Duan Zhigui was completely frightened by this old Taoist. He simply regarded him as a living god and treated him with respect. Ziyan Taoist also breathed a sigh of relief temporarily. To be honest, this master is not so easy to fake. He was still holding a
Pig urine.
This is the secret of his way of drinking wine from an empty cup. He puts wine into the pig urine bubble, seals the opening with wax, and holds it under his arm. When it is time to use it, he removes the wax, and then squeezes it gently.
The wine was ejaculated.
When Duan Zhigui drank the fairy wine, he felt a slight odor. It was because he had not washed it thoroughly. In addition, it is easier to understand because of the heat. It was because there were ingredients added to the wine. Duan Zhigui had preconceived ideas and was naturally deceived by the master.
From the beggar Hanako not long ago to the current master Ziyan, there is a huge difference. He is constantly adapting and secretly hides the urine bubble to avoid exposing any flaws.
At this time, Duan Zhigui bowed down and asked for advice: "Chang Immortal, you said that I can be a prince forever, but right now I have a problem that I can't solve. It's the problem of funds. I can't do anything without money!"
"General, I don't know how to turn stone into gold. You have found the wrong person!"
"The Immortal is joking, Duan just wants to ask the Immortal to point out a clear path!"
Human nature is actually very strange, with a strong interest in abnormal things. Zhang Tinglan thought of this when he first studied how to package masters. Duan Zhigui has countless masters around him, so ordinary Jianghu methods are no longer effective against Duan Zhigui, especially these
The so-called master will definitely try his best to brag about his abilities and talk about them to the fullest.
Therefore, Zhang Tinglan repeatedly told Zi Yan to do the opposite. After showing some unusualness, he must be low-key and prudent, not love money, not greedy, in short, he must be pure and few desires, and say more when things happen. But
When you can't avoid it, you have to hit it with one strike. Only in this way can Duan Zhigui feel the master's power.
It turned out to be true. The more Zi Yan declined humbly, the more Duan Zhigui pressed his questions. He had already regarded this unique master as the most ideal person to ask for advice.
"General, you don't have to ask me, but you have to ask yourself. You have an idea in your mind, but you are just undecided!"
One of the most important words of the pretender is: pretend! You must pretend to look like you, pretend to be superior, pretend to be able to see through the world!
Duan Zhigui gave two thumbs up in his heart at this time. This master is really amazing. He has seen through his own mind. He is not afraid of not knowing the goods but afraid of comparing goods. This master is much smarter than those gods in the past!
"The Immortal has hit the mark right now, please give me guidance for my disciples!"
Zi Yan sighed, twirled the fingers of his right hand quickly, and said after a while: "Hey, although the general has a noble destiny, he has a final hurdle to overcome in front of him, and the time will not exceed three months. At this time, you can
If you have to show great courage and determination, the sea and the sky will be brighter if you go through it!"
After Zi Yan finished speaking, he remained silent again and lowered his eyelids, as if he had fallen asleep.
Of course Duan Zhigui knew that the time Yuan Shikai planned to ascend the throne was at the end of the year, which was only three months away from now. The master was so amazing, and everything he said hit his mind, so Duan Zhigui became more and more convinced.
He has long had the idea of making money, and the most convenient idea is to use the official bank account of Fengtian, just like what Liang Shiyi did in Beijing, emptying the bank and plundering funds. In addition, he can blackmail the wealthy businessmen of Fengtian. If necessary, he can
Increase taxes.
However, Duan Zhigui is not a complete fool. He knows that once he does this, he will anger all the people in Fengtian. He is afraid that public opinion will boil and it will be very detrimental to him. While he was swaying left and right, Master Ziyan's words became firm.
His confidence.
In just three months, his godfather will be the emperor, so he has nothing to fear. No matter how much trouble he causes, it is the result of working hard for his godfather, and Lao Yuan will not ignore him when the time comes.
After figuring this out, Duan Zhigui immediately called his men over and asked them to go to the Fengtian Official Bank immediately and move all the stored silver and foreign currencies to the Governor's Mansion. At the same time, he asked Wang Shuhan to start the money printing machine and print a large amount of money.
China has always implemented a silver standard. Therefore, when issuing banknotes, it must have a certain amount of silver and silver dollars as reserves to ensure that the currency can be exchanged at any time and maintain the stability of the currency value. The role of the reserve is like a bank's anchor. Now
Duan Zhigui moved all the reserves away, and the consequences can be imagined.
In addition, Fengtian's finance was already in a very chaotic state. Facing the aggressive Bank of Japan, Fengtian's official bank could barely maintain itself, and there would be runs from time to time. As a result, Duan Zhigui ordered the reserves to be emptied and he printed money like crazy, which meant that everything was in danger.
A reminder was affixed to the ticket.
Although His Highness Duan's actions were secretive, the news still leaked out. The news that the official bank was emptied spread throughout Fengtian within a few days, and all the people were immediately excited.
Over the past few years, a total of more than 15 million Bong tickets have been issued, and ordinary people have more or less some in their hands. Now when I hear that Bong tickets may not be exchanged for real gold and silver, years of savings may turn into a million dollars in the blink of an eye.
Heaping up waste paper, everyone went crazy.
Major newspapers are also publishing various articles, and everyone is asking, is the reserve still there? Many smart people have begun to redeem it at official bank accounts, but unfortunately, they are still a step too late, and they have not yet redeemed it.
After twenty thousand silver dollars, we had to stop.
The official bank account is out of money!
The news spread quickly throughout Fengtian like a flu virus. People who got the news quickly surrounded the official bank account, but no matter how they yelled and begged, it had no effect at all, they just couldn't cash it out!
People are all blind. Usually the money is kept in the official bank account, and no one thinks about exchanging it. The notes can still be used to buy and sell things. Suddenly knowing that the notes cannot be exchanged for silver, everyone becomes anxious and rushes to exchange them.
At the same time, the value of the tickets also continued to depreciate with this news. More and more stores began to refuse to accept the tickets. Seeing that the tickets were about to turn into a pile of waste paper, countless people in Fengtian were crying without tears, and all their anger was gone.
It fell on Duan Zhigui.
Zhang Tinglan has been paying attention to all this. In fact, he is also one of the driving forces behind it. Financial instability has caused too much harm. The reason why Zhang Tinglan did this is to cause chaos and chaos. The official bank model is outdated.
It was unable to resist Japanese attacks externally, and it was unable to implement favorable monetary policies and promote economic development internally. Therefore, it was necessary to eliminate official bank accounts.
Duan Zhigui's recklessness gave Zhang Tinglan a golden opportunity. Of course, it is not easy to launch a currency. It is especially difficult to carve out a bloody path under the eyes of the Japanese. Originally, it was even more difficult.
Zhang Tinglan is not completely sure either.
But he still has a trump card, which is Russian gold. Sun Anhu has already sent news that a train loaded with three tons of gold has entered the three northeastern provinces. Sun Anhu and his men have carefully protected the gold, and they are moving quickly
Heading towards Fengtian.
With three tons of gold as a base, the future currency issuance plan will be much safer. After waiting anxiously for two days, Sun Anhu and his men finally escorted the train into Fengtian. For the sake of confidentiality, the train stopped at Tieling.
They unloaded the sealed gold.
At this time, the response personnel sent by Zhang Zuoxiang also felt it. A total of ten carriages pulled the gold and quietly hurried back to Fengtian. Zhang Zuoxiang Zhang Tinglan and his son had long been looking forward to it. Three tons of gold, what a huge sum of money, Zhang Zuoxiang also
Can't keep calm anymore.
Finally, a pair of carriages came running from a distance, arriving in front of everyone like a whirlwind. Sun Anhu jumped out of the first carriage. His face was covered with dust, his eyes were red, and his beard was unkempt. It looked like he had suffered a lot.
Zhang Zuoxiang grabbed him and said, "Huzi, is there anything wrong with the things?"
"Brother, don't worry. I've been sleeping with one eye open these days, and there's no problem at all."
Zhang Zuoxiang asked his men to take over all the carriages. They transported all the gold to a secret warehouse. They moved all the gold down and piled it in one place. Three tons of gold weighed like a small mountain.
, the golden light appeared in front of Zhang Zuoxiang. I am afraid that most people have never seen so much gold in their lives. Zhang Zuoxiang kept rubbing the gold, unable to hide his surprise.
After a while he asked: "Tinglan, how do you plan to use this money?"
"Dad, Fred and I have discussed and plan to set up a Fengtian Bank. When everyone in Fengtian uses banknotes issued by Fengtian Bank in the future, this gold will be the reserve fund!"
Zhang Zuoxiang rubbed his hands and said tentatively: "Tinglan, I think there are risks in running a bank. Why don't you treat this gold as a family asset? In the future, when you get married and start a business, your descendants will have no worries about food and drink."
"Dad, we can't imitate the rich man!" Zhang Tinglan suddenly opened his eyes wide. If he followed his father's idea, he was afraid that his plan to gain financial power would be in vain.
"After setting up a bank, we can print a piece of paper and buy things, and the profit will be more than a hundred times. Don't just focus on this little gold, there will be more gold in the future!"
More? Zhang Zuoxiang was also stunned. He simply couldn't imagine what more gold meant!
"We have only been smuggling to Russia for three months, and we have obtained these. If it continues for two or three years, how many do you think we will have? In addition, many Russian nobles have made a fortune through smuggling, and they have large sums of gold in their hands.
I am also worried about being liquidated, so I want to transfer the gold in my hands to a safe place!”
"You mean they will be transferred to Fengtian?"
"Of course, I am going to turn Fengtian Bank into their tax haven, and even give them a certain share of shares. The powerful people in Tsarist Russia have earned dirty money, and they naturally want to bleach it, so they will definitely send the gold!"
"Tinglan, don't play with fire!" Zhang Zuoxiang also calmed down at this time. This kid is simply audacious.
"Big Nose is barbaric. If they become shareholders, your bank will become Russian. This is nonsense!"
Zhang Tinglan smiled and shook his head: "Dad, the Russians are not that great. This war has taken off their pants. Besides, they are destined to be the gods of wealth. No matter how much gold they bring, I am sure to swallow it!"
