After finishing speaking, Yu Chigong was not seen leaving.
Yuchi Gong looked at Du He and then at the ground, as shy as a young daughter-in-law who had just walked through the door.
Du He couldn't help but ask: "Uncle Yuchi, do you have anything else?"
Yu Chigong said in embarrassment: "I...I don't have that much money!"
Yuchi Gong was born as a military general and had no idea about money. When everyone was buying property, he was sent to Tongzhou to serve as the governor, and he never thought about starting a profitable business.
Nowadays, spending 100,000 yuan to buy a house has become a problem.
A penny can stump a hero.
Yu Chigong said: "My dear nephew, you see, your father and I have been good friends for many years. Pauline and you have been sworn brothers. We have been friends for many years. Now, I have difficulties, and you can't just sit back and watch."
Ignore it, right?"
Yuchi Laohei actually played the emotional card.
Du He said with a smile: "Uncle Yuchi, you are absolutely right. Based on our friendship, I can't help you, right? Do you really want to buy a house?"
Yuchi Gong nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Of course. When I heard what you said today, I felt more and more that Chang'an City was overcrowded and cramped. It would be better to buy a house in Hu County so that I could settle down my family. Here we are.
Wouldn't it be nice to take a day off from bathing and go sightseeing?"
Du He thought deeply: "Uncle Yuchi, if that's the case, then you might as well borrow a loan from Wudi Bank."
"Loan?"
Yuchi Gong looked confused.
Du He explained patiently: "Uncle Yuchi, you can borrow 100,000 guan at a time from Wudi Bank and use the money to buy a house. You can pay back 100,000 guan in five years. Of course, interest is inevitable. What do you think?"
"
"How much is the interest?"
"As far as I know, if you borrow 100,000 guan for five years, the interest should be about 20,000 guan."
"So high?" Yu Chigong was a little surprised.
Du He shook his head: "Uncle Yuchi, no, no, this interest is already low. Think about it, if I give you one hundred thousand guan and you go into business, in five years, you will earn more than 20,000 guan...
"
"That's true!"
"In that case, Uncle Yuchi, what do you think?"
"If you buy it, I will go to Wudi Bank for a loan tomorrow." Yuchi Gong gritted his teeth and made a decision.
…
Before dark.
Lai Kingdom Government House.
Li Yuanshu is sitting by the window reading a book.
Li Lizhi came over and asked: "Sister, aren't you bored staying in the house all day?"
Li Yuanshu laughed dumbly and said: "Sister Li Zhi, how can I not be bored? My husband is busy with disaster relief and has no time to accompany us. Now, Dream Group has Manager Ma in charge, and Wudi Bank has no one."
There are so many things that my sister has to do when she has free time. Even after a long time, she feels bored... Oh, it would be great if my husband was here."
"yes……"
The two of them were talking to each other.
At this moment, a voice sounded at the door: "Yuanshu, from now on, you won't be able to take any time off. There will be times when you are busy."
The two women turned their heads at the same time and saw Du He striding in.
"Husband!"
The two stood up at the same time and rushed forward in surprise, holding Du He's arms one on the left and the other on the right.
Li Li asked: "Husband, will you stay for dinner today?"
"Of course I want to eat!"
"Then stay the night?"
Du He was stunned and asked with a smile: "Together?"
"I hate it, husband!" Li Lizhi was so shy that she hit Du He on the chest with her small fist.
Du He pinched Li Lizhi's face, turned to Li Yuanshu and said: "Yuanshu, please gather all the managers of Wudi Bank as soon as possible and hold a meeting. Starting from tomorrow, Wudi Bank will probably start to get busy."
Li Yuanshu asked in confusion: "Husband, why is this?"
Du He explained: "Datang Construction Company built 800 new houses in Hu County. Originally, these houses were not easy to sell, but now I have convinced my father to include the Hu County area into the territory of Chang'an City. From then on,
From now on, the place where these houses are located also belongs to Chang'an City, and the biggest obstacle for us sellers has been eliminated... I think many people can't help but be tempted, but there are not many people who can spend money to buy a house at once, so I think
Let Wudi Qianzhuang develop a loan business, for example, one hundred thousand guan, and if you borrow it for five years, the interest will be about 20,000 guan. The specific method of making money needs to be discussed carefully with the managers."
Li Yuanshu's eyes lit up: "What do you mean, husband, if you take out the money from our treasury, money will make money?"
"That's right!"
"It's great. Eight hundred houses are worth a lot of money. As long as half of the people borrow from us, Wudi Bank will make a lot of money." Li Yuanshu started to make calculations like a little money addict.
Du He hugged Li Yuanshu with his left hand and Li Lizhi with his right hand, and said, "Let's talk about these things tomorrow. Let your husband accompany you tonight..."
"The husband is bad!"
"Husband, no, it's not dark yet."
"Hate……"
…
Everything was as Du He expected.
Morning the next day.
Li Er announced at the time that the entire area around Hu County and Anhu Avenue would be incorporated into Chang'an City as the outer city of Chang'an.
In response, Li Er did not give the ministers a chance to object, and directly asked Zhongshu Sheng to draft an edict and announce it to the world.
After the dynasty dispersed, all the ministers walked out of Tai Chi Hall one after another.
Yuchi Gong walked forward swaggeringly, humming a ditty in his mouth.
Everyone looked at it and wondered what happy event had happened to Yuchi Gong.
Dai Zhou stepped forward and asked: "Master Yuchi, you are in a good mood today!"
Yuchi Gong laughed: "I bought a house, of course I can't suppress my mood."
"Buy a house?"
"That's right, I went to Hu County yesterday and saw that your Dai Mansion was magnificent and very comfortable to live in. On a whim, I also bought a house. By the way, it's near your Dai Mansion. Mr. Dai, I will buy it in the future.
Please take good care of me!" Yuchi said with a smile, feeling very happy.
The people around him all showed curious expressions.
Who doesn't know that among the civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty, the first poorest person was Wei Zheng, and the second poorest person was Yuchi Gong.
Wei Zheng does it because he really doesn’t care about money.
Yu Chigong did not know how to manage money.
Now, Yu Chigong can actually buy a house?
Where does the money come from?
Dai Zhou couldn't help but ask: "Master Yuchi, the house in Hu County is not cheap. Are you serious about buying it? You don't have enough money, right?"
Yuchi Gong waved his hand nonchalantly: "No money."
"What?"
Everyone was stunned.
Yu Chigong said: "I borrowed a sum of money from Wudi Bank and paid it off in five years. The money will be used to buy a house."
"Don't people who borrow money also have to repay it?" someone couldn't help but ask.
But Yuchi Gong didn't care: "Repay it? Let's do it in five years. Why should I pay back the money I borrowed based on my ability? Let's not talk about it anymore. I want to see my house first. I will move in a few days. You all will have to pay it back."
Come on, it’s okay if you don’t follow the etiquette, I will never care..."
With that said, Yuchi Gong walked briskly.
Everyone around looked at Hou Junji and asked, "Master Hou, is what Master Yuchi said true?"
Hou Junji nodded: "It's true, I was at the scene...and I also bought a house..."
