    "It is said that Rishenglong has been sold out, but looking at shopkeeper Wang's behavior now, it seems to be true!" The big households questioned.

    Shopkeeper Wang was startled, the news of the run had spread, and there must be more depositors coming to cash out the cash in the future.  But he changed his mind quite a bit, thinking that he just used this incident as an excuse, so he had the right to procrastinate for a while, and then said: "It is not a thing to say that there is a run. But it is true that there are more people withdrawing deposits than usual. This is all because  The bad consequences of Huilian account being seized. We Rishenglong didn't want to take this troubled water at first, but considering that the money of depositors would be wasted by this, we gritted our teeth and took on this burden. But you don't have to  Worried, Royal Bank has sufficient positions, so it doesn't matter if you mention it casually."

    Before anyone else could speak, he went on to say: "However, to tell you the truth, someone took advantage of the fact that the Huilian account was blocked, and before our Rishenglong intervened, they stole the Shanghai treasury of the Huilian account.  The position in Shanghai is a bit tight, but it doesn't matter. The positions in Nanjing, Suzhou, and Hangzhou are sufficient. Our boss has already adjusted the position. That is, in the past few days, your cash can be paid in full. These five days will delay you  For cash withdrawal, the store is willing to pay daily interest.¡±

    "How many days?" After all, all the big households have confidence in Rishenglong, or in other words, Shanxi merchants.

    "Five days, up to five days." Shopkeeper Wang said about it, five days is enough to transfer money from outside, and stretched out a slap.

    "Just give you five days." Everyone looked at each other and put forward another condition: "However, you can't show silver again before cashing it to us!"

    Shopkeeper Wang, who was at the end of his life, suddenly had a feeling that something was going on, and thought: 'This is also a way to prevaricate'.  He nodded reluctantly and said: "This request is also reasonable." So he ordered a guy surnamed Zhou: "Tell the situation to the previous depositors, and please rest assured that our Royal Bank has hundreds of millions of taels of deposits.  , everyone can't afford to run on it!"

    I don't know how many grandchildren he pretended to be, so the shopkeeper Wang sent the big family away. When he came back, he drank a bowl of herbal tea and said to the steward beside him, "Today is over, and there will be an explanation in five days. Shanghai can no longer count on it."  , I really have to go to Yangzhou, and leave now."

    "It's time for dinner, let's go after lunch." The steward said with concern.

    "There's fire in my throat, so I can't even eat." Shopkeeper Wang gave a wry smile, cupped his fists and said, "I'm asking my brother here. In times of crisis, we will help each other and get through this test. We are blessed to share!"

    The manager forced a smile and said, "You can go at ease."

    As soon as shopkeeper Wang left, the wave of bank runs disappeared.  More depositors came to the door in the afternoon, and the big depositors were no more talkative than the group in the morning. When they heard that the bank had suspended cashing, the crowd immediately became indignant and scolded everywhere, and it seemed that chaos was about to happen.  Fortunately, the patrol team just went to the back to have lunch, and now they came out to maintain order. The policeman Zhang didn't see shopkeeper Wang, so he asked the manager in the store, "Where is your shopkeeper?"

    The person in charge had no choice but to tell the truth: "I went to Yangzhou to raise funds."

    "Then what should we do here?" Catcher Zhang became anxious when he heard this, and said in a loud voice, "Didn't he abscond in fear of crime?!"

    It doesn't matter this sentence, the crowd, who were already raging, suddenly lost control of their emotions and rushed to the counter like a tide.  Under the anger of the crowd, the policemen did not dare to step forward to stop them, and all hid aside to watch the fun.  Fortunately, this store has perfect explosion-proof measures, no matter how shaken it is, the iron windows covered with wood will not budge.  The depositors vented their anger on the tables and chairs in the store, smashing everything to pieces.

    Seeing that if it continues to develop, it is likely to turn into a smashing and looting that endangers the market. Zhang Zhang had to force the police to arrest a few leaders who took the lead in making trouble, and then lined up the store to stop the riot.  Suppress it.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    ? In fact, the handling measures of the Miaoqian store were not too bad. The reason why the situation was still out of control was because the sub-branches in other places in Shanghai went up to close their doors one after another, which forced the crowd to pass, and finally caused a riot.

    The big shopkeeper of the Shanghai branch is Zhang Siwei's cousin Zhang Sixiao. He was in Shanghai this time, and with the strong support of Brother Nai, he mobilized a full 30 million taels of silver.  Before the end of the day, the top ten sub-branches closed their doors one after another, unable to cash the passbooks in the hands of depositors.

    Thirty million taels of silver deposits have been withdrawn by all the branches. Zhang Sixiao is completely hopeless, so he quickly ordered someone to rush to report the news to Yangzhou.

    Zhang Siwei is in Yangzhou. The purpose of his trip is to persuade the big salt merchants to inject capital into the Royal Bank Emperor Wanli hacked 50 million taels. After two months of auditing the general ledger and the distribution of accounts in various provinces, 30 million taels were found  Both bad debts and bad debts require huge sums of money to fill in the holes.

    theThe signboard can not fall down.  As long as the signboard does not fall down, we can print it at any cost.  This is the general rule, uncle, you must keep it in mind.  "

    "Yes, I understand." Wang Chongyi nodded and said: "Then Shanghai is open as usual?"

    "Of course as usual!" Zhang Siwei said: "It can't be delayed, and it will be dangerous for one day if it is delayed. You rushed to Shanghai overnight and communicated with those big households with your account books.  Withdraw, wait for us to turn around."

    "Where is Ziwei going?"

    "After convincing those salt merchants, I'm going to go to Beijing." After a long silence, he said again: "I want to ask the emperor for help, and it's all caused by his taking away the fifty million taels.  Like!"

    "This is the truth!" Wang Chongyi nodded approvingly and said: "The Royal Bank has half of the emperor's share. Besides, if it is really going to close down, the world will immediately fall into chaos, so he has to take care of it."

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    When Wang Chongyi was about to set off, he ran into Wang Benchang who had come to Shanghai for help. This was his nephew from the same family and he had to see him.

    "Uncle, if you go to Shanghai to sit in town, we will feel more at ease." Wang Benchang said with a flattering smile: "I wonder how much cash you brought there?"

    "Ten million taels." Wang Chongyi didn't hide it from him.

    "Ten million" Wang Benchang couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, and said in a low voice, "It's too little. One cent for ten branches is a drop in the bucket."

    "How much do you expect? The news of Shanghai has already reached here, and Yangzhou has also begun to run." Wang Chongyi said with a dark face: "Everywhere is waiting in full force. How do you ask me to help? Do you want to focus on one and lose the other?"

    "But without real money, how can we tide over the difficulties?"

    "Rely on building confidence." Wang Chongyi said in a deep voice: "Building confidence, the Royal Bank will still be a gold-lettered brand!"

    "" Wang Benchang didn't say anything anymore, but he didn't agree with it in his heart. He secretly said, there is no real money, let alone you, the chief treasurer, even if the God of Wealth comes, it will be in vain.

    ?Wang Benchang's opinion was insignificant. Wang Chongyi still rushed to Shanghai in the starry night. The 600-mile journey only lasted until dawn. The old bone in his 60s almost fell apart.

    He entered the city in the early morning of the 13th. As soon as he entered the city, he heard the newspaper boy shouting: "Shanghai is running on the wind, and the Royal Bank is about to die!"

    Wang Chongyi's face turned black when he heard it. What does the Shanghai branch do? Why can't the newspaper's mouth be blocked and let it talk nonsense?

    "You don't always know that the newspapers in Shanghai are different from those in the north. They insist on independent reporting. A few days ago, some of them were blocked because of He Xinyin's incident, and the rest still go their own way." Wang Benchang explained.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    The news of the Royal Bank attracted so much attention, although it was fueled by the newspapers, but it was more because of the stakes how many people entrusted their hard-earned money to it, and now it seems to be in jeopardy, naturally became the top priority in the hearts of the people.

    In the Qianyuan teahouse, there were four tea customers who came almost every day. Now only old man Zhou and Guanren Chen are left. Shopkeeper Hou and Master Ma went to line up at the gate of the bankAlthough there are still two days before they come again.  The door was opened, but in order to be in the front row and get back their hard-earned money earlier, the two had no choice but to sleep on the floor.

    As for old man Zhou and Guanren Chen, the reason why they can still sit still is not that they are not worried about their savings, but that they have been lucky enough to withdraw cash Old man Zhou has a lot of free time and is timid, and he is the first batch of depositors to withdraw cash.  As for Chen Guanren, relying on his relationship with Zhang Butou, he finally got the white money in his hands¡ª¡ª
