Yang Lian was impatient. When he heard that Wei Zhongxian was going to do something against Ma Xiaoquan, he quickly shouted: "Wei Zhongxian, you rebellious minister and traitor, you will not die in peace. If you..."
Before Yang Lian finished speaking, Zuo Guangdou suddenly shouted: "Da Hong Yang Lian's nickname, don't talk to him anymore!"
Yang Lian was stunned for a moment, glanced at Zuo Guangdou, and reacted instantly.
Wei Zhongxian's provocation failed, and he felt a little regretful. However, seeing that Zuo Guangdou and Yang Lian had been captured by him for trial, he felt very happy.
"Huh, you don't want to say that Ma Xiaoquan is guilty. I have my own way to punish him. Let me tell you, Ma Xiaoquan can't escape my grasp, haha..." Wei Zhongxian said and left proudly.
...
After Wei Zhongxian returned home, he immediately sent people to spread the news that Zuo Guangdou and Yang Lian were in jail.
Ma Xiaoquan heard that Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou had been imprisoned and wanted to visit them in prison immediately. Hua Yue stopped him and said, "Absolutely not. Wei Zhongxian is grabbing your pigtails right now. If you go to see them, you will be hit."
Wei Zhongxian’s plans.”
Ma Xiaoquan was puzzled: "I'm just going to see if there's anything that hits or misses?"
Hua Yue said: "When Wei Zhongxian escorted Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou to the capital, why didn't they directly imprison him in his Dongchang Prison or Jinyiwei Prison? Instead, they chose to imprison them in the Sky Prison, and they were imprisoned on the same day. It has already spread.
News, this news was not sent to you by Brother Mu Zhi..."
Ma Xiaoquan reacted and said: "Yue'er, you said that Wei Zhongxian was trying to lure me into taking the bait?"
"Yes, Wei Zhongxian must have told Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou something about you, but they definitely disagreed, so Wei Zhongxian made another trick to get you."
Ma Xiaoquan was a little disapproving: "I'm not a member of the Donglin Party, what should I be afraid of?"
"That's true, but since they forged Wang Wenyan's confession, couldn't they also forge Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou's?"
"Yeah" Ma Xiaoquan dragged his chin and frowned: "Yue'er, you are so reminding me, is it true?"
Hua Yue nodded: "Also, Wei Zhongxian made such a big fuss, why did King Xin remain indifferent? Don't you understand this?"
Ma Xiaoquan suddenly realized: "The first shot will kill the bird, I understand."
"Well, that's right, so what we can do now is what we should do."
...
Wei Zhongxian imprisoned Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou in the prison for several days, but Ma Xiaoquan did not come to visit them, and he couldn't help but feel angry.
He called Wang Tiqian to him and cursed angrily: "It's all your bad idea, you bitch. Ma Xiaoquan didn't visit the prison at all in the past few days. Not only that, he also allowed him to open a bank smoothly. You
Say, what should I do?”
Wang Tiqian also had a bitter look on his face. He originally thought that he would be able to deal with Ma Xiaoquan properly when he came up with this idea, but he didn't expect that guy not to be fooled. Well, now that Mr. Wei has blamed him, he really has no place to show his face.
"Master Wei, calm down. Master Wei, calm down. Although Ma Xiaoquan has opened a bank, he has just opened it, so we can still cause trouble for him."
"Trouble your mother's legs..." Wei Zhongxian took out a letter with a snap, threw it on the ground and said, "Li Yongzhen has already read what is written in this letter to me, you can read it yourself."
Wang Tiqian picked up the letter from the ground in horror, opened it and looked at it, and the bitter look on his face became even worse.
"Ma Xiaoquan is extremely cunning. He recruited a group of people to open a bank. Now many of the people in that group belong to me. What do you think I should do against him?"
Wang Tiqian lowered his head and did not dare to say a word.
"That's all, Ma Xiaoquan's matter will be put aside for the time being. Yang Lian and Zuo Guangdou should not be imprisoned in the sky jail. Let's move them to the Jinyiwei prison."
Upon hearing this, Wang Tiqian quickly said respectfully: "Yes, Mr. Wei!"
...
In Ma's study room, Ma Xiaoquan smiled and put a letter on the table, and praised Hua Yue who was pouring him tea: "Yue'er, your prediction is correct, Wei Zhongxian is indeed luring me into taking the bait... ..”
"Yes." Hua Yue poured the tea, put down the teapot, and nodded, "Our bank is now open, but the rewards you promised to those people can't be fulfilled at all, right?"
Ma Xiaoquan said: "Haha, you don't have to worry about this, I have my own way."
...
The next day, Majia Bank suddenly advertised in Beijing about a big opening bonus. Savers who deposited a certain amount of money in Majia Bank for one year could receive varying levels of interest rewards every year.
In the past, those banks were only responsible for depositing, withdrawing and exchanging money. As for whether to pay interest, these banks would never openly say it. Ma Xiaoquan's move immediately aroused dissatisfaction from other banks, but many of them went to the bank. He cheated on Ma Xiaoquan's "thief ship" and was promised a certain dividend every year by Ma Xiaoquan, so he could only turn a blind eye and watch Ma Xiaoquan mess with it.
There were many merchants coming and going in Beijing, and Ma Xiaoquan controlled the gathering place of merchants, so as soon as the bank opened, the merchants were discussing whether to deposit money in Ma's bank.
At this time, the fat businessman who was Ma Xiaoquan's "agent" at the merchant gathering place suddenly appeared and publicized the various benefits of Ma's Bank. Some merchants who couldn't help but be tempted immediately deposited their remaining business money into the bank. Majia Bank.
Someone took the lead, and others immediately followed. Within a few days, most of the merchants in the merchant gathering area opened accounts in Majia Bank and deposited money.
...
The news that Ma's Bank had depositors when it opened soon spread throughout Beijing, and before long, some wealthy people and laymen also chose to deposit their family's surplus money into Ma's Bank.
At night, Hua Yue discussed the bank's operation with Ma Xiaoquan in the study.
Hua Yue said with some worry: "Although our bank is in good business, we no longer have enough manpower to face such a rapidly expanding business."
Ma Xiaoquan chuckled and said: "Don't panic about this, Yue'er, have you forgotten the basic accounting knowledge I taught you?"
Hua Yue smiled bitterly and said, "Although it's not difficult to understand, I don't know if it's practical or not?"
Ma Xiaoquan said: "Of course it is practical, don't forget, your man and I come from modern times."
"What about manpower issues?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled, clapped his hands, the study door creaked open, and Lisa walked in respectfully.
"Lisa?" Hua Yue looked at Lisa in surprise, "Why are you here?"
Lisa saluted Hua Yue respectfully, and then said: "My lord asked me to take charge of the front desk business of the bank."
"Front desk? What front desk?"
Ma Xiaoquan smiled and said: "To put it simply, he is the one who greets the door."
Hua Yue was puzzled: "This person who runs a bank also has a door-to-door person, and she is also a woman. Why do I always feel a bit..."
