Chapter 410 Opening

In fact, Li Anran originally planned to name these two money banks he opened. But then he thought about it, there were too many dynasties in history. If he went to the Song Dynasty one day, wouldn’t he have to change his name?

The Celestial Empire is different. No matter which dynasty, it can only be established as the world's number one country, then the title of Celestial Empire can be completely continued. Even if the country is defeated, this title will become a kind of "face".

Just like some countries in modern time and space.

Li Anran was very satisfied with that, if it was wrong to open a bank in Datang, it should be a money shop. There was no need to open a money shop like modern time and space. Just having enough strength and financial resources alone would require the approval of the state. There was no need to register, and you could open it whenever you wanted.

In fact, Li Anran has always known that if he really wants to make a lot of money, he will not be as quick as running a bank any business. Especially in ancient times like the Tang Dynasty, whether it is a commoner, a wealthy businessman or a nobleman, he would have to pay a fee to store money in a bank.

Because in all ancient consciousness, it is reasonable to store money in a money shop for easy withdrawal, and it is a very reasonable thing to charge some "custody fees" in the money shop. Of course, such money shops did not appear in the early days of Zhenguan.

At this time, only gold and silver shops and pawn shops have initial functions. Generally speaking, if the gold and silver in private hands want to be converted into copper coins, they will go to these gold and silver shops or pawn shops for exchange, and the exchanger still suffers.

However, although Li Anran knew from the beginning that it was very profitable to engage in the financial investment industry, especially in the current era of the Tang Dynasty, it was still in a blank state in this regard. Even if he couldn't eat a fat man in one go, he could still gain huge gains.

But I think it's right to think so, and Li Anran also feels that he's right. But if you do this, you have to face a problem, that is, such a great benefit. Without sufficient strength, how can you ensure that your interests will not be damaged?

It was precisely because of this issue that Li Anran did not start this business from the beginning. As for why he is doing it now, haha... it is not because after having the multi-functional exploration spacecraft and his own superpowers, his strength is already strong enough.

Considering that my stall is getting bigger and bigger, even if I step up the arrangements for purchasing and cultivating personnel, there are still not many people who can use it at the moment, and it also requires some running-in period. This time, the money house only opened one in Chang'an and Luoyang.

In order to take care of Chang'an City's unique status in the Tang Dynasty and the face of a certain person, Li Anran not only planned to open Chang'an's money house first, but also planned to use it as the headquarters of the bank. At least it was an open headquarters.

On the eighth day of the third month, according to the almanac, this day is very suitable for opening a business.

On the most prosperous street in the west city of Chang'an City, there is a row of shops with the best terrain. It was completely wrapped in thick bamboo poles and unknown green thick cloth more than a month ago, and there were many large banners hanging from top to bottom on the side facing the street.

The contents composed of the big words on the banner are all in plain language, which clearly states what the place will be transformed into. At the same time, what aspects of business will this mysterious People's Bank of China engage in, etc.

Of course, due to the limited space, the content on the banner only plays an outline role. As for the specific content, it is very simple to know if you want to know. For those who are rich, you can listen to the explanation in the commercial channel of Changan Radio Station. As for those who have no money, you can also spend two copper coins to buy a Changan Daily and turn to the commercial page to understand it yourself.

Even if you really are reluctant to spend this money, or you are illiterate or have no understanding of it at all, you can go to the small teahouses in Chang'an City to listen to the original storytellers showing off the fresh words and content.

As these contents became the hot topics in Chang'an City recently, opening an account, savings, transferring, remittance, regular, current, etc., originally only appeared in modern time and space terms related to banks, and began to be well-known to more and more people.

As Li Anran expected, for the management fees for savings, transfer and remittance fees, etc., from high-ranking officials to ordinary people, not only no one questioned why these fees were charged, but the few people who were familiar with each other said whether the one-percent fee was too small.

Regarding this, Li Anran naturally could not say that one percent of the cost is actually a way out for the future competition. Instead, he found several high-sounding reasons for himself. It doesn’t matter whether others believe it or not, but he just needs to believe it.

At 5 o'clock in the morning that day, the first quiver of the dawn drum was first beaten on the city tower of Chengtian Gate, the main gate of Tai Chi Palace, followed by drum towers on the north-south streets.

As the drum sound spread from the inside out, the gates of the palace, the imperial office area, the gates of the imperial city, and the gates of each cottage were opened one by one.

At the same time, in the city, Taoist temples will also ring the morning bells in dozens of temples. The sound of passionate drums and the deep and distant bells intertwined, awakening the entire Chang'an city and welcoming the morning sun that gushed out from the eastern sky.

Just when most of the people living in Chang'an City were awakened by the first wave of drums in their sleep, then slowly got up and put on their clothes, washed their faces and combed their hair, had breakfast at home, or walked directly to the entrance of the shop, the row of shops, which were originally wrapped in green cloth, had been uncovered with the cooperation of a large number of people wearing styles that were obviously different from traditional clothes.

Although at this time, there was almost no passenger flow on the street, there were already a friend in the neighbors and shops across the street. So, in less than a while, the abnormal movement here was discovered.

After the green cloth was completely removed, the brackets built with thick bamboo poles were removed. A large number of people and hands cooperated with each other in an orderly manner and just right manner, making the work go very smoothly.

After all the annoying things were cleared out in a short time, the shopkeepers on the side of the neighbors and across the street discovered that the shape of this row of shops had become unrecognizable compared to before.

In fact, in terms of the building shape alone, the headquarters of the People's Bank of China did not deviate from the style of the Tang Dynasty. However, some details have changed a lot. For example, this finger house not only has three stories high, but also has not a traditional wooden structure.

Although during the Tang Dynasty, those who were wealthy from home had already used brick and stone structures to build their own houses, the main structure of the house was still mainly wood. However, from the appearance of the People's Bank of China, it is rare to see wooden structures appear.

Fortunately, no matter what, whenever you see this People's Bank of China, which has long become a hot topic in Chang'an City, at first sight, almost everyone except the ignorant children can feel a sense of majesty that is difficult to explain, unclear, but does exist.

As the outside of this already connected building was quickly cleaned up, the originally half-closed door was completely exposed. Then I saw some people wearing uniforms who were said to be wearing four big words, "Daji," in the empty space in front of the door.

"Good guy, this is firecracker."

"Isn't it? It is said that this thing is much louder than some firecrackers."

"The last time the tavern at Qianjiekou opened, it used this thing, and the noise was so loud."

"What do you know? What is scary or not? This firecracker is said to have a lot to do with Taoist thunder and fire magic. It has a very powerful effect on eliminating evil and can also attract wealth. Now, no one can open a business or not, that's shameless."

"Yes, yes, this thing is just too expensive. It's not cost-effective to spend so much money just to hear it."

"Bad! Such thoughts are destined to be a poor person for the rest of your life. As long as your business can prosper in the future, what is this little money?"
