The first emperor of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 337 Defects of Zhenguan Bill of Exchange

Sure enough, as Li Chengqian expected, the purchase of Zhenguan money orders became more popular in the next few days.

Even people with some savings are willing to deposit their money in the Datang Zhenguan Bank.Although you need to pay a certain fee, it is at least safe.

A month passed in the blink of an eye, and on this day Li Chengqian was asking Xiangli what he was talking about in Cheng'en Hall.

But Xiao Guizi walked in with Luke, and said to Li Chengqian: "Your Highness, Luke has returned from the front of the two armies."

"You guys wait outside for a while, Ben Gong and Xiangli Wentian have urgent matters." Li Chengqian said with a gloomy expression.

Xiao Guizi took Luke out with a nod, and waited for Li Chengqian's call at the door.But suddenly Xiao Guizi felt a pain in her stomach.

Then he opened his mouth and said to Luke: "Don't run around here, I'll go to the latrine for convenience."

"Eunuch Xiao Guizi, you can go at ease, I will stay here motionless and wait for His Royal Highness to call." At this time, Luke should be as disciplined as possible.

Xiao Guizi nodded, then turned and walked towards the hut, leaving Luke alone outside the Cheng'en Hall.

But at this time Luke heard that Li Chengqian was scolding Xiangli Wentian loudly.I only heard Li Chengqian say: "You mean to tell me that as long as you can imitate the font on the Zhenguan money order, you can change the amount of the Zhenguan money order?"

"Theoretically, this is the case. At that time, my subordinates were only doing it for the convenience of issuing money orders. That's why they ignored the key point." Xiangli Wentian said in a guilty voice.

"Then tell me, what should I do now?" Li Chengqian asked angrily.

"The only way now is to recall the issued money order and reissue it with a new money order." Xiangli Wentian said.

"It's easy to say, do you know how many Zhenguan money orders have been exchanged now? It's tens of millions. Did you call them back whenever you wanted?" Li Chengqian said angrily.

"This subordinate's momentary mistake has brought so much trouble to His Highness the Crown Prince. This subordinate is willing to use this head of Shang Shang as atonement." Xiangli Wentian said sadly.

"What's the use of killing you? Hurry up and distribute new money orders everywhere. The original money orders must never be used again."

"I hope they didn't discover this loophole, otherwise I will really go bankrupt. And my father will not spare me." Li Chengqian said after sighing.

Not long after, Luke saw Xiangli Wentian walking out of Cheng'en Hall with his head downcast.At this time, Xiao Guizi also ran back, and took Luke into Cheng'en Hall.

Looking at Luke who was bowing to him, Li Chengqian said, "You should have been allowed to stay here for three years. After all, the 50 guan owed by your Fanyang Lu family has not been paid off."

"But you look like a man in front of the two armies, so I decided to give you a chance to go home and visit your relatives. The time is only one month, and I hope you can come back after one month."

Luke couldn't be happier to hear that he could go home.Immediately, he said to Li Chengqian with a smile on his face: "Don't worry, Your Highness the Crown Prince, when your subordinates come back, they will never forget to bring some special products to His Highness the Crown Prince."

……

"Father, my son has some news." Zheng Shuang came to his father Zheng Lun and said.

"What news can make you so excited? Could it be that Kaiyuan Tongbao has fallen from the sky?" Zheng Lun continued to look at the book in his hand, and casually said to Zheng Shuang.

"Father, you are really right. This time it is really not much different from sending money from the sky." Zheng Shuang said to Zheng Lun with a smile on his face.

Zheng Lun couldn't help but put down the book in his hand, and asked Zheng Shuang: "What is it, please tell me in detail."

"Father, look." Zheng Shuang said while taking out a Zhenguan money order from his bosom, and placed it directly in front of Zheng Lun.

Zheng Lun looked at the Zhenguan money order that Zheng Shuang took out, and said with a puzzled face: "What's so strange about this thing, it will become like waste paper in a short time."

"Father, take a closer look at the place where the amount is filled in this Zhenguan money order. Can you do this?" After Zheng Shuang finished speaking, he picked up the brush on the table and wrote a few words on the Zhenguan money order.

Following the words written by Zheng Shuang, they appeared on the Zhenguan draft.The Zhenguan bill of exchange, which was originally only five guan, was directly changed to 55 guan.

And it seemed that there was no sense of disobedience, which made Zheng Lun's face change drastically.He directly took the Zhenguan money order in his hand and looked at it repeatedly.

If Zheng Shuang's notes were imitated a little bit, the money order of five pennies would really become 55 pennies.

It turns out that the Zhenguan money order has a very spacious place to fill in the amount.Although when exchanging, the corresponding amount was written on it.

But because of the format, the amount written is very low.Unless the amount of your money order is millions of guan, it is simply not enough to write the whole money order.

After watching it, Zheng Lun said, "Did you discover this or who discovered it?"

"This is news from Fan Yang's Lu family. It is said that Luke learned about it from the prince. Now His Royal Highness is trying to make up for it."

"At first, I didn't believe it, but when I exchanged the Zhenguan money order at the shop in the 21st century, I found that the format of the money order had changed." After Zheng Shuang finished speaking, he took out another money order from his arms.

I saw that the pattern and seal on this money order have not changed, but there is a difference in the place where the amount is written.Originally only the amount was written above, but the words Kaiyuan Tongbao were added.

Zheng Lun couldn't help laughing out loud after seeing it, and then said with two money orders: "Originally, I wanted to find someone to imitate this Zhenguan money order, but it seems that there is no need for that now."

This kind of thing happened not only in the Zheng family in Xingyang, but also in many big families.It can be said that it spread to the ears of those aristocratic families overnight.

……

"Everyone should know why we gathered everyone together today. After preparing for such a long time, it's time to close the net. I don't know if all the patriarchs are ready?" Cui Kunlun, the patriarch of the Cui family in Qinghe, said.

"You Qinghe Cui's patriarch's grandson, Cui Yong, is a celebrity around His Royal Highness. Aren't you afraid of your grandson's personal favor by doing this?" Wang Renyou said with a smile.

"You should be grateful to the crown prince for being the head of the Wang family in Taiyuan. Aren't you also sitting here?" Cui Kunlun said to Wang Renyou with a smile.

"I'm sitting here to tell you that some things are best done in moderation, so as not to overdo it and make everyone look bad." Wang Renyou said to Cui Kunlun in a cold voice.

"It seems that Patriarch Wang means that he is not going to help everyone together?" Lu Canghai said to Wang Renyou.
