Travel to the early Tang Dynasty and become a salted fish
Chapter 167 The bank opens with high profile
After Chu Mo sold out all the grain in the warehouse, he began to make full preparations for the opening of the bank.
The bank was chosen in Changlefang, which was closest to the East Market.
Chu Mo transferred all 200 soldiers in his hands to the area around the bank to take charge of guarding it.
He also secretly transported all the more than 2500 million taels of silver from selling grain to his underground base and hid it, plus the 900 million taels of silver that Li Shimin and several major families had invested in.
Only 10 taels of silver were left in the bank, and then a large number of silver ingots wrapped in silver powder were made and brought to the bank openly.
He also asked people to spread the news that the silver would be put into storage and sealed after three rounds of Chang'an City on the opening day of the bank.
As soon as the news came out, the whole city of Chang'an was shocked.
Even Li Shimin and several other masters sent people to ask Chu Mo whether this matter was too high-profile and would arouse the covetousness of the young people.
Chu Mo chuckled and told them that if such a large sum of silver was stolen or robbed, not to mention causing a sensation in Chang'an, even the entire Tang Dynasty and even foreign countries would know the news.
By then, our bank and His Majesty the Emperor will instantly become people's talk after dinner.
After hearing Li Junxian's report, Li Shimin immediately smashed his beloved paperweight to pieces, and then gritted his teeth and ordered all departments in Chang'an City to pay close attention to the bank's affairs.
After receiving the news, several masters were filled with hatred, but they had no choice but to send more people to patrol the surrounding areas.
Finally, the opening day came.
The streets of Changlefang were filled with soldiers guarding them.
Behind the soldiers, there was a crowd of spectators.
Chu Mo didn't do anything fancy, but stood at the door of the bank. After giving a speech, he unveiled the bank's red cloth.
I saw that it was clearly written by Li Shimin himself: "The No. [-] Bank in the World" with large gilt characters, followed by Li Shimin's private seal and name.
After Chu Mo took off the red cloth, groups of servants immediately entered the bank carrying huge boxes.
These were sent by the nobles who promised to save money during the previous banquet.
Every time a household that saves money enters, the waiter at the bank door will shout loudly and sing so-and-so, how much money has been saved.
When some children from rich families hear that their family has more money than others, they will start to brag. Those who are being compared will naturally be unwilling to do so and will return home to allocate money to defend themselves.
Anyway, everyone now knows that this bank was jointly founded by His Majesty the current emperor and Qi Wang, the fifth surname. If you are not worried about this, then just don't go out.
Of course, today's aristocratic families and nobles are not as low-key as later generations.
In an era when even the five surnames and seven kings dare to compete with the royal family, how low-key do you want them to be?
Some wealthy households who originally just wanted to save some daily expenses were immediately reassured when they saw this situation.
So many people are rushing to deposit money into the bank, which shows that this bank is not opened casually.
Chu Mo looked at the servants coming in and out, carrying large boxes, and the smile on his face never stopped.
After a morning of busy work, by noon, the peak of saving money seemed to have dropped a lot.
Chu Mo waved his hand and asked shopkeeper Liu to take the people and act according to the previous plan.
Shopkeeper Liu was not worried about the parade at first, but when he saw soldiers everywhere, he felt more at ease.
Sure enough, as soon as they took action, the surrounding soldiers started to move.
The guard servants sent by the major aristocratic families and originally hiding in the crowd also started to move.
When the first carriage carrying a whole cart of gold and silver appeared in front of everyone, some people with ulterior motives around them began to make moves.
Just when they were about to make a move, a group of burly men suddenly gathered around them and silently dragged them to the back of the crowd.
As the first carriage appeared, the following carriages drove out from behind the bank as if there was no end.
There were 30 carriages, each carrying a cart full of gold and silver.
Looking at the deeply sagging wheels, passers-by can guess how much money is on them.
Although the gold and silver carried by the 30-two-horse carriage was not much, the visual impact of the white and yellow gold and silver was so shocking.
On this day, the entire Chang'an City Imperial Guard moved with this group of carriages.
Li Shimin of the East Palace once again fucked up Chu Mo, a so immoral and smoking thing, a thousand times before.
But when I heard that the convoy was traveling, I immediately climbed up the city wall of Zhuque Gate to watch the rare spectacle.
When he saw countless Imperial Guard swords unsheathed, they were guarding the convoy like a forest of enemies.
When he saw countless people swarming out, they followed the convoy on their own.
When he saw Chu Mo riding a black horse and walking at the front, he wanted to smash his shoes off the city wall and kill this turtle grandson.
Although he is playing happily now, it is based on the situation that he mobilized a large number of soldiers and forcibly wiped out those accidents.
He stole the show today, but he still had to help him clean up the mess behind it.
If the aristocratic families of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes hadn't also participated in it, I might as well have been drowned in all the excerpts from those participating in the concert tomorrow morning.
Although Chu Mo's limelight this time attracted the attention of the people of Chang'an, the bank also gained public recognition.
However, it has also aroused the covetousness of many people in the dark.
And Chu Xin, who had just entered the city in the morning, stood on top of a restaurant and saw Chu Mo who was in high spirits.
She has lost contact with her brother since he left Luoyang and went to Chang'an to cancel their engagement.
Until one day, she heard from her subordinates that there were several people with Chang'an accents who, for some unknown reason, were asking for news about their family.
When Chu Xin first heard the report from her subordinates, she didn't take it seriously.
After all, my family has been developing rapidly recently, and it is normal for some people to inquire about the news.
But as soon as he turned around, he heard the servants in the mansion reporting the same matter.
And told Chu Xin that when the other party inquired, the focus was on Chu Mo.
As a result, Chu Xin had doubts in her heart.
My brother went to Chang'an, and there was no news about him. Why did he provoke a group of people to investigate?
After that, several waves of people came one after another, all investigating Chu Mo, even his daily words and deeds were investigated in extremely detail.
The bank was chosen in Changlefang, which was closest to the East Market.
Chu Mo transferred all 200 soldiers in his hands to the area around the bank to take charge of guarding it.
He also secretly transported all the more than 2500 million taels of silver from selling grain to his underground base and hid it, plus the 900 million taels of silver that Li Shimin and several major families had invested in.
