"Ahem." The old man at the head saw that as Elder Shen spoke, a depressed mood spread among the crowd, and couldn't help but interrupt.
He encouraged himself and said: "Since the Ming Dynasty can make this treasure banknote, I believe that we can also make it. It is just a matter of time. And no matter how difficult it is to make this treasure banknote, Mr. Shen must find a way to make it."
If such treasure banknotes are made, otherwise..."
Otherwise, the leader of the old man did not say it clearly. But everyone here knew it well.
Although these people have indeed made a lot of money in business over the years, doing business also has costs and risks. A business trip obviously looks like making money, but when encountering any unexpected situation, it can happen in a blink of an eye.
It is possible to lose all their money within a short period of time. In recent years, their biggest source of gain is still relying on private printing of treasure banknotes. Not only is the profit from privately printing treasure banknotes more generous than doing trade, but the risks are relatively smaller. As long as they do not
Once noticed by the Ming court, they basically had no risks and could easily obtain stable profits.
But now the Ming Dynasty has produced such a treasure banknote, which makes it impossible for them to imitate it. This is absolutely impossible. In recent years, they have gained a lot of wealth by privately printing treasure banknotes. This is just lying down and spending money.
Picked up. In the face of such a huge amount of wealth at one's fingertips, individuals will become extremely extravagant and lustful. Even the tapestry used by the emperor to make robes can be used to stand on tiptoe. As the saying goes, from frugality to luxury is easy.
, It is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality. After experiencing such a wealthy life, now the new Ming Dynasty treasure banknotes will directly cut off their way to obtain wealth, how can they be willing to do so?
What should they do if they are not willing to do so? Naturally, they will continue to print treasure banknotes privately. If the Ming Dynasty can make such treasure banknotes, they naturally think they can do it themselves.
Just when everyone was somewhat comforted by the words of the old man, Mr. Shen poured cold water on everyone's hearts. "This is not a question of whether it is difficult or not, but a question of the old man simply not knowing how to start.
The old man didn't even know what material the paper was made of. It also contained ink, and it must not be ordinary ink. Otherwise, it would be impossible to print such a delicate pattern. It's difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without straw, so how could the old man start?
"
After hearing this, the old man at the head pondered for a moment, then turned to ask a middle-aged man, "Jingzhai, do you have any news?"
When the middle-aged man saw the old man calling his name, he cupped his fists and saluted and replied: "As for the paper materials, although I don't have accurate information, I have a guess. Han Du has not been in office for a long time. Since he took office, he has only made a large amount of money."
One thing he bought was cotton. He even offered several times the price to buy cotton, which caused a sensation in the capital. I was wondering, could the paper of this treasure note be made of cotton?
"
Everyone was silent after hearing this. Especially Mr. Shen, he lowered his head and thought hard.
"Can't you get some accurate information from the craftsmen in the Baobao Lifting Department?" The old man at the head was obviously not satisfied with the information Jingzhai guessed.
"No." Jingzhai explained with a wry smile: "Although Han Du is young, he is as cunning as a fox. Although the treasure bank transfer department has changed people, let us focus on him.
, but did not pay too much attention to the craftsmen below. In addition, this man deliberately diverted our attention with a hammer and a stick. As a result, when we found out that he wanted to re-make the treasure banknotes, we wanted to get information from the craftsmen.
It was already too late, Han Du had already strictly protected the craftsmen."
"Later we wanted to start with Han Du. We had already arranged everything and were waiting for him to take the bait. But we didn't expect that he would be so courageous. He was not even afraid of being haunted. Not only did he stay in the room as usual every day,
Being able to sleep truly peacefully is also incredible.”
The process had already been arranged for Han Du, to frighten Han Du with the idea of being haunted and make him fearful, preferably to the point of panic. In this way, as an official, Han Du would definitely not go around claiming that his home was haunted. Generally speaking, people
In my mind, if something like this happened at home and I couldn't make it public, I would definitely invite some Taoist monks to come to the house to exorcise the evil spirits. As long as Han Du starts to want to invite Taoist monks, he will take the bait, and things will be fine.
There are many things that can be done. Whether it is threatening or even directly kidnapping Han Du, he can get the secret of Baoqian out of Han Du's mouth.
It's a pity that Han Du didn't take the ordinary route and actually ignored their pretense. They threatened Han Du for so many days, but Han Du didn't seem to hear it, eating and sleeping when he should, and even took the initiative to prevent his family members from going.
Ask an expert to exorcise evil spirits.
In the end, not only were they helpless against Han Du, but they didn't even know why they attracted Zhu Yuanzhang's attention and got their own people involved. If they hadn't made a decisive decision and cut off the tail immediately, Zhu Yuanzhang might have followed the clues and found him.
"Now the capital is in turmoil. Zhu Yuanzhang has noticed us through that incident. Our people don't dare to act rashly in the capital, let alone inquire about the treasure." Jingzhai felt very troubled and sighed.
Said angrily.
After hearing this, the leader of the old man said: "Zhu Yuanzhang noticed us, and it's not a matter of a day or two. It's just that he is very cunning, and he keeps all the news about us in his heart. Who knows?"
He just didn't tell us. Otherwise, he wouldn't have suppressed the people we pushed out in the first place. He obviously made a great contribution, no less than the founding fathers of the country, but in the end, the two marquises didn't get anything, and they just gave them painlessly.
A count."
Having said this, everyone present showed a look of anger and resentment. These people did not gather together just today. Their organization has lasted for hundreds of years and has been passed down from generation to generation. At the beginning, Yuan
In these troubled times, various rebel forces have emerged. As a force, although they have not personally ended up, they have also made bets from all parties. All rebel forces, no matter how big or small, have people arranged by them.
I originally thought that no matter who would win the final victory and rule the world, they would always be on the side of the winner. Unexpectedly, Zhu Yuanzhang was actually very smart. He even noticed them without any evidence.
There was something wrong with the person who made the arrangement, so they suppressed this person many times. As a result, their plan to show off their power after the establishment of the new dynasty was aborted.
