Bai Yongliang smiled and refused: "Tens of millions of taels of silver are scattered all over the country. It would be too difficult to collect them all, so everyone now does business and likes to use silver notes. They don't like to use silver to trade.
, it’s really too troublesome.”
Of course Fang Chen knew that Bai Yongliang wanted to defeat Bai Lang.
He could privately issue banknotes without physical objects and place them here with Fang Chen to earn interest and cheat Fang Chen.
Fang Chen is not stupid!
Under normal circumstances, we don't dare to issue banknotes indiscriminately. Just like a country, printing too many banknotes will cause inflation, and the consequences will be extremely terrible.
Therefore, goods and banknotes must be equal!
Some chambers of commerce will privately print some banknotes, but within a controllable and small area, they will take them back when the turnover is ok.
And if this kind of thing is found out by the court, it will definitely be a capital crime!
Everyone involved is equally guilty!
At this time, another person said: "Currently, the bank notes of major chambers of commerce are not interoperable, which often causes great trouble. It would be much better if all bank notes could be more universal."
Another person said: "Small denominations can be used universally, but large denominations cannot be used at all. What if something goes wrong? Who is responsible? And more importantly, when our domestic banknotes are taken abroad, people simply don't care.
Admit it, this is also the most difficult aspect to do.”
Everyone started discussing the issue of banknotes.
Everyone in the chamber of commerce and bank has thought about unifying all the banknotes, but none of them can do this.
At this time, Luo Longyu spoke.
"If the imperial court can issue a unified banknote that can be used by ordinary people in chambers of commerce across the country, this problem can naturally be solved."
"Do you think so, Mr. Fang?"
This is exactly Fang Chen's goal.
However, others say this is impossible to achieve.
"Second Prince, if banknotes are unified, how will our banks survive? Will all the rights to issue banknotes end up in the hands of the imperial court?"
"Second Prince, some people in the court have mentioned this matter many years ago, unifying all currencies and creating a kind of banknote, but this is too difficult and impossible to achieve."
Everyone questioned Luo Longyu's words and went to refute them.
The people here are all business tycoons, and even the prince must give them some respect, so if these people have different opinions, they will speak out.
Today, we only talk about business, not politics.
Luo Longyu said with a smile: "With the development and progress of the business world, I believe that one day, banknotes will be fully unified. At that time, our Great Yan Dynasty will truly move towards a new glory."
The inconsistency of banknotes has brought great obstacles to many businesses and economic development.
Fang Chen agreed with Luo Longyu's point of view.
"Everyone, currency unification will not harm our survival, but will bring great benefits to everyone. We must look at long-term development."
"And my goal is to have books with the same text, cars with the same track, cars with the same wheels, and words and currencies unified. When the time comes, it will be our prosperous age in Great Yan!"
When Fang Chen finished speaking, everyone was shocked, and many people opened their mouths in surprise.
Is this possible? To achieve any of what Fang Chen said is harder than reaching the sky!
"Master Fang, are you just talking about fantasy and fantasy?"
"Master Fang, you have such a grand ambition, it is really admirable." This man was not impressed, his tone was mocking.
Many people did not expect that Fang Chen would have such a lofty ideal, but most people did not believe it.
And these businessmen on the scene are just here for money.
When Fang Chen chatted with the presidents of the chamber of commerce, he found that they were all wary of him, and they were all surrounding Bai Yongliang while talking.
Fang Chen, Luo Longyu, and Jiang Ruoxue are on the same front, and the others are in the same camp.
very obvious.
At this time, a sudden sound came from behind.
"Everyone, I'm in a hurry. I'm late. I'm so sorry!"
The visitor is Shen Wancai, the owner of Wancai Bank.
Recently, Shen Wancai has been doing business in other cities and is out of town.
When he learned that the imperial court had opened a bank, he immediately hurried back and drove for several days before finally catching up.
But I still missed the best opportunity to cut the ribbon.
Wancai Bank is the real number one bank in Dayan. Even the Tongtian Chamber of Commerce wants to be called "little brother" in front of Wancai Bank.
However, the business of Wancai Bank is not as extensive as that of Tongtian Chamber of Commerce. The reason why it is the number one bank is that it has a long history and has the first reputation. It does not mean that it is richer than Tongtian Chamber of Commerce.
When Shen Wancai arrived, everyone stood up and saluted in unison.
And Shen Wancai smiled and said: "No need to be polite, I'm late, I will punish myself with three drinks."
After Shen Wancai drank three glasses of wine, he toasted Luo Longyu and Fang Chen before taking their seats.
"Master Fang, this is my gift to Dayan Bank, please accept it!"
Shen Wancai took out a contract from his bag, which was a long-term cooperation contract with the Dayan Chamber of Commerce.
Fang Chen took it in his hand and read it carefully.
Wancai Bank is actually willing to merge with Dayan Bank, and all the money in it can be integrated into Dayan Bank!
In other words, Fang Chen can take as much as he wants!
You can transfer all the money of Wancai Bank depositors to Dayan Bank.
Of course, Wancai Bank will discuss with all depositors. Those who are willing to transfer it, and those who are unwilling, can continue to keep it in Wancai Bank for safekeeping, or take it away.
This great gift caught everyone by surprise. They did not expect that Wancai Bank would cooperate with Dayan Bank in all aspects.
The credibility of Wancai Bank cannot be matched by any bank or chamber of commerce!
More than 90% of their customers are wealthy people!
At this moment, Bai Yongliang and other chamber of commerce presidents looked extremely ugly.
Wancai Bank doing this is like declaring war with all other banks and chambers of commerce in the Great Yan Dynasty.
Originally, on the first day of Dayan Bank's opening, Bai Yongliang wanted to join forces with other chambers of commerce to isolate Dayan Bank. This was also a test and hint that made Fang Chen understand that this road would not work at all.
However, now that Shenlong Chamber of Commerce has given Fang Chen a one million deposit, Wancai Bank now wants to deposit almost all the money in the bank with Fang Chen.
This is too scary!
And Shen Wancai announced in public that he was not discussing with Fang Chen privately. He obviously did it on purpose, just to let everyone know that Wancai Bank is on Fang Chen's side!
If you dare to be an enemy of Dayan Bank in the future, you will be an enemy of Wancai Bank!
Everyone at the scene was shocked. When Fang Chen saw this gift, his heart was in a state of shock.
He and Shen Wancai did not have a deep relationship. They only had a casual relationship before. When dealing with Zhang Yu, Shen Wancai was a witness in court and had no other relationship.
But now, Shen Wancai's gift made Fang Chen feel that this matter was not that simple.
However, there is nothing wrong with the content of the contract in his hand. It is of no harm to Fang Chen. It is obvious that the other party is full of sincerity!
Fang Chen was overjoyed after signing the contract.
He grabbed Shen Wancai's hand and said excitedly: "Master Shen, thank you so much. We will be a family from now on. If our two banks cooperate, we will definitely make Dayan Bank the number one in the world." Qianzhuang! ”
"Master Shen, let me toast you!"
At this moment, a shout came over: "President of the Imperial Capital Chamber of Commerce Alliance, President Song is here!"
