Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 361, Prodigal Son
"That's true~"

Zhu Houzhao heard it, thought for a while and nodded, then put his arms around Liu Jin's shoulders, walked out of Wangyue Tower with his shoulders and backs hooked, and walked very limitedly in the streets and alleys of the capital.

"Old Liu, let's go, let's go, this dumpling is good, go eat a bowl of dumplings."

Walking, walking, soon Zhu Houzhao came to a dumpling stand, and immediately pulled Liu Jin to sit down.

"You eat, I can't eat anymore."

Liu Jin was quite speechless about Zhu Houzhao's bad taste. He didn't come here to eat, he just came to show off his wealth. If I followed him out today, my stomach would burst and I ate too much.

"Eat as much as you like, eat as much as you like~"

Zhu Houzhao didn't care about these, he pulled Liu Jin to sit down, and immediately said loudly: "Boss, here are two bowls of dumplings."

"Okay, sir, wait a moment~"

When the boss saw that the business was coming, he immediately started to work happily, and soon two bowls of hot dumplings were served.

"Eat, eat, this dumpling tastes very good."

Zhu Houzhao started to eat the dumplings with big mouthfuls, looking like he was enjoying it.

Looking at a big bowl full of dumplings, Liu Jin had to lament the reality of businessmen in this era, but he really lost his appetite, so he reluctantly ate one, because he was too full and couldn't taste much at all. .

"Zhu Houzhao is really edible~"

Watching Zhu Houzhao eat a bowl of dumplings a few times, Liu Jin couldn't help shaking his head.

"Boss, check out~"

After eating, Zhu Houzhao was very proud, and this meal was his treat again.

"My lord, there are fourteen coins in total~"

When the boss heard the bill, he immediately came over happily and said with a smile.

"Hmm~"

Zhu Houzhao slowly took out a stack of purple hundred-yuan bank notes from his pocket, took out one of them, and put it on the table.

"My lord, I really can't find your hundred-yuan silver note, so please don't embarrass the villain."

Looking at the stack of hundred-yuan banknotes in Zhu Houzhao's hand, the boss stared straight at him, but soon, he couldn't laugh or cry. Looking at the hundred-yuan banknotes on the table, he didn't know what to do.

"Haha~ okay~"

This is what Zhu Houzhao wanted. Seeing the envious and jealous expression of the other party, and seeing this dumbfounding look, he felt extremely happy.

But he didn't come to eat Bawang's meal, it was purely for fun. After all, he was still a child. Soon he put away his hundred-yuan silver bill, and took out a shiny silver dollar from the money bag.

"Is this all right?"

"This is fine, this is fine~"

Seeing the silver dollar, the boss immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he is not a son who eats the overlord's meal. This kind of silver dollar is now the most popular item, and everyone likes it.

He took the silver dollar, looked at it carefully, then gently blew it to his ear, listened carefully, and quickly put it away in satisfaction, then began to give Zhu Houzhao change, and directly took out fifteen slings of copper coins, Start counting.

"Guest officer, here is your change, order some."

"No need to order, Liu Jin, put it away."

Zhu Hou didn't even look at the babysitting, just raised his legs and continued to stroll.

Poor Liu Jin was already sweating profusely at this moment. He was carrying a big cloth bag, which was filled with copper coins, which weighed tens of catties. Carrying such a heavy copper coin, he followed Zhu Houzhao Behind him, he was too distressed to speak out, so he could only keep looking at Liu Jin for help.

"The silver dollars in the bag are used up, go, go to the bank to exchange some."

Zhu Houzhao weighed the silver dollars in his wallet, and there were not many left, so he said to Liu Jin after thinking about it.

"Okay, just go to see how our bank's service attitude is."

Liu Jin nodded. He was about to go to the bank to have a look.

Although banknotes and silver dollars have been successfully circulated in the market, it has been difficult to carry out many other businesses of the First Bank of Ming Dynasty.

The loan business is not bad, such cheap interest is gradually being developed, and hundreds of thousands of taels of silver have been released, but the savings business is still zero, and no one has deposited their own silver in the bank. .

Soon, Liu Jin and Zhu Houzhao arrived at the Beijing branch of the First Bank of Ming Dynasty.

"You two sons, I don't know what business you need to handle?"

As soon as I entered the lobby, the staff immediately came forward to say hello and start consulting.

"I want to change some silver dollars~"

Zhu Houzhao said.

"How much do you want to change? Do you want to change it in silver or in bank notes?"

"It's enough to exchange a hundred for a bank note."

"Okay then, please wait here in the lobby. I will come and inform you when it's your turn."

"OK~"

Under the guidance of the staff, Liu Jin and Zhu Houzhao came to a seat by the window and sat down. Someone brought hot tea immediately, and the service attitude was still very good.

"Tsk tsk, Lao Liu, you still know how to do business."

Zhu Houzhao looked at the bright hall carefully, and thought to tell Liu Jin that Zhu Houzhao would benefit the most from the opening of the Daming First Bank.

"Your Highness has won the prize~"

Liu Jin said modestly.

At this moment, there was commotion at the entrance of the bank. More than a dozen large carriages with large boxes came to the entrance of the bank. A white-haired old man got off from the leading carriage. This old man was dressed in extraordinary clothes. , followed by a group of servants.

At the same time, a middle-aged man also got off the second carriage. This middle-aged man was wearing a Confucian shirt and a long robe, holding a fan in his hand. , A person whose body has been hollowed out by wine and lust.

"Father, do you really want to deposit all our family's money in this bank?"

Wang Enyi looked at the Daming First Bank in front of him, then at the old man beside him, and said very displeased.

The old man was so stubborn that he wanted to deposit all the money in the family in this bank, and he didn't know how he knew that there was interest in the bank, so he wanted to covet this little interest.

"If you don't save it, will you be defeated?"

"If you continue to lose, I won't even be able to afford coffin boards."

The gray-haired old man is called Wang Shirui, and he is a well-known big businessman in the capital area. Through his business, he has saved tens of thousands of acres of fertile land and a wealth of wealth.

It's just that he has no way to teach his children. Although there are many wives and concubines, he only gave birth to this one son. He doted on Wang Enyi too much since he was a child, so that he became a playboy.

Ever since he got old, he no longer has the energy to take care of business matters, and Wang Enyi only knows how to eat, drink and play, and doesn't know how to do business at all, so he has no choice but to withdraw from the business slowly and buy a lot of The fertile land, ready to let his son live on this fertile land.

But who knows, this rebellious son, he doesn't care about eating, drinking and having fun, and even got into gambling. Over the years, he has slowly squandered a lot of the huge family business that Wang Shirui has accumulated.

This is because the old man is still there. If the old man is gone, he can see that his son will definitely ruin the family business.

At that time, the old man will not rest in peace even if he dies, and he will be sorry for his ancestors.

The opening of Daming No. [-] Bank also carried out a lot of publicity in the business circles and elite circles. After Mr. Wang heard about it, he immediately moved his mind and thought about depositing his family's money in the No. [-] Bank. Interest, this money can be used to generate money, and the most important thing is the regular deposit in the bank. This money cannot be withdrawn casually. In this way, it can prevent my son from ruining his family business.

At least the money stored in the bank can let the family eat interest every year. If the family business is really going to be ruined in the future, the interest is enough to support the family.

"Father, it's safer to keep this money at home, and put it in the bank. Who knows if they will swallow it."

Of course, Wang Enyi didn't want to see this money stored in the bank. The old man hadn't lived for a few years, and soon his huge family business would be his own. At that time, no one would care about him, and he had money, so he could spend it however he wanted As for whether the money will be spent and what to do after the money is spent, he has never thought about this aspect.

"The First Bank of Ming Dynasty is today's property, how could it swallow your little money?"

"Hmph~ If you look like a human being, I won't be like this."

When Mr. Wang Shirui heard this, he was even more angry, and the crutch in his hand was about to hit him.

It's not that he doesn't worry that the bank will swallow up the money, but he knows better that once the money reaches his son, he will spend it all immediately.

If it's just eating, drinking, having fun, visiting brothels and so on, in fact, the Wang family's family business can be sustained. The key is gambling. Gambling has no bottom, no matter how big the family business is, it can be gambled.

Therefore, after careful consideration, and after discussing with many people, he decided to deposit all the silver and gold in his hands in the bank, and to deposit them for a long period of time, which cannot be taken out before the maturity date, and earns interest every year. That's it.

After all, this is Mr. Liu's property, and the big bosses behind it are Emperor Hongzhi and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and they can still be trusted.

"Father~ I've heard that if the money is deposited for a certain period of time, it can't be withdrawn until it expires. What if the family is in a hurry to use the money?"

Wang Enyi was still unwilling to persuade him that after entering the bank, it would be very difficult to take out the vain money.

"I kept the pocket money at home, and I still have land every year. If you don't starve to death, it's best to starve to death, you bastard, so I won't worry about it."

Old man Wang hated that iron could not be made into steel. Seeing his appearance, he resolutely walked into the First Bank of Daming, and the servants behind him walked in carrying boxes of silver.

"Interesting~"

Seeing this scene with his own eyes, Liu Jin couldn't help laughing immediately. After thinking about it, he wondered if he could produce a special time deposit product with a super long term, 99 years should be good.

　Ge You's life seems to be gambling and gambling all his property~
