Bureau of Anomalous Biological Countermeasures Chapter 214: Millions
"There have been many big households who have withdrawn cash in the past two days..." After Kui Bugui laughed, he continued to the steward: "Bring over the account books of the past few days, I will take a look at the old man. By the way, I will ask. Now, where does Jia Shifang, who I just met at the gate of the city, live with his family."
After the steward agreed, he left the hall. At this time, Bai Wuqiu said: "Old guy, did someone exchange fake banknotes for money? Who do you think did it, I will kill them. Dare to change our family's idea and turn against him..."
"Since I dare to issue a silver ticket, old man, it means that no one has made a fake silver ticket for the Surabaya number." Gui Bugui laughed and continued, "This is the capital, and money exchanges are a little more frequent. It's nothing. My old man just took a look, and the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver will always know who took it."
When he was talking, the old guy glanced at Wu Mian and saw that the white-haired man didn't mean to speak. Only then did he continue: "I have to go to Shao's house in the next few days. Shifang's child is still a little capable. He didn't break the law of short-lived Shao's family by himself, and even broke it for his son-in-law. Look at it now. With the appearance of three generations living together, it may not be long before four generations live together. I used to underestimate that child..."
As soon as I finished speaking, I saw the steward who had just left holding a large pile of accounts. He walked over and placed it in front of Gui Bugui, then picked up the top book, handed it to Gui Bugui, and said, "Master, this is this month's account book. The rest are silver numbers. All accounts since its establishment, but only the accounts of this family..."
"Old man, I only have one pair of eyes. You brought so many accounts, what do you think the old man thinks?" Gui Bugui smiled and took the accounts handed over by the steward, and looked at the running water for the past two days. Then I found the stub of the bank note at the back of the account, and no problem was found after the comparison.
Although there is no problem with the banknote itself, the old guy still found some problems in the accounts. Gui Bugui pointed to the stub of the bank note pasted on the back, and said to the steward: "It is the royal merchants who have withdrawn the cash in the past two days? When did these royal merchants run out of money..."
The stub is mixed with secret words, which can tell the identity of the person who saved the money. Only Guiwugui and the few great craftsmen who participated in making the silver bills knew the meaning of the secret language. According to the words above in the secret language, these silver notes were deposited by some royal merchants who purchased items for the palace in the past few years. I don't know how these royal merchants suddenly needed so much money...
However, it's not a run on these few days, it's just that a dozen royal merchants have concentrated their money. I didn't think much about returning it or not, and returned the account book to the steward. At this time, the steward said again: "I have already found out what the master asked just now. It happened that the housekeeper of the Shao family came to the silver number to ask for three hundred taels of silver, and the guys found out that the people of the Shao family lived in the south of the city. Yanpao Hutong. I heard that it was a house that Ouchi was looking for, a set of four-in-one mansion.”
"Living in Yanpao Hutong..." After taking a look at Wu Mian, Gui Bugui continued to say to the steward: "By the way, I heard that Jia Shifang came to Beijing to treat the empress dowager by order, that one What's wrong with the empress dowager? The doctor can't cure it, so I started to ask alchemists..."
"Which is the Empress Dowager's illness, the Emperor himself was killed by Nightmare Town." After seeing that there were no outsiders, the steward continued: "Many father-in-laws in the palace come here to save money, I heard what they said. After the emperor ascended the throne, he had nightmares every day, and he sweated and oozes blood every night. Every morning the bed was blood red... The imperial doctor looked at more than a dozen times and took more than a dozen prescriptions. It's getting weaker. I heard that three or four imperial doctors have been cut down. Besides Jia Shifang, there are several lamas, monks and Taoist priests in the palace now."
When he said this, the steward paused. He stole a glance at Wu Mian, then lowered his voice and continued: "I heard that the emperor originally wanted to invite two great masters, Guangren and Huohua, but they haven't been seen for decades. The other masters also I couldn't find it, and then I heard that Jia Shifang went to Nanjing to become a door-to-door son-in-law. That's why I invited him here."
After hearing the names of Guangren and Huohua, Wu Mian, who was reading "The Chronicles of the Underworld", twitched the muscles on his face. However, he didn't show any other expressions. After a pause, he turned to another page of "Mingren Zhi" and continued to stare blankly at the white paper on it.
Guibugui saw Wu Mian's reaction out of the corner of his eye, and quickly changed the subject: "You said that the emperor was tortured by a nightmare, besides sweating and bleeding every night, do you have any other symptoms? ?"
"It's hard to say." After a pause, the steward continued with a smiling face and said, "If you want to know, old man, I'll find a way to inquire."
"Going to inquire about this, then forget it." Gui Bugui smiled and continued: "We are doing silver numbers, and..." Gui Bugui didn't finish speaking when he suddenly saw The guy on the cabinet outside stood outside the hall door, and was gesturing to the steward, signaling him to go out quickly. It seemed that something unexpected happened on the cabinet, and the steward had to go out to deal with it.
Seeing that the young man was sweating profusely, Gui Bugui waved his hand at the steward and said, "Go on with your business, listen to the matter of the smoke and bubble alley, as long as it is a matter of the Shao family. It doesn't matter how big or small. Report it to us immediately. Well, if you don't go out, the little baby will cry..."
After the current steward greeted Wu Mian and Gui Bugui, he hurriedly left here. After looking at his back and walking out of the hall, Kuaibugui smiled and said, "It seems that there should be no peace in the palace. It seems that no matter what dynasty or generation this emperor is not good at..."
The old guy hadn't finished his words when he suddenly saw the steward who had just left come back again. In such a short time, dense beads of sweat appeared on the forehead that the steward had just shaved. He trotted to the side of the return, and he didn't care about anything else, and said directly: "Master, there are people outside with a silver note to withdraw money, and they will withdraw 200,000 yuan at a time..."
"200,000?" Gui Bugui understood what the steward meant. After interrupting him directly, he took the pen and paper on the table, wrote two sentences on it with his own handwriting, and then handed the note to him. The steward said, "Take it to the shop, and let them pay 300,000 taels of silver to the palace first. Leave 100,000 for emergency use here, and this account will be more than 200,000 after you have a lot of money here?"
Gui Wugui had already written the pre-adjustment note, only to find that the manager's face was still ugly. At this time, the steward said: "I know the person who took the money this time. It is the housekeeper of Prince He Shuoyi's house. He also said that we should transfer the money quickly, and take out the 200,000 taels of silver that we took away with the silver ticket. In addition, we have to borrow another 800,000 taels of silver. A full 1 million taels of silver, even our Surabaya ship can't get so much money in the capital in one day..."
"One million taels..." After Gui Bugui glanced at the steward, he even laughed and said, "You invite the steward in, I will tell him the old man. Also, take all the capital in the capital. I invite all the stewards, my old man has something to say..."
Seeing whether to return or not, he was not in a hurry. The steward guessed that he had already made up his mind. At the moment, he sent his staff to invite other stewards to come over, and at the same time he invited the steward of Prince Yi's Mansion to the front of the house.
The housekeeper who came here is a fat man who is out of account, and he is also sweating profusely at this time. Sweat soaked his clothes, but he didn't care to wipe the sweat at this time. After the fat man came in, he shouted: "Your Sishui number is also the number one business, can't you get one million taels of silver?"
"One million is not one hundred taels. It's not much, but it's not much. Give us a few days to prepare." Gui Bugui smiled and continued: "It's like Yiqin The great merits of the lord this day are not made in one or two days, but should be given a few days to make merits."
