Looking from the outside in, the interior is clearly visible.
Even the doors were two huge glass doors with polished brass handles.
What is most puzzling is that there are glass tubes on both sides of the door.
There are red, white and blue colored strips inside, which are rotating automatically and are extremely eye-catching.
Three-color rotating lights. A hundred years later, the money shop was discovered by unofficial history enthusiasts to be constantly operating in secret. Making money was like shaving a head, so they contemptuously called him Fang the Barber, which was later used by the barber industry.
After a moment of silence, the wealthy people who were invited immediately burst into a huge discussion.
Even the people on the street were stunned. They stopped and looked at the bank in amazement.
"Oh my god, there is a house like this! This house looks really bright after being decorated like this."
"If I'm not mistaken, this is made of white crystal from Taoyuan County, right? How much does such a big piece cost?"
"I don't know how much it is, but it looks like the bank has really invested a lot..."
"What is that red, blue, and white thing spinning around? Why does it spin by itself?"
"I don't know, maybe decoration..."
Liu Zhongshun did not say anything, waiting for everyone to finish their discussion before moving on to the next step.
Fang Zhengyi also listened to the discussion around him with a smile on his face. To be honest, even he felt a visual shock.
On both sides are ancient wooden mortise and tenon structure buildings, with a modern building in the middle.
This sense of separation and contrast is extremely strong.
For example, it is hard to imagine that an Apple store opened in Beijing during the Ming Dynasty.
The rich people's discussions gradually slowed down, but their eyes were still eager.
Someone spotted the business opportunity right away.
Don’t worry about whether it is a money house or not. Just say that this house is built like this. If you can use this kind of decoration in your own shop, then what can’t be sold?
Even if he doesn't want to buy anything, he would want to come in and take a look, right?
This is a pure customer-generating machine. Even if you open a store in a corner, people will come to watch the fun!
At this time, Liu Zhongshun saw that the situation was almost settled, and he said loudly again: "Everyone, there are too many people here. If you have any questions, why don't we go inside and talk about it, so as not to block the street. Please take out your invitation letters. As for those who don't have invitation letters, please move to our Jingxing Bank tomorrow."
After he finished speaking, Liu Zhongshun waved his hand and the staff who had been prepared inside opened the glass door.
The guests rushed in excitedly with the invitations in hand.
Fang Zhengyi followed him in, and after taking only two steps, a familiar figure came into view.
The man was sneaking around in the crowd, trying to blend in.
Fang Zheng took a big step forward, reached out his hand, and grabbed Xu Wenshu on the spot.
Then he said with a smile: "Master Xu, how are you?"
"Ah?" Xu Wenshu's hair was a little messy, and he looked at Fang Zhengyi in dumbfounded.
After a moment's pause, he chuckled twice: "What a coincidence, Marquis Jianye, you are here to see the bank too."
"Why are you pretending? Everyone in the court knows that this place was opened by His Majesty and I, right?" Fang Zheng smiled. "Why, as the head of the Ministry of Revenue, you came to show your support in person? But not today. You can't come in without an invitation. We have to follow the rules in everything, especially when we are opening a bank."
Xu Wenshu shook his sleeves, took a step back and said calmly: "My Lord, you are overthinking. You are running a bank too rashly. I am afraid it will cause a lot of trouble in the future. I have tried to persuade His Majesty, but His Majesty is still considering it."
"So I came to take a look today and report to His Majesty. It is the right thing to do to stop the loss as soon as possible. I see that you have invited quite a few people. These people should have agreed to come and deposit money in advance, right? How much have they deposited in total?"
Fang Zhengyi did not hide it: "To be honest, it's not much. It adds up to about 100,000 taels."
"Among so many people, I can see two familiar faces. They are both powerful people. Their total savings are only about 100,000 taels?" Xu Wenshu frowned and said, "You are overdrawing your account for His Majesty's face."
Fang Zhengyi shrugged and said, "Isn't this only the first day? Why are you in such a hurry? Look at how beautiful my bank is. With so many people watching, am I afraid that no one will deposit money?"
Xu Wenshu shook his head: "It's all just show! Who would give up their hard work just for your little tricks? Never mind, I think you are just fooling around. I don't want to watch it anymore. I will go back to the palace and report to His Majesty."
After saying that, he turned and left.
Damn it! The old man is up to no good again!
Fang Zhengyi hurriedly grabbed him and said, "What are you doing? I helped you solve the problem in the Ministry of Revenue before, and you are trying to undermine me, right? Lord Xu, you are so dishonest!"
Xu Wenshu raised his eyebrows and said, "I am not kidding you! The money house is not related to just one or two people, it is very involved. How can you easily drag His Majesty into it? Where will the prestige of the court be if something goes wrong in the future?"
"How ridiculous! What I'm doing is a great thing. People will get interest on the money they deposit with me in the future, and it's also safe. If it's done well, your Majesty's prestige will soar! Wait a few more days before reporting to your Majesty. Why are you in such a hurry? I'll open your eyes today!" Fang Zhengyi dragged Xu Wenshu into the bank without saying a word.
Xu Wenshu didn't struggle much. Although he didn't like the idea of running a money shop, he was very curious about it.
When Xu Wenshu stepped into Jingxing Money House, he was immediately shocked by the scene before him.
The lobby is spacious, bright, neat and orderly, with tall floor-to-ceiling windows that allow natural light to fill the entire space. The floor is covered with a soft carpet, giving people a warm and comfortable feeling.
The counter in front is even more unusual, with a total of five windows, all covered with large areas of glass!
Just like in a modern bank, there is a small groove at the bottom for passing things.
