    A new business suddenly appeared on Zhuque Street in Chang'an City.  The two huge stone lions at the entrance are only slightly smaller than those at the entrance of Tai Chi Palace.  None of the other prince's families have as big a business as this one.

    There are two rows of black-clad guards at the door, all carrying horizontal knives.  Each one of them has a face full of flesh, and looks like they are not good people.

    "Whose business is this? It's so grand. I don't know which noble family it belongs to. It's a pity that it's in such a good location." Shopkeeper Huang, who was selling rice, said with his hands folded.

    "That's right! Such a grand ostentation must be the business of a noble person. I just don't know why!" The person who spoke was the shopkeeper Zhang of the silk shop.

    "Yes! Yes!" Several nearby shopkeepers looked at it and said with smiles.

    Occupying a prime location, open such a business.  It has been two days since the business opened, but not a single customer has come to the door.  Except for those nobles with deep pockets and poor brains, no one else does this.

    While several people were talking, a young man suddenly walked over.  Holding a thick stack of paper in his hand, he immediately cupped his fists and cupped his hands when he saw the shopkeepers and said with a smile: "Guys, the business is newly opened and welcome your patronage." After saying that, he stuffed the paper in his hand to the shopkeepers.

    "Oh! The kraft paper produced by the Yun family costs two guan for a roll. Are you just giving it away like this?" Shopkeeper Zhang looked at the paper in his hand and immediately cried out.

    "Loan discount, monthly interest is two cents (0.2 thousandths). Two cents interest? Is such a good thing really possible?" Shopkeeper Huang's eyes widened, loan sharking was rampant in Chang'an City.  Five cents of profit is already a kind person, but two cents of profit is simply a free gift.

    "This bank also undertakes deposit exchange business, which means you will earn interest when you deposit your money in the bank. The amount of interest depends on how much money you deposit. You can discuss this with my shopkeeper. If you go to purchase goods from other places,  As long as you bring the bank's receipt, you can withdraw money from a local bank. From now on, you no longer have to carry carts of copper coins to other places to buy." The young man said with a smile.

    "Qianzhuang? Are you telling the truth?" Shopkeeper Zhang's eyes lit up. He goes to Jiangnan every year to buy silk.  Pulling cartloads of copper coins, you also have to worry about bandits and bandits on the road.  Now that there is such a good thing, it¡¯s natural to have stars in your eyes.

    "Absolutely yes, the bank is the business of my family, the Duke of Chu. The reputation is guaranteed. Now Yuezhou, Yangzhou, Jiangning and other prosperous and prosperous places in the south of the Yangtze River have bank branches. Not to mention places like Luoyang, even Qinzhou  , Zhuozhou, and central Sichuan also have bank branches. Just keep your heart in your stomach!" After the young man finished speaking, he cupped his hands and continued to distribute leaflets with handwriting of the same size and impossibly neat.

    The young man¡¯s words made several shopkeepers look at each other.  Help yourself keep the money and return the money to yourself. Can such a good thing hit your own head?

    "It seems that the business of the Duke of Chu cannot be fake! Lintong is the fiefdom of the Duke of Chu, and it is the richest place in the world. If anyone in the Tang Dynasty is short of money, the Duke of Chu will not be short of money."

    "Yes! Every time I go to Lintong to buy goods, I can see people depositing money in Wang Qianzhuang. I thought this was only available in Lintong, but I didn't expect it to be found in Chang'an. I really want to give it a try!"

    "Brother! Don't reveal your money, just in case!"

    A group of shopkeepers were talking when they suddenly saw an old man who looked like a country farmer entering the bank carrying a bag of copper coins.  After a while, I came out and the money bag on my shoulder was gone.  Looks refreshed!

    "Old brother, did you just go to the bank to deposit money?" Shopkeeper Huang stopped the old man and asked.

    "That's right! The old man didn't ride in a car, and he didn't ride a donkey. With more than twenty kilograms of money, you let the old man carry it back to Lintong?" Although the old man was dressed in ordinary clothes, he was not afraid of these luxuriously dressed shopkeepers at all.

    As soon as he spoke, the shopkeepers knew that he was from Lintong.  There is no such thing as an old man from the Central Committee in other places!  Since Lintong became the fiefdom of the Duke of Chu and factories were built one after another, the people of Lintong did not look down upon the people of Chang'an.

    In the past, if a young man from Lintong could marry a daughter-in-law from Chang'an City, it would be a blessing.  Nowadays, if a daughter-in-law in Chang'an City wants to marry someone in Lintong, she has to make a selection.  Wealth makes Lintong people confident, and people with average energy and spirit cannot imitate that.

    "Is it really safe to keep this money in the bank?" several shopkeepers asked in unison.

    "Is it true that it can be exchanged for copper coins elsewhere?" It was shopkeeper Zhang who asked this question. He would soon go to Jiangnan again, and it would be of great benefit to him to ask this question clearly.  Not to mention anything else, you will save a lot on shipping costs alone.

    "Safe? Is the reputation of my Duke of Chu still fake? The old man has the bank's credentials in his hand, and he can exchange them for copper coins when he returns to Lintong." The old man rolled his eyes.?The bank will repay it on your behalf.  The bank here will give you another 200 yuan for turnover. What do you think?  "Ling Jing thought for a while and said.

    "Two points of annual profit?" Shopkeeper Huang asked doubtfully.

    "Two points! Children are innocent!"

    "Catch! Hit! Hit!" Shopkeeper Huang was so happy that snot bubbles came out of his nose. This time he not only paid off the debt to the King of Hell.  With an extra two hundred dollars in turnover, the pie finally fell from the sky, and it was pure beef filling.  As for the two-cent annual profit, he didn't take it to heart at all.  The interest is only a dozen dollars a year, and this price cannot be more generous.

    "Please wait a moment!" Ling Jing stretched out his hand to greet the boy outside, and soon the boy brought two contracts.  They are all made of the best kraft paper from the Yun family, and the words on them are also in beautiful printing.  After filling in the amount in the blank space, Ling Jing placed the contract in front of Shopkeeper Huang.

    "Shopkeeper Huang, if you sign this contract, you can get two hundred dollars. And we will be responsible for delivering the money to your house." Ling Jing pushed the contract.

    Shopkeeper Huang picked up the contract and looked at it carefully. His eyes could see the coils of mosquito coils, and he couldn't see any of them that was not good for him.  It can be said that everything is considered for oneself.  What are you waiting for? Without saying a word, he took the brush and signed his name where Ling Jing pointed.  I also used ink pads and took fingerprints to feel at ease.

    "You drink tea! I'll ask someone to prepare the money. You and the money will go home together in a while." Ling Jing said with a smile.

    "Thank you! Thank you very much!" Shopkeeper Huang felt refreshed and took a sip of tea, feeling the fragrance lingering in his teeth.  The stuff produced by the Yun family is so good!

    Not long after, a big man came over and reported that the money was ready.  Ling Jing immediately walked out with Shopkeeper Huang. Shopkeeper Huang was stunned just after he left.  Because he saw shopkeeper Zhang who had just come in at the door. After the two were stunned for a moment, they both smiled awkwardly and held hands as a greeting.

    There was a carriage outside the door, pulling twenty bags full of copper coins.  One bag is worth ten guan, and twenty bags are exactly 200 guan.

    Seven or eight guards escorted 200 Guanqian and followed Shopkeeper Huang back to Mipu.  As soon as the happy shopkeeper Huang entered the door, he saw the dead face of Pi Guogong's steward.

    "Hey! Shopkeeper Huang, how come you are rich? You owe my father-in-law eight hundred dollars in principal and interest, so you should pay it back!"

    "If you owe money, you have to pay it back. The steward can go to the bank with me, and the eight hundred guan will be handed over immediately." Shopkeeper Huang was about to speak when Ling Jing suddenly stood up from behind him.

    "Qianzhuang? Who are you?" the steward shouted sharply.  Seeing Shopkeeper Huang pulling back the copper coins, he felt something was wrong.  Now that I saw the bank manager, I was even more frightened.

    He doesn¡¯t care about the principal and interest of the eight hundred guan, what he wants is this shop.  Shopkeeper Huang's shop is on Zhuque Street, and its estimated price is at least one thousand guan.  If it is used for business, the income of several hundred dollars a year should not be a problem.

    It was because I was optimistic about this shop that I lent money to Shopkeeper Huang.  Seeing that good things are about to happen, he will also be rewarded by his master.  But unexpectedly, some kind of bank was inserted into it.  But I want to see who is going to harm my good deeds.

    "Ha! Ha! I am Ling Jing, the big shopkeeper of the bank. Shopkeeper Huang owes you eight hundred dollars in principal and interest, and the bank will repay it on your behalf. Steward, if you want money, follow me to the bank. I will give you the money immediately.  , if it is inconvenient to take care of things, you can still send them to Duke Pi's mansion. But I think there are still carriages in Duke Pi's mansion!"

    When Ling Jing spoke to the manager, he was far less polite than to Shopkeeper Huang.  Shopkeeper Huang on the side couldn't help but straighten his waist a little after hearing this.  With the backing of a banker, you are no longer afraid of blackmail from this manager!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
