Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

Depositing money in a bank gives interest, and they give away rice, flour, oil, and even eggs for free?

This is just too rare of an occurrence!

It's already good enough that they help people safeguard their money without charging a fee, but this is even better, giving money and goods.

Could it be that there really is such a good thing as free lunch?

The attention of the common people was instantly diverted to the bank.

A fairy is good, but what's the use if you can't get any benefit from her?

After a quick fling, what is a fairy even worth?

She is nothing!

Money is different....

They were tempted, but the common people's sense of caution was obviously extremely strong. Although the matter was published in the newspaper,

they were, after all, people who had been struggling in society, being trampled on by life day after day.

It wasn't easy to save a little money. What if it was taken away by others?

This matter sounded strange no matter how you heard it.

"Who opened this bank? Why have I never heard of it before?"

"Is the news reliable? What if everyone goes to deposit money and the bank runs away with the silver? How can there be such a good thing in the world?"

"That's right, isn't this just giving money to everyone? There have been a lot of scams in the capital recently. Even the advertisements in the Banshan Newspaper sell substandard goods."

The newspaper reader pressed his hands down: "Please be quiet, everyone, and listen to me."

"Everyone, don't be afraid. This Jingxing Bank is being managed by the famous Liu Zhongshun, and behind him is also the Marquis of Jianye. There is absolutely no problem with security! Even if he can run away with the money, can his house run away too?"

"Everyone, please remember that the event is only limited to three days. Remember to bring your household registration documents from home to the bank, otherwise you won't be allowed to deposit money. Don't miss this opportunity!"

Liu Zhongshun, and the Marquis of Jianye behind him?

Those are all extraordinary figures!

The crowd was in an uproar, discussing heatedly.

"Hey! Everyone, don't be afraid. How can scammers be so blatant? Even if they are scamming people, can they collect the money in one day? Let's deposit money today and withdraw it tomorrow. It's equivalent to getting a free gift."

A shout suddenly appeared.

Those present immediately realized the truth.

That's right, it seems to be the case.

First of all, Liu Zhongshun and the Marquis of Jianye have a reputation, so it is unlikely to be fake.

In addition, even if there is a risk in depositing money, can't I deposit it, receive a gift, and then withdraw it?

Could it be that he can run away immediately?

Many people woke up and ran towards the exchange, leaving the crowd.

Gradually, there were very few people left in place to continue listening to the news.

Fang Zheng was satisfied and returned.

With Jingxing Bank's strength and background, the publicity shouldn't have been so troublesome, but the people were too cautious.

It would have been even better if Emperor Jing could have been mentioned in the newspaper, but that was unlikely.

Although Emperor Jing occupied half of the shares in the bank, it would not have been in accordance with the rules to promote it in the newspaper in such a big way.

It's always bad for the emperor to do business himself. Using the dragon's face as a banknote design is okay, but if you want to publish it in the newspaper, the court will definitely strongly oppose it.

When Fang Zheng slowly returned to the vicinity of Jingxing Bank, he found that the area around the bank was already surrounded by people.

The area in front of the bank had already been cordoned off with 'police tape' in advance.

Presents like small mountains were piled up in front of the bank door, including packaged rice, flour, oil, and other items.

The rice and flour were tied with good floral cloth pockets, and seemed to weigh about half a kilogram.

The oil was packed in exquisite small glass bottles, and the yellow-orange color was particularly attractive in the sunlight.

Next to it was a beautiful woman guarding it.

The people were naturally as shocked by the novel architectural style as they were when they first saw the bank yesterday.

Another focus was on the pile of supplies at the door.

Although they were greedy, no one dared to enter.

That's how the common people are. They talk a lot, and ideas pop up in their minds one by one, but when it really comes to doing something, they immediately become cowardly without a leader.

Fang Zheng knew this very well, so he had already 'ambushed' many people in the crowd according to the usual three axes!

The density of the crowd was already extremely high. A reporter dressed in plain clothes in the crowd immediately squeezed out of the crowd and strode towards Jingxing Bank with a money bag in full view.

One reporter took the lead, and another reporter followed closely behind.

Before long, more than twenty reporters had squeezed out of the crowd and went to the bank to conduct business.

The people outside peered inside through the glass windows.

They saw that those people went inside and sat sideways in front of the counter, seeming to be talking to someone, and then handed the money bag in their hands to the other party.

In a few minutes, they immediately got up and went out.

Holding something like a booklet and a piece of paper.

After handing the note to the security guard in charge of the rice, flour, and oil, they picked up a bottle of oil and left gracefully in the envious eyes of the crowd!

"Damn! They really give it away!"

"I think that oil bottle is very valuable! There is not much oil prepared..."

Seeing that people were starting to receive supplies, people with some cash in hand couldn't hold back and immediately mustered up the courage to walk towards the bank.

As people other than the 'actors' began to be encouraged, more and more people began to muster up the courage to enter the bank.

For a time, dozens of people emerged from the crowd and began to queue up to conduct business in the bank.

Supplies began to be taken away one by one, but everyone's priority was the oil in glass bottles.

As more and more people deposited money, some people who had finished depositing money were finally stopped by the crowd.

The people gathered together, all curiously asking.

"Is the oil good oil? Can you let us see it?"

"Brother, what is that booklet you are holding?"

The depositor, facing countless curious eyes, proudly raised the booklet in his hand: "This is called a passbook. The bank said that every time you deposit or withdraw money, there will be a record here, corresponding to the bank's internal account, and interest will be calculated according to the date. If there is an error, the bank will compensate. If that doesn't work, this thing can also be used as evidence to go to the yamen to sue them."

"Well, this oil is also good oil. However, the bank said that the oil is too expensive and will only be distributed today. There is only that pile, and in the next two days, only rice, flour, and eggs will be distributed. The deposited money can be withdrawn at any time, but they also said that you can get one more penny of interest if you withdraw it tomorrow. I think Jingxing Bank is reliable and there is no problem!"

The depositor said, taking out a five-tael silver note from his arms and showing off to the crowd: "Look at this silver note! I have never seen such good paper, and I tell you, there are also several large denominations pasted inside, with our emperor and prince printed on them!"

"Our Emperor and Prince are printed on the silver notes! ?" There was an exclamation in the crowd, "Really?"

"How can it be fake? With the blessing of His Majesty and the Prince, depositing money in the bank also gives money, so let's try it! I'll come back tomorrow to withdraw the money!" After saying that, the depositor immediately disappeared from the crowd.

As soon as he said this, the surrounding people were immediately moved.

They turned their bodies towards the bank.

Seeing that people were entering the bank sporadically, many people secretly drooled.

Five taels of silver!

There are too many people who want to deposit now, but don't have five taels of silver at home. Are they just watching the opportunity to pick up money slip away?

The golden oil and the valuable oil bottles, are they just passing us by?
