Compete for the Song Dynasty

When Rou'er heard Wang Pang's words, she immediately felt warm in her heart, and she said softly: "You are talking about marrying Miss Su? Don't worry, my lord, Rou'er was originally a girl who served the lord, and she never thought about her status! "

"Haha!" Wang Bang laughed when he heard this. Although he didn't want to talk about this matter, he still laughed when he saw Rou'er's simple and honest appearance: "I have already asked Lu Shenyan to give you the status of not being a lover. After you It's my official concubine. As for Miss Su's matter, it's not a big deal, and it's Tong Guan who I want to explain to you!"

"Tong Guan?"

"I won't take him with me when I go to Yongzhou. You have to take good care of him. Although his relationship with Yuexia is behind him, he has gotten along well with you in the past two years, not to mention that you are his official second mother. You must be strict. Take care!"

Rou'er lowered her head and answered "Yes!" Even so, Wang Pang was still a little worried. Although Tong Guan respected Rou'er, he would not listen to anyone in the whole palace except Wang Pang. That's all right, Wang Pang sighed slightly.There was a sound of hurried footsteps, and Lu Shenyan came in and said, "My lord, go to the front hall quickly, a few ministers of your court are here now. They must see you." [

Wang Pang remembered that he came back and arranged for the people in the house to do things, so he ordered others not to disturb him, and he was alone in the study to sort out these procedures. "Who is it?" While arranging his gown, he stood up and followed Lu Shenyan out.

"There are three envoys, Cai Junmo, Li Qingchen (Li Can) of the Kaifeng Prefecture, and Uncle Ouyang Yong, the censor..." Lu Shenyan reported his name.

"When did they come?"

"It's been an hour or two, and they've come one after another and haven't left yet!"

Wang Pang quickened his pace, thinking that these people had a good relationship with him on weekdays, why did they come here.He walked quickly to the hall, and said with an apology on his face, "I'm sorry, everyone has been waiting for a long time..."

Seeing Wang Pang coming in, Ouyang Xiu complained: "You haven't borrowed money yet, so you hide from others. If we borrowed money from you, it will be very difficult to find you."

When Wang Pang heard this, he smiled and said, "Hey drunkard, you are wrong. I am not borrowing money, I am asking everyone to save money. There is interest on saving money. Why not do it? Please sit down." He hurriedly asked everyone to come down, and ordered people to add tea.

Cai Xiang waited for the king to sit down and said to him: "You are really, tell us with money. We still can't trust you? This is good, let the court guarantee you, in case you don't come, who will Dare to go with the court?"

Wang Pang really didn't expect this, and he was even happier when he heard it: "Brother Junmo, if I dare to ask the court to guarantee me, I will be sure. And I am not doing this entirely for money, but because I want to do something system. Once these capital flows form a system, then the problem of the currency outflow in our Great Song Dynasty can be solved to a certain extent.”

Li Shen smiled and said nothing, Ouyang Xiu turned to Cai Xiang without asking Wang Pang and said, "Jun Mo, the court ordered you to supervise, I think you have to take the lead in supporting our brother, with your money here, you must be more attentive."

Cai Xiang glanced at Ouyang Xiu: "You drunkard, you are not confused at all, we agreed to help each other, why? Do you want to retreat?"

Wang listened to understand the purpose of everyone's visit, he laughed and said: "You don't have to fight, I treat everyone equally, the bank is open for business, to make money flow. It seems that you are giving me a gift?"

"You're welcome, boy, not too much, we have to take the lead in supporting you. Isn't that right? We all agreed to lend you 1000 taels each. This is the continuation of our salary for many years. You boy can be more careful!" Ouyang Xiu He took out a bank note from his pocket and said with a smile.

At this moment, Wang Pang felt mixed feelings in his heart. His heart was hot, but he calmed himself down immediately: "Drunkard, I appreciate everyone's kindness. I run a bank, and we are not short of money! Take these bank notes first. When our bank opens, let's go through the formalities!"

"It's business-like~!" Cai Xiang clapped his hands and said, "King Zhennan, you haven't been with us for a year or two, we know how you are, since you want to be business-like, then I can rest assured to supervise. We'll wait for your bank to open!"

Wang Pang knew that Cai Junmo was also extremely serious in his work. With the support of these people, is Wang Pang still afraid of doing bad things?Just as these people were being sent away, a few servant-like people walked in carrying a box on their shoulders.Lu Shenyan said: "My lord, this is from the Su residence, and they said they brought you something."

Send me something?Wang Pang took the gift list, besides the 500 taels of gold, there were also some gold and silver.

"Could it be that the Su family wants to withdraw their marriage and pay compensation?" Lu Shenyan muttered softly.

Wang Pang looked at the gift list, and then looked at Su Xiaomei's handwritten letter. It turned out that, like Cai Xiang and others, he knew that Wang Pang was going to open a bank. He was worried that Wang Pang was out of money and wanted to borrow money, so he specially asked someone to send it over.Wang Pang chuckled: "Carry it back! By the way, tell your lady that if you want to save money, you can deposit it in the bank when the bank opens!" [

The Wang Shilang, who was once famous all over the world, was going to open a bank in the capital. The news spread like wildfire, spreading all over the streets and alleys of the capital.The Taibao Bank has not yet opened, and the old site where Yunxuan is still under construction has been surrounded by the people of the capital every day.The bank was about to be opened, and Wang Pang's schedule had to be delayed for a few days. Wang Pang ordered people to post a notice: People who have savings at home can choose to store them in the bank.Bank deposits are divided into fixed-term and current deposits, which are regularly paid to depositors at an annual interest rate of [-]%, and the minimum period is one year; For state construction bonds, the first deposit is three years, and the annual interest rate is [-]%.Interest can be withdrawn every month, and of course the interest can also be kept in the bank.

As soon as the notice was posted, people commented that the bank opened by Wang Pang is interesting, and who doesn't know the Jinxiang Mansion, Meyer Mansion and Jinxiu Building by Wang Pang?What's more, the capital is the core of the entire Song Dynasty, and there are a lot of people doing business here. In the past, there was a handling fee for depositing in Jiaozipu. Now not only can the handling fee be saved, but also interest can be charged if the deposit is long.Who wouldn't do such a good thing, and the bank was guaranteed by the imperial court, so the money must be lost.

On the opening day of the bank, Wang Pang personally sat down and carefully selected [-] servants and servants from the mansion who had passed the abacus calculation, and put on the uniform clothes that Wang Pang specially recruited.The door of China Pacific Insurance Bank is wide open to accept all kinds of financial resources.Not to mention this, the original second floor was also converted into a VIP reception by Wang's side, which is dedicated to receiving large-amount fixed-term and bond-buying people.On this day, there was an endless stream of people coming and going, some of Wang Pang's close friends came to support Wang Pang, and some came here just because of his reputation.

At noon, Su Xiaomei came.She was dressed in men's clothes as usual, followed by her servants, still carrying the box.Lu Shenyan did meet this young girl Su, but before Wang Pang went south, the young girl wanted to buy the Meyer Mansion for a few days, so she came to Wang Pang's mansion early every day.As soon as he saw this young master of the Su family, Lu Shenyan, who was busy at the door of the bank, hurried past.

"Hehe, who am I? It turns out to be Mr. Su. You are late today. It is already noon. Besides, my son runs a bank. Look to the east, that is my son's Jinxiu Building~"

Su Xiaomei blushed: "Steward Lu, I'm here to deposit money, and I want to meet your young master by the way."

Lu Shenyan covered his mouth and laughed, "I'm just kidding, the young master is upstairs, and you came just in time. I'm going to leave Xueshi Cai and the others." He said, leading the way and leading Su Xiaomei upstairs.

Wang Pang had just asked Li Enxi to do the calculations, and the Yongzhou construction bonds had been sold for more than 20 taels of silver.One-fifth of the money was raised in one morning, which was a bit beyond Wang Pang's expectation, and Wang Pang knew that those who came in the morning were friends who supported him, and now there are still most of the wealthy merchants in the capital. looking around.Moreover, the number of savings accounts opened on the first floor was far beyond Wang Pang's expectations. Unexpectedly, the people in the capital were so enthusiastic, they opened hundreds of accounts in one morning, and the deposits were tens of thousands of taels.

Satisfied, he was about to greet everyone for a lunch break, and walked downstairs, meeting Lu Shenyan and Su Xiaomei who were going upstairs head-on: "Little sister? Why are you here?"

Wang said that it doesn't matter little girl, Lu Shenyan almost fell down the stairs, what?This sissy young master turned out to be the younger sister of the Su family who had never been married to Wang Pang?Lu Shenyan "rubbed" and "rubbed" his eyes, thinking that this was bad, and he just made fun of her.He hurriedly laughed along with him: "Oh, what did you say? You guys go ahead, I'll go downstairs to make arrangements." After finishing speaking, he turned around and went downstairs in a hurry.

Seeing Lu Shenyan's distressed look, Su Xiaomei smiled and turned to Wang Pang and said, "You are really weird, you don't want to send money to me, but you have to send it to this bank yourself?"

Wang Pang invited the little girl to the VIP room upstairs and asked her to sit and wait.He asked people to call Lu Shenyan to arrange work meals for everyone. Of course, the work meals were fast food prepared specially by Jinxiulou. Each person had a food box, and Jinxiulou would take it away after eating.Before the meal, the bank had to settle the settlement for Jinxiu Building. Although it was all their own business, these procedures must be clarified.He asked Li Enxi to prepare a deposit certificate for Su Xiaomei. He estimated that it was almost time before he came to the VIP room with two food boxes.

"What are you doing?" Su Xiaomei waited for Li Enxi to leave the VIP room, and said half angrily.

Wang Pang put the food box in front of Su Xiaomei: "Please, work lunch!" He smiled and sat opposite Su Xiaomei, opened the food box in front of him, and ate without any hesitation.

Su Xiaomei didn't move her chopsticks, she pouted angrily and turned away from Wang's side.But I thought in my heart why this person is so weird? !After all, he is a girl's family, and Wang Pang of Zhongyi heard Su Shi say that Wang Pang agreed very happily, so why did he see that he was lukewarm when he came.
