Chapter 307 How much change and copper coins can your store scrape together now?
Qian Duoduo respectfully handed the box of banknotes to Chu Mengting and said, "Princess Mengting, Miss Xi, the silver is ready, please take a look." As she spoke, her voice trembled slightly, as if revealing her inner nervousness and uneasiness.
Chu Zixi and Chu Mengting looked at each other and exchanged meaningful looks.
Chu Zixi raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and a faint smile appeared on her face. She said softly, "The Qian family is indeed the richest family in the imperial city. It is not easy to raise such a huge sum of money in such a short time. Yu San, bring the official documents here immediately for Miss Qian to sign. There are three copies of this contract. The government keeps one copy, and you and I each have one copy. This way you can rest assured."
Hearing this, Qian Duoduo couldn't help but rub her hands together, her eyes flashing with excitement, and she nodded quickly and said, "Hey, Miss Xi is right! Let's sign the contract quickly and go back to start work early." She couldn't wait to complete the deal as soon as possible, as if a huge stone in her heart had finally fallen to the ground.
Yu San slowly pulled out two contracts from his sleeves. On them, the bright red official seal of the government office was clearly visible, as if it was a double guarantee of power and credibility.
At this moment, Qian Duoduo only had the flashing light of the official seal in his eyes. He was thinking about the huge profits that were about to come, and he hurriedly signed his name without even reading the terms of the contract carefully.
Chu Zixi stood aside, with a meaningful smile on her lips, "Okay, now that the dust has settled, Miss Qian, the next matters will be handed over to us. Recruiting craftsmen and starting construction are all urgent. You can go back home and wait for good news."
When Qian Duoduo heard this, a hint of hesitation flashed across her eyes, and then she was overwhelmed by the desire for wealth. "Can I go with you?" she asked tentatively, with curiosity and expectation flashing in her eyes.
Chu Mengting's voice sounded at the right time, with a bit of coldness and no doubt: "It will be inconvenient for Miss Qian to take you with her. It is better for you to stay at home and wait for good news. In a month, when the dividends are distributed, you will be invited to come."
When it comes to dividends, Qian Duoduo's face suddenly breaks into a bright smile, as if he has already foreseen the gold, silver and treasures that will fill the room.
Seeing this, Chu Zixi gave Yu San a look calmly. Yu San understood and quickly hugged the box full of silver tightly in his arms.
After Chu Zixi and Chu Mengting disappeared outside the teahouse, Xiaohuan dared to ask softly: "Miss, are you just leaving things to them so easily? Will you..."
Qian Duoduo didn't care. She gently unfolded the contract and read it carefully word by word, with a shrewd gleam in her eyes.
"What else? With this contract, I will be the one who reaps the benefits in a month. Hahahaha... then we'll see how that self-righteous mother and son can still act so arrogant in front of me!" Her laughter contained both pride and infinite longing for the future.
On the other side, Chu Zixi and Chu Mengting boarded the carriage. Chu Mengting couldn't help laughing and said, "Sister Xi, that Qian Duoduo is really stupid and has a lot of money. She is so easy to deceive. I can't tell at all that she is arrogant and vicious on weekdays."
Chu Zixi smiled slightly, with a deep look in her eyes: "Yu San, go to the money house and exchange the silver notes for copper coins and small change, and then go to West Street."
As Yu San responded by driving the horse, the carriage slowly drove towards the money house. The rumbling sound of the wheels seemed to indicate that a new story was about to begin.
The carriage slowly stopped in front of the money house. Yu San got off the carriage holding a heavy wooden box and walked into the money house step by step.
The shopkeeper, a middle-aged man, was fiddling with an abacus with his head down, seemingly completely immersed in the world of numbers.
When he heard footsteps, he lazily raised his head and casually glanced at the little girl who had just entered the bank.
"Boss, thank you for your help." Yu San gently opened the box, revealing the neatly stacked silver bills inside, piled up like a small mountain.
"I want to exchange all of these one million taels of silver notes into copper coins and small change." Yu San's tone remained calm.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he looked up suddenly, his eyes widened, his mouth slightly open, and an expression of astonishment appeared on his face.
With trembling hands, he tried to count the number of silver bills. His eyes were fixed on Yu San, with a gleam of disbelief in his eyes.
"This... girl, are you sure this is... one million taels of silver?" The shopkeeper's voice was trembling, and it was obvious that he had not yet recovered from the shock.
Yu San smiled faintly, nodded, and said softly, "That's right." Her voice was not loud, but it exploded in the shopkeeper's ears like thunder.
The shopkeeper's throat rolled and he swallowed, obviously shocked by this sudden huge transaction.
"Miss, your amount is really huge. We can still collect the silver ingots, but it is difficult for our shop to collect copper coins and small change at the moment. I'm afraid we have to ask other banks for help to meet your needs."
"How long will it take?" Yu San's voice remained calm, as if all this was within her expectations.
The shopkeeper thought for a moment and replied, "If we want to mobilize troops from the counties closest to the imperial city, even if we ride at full speed, it will take six hours to go back and forth."
Upon hearing this, Yu San frowned slightly, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.
She muttered to herself that if things continued at this pace, by the time all the silver was collected, it would be dark already, and by then her master's originally planned trip to West Street would probably be affected.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but frowning and shaking her head secretly.
However, now that things have come to this, she can only try her best to find a solution to the problem.
"Boss, how much change and copper coins can your store scrape together now?" she asked in a firm tone.
The shopkeeper looked embarrassed after hearing this. He hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Our shop can immediately exchange 200,000 taels of copper coins and silver. In addition, with the other three branches in the imperial city, we may be able to collect another 300,000 taels. So the total is about 500,000 taels. But if we want to exchange it for silver ingots, it may take some time. The several shops together can probably collect 1 million taels."
Yu San thought for a moment and nodded, "Then let's exchange these 500,000 taels of copper coins and silver first, and the remaining 500,000 taels for silver ingots."
The shopkeeper quickly agreed and said that he would arrange for the waiter to prepare it immediately.
At the same time, he also promised: "Girl, please wait a moment. I will immediately send someone to other branches to mobilize silver and ensure that everything will be ready within an hour."
Yu San nodded, counted out ten thousand taels from the box as a deposit, then turned around and left the bank with the box and returned to the carriage.
She briefly informed Chu Zixi and Chu Mengting in the car of the situation. The two beauties smiled at each other and decided to get out of the car and wait for good news in the elegantly decorated restaurant opposite.
Inside the restaurant, the aroma of tea wafted in the air and the sound of stringed instruments filled the air. Chu Zixi and Chu Mengting sat by the window, sipping tea and talking in low voices.
