As soon as Fang Shaokang saw Qian Ruoyu was interested, he immediately started talking.
"Of course, otherwise, why would I hate this Capital City Chamber of Commerce so much!"
"There is no love without reason, and there is no hatred without reason! This Beijing Chamber of Commerce is really too much. Just yesterday, they even sent people to our Ruyi Bank to cause trouble and demanded that we pay a large fee!"
"Yesterday they asked our Ruyi Bank to pay four thousand taels of silver as membership fee. We had ignored them long before that, but they still send people to cause trouble almost every month. They even beat up two of our customers yesterday."
After hearing this, Qian Ruoyu nodded.
Qian Ruoyu did not expect that the Beijing Chamber of Commerce would be so arrogant and disrespectful. They would even come to cause trouble at a bank as large as Ruyi Bank. No wonder Ma Taiyuan had to pay such a large sum of money.
"Fortunately, we paid to take care of the two guests, otherwise the matter would not have been resolved. It also cost us nearly several hundred taels of silver."
"Tell me, is this Beijing Chamber of Commerce a good thing? In addition, the silver bill and silver convoys escorted by our Ruyi Bank to various places were also attacked. If you say this has nothing to do with the Beijing Chamber of Commerce, I would never believe it!"
Hearing this, Qian Ruoyu nodded again and asked at the same time.
"This Beijing Chamber of Commerce is so arrogant, is there no one who can control them?"
Fang Shaokang smiled and shook his head, a wry smile on his face.
"There's no way, absolutely no way!"
"It is said that this Beijing Chamber of Commerce has connections in the court and is in collusion with the Ministry of Revenue. Whenever we want to retaliate against them, the Ministry of Revenue will find us, take away several of our associates, and detain them for three to five days. It's simply a matter of life and death for us!"
Qian Ruoyu suddenly realized.
It seems that the Beijing Chamber of Commerce is not as powerful as it looks on the surface, and it is even colluding with the Ministry of Revenue behind the scenes.
The power behind it is so powerful, no wonder the Beijing Chamber of Commerce is not afraid at all and even keeps sucking blood from it.
Qian Ruoyu never imagined that the Capital Chamber of Commerce was indeed not a small fry. No wonder it could have such a huge scale on the Cross Street. Even the Ruyi Money House was not located on the four sides of the Cross Street, but on one of the streets.
While the two were chatting, Jin Lianhua had already found an independent yard in the backyard.
This yard is located in the middle of the backyard. Jin Lianhua fell in love with it at first sight. It is obviously not an ordinary place.
Because in this independent courtyard, there are rockery, a stream, and a pavilion, it looks like the owner's courtyard no matter how you look at it.
What's more, there were two people guarding the gate of the yard, and some broken glass was hung on the four walls of the yard to prevent anyone from breaking in or sneaking in without permission.
It was also because of this that Jin Lianhua sneaked in and bypassed the two people guarding the door.
The broken pieces of glass on the wall had no effect on Golden Lotus. Golden Lotus simply dug into the hole in the wall with two fingers and climbed over it.
After going around the wall, Jin Lianhua saw several small houses in the courtyard. One of the main houses obviously had someone in it, so Jin Lianhua approached the wall.
For Golden Lotus, sneaking in like this is nothing to mention. Golden Lotus can enter the Imperial Palace at will. How can Hedi enter such a place?
This level of defense is a joke to Jin Lianhua.
After arriving near the ancestral house, Jin Lianhua saw the people inside through the window and was immediately shocked.
Because the person in the room was exactly the same person who was seen in the courtyard at the beginning, almost exactly the same.
Jin Lianhua was immediately certain that it was indeed Mr. Fang in Ruyi Money House. He claimed to be sick just now and probably didn't want to see outsiders. In this case, it was very likely that he was the manager that Fang Dingbang mentioned.
After confirming these, Jin Lianhua did not leave immediately. Instead, she stayed there for a while and still had to observe the place in detail.
It was at this moment that Fang Dingguo stood up, walked to the door and shouted outside.
One of the guards at the door quickly ran in and said to him.
"Boss, what's the matter?"
"Give orders to have everyone take the medicine I gave to everyone earlier. The remaining people who don't have enough to eat will temporarily work in our bank. After a while, they will return to the bank to work."
"People who have taken the medicine can go to the counter to do some work, and then buy more rice and grain at home."
The guard who heard this nodded immediately and ran out.
After getting the news, Jin Lianhua climbed over the wall again and returned to Qian Ruoyu.
At this time, Fang Shaokang was talking to Qian Ruoyu incessantly about this.
"Well, young lady, you are right! This Beijing Chamber of Commerce is really arrogant and lawless. It is time to teach them a lesson. But don't worry, we will teach them a lesson soon and let the people of Beijing Chamber of Commerce know what Ruyi Bank is!"
Qian Ruoyu also smiled slightly.
At this moment, the six waiters had counted all the silver that Qian Ruoyu and Jin Lianhua brought, and took out two silver bars and placed them in front of Qian Ruoyu.
"Miss, this is the extra silver you have. A total of six taels of silver are extra."
Qian Ruoyu was slightly surprised. She never expected that Ruyi Money House would provide such considerate service. Even though there was an extra six taels of silver, they had already given it to her.
After all, the silver that Qian Ruoyu took out was close to official silver, all of which were of full weight, and some were even much heavier.
Therefore, there is actually no problem with the extra six taels of silver among the several thousand taels.
After Qian Ruoyu accepted it, he smiled and said to Fang Shaokang in front of him.
"I didn't expect your bank to behave like this. I am very satisfied with your cooperation so far. If there is nothing else, we will leave first."
Qian Ruoyu walked out of Ruyi Money House with the golden lotus, but at this moment Fang Shaokang's expression changed slightly.
"Follow them and see which family's eldest daughter this is. I am a little interested in that girl, but I must investigate her background thoroughly!"
A waiter next to him nodded quickly after hearing this.
Just after Qian Ruoyu and Jin Lianhua left, Qian Ruoyu asked.
"How's the situation? Have you found the big shopkeeper?"
Jin Lianhua nodded slightly, but reminded Qian Ruoyu.
"My queen, now is probably not a good time to talk about this matter. Someone is following us."
Hearing this, Qian Ruoyu just nodded slightly, and then left everything to Jin Lianhua.
