"Are there many people in the capital who come to deposit and exchange three to five thousand taels of silver at a time?"
Qian Ruoyu seemed to ask casually, but in fact, he had already prepared a trap for Master Fang.
Master Fang smiled slightly and shook his head.
"No no no."
"Miss, you have misunderstood. Not many people can exchange three to five thousand taels of silver at a time. The rest are from other shopkeepers who come to exchange silver taels for their respective shops."
"It is very rare in the capital for people like you two ladies to deposit and exchange so many banknotes at one time."
Then, Qian Ruoyu's expression changed immediately and she took a look inside.
"If that's the case, why can't you even meet your boss? It seems that you don't take good care of the business of Ruyi Bank!"
After seeing Qian Ruoyu's appearance, he understood Qian Ruoyu's thoughts. Master Fang then thought about it.
He stood up quickly.
"It turns out that you two ladies mean this. If that's the case, then I understand. You two, wait a moment. I will go and invite my father to meet you."
After all, it was a request from a special customer like Qian Ruoyu, so Master Fang reluctantly agreed to their request.
Besides, there were very few customers like Qian Ruoyu, so he had to reluctantly ask his father.
After hearing these words, Qian Ruoyu felt completely relieved. In this way, he could see the true face of Boss Fang, and he could also compare it with the people he saw in the courtyard to see if he had recognized the wrong person.
.
There are only three party bosses entering the city. If these three party bosses are not that person, it means that this person is likely to come from outside the capital, and then the target will be much broader.
In less than half a stick of incense, Master Fang closed the door and opened it again. A middle-aged man walked in under the leadership of Master Fang.
"You two ladies, this is my father."
But when she saw this middle-aged man, Qian Ruoyu became even more puzzled. The height of this man was completely different from the height of the people he had seen in the courtyard!
Could it be that I made a mistake?
This person is very different from that person.
Qian Ruoyu glanced at Golden Lotus next to her, and Golden Lotus shook her head, confirming Qian Ruoyu's idea that this person was indeed not the Boss Fang she was looking for.
But even so, Qian Ruoyu still chatted politely with the other party.
"Is this Boss Fang?"
Boss Fang nodded slightly.
"I am Fang Dingbang, the second shopkeeper of Ruyi Bank. My son Fang Shaokang is the third shopkeeper of Ruyi Bank. In fact, having him entertain you does not lose the importance of our Ruyi Bank."
"But since you two insist on seeing me, it doesn't matter. I am grateful to you for depositing so many banknotes in my Ruyi Bank. I wonder which house you are the eldest lady of?"
But Qian Ruoyu didn't listen to what he said at all. He only captured a piece of information from his two sentences, that is, the second shopkeeper and the third shopkeeper.
In front of him were the second and third shopkeepers of Ruyi Bank, and what about the big shopkeeper.
However, Qian Ruoyu knew that asking such an abrupt question at this time would probably arouse the suspicion of the people at Ruyi Bank, so Qian Ruoyu said with a smile.
"Haha, we are no eldest lady. We just did some small business in the capital, some inconspicuous business."
"These transactions are not worth mentioning. Our parents asked us to deposit these banknotes, which can be regarded as temporary needs. Not to mention that we will return to our hometown in a few days and we will also need some banknotes."
Hearing what Qian Ruoyu said, he immediately nodded.
Then Fang Dingbang said.
"Please rest assured, ladies, although our Ruyi Bank does not have many branches, we can still exchange our banknotes for taels of silver at them as long as we go to the banks around the country and ask around."
But at this time, Qian Ruoyu had no intention of listening to any of Fang Dingbang's words. She was just thinking about who the big boss of Ruyi Bank was.
Afterwards, they chatted for less than half a stick of incense before Qian Ruoyu asked.
"Since the second and third shopkeepers are all here, it's not like we're dragging the boss. Where is the boss?"
After hearing Qian Ruoyu's words, Fang Dingbang immediately glanced at Fang Shaokang next to him, and the two made eye contact for a while.
Afterwards, Fang Dingbang only thought that Qian Ruoyu's move was unintentional, so he said immediately.
"Haha, this lady doesn't know something. Although my eldest brother is the big shopkeeper of Ruyi Bank, he rarely manages the affairs of Ruyi Bank. What's more, he has been ill in bed recently, so he can rarely go out."
"If you two insist on meeting, I'm afraid it won't be very convenient..."
After hearing these words, Qian Ruoyu realized that there was a big shopkeeper who was bedridden, but was he really sick?
It's just that now that the matter has come to this point, Qian Ruoyu can no longer ask any more questions, let alone find the real big shopkeeper.
Qian Ruoyu smiled awkwardly, "That's not necessary, I just asked out of curiosity. If that's the case, there's nothing wrong. I'll go get all the silver right away."
Qian Ruoyu let Golden Lotus stay in the room and walked out alone.
In just one stick of incense, Qian Ruoyu hired another carriage and placed all five thousand taels of silver on the carriage.
At this time, Fang Dingbang had already left, and only Fang Shaokang stayed in the yard to talk to Golden Lotus for a while.
After Fang Shaokang saw the shadow of a carriage, he felt more relieved. Finally, he handed over all the banknotes and stubs to the two of them, and ordered the waiter to start counting.
I gave the banknote and stub first to express my trust in Qian Ruoyu and Golden Lotus.
But Qian Ruoyu looked indifferent and said a few words in Golden Lotus's ear.
Golden Lotus nodded quickly after hearing this, and Qian Ruoyu also turned to Fang Shaokang's direction.
"Master Fang, it seems that your Ruyi Bank is making money every day, so you must not have joined the Capital Chamber of Commerce, right?"
Fang Shaokang smiled and shook his head.
"The Chamber of Commerce in Beijing are all rogues. We at Ruyi Bank are doing serious business and we will not be confused with those rogues!"
When Fang Shaokang said these words, Golden Lotus had already taken the opportunity to leave and entered the backyard of Ruyi Bank.
"We don't bother to get together with the people from the Capital Chamber of Commerce. They have dealt with us before, but we were able to resist them. One day we will destroy all of the Capital Chamber of Commerce!"
When he said these words, Fang Shaokang's eyes seemed to have a ball of fire.
Qian Ruoyu could also see that Fang Shaokang did hate the Capital Chamber of Commerce. Otherwise, how could he say this?
So Qian Ruoyu continued.
"What? Could it be that the Capital Chamber of Commerce did something bad to your Ruyi Bank? I wonder if the little lady can understand?"
