Chapter 78: I was shocked and didn’t understand!
If you want to accuse someone of a crime, you can always find a pretext.
If they say you are plotting treason, then you are plotting treason!
The tactic of hiding armor is very common and has always been effective.
The Zhang family was just an ordinary aristocratic family and could not be compared with the Han royal family like Liu Yan.
When he saw that Chengjin Money House had grown to such a scale, he naturally wanted to take over Chengjin Money House by any means necessary.
When the peaches are ripe, they can be picked.
If the Zhang family guards dare to resist, it would be a real rebellion, and killing all nine generations of the family would not be too much.
The situation has reached this point and is almost a dead end.
Zhang Jue couldn't help laughing when he saw this scene. "Sure enough, when the business reaches this level, people will come to pick peaches. Although two years have passed, allicin and penicillin have been researched, and you have traveled around and almost finished writing the barefoot doctor manual, your Chengjin Bank has developed too fast. It still makes people jealous."
"Such a huge fortune is not something you can control, nor is it something the Zhang family can keep."
"Don't mention that Zhang Zonghan is no longer an official appointed by the court. Even if he is an official in the court, what does it matter? He still can't keep this incredible wealth!"
"Originally... if you had been honest and dedicated in developing your career, the simulation should have ended here. Your great cause has not even started yet, and it has already ended in failure."
"But this time, Liu Yan didn't expect that this Chengjin Bank was not a real bank at all."
As Zhang Jue talked to himself, the words in the book continued to evolve.
[Liu Yan surrounded the entire Zhang family and wanted to execute most of the Zhang family members for the crime of rebellion, and then take the mastermind away.]
[A family massacre is about to happen, but you are not panicking at all, as if you have already anticipated this step.]
[You and Liu Yan are quite familiar with each other. He has deposited 50 million yuan in your Chengjin Bank, which makes him a rare big customer. But he is obviously not satisfied with this little money. He wants to take over the entire Chengjin Bank and the entire Chengjin Chamber of Commerce! ]
[When everyone else looked ashen, and even your father Zhang Zonghan was at a loss, you bowed to Liu Yan and asked with a smile: Governor, can you listen to me?]
【Liu Yan looked at you sideways, smiled and asked: "You are about to die, what do you have to say? Tell me and see if you can convince me."】
[A year ago, Liu Yan gave Emperor Liu Hong a bad idea, appointing trusted clan members as local leaders, giving local governments more power, and changing the governor to a provincial governor. The governor was only an inspector, while the provincial governor was an administrative officer, and their nature was completely different.]
【Liu Hong actually agreed to Liu Yan's request. With his efforts, he was appointed as the governor of Jingzhou. After arriving here, he comforted the people, took in refugees, fought against the tyrants, and gradually established his own army. In Jingzhou, he was able to cover the sky with one hand. It was as easy for him to crush the Zhang family as to crush a fly.】
[In Liu Yan's opinion, the world will be in chaos one day. If he wants to start a big event, then using the money from the Chengjin Chamber of Commerce as his military expenses is the most appropriate.]
[What Liu Yan didn't expect was that you took out several account books and said seriously: "Sir, this is the general account book of Chengjin Chamber of Commerce and Chengjin Bank. It shows how many people have deposited money in the bank, how much interest and principal will be withdrawn after maturity, and how much profit the Chamber of Commerce has made in its many businesses. If you want to take over Chengjin Bank and Chamber of Commerce, this should be what you need most."
[Liu Yan was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately asked someone to bring these account books over.]
[Liu Yan smiled and said: Although you are very sensible, your Zhang family is guilty of treason, which is unforgivable. I can only take over Chengjin Chamber of Commerce and Chengjin Bank with great reluctance, and leave you with an intact body! This is my kindness! ]
[You smiled and said: My Lord Governor, I think you don’t understand what I mean.]
[Liu Yan frowned and asked: What do you mean? You...]
[Before he finished speaking, the chief secretary beside Liu Yan changed his expression, screamed, and almost dropped the account book in his hand to the ground! ]
【Liu Yan quickly turned around and asked what was going on?】
[The Chief Secretary pointed out the details of the account book and pointed out the problem with a grim expression. If Liu Yan wanted to take over Chengjin Bank and Chengjin Chamber of Commerce, he would have to put at least 1 billion yuan into it, and he would have to endure continuous losses! He would have to put at least hundreds of millions of yuan into it every year!]
【Liu Yan's face changed drastically, he couldn't believe it at all. He said angrily: This account book is fabricated! Your Chengjin Bank's lending business is so good, and the Chengjin Chamber of Commerce's business is so good, it's not too much to make a fortune every day, how could it be possible to lose so much?】
【The Chief Secretary said: Every number on this account book matches. The interest rate of Chengjin Bank is very low. The profit obtained cannot make up for the interest. The loss is too much! In addition, the expenses of Chengjin Chamber of Commerce are very terrible. They built medical schools, trained doctors, planted medicinal materials, researched drugs, and cultivated various crops. In addition, they also carried out various free relief and saved countless poor people and patients. They spent too much money, so that Chengjin Chamber of Commerce is simply a crazy money-burning machine.】
[Liu Yan's eyes widened, he was shocked for a moment, and he didn't understand! ]
[You smiled and said: "Of course this account book is real. There are hundreds of detailed account books. If you want to see them, I can take them out for you to review. If you are willing to take over Chengjin Bank, we will die without regrets."]
【Liu Yan's expression changed again and again. He stared at you intently and asked viciously: From the beginning, did you not intend to make money with Chengjin Bank?】
[You nodded calmly and said: From the beginning, this Chengjin Bank was not a business.]
【Liu Yan was speechless for a moment. He would never take over this hot potato unless he was unwilling to repay the debt! But if he took over but didn't pay back the money, he would lose the support of the people in Jingzhou and would not be able to do anything!】
[In a word, power is always from the bottom up, not from the top down! The people's will is everything! ]
[Liu Yan still doesn't believe, or rather doesn't want to believe, that his great plan has failed. He asks you to move out all the account books.]
[You readily agreed and asked the Zhang family to bring out all the account books for the governor to review! ]
[The accounts were checked one by one and they all matched. There was indeed a huge hole in Chengjin Bank and Chengjin Chamber of Commerce! ]
[Liu Yan was furious and asked you to withdraw the money you had deposited. He didn't want to put the money in such a dangerous bank.]
[But you smiled and said: You don't have to do that. Chengjin Bank will expand to the whole Han Dynasty. When the time comes, there will be more money coming in. This ten billion hole is nothing. On the contrary, you can deposit another fifty million and earn more interest. After three years, that will be two hundred and fifty million! Don't worry, I will definitely pay your interest first! You can rest assured about this! Don't worry that we can't get the money.]
[Liu Yan thought about it again and again, and actually agreed to your request. Not only did he not kill people to seize power, but he continued to save 50 million yuan. Since Chengjin Bank will eventually sink, he will take more money before the ship sinks. There will be no problem! Anyway, he will definitely not be the last one to jump off the ship! ]
[As for the news that the Zhang family rebelled and Chengjin Bank was to be investigated, you took out the 50 million yuan that the governor had just deposited. The governor did not come here to confiscate the family's property, but to bring troops to deposit money! He deposited 50 million yuan before, and now he has deposited another 50 million yuan, a total of 100 million yuan. How much trust does he have in our Chengjin Bank! ]
Seeing this, Zhang Jue clapped his hands and laughed, saying with a smile: "It's like trying to get the skin of a tiger, dancing on a tightrope, cheating all the money of the wealthy families into his own hands, and then using it for the poor at the bottom. In this way, he can help the whole world. What regrets are there in dying?"
"However, once the thunderstorm arrives, the consequences are unimaginable. You should have left a way out for yourself, right?"
