A gust of evening wind blew by, and the petals fluttered in the wind and fell into the Slender West Lake, disturbing the bright moon originally reflected on the lake.
There is no curfew in Yangzhou City!
This was originally the most gratifying policy for merchants, because they could have more time to make some money at night.
But now, the people in Yangzhou's bookstore hope very much that it will implement a curfew policy like Chang'an and drive all the people on the streets home!
Just as Xiao Han said: During the day, they closed the door urgently to avoid the crowd. Not only was it useless, but it made the rumor spreaders among them even more aggressive! It also made the onlookers who didn't know the truth even more frightened.
Many people who didn’t believe it at first couldn’t help but stop believing it when they saw more and more people on the street and heard the bad news getting worse and worse!
Everyone has worked hard to make money, and no one’s money comes from the strong wind! If they are all cheated by others without noticing, then they don’t have to do anything else and quickly pick out a beautiful crooked-neck tree.
, just hang yourself.
The night is already deep, though.
But the people on the street still did not disperse.
We already told you when the shop was closing that their main store will definitely open tomorrow!
So at this time, all the people on the street gathered at the entrance of the cloth store, blocking the originally wide street.
There are many people, but the sound is not noisy.
Under the illumination of the angry wind lanterns hanging from the eaves on both sides, people were holding their banknotes tightly or whispering to their close friends. Instead, they lost the momentum of storming into businesses during the day and looting everything.
It can be said that today's decision to avoid temporarily has its useful side.
The night, no matter how long it is, will pass!
Days, no matter how short they are, will come!
When the first ray of light in the morning entered the city, countless people gathered around the gate of Buhang raised their heads and looked at the gate they had been looking at all night.
"Pattering..."
Just at this moment, the sound of wheels rolling over the stone steps came from the other end of the road.
What followed was the labored breathing of the draft horse, the scolding of the groom, and the sound of the whip being raised.
Although listening to it alone, the sound is not too loud! But when dozens of carriages are mixed together, the sound is quite impressive.
As soon as the huge carriage team appeared on the street, it attracted the attention of most people.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the gate of the cloth shop, which had been silent all night, slowly opened.
The chief shopkeeper of the cloth shop, with bloodshot eyes, stood behind the door, bathing in the early morning sunshine. He slowly raised his hand and saluted the people outside.
"I'm sorry, everyone! Yesterday, due to insufficient preparations for the ceremony, you didn't exchange the money! I'm deeply sorry for this! Fortunately, later in the evening, I urgently mobilized money from the bank, which was as much as 100,000 guan!
So today, everyone comes one by one and can exchange their own money!"
The big shopkeeper speaks very slowly, but is extremely decisive!
As he said his last word, dozens of carriages on the street happened to arrive outside the crowd.
Those people who had originally blocked the road, somehow, after seeing the carriage escorted by the county government officers and officials, subconsciously made way for the carriage to follow the main road until it reached the gate of the cloth branch.
"Shua...!"
Standing on the first carriage, the tarpaulin covering the carriage was pulled open by the shopkeeper of the cloth shop himself!
All of a sudden, what I saw were all golden copper coins. These coins were all placed in wooden boxes in the carriage of the cart. The boxes were full, and they were piled high!
There are even some that cannot be held, so they are just hung outside the box, swaying back and forth in the morning light, making people worried that they will break the rope and fall off the car.
"This... so much money!"
Those who stayed up all night were stunned!
In front of their eyes, the tarpaulins of the cars were pulled open. There was no doubt that all the cars were filled with money!
For a time, the entire entrance of the cloth store was covered with the shadow of copper coins, extending to the end of the street!
"Oh? There are experts!"
On the third floor of a restaurant opposite the cloth shop, Xiao Han, who had woken up early in the morning, used his telescope to take a closer look at the carriage pulling copper coins, and then suddenly started laughing.
"The method is good! Don't talk empty words, but first come up with something to stabilize people's hearts! But, do you really think I haven't seen how much money there is in ten thousand guan?"
Shaking his head, Xiao Han couldn't help but think of the first pot of gold he made in Datang.
That’s a full fifteen thousand strings!
Although only 4,000 guan of copper coins were exchanged at that time, how many carriages were used to transport it back to Sanyuan County? Seven or eight, or eight or nine? I can’t remember clearly.
And these carriages in front of us now, even if they don't have to travel far, one can be worth two!
700,000 kilograms of copper coins, it would take hundreds of cars to carry it, right? Who are you trying to scare with these dozens of cars?
Putting down the telescope, picking up a spoon, and gently stirring the millet porridge in front of him, Xiao Han looked at Yangzhou Buhang with an increasingly sarcastic look.
"Let Manager Xue come on stage. I want to see how he will deal with being slapped in front of someone for the second time and breaking his trust again."
"yes!"
Ziyi, who was standing by the table, didn't say anything to ask anything. He just responded softly and went straight downstairs.
The sound of crisp footsteps disappeared at the top of the stairs. Xiao Han leaned against the window with a sense of loss. While looking at the scene outside, he casually scooped up the golden rice porridge and brought it to his mouth, but he didn't know whether he tasted it in the end.
,
There were as many copper coins as carts and mountains, completely attracting everyone's attention.
And those police officers with long snow-white swords directly suppressed many sneaky thoughts!
The chief shopkeeper of the cloth shop glanced at the surprised crowd outside and gradually relaxed. Then he coughed a few times and quickly ran out of the cloth shop with some clerks holding tables and chairs in their arms.
The seat was placed in front of the carriage. The waiter hurriedly left, and several accountants in long robes filed out. Shi Shiran sat down at the table.
Seeing that everything was settled, the big shopkeeper of the cloth shop handed it over again.
In the eyes of everyone outside who were puzzled or surprised, he continued: "Everyone! I know that someone maliciously slandered us yesterday! That led to what happened today! To prove our innocence today, we will conduct the ceremony here. Everyone, please exchange the banknote! As long as you have the banknote, we will pay on the spot and we will never break our promise!"
As soon as these words were said, the faces of people outside were obviously happy, and some even breathed a long sigh of relief. Seeing this, the big shopkeeper pursed his lips and struck again while the iron was hot: "Everyone has seen it now, money, we don't No! If you still have any concerns, just come and exchange them for copper coins!
Of course, if you still trust us, we will not redeem the money for the time being! I hereby announce that starting from next month, for three consecutive months, all storage fees will be waived for redeeming banknotes!"
