Chapter 1766 Is the capital big or small?
"Boss, please just say it casually, let's listen casually, and you won't go to your heart if you want to have fun." Zhou Changshou said with a kind face.
The boss then felt a little relieved, held the copper coins in his hand tightly, and said in a low voice: "This situation has been going on for a while. Those who used to deposit money at the official house and those who bought the government bonds, all lined up to get the money. I heard that it was because the court suffered a defeat in Ganzhou and Shaanxi. Not only did it cost a lot of money, but it also lost the battle, wouldn't it be necessary to pay compensation to the Liao Kingdom?"
"The court has no money, so where does this money come from? It's just taken from the pockets of ordinary people, so everyone is in danger. Everyone is afraid that the money they have saved hard in their lives will be wasted, so they all rushed over to take out the money first."
The boss said, pointing to the sign placed at the entrance of the money shop not far away, and said, "You see, the money shop wrote that sign a few days ago, saying that each person withdraws up to ten taels of cash a day, more than ten taels, less than one hundred taels, and requires an appointment, and more than one hundred taels, approval is required, and the reasons for using the money are explained."
"After such a fuss, isn't it more confirmed that the money in the bank had been emptied by the court? Everyone complained, but in the end they could still get some silver. Generally, ordinary people only had dozens of taels of savings after they were killed, and hundreds of taels were added. If they thought of a solution, they could always get it out, which was a little more troublesome."
"This is pretty good. After all, I'm in the capital. I heard that many money shops are completely unavailable to withdraw money. The local people have no choice but to go to big cities to get it and try their luck in other places. In the past few days, I have received many foreign guests from other places, all of whom are anxious to get money with silver notes."
"The worst thing is that after doing this, the banknotes of the official banknotes are not working well. Some people want to buy things directly with the banknotes, but no one in the market dares to ask for them. You said that this bad dish is not bad."
Zhou Changshou frowned when he heard this, "Don't recognize the silver bill? Can the government spare him if he knows?"
The boss smiled and said, "Who would be so stupid that he would not recognize the banknotes of the official money house? But before doing business, for example, I, a tofu man, want to buy beans? If I take out the banknotes to settle the score, people will ask what banknotes it is. If it is from the official money house, it would be out of stock, not selling it, or you can raise the price to the point where you can't accept it. Then isn't this the transaction that has not been negotiated, it's normal to pull it off."
Zhou Changshou was stunned for a while, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "It is true that we cannot underestimate the wisdom of the people."
"Okay OK."
The boss stood up, sued him, and said, "I still have business here. I'll use it very slowly, so I won't be with you. However, if you come from other places to get the money, you should go in line as soon as possible. Seeing this scene, you may not be sure that the money houses in the capital will not be able to withdraw the money. By then, your life savings will turn into ruins. It's really a pity."
Shaking his head, the boss went back to take care of his stall.
Zhou Ping'an slowly finished drinking the tofu brain, wiped his mouth and stood up and said, "Let's go to Zhao's Mansion."
Zhou Changshou looked up and asked, "Just go directly?"
"Otherwise, can you go to the East Factory first to bring the Jinyiwei?"
Zhou Ping'an said with a smile: "Believe it or not, now Zhao Xuanji already knows that I have entered the city, and he is probably sending someone to investigate you."
Zhou Changshou frowned and said, "He is so capable?"
"The capital."
Zhou Ping'an sighed: "To say it is big, it is so big that it can control the world; to say it is small, it is so small that it can be controlled by one person."
