As soon as "tomorrow's disaster" was said, Chongzhen and Wang Chengen became nervous again, and they all stared at Lu Hanqiang, waiting for him to tell the truth.
Lu Hanqiang told the situation and serious consequences of the run that was about to happen tomorrow and was bound to occur one by one, and the faces of Chongzhen and Wang Chengen, who were bluffed at that time, turned pale again.
It's not that they don't have the determination, but that this matter is really too serious, so serious that it concerns their future money.
"Is it really that serious," Chongzhen asked in disbelief.
Cao Huachun stood up and bowed: "Long live, Lu Banyu is telling the truth."
Looking at Chongzhen, who didn't believe it, Cao Huachun could only stand up again and help Lu Hanqiang: "This matter is obviously secretly presided over by someone, burning the bank headquarters is just the first step, killing Lu Banyu is actually just trying to fish in troubled waters, but the bigger purpose is to make the depositors panic intensify, and the next thing must be to spread rumors overnight, forming a bank run turmoil, this is the fundamental, after the old slave was driven to Nanjing by Wei Zhongxian, he did see such a money bank, which is usually very beautiful, but the result was calculated by his peers, and the funds did not work well, As a result, rumors immediately spread in the market, and in just three or two days, the money bank went bankrupt, and the owner, who was originally known as South Half Street, also committed suicide by throwing himself into the river, so the family was ruined. ” Lu Hanqiang gratefully looked at Cao Huachun, who was helping him, and then frowned: "The more terrible thing is still to come, that is, this kind of rumors and panic will be infinitely amplified and spread, and will spread along the canal to the south, at that time, under the impetus of well-intentioned people, the entire banking system will completely collapse in the Ming Dynasty." ” Then, Lu Hanqiang knelt down and kowtowed to Chongzhen very solemnly, this is kowtow, no matter what the purpose, it is sincere, "Long live, victory or defeat in this move, we must survive this difficulty, only through this difficulty, the bank's business can really develop and grow, not only will it add countless profits to the internal fund, but more importantly, it will alleviate the financial crisis of the Ming Dynasty, long live, this time we must work together." ” Chongzhen was very hesitant at this time, because, hearing the terrible consequences of Lu Hanqiang's words, it would completely shake his future money bag, especially at present, Lu Hanqiang used the freedom of sea trade as collateral, and would give his imperial court a loan of 5 million to solve the urgent need for the bank to survive.
But the reason for Emperor Chongzhen's hesitation is that what he should do is obvious, Lu Hanqiang means that he wants to take out his own silver to deal with the upcoming run, to keep the bank, a commercial bank with broad prospects in the future, and his own silver is already very little, if he lends it to Lu Hanqiang, what kind of result will there be, if he does not repay himself, then he will be completely bankrupt first.
Lu Hanqiang had already seen Chongzhen's difficult choice, and immediately stepped forward and said, "Therefore, no matter what, we must get through this difficulty, as long as we spend five or seven days, you can transfer funds from Jinan Mansion, Daimyo's Mansion and other banks, and at that time, Yili Bank will not collapse for ten thousand years."
Then we can realize all the policies that were cheated by those bastards in Donglin, take back from our hands in disguise, and amass huge wealth for this court. ” Looking at the somewhat moved Emperor Chongzhen, Lu Hanqiang added another fire, and said bitterly, "This fire is definitely a conspiracy, he is not only aimed at me Lu Hanqiang, burned me but a small courtyard, at the same time, he burned our hope for the future financial relief of the Ming Dynasty, I think there is definitely the shadow of the Donglin Party here, those things, only know empty talk and mislead the country, only know that they fight for their own selfish interests, but they forget this Ming Dynasty, forget that the emperor is their father, forget the saint taught the king to worry about the humiliation of the ministers, The righteousness of the king's humiliation and death, when the Ming court was in crisis, not only did they not come out to help, but they wanted to fall into the ground, and what kind of salary was drawn from the bottom of the kettle, this is the crux of the problem, please long live the Ming Dynasty."
This is the most heart-wrenching heart disease of Emperor Chongzhen, in the last battle of Gyeonggi, he saw that the Manchu Dynasty civil and military one by one passed the buck to each other and did not take responsibility, and then became a mud bodhisattva, this old empire is counting on his own Qiangang dictatorship, he does not want to be dictatorial, but he also knows that his age and experience are there, how can he let himself be independent The performance of those ministers in the court at that time disappointed him, and finally Lu Hanqiang changed the situation and stabilized the Ming Dynasty, so now from all kinds of things, It must be those Donglin party members who stumbled on Lu Hanqiang again, and now in his heart, Emperor Chongzhen began to rely on Lu Hanqiang again, because he knew that only Lu Hanqiang could solve the problem for him, so after being ruthlessly given a small report to Donglin by Lu Hanqiang, he said decisively: "How to spend it, just say it with the reading, I will spare no effort to support it."
"Chongzhen is not stupid, although he doesn't understand the operation of the bank, but Lu Hanqiang, who has the most trusted political performance, and Cao Huachun, who is the most intimate of himself, will definitely not be fake, and this matter must be dealt with with all the time.
Seeing that the time had come, Lu Hanqiang said firmly: "Please borrow one million taels of silver from the bank, and it will arrive at the bank early tomorrow morning." ” As soon as these words came out, the imperial study immediately became dead, borrowing or not borrowing too much, especially lending millions, if you let the hundred officials see that they still have silver in their pockets, then the consequences will be very difficult in the future, but if they don't borrow, the consequences will be terrible, after weighing again and again, Chongzhen still gritted his teeth and said to Wang Chengen: "How much silver is there in the treasury now" Wang Chengen shuddered, opened his mouth and said: "500,000" Chongzhen knocked on the table: To be honest, when is this.
Wang Chengen was trembling, so he had to say according to the real number: "A little more than a million." ” To tell the truth, a large inner imperial city was originally supposed to be tens of millions of pure silver, but now it is only a million dollars in silver, which is indeed a little cold, which can't help but make Lu Hanqiang moved, it seems that his classmate is really poor.
"Okay, lend it all to the companion for emergency."
Then he didn't care about Wang Chengen, who was about to cry, "Companion reading, that's all I have for my internal money, at the same time, let's say okay, I will borrow, and only borrow you for five days, and I must return it after five days, otherwise, I, tens of thousands of eunuchs and palace maids inside and outside the palace, will starve to death." ” Chongzhen is telling the truth, now the cost of the internal money is very large, especially if he is always run by the household department, looking for the silver money that Wei Zhongxian scavenged for his brother Huo Huo is gone, if it weren't for Lu Hanqiang's newspaper and the firm to provide them with financial resources, it can't be said that it is really just like in history, Chongzhen can't even get the opening fee for transferring Guan Ning Tieqi to save his life, so he had to hang himself.
Looking at Chongzhen's open-minded attitude, Lu Hanqiang nodded and solemnly promised, but in his heart he solemnly promised: Daming can die no matter what, but he can't die in the hands of rogues who only destroy and have no achievements, that is, he can't die in the hands of Jiannu, and at all, he can't die in financial bankruptcy, because of me, the lucky boy Lu Hanqiang. t1706231537:
