The sixth prince Zhao Que, although this person is low-key.

But the twelfth prince, as a businessman.

But he also truly understood the preciousness of the various treasures in Shu.

The Shu County Chamber of Commerce in Zhao Que's hands almost controlled all trading channels between Shu and the outside world.

The most important problem facing the Zhang family now is that they may go bankrupt, because most of their money has been spent on buying grain at high prices.

Originally, I wanted to take over the Yan family in one fell swoop, but now I have lost money and people have died.

In fact, the Zhang family purchased more than just the 130,000 shi of grain from the master's family.

In order to leave the Yan family with nowhere to buy food, they bought a lot of food from surrounding cities and stockpiled it in other cities as well.

All in all, there might be 250,000 shi of grain.

In order to protect the security of various places, many martial arts masters were hired, which was another huge expense.

In normal times, one stone of grain would cost only two or three taels of silver.

But at that time in Jianghuai, the price of grain was naturally ridiculously high.

They wanted to purchase these 250,000 shi of grain.

Almost three million silver coins were paid in cash, plus the food, drink and wages for the martial artists, which amounted to almost hundreds of thousands of silver coins.

And there is the 300,000 silver coins given to the fifth prince.

Although the Zhang family is rich, most of their money is in assets, and they have almost spent all their cash.

However, there are still many invoices that have not been settled, which may lead to the Zhang family's bank being in default.

This is called a silver bank, but in fact it is just a contract.

The payment for goods from the Zhang family can be exchanged at other silver banks of the Zhang family with their silver notes.

Or buy other goods from the Zhang family, which would be a better deal for both parties.

However, if such a large amount of silver cannot be produced, it will cause panic and a large number of silver notes will be exchanged.

At that time, they will naturally have no choice but to sell assets such as shops and land at low prices.

In this era, there is no protection or auction.

At that time, these assets could probably only be sold at one-tenth of the price to pay off debts.

And by doing this, they have lost the greatest capital of a businessman, integrity!

Their Zhang family does not have a monopoly, so those people can naturally find the Yan family.

In this way, the Zhang family will never have a chance to turn things around.

Now their Zhang family is like a bull without strength but covered in flesh and blood.

Whether it was jackals, tigers, leopards, vultures, crows, snakes, rats, or even mosquitoes, lice, and ticks, they all wanted to take a bite of him after smelling the blood.

Unable to come up with the money, he could only think of Zhao Que.

This is a very good choice if he can choose to invest.

If they were given one million taels of silver, they would be able to solve their urgent problem.

Of course, if the Fifth Prince heard this news, he would see how much silver he had earned after all the hard work he put in.

You businessmen always ask for one million silver coins when you open your mouth. It really makes me angry when I compare myself with you.

"Twelfth brother, I wonder why you came to me so early?

It just so happens that I have some delicious breakfast here, which is what you usually like the most. Would you like to try some together?"

Zhao Que was eating when he heard the twelfth prince coming and asked the maid to lead him into the yard.

"Sixth brother, this is an urgent matter, please save my younger brother." The twelfth prince, with his chubby body and tears running down his face, wanted to rush forward.

Zhao Que was so frightened that he quickly stepped back: "Twelfth brother, please talk nicely if you have something to say. Don't do this. Don't crush me to death."

The twelfth prince stopped talking after hearing this.

Looking at Zhao Que's exquisite and luxurious breakfast, if it were normal, he would have started eating, but now he had no appetite at all.

"Sixth brother, to be honest, I'm here to borrow money from you." The twelfth prince had never borrowed money in his life.

When the fifth prince came to him, he mocked the fifth prince, saying that a prince had fallen to the point of having to borrow money.

But I didn't expect such an embarrassing situation to arise, so I could only speak awkwardly.

Then he smiled, and the fat on his face trembled with the smile.

"Uh..." Zhao Que was also generous. He stared at Dong Qu, touched his nose, and ordered:

"Okay, Dongqu, please take out all my silver."

At this moment, Dongqu has broken through the innate level and is moving very fast as he shuttles back and forth in the yard.

Silver and broken silver can be found under flower pots, on beams, and in corners of walls.

Soon, Dongqu piled all the silver on the stone table and said, "Your Highness, your silver is all here, a total of 273 taels."

The twelfth prince was stunned for a moment, looking at this scene with some confusion. This...

"Hey, twelfth brother, I can only support you this much, I am also sad." Zhao Que sighed: "That Miss Xue is really abominable.

Before I even got married, she started controlling my finances. Now I only have one hundred taels of pocket money a month.

You also know that my money was actually left to me by my mother.

I know nothing about business, and the money is controlled by Qiu Yan's maid.

Now they say my mother's last words were to leave the family assets to the future princess to manage, fearing that I would spend them recklessly. I'm really in a difficult situation."

Zhao Que looked at the silent Twelfth Prince, sighed, and said again: "This is too little for you. After all, you are from the Zhang family and are used to being rich. I wonder how much you want?

I'll go and discuss it with them. If possible, I can overdraw my future funds.

No matter what, we are brothers and we must support each other."

The twelfth prince did not expect that he would not be rejected when he came here, but why was it different from what he imagined?
