When the Jinghu area was in a panic and lamenting voices, the wealthy people in Jingzhou, such as Luo Yonghao, Hong Qiyun, Zhang Desheng, etc., naturally, would not remain indifferent. After receiving Qian Bingding's invitation, they first gathered in Zhijiang County, in order to advance and retreat together and share hardships.////

As the leader of the three, Hong Qiyun didn't talk nonsense and said directly: "I won't say much about the difficulties facing Jingzhou. As for whether to help Bangtai, there is no need to say much about this. What I need to discuss now is how to help and to what extent."

Luo Yonghao and Zhang Desheng nodded constantly. The three of them understood very well that no matter what the ending of this bill, Lin Chunhong had food and soldiers, and would never lose control over Jingzhou, Xiangyang and Yiling. Their foundations were all in these three places. Helping Lin Chunhong at critical moments will definitely benefit from it.

Moreover, Hong Qiyun, Zhang Desheng and Luo Yonghao have been in business for many years, how can they not see the benefits of bills? Once the bills are finally cancelled, their transaction costs will suddenly rise, which is absolutely unacceptable to them.

Luo Yonghao pondered for a moment and said, "To maintain the bill now, it is nothing more than confidence and real money. We can start from these two aspects."

Zhang Desheng also said: "It is said to be two aspects, which are essentially one. As long as we exchange all the silver present for bills, will we have confidence and cash bank?"

Hong Qiyun smiled and said, "That's the reason. I wonder how much cash you two have on hand? It should be fine if I raise 400,000 taels on hand."

Luo Yonghao and Zhang Desheng were shocked and said at the same time: "It seems that Brother Hong has hidden a lot in front of his brothers. 400,000 taels, just like playing with it!"

Hong Qiyun smiled and said, "I happened to have made a deal with the vassal treasury in Wuchang, and I have a little more cash bank..."

Luo Yonghao didn't say much and said, "It should be fine if I raise 200,000 taels in three days."

Zhang Desheng also said, "I almost do, but it should be fine to raise 150,000 taels."

Hong Qiyun laughed and said, "Okay, 950,000 taels should be able to wake up other merchants. Just do this. When we arrive in Jingzhou tomorrow, we will exchange it with great fanfare."

...

On the second day, when Hong Qiyun, Zhang Desheng and Luo Yonghao were escorting the first batch of silver to Jingzhou Wharf, they found that the road from the wharf to the money shop was crowded with people and horses were neighing.

The three of them were shocked and after a while, they found out that Huang Bo, a wool merchant, escorted 120,000 taels of cash silver, and wanted to go to the money house to exchange them all for cash silver!

Hong Qiyun patted his forehead and said to Zhang Desheng and Luo Yonghao with a wry smile: "This Huang Bo is a smart man. He actually snatched us in front of us. It seems that he will have to discuss matters in the future..."

Zhang Desheng and Luo Yonghao frowned and said, "In the future, Li Bo and Wang Bo will probably appear. Fortunately, we saw the opportunity early and it is not too late. Otherwise, the limelight will be overshadowed by Huang Bo..."

The three of them discussed for a moment and immediately ordered the money house to transport silver.

This time, the entire Jingzhou City was alarmed. As the silver was continuously transported to the ashore, the endless carriages almost formed a line between the dock and the money house, which opened the eyes of the people of Jingzhou.

In fact, in Jinghu area, merchants with a little strength all covered the bills at hand and did not participate in the run. They knew very well that their wealth was in Jinghu area. If they still took advantage of the situation at this time, how could they stay on Lin Chunhong's territory in the future? Therefore, after experiencing the first three days of runs, the entire Jinghu area gradually became quiet, and even showed signs of Dayuan returning.

After Luo Yonghao, Hong Qiyun, Zhang Desheng, Huang Bo and other merchants took the lead in exchanging real gold and silver bills worth millions of taels, the market completely stabilized.

Later, when Qian Bingding personally promised to sell 20% of the shares of the bank. When he bought the shares, the bills and real money and silver were treated equally. This time, the speed of Dayuan's return accelerated sharply.

After hearing about the behavior of the four people, the merchants with a keen sense of smell all regretted it so much that their intestines were blushed. Think about it, if they had taken the lead in supporting the bill battle with the four great merchants, they might have fallen into Lin Chunhong's eyes and were listed as key partners.

The merchants took action one after another and exchanged all the big rounds or real gold and silver at their hands into bills, for fear of falling behind and becoming the target of Bangtai's suppression.

Therefore, the Jinghu area finally ushered in a large-scale return of Dayuan. In less than five days, the Dayuan that was released a few days ago was recovered. On the tenth day, more than 7 million taels of silver were added!

The merchants in Jinghu area supported the battle to defend bills with their practical actions.

Immediately afterwards, Lin Chunhong announced in Yangzhou that he would trade in the warehouse under Bangtai in the future. All transactions of more than a thousand taels were traded on bills, showing Bangtai's strong determination to fully maintain the bills.

In addition, the newspaper also announced the credit hierarchy system of Bangtai Group in detail, and claimed that customers with a credit rating of Bangtai will be protected by Bangtai. Once the property is robbed or stolen or even blackmailed, Bangtai will pursue it to the end!

Once the credit hierarchy was announced, it caused a stir.

Jiangnan’s wealthy merchants, Hui merchants, aren’t unaware that Bangtai has such a system, but he has never heard of the prosecutors before. Now, Lin Chunhong openly announced that after the merchant was extorted, Bangtai will uphold justice. Wouldn’t it be said that even if he is extorted by local governments in the future, he can apply for the recovery of property?

Lin Chunhong is too arrogant, right? Want to fight against the local governments in Jiangnan?

However, these wealthy merchants have to admit that Lin Chunhong has this strength.

If you don’t look at anything else, just look at the guards in the grain shops all over the south of the Yangtze River. You can tell at a glance that they have experienced the test of war!

Let’s look at the centipede boats gathered at Guazhou Wharf. After counting, there were more than 30! There were more than 30, and at least more than 10,000 navy masters!

The rich merchants hesitated. These days, they have pulled back countless silver from the Yangzhou warehouse, just like they have pulled back a time bomb, and are always in tension, fearing that they will attract the covetousness of bandits or local officials.

Not like before, I can easily take away a few pieces of paper on my body and tens of thousands of taels of silver? Moreover, even if these pieces of paper are accidentally lost or robbed, there is no need to worry, because the large amount of paper is painted with portraits and left in the store, others can't get the money!

When wealthy merchants see their Class B credit, they can be protected by Bangtai Group. They are all excited. Nowadays, which of these wealthy merchants have no goods, their money has been robbed, or their money has been extorted by local officials?

"Nainai, what are the benefits for me to completely destroy the bill?"

These wealthy merchants finally began to shake...

At the same time, Zhang Zhao took action in Guangdong.

When Qian Qianyi set out from Changshu, Zhang Zhao gave the order, the naval fleet rushed out of the Suixi base like a wolf and a tiger, rushed towards Luzon Island with all his might, attacking Dagupan on Luzon Island.

Dagupan is located in Lingyan Bay in the northern part of Luzon Island. Bontai has long discovered that there are large-scale copper ores, and there are also a large number of gold and silver ores.

Jingzhou Group has long planned to attack Manila at the end of this year. This time, the capture of Dagupan is of extraordinary significance. Jingzhou Group has finally taken the first step in overseas expansion.

The aggressive fleet frightened the Philippine Governor Coquila. Koquila was facing a great enemy and ordered all the warships to try to prevent Liang Feng from forcibly removing Dagupan's stronghold.

However, after Coquera arrived at Lingayan Bay, when he saw the warships covering the sky, he counted the number of heavy artillery ships on the three decks, and tactfully ordered the fleet to hide in Manila Bay, allowing Liang Feng's naval fleet to remove Dagupan's stronghold.

To this day, Bontai finally sounded the clarion call for capturing Luzon Island, causing the maritime merchants who had already invested a lot of money to rush to tell each other, and organized a large number of people to go to Dagupan to see the business prospects.

It doesn't matter. The news that Dagupan owns large-scale copper, gold and silver mines is like a plague, spread throughout the southeast and south China coastal areas. The maritime merchants ran to Zhang Zhao like moths to fire to pursue military expenses. Therefore, the Jingzhou Group ushered in a great harvest of silver. Of course, what they received this time was mainly bills.

After receiving the news that Zheng Zhilong was going to exchange 15 million taels of silver, Lu Shiyuan, the head of the Maritime Department of Bangtai Business, immediately went to Anping. After some planning, he posted a huge notice outside the warehouse.

The notice stated that Bangtai will set up a money shop in Dagupan, start bill exchange and other businesses, and collect a 10% handling fee. It also stipulates that if the bill exchanged exceeds 10,000 taels this time, it will be listed as unpopular and will not provide exchange services.

At the same time, Bangtai will set up a mining trading company in Dagupan, and welcome you to invest in mining deposits. When investing, you are welcome to use convenient and safe bills.

Open a money shop overseas?

This has a great impact on maritime merchants, which will greatly reduce the risk of maritime trade and make all maritime merchants excited. What's more, there are gold, silver and copper mines on Luzon Island. Once they invest, they will be a business that will make a profit without losing money!

Some shrewd merchants even saw that Luzon Island is not just gold, silver and copper mines, but taking the original forests all over the island as an inexhaustible treasure house.

The two-pronged approach made Fujian-born maritime merchants completely dizzy and began to seriously consider whether to continue to follow Zheng Zhilong's footsteps to destroy Bangtai's bills.

This is not the end. In the last three days of the ten-day deadline, Zheng Mengfan, a Wenzhou-born sea merchant from Jiangnan, Yang Weiyi, Li Wenxin, Wang Demao and other 33 marine merchants led more than 20 six-masted sailboats to Anping, selling all the goods on the ship. Finally, he exchanged all the more than 7 million taels of cash in hand into bills, and then headed towards Yangzhou in a mighty manner.

This move caused a sensation in Anping. Not only was the Fujian-born sea merchants stunned, but even Zheng Zhilong was completely petrified.

"Damn it, there is no need for Lin Chun to be lucky in money. These Guangdong barbarians are just trying to get the money in a hurry... What a f*ck..."

Amid the scolding, Zheng Zhilong had to cancel his plan to exchange bills.
