Chapter 570 Debt Collection

Xu You gently wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. Who said that generals are easy to bully? It is not feasible for a martial artist like Jia Rong to talk about great principles.

"Today we only drink and don't talk about politics." Jia Rongdao.

Xu You has no objection. He immediately agreed to it. As long as he can have a relationship with Jia Rong, it is very important to Xu You.

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the food in the general's mansion is naturally not as good as Fenglailou, and Xu You's food is also slow. He keeps talking with Jia Rong about some snow and moon things. Xu You's ability to pat the horse is not weak, otherwise he will not be under Yuan Shao's hands to beat Tian Fengju and others.

"General, elegant and elegant to meet." A bodyguard came in to hold the boxing.

Jia Rong frowned slightly. Every time this Fengya comes, he goes with several ladies in the house. How can he see himself today? Is it because Feng filial piety and eating and drinking in Fenglailou without paying the bill? Now there is Xu You beside him. Fengya asks for the debt, and there is no face.

Xu You said, "General, you'd better avoid it." Naturally, he doesn't know who Fengya is.

Jia Rong waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter. Just stay here."

Fengya is smart, and naturally she will not be so ignorant. In addition, she has a close relationship with several wives, and her status in the city has improved a lot. Jia Rong doesn't mind this either. He has already ordered people to secretly investigate Fengya clearly.

Seeing Jia Rong in the upper position and Xu You below, the elegant expression was slightly stagnant, and it immediately returned to normal. Yingying said, "Little woman, see the general."

After Xu You saw the person coming, his heart had already jumped, thinking that Fengya could take care of Jia Rong's face without mentioning the restaurant.

"Please get up, I don't know why Miss Feng came here?" Jia Rong said lightly.

"The little woman came to collect debts." Fengya turned his eyes to Xu You.

Xu You's body was shocked, and his face was slightly white. Jia Rong, who was the first, also changed slightly. Of course, the two did not look at each other and did not see a middle clue.

"Oh, what debt?" Jia Rong's face had been practiced for a long time. Knowing that Fengya came, he still deliberately pretended to be confused.

"Guo Junshi owed another 100,000 yuan in the store." Fengya didn't seem to see Jia Rong's slightly ugly face.

Jia Rong laughed and said, "It's Guo Junshi again. I have told him not to write down the general's account for eating and drinking in the future. Unexpectedly..."

"Miss Feng, you can go to the workshop to get 100,000 yuan worth of wine later. Next time Guo Junshi goes to eat and drink, don't record it on the general's account." Jia Rong is very good at dealing with such things. Anyway, there is no money. There is a lot of wine. Don't worry, these merchants don't want it, and the price is quite low.

Feng Ya readily agreed.

Seeing that he still did not leave, Jia Rong's tone contained a faint anger, "What else is wrong with Miss Feng?" I have a distinguished guest to receive."

"This must be a distinguished guest of the General's Mansion, the messenger of Jizhou, right?" Feng Ya pointed to Xu Youdao.

Jia Rong nodded. He didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the elegant gourd. "That's right. Lord Xu is an important counselor under General Yuan in Jizhou."

Xu You was not happy at all because of Jia Rong's grand introduction. Now he owes more money than Jia Rong, a full of 200,000 yuan. It is impossible to make it all in a short time. It seems that it is inevitable to be ashamed in the general's mansion today.

"Lord Xu recognizes the little girl, right? Yesterday, I was in Fenglai Building..."

After Feng Ya finished speaking, Xu You took over and said, "Let's talk about the matter of Fenglai Building later, and now I still have important things to discuss with the general."

Jia Rong was curious and stopped, "I'm not in a hurry for a while. What's the matter with Miss Feng?"

"Yesterday, Lord Xu drank in Fenglai Building. Due to the lack of money, he wrote an IOU." In order to take care of Xu You's face, Fengya said it quite decently.

Xu You said, "Money is not a matter of concern. You will definitely return it when you go back, and you will definitely return it."

"How much do you owe?" Jia Rong ignored Xu You's feelings and asked.

"Twenty thousand."

Jia Rong was slightly shocked. Xu You came to Chang'an for only a day. Why did he eat 200,000 yuan? Could it be that he didn't look at the price of the food before eating? There was another reason.

"Lord Xu, is that so?" Jia Rong asked, anyway, there was a disagreement between him and Yuan Shao, so he didn't care about Xu You's feelings.

"To tell you the truth, it's true." Seeing that the matter could not be avoided, Xu You arched his hand and said.

Jia Rong and Feng Ya looked at each other and immediately took it to mind. Xu You's status in Jizhou was not low. The wine money owed to the wind may be a breakthrough. What important news did he get from Xu You?

"Well, this, the general is responsible for all matters in Chang'an. Naturally, the interests of the merchants in the city are not a problem. Fenglailou is also a small business. Lord Xu, you see that Fengya is also a woman. It's not easy to return it as soon as possible." Jia Rongyi said righteously.

Xu You repeatedly said yes, but he was thinking about getting out of it. 200,000 yuan is not a small amount, or it is quite heartbreaking to take out with Xu You's money.

"That's good. When the money owed by the wind is paid off, we will discuss the peace between the two sides." Jia Rongdao.

After that, Xu You was almost imprisoned in the general's house. Whether it was eating or going to the street, there were always soldiers staring at him secretly. Xu You was also honest. He returned on time to eat every day. He had not missed it for a few days. Xu You also had no bitterness. There was no money in his pocket, but he couldn't buy something. Qi, this is not Jizhou. They will give Lord Xu a face and give it away for free. Under the rule of the Xiliang Army, it is not to mention Xu You, but the general Jia Rong is not debtsed by Fengya.

After Xu You's matter was ordered to be dealt with by Jia Xu, Jia Rong began to prepare banking matters. This matter is related to the economic problems of the whole Xiliang Army. It is very important to be fully prepared.

Paper money is definitely an epoch-making move in the Han Dynasty. It is absolutely difficult for the people to accept it in a short period of time. The general's mansion has absolute authority in Chang'an, and it is easy for businessmen to use paper money to trade in the city. As long as they are reported not to accept banknotes, soldiers of the Xiliang Army will immediately go to arrest them. Time one Long, but there are no mistakes.

Jia Rong summoned his core civil servants to discuss the issuance of paper money. Previously, he only studied the bank at the general's mansion and did not specifically point out the issuance of paper money.

After listening to the story, several people in the room have a general concept of banknotes, that is, to exchange the money used by merchants in transactions with paper money. It is convenient, but will merchants foolishly exchange the money in their hands into a pile of paper? It is difficult to say this problem, especially for the people, who are more practical and would rather put money at home than exchange it into paper money.

Zhang Zhao said, "General, paper money is a matter of great importance. If someone takes the opportunity to counterfeit it, how much money will the general's mansion lose?"

Jia Rong smiled and said, "We can make means on paper money, so that those people can't imitate it, and change paper money regularly. In this way, it can be avoided a lot. It can be implemented in Chang'an City for the time being. Let's see how it works."

Jia Rong put forward very constructive opinions, which is not a matter of overnight. Throughout the development of the Western Liang Army, many of them are not available to other princes. Reuse the craftsman, peacefully solve the Qiang people, and dominate the grassland, which one is not talked about.

"This matter will be completed by Lord Zhang Zhao and the military division. If there is anything you don't understand, you can ask the general at any time." Jia Rong ordered.

"Master, even if paper money is convenient to use, it is difficult for a merchant to exchange the money in his hand. After all, money is applicable to the whole Han, and paper money can only be used in Chang'an City." Although Guo Jia is a military sjun, he still sees blood for a while.

Chen Zhen also nodded in favor of Guo Jia's remarks.

The rest of the people also turned their attention to Jia Rong, which is obviously also what they are concerned about.

Jia Rong smiled and said, "It's so simple. What merchants pursue is nothing more than profit. If there is enough profit, there is no need to worry about not taking out the money in their hands."

"The money deposited in the bank can give them a certain profit. For example, a thousand yuan can be deposited in the bank. If it is not withdrawn in a year, it will be given more than ten yuan."

"Lord, I'm afraid there is something wrong with this. The merchants and people deposit money in the bank. The bank itself has no profit. In the long run, it will lose a lot." Zhang Lidao.

"No, the money in the bank belongs to us, and the general's mansion can withdraw cash from it to buy grain and fodder materials for other purposes. Ten yuan may not be a big deal, but 100,000 yuan, tens of millions of yuan, and with a bank, even if we have a vault, we can't use it."

The issuance of banknotes caused an uproar in the city. Hearing the propaganda of the people sent by the general's office, not only the people, but also the merchants did not dare to believe it too much. If it hadn't been for the soldiers who were indeed wearing the clothes of the Xiliang Army, they would have arrested him to see the officials.

The general's mansion has an absolute prestige in the city. Even if some people doubt it, it still can't be handled by someone. For rich businessmen, tens of thousands of thousands of money is nothing, and after exchanging paper money, they may be watched by Jia Rong. The merchants have earned an unknown amount of money in Chang'an City to the general's mansion. There is also an instinctive trust.

The denomination of the banknote is temporarily set at 100, and the smallest denomination is a dime, that is, the money set before. Now the bank has just emerged, and many systems are not perfect. The general's office also issued it with a trial attitude. For the first time, only 10 million yuan of banknotes were made. The anti-counterfeiting was urged by the general's office. A lot of craftsmanship has been taken.

On the 100 note, there is a pattern printed. On the front is a Western Liang army cavalry with a big horse machete. It is majestic and vivid, and on the back is a pattern of knives and guns intersecting.
