"Master, what should we do now? Where can we collect so much cash in one day? Moreover, I heard that Yanhuang Bank will not only not lend us money anymore, but even if we want to go to Yanhuang Bank to exchange for Tang Yuan, Or even save money! In this case, our store’s business may be greatly affected!”
In An's house, the old housekeeper bowed to An Shuncai and asked worriedly.
Anjia has dozens of shops in Chang'an City, which involve various industries such as cloth, jade, pawns, etc., such as "consumer" shops such as clothing shops and jade shops. The ban of Yanhuang Bank will not have any obvious impact on them. Impact, because they collect money from consumers on weekdays. Even if they sometimes need to make change, they can maintain balance by using the Tang Yuan collected from consumers;
But shops like pawn shops that give out money have to give out a lot of Tang Yuan every day. Nowadays, Tang Yuan has been widely popular and accepted by most people. After getting used to the convenience of Tang Yuan, would those who come to pawn shops to pawn their belongings be willing to accept a basket of copper coins or a stack of Tang Yuan
Therefore, without the support of Yanhuang Bank, shops like Anjia Pawn Shop will soon be in trouble!
"Hmph! You and others should first check how much cash is in each shop's account. If it's not enough, I will think of other ways!"
Anshun frowned, pondered for a moment, and then said to the old housekeeper.
He knew in his heart that this was just a temporary measure in the final analysis. If he wanted to do business in Datang, he could not do without dealing with Yanhuang Bank. Only by finding a way to lift the ban on Yanhuang Bank could the problem be fundamentally solved!
"Yes! Old slave, go now!"
The old housekeeper cupped his hands and turned to leave, but he couldn't help but have a look of worry on his face.
Anshuncai sighed and walked straight to the study. He had to write to Taiyuan as soon as possible and ask Anshuncai about the specific situation of Taiyuan. By the way, he also had to invite the famous Anguo businessmen in Chang'an City to come to his house to discuss matters.
As for the Kangguo merchants in the city, Kang Fuliang sent someone to invite them.
About a quarter of an hour later, Anshun walked out of the study and called two slaves: "Xia Dong, Anwu!"
"master!"
The two house slaves ran over quickly after hearing the sound.
Anshun took out a letter from his sleeve, handed it to one of the slaves, and said: "Xia Dong, ride on your horse immediately, take this letter to Taiyuan, and hand it to the second master... If Taiyuan City cannot be entered, , just wait outside the city until the city gate opens!"
Although the servant was curious after hearing this, how could Taiyuan City with such a big heart close the city gate for no reason? But when he saw An Shuncai's serious face, he didn't dare to ask in detail. He quickly took the letter and bowed: "Yes! Master! I will definitely deliver the letter to the second master!"
This "second master" is naturally Anshun Mountain!
Anshun nodded and signaled that the slave could leave. Then he took out a list, handed it to another slave, and ordered: "Anwu, take my name, visit the bosses on the list, and tell them , I have an urgent matter and invite them to my house to discuss it, please make sure they come in person in the morning!"
"Yes! Master!"
The slave took the list and left with the order.

"... I received news from the border last night. Yesterday, there was a sudden frost on the grassland. Such an abnormal celestial phenomenon caused rumors to spread in the grassland. Ever since Jieli became the Great Khan of the Turks, the grassland tribes have long been concerned about him. I am dissatisfied. The frost in midsummer has given those tribes an opportunity to attack Jieli. Therefore, I have ordered Tang Jian, who is sent as an envoy to the grassland, to secretly incite various tribes to fight against Jieli and help Tuli break out of the encirclement. The troops on the northern border The tense situation will also be eased in the near future, which buys us precious time to prepare for the Northern Expedition!"
In the morning, after Li Er dealt with the matters reported by various ministers, he announced good news to the officials.
His words were concealed, and he did not tell the officials that he had secretly sent Tang Jian to sneak into the grassland and use the "midsummer frost" prophecy to incite rebellion in various grassland tribes. The main reason was that the prophecy was not easy to tell to the officials. Officials explain!
The reason why Tang Jian agreed to Li Er at the beginning was mainly because of their previous personal relationship and his trust in Li Er. He believed that since Li Er said that frost would fall on the grassland in midsummer, it would definitely come true; but the civil and military officials would not act like this. Tang Jian also had unconditional trust in Li Er. They would not believe that Li Er could have predicted that there would be an abnormal celestial phenomenon of midsummer frost on the grassland more than ten days ago!
If Li Er wants to explain clearly, he will definitely move Li Zexuan, the closed disciple of the first Taoist sect, which will violate his original intention and inevitably move Li Zexuan to the opposite side of Tang Jian's family!
After all, as soon as this news came out, Tang Jian's family would easily think that Tang Jian's secret plan to sneak into Turks and execute it was Li Zexuan's idea!
"What? Frost falls in midsummer in the Turks? How is this possible?"
After hearing the news from Li Er, all the ministers were shocked. On the faces of Cheng Yaojin and Qin Qiong, in addition to shock, there was also a hint of surprise that was not easy to detect. In other words, the two of them knew Li Zexuan originally proposed the differentiation plan to Li Er, and they knew very well that the key to the success of Li Zexuan's differentiation plan was whether there would be abnormal weather with midsummer frost on the grassland at the end of July!
Now that frost has fallen on the grassland at the end of July, Li Zexuan's plan is more than half successful. The Turks' attack on the Tang Dynasty is very likely to be delayed because of this!
In this way, Datang will have more time to prepare for war with the Turks!
A frost, with the clever use of Li Zexuan and Li Er, actually allowed Datang to directly turn from passive to active. This will most likely become the key to the victory of the two countries' national war!
Don't underestimate this. After this incident, if there is a rebellion in the Turks, Jieli will definitely be in trouble. When the national war will start, it will not be the Turks who have the final say, but the Tang Dynasty. The final word!
"Abnormal celestial phenomena have occurred in the Turks. In addition, there are different people's hearts among the grassland tribes. Civil strife is about to break out in the Turks. I would like to congratulate Your Majesty and the Tang Dynasty!"
In the court hall, because of Li Er's sudden announcement, the officials were talking a lot. At this time, Qin Qiong stepped forward, clasped his fist to Li Er and said loudly.
Li Er did not tell Li Zexuan's plan of differentiation exactly. Qin Qiong, as Li Zexuan's adoptive father, naturally would not tell him. Lao Qin was really relieved at this time. As long as the Turks brought frost at the end of July, Tang Dynasty Jian would not have died on the grassland, Li Zexuan's plan of differentiation would have succeeded, and he would not have been worried about this matter!
