Just when Cornucopia Bank was in full swing, there were still many people with money who wanted to come and invest, but who would have thought that even the Cornucopia Bank signboard was demolished overnight.
The cornucopia of empty buildings suddenly became a hot topic in Kyoto.
There are people coming and going on the street every day, running around in a hurry.
Some people used various means to inquire about the cornucopia, while some people couldn't bear it and rushed directly into the cornucopia store, hoping to get back their money.
There are also some people who have already made trouble with the government.
Ma Yuanwai can be regarded as a well-known and wealthy businessman in Kyoto. His ancestor was the founding general of the People's Republic of China and he has been running a grain business for many years.
Everyone in Kyoto knows about Ma Yuan’s family’s grain store.
He came to the Kyoto Yamen and found Mr. Chen, who was responsible for managing public security in Kyoto. He was a haggard man.
"Mr. Chen, what on earth is going on?" Ma Yuanwai asked with a grimace.
"What's going on?" Master Chen asked.
"The Cornucopia Bank? Who is the owner of the bank? Mr. Chen, tell me everything."
"My boss? I don't know." Master Chen said.
"Then the bank wasn't run by someone from the palace?"
"How could such a thing happen? I've never heard of it."
"Ah? Isn't it being spread outside?"
"It's just a rumor."
"When Cornucopia Bank opened, weren't you and many adults present?" Ma Yuanwai continued.
"This is normal. We are just doing it on a routine basis. We went over to take a look. We are not going to attend any opening. When major stores open in Kyoto, we will go and have a look and ask... Ma Yuanwai, please don't talk nonsense about this. We
It has nothing to do with Cornucopia Bank." Master Chen said.
"Then why is the cornucopia closed now?"
"What does it care about us if it closes its doors?"
"All our money was invested in their bank!!" Ma Yuanwai was almost going crazy.
…
For a time, the Kyoto Cornucopia Scam became the subject of discussion by everyone.
Even the aunts selling vegetables on the street are talking about this.
People visit the yamen in Kyoto almost every day, and there are also people in the world asking about the situation.
More than half a month has passed in the blink of an eye, and all the wealthy businessmen who have invested money in the cornucopia have accepted the reality that they have been deceived!
After knowing that they had been cheated, many people became angry and began to use various means to recover their money.
Some people put pressure on the government, some found people in the world to solve the problem, and some directly found the killer.
For a time, the situation in Kyoto was changing. In the seemingly peaceful city of Kyoto, undercurrents were surging.
And the instigator of all this, Li Qi, was leisurely sitting in the courtyard of Qingxiu City, drinking homemade iced bayberry juice.
This bayberry juice is delicious, but it requires too much ice. Nowadays, the price of ice is so high that it would be too much to drink every day.
After Li Qi drank the last mouthful of bayberry juice, he picked up a piece of jade cake and put it in his mouth to eat.
Tang Yun sat aside and fanned him.
"Sir, I'm leaving tonight..." Tang Yun said with some reluctance.
Li Qi nodded: "Please pay attention to safety along the way. Do you still remember what I told you?"
Tang Yun nodded: "I remember. Young Master asked me to go to Feiyan Village and report to the leader of the village on the situation in Kyoto..."
"Remember what I told you?"
"The young master asked me to tell the village leader that the young master is in many dangers in Kyoto, walking on thin ice and in poverty..."
At this point, Tang Yun hesitated a little, obviously unable to continue.
The young master's current life does not look like what he said.
Seeing that Sister Tang Yun stopped talking, Li Qi reminded: "Forgot again? I'll tell you again, you have to remember..."
Tang Yun grinned and said: "No need, sir, I have already written it down."
"Then why didn't you continue talking just now?"
"I just feel that the young master's words..."
"I know what you are thinking." Li Qi said, "If you don't say that, my master will definitely think that I didn't do my job properly. And I'm not lying to her. It's not like you haven't seen it during this time.
Is it so easy to be an attendant? I almost lost my life several times, and some time ago..."
Tang Yun interrupted him and said with a sweet smile: "I know, Young Master."
"To be honest, I am really reluctant to let you go to Feiyan Village. If there were no other suitable people around me, I would not let you do this." Li Qi said.
Hearing these words, Tang Yun felt as if he had eaten honey: "Don't worry, sir, I will definitely handle this matter and I will try to come back as soon as possible."
Li Qi nodded and thought: It takes more than three months one way from Kyoto to Feiyan Village. Half a year has passed since we went back and forth.
Everything is good in this era, but transportation is too inconvenient.
It's a pity that my major is not mechanical engineering, otherwise I could have built a steam car or something.
When Tang Yun set out that night, Li Qi took Wei Gang to send them out of the city.
There was no words for the whole night, and Li Qi went to the palace the next day.
He has been busy making money during this period, and he has not been to the East Palace for a long time.
As soon as he stepped into the east palace gate, Eunuch Zhao came over and said, "Master Li, you are finally here."
"What's wrong, Eunuch Zhao? What happened to the prince again?"
Eunuch Zhao looked depressed: "Isn't that right? During this time, the first thing His Highness does when he gets up every day is to ask, has Li Shidu come? I stay here every day, waiting for you to come, Mr. Li."
"So that's it. Thank you for your hard work, Eunuch Zhao." Li Qi smiled, took out a banknote and handed it over, "Be careful."
Eunuch Zhao took the banknote and smiled instantly: "Mr. Li, His Highness is in the study. Come over quickly and I will prepare tea for you."
"Okay, then it's time to thank you, father-in-law."
As soon as he entered the study, Li Qi hurriedly came to Jiang Qian: "I have seen His Highness..."
"Okay, please stop saluting. How are things going?" Jiang Qian asked anxiously.
Li Qi smiled and said: "It's all done."
"Is it done?" Jiang Qian was a little surprised.
Regarding the bank matter, Li Qi told Lu Haochu from the beginning that this matter was of great concern, so even the prince should not reveal anything until the matter was settled.
So during this period, Jiang Qian had no idea what Li Qi and Lu Haochu were doing.
It was precisely because he didn't know that he felt torture in his heart.
I'm afraid that if this matter can't be settled, I'll be in trouble.
But now when he heard Li Qi say it was done, he was a little surprised and a little happy at the same time.
The big stone hanging in my heart has finally settled!
"Sit down quickly and tell me how you did it?" Jiang Qian motioned for Li Qi to sit down and asked impatiently.
