Changsun Wuji's words put smiles on everyone's faces.
Chen Shuda clapped his hands and said: "Master Changsun, how wonderful, I really didn't expect that you have already arranged it in advance. In this case, I, Mrs. Chen, are willing to pay 500,000 yuan."
Li Daozong said: "I am willing to pay 500,000 yuan!"
Gao Xingcheng said: "Before I came, my father told me that this time is the best opportunity to bring down Du He. Our Gao family is willing to pay 700,000 yuan."
Changsun Wuji looked at Zheng Jing and Wang Min.
These two men were from noble families, but they were the richest among the people present.
The two looked at each other and Zheng Jing said: "In that case, our two families will each contribute one million yuan."
Changsun Wuji nodded with satisfaction: "Then, our Changsun family will come up with the remaining 1.3 million yuan. Everyone, let's work separately and collect the money as quickly as possible.
yes."
"Listen to Lord Changsun!"
"Lord Changsun, please rest assured that in order to bring down Du He, we will do our best and do whatever it takes."
…
A few days later.
The Changsun clan and other six noble clans’ five million coins were all collected.
Three people, Zheng Jing, Wang Min, and Gao Xiuxian, personally escorted the five million yuan to Tongzhou and deposited it at the Tongzhou branch of Wudi Bank.
Zhang Qian, the shopkeeper of the Tongzhou branch, was frightened.
Because although the common currency has been well promoted in Tongzhou, no big traders have ever come to trade it.
Now it's five million dollars, which is simply appalling.
Tongzhou doesn't have so many people's coins to exchange.
Zhang Qian was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, circling around.
At this time, a little shopkeeper next to him said hurriedly: "Shopkeeper, people are waiting outside for our reply now. If we don't go out in a few more days, these people will think that our Invincible Bank is incompetent, and they will probably laugh at us.
Fan, it doesn’t matter, but if the people know about it and think that Wudi Bank is not good, I’m afraid it will be very difficult to implement people’s currency in the future.”
Zhang Qian paced back and forth, at a loss as to what to do: "But, what should we do now?"
Not far away, a young man said: "Shopkeeper, doesn't Mr. Fang happen to be in Tongzhou? Send someone quickly to invite him. He is the disciple of the Prince Consort, and he will definitely be able to find a solution."
Zhang Qian clapped his hands and suddenly realized: "Yes, hurry up, hurry up, go and invite Mr. Fang."
…
As the main person in charge of Wudi Bank's promotion of Renminbi, Fang Yiai took people to various state capitals that promoted Renminbi to conduct inspections, collect problems, sum up experience, and go back to report to Du He.
He arrived in Tongzhou yesterday. Before he could remember to check the situation in Tongzhou carefully, someone sent by Zhang Qian called him to the Tongzhou branch.
Fang Yiai was also surprised when she heard that someone wanted to redeem five million yuan.
After all, Tongzhou is not Chang'an, and there don't seem to be many rich people here. How could there be such a big deal?
When they arrived at the branch, they saw Zhang Qian and others looking anxious.
Zhang Qian came up to him and said, "I've seen Young Master Fang. I shouldn't have disturbed your rest. But something happened suddenly. Someone suddenly wanted to exchange five million guan for the common people's currency. But the common people's currency in Tongzhou was only 300,000 guan."
Mr. Fang, what do you think this should be like? Otherwise, we will reject him directly."
Fang Yiai sat down and waved his hand: "The teacher once warned me that the most important thing when promoting the people's currency is integrity, so that the people can trust it. If the people don't trust Wudi Bank, then the people's currency will come to an end. Now, if
Someone brings five million guan, and if we shut him out, if other people know about it, or if it is spread by someone who is interested, wouldn't it cause even greater losses?"
"Then this..."
Fang Yiai said calmly: "It doesn't matter, the teacher has already anticipated this. When I left Chang'an, the teacher gave me a batch of special people's coins. I thought it was useless at the time. Now it seems that the teacher has anticipated all this in advance.
.”
As he spoke, he took out a wad of RMB coins from his sleeve, took out a dozen of them, and handed them to Zhang Qian.
Zhang Qian took it over and took a look and found that it was not an ordinary people's coin. The smallest face value was one hundred thousand guan.
There are 100,000 guan, 200,000 guan, and 500,000 guan.
The total of more than a dozen pieces is exactly 5 million yuan.
These common people's coins look similar to those of One Duhe and One Prince, but if you look closely, you will find the differences.
First of all, there is the seal of Wudi Bank on both the front and back, as well as the autograph of Li Yuanshu, the head of Wudi Bank.
Furthermore, these large denomination common people coins have more complex patterns and more exquisite production, which also means that they are more difficult to counterfeit.
Fang Yiai ordered; "Shopkeeper Zhang, just exchange these common people's coins for that person, and remember to leave a mark on them. These common people's coins have one hundred and twenty kinds of anti-counterfeiting marks. Now I give you thirty
It’s enough to plant…”
Fang Yiai made some arrangements, then got up and left.
Zhang Qian was surprised and said: "Master Fang, are you not staying in Tongzhou anymore?"
Fang Yiai shook his head: "Ordinarily, I should stay in Tongzhou for a few days, but now I feel that there is something fishy about this matter, and I must go back to Chang'an and tell the teacher about it."
With that said, Fang Yiai strode out.
When they came outside, Fang Yiai immediately ordered: "Hurry up and send a letter to the teacher to let him know that someone has exchanged five million yuan for the common people."
"yes!"
"Get your horses ready and return to Chang'an immediately."
…
Chang'an City.

night.
Zhang Jian hurriedly walked into the backyard, holding a piece of paper in his hand, and stepped forward and said: "Master, there is a flying pigeon in Tongzhou delivering a message. Mr. Fang said that there is an emergency. Someone has exchanged five million yuan for the common people at the Tongzhou branch.
currency."
Du He picked up the note and read it.
Finally, he threw the note aside and turned around and asked, "Zecheng, what do you think is wrong with this matter?"
Zhang Jian shook his head: "Master, there seems to be no problem. Some people are willing to exchange for five million yuan. Isn't this a good thing? It means that big households are already willing to use people's currency."
Du He shook his head.
Zhang Jian is doing intelligence work and killing people, which are all fine.
But he knows nothing about economics.
Du He said with a smile: "Someone is taking action. I thought they would lie dormant for a while, but I didn't expect to take action so quickly."
Zhang Jian was shocked: "Someone wants to deal with the common currency?"
"Not bad! Zecheng, send more manpower to keep an eye on Wudi Bank and investigate!"
"yes!"
After Zhang Jian left, Du He looked at the starry sky and sneered: "The fun is about to begin. This time, I am going to play a big trick and make you lose all your money. From now on, I will never do anything again."
No one dares to take ideas from my young master."
Is this a decisive battle?
Calculate!
Du He thought to himself.
…
Two days later.
Fang Yiai rushed to Chang'an after a long journey.
He came to Laiguo's palace to see Du He for the first time.
Entering the room, Fang Yiai looked anxious, took a sip of water, and said, "Teacher, there is something fishy about this matter, and we have to guard against it."
Du He nodded calmly: "I know that someone can't help but take action, and the person who takes action is not ordinary."
