Daming: The most ruthless tyrant in history

Chapter 687 Big Shots, Little Shots (1)

A snowstorm hit quietly, and the capital city was covered in thick silver. The weather became colder, but it could not stop the arrival of the New Year atmosphere.

"It's almost New Year's Day, and there are so many people on the street. Fortunately, I came out early, otherwise I would be stuck in traffic."

"Yes, there are still more than ten days to the Chinese New Year, and many people are out buying New Year goods. But think about it, after a year of hard work and anticipation, what we are waiting for is the New Year atmosphere."

"Come to think of it, the reason why the prince asked me to come here this time is to clarify the year-end dividend. Huahui Bank has made rapid progress this year."

"Haha... apart from this matter, what else can we do? When this year is over, our Huahui Bank must make careful plans. No matter what, we must open more branches in Henan and Huguang."

"Not only that, we still have to seize the opportunity to implement the strategy of going south along the canal. If the cross-regional exchange of our Huahui Silver Bank can take root in the southeastern provinces, the money we earn will be..."

In the main hall of Wang Sheng's mansion, a crowd of people gathered, each with a smile on their face. They were so immersed in the festive atmosphere of the New Year that they did not notice anything unusual, not even the depressing atmosphere that enveloped Wang Sheng's mansion.

the reason is simple.

The annual dividend distribution is about to begin.

This was the rule set by Wang Sheng when Huahui Bank was being established. The selected group of people who hold silver and purchase shares cannot interfere with the overall development of the bank. No one has the right to interfere in matters outside the scope of their authority. Whoever dares to violate these rules and damage the interests of the bank and the interests of the shareholding group will not only have their silver shares withdrawn, but will also have to pay a due price!
Rules are rules, without rules there can be no order!

The original intention of making rules is to support the operation of a certain matter. If everyone does not follow the rules, then there is no point in doing anything.

"It's quite lively."

The people gathered in the hall were chatting with each other. Wang Sheng appeared at the door of the hall and with just one sentence, everyone who was sitting there stood up.

"Meet the uncle!"

"Meet the King's uncle!"

Looking at the people coming towards him, Wang Sheng had a blank expression on his face. He ignored Qin Qingde, Zhang Guangyi, Li Zhizhong and the others and walked into the hall with his hands behind his back.

Ok?
Qin Qingde, Zhang Guangyi and others were very smart. When they saw Wang Sheng's behavior, they immediately realized that something was wrong. After looking at each other, they turned away with different thoughts.

At this time, some people belatedly recalled the cautious attitude shown by the doorman and servants of the prince's mansion when they arrived.

"There are only about ten days left until the Chinese New Year, right?"

Under everyone's gaze, Wang Sheng lifted his robe and sat down. "It's almost the New Year, and it's time to distribute the money. Otherwise, this year will be difficult. Everyone, am I right?"

"Uncle..."

After hearing this, Qin Qingde and the others blurted out subconsciously.

"I called you all here today because I have something to tell you. This year's dividends will be postponed."

Wang Sheng interrupted them with his hand, facing everyone's gaze, and said indifferently: "As for when, it will be decided after I finish the task at hand. If anyone has any objections, they can raise them now."

The atmosphere in the hall changed immediately.

put off?

Why! !
Since their own interests were involved, Qin Qingde, Zhang Guangyi and others reacted very genuinely. They looked at Wang Sheng with astonishment. None of them had expected it to be like this.

At the beginning, they took out 8 million taels and subscribed to 20% of the silver shares of Huahui Silver Bank. That was their entire fortune.

Others may not know how much pressure they have endured and how much they have shouldered in the past, but Wang Sheng should know it clearly!

Year-end dividends were only distributed once last year.

The dividend should have been distributed this year, but it has to be postponed.

What a thing!
"Uncle, has something happened?" Although he was dissatisfied in his heart, Qin Qingde sensed something was wrong. After looking around, he bowed his head slightly to Wang Sheng and said, "The year-end dividend was decided before. If you want to postpone it, there must be a reason, right?"

"Yes, uncle."

Zhang Guangyi followed closely and said, "Huahui Bank has made great achievements this year. Even if we have no credit, we have worked hard. We have traveled around to set up branches, selected and trained talents, and we have made great efforts in all these."

"Uncle..."

"Uncle..."

The other people standing in the hall started to speak one by one. They could not accept such a thing. After all, the dividends were just numbers in the public account. Only when they really got it in their hands, it would be real wealth.

I've been waiting for a year for this moment.

With this dividend, they can do what they want. After all, they also need to manage their family assets well, whether it is purchasing bonds, purchasing land, or investing in workshops... These can all increase the part they deserve.

"I'm sure you're all familiar with this, right?"

In this situation, Wang Sheng took out a silver dollar from his pocket and said to everyone while facing their gazes.

"New currency."

A voice appeared among the crowd.

“Yes, it’s the new currency, but it’s fake!”

After taking a look at the man, Wang Sheng slammed the silver dollar on the table beside him and said sternly, "There are a lot of counterfeit coins now. They were collected from the branches of Huahui Silver Bank and exchanged. And this matter is not only me, but also none of you have noticed it!!"

A word stirred up a thousand waves.

Qin Qingde, Zhang Guangyi and others were all shocked when they heard this. Wang Sheng's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting their hearts hard.

"This is impossible!"

"how come!?"

"Counterfeit money?!"

The hall became noisy.

Wang Sheng did not pay much attention to the performance of the people in front of him, but at this moment he was thinking of one thing in his heart, His Majesty is right, it is time to stop the expansion of Huahui Bank. The big thieves are gone, but the small thieves have increased. This matter should arouse our vigilance!
Now that it has happened, let's take this opportunity to carefully identify it. I want to see whether these people who hold shares are really unaware or just pretending to be unaware!
Wang Sheng just wanted to alert the enemy.

Of course, the premise is that there are indeed snakes among the senior executives of Huahui Bank, and they are snakes colluding with both insiders and outsiders!
"I have said before that the rules of Huahui Bank are rules. Now that they have been set, even I must follow them." In this situation, Wang Sheng slowly stood up and said in a cold tone.

"If I don't comply, and anyone wants to withdraw their shares, I will not stop them. I will even pay double the price to buy them back. Even if the lawsuit goes to Shuntian Prefecture, you are still right because we have signed the contract."

"So you all have the right to know. I have talked about this matter today, which is to follow the rules. This matter has come out of my mouth and entered your ears, but if you dare to let me know, or anyone among you knows it, who dares to spread this matter and endanger the stability of our Huahui Bank, then you are not only against me, but also against everyone!"

Qin Qingde, Zhang Guangyi and others had complicated expressions.

"Uncle, what are you going to do about this?" After an unknown amount of time, Qin Qingde said, "It may not be easy to find out the truth about this matter."

"That's someone's business."

Wang Sheng's eyes were sharp as he said, "One month. Regardless of whether the matter is investigated or not, the year-end dividend distribution will be done. When the time comes, each family will bring their accountant and we will divide the dividends accordingly."

"In addition to this matter, there is another matter. Starting from next year, Huahui Bank will suspend its expansion. When it will resume depends on this big loophole. How can Huahui Bank formulate new regulations to block it? If it can't block it and can't change it, then no one can think about continuing to expand in the future!"

Having said this, Wang Sheng flicked his sleeves, walked out of the hall with his head held high, leaving behind Qin Qingde, Zhang Guangyi and the others who looked surprised and suspicious. Ripples began to form at this moment.
