherwise, these shameless people could lay the floor in his house.

As for whether Zhu Yujian talks to him or not, it has nothing to do with him.

"Okay, okay, please give Brother Song a few kind words."

"Yes, I have a fine pearl here. I have a fate with Brother Song today, so I will give it to you."

"I don't have anything else, but I have a lot of money. These are the ten thousand-tael banknotes I just exchanged. I asked Brother Song to give them to the Crown Prince of Tang Dynasty for me."

"I'm tired of having five of them."

Seeing Mr. Song Hai, he relaxed.

As if they were deeply afraid that Song Hai would regret it, these businessmen quickly took out various prepared gifts from their pockets.

The proportion of banknotes is quite large.

Obviously these people have also seen clearly His Majesty's determination to promote the bank.

Wouldn't it be better to just do what you want?

"Tsk..."

"alright."

"I'll go to the head office in the afternoon and hand these over to the president."

"Song can't guarantee whether it will work or not."

"Please come back!"

Song Hai sighed and made a gesture of invitation.

It was not easy until all these businessmen were sent out.

Looking at the pile of things on the table, Song Hai clicked his tongue and asked his servants to come over and pack them up.

By the way, he also took inventory.

The total value of this pile of gifts alone came to about 50 taels.

Really spent a lot of money.

That's all...let the president have a headache.

He is just a shareholder and has no part in this.

That night.

Zhu Youjian, who was eating in the side hall, saw Zhu Yujian walking in with large and small bags.

"Uncle is here?"

"You're here, why don't you bring any gifts?"

"So polite."

"My companion, please add some bowls and chopsticks."

Zhu Youjian is in a good mood these days.

Seeing Zhu Yujian coming, he immediately greeted him.

Zhu Yujian scratched his head when he saw this, then walked over and placed a bunch of things on the table.

"Ok?"

"Pearl Jade Agate..."

"And there are so many banknotes."

"What are you doing? You have become rich and you want to share it with me?"

Look at this pile of stuff.

Zhu Youjian was stunned and pulled twice curiously.

When I looked at it, I immediately saw that there were quite a few treasures inside.

"Um...Your Majesty, some businessmen found Song Hai and asked him to give it to me."

"I saw it was hot and brought it to His Majesty."

"You see how to deal with it..."

deal with?

Only after Zhu Youjian heard this did he understand.

It turns out that some businessmen couldn't help but start to have a relationship.

"It's really rich enough."

"This small pile is worth 50."

"What do they want? Royal merchant status?"

He held a pale golden pearl in his hand and looked at it for a long time

Zhu Youjian asked with a smile.

"I guess I want the opportunity to become an official."

"What they are jealous of should be the official seal in the hands of Song Hai and others."

"After all, the nine Song Hai people can be regarded as leaping over the dragon's gate."

Zhu Yujian shook his head, thought for a moment and expressed his opinion.

Although the bank's profits are quite high, they will remain the same after the nine banks are divided.

There are many wealthy businessmen here, and they probably want official positions.

"Official position?"

"Tsk..."

"How can you give this thing to anyone casually?"

"Who do they think I am?"

"How can I sell my official position for money?"

The corner of Zhu Youjian's mouth twitched and he felt like he was a little humiliated.

Am I the kind of person who is blind to money?

Damn it, you're all thinking shit.

Zhu Yujian next to him glanced at his Majesty and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

Is there any difference between Song Hai and others and using money to buy an official position?

If you hadn't killed the ministers in the court, they wouldn't even dare to let go.

See if anyone is causing trouble for you.

"How about asking Taizu for his opinion."

“These are people who hold a lot of cash.”

“If we can get them to support the development of the bank, that would definitely be a good thing.”

Although Zhu Yujian also felt that it was not good to give them official positions directly.

This thing is rare and expensive. If you give too much, it will not be valuable.

However, as the president of the bank, he is very greedy for the money in the hands of these people.

I was a little stiff for a while.

But it doesn't matter. As a smart man, Zhu Yujian is too lazy to fight.

An old house where a treasure.

If you don't understand, just ask Taizu.

Speaking of this, Zhu Yujian realized that Taizu was not seen in the side hall today.

He couldn't help but look at Zhu Youjian next to him.

What about the Taizu people?
