The Imperial Peasant Girl is Both Enigmatic and Dashing

Chapter 110: She can have as many silver notes as she wants!

Views: NaN

The next day, it was still dark.

When Xingnong woke up, Chu Tiankuo was no longer in the study, and she didn't know when he left.

Soon Songbai came to call her to have breakfast: "Miss Xingnong, hurry up, the group downstairs has also woken up. They probably want to leave early while it's still light and there's no one around. Let's go meet her and see her expression when she pays the money."

Xing Nong's eyebrows curved: "Okay."

So they hurriedly had breakfast and went downstairs to check out.

It was still early and no one was awake yet.

Downstairs, Zhao Luran and others were checking out.

The shopkeeper said expressionlessly, "200,000 taels."

Yang Xie was about to ask his followers to give him some silver, but was stunned when he heard this: "How much?"

Why did he seem to hear two hundred thousand taels

You must have heard it wrong!

Two hundred thousand taels would be enough to buy ten restaurants like this!

Is it twenty taels

Zhao Luran and others also suspected that they had heard it wrong.

I said ten thousand more words!

"Twenty taels?" Zhao Luran replied.

After hearing what Zhao Luran said, Yang Xie thought he had really heard wrongly: "Give me twenty taels. I didn't expect that the price of your guest house in Tian'an City of Chu State is quite reasonable. It's really too expensive in Zhao State!"

He said, this is not the imperial palace!

How is it possible to make 100,000 taels in one night

He took out twenty taels and put them on the table.

The shopkeeper smiled and said respectfully, "You two are joking. Twenty taels, a pot of tea here costs two hundred thousand taels! Because you have booked the entire third floor's top-level private room, each room costs ten thousand taels per night, so the total is two hundred thousand taels!!"

The shopkeeper deliberately emphasized the three words "two hundred thousand".

Several people: “… … ..”

He might as well just rob!

Yang Xie: "Two hundred thousand taels? Are you deliberately bullying us? One private room costs ten thousand taels per night! Aren't you going to rob us? Are you running a restaurant or an inn, or a palace?"

Upon hearing this, the shopkeeper pointed to a sign not far away and said, "The price is clearly marked. Didn't you know the price when you came to stay here? You are all people of status. You are not going to default on your bill and eat a free meal, are you? I have already charged you for your meal!"

Zhao Luran sneered: "We have stayed in the Yingbin Building all the way here, and it's only a few hundred taels per night! You are clearly trying to rip us off. Why didn't you tell us the price when we checked in?"

Shopkeeper: "You didn't ask at the time! Besides, it was written on the sign, didn't you see it?"

When they came the night before, the shop was closed. The store was dark with only an oil lamp lit, and the owner was sure that they didn't even notice the sign.

Yang Xie said angrily: "You are a shady shop! You are clearly trying to cheat us out of our money! Where did the sign come from? I didn't even see it! I will give you 20 taels today, you can take it if you want, but you have to take it if you don't want!"

Chu Tiankuo and Xingnong walked down at this time.

Song Bai took out a stack of silver bills, slapped them hard on the table, in front of Zhao Luran and others, then pushed them with his hand to reveal the face value of each silver bill!

Each silver note has a face value of 10,000 taels.

"The shopkeeper is going to settle the matter. Here is a 180,000 tael of silver note. It's the money used to reserve the six private rooms on the fourth floor!"

Songbai looked at the other party with disdain after he finished speaking, "If you don't have money, don't follow their example and book the entire private room. Wouldn't it be cheaper if a few people squeezed into one room? The restaurant has clearly marked the price, but you still refuse to pay! You want to refuse to pay for losing yesterday, and you want to refuse to pay for staying in the inn today. What are you going to refuse to pay next time? The formation master competition? Say your opponent cheated, and then take back the first place!"

Xing Nong waved her folding fan and smiled contemptuously: "I didn't expect that the princess of Zhao State, a genius array master, would have no money to pay for the room! But, if you don't have money, forget it,"

At this point, Xing Nong turned to look at Xu Yan: "Mr. Xu is famous all over the world, he wouldn't stay in an inn and think about..."

Xu Yan's face darkened as he said to his steward, "Pay the money!"

The old steward: "..."

The master only took one hundred taels of silver notes with him when he went out, because he thought that since he was going out with his two apprentices, he didn't need to pay any money.

Bringing a hundred taels of silver is just in case.

After all, the princess's maternal grandfather's family runs a money shop and they never lack money.

"Master, let me do it! Shaoyao pays the money!" Zhao Luran became furious when he saw Xingnong. He lost face yesterday and suffered the most humiliation he had ever experienced in his life, all because of this man!

Today they checked out early in the morning just because they didn't want to meet them.

I didn't expect them to come down so early.

She even suspected that they had colluded with the owner of the Yingbin Building to deliberately cheat her out of her money!

If this reception building was not opened by people from Jin, she would have had this suspicion.

Humph, one day, she will get justice!

She wants them to return what they got from her a hundredfold or a thousandfold!

Chu people want to participate in the formation master competition? Then see you in the general competition! See you in Zhao!

Shaoyao immediately opened a rattan woven handbag filled with banknotes. She took out a large stack of banknotes and began to count them.

Zhao Luran didn't feel bad either, because her maternal grandparents were the owners of Qian's Money House, which was spread across four countries!

To her, these banknotes were just printed paper!

She can have as many banknotes as she wants!

My uncle said that nowadays, most of the transactions among merchants from various countries are conducted with the silver bills issued by Qian's bank, and few people would actually use hundreds of thousands or even millions of taels of silver for transactions.

Few people would go to their money houses to exchange large amounts of cash.

So their silver notes were silver! She could ask him for as much as she wanted, and he would give her that much.

Zhao Luran looked at Xingnong proudly.

Xing Nong smiled and said, "Princess Zhao is indeed very wealthy!"

Zhao Luran's maid couldn't help but say, "Not only is my princess of noble status, but her maternal grandfather also owns a bank! The Qian family bank that has branches all over the four countries belongs to my princess's maternal grandfather!"

Xing Nong took a look at the basket of banknotes and smiled: "Really? No wonder he is so wealthy!"

Xing Nong said to Chu Tiankuo, "Let's go!"

Several people left the restaurant.

In the carriage, Xingnong looked thoughtful.

Chu Tiankuo poured her a cup of tea: "What are you thinking about?"

"I was thinking, can my grandparents take out baskets of silver bills when they open a bank? It's as if those silver bills can be printed at will. I'm a little worried. Well, I'd better take out all the silver from Qian's Bank! This Qian's Bank can't keep storing silver anymore. Who knows what will happen in the future."

She would have to propose it to her partner.

Chu Tiankuo's heart moved when he heard this.

Of course, a money shop cannot print banknotes at will.

The number of silver notes in circulation must correspond to the actual amount of silver and gold.

Qian's Bank was the royal bank of the State of Zhao, which means that it was supported by the treasury of the State of Zhao.

Therefore, people from the four countries felt at ease using the silver bills issued by Qian's Bank when doing business and trade.

If...

hehe!

A hint of bloody cruelty flashed in Chu Tiankuo's eyes.
