Shortly afterwards, many stores under Fengyu Trading Company were sealed and a fine of nearly one million taels was issued!

Such a huge amount was unbearable even for the president of the Jiangzhou Chamber of Commerce.

Lu Fengyu had some status and connections, and he sought out many officials, and even found the door of Liu Xiwen, the governor of Jiangzhou, but no one saw him and he was rejected.

As for Qian Dafu?

It's even more impossible to see.

With no other choice, Lu Fengyu had no choice but to find ways to pay the fine.

For this reason, he also sold several shops and other property. Such confiscation greatly damaged the vitality of Fengyu Company and led to its decline.

A few days later, Lu Fengyu dumped himself as the president of the Jiangzhou Chamber of Commerce.

When someone saw him, he looked as old as ever.

This result is disappointing and a wake-up call for others.

But it's not over yet.

In the next half month, several wealthy businessmen in Jiangzhou were punished. Some were imprisoned without even having a chance to pay fines, and all their property was confiscated, leading to the end of their lives.

Of course, this is not to impose a crime, but to punish according to the law.

As Qian Dafu said, no one can withstand the interrogation.

A big business earthquake is coming.

It also made them finally understand what it means to overestimate one's own capabilities. There will be no good outcome in confronting the imperial court. Only by adapting can one be stable.

During this period, with the support of Qian Dafu and the government, another group of new businessmen emerged, and it may not take long to replace those evil businessmen.

Qian Dafu knows this well.

This is what he learned from His Majesty, to fight in batches and pull in batches.

All merchants in Lin'an no longer boycotted treasure banknotes, and strictly enforced the rules to buy and sell with treasure banknotes.

Lin'an Prefecture promulgated new regulations, secretly violated them, and punished them with serious crimes. The black market also suffered a severe blow, and many people were exiled for beheading...

Under this method, the direction of the wind immediately changed, and Bao Chao was no longer demoted and returned to his previous position.

The redemption limit order has not been abolished, but no one has mentioned it.

Qian Dafu's goal was initially achieved.

Currency is separated from its own value, but returns to its essence and becomes a transaction symbol.

Lin'an is the place with the most prosperous commerce and trade in the country. As long as Baobao can truly take root here, it will gradually spread to the Yangtze and Huaihe Rivers, the southeastern coast, and then to the whole country until Baobao is completely accepted by people. Then this new currency system will be

can be stabilized.

It will greatly promote currency circulation and Daning's commerce and trade will be more prosperous.

This is Guan Ning's purpose.

Accumulating silicon steps leads to a thousand miles.

The first step has been taken. I believe that the situation he wants to see is only a matter of time...

Lin'an, Daning Bank.

Semicolon shopkeeper Zheng Xiong reported the situation to Qian Dafu.

He had a happy face.

At present, treasure banknotes have returned to stability, and people are no longer anxious to redeem them. After this turmoil, the value of treasure banknotes has been established and has become stronger.

He admired Qian Dafu's methods.

No wonder he can sit in the position of chief shopkeeper and win the trust of His Majesty. This level is extraordinary.

"It's pretty good so far, but you can't relax. You have to understand that everyone pursues profit. This is nature that cannot be changed."

"clear."

Finished talking about the business.

Zheng Xiong also felt slightly relaxed. He asked again: "A few days ago, there were rumors that some people were spreading rumors. It must be some evil businessmen behind the scenes. Why are so few people arrested for this?"

"You are very attentive."

Qian Dafu glanced at him and said calmly: "Because there is still a net that has not been collected, I am waiting for them to come in."

The matter of promoting the treasure banknote was almost done, but due to some unforeseen events, he had to stay for a few more days.

Luxury fragrance is one of them.

Qian Dafu knew that this was a matter of special concern to His Majesty.

He shouldn't be in charge, but when it comes to business, he has to.

He has been investigating secretly for some time.

Shexiang has been secretly spread in the southern area of ​​Jianghuai for a long time. Although it is not widespread, its scale is not small.

Your Majesty hates this deeply, so Qian Dafu is naturally attracted to him.

He has mastered several hidden clues, including illegal businessmen, such as Chen Qu from Yongfu Chamber of Commerce.

It's easy to catch him, and it's also easy to hit his line.

In fact, the government has never stopped suppressing these illegal businessmen, but the inflow has not stopped.

This shows that treating the symptoms does not address the root cause.

Qian Dafu wanted to solve the root cause, so he took a long-term view and caught big fish...

Thoughts flashed through.

He didn't want to tell Zheng Xiong this, so he asked again: "I heard that many Wei merchants have come to Daning recently, and many Daning merchants have gone to Wei to do business?"

"yes!"

Zheng Xiong said: "Since the Wei State lifted the border blockade and reduced the tariff by 50%, it has attracted a large number of merchants from our country to do business."

Tariffs are reduced by 50%, which means that profit margins are greatly increased, which is a great temptation.

Similarly, when Wei merchants come to Daning, merchants will also be exempted from the tax when they return.

Wei merchants also had to pay taxes when passing through the country's customs, which greatly promoted the development of commerce between the two countries...

Zheng Xiong said cautiously: "Recently, there has been another trend in the market, saying that Da Ning does not tolerate merchants, which has also caused many merchants to flee to Wei."

One wave has not subsided, and another wave has arisen.

Why are there always these unfavorable rumors in the public? Maybe they come out spontaneously, but is there no one behind it to add fuel to the flames?

Qian Dafu was keenly aware of the complexity behind this.

These circumstances should be reported to His Majesty.

Perhaps it involves a struggle between the two countries.

"I'm going to the Commerce Department."

Qian Dafu stood up and wanted to know more about these situations...

at the same time.

Chen Qu also came to the hidden courtyard to find Teng Jian to report.

"Qian Dafu took action. Many businessmen were hit, and I was not immune. I paid a fine of nearly 400,000 taels."

Calculated in terms of silver, silver is very valuable.

Ordinary people have little money to spend, and most of them are copper plates and broken silver.

This made Chen Qu very sad, but he was also very fortunate that he paid the fine and finally escaped from the disaster.

He knew exactly what he had done.

Really speaking, beheading the capital would be an easy task.

Teng Jian smiled and said: "It's not much, I paid the money for you."

"Thank you, shopkeeper Teng."

This is also the reason why he has been following Teng Jian. He is rich and generous to him.

Chen Qu asked doubtfully: "Why do you look so happy? Our plan to boycott Baochao failed."

"It's a failure."

Teng Jian said: "Qian Dafu does have some abilities. Daning Baochao has taken a crucial step, and it will take time to continue to develop. But it doesn't matter. I have reported this situation back to the country. Your Majesty will definitely follow suit when he learns of it."

, In fact, Wei State's developed commerce is more suitable for Daning Baochao. Once implemented, it will not take long and it will be very popular. Whatever Daning does will be in vain."

Listen to these words.

Chen Qu echoed: "That is indeed something worth being happy about."

"No."

Teng Jian denied: "My happiness is another matter."

"What is that?"

"Qian Dafu wanted to protect his treasure, but he bullied merchants to harm their interests, making it difficult for Daning merchants to survive. Didn't this force them to go to Wei?"
