Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 115 The Big Run

"Do you know? The officials of Bank of Kyushu embezzled tens of thousands of taels of silver and went to Nanyang. Now the military leader is preparing to send a fleet to Nanyang to capture him! If we don't go to Bank of Kyushu to get back the deposit, then our The money will never come back!"

"Is it true? Those officials dare to corrupt the money we put in the bank?"

"You don't know the news from the inside! Our military leader didn't say anything, but which of his officials are not greedy, and secretly did a lot of immoral things behind the military leader's back."

"If Kyushu Bank really stole our silver taels, then I have to go to Kyushu Bank to get back the money I put there. That's my salary for several months."

"Everyone go to Kyushu Bank to get back the savings, if you don't hurry up, you will lose all your money!"

No one knows which alley in Jinzhou City the rumor originated from.

At the beginning, the rumor was only circulated among a small group of people, but later it spread to ten, ten to hundreds, all over Jinzhou City, and even spread to other cities.Moreover, these rumors became more and more evil. First, the officials of Kyushu Bank stole tens of thousands of taels of silver from the bank.In short, all the rumors are encouraging people to go to Kyushu Bank to withdraw their deposits!
"Let us in, we are depositors, there is no reason for Kyushu Bank to block us out!"

"They must be guilty of not withdrawing money for us. Everyone squeeze in quickly. If it is too late, there will be no money in the bank!"

Outside the headquarters of the Bank of Kyushu, a group of raging people surrounded the cobblestone street. They held the certificates of deposits in the Bank of Kyushu in their hands, and they all wanted to get the "few" in the Bank of Kyushu earlier than others. deposit.

"Everyone, calm down. It's not that we don't want you to come in. It's just that there are too many people and we can't handle it. Please stay calm!" The staff of Kyushu Bank saw thousands of people crowding outside, and their heads were full. Khan said.

"Hurry up and send someone to notify the military leader and explain the situation here." The person in charge of Kyushu Bank anxiously ordered his subordinates.

"But my lord, the gates are blocked by ordinary people, we can't get out at all..."

The huge change in Jinzhou City immediately aroused the vigilance of the Jinzhou City patrol team.

"Get up quickly, something happened to the Kyushu Bank in the west of the city!"

In the inspection team's house, the chief inspector tapped the cymbals with a long knife to wake up the inspectors who were taking their lunch break.These team members are divided into several shifts, some are night shifts, some are afternoon shifts, and some are morning shifts.Now that the matter was urgent, almost all the inspectors were alarmed, and under the leadership of the chief inspector, they went to the street where the Bank of Kyushu was located to maintain law and order.

"Who is gathering crowds here to make trouble? You have disturbed the order here, leave quickly!" The inspector came with hundreds of inspectors and drove the crowd away with long sticks.

"Your uncle, we are here to withdraw our deposits, what qualifications do you have to drive us away?!"

"That's right, the military master said that we can come to withdraw our deposit at any time, what's wrong with you, are you going to fight?"

The people in southern Liaoning are tough, and when they saw the long sticks of the inspection team, they became even more violent when they were full of blood.Thousands of ordinary people pushed and shoved together with the inspection team.Previously, Chu Yun had a strict order that the patrol team was not allowed to enforce the law and hurt people, so these patrol team members could not hurt the people, so the two sides just got together.

The panic of the masses spread around Jinzhou City as the center, and similar rumors appeared one after another in other cities.

The Kyushu Bank in Fuzhou City was also occupied by panicked people. These people asked the Kyushu Bank to pay back the money one after another, and almost had a fight with the inspection team.

Chu Yun, who was setting up the battle in Fuzhou City, learned of the great changes in the cities, and his heart was racing. Isn't this situation a bank run in later generations? !

"My lord, Fuzhou, Dalian Port, and Jinzhou are urgent! Especially Jinzhou City, which is the headquarters of Kyushu Bank, has been most affected. This turmoil has also seriously affected production and transportation. As far as we are concerned in Gaizhou, Workers at the Tieshan Mine even missed work and returned to the city to participate in the turmoil, and the work of the mine was completely delayed." Chen Ting handed over letters of appeal for help from various places to Chu Yun in great anxiety.

In the end who made this run turmoil?Chu Yun received the requests for help from all over the place, and there was nothing more than news that the Kyushu Bank was blocked and nearby streets were paralyzed, which was similar to Gaizhou City.

No matter who it is, this run-on incident really disgusted Chu Yun. Just when the main force of the army was about to go all out for the northern expedition, the rear suddenly caught fire, and it swept across the economy, production, people's livelihood and other fields, almost crippling half of the army. situation.If this matter is not dealt with properly, let alone the Northern Expedition, it may be a waste of momentum to develop properly.

"Troops from all over the country are still coming to the front line of Gaizhou, and the troops preparing for the Northern Expedition have been deployed in Gaizhou to prevent the Houjin troops from taking the opportunity to go south." Chu Yun, who was overwhelmed, could only switch from offense to defense first, and stabilize the situation first. Besides.

"Do we need to send troops to the cities to disperse the people? If we let them go down, maybe they will burn and loot the bank in a day or two." Chen Ting asked.

"When necessary, the army needs to intervene, but as a last resort, we must not easily conflict with the people." Chu Yun tried his best to think about the solution for later generations, "You let the civil officials in each city go to persuade the people to leave under the escort of the inspection team. , and tell them that our bank has no problems, all this is a conspiracy of the gold man!"

At this time, Chu Yun didn't know whether the rumors came from the Jinren's conspiracy or some ordinary people became tigers, but he knew that someone needs to take the blame at this time, and that person can only be the Jinren!
"By the way, you will have people take out all the silver taels in the warehouses of each city, put them on a big carriage and pull them into the bank, and then smuggle them out, and then pull them in..." Chu Yun said again, "They We give them as much as they want.”

"Wonderful, isn't this Dong Zhuo's scheme? No, no, I didn't mean to compare the adult to Dong Zhuo..." Chen Ting said hastily.

At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when Dong Zhuo captured Luoyang, there were not many soldiers and horses, so he let his same troops enter the city repeatedly with great fanfare, giving the people in the city the illusion that he had a lot of troops.

"In the final analysis, this turmoil is related to the confidence of the people. As long as the confidence of the people is restored, we will be able to resolve this turmoil." Chu Yun rubbed his temples, "But it is not enough, we still need to find a few people Take the blame to frighten the common people..."

When Chu Yun was in distress, the guards outside the house came to report: "My lord, Captain Aila has captured some golden spies and is waiting outside."
