It is recorded in the file that the wealthy businessmen who came to make deposits do exist, but they have not been to the capital this year. They do have a lot of money at home, but they cannot carry out so much cash at once.
Everyone is curious. The more I am not allowed in, the more I want to get in, and the old emperor is no exception.
"Okay, you can order someone to go to Jiangnan immediately." The old emperor was not so stupid that he couldn't distinguish priorities.
According to the manager of the bank, those who come to the bank to deposit tens or millions of taels are all middle-aged people in their thirties and forties. There are no young people or older people at all.
The current person in charge of Da Qin Bank is a confidant of the old emperor. He is one of the few people who knows the truth. When he saw Qin Jiyan sending someone to get the account books, Mr. Dong, who was in charge of the bank, did not take them out immediately, but said : "There are too many account books and banknotes. If His Highness the Emperor Taisun doesn't mind, how about I send them to His Highness tonight?"
Twenty thousand horses are not many in normal times, but now the Qin Dynasty is besieged on all sides, and the capital is not safe. Qin Jiyan transfers 20,000 horses, and the defense of the capital is a little tight, and he can no longer send people to the Changsheng Sect.
In other words, those who deposited money came with false identities, and the identities recorded above will not play any role in the case...
Before the decree was sent out, Qin Jiyan came to borrow money, "Grandpa Huang, I want to borrow money from Jiangnan. There are not enough people on hand. I want to mobilize 20,000 horses to go to Jiangnan."
Because he felt guilty first, the Changsheng Sect did not dare to be presumptuous and then wrote to the old emperor to send someone.
Of course, the old emperor would not tell the Changsheng Sect that he could not draw out the troops. In his letter, he asked the people of the Changsheng Sect to take their time and let the five thousand soldiers and horses dig out first, and then he would send people there after the results were achieved.
Of course, the Eternal Life Gate did not tell the old emperor about this huge death toll. They just told the old emperor that the ruins of the Twin Cities were indeed as magical as the legend.
The old emperor was speechless when he saw the situation in Jiangnan. Faced with the hard facts, he could not say against his will that Qin Jiyan needed more than 20,000 horses.
Except for those who had taken refuge with the King of Zhou, the local officials in Jiangnan were all from several big families, such as Jiao Xiangdi who was an official in Jiangnan. Someone like Gu Qiancheng's third uncle is unexpected, but Gu Qiancheng's third uncle can also be regarded as Lord Feng's faction.
The old emperor couldn't mobilize any troops, so he turned around and sent a letter to the Immortal Sect.
Without the Fifth Prince, everything was going in a good direction at Daqin Bank. No one deposited money maliciously, and no one cashed it out maliciously.
Of course, these are matters of the Immortality Sect and have nothing to do with Qin Jiyan. Qin Jiyan is currently busy with the case of missing money from the treasury.
There are dragon and phoenix fruits related to immortality in the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Cities. A mere five thousand people are nothing in the eyes of the old emperor. The old emperor didn't even think about it and dispatched five thousand experts from the defense troops in the capital. It's just...
They have found a way to enter the city, but the city has a formation. Five thousand people are not enough to break the formation. They asked the old emperor to send another five thousand people to support one or two.
The people of Yaowang Valley have always been afraid of the Immortality Sect. Even if they knew that the Eternal Life Sect was pushing them to die, they could only endure it.
In this case, this case will be difficult to handle!
Obviously, what Qin Jiyan said about borrowing money was to use force to borrow money. To suppress the local wealthy merchants in Jiangnan, troops are indispensable.
These Jiangnan officials with family support could help Qin Jiyan borrow money, but they themselves were only in charge of civilian duties in Jiangnan, and most of the military deployments were made by people from the Zhou Wang faction.
When Daqin Bank first opened, many people came to deposit money, but the fifth prince and the bank manager were impressed by people who deposited large amounts of money.
The dragon and phoenix fruits are very important, but the Shuangcheng ruins are within the territory of Daqin and cannot be escaped. Digging later or slower will not have much impact, but the matter of silver cannot be delayed.
In order not to make people suspicious, Daqin Bank has been operating normally. Many people deposit and withdraw money every day, and cooperation with major banks is also on track.
As for the so-called disciples of everyone, the old emperor also asked people to check them one by one. The names recorded above were either dead or in their 80s, which were completely inconsistent with the people who came to deposit money.
In order to investigate this case, Qin Jiyan didn't even return to Prince Qin's palace. As soon as he left the palace, he went to the six gates and asked someone to go to Daqin Bank to get the account books and sealed banknotes.
The people from King Zhou's faction had very good relations with local wealthy businessmen, so it was impossible for them to lend money to Qin Jiyan. Even if you take action for the sake of face, it will only be worth two in ten thousand at most.
Business people can never have that much cash on hand. Their money has been deposited in the bank for a long time, and they only have stacks of banknotes in their hands.
"Thank you, Grandpa Huang." After successfully completing the task, Qin Jiyan left with peace of mind.
Five thousand people died in the ruins, but the people of the Changsheng Sect did not give up. Instead, they asked the old emperor to send another five thousand people to dig out the ruins of the Twin Cities no matter what.
"Grandpa Huang, the wealthy merchants in Jiangnan are the richest in the world. They have thousands or not tens of thousands of servants. How can they borrow money obediently if they have few soldiers and horses." Qin Jiyan reported the situation about the wealthy merchants in Jiangnan that he had investigated in advance. In front of the old emperor, "the four wealthy merchants in the south of the Yangtze River, Ma, Shi, Liu, and Xue, each have thousands of wealthy slaves in their families, and the total is far more than 20,000 people. In addition, the local government has connections with the four wealthy merchants, so the number is small." Jiangnan can’t use it at all.”
The ruins of the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Cities seemed like a cursed place. After the five thousand elite soldiers were sent in as cannon fodder by the Eternal Life Gate, they turned into corpses and appeared at the foot of the mountain within a few days.
Of course, they also tactfully mentioned in the letter that the Dragon and Phoenix Twin Cities would spend so much energy to prevent people from entering, which means that there must be valuable things inside.
The old emperor refused to contribute, and the Eternal Life Sect did not want to sacrifice its own manpower. In desperation, the Eternal Life Sect contacted the people from Yaowang Valley and asked Yaowang Valley to send people to help them.
The file was immediately presented to Qin Jiyan's case, and the suspicious people on it were all highlighted with red pen.
The five thousand troops sent by the old emperor were all destroyed in the ruins of the twin cities!
These people's apparent identities include wealthy merchants from the south of the Yangtze River, some are businessmen, and some are children of an unknown family. The old emperor has sent people to verify these identities. The identities are correct, but there is something wrong with them.
The old emperor's reason was so high-sounding that the Immortal Sect couldn't fault it at all. After receiving the letter, the people of the Changsheng Sect felt very uneasy. They were worried that the old emperor knew that five thousand people had died? Or is it because they are dissatisfied that they have no achievements and only want people
People from the Changsheng Sect will write to the old emperor again, requesting to send more manpower there, because...
Qin Jiyan only sent two people here, and they just said hello. After hearing Mr. Dong's words, both parties had no objections. They only brought the bank's files on depositors' records.
Even the dossier contains more than a dozen volumes. However, as soon as these dozen files were placed in the box containing the silver, others only thought that these two people had obtained it.
"Twenty thousand people? You want so many people?" When the old emperor heard this, he immediately frowned.
