Chapter 255: Despicable businessman! The sorrow of little people!

Daming Bank.

Shen Er walked into the bank again with a lot of treasure money in his arms and some trepidation.

This was not the first time he came to exchange cash, so he was very scared and uneasy at the moment.

The two kind-hearted security guards at the bank entrance suddenly became a little vicious now that they fell into Shen Er's eyes.

He was originally just a boy in a grain store. Following his smart and capable shopkeeper, he ran the grain store that had no shortage of business, and he had no worries about food and drink.

However, suddenly one day, the adults above the shopkeeper suddenly sent a large amount of treasure notes and asked them all to take them to the bank to exchange them for cash, and they had to do it quickly, and they had to exchange them all.

Faced with this task from the adults above, the shopkeeper could only obey it honestly.

There is nothing that can be done about it. In today's world, the status of businessmen is low and low.

Without the support of the big shots behind the scenes, let alone making money by doing business and opening a store in the imperial capital, even before it develops, it will be eaten to the core!

Therefore, merchants who do business in Beijing are almost always backed by an official or dignitary. The bigger the business is, the more dignified the person behind them becomes.

This is the tacit understanding and rules of doing business in the imperial capital.

It’s just that the shopkeeper didn’t expect that the adult seemed to be crazy. He exchanged batches for another batch, and even ordered the shopkeeper to buy treasure banknotes at low prices in the market, and then take them to the bank to exchange the same amount for cash!

Isn't this damn thing going against the imperial court?

Especially against Prince Han, the prisoner of the country!

Shen Er and the others were not stupid. Although they did not know the significance of the bank to Ming Dynasty, they clearly felt the convenience brought to them by the opening of the bank.

It is obvious that this bank is another benevolent policy launched by Prince Han, the superintendent of the country, for the common people, so it is such a big fanfare and mobilization of troops.

As a result, that gentleman now wants to go against the bank and take advantage of the opportunity to make huge profits, which is very shameful.

It was difficult for the shopkeeper and Shen Er to accept this order. After all, in their hearts, Prince Han was the benefactor of the people. Now it was tantamount to asking them to repay kindness with hatred. How could they do it?

However, that adult issued a death order and even brought shocking news!

Not only them, but also other shops and merchants will take the treasure notes to the bank to exchange them for cash!

It seems that all the adults have united to fight against the Ming Dynasty Bank and the Prince of Han Dynasty!

After learning this shocking news, even if the shopkeeper didn't want to, he could only carry out the orders honestly.

Because he is just a small businessman and has no other choice.

When gods fight, little devils suffer.

They are just businessmen with low status. Although they have a lot of money in their hands, their status is pitifully low.

If you want to make money by doing business in the imperial capital, you have to rely on officials and dignitaries and work hard all day long. Most of the profits go into the pockets of these officials and dignitaries.

The shopkeeper knows his status very well, so he dare not disobey orders.

Shen Er is just a boy who wants to eat, and he can only follow orders.

That's why we exchanged treasure notes for several days in a row, without even much of a break in between.

When I came to the bank's exchange business counter, there was already a long queue.

Shen Er observed for a while and discovered with sharp eyes that there were many familiar faces in the team.

Either he was a clerk from a shop in the Imperial Capital, or he was someone who came frequently to exchange treasure notes these past few days.

When he thought of this, Shen Er felt even more frightened and chilled in his heart.

It seems that what the gentleman said is true. The officials and dignitaries have united to fight against Prince Han!

What a bunch of bastards!

Cursing a few words in his heart, Shen Er could only line up honestly.

He is just a small person, with no right to choose and no qualification to resist. Even if he is reluctant, he can only obey orders honestly.

This is the tragedy of little people.

Soon we arrived at Shen Er. As soon as the worker behind the counter saw him, he immediately showed a meaningful smile.

Are you here to exchange treasure banknotes again?

Uh...yeah, trouble.

No trouble, no trouble.

For some reason, the brighter the counter worker smiled, the more panicked Shen Er felt.

After finally getting through the ordeal, Shen Er quickly left the bank with the bag of hot cash in hand, as if he was running away.

But he didn't expect that from the moment the counter worker said those words, he had already been targeted by the Jinyiwei secret whistle.

It was day and night in the Shen family shop.

Shen Er and the shopkeeper Shen Gui looked at the pile of treasure notes in front of them worriedly, with ugly expressions on their faces.

Shopkeeper, why have you sent so many more? What do those adults want to do...

Shut up! How can you and I understand the thoughts of adults?

Shen Gui cursed angrily, his face equally ashen.

Shen Er was angry and rarely retorted: They are just uneasy and well-intentioned. They used to exchange it themselves, but when they found something was wrong, they asked us to top the tank. If something goes wrong, it has nothing to do with them...

Do you think I don't know? We are just humble businessmen, what else can we do? Is it possible that we will stop doing business?

Shen Gui sighed and said with a sad smile: We little people, what else can we do besides being obedient?

Shopkeeper, how about we go...report to the official?

Hearing this, Shen Gui's face changed drastically and he slapped him hard!

Idiot! Are you crazy? Report to the officials? They are the officials!

We're afraid we'll be dead before the news reaches Prince Han!

Shen Er covered his face with dissatisfaction and muttered: I'm not talking about ordinary yamen, but...Jinyiwei!

Jinyiwei!

The royal guards in the hands of Prince Han!

Shen Gui's eyes lit up when he heard the name, but then dimmed again.

Silly boy, even if Jin Yiwei knows about it, what will happen?

Prince Han is furious. If he kills the man behind us, the situation will only be worse for us.

Without the backing of officials and dignitaries, their Shen's Grain Store would be eaten up to the crumbs!

Shen Gui thought that in order to get along with that big shot and ask him to take care of him, Shen Gui gave away most of his family wealth, and then he asked for a chance to settle down in the imperial capital.

Thinking of these hardships and sorrows, Shen Gui couldn't help but have red eyes.

My child, when gods fight, little devils suffer!

We humble businessmen are not qualified to get involved in the games and fights of these big shots.

I know you love Prince Han. Why don't the old man remember the kindness of Prince Han? It's just that the adult behind us gave orders to kill him. There is nothing the old man can do to save this grain store!

Shen Gui sighed and handed some treasure notes to Shen Er.

I'll take it to the bank to exchange it tomorrow, and the rest of the old men will go too, so the target will be smaller...

Before he finished speaking, a sudden change occurred.

A violent banging on the door suddenly sounded, causing the two people's expressions to change dramatically.

Before they could ask, the door was kicked open the next moment. UU reading www.uukanshu.net

A group of armored and armed guards rushed in, pushed the two of them to the ground without any explanation, and then put several shining swords on their necks.

Hoarding money, taking advantage of the opportunity to make profits, disrupting national policies, and intending to destabilize the Ming Dynasty. Have you two figured out how to die?

A man in brocade clothes walked in with a smile, his eyes as cold as a knife.

When Shen Gui and Shen Er heard this, their faces turned pale with fright, and they were extremely frightened.

Sir, villain... Shen Gui panicked and didn't know what to say.

Shen Er was heartbroken when he saw this, and immediately shouted: Sir, it has nothing to do with us. We are all assigned by others and are preparing to report to the Jinyi Guards...

Oh? This is interesting. Let them go.

Jinyi Baihu was stunned when he heard this, then laughed and asked his men to let go of the two of them.

He knelt down and looked directly at Shen Er, and asked with a smile: Boy, stop talking nonsense. I know you are assigned by others.

Stop talking about other nonsense. I just want to get a name, and nothing will happen to you.

Shen Er finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked at his shopkeeper.

Hearing the promise of Jinyi Baihu, Shen Gui glared at Shen Er fiercely, and then said a name in despair.

The Temple of the Ministry of Rites offers sacrifices to Lord Zhang He, the official of the Qing Dynasty!

Hearing this name, Jinyi Baihu laughed loudly.

Zhang He, this is a big fish!

He immediately summoned someone and shouted in a low voice: Go and report to Lord Qianhu that Zhang He, the doctor of the Ministry of Rites, is guilty and will be arrested immediately!

This is a big fish that can bring down the giant. It is not big enough for him to catch people from a hundred households.

But the weight of Nie Xing's Qianhu family is definitely enough, and it doesn't matter if he kills Zhang He.

Thinking about it, Jinyi Baihu couldn't help but laugh strangely.
