Chapter 259

usury!

For ordinary people, they are familiar with usury. After all, they have always believed that usury is the most common method to exploit the people. In fact, it is also not unfamiliar with high-ranking officials. Of course, some of them are released, and some are naturally borrowed.

Among the people who borrow, there are all kinds of people.

Some people borrow money, but it only needs it for a while. In fact, most people do this. In the past, there were only money shops and merchants in Beijing, but now there is another "Yulong Bank". Compared with money shops, although Yulong Bank has just been established for less than a year, it has become famous because of silver bills. In less than a year, it is generally known that Yulong's silver bills are more real than real gold. Of course, Longyu's loan interest is far lower than money shops and merchants, and are usually the first choice for the loans of Shangshen in Beijing.

On that day, when the snow was about to fall, a group of riders stopped in front of the bank gate on the street of West Chang'an. The man who jumped off the horse was about 30 years old. He jumped off the horse very skillfully, and then threw the cloak and whip to the entourage who had just dismounted.

"For you, then."

The man following him quickly took the cloak and horse whip, and followed him respectfully into the bank. When he entered the bank, he looked here specially, and his eyes flashed by a brilliant flash.

As soon as the staff in the bank saw the people who were dressed in extraordinary clothes and the entourage behind them was wearing a waist knife, they immediately felt that the person was extraordinary, so they met him.

"This young man..."

Without waiting for the staff to be polite, the visitor said.

"I want to meet you Manager Qian."

As he spoke, Li Rusong took out a famous post.

"It was Qi Junmen who introduced me to me."

When I saw that the famous post was sent by the manager, this kind of business card was not available to ordinary people. I could already show that the other party’s identity was unusual by just looking at this business card. The staff quickly greeted him enthusiastically.

"Sir, please follow me upstairs."

Then she led Li Rusong and his party upstairs, and the staff went into the house to ask for instructions. When the door opened again, Qian Lei, who was greeting him in person, said with a smile.

"Oh, I never thought that it was the Major General who visited him personally. If any major general had sent him to him, he would just send someone to inform him. Why do you need the Major General to come to him personally?"

Qian Lei's politeness made Li Rusong stunned. Before he came, he obviously did not expect the other party to be so polite. So he said quickly.

"We know each other?"

"I heard of the famous name for a long time."

Qian Lei said enthusiastically.

"Even in the capital, I have heard that the Li family in Liaodong are all tiger generals. I know that if there were no generals such as Li Junmen and Major General, how could there be peace in Liaodong?"

Be kind, Qian Lei invited him into the manager's room, and then ordered the staff to greet the entourage to wait in the waiting room beside him.

Qian Lei asked tentatively after pouring tea for Li Rusong.

"I wonder what the Major General came to despise his despise?"

In fact, as soon as Li Rusong entered the city yesterday, Qian Lei heard about them and knew that many merchants in the capital were making their plans.

Qi Jiguang and Li Chengliang are both northern walls of the Ming Dynasty and have always guarded the border of the Ming Dynasty. However, the difference between the Mongols is that Li Chengliang faces Jurchens but they produce rare things, such as ginseng, east beads, marten fur and other furs are valuable things. Because Li Chengliang is in a remote relationship, he will send his son to Beijing to give gifts every New Year. This gift is not only sent to the cabinet ministers, but many officials in the capital are also visiting, and the merchants are staring at the gifts brought to Beijing by the Li family.

That's more than a hundred good things in cars!

"I don't tell lies in front of the real person. On the way to the capital, I paid a visit to General Qi. He specifically advised me that if I needed to use money, I could apply for a loan from you. You know, for so many years, all the merchants in this capital have treated our Li family as pigs..."

Li Rusong sneered, his words full of dissatisfaction with the businessman.

"Not mentioning, the things they sold to Liaodong are of high quality. Even the things I brought to the capital will be at least 30%. Yesterday, the manager of the family was looking for them on the street. Several old businesses all said that at the end of the year, the money was tight, and they had no money to buy the things I brought, but they didn't have money!"

Staring at Qian Lei, Li Rusong said without hiding it.

"But they want to reduce the price. They know that I will not stay in Beijing for a long time. They will go back at most half a month. They will have to visit many people in the past half month, but they will not be able to delay them in one day. After today, I will definitely ask them tomorrow. This thing can be at least 30% or even 50% out. It's the New Year... I want to kill pigs. I know what they think!"

When Li Rusong explained, Qian Lei just laughed but said nothing. Before he opened a bank, he knew that the Li family was famous. Who made them attack the Jurchens frequently? The eastern ball, fur, and ginseng captured each time was more than hundreds of thousands. Such a rich border general... would not be slaughtered, that is really not the nature of a businessman.

"What does the Major General mean?"

"I want to borrow money from you and get things done first."

When the words were finished, Li Rusong took out an egg-sized east bead and put it on the table.

"I know, the rules of your bank are that if you don't have a mortgage, you will definitely not apply for a loan, so I want to mortgage your Yulong Bank!"

In previous years, when Li Rusong entered Beijing, he swallowed his anger, but this year, he didn't want to endure it anymore. After all, he had been exploited for so many years, but now he has the opportunity, so he naturally doesn't want to be regarded as a "New Year pig" by the businessmen in the capital as usual.

"This is……"

"This is Dongzhu. Such an egg-sized Dongzhu is worth at least a thousand taels of silver. Manager Qian, for the first time you and I have met, I am not respectful to me."

What a "thin" gift!

First, he looked at Dongzhu on the table, and then looked at Li Rusong. Qian Lei knew that this was the reason why the Li family was not over. He was nothing more... he bribed the court officials with a lot of money! The court officials would naturally give him a look.

"Manager Qian, don't worry, I will definitely not make it difficult for you. Whether it is the fur, ginseng or Dongzhu I brought, it is rare in Beijing. You don't have to worry about having no place to sell it in Beijing. As long as you keep these days, they will naturally come to buy things at that time. After all, in winter, you have to use fur, and ginseng is coming to the crowd!"

After saying that, seeing that he seemed to be hesitating, Li Rusong emphasized again.

"I only borrow 200,000 taels and repay the loan for half a month. I will give you the highest interest and give you enough benefits for two months, how about it?"
