The other is silver notes. If you go to the money house to exchange them, if the amount is huge, you need to say hello in advance. Then the money house will be transported from various places. The waiting time will be longer. Moreover, Ruan Chong dare not exchange too much at one time, because this will arouse the money house's suspicion and vigilance.

The demise of the Beijiang Association is currently under confidentiality. Once the news is leaked and the government intervenes in, the result is...

The war situation in Champo has reached a decisive moment, and Nguyen Zhongzang urgently needs support.

Under such circumstances, Ruan Chong, despite Hu Chongzhi's dissuasion, decided to speed up the progress and exchange all the silver notes in his hand into cash at one time.

I can change as much as I can, and I don’t want the rest. Then I go to Zhanpo and I’m not back.

After half a year of exchange, Ruan Chong had about 2.3 million taels left in the silver notes in his hand.

Once you make a decision, you will naturally take action immediately.

Ruan Chong was actually very cautious. He spread out more than 2 million taels of silver notes and exchanged them all at once in one go in 16 different money houses, including Hedong, Henan, Huainan, Huainan and Jiangnan.

More than two million is definitely very huge for a money bank, but if it is spread out to sixteen money bank, it is not particularly huge and will not attract attention.

But Ruan Chong and Hu Chongzhi still miscalculated.

Silver notes appeared very early, and can be traced back to the Wuzong period.

Silver notes were first freely issued by merchants.

When Zhao Zhi's succession began, there were bank notes stores specializing in cash custody business for merchants carrying huge sums of money in Shannan, Hedong and Jiangnan.

The depositor delivers the cash bank to the shop. The shop temporarily fills in the amount of cash bank deposited by the depositor on the roll made of mulberry paper and then returns it to the depositor. The depositor does not need to bring a huge amount of silver. When the depositor withdraws the cash bank, he pays the shop a certain amount of interest, which is also called a storage fee.

This kind of mulberry paper coupon that temporarily fills in the deposit amount is called a silver note.

At this time, the silver notes were just the most primitive deposit and withdrawal certificates and could not be circulated.

With the development of the commodity economy, the use of silver notes has become more and more widespread. Many merchants jointly established silver notes shops that specialize in issuing and redemption of Jiaozi, and set up silver notes branches in various places. With the increase of silver notes shops in Guannei, for example, when Zhao Zhi succeeded to the throne, there were more than 30 silver notes shops, and almost every state had silver notes shops. Therefore, silver notes can be widely used, and it is extremely convenient to deposit and withdraw silver notes with silver notes. In this case, slowly, in Guannei, silver notes are not only circulated among merchants, but are widely used in all industries and everyone.

Therefore, the silver bills slowly are almost equivalent to coins.

Because silver notes shops adhere to their trust and take them as they come, the printed silver notes are carefully marked, black and red are incorrect, and the letters are written by themselves are difficult for others to forge, so silver notes have won a high reputation.

In order to avoid the trouble of carrying coins, there are more and more cases of large-scale transactions between merchants directly using silver notes that can be converted into cash at any time to pay for the goods.

The huge benefits brought by silver notes naturally attracted the attention of the upper class.

The Jin Dynasty had two economic cores, one was the Guannei area with Fengjing as the core, and the other was the Jiangnan area with Yangzhou as the core.

Every industry has its leader, that is, the strongest and largest silver merchant in this industry, is not someone else, but the King of Ji Zhao Antong, and the Jiangnan area belongs to the Wu family.

Ruan Chong thought that the incident of changes within the Beijiang Association was very good, but the paper could not contain the fire. In the past six months, he has continuously exchanged cash cash in various places. Although the amount was not large, the number was too frequent and he only went out but did not enter.

The Beijiang Association has been destroyed, and the business will naturally be greatly reduced. Ruan Chong thought that he would be more cautious in doing things and would not have any problems, but he just ignored one problem. You exchange cash cash in silver shops in various places, but you have few storages. The Beijiang Association is a chamber of commerce with quite strong financial resources. It is absolutely against common sense to have such a situation.

Moreover, although there are many silver notes shops everywhere, the information is consistent, and Ruan Chong’s actions cannot be concealed for long.

Sure enough, the abnormality of the Beijiang Association quickly attracted the attention of King Ji Zhao Antong and the Wu family in Jiangnan. So they conducted a secret investigation and soon learned about the real situation of the Beijiang Association.

Hu Chongzhi took 800,000 taels of silver notes today and went to Jinyang Prefecture to exchange them. There was the largest silver notes shop in the entire Hedong area in the city, with only 800,000 taels of silver in cash, which was not a big problem.

The final result was that Hu Chongzhi entered the shop and was immediately ambushed. If he had not always been cautious in his work, he would have brought more than 30 guards to the city this time. Faced with the siege of hundreds of people, it would have been difficult for him to escape alive.

Afterwards, Ruan Chong took Hu Chongzhi to a room in the backyard.

There was another person in the room, Ruan Donglang, but he sat in the corner of the wall, his whole body was unkempt and tied up.

At this time, Ruan Donglang was sitting on the ground, with his eyes closed, as if he was sleeping.

Ruan Chong and Hu Chongzhi ignored Ruan Donglang on the side, sat down and then had a conversation.

Ruan Chong asked in a deep voice: "What happened?"

Hu Chongzhi sighed and told him what happened.

"As soon as I handed over the silver bill, the other party immediately took action. The purpose was obvious, and he wanted to kill me."

"Damn it, the other party wants to be shady!"

Ruan Chong gritted his teeth and said, "Why are they not afraid of spreading and destroying their reputation?"

The banknote business emphasizes reputation as the most. Once the reputation is damaged, there is no need to do this business.

Hu Chongzhi said: "The news of the Beijiang Association... is probably leaked."

Since the other party dares to do this, he must be not afraid of something big. The reason is very simple. The Beijiang Association has civil strife and hundreds of people have been killed. This is a shocking case. Once it is spread, it will inevitably cause a sensation. When the government intervenes, the first thing to do is to lock in all the property of the Beijiang Association.

Once the property is locked, everything in the Beijiang Association will become illegal. Since it is already illegal, the silver notes belonging to the Beijiang Association are a pile of waste paper.

Hu Chongzhi said in a deep voice: "No need to delay, we will leave immediately and return to Annan."

Ruan Chong said angrily: "Millions of taels of silver have been ruined in vain?"

Hu Chongzhi sighed and said, "Don't think so much. Since the other party dares to take action, he is definitely not afraid of us causing trouble. If there is such a big disturbance in the city, the Beijiang Association will probably spread soon. Once the government intervenes, the road will definitely be blocked and then a large-scale search will be carried out. By that time, we will not be able to leave even if we want to."

This time I went to the city to exchange silver notes, and more than 30 brothers, but only two of them escaped alive. Hu Chongzhi felt very uncomfortable.
