Chapter 914 The Rising Sun (1)

After hearing Wanli's words, Yang Junmin was shocked first, and then calmed down again. How could Rishenglong be so cautious about such a matter of life-threatening matter? Regarding Huilian's vaults across the country, Rishenglong checked and posted accounts one by one. After confirming that the account and the actual situation were consistent, and then sealed them with the Dongchang separately, how could any problem occur?

But Wanli's next words made him realize what shamelessness is: "It's like this. The soldiers guarding the vault actually stole themselves and stole the vault in Shanghai. It was too late when they discovered it. Of course, I have ordered the investigation strictly, and I hope to give you an explanation soon."

This is just a lie with your eyes open. Tens of millions of taels of silver are required to pull out with a car, and Rishenglong people are guarding at the door. How could they not see it?

Yang Junmin immediately rushed blood, and his fists were clenched tightly in his sleeves, but he was worthy of being Yang Bo's son. Although he was only in his forties, he was already well aware of the way to withstand retreat. He quickly suppressed his anger and figured out the reason...

At the beginning, there was nothing happened to Rishenglong in the search for Huilian number. When they received the invitation to take over Huilian number, they sent auditors to intervene. However, the attitudes of Rishenglong and Dongchang must be completely opposite. They hoped to swallow a complete Huilian number, including personnel and funds, to the maximum extent. Only in this way can they strengthen themselves without being dragged down by the burden.

However, after the audit, it was shocking. The vault of Huilian No. was already moved by the Dongchang government offices in various places in charge of the search. After asking, the people in Dongchang insisted that it was like this and had nothing to do with them. It was just that the stupid eunuchs didn't know that there were still books to prove the existence of funds, so after Rishenglong obtained all books, he accurately calculated the gap between the accounts and the actual accounts. He also clearly told the emperor that if the accounts and funds were too far apart, they would not acquire Huilian.

Wanli also knew the reason was wrong. He was angry with the eunuch for the first time because he didn't know about the stolen vault. Moreover, if Rishenglong did not take over, Huilian would be destroyed, and his plan to do it once and for all would be lost, so he issued an order to investigate the matter severely.

But the emperor could not hide everything from the eunuchs. The eunuchs had already colluded with each other. Guests were responsible for extinguishing the fire for the emperor. The eunuchs from the East Factory also admitted their mistakes and said that they wanted to give the emperor a surprise, so they quietly transferred some money. They did not want to backfire and almost messed up the emperor's major affairs. Soon, the money transported away was sent back to the warehouse, and after counting it by Rishenglong, they posted a seal, which prevented the negotiation from going bankrupt.

Under the eunuchs' sweet words, Wanli quickly became angry... Of course, this was because the emperor could not find other trustworthy lackeys. So he not only forgave the eunuchs who were doing things, but also felt that their actions were reasonable. If it weren't for my actions, you would never have thought of eating Huilianqi in your eighth lifetime. Why would you swallow the billions of Huilianqi's property in vain if you didn't pay any money?

Thinking of this, Wanli became more righteous. The method he adopted was also very domineering. Since he could not hide it secretly, I would just rob it. So as soon as the contract was signed, he would have a problem. The intention was self-evident - I want the three largest treasuries for remuneration, do you give it to me, right?

Yang Junmin also knew that Rishenglong took advantage of the Huilian number, so he could give the emperor some benefits. However, the Shanghai general vault with more than 50 million taels of deposited silver was the largest of the Huilian number, accounting for one-third of the deposited silver, which was not something he could agree to.

Seeing that he was silent for a long time, Wanli lowered his face and said unhappily: "Huilianhao has more than 1,000 warehouses across the country, and the Dongchang Factory has insufficient staff, so there is inevitably a negligence. Is Rishenglong unwilling to bear this loss? What is the difference between this and the damn Huilianhao?!"

The emperor actually took Huilianqian and threatened Rishenglong. One sentence made Yang Junmin pale. In front of the bloody corpse of Huilianqian, he could not believe in the emperor's determination and finally knew what it meant to be a scam with a tiger.

"What the emperor said is very good," weighed the pros and cons, Yang Junmin lowered his head and said, "I will definitely bring the words to Rishenglong and try my best to convince them to agree."

"It's not about trying to convince, but just a notice!" Wanli said domineeringly: "The contract has been signed, do Rishenglong want to return!"

"Yes, I only made a notice..." Yang Junmin's head lowered.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yang Junmin rushed to Taiyuan for 800 miles, giving the major shareholders who were looking forward to celebrate the celebration.

"This is simply a naked robbery!" The shareholders of course were furious. But the Shanxi merchants would not lose their minds because of their anger. They knew very well that the emperor's sealing and banning of Huilianhao was originally a robbery with open fire sticks, and they were also an accomplice involved in the robbery, so it was normal to encounter black and black.

Fortunately, the emperor only ate one-third of the cash, and there were more than 100 million taels of cash there, which made them endure the pain and barely accept it... Of course, how to make the decision in the end depends on the boss.

The founder and largest shareholder of Rishenglong are Zhang Yunling. He is extremely low-key and has little reputation among the people. However, among the huge businessmen, he is the richest man in Shanxi and the leader of Shanxi merchants who everyone respects. It is under his wise leadership that Rishenglong can escape danger from the traps set by Huilian again and again, and ultimately forcing the other party to accept peace and form a situation where two heroes coexist.

Zhang Yunling’s biggest dream is to one day annex Huilianhao and unify China’s financial industry. But unfortunately, he will never see this day because he had passed away two years ago…

Before his death, although Zhang Yunling was 70 years old, she was in good spirits and strong. However, after a banquet one day, the old man suddenly felt a discomfort in his abdomen and couldn't help but reach out to rub it. Unexpectedly, the more he rubbed it, the more he felt, and the more he felt, the harder he felt.

When the maid and his wife heard the movement, they hurried over to check it out. They saw the old man rubbing his stomach like crazy and rolling all over the ground. The women were immediately panicked and went over to help him up.

But the old man looked like a crazy tiger, and no one could get close to him. He could only watch him snatch his belly with both hands... When he called his strong servant, his belly had already been scratched and his intestines were pulled out.

The authentic intestines were rotten and they died suddenly...

The cause of Zhang Yunling's death was strange, and the death was terrifying. Many people said that this was the unjust soul of the old man and his son Shen Ge, who had been seeking his life, but after searching, he could not find the murderer, so he could only use the boss, chef and friend of the restaurant as a scapegoat. The sudden death of the richest man in Shanxi had two inevitable consequences. One was that Zhang Siwei, who was about to recover, failed because he was Zhang Siwei's biological father, and the other was that the position of Rishenglong's boss was vacant. These two consequences eventually led to one result, that is, Zhang Siwei, who maintained his influence, took over as Rishenglong's boss.

It was Zhang Siwei who conspired with the emperor to embezzle Huilian.

If he hadn't repeatedly advocated it in his letter to the emperor and bribed all the eunuchs and concubines around Wanli, the emperor wouldn't have made such a big decision.

But everything has its advantages and disadvantages. It is precisely because he is the boss of Rishenglong that Wanli made unreasonable requests like he did back then, without worrying that he would not agree.

Wanli did not read the wrong person. After comforting all the shareholders, Zhang Siweiming's accounting department calculated to see if he could make up for this loss. Obviously, he was ready to suffer this loss.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The bright and dazzling lights are brilliant, the food and wine are delicious, and the food is rich. This is Boss Zhang's life of worry.

But there was not much joy on his face. A Koba cigarette made of top-quality tobacco looks thin and long because of the addition of Hetian jade cigarette mouth. The snow-white smoke lingered around his face, making his expression look very solemn.

Wang Chongyi, the big shopkeeper of Rishenglong, sat on his side and whispered to the accountants' calculation results: "Although fifty million taels are more than 50 million taels, it cannot crush us. And even if the 50 million taels are missing, Huilianhao is above the capital security line. We should make up for it from other places. With its profitability, even if it is affected by the change of ownership, it can be paid off in at most two years. Even if it encounters the worst situation, it can still sell some of the stocks to make up for this."

"So, did my uncle insist on the acquisition?" Although he was very willing, Zhang Siwei still said calmly.

"Yes." Wang Chongyi whispered: "I can't bear to let my children go to trap the wolf. In the future, our family will dominate. Today, the emperor will earn ten or a hundred times the profit." He paused: "And if you want to avoid repeating the mistakes of Huilianhao, you must become the only bank in the Ming Dynasty. Only in this way can you master the lifeline of this country and make the emperor unable to shake us!"

"Well said!" Zhang Siwei nodded, and finally showed a smile on his face and said, "But everything has not been calculated, we will lose first. Once the Royal Bank opens the door, it will definitely face great financial pressure. My uncle still has to do his best to prepare."

"Of course I'm ready for this." Wang Chongyi nodded and said, "Risenlong is already trying his best to raise funds. If you open the door beautifully, you will soon build confidence."

"It's good if my uncle has confidence." Zhang Siwei asked, "How much is Rishenglong's cash now?"

When asked about this, Wang Chongyi's heart was shocked. Zhang Siwei had already checked the account and he should have known how much cash there is. Now he asked, didn't he ask clearly? He thought to himself, but he didn't dare to neglect: "You haven't read the account, it's always around 80 million taels."

The original deposit of Huilian Number was about 150 million taels. It is already very good that the daily upward throne can reach 80 million taels.

However, he quickly understood the purpose of Zhang Siwei's question, obviously he realized that there were defects in Rishenglong's internal control, and the misappropriation of silver accounts in various places was quite serious. So he changed his words a little embarrassedly: "If necessary, it can be mobilized by 80% or 90%.

After all, the other party was his uncle, so Zhang Siwei couldn't speak too lightly. He thought to himself that although eighty million is not enough, sixty or 70 million should be available, and it would be not worry about placing ten or twelve taels of silver. Having said that, he asked again: "If you can't dispatch it, what are your uncle's plans?"

Wang Chongyi was guilty and was afraid that Zhang Siwei would ask again, so he would reveal his feelings when he asked the pan-ku. He didn't even think about the meaning of this, so he could only take a lot of money and say: "I won't be able to dispatch it. I know the income and expenditure situation of each province, and I can withdraw money at critical moments." In order to reassure Zhang Siwei, he added: "There are often tens of millions of taels of silver in the two treasuries in Shanxi and Yangzhou."

This is to cover up the shopkeepers of the following sections, use false transactions and embezzle deposits for personal gain. Although Wang Chongyi did not do this himself, he would naturally have to cover them up with filial piety.

There is no need to be a heavy hammer for the drum. Zhang Siwei thought he was hinting and admitted that he had misappropriated the money. If necessary, he would find a way to make up for it, so he would feel relieved.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Zhang Siwei finally made the decision that the contract was still valid, and it only pushed the opening time of Royal Bank one month later to ensure that funds could be raised and through the initial difficult period.

But what he unexpectedly expected was that the panic-ridden provinces of the two capitals did not settle down because of the establishment of the Royal Bank. The debts of Huilianhao were in charge. Instead, rumors spread that the emperor had emptied most of the Huilianhao vault, leaving only one Rishenglong and one empty shell.

It is also said that the remaining funds of Huilianhao have been shipped to Rishenglong one after another, privately making up for the shortcomings of the shopkeepers. Now, Huilianhao has nothing left except stores that cannot be moved away...

Rumors must be supported to gain trust. But people from all over the world have seen with their own eyes that Dongchang drove big trucks into Huilian numbers, and when they came out, they were obviously full of loads. Although it seemed that Dongchang had pulled things in later, who knows if it was a sneak attack and a replacement for gold and silver for stones?

This statement is very destructive because everyone can see that this is a big reason. Why do they store their money in the bank? Isn’t it just for safety and peace of mind? How can depositors feel at ease now that such a strange situation exists?

But Huilian No. 1 is gone, and everyone's money is in the hands of Rishenglong. At least they can still admit it now. So although everyone is worried, they are always worried that it will be too much forcing Rishenglong to turn against each other. So they all endure it together and wait and see before talking.
