First of all, with the support of King Zhong, it is a good thing for the development of Daqian Bank. It will expand its influence and be accepted by more businessmen and people. Once everyone accepts it and deposits money into it, his The benefits will be greater. Once a war breaks out, there will be more money that can be embezzled.
Secondly, Daqian only invested 100 million taels. Shen Ao was taking care of the rest, but if something happened one day, as long as Daqian Bank was still open in Daliang City, he could invest his 100 million taels of silver. If you take it back, any loss you have will only be a loss to others, and your own interests will not be damaged.
Yes, this is what Emperor Qianwen thought. Although he was very optimistic about Shen Ao, a prince he did not recognize, and although they had an upright father-son relationship, it involved the interests of Daqian and the country. Sometimes, he can still abandon anyone.
This is the original intention of Emperor Qianwen. He will give his feelings, provided that the feelings he gives are also for the development of Daqian, and provided that such feelings cannot hurt his own interests. If not, nothing can be left behind. , at most he will feel a little distressed afterwards.
Otherwise, he would not have planned to destroy Shen Ao and imprison him forever when he saw Aoxue not showing up.
Regarding Shen Ao, Emperor Qianwen's emotional bottom line was that he would not kill this person, but would spare his life, that's all.
Thirdly, this is a good opportunity to break into King Zhong. Whether it is Daqian Bank or the road that can be repaired, it is a kind of penetration into Liao and Jizhou. When things are done, the two families become one. It is not impossible. If that is the case, Emperor Qianwen's own strength will rise to a higher level, and his wish to unify the entire land of China will be realized.
Based on these points, Emperor Qianwen had no reason not to be excited, which also made him pay more attention to Shen Ao. If he hadn't just been given six thousand acres of land and Shen Ao hadn't used it yet, I'm afraid he would have endured it. Don't live in the land.
It can be said that so far, the development and influence of Daqian Silver Village have exceeded Emperor Qianwen's expectations, making him very satisfied.
Some people are satisfied and some are dissatisfied.
Shen Ao actually got the support of King Zhong. When the news came out, it aroused the envy, jealousy, and even jealousy of many people.
Jealousy refers to someone's idea that an important relationship is destroyed by a third party, weakened or affected by it, or that someone else has certain resources or characteristics that one does not have. In love, there is often a saying of "jealousy".
Jealousy refers to a psychological state of indifference, depreciation, rejection, or even hostility towards the lucky or potentially lucky people in order to compete for certain rights and interests.
If it's just the former, it's not terrible. It's just a normal psychological reaction of people. It belongs to the normal psychological category and is nothing.
But if it's the latter, it's completely different. Exclusion and hostility can lead to bad things.
In this world, there is always a kind of person who is willing to do thankless things. They would rather not get it themselves than let others get it. It seems that this is also a kind of victory in their eyes.
King Xiang belongs to such a person.
From the very beginning, he watched everything with a cold eye. When he saw Daqian Bank standing upright, he thought about his couch-like appearance in his mind. Unfortunately, things developed beyond his imagination. Not only did Daqian Bank not closed, but is being accepted by more people.
Especially after King Zhong expressed his support, those merchants who have business dealings with Liao and Jizhou will definitely deposit their money in Daqian Bank. In this way, they will not need to do business in King Zhong’s territory in the future. With a large amount of money, you only need to carry a banknote that is light and easy to carry.
This made Prince Xiang very puzzled. The real money was just exchanged for some paper. Would anyone believe such a risky thing? Would anyone admit it?
But no matter what King Xiang thought, it still couldn't change the facts. Seeing that Daqian Bank became more and more important and attracted more attention from his father, King Xiang was filled with jealousy, control and power. He was so heavy that he began to think about replacing it.
People seem to have this habit, that is, once the scars are healed, they forget about the pain.
Previously, the prince wanted to spy on the growing prosperity of the country, but he suffered a big loss.
King Xiang also wanted to deal with Shen Ao, and even united with the Lu family, one of the top wealthy families at the time, to suppress Guo Changlong, but he also suffered a big loss.
These past events were only a short time ago, but King Xiang thought about it again. However, due to the previous failures, this time he did not use power to suppress others. Perhaps he also saw that Daqian Qianzhuang was a big problem. Now, except for Shen Ao, no one else can really play it.
Since you can't use power to suppress people, you can use power to suppress people. He called his staff Shi Zitong, and he narrated it orally. This person wrote a chapter and wrote it down respectively for the King of Qi behind him and the Jin Dynasty behind the former prince. Wang wrote a secret message.
In the letter, he first explained the power of Daqian Bank, saying that if this continues, no one can control Daqian. This is not a good thing for the vassal. The increasingly powerful Daqian will always threaten the neighbors. of.
Then the letter stated King Xiang's countermeasures. That is to use power to suppress and control as much as possible other areas to transport materials to Daliang City. It is best to cut off the trade. In this way, one day, Daliang City will When Qianqianzhuang found that it couldn't buy many things even with money, it naturally stopped developing.
This is seen as a ploy to draw money from under the cauldron.
At the end of the letter, King Xiang also requested the King of Qi and the King of Jin not to recognize Daqian Bank and curb the momentum of Daqian Bank.
After the letter was written, Prince Xiang was holding it in his hand and looking at it. Shi Zitong on the side was flattering and said, "Your Highness, if this happens, the development of Daqian Bank will definitely encounter difficulties. If that happens, Shen Ao will have to get out." .Facing this mess, everyone will be helpless. It is time for His Highness to step up and take over everything. I would like to congratulate Your Highness first."
"Haha, easy to say, easy to say." King Xiang laughed loudly after being flattered by this flattery. This was exactly the result he wanted. He wanted to see how the loyal Duke Shen faced the double oppression of King Qi and King Jin. I can still dance for a few days, and I can still be happy for a few days.
Shen Ao, who was obsessed with studying by Shen Ao, naturally didn't know what King Xiang was doing behind his back. At this time, he was thinking deeply about who should take charge of Daqian Bank under King Zhong.
Things were going too smoothly, and the business was getting bigger and bigger, which made Shen Ao feel like he was lacking in talent.
When there is not enough time to cultivate enough talents, Daqian Bank will expand again, and the candidate for the chief executive becomes extremely important.
In Shen Ao's eyes, it was a good thing that King Zhong recognized the bank, and his worries about Tang Yi were not in vain.
It has to be said here that Shen Ao also has a utilitarian mind. At least he first paid attention to Tang Yi. It was because the other person's identity attracted him that he thought of becoming friends by making prosthetic limbs. But afterward, he took the initiative to give money to Tang Yi in front of Prince Zhong's Mansion. When it came to road construction, Shen Ao truly regarded Tang Yi as a friend, and there was nothing involved at that time.
Facts have also proved that good people will eventually be rewarded. The support of King Zhong has strengthened the strength and reputation of Daqian Bank. It is conceivable that in the next period of time, more businessmen will deposit money into the bank, and soon A big development opportunity is about to come.
But Shen Ao will not be satisfied with a little success before his eyes. King Zhong's cooperation is only the first step. Next, he will open Daqian Bank to the King of Jin, the King of Qi, the King of Southern Wu, the King of Xishu and even the King of Western Shu. Di, Man, Yue and other regions. As for Japan, it is too far across the sea, so I haven’t thought much about it yet.
If you want to have success later, you must do this step of being loyal to the king, and take every solid step. The person who sends the person in charge is extremely important.
Different from the name of being in charge within Da Qian, the person in charge who goes to King Zhong's territory cannot have any overly official background, otherwise it will only make King Zhong feel conflicted, which goes against his original wishes.
It cannot be an official, but it must have a certain degree of intimidation and strong ability. Such a person is difficult to find.
It's not entirely difficult to find, but at least Shen Ao has such a talent around him, and that is Shen Xing, the steward of the Zhongguo Palace, who has watched Shen Ao grow up since he was a child.
Whether Shen Xing is capable or not can be seen from the fact that he can be in charge of housing construction and housing allocation. Shen Ao has entrusted him with important responsibilities.
It's just that over the years, Shen Ao has become accustomed to Shen Xing's presence, and is used to letting him arrange many things and doing them in an orderly manner. Now that he has to send such a capable person out, he is a little reluctant, but I had to do this for the sake of the big plan.
Only Shen Xing is the steward of the Zhongguo Palace. With his status, not many people dare to provoke him. After all, it depends on the owner to beat a dog. Shen Ao is famous for being aggressive. If you piss him off, you don't care. I have to fight for my identity, and I don't suffer any loss every time, so I got the name of the King of Hell.
The steward of the King of Hell, how can he be someone easy to mess with?
With Shen Xing going to the land of loyal kings, there must not be too many people who don't sell his face. After deciding on the candidate, Shen Ao invited Shen Xing to ask for his opinion.
Like Shen Ao, Shen Xing was unwilling to leave the Young Master. But this was the decision made by Shen Ao, and Shen Xing still chose to agree. Then a memorial was delivered to the palace and delivered directly to Emperor Qianwen. .
Generally, if a courtier wants to submit a memorial, he will submit it to the superior officer first according to the rules, and then proceed step by step. Finally, it will fall into the hands of the left and right servants and the internal minister, and then it will be judged whether the matter is big or small. Will consider whether to report it to the emperor.
