Chapter 115: Casting from other provinces
"What are you talking nonsense?" A light reprimand came from the door.
Everyone was startled and turned around and saw the big shopkeeper Zhang Deming standing at the door with a wooden face. He quickly stood up and said respectfully: "I have met the big shopkeeper."
Zhang Deming glanced at everyone coldly and scolded: "Before the group broke up, I have left all the rules of the money house behind me? Who allowed me to drink in the afternoon?"
Yang Kaitai quickly resigned and said, "We have nothing to do with the account in the past few days..."
"Look at how you look like this?" Zhang Deming scolded for a few words before saying, "Everyone hurry up and go to wash and change clothes, follow me to the bank mansion, and you don't have to go if you are drunk."
Everyone started drinking, it was fine at all. They heard that they were going to the bank mansion. The third shopkeeper Shi Mingxing asked boldly: "The account has not been completed yet, why are you going to the bank mansion?"
"I even forgot the rules after drinking some wine? Is this what you should ask?" Zhang Deming scolded him angrily, turned around and left.
Xirong Lane, Bank Mansion.
Under the tall and exquisitely carved eaves, the plaque of the Bank Hall has been removed and replaced with the plaque of the Yuanqi Bank Headquarters. However, because Yuanqi is also named as a bank, the name of the Bank Mansion has been followed. The shopkeepers of the bank may have nostalgic mentality or may be used to it. Most of them are not called Yuanqi Headquarters, but are called the Bank Mansion.
The bank mansion has been continuously expanded and repaired for 200 years, covering a wide area. Yi Jingzuo likes quietness. Instead of wanting the yard where Liang Jiemin lived, he chose the side courtyard on the east side - Rongyuan. Because there is a big banyan tree in the yard that is fifty years old. He likes the yard, but he doesn't like the name, so he asked someone to change the banyan garden into Rongyuan, which means to be tolerant.
The main room in Rongyuan is a row of three rooms, with the study room in the east, the bedroom in the west, and the living room in the middle. The windows on both sides of the study are inlaid with Western glass and the lighting is very good. The room should be furnished from desks, bookcases, papers, pens and inkstones. Although Yi Jing is not aware of the goods, he also knows that these things are expensive and he is quite unaccustomed. Fortunately, he goes from frugality to extravagant Yi, but in just a few days, he gradually gets used to it.
"Young Master." Li Wang reported at the entrance of the study: "The shopkeepers and shopkeepers of Hengtai Money House are here."
Yi Zhizu put down his pen and looked up and ordered: "Invite all the shopkeepers and friends in, and the other friends are waiting under the shade of the tree." As he said that, he got up and left the study and walked out of the gate to greet him.
When Zhang Deming saw Yi Zhizu come out to greet him, he felt a little warm. He hurriedly rushed to a few steps, bowed and said, "Zhang Deming has seen the big shopkeeper."
Behind Yang Kaitai, Shi Mingxing, Song Wenxing and others quickly bowed together and said in unison: "I have met the big shopkeeper."
Yi Zhizu bowed and returned the gift, and said with a smile: "Please please in the room."
After entering the house, everyone was a little restrained. Yuan Qi is not the Yuan Qi of the previous one. Yuan Qi now unified the Guangzhou money shop and its strength has expanded rapidly. It is definitely the largest bank in the Qing Dynasty. Yi Zhizuo, which is naturally the big shopkeeper, and even Liang Jiemin from the bank club and the Shanxi Piaohao shop were shorter in front of him, let alone them.
Seeing that everyone was not afraid to sit down, Yi Zhizu sat straight in the main seat and smiled and said, "You are all Yuanqi's employees now, so you don't have to be restrained, just sit down."
After hearing this, Zhang Deming bowed and took the lead in sitting down after thanking him. Everyone sat down one after another, but they didn't dare to confirm. They sat down half of their butts with their bodies slanted. Seeing this, Yi Zhizu couldn't help but feel a little funny. He immediately coughed lightly and said, "I'll invite you all today, because there are important things to discuss..."
Zhang Deming quickly bowed and said, "Shopkeeper Yi Da will give orders if you have any questions."
Yi Zhizu said straight to the point: "After Yuanqi unified the whole country, there are naturally no need for so many houses... What should I do if there are any extra houses?"
When Yang Kaitai and others heard this, their hearts suddenly sank. They were really afraid of anything they were going to come. Yi Zhizu called them here and was so polite. He really wanted to fire them?
After a pause, Yi Zhizu continued: "It is not easy to train the shopkeeper of the money shop. Yuan Qi will naturally not let it go and abandon it without using it. What's more, Yuan Qi will not stop after unifying Guangzhou, and will continue to expand. The number of votes can still connect to the world. Why can't Yuan Qi not connect to the world?
In the next year, Yuanqi will unify the money saving business in Guangdong, and then continue to expand to other provinces. Today, I would like to discuss the expansion of other provinces. Xiguan is full of money banks, and Hengtai money bank can be among the six major money banks in Xiguan. You have no doubt about your ability, so I want you to go to Nanjing City."
The room was quiet, and everyone thought they had heard it wrong. Yuan Qi would unify the money market in Guangdong within one year, and then continue to expand to other provinces, connecting the world like a ticket number!
After coming back to his senses, Zhang Deming hurriedly bowed and said, "Should Manager Yi Da Sin, please think twice. The reason why Yuan Qi was able to gain a foothold in Xiguan and unify the Guangzhou Qianxing was because there were strong financial support from Thirteen banks and the support of the Governor. We went to Nanjing, and we were not familiar with the place, and we had no strong funds and no support from the government, so we were afraid it would be difficult to gain a foothold."
Yi Zhizu said with a slight hint: "Shopkeeper Zhang is worried, but he sent you to Nanjing to prepare for Yuanqi's march into Liangjiang. You don't need to play the signboard of Yuanqi branch, just take the name of the bank, and follow the rules of Nanjing's bank, and run the bank honestly and carefully.
Your mission is to base yourself in Nanjing Money Store, make friends with a group of shopkeepers and bank clubs in Nanjing Money Store, and collect and understand the local economy and commodity flow. Another is to recruit a large number of local people as apprentices, learn local dialects, and understand local customs, which is also to prepare for future expansion."
After hearing these words, Zhang Deming and others breathed a sigh of relief. This job was much easier. Although he was going to Nanjing and his life was not familiar with the place, he was also far away from the emperor. No one could take care of him. Life might be much better than in Guangzhou. Moreover, Nanjing has been prosperous since ancient times, and it may not be inferior to Guangzhou.
After a pause, Yi Zhizu continued: "The land of Liangjiang, Yuanqi is determined to win. After consolidating Guangdong, the next goal is Liangjiang. Not only you are sent to Liangjiang, but also others, and not only you are one in Nanjing. Everyone has equal opportunities and fair competition.
After Yuan Qi unified the Liangjiang River, he would definitely reward merits. You will be the shopkeeper of a store, the shopkeeper of a city, the shopkeeper of a place, or the general manager of a province, it depends on your contribution."
After hearing this, everyone was very excited. This is a rare opportunity. Once you miss this, you will probably not be able to encounter such a good opportunity in your life. Zhang Deming quickly stood up and bowed, and said in a deep voice: "The boss is promoted like this, and you will never dare to bear the boss' trust in the lower class!"
Yang Kaitai, Shi Mingxing, Song Wenxing and others quickly stood up and said in unison: "I will never dare to be the best boss to promote him if I am inferior!"
