Chapter 205 The Old Thirteen Suddenly Falls Out of Favor

In the bank or money bank of this era, when customers deposit money, not only do they have no interest income, but they also have to pay handling fees.

Yuzhu's Cosmos Bank did not open with much fanfare.

However, it was just a few months, not counting the 300 million taels of silver that Li Si'er dropped in, there was already 500 million taels of silver in deposit.

This is the reserve fund of 800 million taels.

A ticket number with such a strong strength must be the number one in the Qing Dynasty.

The big treasurer of the universe bank is none other than Zhen's of the Changlong bank.

Yuzhu asked Mrs. Zhen to meet at the hot spring villa, but Mrs. Zhen sent him 50 taels of silver for one purpose: please let him go!
With Zhen's self-improvement, Yuzhu naturally felt pity for her, not only confiscated her money, but hired her as the big shopkeeper of the universe bank.

As for the entire Zhen family, Yu Zhu also knew that it was a purely false accusation, so he let the whole Zhen family go.

With this source of heaven's grace, the Zhen family willingly sacrificed her life for Yuzhu.

The general ticket number of this era is the absolute vampire.

Borrowing 1 taels of silver, the annual interest rate is at least [-]%, or compound interest.

What kind of huge profits is this?
Cosmos Bank Bank Loans must have collateral.There is only one kind of collateral, and that is fertile land in the suburbs of Beijing.

In this era when there is no stock market, no futures, and no national debt, the only pleasure for big businessmen after making money is to buy shops and fertile land.

To put it bluntly, the fertile land near the capital is definitely the best asset.As long as you are willing to sell, there will definitely be buyers.

I'm afraid you don't want to sell the fertile land in the suburbs of Beijing!

This is very similar to the detached houses in the old concession in the first ring of the magic city. As long as they are willing to make a move, someone will spend a lot of money to take over.

Because this is an absolutely scarce resource.If you sell one, you will lose one!
Now that the Cosmos Bank has been opened, Huitong Tianxia must be the goal in the future.

However, at this stage, due to the shortage of capable shopkeepers and fellows, Huitong Yangzhou, Guangzhou, Jiangning and other few big cities where rich merchants gather are more suitable targets.

The interest rate of the loan is tentatively set at [-]% per year if there is collateral, but there is no rolling interest.

Yuzhu didn't dare to set it too low, it would be too hated, and sooner or later something big would happen.

As we all know, no matter what era it is in, any class that dares to lend usury is the top elite class that ordinary people can never afford to provoke.

Not to mention anything else, the housekeeper of the fourth son, taking advantage of the opportunity of usury, embezzled hundreds of thousands of acres of high-quality fertile land in the suburbs of Beijing.

If Yuzhu set the loan interest too low, all the princes and brothers including the fourth child and the rich and powerful in Manchuria would become Yuzhu's mortal enemies.

In such a dangerous situation, a wise man would do nothing!
Don't engage in recurring profits, to put it bluntly, this alone has made the Universe Xing the favor of all major businessmen.

The gentlemen in history also opened their ticket numbers.As long as He Zhongtang survives and has his personal endorsement, the bank will always make a lot of money.

A ticket number or a bank naturally needs the endorsement of the powerful in order to win the trust of others.

When Zuogong Jigao was alive, no one dared to run on Hu Xueyan's "Fukang" bank.

When Li Hefei didn't die, Sheng Xuanhuai could have unlimited glory.

In the same way, as long as Tong's family and Yu Zhu's father and son don't fall, no one will dare to touch Universe Xing and Zhen's except for the old emperor!
The old emperor suddenly agreed to lend Lei's family class to make household items for Cao's family.

While Cao Yin was still guessing wildly in surprise, Da Cao Jiashi already understood.This could only be the emperor's favor for Yuzhu's face.

The Da Cao Jia family really lacked everything from silver, jewelry, jewelry and clothing materials, except for carpenters for the imperial family.

In this cannibalistic society, there are many things that no amount of money can buy.

On the day of Dacao Jia's big wedding, Yuzhu, as a relative of the woman, came to the Cao's old house in Shaojiu Hutong early.

When the chief housekeeper Lai Da saw Yuzhu again, his waist was even lower.

Because the sister of the first relative is about to get married, Cao Yong has already rushed to the capital from Jiangning.

"Little brother Cao Yong pays homage to brother-in-law." Cao Yong greeted Yu Zhu at the gate all the time.

Yuzhu raised his hand to support Cao Yong, and said with a smile: "Why do you need to be so polite between you and my brother?"

Who ever thought, Cao Yong said very honestly: "Elder sister has ordered, I ordered my brother-in-law to see you, and I must thank her well."

Yuzhu waved his hand and said: "It's a trivial matter, it's nothing to worry about."

Cao Yong led Yuzhu into the West Flower Hall, and accompanied him while having tea and chatting.

After a while, the old thirteen came.

The old thirteen is righteous. When he was in Jiangning, he hit it off with Cao Yong at first sight.Although the deeper friendship was cut off by Yuzhu halfway, it is much weaker than in history, but it makes sense.

"Oh, I'm a poor elder brother, so I can only give 50 taels." As soon as the old thirteen saw Cao Yong, he blamed himself and apologized.

Yuzhu couldn't help but smile slightly. When he got married, the old thirteen gave him 200 taels of silver.

On the day of Mrs. Cao Jia's wedding, it was already a great honor for the old thirteen to come over in person.

Cao Yin has been in the south of the Yangtze River and has received Kangxi many times.The servants of Cao's family have already had experience in hosting grand banquets, so they don't need Yu Zhu's help.

Recently, Yuzhu has been so busy that he hasn't seen Lao Shisan for some time.

These two guys got together and had a lot to say.Cao Yong, who couldn't get in the conversation, was put aside.

"I said brother, when I get out of the palace, let's have a good meal." The old thirteen looked forward to a better life in the future.

Yuzhu secretly sighed, when Kangxi was alive, it was impossible for the old thirteen to be entrusted.

However, it is naturally impossible for Yuzhu to take the initiative to break the dream of the old thirteen, and said with a smile: "That's natural. Elder brother who lives in the palace, how can he be as free as in his own mansion?"

Yuzhu's words just scratched Old Shisan's itch, and he sighed, "It depends on when Ama Khan will be merciful."

In this era, the elder brother of the prince, as long as he is entrusted out of the palace, the treatment he enjoys is different.

At least 10 taels of silver for the opening of the mansion, a large area of ​​Huangzhuang, as well as Baoyi and Aha of the Underwear Mansion, and eunuchs to serve.

Speaking of which, the old thirteen is really pitiful.After he left the palace, even if he drank too much, he could only stay in the fourth's Baylor mansion.

In the past, whether it was reading history books or watching TV dramas, Yuzhu couldn't figure it out, but the old Shisan suddenly changed from being extremely favored to being left out in the cold today.

Now, with more experience of playing chess with Kangxi every day, Yu Zhu has a deeper understanding of Kangxi's temper.

During the period when Concubine Min was favored, the old Shisan, who had never suffered any setbacks, was far from mature.

I'm afraid that the old thirteen revealed the same thoughts as the old eight at that time, right?

In Kangxi's later years, two major things were most taboo: the prince wanted to engage in Xuanwumen, and the eighth wanted to learn from Tang Suzong.

However, before Concubine Min passed away, Kang Mazi still had more trust than suspicion for Prince Yinreng.

If, because of his young age, the old thirteen exposed his shady thoughts, he would inevitably be rejected by Kangxi.

Other than that, Yuzhu couldn't find the reason why the old Shisan suddenly fell out of favor.

In the 37th year of Kangxi, when the emperor enshrined the princes, the old thirteen didn't get anything, which is understandable.After all, he is still young, and the ninth, tenth and fourteenth are not sealed yet.

However, in the 48th year of Kangxi, when the prince was abolished and reinstated, when the old emperor granted the princes for the second time, the idiot tenth actually became the king of the county, and even the ninth, twelve and fourteenth were also shellfish.

However, the old thirteen is still a short brother, which is extremely abnormal.

In the TV series "Yongzheng Dynasty", the story is that the old thirteen was imprisoned for ten years.

In fact, the old thirteen was not imprisoned for so long, and was released soon.

However, since then, no matter whether it is the Records of the Holy Patriarch or the Notes on Daily Life, the old thirteen seems to have evaporated from the world, and there is no news about him anymore.

This situation lasted until the night of Changchun Garden, when Kangxi died.

It's too early for the night of Changchun Garden.

The boss who has no brains, the second who is bound to be abolished, and the eighth who exposed his ambition too early, these three are definitely out.

The third child, the fourth child, the fifth child, the seventh child, the twelfth child, and the thirteenth child, who is the most worthy of a king, Yuzhu has absolutely no need to make a decision immediately.

Yuzhu and Lao Shisan chatted too speculatively, and each drank tea to moisten their throats.

Cao Yong hesitated for a long time, then suddenly asked Yuzhu: "Brother-in-law, fifth younger brother Cao Fu asked me to ask you, Qingwen..."

Yuzhu secretly laughed, that kid Cao Fu is really a passionate seed.

"Tell him that Qingwen is doing well now. She has read a lot of books with the school teacher, and she is also planning to read the account book." Yu Zhu didn't bother to explain too much.

After all, after the Cao family gave Qingwen to Yuzhu, they shouldn't ask Qingwen about anything.

In other words, Qingwen was already Tong's maidservant, and Yuzhu had the full power to take over the house, take a concubine, or let her marry.

At this time, if Cao Fu asked Qingwen again, it was already a violation of the rules.

Cao Yong is Yuzhu's serious wife and younger brother, so Yuzhu is naturally hard to say anything.

The old thirteen was not pleasing to the eye. In front of Yuzhu, he scolded Cao Yong: "You are not young anymore. Cao Fu is ignorant, so you can be so ignorant? How can you ask your brother-in-law in person? Women's reasoning?"

Cao Yong also realized that something was wrong, and immediately flushed with embarrassment, and quickly got up to accompany Yuzhu, right?

"Brother-in-law, it's true that my younger brother is reckless, and I didn't think carefully, so please forgive me." Cao Yong is also straightforward, he is a good boy who knows his mistakes and corrects them.

Cao Yong asked Qingwen about her recent situation, but Yuzhu didn't really care, so she took his arm and sat side by side.

"Have you finished your work as a guard?" Yuzhu didn't want Cao Yong to be too embarrassed, so he changed the subject on his own initiative.
