Bai Changkong was shocked when he heard this plan.
"Didn't my second uncle say it before? You can't print banknotes privately. This is fraud. The more you print, the more problems will arise in the end!"
Bai Wu didn't think so and said: "Before, damn Fang Chen took away one billion of our silver notes, wasn't it okay?"
"These banknotes were not printed by my second uncle! Besides, we two brothers don't need so many, we only need to print a few million taels."
For the wealthy Tongtian Chamber of Commerce, a few million taels is just a drop in the bucket.
The second uncle won't notice at all.
Bai Changkong didn't agree at first, but after Bai Wu said it over and over again, Bai Changkong was tempted.
The Tongtian Chamber of Commerce is as rich as any country, so rich.
There is nothing wrong with spending a few million taels on your own.
Both of them were gamblers and wanted to make some money to make money, so they hit it off.
Bai Changkong said: "Second brother, this method is feasible. Even if we want to print banknotes, we still need the official seal of the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce."
"Besides, the two of us don't know how to print and we don't have a seal. What should we do?"
Bai Wu chuckled and whispered in Bei Changkong's ear: "To be honest, brother, I have already learned this printing technique. As for the seal, I have already found someone to engrave it. In short, everything is settled."
Only then did Bai Changkong realize that his second brother had long wanted to print banknotes privately.
But it's very risky for him to do it alone.
So I roped in my eldest brother to do it together.
The printing and issuance of banknotes need to be decided at a meeting of the Chamber of Commerce’s top management.
There are so many physical objects and how many banknotes are printed, but at this moment, the two brothers can't control that much.
After the two discussed it, they lurked to the banknote printing office that night.
Bai Wu had already obtained the key here.
And he also got the key to storing the mold.
He had started working on it half a month ago in order to make money.
Bai Changkong was watching outside.
Bai Wu took the template and started printing banknotes. All he printed were 100,000 taels each.
The denomination of one million taels is too large, and it is easy to cause trouble when taking it out.
The denomination of ten thousand taels is too small and it takes a long time to print.
One hundred thousand taels is just right.
Originally, Bai Wu planned to print only twenty sheets, but as he kept doing it, he couldn't stop it. He printed a hundred sheets at once, which is 20 million taels!
After printing, check that everything is correct.
Afterwards, Bai Wu wiped all the molds clean and put them away.
Also clean the site cleanly without leaving any traces.
Bai Wu and Bai Changkong left quietly again.
After returning to the room, the two brothers placed the printed banknotes on the table, picked up the seal of the Chamber of Commerce and stamped it.
Looking at the 20 million taels of silver notes in front of them, the two brothers' eyes lit up.
Bai Changkong said: "Second brother, I only need you to get two million, but you actually got so much."
"We split the money, but you have to remember to save money this time."
Bai Wu chuckled and said, "I know, brother."
"In addition to paying off more than one million taels of gambling debt, I will keep 50% of the remaining money for fun, and I want to invest the remaining 50% in some businesses."
The two brothers worked together to divide the stolen money.
Because the banknote has just been printed and the ink has not dried in some places.
The two brothers discussed it and decided to go to the gambling place together tomorrow night to show off their power.
…
That night, Fang Chen dressed up as a palace guard.
Under the cover of Yang Zongchang, the commander of the Forbidden Army, he entered the palace.
Fang Chen came to Luo Ningxin's palace.
"Master Fang, you are here, please take a seat." Luo Ningxin greeted Fang Chen warmly after seeing him.
The two people sat facing each other, just like two friends who hadn't seen each other for a long time.
The two of them drank tea, and Fang Chen first told Luo Ningxin about Luo Longyu's affairs.
Fang Chen had already told Luo Longyu before.
Luo Ningxin was seriously ill that year, but she actually did not die.
She was rescued by Gui Guzi, cured Luo Ningxin's illness, and then took her to practice. Now she comes here to assist Fang Chen.
Fang Chen handled this matter very beautifully, and Luo Longyu had no doubts. At this moment, Luo Ningxin finally felt at ease.
However, Luo Ningxin still wanted to see Luo Longyu.
You can't neglect your brother who loves you so much.
Then find a way to disappear for a while.
Then the two talked about other things.
Fang Chen said: "Your Majesty, the first step of the plan has been successful."
"Just now, I heard Commander Yang say that His Majesty and Bai Yongliang are also at odds with each other. Bai Yongliang withheld the salt shipped by the Qiankun Chamber of Commerce."
Luo Ningxin took a sip of tea and said: "Bai Yongliang withheld the salt and wanted to force me to submit. But this time, he broke the contract first and did not fulfill the agreement between us and the Daqian Dynasty."
"So I have the right to cancel all contracts and ask the other party to pay liquidated damages."
"When the cooperation with the Daqian Dynasty is completely cancelled, you can slowly transport the salt you made on the island to the imperial capital, and then to all parts of the country."
Luo Ningxin was ready to break up with Bai Yongliang and completely break up with the Daqian Dynasty.
Over the years, the Great Yan Dynasty has really had enough of the salt issue.
But now that Bai Yongliang has taken charge of the import and export rights, he is opening his mouth to the lion from time to time to seek his own interests and suppress His Majesty and all civil and military officials.
This time Luo Ningxin was ready to explode completely and uproot the Bai family.
All plans are arranged.
Fang Chen remembered another thing and said, "Your Majesty, I had a conversation with Jiang Ruoxue, the daughter of the president of the Saibei Shennong Chamber of Commerce."
"Jiang Ruoxue told me that the soldiers at the border of the Great Yan Dynasty often harassed the tribes in the north of Saibei, killing people, setting fires, and robbing women. They did many evil things."
The president of Saibei Chamber of Commerce is Saibei Kuangdao Jiang Long.
He is also the number one master in Saibei.
Previously, Bai Chuan asked housekeeper Li Fu to find Jiang Long and assassinate Fang Chen.
Li Fu gave Jiang Long the Bai family's secret book, the Heaven-Slaying and Sword-Slaying Technique.
However, after Jiang Long collected the things, he did not kill Fang Chen.
Later, Bai Chuan died, but Jiang Long still did not carry out this mission.
Afterwards, Jiang Ruoxue said that she would join forces with Fang Chen to deal with the Bai family.
What Jiang Ruoxue wants is the black gunpowder in Fang Chen's hand.
Jiang Ruoxue has always wanted to make friends with Fang Chen.
Even if Fang Chen didn't give her black powder in the end and the two sides couldn't reach an agreement, Jiang Ruoxue still stood by Fang Chen in the end.
The last time Dayan Bank opened, many people joined the Bai family to bankroll Fang Chen.
Only Jiang Ruoxue's Shennong Chamber of Commerce and Wancai Bank supported Fang Chen.
Fang Chen owed Jiang Ruoxue a favor for many things.
Luo Ningxin felt incredible when she heard this information.
Because she has been receiving reports and information from border officials.
Those tribes from the northern part of the Great Wall often sneaked into the border cities of the Great Yan Dynasty and did some sneaky things. Sometimes they even killed people and provoked the Great Yan Dynasty.
Small-scale fighting often breaks out between the two countries at the border, and many people die each time.
Luo Ningxin said: "According to the information I got, these things were caused by the barbarians in Saibei harassing us."
"And the news you got here is exactly the opposite of the news I got here."
