In the Southern Song Dynasty, I competed with Mongolia for the world

Chapter 611 Zhao is a talented person

Zhao Yurui was relatively successful this time. Before leaving, she looked at Qin Lianghua and told him to have a good rest at home and go back to work after he had recovered, and not to rush.

His serious look made Qin Zhongan want to laugh but couldn't.

After leaving the Qin family, Zhao Yurui went straight to Sihai Bank.

When I entered the bank, I found that its layout was similar to that of banks in later generations. The difference was that it was noon now, when banks in later generations were generally closed, but Da Yuan was still open.

However, because it was lunch time, there were relatively few customers.

There are no bank cards now, everyone uses passbooks.

Zhao Yurui looked around and saw that there were five windows at the scene.

He nodded to Chang Yuchun and others, and each of them found a window and sat down.

Then he took out the passbook he had brought and threw it in.

"Hello, may I ask what business you are doing?" the customer service representative asked politely.

"Save money." Zhao, Rui and the other three said at the same time.

"Okay." The other party looked at Zhao Yurui and the other three, all of whom were wearing Jinyiwei uniforms, and felt a little puzzled.

"How much money do you want to deposit?"

At this time, Zhao Yurui and others took out a large stack of banknotes from their pockets.

The customer service was shocked at first glance, and then speechless after another look.

It’s all one piece.

The one-yuan note is now the smallest in size.

Smaller ones are replaced with copper coins.

Zhao Yurui took out a one-yuan bill from a stack and slapped it forward: "Please save one for me."

“…” The customer service was stunned.

But the other person was wearing Jinyiwei clothes, so she didn't say anything, so she had to ask again: "Only one piece?"

"Yes, save one."

The customer had no choice but to start the formalities.

There were no computers at that time, so a lot of work had to be written by hand or typed, which was quite slow.

Beep, beep, beep, the customer service staff spoke for a while and it took about ten minutes to get it done.

"Hello, this is your passbook, please keep it--" He just handed over the passbook.

"Pah!" Zhao Yurui threw over another one-dollar bill.

"Save me another one."

The customer service's face changed.

The customer service manager not far away had also been keeping an eye on the four Jinyiwei and now finally realized that they were here to cause trouble.

How long will Zhao Yurui save money bit by bit like this? Will the bank still be open?

The manager was a middle-aged man named Qian. After looking around, he identified Zhao and Rui as the leaders.

Because when other people deposit money, they are used to looking at Zhao Yurui, and other people are a little hesitant, but Zhao Yurui does it most naturally.

He quickly came behind Zhao Yurui and whispered, "Sir, can you come to the VIP room and talk for a few words?"

"Is your boss here?"

"I can make the decision on anything." Manager Qian whispered.

"Okay." Zhao Yurui stood up and said to Chang Yuchun and the others, "You keep depositing. I won't stop you until they close down."

"Yes." The three responded loudly.

Manager Qian had a gloomy face and invited Zhao Yurui to the VIP room.

Then he quickly poured a cup of tea and asked cautiously, "Have we offended your Xiaoqi Office?"
Also, are you from the dock?
The terminal owes us more than one million.

"I'm Zhao Yurui, the new flag officer of the Wharf Office." Zhao Yurui said in a deep voice, "I just got to work today and learned that our office owes Sihai Bank more than one million."

Manager Qian smiled at this time and asked, "Do you want to default on your debt?"
"Our bank has never urged your office. We will pay you back whenever we have money." Manager Qian said with a smile.

"No, I don't like to owe others money. I can't sleep well at night if I owe others so much money."

"What does Zhao Xiaoqi mean?" Manager Qian's face darkened. Does he not want to return it?
"I want to pay back the money as soon as possible." Zhao Yurui said this, took out the documents and threw them on the table.

Manager Qian picked it up and took a look at it, his expression changed slightly.

The charge is based on area. Sihai Bank has five floors and is the tallest building on this side of the dock. Each floor has more than 200 square meters, for a total of more than 1,000 square meters.

At ten yuan per square meter per month, they have to pay more than ten thousand yuan per month.

This is almost as much as their rent.

He hesitated for a moment, then said slowly, "We used to give Zhou Guomin one thousand yuan a month. If Zhao Xiaoqi is willing, we can add five hundred."

"That's a bribe." Zhao Yurui said calmly, "Zhou Guomin is old and only wants to make money. I'm still young and want to climb up."

Manager Qian immediately said, "Our President Qi and the captain of Qingyuan Prefecture, Xu Zheng, were classmates in middle school."

Qingyuan Prefecture is in charge of Dinghai County. Qian Jingxian is very smart and immediately grasped the key point. It turns out that you want to be promoted. This is easy to do. No matter whether it works or not, you must stabilize Zhao and Rui first.

Zhao Yurui was unmoved: "We will charge all the shops at the dock according to the new standards."

"Sihai Bank cannot be treated as an exception."

Manager Qian looked a little unhappy. He said kindly, "Zhao Xiaoqi, if you do this, you will probably offend a lot of people."

"This is not your consideration. Just tell me whether Sihai Bank will give you the money or not."

"What if we don't give it to you?" Manager Qian said coldly.

"We have a lot of temporary workers in our institute and they have nothing to do. I asked them to send five people every day to take turns depositing and withdrawing money here, one yuan at a time, until they pay you." Zhao Yurui said.

"You——" Manager Qian was angry and anxious: "You are just lazy."

"Pay back the money." He suddenly shouted. Xiaoqi owed them more than one million.

"We will pay you back after we collect the money." Zhao Yurui said, "Manager Qian doesn't want us to pay back the money? If you can collect the more than one million yuan owed, it will be a great achievement for the bank."

“…” Manager Qian actually thought it made sense.

"Once we have collected enough money, we will pay it back to the bank immediately. If you don't take the lead in paying, how can I collect money from others?"

Manager Qian took a few steps left and right, then hesitated for a moment and said, "Wait a moment."

He turned around, went to another room and made a phone call.

"Mr. Qi, this is what happened." He reported the matter to Mr. Qi from the bank.

The other party was silent for a moment, then slowly asked, "Can he guarantee to pay back the money?"

"You ask him to write a letter of guarantee to pay back the money, and we will pay."

"Really? Such a huge sum of money?" Manager Qian couldn't believe it.

Mr. Qi said: "He didn't embezzle money like Zhou Guomin did, which proves that he really wants to climb up the career ladder."

"For some people, you can't block their path to wealth, and for some people, you can't block their path to promotion."

"If he really dares to bring five people to block our bank every day, pay up."

"Yes, Mr. Qi."

Mr. Qi hung up the phone and immediately made another call.

Opposite him was his classmate and good friend, Xu Zheng, the captain of the Jinyiwei Division of Qingyuan Prefecture.

"Hey, Lao Qi, why did you suddenly think of me? Are you here in Qingyuan Mansion?"

"Xu Zheng, your Jinyiwei is now in a big way. Take the money from me--" He told the story of Zhao Yurui. Xu Zheng on the other side was also stunned, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

After listening, he smiled bitterly: "What do you want me to do? Remove his flag? He said he was the new flag, so I'm afraid he can only be transferred."

Zhao Yurui had just been promoted to small-level positions, and Xu Zheng had no suitable reason, so it was not a good idea, so the best he could do was to transfer him away.

"I'm just complaining to you." Boss Qi said with a smile, "It turns out there are capable people among the Jinyiwei. I want to see if he can collect all the money on the dock."

Xu Zheng's heart moved. If Zhao Yurui could collect all the money, it would be a big deal.

He said, "Okay, I'll come and take a look. If he can put it away, then forget it. If he can't, don't worry, I'll give you an explanation."

Zhao Yurui outside obviously didn't know that President Qi and Captain Xu had already decided his future fate in private.

Soon Manager Qian came back and promised him to pay the money.

But when asked to write a letter of guarantee to repay the debt, Zhao Yurui did not hesitate and agreed immediately.

This way both parties are happy.

Before leaving, Zhao Yurui suddenly said, "I just came in and found that your bank is quite messy. If there is no one in line, you can sit down at any window."

Manager Qian immediately said, "There aren't many people at noon, but there are usually a lot of people, so we have guides."

“The guidance will also be chaotic, and some people will cut in line.”

Manager Qian frowned. That was indeed the case. People cut in line every day.

"Assign someone to the door with a small piece of paper with the number written on it."

"The first person to come in is written as 1, the second person to come in is written as 2, and then the business is processed in the order of the numbers. If there are any missing numbers, they will be re-arranged."

"Huh." Manager Qian's eyes lit up. Why didn't he think of this before?
Zhao Yurui walked away.

The more Manager Qian thought about it, the more excited he became, so he quickly called again and proposed it to General Manager Qi.

Mr. Qi was stunned for a moment, then asked, "What did you just think of?"

"Uh, yes - I just thought of it." Manager Qian stuttered.

President Qi was silent for a moment: "Did the man surnamed Zhao say that?"

"Mr. Qi is wise. I can't hide it from you." Manager Qian had to admit it.

After hanging up the phone, Mr. Qi looked at a painting on the wall, thoughtfully thinking that the man named Zhao was a talented person.

After coming out of the bank, Zhao Yurui immediately led people to Hutchison Group.

Hutchison’s office building is not small either, with three floors, each floor is over 100 square meters, totaling about 500 square meters.

Their office building is right next to the dock, and since their main business is shipping, their large ships are often docked at the seaside.

Zhao Yurui came to the dock first and looked at the ships parked on the sea. After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Shicheng also arrived.

"Well, the ships with Hutchison written on them are all theirs." Zhu Yuanzhang pointed to the sea and said, "And they are all big ships."

"A trip to Japan and Korea would cost at least tens of thousands."

"If you go to Southeast Asia, it will cost hundreds of thousands of yuan."

"It's very profitable." Zhao Yurui said with a smile.

“Of course, Hutchison is one of the top three shipping groups in the country. We often see their ships when we unload cargo.”

Zhao Yurui nodded, and then went to the Hutchison office building with Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Shicheng.

The staff of Hutchison were also surprised to see the Royal Guards coming to their house. After asking, they were told that the boss was not at home, but the general manager was.

Zhao Yurui quickly came to the third floor and saw General Manager Wang.

Wang Li looks to be about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, two years older than Zhao Yurui. She has fair skin, a slim figure, and is very beautiful.

The key is that she was wearing a pink miniskirt.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Zhang Shicheng's eyes lit up when they saw this.

In the Yuan Dynasty, clothes such as miniskirts that were introduced from Japan were called "Oriental Clothes". The older generation regarded them as a scourge and a corruption of customs.

But it is still very popular among the younger generation.

As soon as Zhao Yurui came in, he saw two long white legs crossed on the sofa.

Wang Li looked up at them, but didn't stand up. She waved calmly, "Zhao Xiaoqi, right? Sit down and make some tea."

Zhao Yurui was sitting opposite her, but she didn't care. She kept her legs crossed and swayed slightly, looking very charming.

Lao Zhu and Lao Zhang stood behind Zhao Yurui. They looked at each other and thought at the same time, "Put it down, put it down, put it down," waiting for Wang Li to put her legs down.

If Zhao Yurui knew that these two old guys were so despicable, they would definitely give them a big slap in the face.

"Is there anything I can do for you, Zhao Xiaoqi?" Wang Li also went straight to the point.

In her eyes, she looked down on the Jinyiwei, thinking they were just running dogs of the court who only took salaries but did nothing. There were no cases in their company, so why were you coming to their house?
Zhao Yurui thought for a moment and said slowly, "The court is currently investigating production safety, trade safety, and navigation safety."

"The main concern is that dry weather will cause fires in warehouses and ships, leading to casualties."

Wang Li was stunned when she heard this.

She couldn't help but look at Zhao Yurui. She had seen many people from the Jinyiwei, but this was the first time someone talked about official business seriously.

"Our company has always attached great importance to safety work and has corresponding safety plans--" Wang Li also found it difficult to explain and said a bunch of professional terms.

Zhao Yurui listened with a smile, and after she finished speaking, she handed over the information.

Wang Li took a look and her expression changed slightly.

The office also has to pay security and fire fees, ten yuan per square meter per month.

Their office building is over 500 square meters, so 6,000 yuan per month is not a lot.

But it went too far later.

Each ship under the company must also pay a fire safety fee of one thousand yuan per month.

Hutchison Group has nearly a thousand ships, and a small half of them may pass through Dinghai every year.

Even if it's only a small half, you still have to pay tens of thousands a month. Are you robbing me?
She did the same thing as Qin Zhongan and asked directly, Zhao Xiaoqi, do you have the charging documents?
"This is it." Zhao Yurui said.

Wang Li laughed. This was obviously something Zhao Yurui had done himself.

"What does fire fighting fee mean? If there is a fire in the future, will the Royal Guards help put it out?"

Zhao Yurui said: "Of course, after paying the fire fee, we Jinyiwei will naturally be responsible for helping to put out the fire."

Come on, Zhao Yurui also took over the functions of the fire brigade.

He certainly didn't expect that this laid the foundation for the addition of fire-fighting function to the overall function of the Jinyiwei after the Yuan Dynasty.

Having said that, Zhao Yurui pointed at Lao Zhu and Lao Zhang behind him.

"The loading and unloading of goods at Dinghai Wharf is now under the jurisdiction of Daming Trade Group. The two vice presidents of the company are here today."

"Hutchison will take the lead in paying the relevant fees. In the future, Ming Trade will give priority to helping you load and unload goods. If there is a fire, we will also help put it out immediately."

There is a hint of threat in these words. The loading and unloading of goods at the dock are under the jurisdiction of this company. If you don't pay, it will be difficult to guarantee loading and unloading in the future.

Can Hutchison hire people on its own? Of course it can, but Lao Zhu and Lao Zhang’s men can beat to death the people they hire.

Every wharf has its own rules, and every wharf in Dayuan has its own staff.

The forces that have been in power for many years are deeply rooted and it is difficult for outsiders to intervene.

This is also true in later generations.

Wang Li was silent for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, "Five hundred per ship per month, no more."

"Deal." Zhao Yurui said immediately.

Wang Li was stunned and suddenly realized that she had said too little. She regretted it very much.
