Chapter 1243 Add Money

"On the second day after the bank opened, Dong Hu's family came to the bank in person and gave us twelve thousand taels of cash. They also said they were not part of the family and just wanted to help the farmers." Dou Shaodong's family is sinister, although there is no It was clearly said that the money given by the Xu family was small, but the matter of the money given by the Hu Dong family was also mentioned.

The last sentence is: "Dong Hu's family is not only very righteous, but also very considerate. They sent cash directly, which saved us the trouble of using banknotes to exchange for silver. After all, what the farmers want is cash."

After hearing this, Mr. Xu's face looked very bright. He wanted to smile to relieve his embarrassment, but he was too angry and couldn't smile. Instead, his old face turned into a rather hideous one.

Xu Zhaoming hurriedly spoke to his family: "Dou Shaodong's family, our Xu family has many members and relatives, as well as many clerks and tenant farmers. These people also need money to pay taxes. Grandpa lent the money to them, and the money at home has gone." It's quite a lot, so I gave you seven thousand taels of silver notes... Don't think it's too little."

Mr. Xu became even more angry when he heard this. How could his precious scholar Jin Sun swallow his anger and explain to Dou Shaodong's family?

This Dou Shaodong family is such a bully. Even though they have been given money, they still insist on stabbing their family. Is it interesting?

Interesting.

Dou Shaodong's family has been so busy recently that he almost died suddenly. He looks at the accounts every day and his head is dizzy. He will feel better if he hurts others by saying a few words.

Gu Jinan shook his head and said to Mr. Xu, "Brother Dou has such a temper, don't worry about it."

As he spoke, he looked towards Dou Shaodong's house.

Seeing this, Dou Shaodong's family could only ask Dou Zhi to take a few famous cards to Mr. Xu: "You should keep it. At critical moments, you can take the famous cards to Dou's shop or the local government office to ask for help."

He has a lot of business in Jiangnan, and every government office in Jiangnan wants to sell him some face.

Mr. Xu was so excited that he took the name card tremblingly and said, "Dou Shaodong's family, I thank you very much."

And Gu Jinan...

"Brother An, Grandpa Xu, thank you."

Without Gu Jinan, Dou Shaodong's family would not have given the Xu family a name card so easily.

This marriage is truly a match. Even though the Xu family is just Gu Dexing's in-laws, Gu Jinan still takes care of them.

Mr. Xu pointed to the two food boxes placed on the table and said, "These are home-cooked tonics and some filling pastries. You can eat some before you get busy."

Dou Shaodong's family took a look and said, "Dou Zhi, take it to the backyard and give it to Brother Xing and the others."

He doesn't eat. Who knows if the food outside has been tampered with.

Mr. Xu is a sensible person. When the matter was finished, Dou Shaodong's family did not blame him, but said goodbye: "There are many things in the bank, so I won't bother you anymore."

As soon as he finished speaking, a group of government servants came to the bank gate. Luo Wu walked in. After asking about Dou Shaodong's house in the next wing, he went in directly.

After seeing the Xu family's ancestors and grandchildren, he paused and felt that they were trustworthy, so he said directly: "Dou Shaodong's family, An Ge'er, and Su Tongzhi from Fucheng are here. The county magistrate asked you to go to the county government office immediately."

Dou Shaodong closed his eyes and slapped himself on the forehead: "Gu Jin'an, what are you talking about? What you just said last night has come true today. I don't want to go to Fucheng!"

Gu Jinan said last night that in the near future, the ancient prefect will definitely summon him to the prefecture to discuss matters about new banks in various places. By then, the prefects from other prefectures will definitely come back, and he will not be able to escape this trip.

Mr. Xu's eyes lit up. Su Tongzhi from Fucheng came to personally invite Dou Shaodong's family to Fucheng? This face is not ordinary.

Luo Wu didn't care whether Dou Shaodong's family was happy or not, but he urged: "Dou Shaodong's family, Brother An, please pack up quickly and follow me to the county government office."

Gu Jinan nodded and said to Dou Shaodong's family: "Brother Dou, let's go."

Since you can't escape, then go and see him in a hurry.

Dou Shaodong's family looked very ugly, but they could only nod and follow Luo Wu and the others.

Mr. Xu didn't stay long and left the bank. After getting on the mule cart, he said to Xu Zhaoming: "When you get back, go and exchange three thousand taels of cash and send it to Doou Bank."

"Return it as a gift?" Xu Zhaoming frowned and said, "Didn't Grandpa say that the world is not good nowadays and money is hard to earn, so we should keep some money for emergencies?"

Mr. Xu glared at him and said, "Are you really a fool for studying? Didn't you hear that Su Tongzhi from Lian Fucheng came to invite Dou Shaodong to his house in person? This guy named Dou is not simple. After opening a bank to lend money to farmers, he He is no longer a businessman, but a righteous man who is praised by others. Even the arrogant literati dare not call him a profiteer. It was not easy for our family to win over such a backer through brother Xing. Maintain it.”

Mr. Xu held the name card given by Dou Shaodong's family and said: "What are you afraid of giving up some money? With these name cards, it will be difficult for those bastards in Fucheng and Jiangnan to suppress our Xu family. Our family will send 10,000 taels of silver to Dou." The young master still made a profit."

"Yes, my grandson understands. We will do it immediately after we return." Xu Zhaoming responded, and then asked: "What about the eldest sister's dowry? Will it still be reduced?"

After the tax issue came out, Mr. Xu knew that Da Chu was going to be in trouble. He wanted to hold on to the family's money, so he talked about reducing Xu Zhong's dowry.

Mr. Xu wanted to hit Xu Zhaoming when he heard this: "Reduction for what? Your cousin has finally found a good home, how can you reduce her dowry? Take away the daily expenses at home, as well as the money you spent on socializing, Zhong Yatou's The dowry money will not be reduced."

Xu Zhong is now the bargaining chip for the Xu family to gain access to the Gu family, the Ouyang family, the Dou family, and even the Zheng family. How can they treat her badly?

The dowry must be sufficient, and Gu Dexing must be treated well, so that if something happens to Dachu in the future, the Xu family can also rely on the Gu family to get a series of protection.

"The fiancé of the second girl of the Gu family is Qin Baihu. Qin Baihu is General Guo's favorite general. When he and the second girl of the Gu family were engaged in the engagement ceremony, General Guo came in person... If something happens to Da Chu in the future, Those who have soldiers in their hands are the real backers." Mr. Xu looked at Xu Zhaoming with a foxy glint in his eyes, and explained this relationship to Xu Zhaoming one by one.

Xu Zhaoming was surprised when he heard this and said, "Grandpa is more thoughtful."

Indeed, compared to the guards raised by his own family, the soldiers in Qin Baihu's hands and his relationship with the Fucheng garrison camp are the real power that can protect them.

Mr. Xu was very pleased to see that his grandson understood. It was not in vain that he personally took him by his side to teach him for several months, finally making him understand the dangers of the world and not being so naive and stupid.

However, Mr. Xu still told Xu Zhaoming: "Don't send the money over in a hurry. Wait until it is ready. After Dou Shaodong's family returns to the bank, you can then send it in. You must meet Dou Shaodong's family and explore the situation in the city. .”

Old fox!

These three words suddenly appeared in Xu Zhaoming's mind, and he felt that it was very disrespectful. He quickly lowered his head and said silently in his heart: Grandpa, I'm sorry.
