The six hired men were all talking at this time.All of them looked uneasy.There is no work, no stable income, and it is a terrible thing for them to earn money by working and have no land.But now the entire Yingtianfu area is in a depression after the rebellion, and even the experienced old shopkeeper is difficult to find a new job.Therefore, in order to have a job, they now have to continue to come to their owner Du Shouchang.Seeing that these six employees were also looking forward to the reopening of their shop, Du Shouchang couldn't help but feel a sense of mission and responsibility.At the same time, Du Shouchang was also willing to give up the wages he owed because of these hired workers in order for their shops to reopen, and even took the initiative to make money for themselves, which also bred gratitude."
Du Lao Liu!
You're there!
I'll tell you a good thing!
The people of the Funing Marquis Mansion took a fancy to your shop, and sent the palace steward to sign the deed, and wanted to buy your shop for fifty yuan of silver. ”At this time, Bai Shaohong, the chief of Du Shouchang's workshop, came over.And behind this Bai Shaohong, there was a fat man in a brown brocade robe.This fat man is the palace manager of the Funing Marquis Mansion in the mouth of Bai Shaohong, the chief soldier.The palace steward was riding on a horse at this time, and he didn't look at Du Shouchang, he only flicked his nails and said: "Kneel down and kowtow to thank you, thank you, and then sign the deed, and the fifty silver coins will be given to you immediately!"
”Before Du Shouchang could reply, Hang Chunjiang, an old employee who had been with Du Shouchang for a long time and was also the shopkeeper of Du Shouchang's former garment shop, said: "How can this work!"
The owner's shop is the best shop in this area, the front and back are next to the street, how can it be worth one or two hundred silver dollars, your price is too ruthless, the owner, you can't agree!
”"Yes, the owner, you are an ancestral shop, besides, if this shop becomes the property of this Hou Mansion, what should we do?"
Another hired man chimed in.At this time, the palace steward said with a smile: "What should you do, hmph, if you want to be able to eat together, you will naturally sell yourself as a slave and go to the Funing Hou Mansion to be a slave, with a monthly monthly silver of five hundred yuan, work in this shop honestly, and then let your sons and grandsons continue to work for the Funing Hou Mansion, and the daughters and granddaughters and granddaughters will be our slaves and maids of the Funing Hou, maybe one day they will be looked down upon by the old men and accepted as people in the house, and you will be developed by then!"
It's time to ride on my head!
”"I'm an innocent person and a slave, I won't do it, otherwise, I won't have the opportunity to study and take the imperial examination in the future."
Hang Chunjiang spoke."
Don't be ignorant!"
The palace steward didn't have to say a word, and then looked at Du Shouchang: "Du Lao Liu of Renqing Fang, what, the grace of our Hou Mansion, don't you still appreciate it, kneel down and kowtow!"
”Du Shouchang bowed down first and said: "Thanks to the grace of the Hou Mansion, this shop is an ancestral inheritance, so the small people don't dare to sell it cheaply, otherwise they will be sorry for their ancestors." ”"Do you think that your shop, apart from our Hou Mansion can buy it, who else has the spare money to buy your shop?
Also, your goods and silver have been burned and robbed by the rebels, Bai Zongjia said, your family is old and young, and there are eight people, the old is sick, the little one has just been born, and they are all in urgent need of money, and they still owe the wages of many hired workers, your shop can no longer be opened, don't you hurry up and take 50 silver dollars to ask the doctor to buy rice and pay for your wages, do you still have to hold on, regardless of the life or death of your family?!
Fifty silver dollars, this Hou Mansion is enough to be gracious, don't be dissatisfied, believe it or not, Lao Tzu can forcibly occupy your shop with a word, and let the people of the Yamen directly change your property to the Hou Mansion!
”The palace steward shouted."
These heroes are really hateful!
Take advantage of this time to lower the price and buy the shops of our merchants!
Now it's Du Laoliu's ready-to-wear shop, and the next thing is my family's paint shop!
”"Yes, we are still forced to be slaves, although we can rely on the master's fine clothes and food to be domineering in these years, but there is no freedom, and it also affects future generations, there is no chance to turn over, sorry ancestors, if you meet a bad master, you can't avenge if you are killed.""
The industry of the Funing Hou Mansion is about to occupy half of the street, why is it not enough to get tired of it, because his family has a green building, and everyone does not dare to open a green building here, and he is also a little domineering!"
Because they saw that there were people in the vicinity of Du Shouchang's shop, the merchants in the nearby neighborhood flocked to it, and after learning about the cause and effect, they started to talk about it, and they all felt angry."
Please also ask the palace steward to forgive me, the small shop is not big, it is not worth much silver, and it is not much profitable to operate, compared to Hou Ye's other industries that are making money every day, it is not beneficial to forcibly occupy it, so why should the Hou Mansion forcibly occupy it, and please be kind to the Hou Mansion, don't be with the small general knowledge."
Du Shouchang said and said: "In addition, the small one has already borrowed five hundred silver dollars from the government-run Daming Bank, and it is completely enough to repay the wages, ask for a doctor to grab medicine, buy grain and goods, and let the shop reopen, so the palace steward does not have to worry about the small ordinary merchant, and now the emperor's grace is vast, and the small one believes that his own industry will return to the past." ”"Boss, is this true?!"
Hang Chunjiang asked excitedly."
Owner, what is Daming Bank?"
Among the other Du family employees, some people were also busy asking."
It's the government-run money bank mentioned in the newspaper, where you can borrow money from the government."
Du Shouchang replied."
Five hundred silver dollars is indeed enough!
There are still a lot of leftovers, anyway, the hired workers and shops are still there, just rebuild the warehouse that was burned down at the beginning, and then enter a batch of Songjiang cotton cloth!
”Hang Chunjiang continued."
So, with hope for our wages, the shop can be reopened?
Yes, the owner!
”At this time, another Du family employee asked excitedly."
Yes!
We will immediately compensate you for the wages you owe, and ask you to send other employees who have not yet received their wages to receive them. ”Du Shouchang replied with a smile."
The emperor really speaks, he said before that he would take tens of millions of silver dollars to save us, but I didn't expect to give the owner 500 silver dollars, is the interest rate high for the owner?"
An employee took the initiative to mention the emperor because he was the eyeliner of the East Factory."
Because it's less than a thousand silver dollars, there is no interest for three years!"
Du Shouchang did not doubt this, but still answered truthfully."
It's really a good emperor, we haven't paid much business tax, but we will still save us!
Giving us money free of interest is much better than those big loan sharks who want to bankrupt their families!

”The other Du family employees sighed.However, the palace steward of the Funing Marquis Mansion sank his face, because of the usury that these hired workers said was bankrupt, they also lent money to the Funing Marquis Mansion, and even forcibly lent money, and occasionally killed people.Of course, the most angry thing about the palace steward was that the newly opened Daming Bank of the imperial court obviously prevented their Hou Mansion from wantonly merging shop properties and lending usury when the rebellion had just ended the depression of all industries, and also stopped the Hou Mansion's behavior of expanding the number of domestic slaves, and also gave him, the steward, no chance to profit from it."
Du Lao Liu, do you think that if you borrow silver from some Daming bank, the Hou Mansion will not be able to get your shop?!
You have to sell it this time, and you have to sell it if you don't sell it!
”The palace steward launched a ruthless attack and threatened Dao."
Damn, you have to sell anything, you have to sell it if you don't sell it, I don't know, you still think that you are the fucking master here, and the person who is the Lao Tzu patrol camp does not exist!"
Zhou Yuji, who happened to come to patrol here with the officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion, asked loudly as soon as he came.The palace steward couldn't help but shut up when he saw that the people from the patrol battalion were coming over, he knew that the people in the patrol camp were all the emperor's people, not local soldiers, so they were not so easy to bully, and their officers could go to the emperor at any time to complain, so he also turned around and left, and he didn't want to get into trouble for his own marquis."
Stop!
Did Lao Tzu let you go, you Hou Ye didn't discipline you well, Lao Tzu came to discipline you!
Disturbing the peace, bullying others, and committing the crime of extortion promulgated by His Majesty!
Take this guy down and get it into the class!
”Zhou Yuji shouted at this time.The officers and men of the patrol battalion immediately detained the palace steward and took them away.Du Shouchang breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this, and then laughed, feeling very happy, because he didn't expect that one day, the people in the government would no longer be afraid of local wealthy families like Funinghou, who would be able to vent their anger for ordinary merchants and ordinary people.The Du family's hired workers and the merchants who gathered here also looked at the officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion who were holding the palace steward and other slaves of the Funing Marquis Mansion with great relief and joy."
It's better to be officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion!""
Yes, unlike other officers and soldiers, like those wealthy domestic slaves, they are also the dogs of these wealthy families, who only know how to bully us ordinary soldiers!""
That's natural, I heard that the officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion are the emperor's Yulin Guard, who is both loyal and loves the people, and is naturally different from other officers and soldiers!
Don't rob people's houses, and give money for meals!
”The Du family's employees and merchants began to talk about this.Then, the merchants who came here were busy asking Du Shouchang about Daming Bank."
Brother Du, you really got a loan of five hundred silver dollars from Daming Bank, and it is really interest-free?"
Cao Agui, who was in the paint shop, asked Du Shouchang first at this time.Du Shouchang opened his bag containing silver coins, took out the deed, and showed off: "Look at it, especially this deed, it is stamped with the big seal of Li Butang, the right attendant of the Ministry of Industry!"
Can it be faked?!
There is really no interest below 1,000, and only one cent is charged for more than 1,000!
”"I heard about it, but I didn't dare to believe it, this time I really believed it, I have to hurry up and take out a loan, and I don't ask my brother-in-law to borrow money from the Zhenyuan Marquis Mansion!""
I'll go too!
What kind of river am I jumping into now, hurry up and lend the silver, and make the transaction bigger is serious!
”"It's better to be the emperor!
Before, those old ministers said that the emperor was cruel or something, but now we have difficulties, the old ministers changed the law to raise the interest, and asked us to kneel and beg him to borrow, but now the emperor directly gave us interest-free and low-interest loans, I am really confused, I listened to the nonsense of those old ministers, and I also thought that the emperor was fooling people, and he would not be so benevolent, and almost missed the emperor's grace!
”......
"This, this, don't talk about the reward, and now it's a Daming Bank, robbing us of our usury business, and preventing us from buying the shop industry!"
The patrol battalion will arrest the people of Benhou as soon as they say it, and those traitorous ministers around His Majesty are really hateful!
”Zhu Youxiao set up Daming Bank to lend low-interest and interest-free loans, which can be regarded as infringing on the interests of local wealthy families, and Zhu Guobi, the Marquis of Funing, complained to his customers quite angrily at this time.Travel through the Ming Dynasty as a tyrant
