The Fourth Lingshi Financial Crisis

Chapter 27 Zhu Family Conspiracy

Unlike the Qingning Chamber of Commerce who just arrived, the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce has been rooted in Haiya City for hundreds of years.

Similar to Chen Ping's family, the Zhu family in Haiyacheng also rose during the third Lingshi financial crisis 500 years ago. This financial turmoil that changed the political landscape of Kyushu can be called the largest wealth wash in the last 7000 years in the cultivation world. Card.

Before the third Lingshi Financial Crisis, the mainstream currency system in the comprehension world was the Kyushu Currency Union System created by the famous comprehension economist Bo Nanke, which is a currency system between credit currency and physical currency. , using an institutional arrangement similar to the Bretton Woods system.Its main currency [Spiritual Stone Voucher] is semi-linked to Spirit Stone. In theory, Spirit Stone Voucher can be exchanged for Spirit Stone, but the exchange process is relatively indirect, and the monetary authority can artificially increase the difficulty of currency exchange.By decoupling the spirit stone coupons from the spirit stone, to a certain extent, the monetary authorities can artificially adjust the amount of money put in, which partially overcomes the problem that the circulation of spirit stone currency cannot match the economic development of Kyushu and causes the currency value to fluctuate greatly.

However, just like the Bretton Woods system of the earth, the Kyushu Currency Union system eventually suffered a crisis due to the run on the currency. Finally, President Lu Yang was born and founded the Lingshi Reserve Bank, which completely swept the Kyushu Currency Union into the garbage heap of history.

But currency reform is not a dinner party, and the confrontation between old and new currencies was initially very intense.

Although during the third Lingshi financial crisis, the credit of Lingshi coupons was already crumbling, but this kind of run crisis has not happened before. Before, the Kyushu Monetary Union made a decisive move in accordance with the financial philosophy of Bo Nanke's predecessors, and in the bud of the crisis At this stage, they used the spirit stone inventory of the seven major factions to blow up the short sellers, successfully curbing the trend of depreciation of spirit stone coupons.

Therefore, many people at that time firmly believed that the Kyushu Currency Union could once again hit the shorts.

However, this is not the case. At that time, the Kyushu Monetary Union was exhausted. The top executives of the Kyushu Monetary Union just supported the scene according to Bo Nanke's theory that "confidence is more important than Lingshi", pretending to be still full of confidence.

After most people realized that the situation was over, the credit of the spirit stone coupons collapsed almost overnight, and the wealth accumulated by countless cultivating families for thousands of years was instantly reduced to waste paper.

There was even an old cultivator who came out of retreat for decades, only to find that his life savings was gone, and he died on the spot.

In the end, it was President Lu Yang who used the new currency, Lingshi Coins, to make a partial analysis of the Lingshi coupons, which avoided the fate of most cultivating families in the Kyushu cultivating world due to the financial crisis of Lingshi.

This is also why President Lu Yang has a lofty prestige comparable to a savior in the Kyushu cultivation world!
Although the third Lingshi financial crisis has greatly damaged the vitality of countless old-fashioned cultivation families, there are also many new-generation monks who bet on the Lingshi Reserve Bank in the early days, taking advantage of the Lingshi financial crisis to make a fortune.

Zhu Biao, the ancestor of the Zhu family in Haiya City, and Chen Kui, the ancestor of the Chen family in Haiya City, are all representatives.

Although they are only cultivators in the Qi refining period, they have obtained wealth that is incomparably rich. Even the Haiya Chamber of Commerce, which is deeply mired in the Lingshi financial crisis, relies on borrowing liquidity from these two bigwigs to avoid bankruptcy. fate.

It is precisely because they were once the creditors of the Haiya Department that both the Zhu family and the Chen family obtained the franchise rights in Haiya City.

But as the saying goes, the emperor and the courtier, with the passing of the two ancestors in the Qi refining period, and the high-level Haiya clan who had been favored by them gradually withered away. The situation became more embarrassing.

The Chen Family Chamber of Commerce is relatively lucky. Almost every generation will have one or two cultivators who can barely hold on to the facade.

The Zhu Family Chamber of Commerce was relatively unlucky. No one from Zhu Ziming’s father and grandfather could measure the aptitude for cultivation and became a mortal chamber of commerce without the protection of cultivators. This kind of independent chamber of commerce was established in Haiya City, surrounded by wolves. There is no difference with the sheep.

Therefore, Zhu Jianwen, the owner of the Zhu family, had no choice but to put his chamber of commerce under the name of Lu Anping, the special trade representative of the Wuliangjian faction, and act as the white glove of Xianshi Lu who was crossing the river.

Now the momentum of the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce is not as strong as before. Only the headquarters of the Zhujia Chamber of Commerce, which is located in the core area of ​​Haiya City and has a magnificent architectural pattern, still tries its best to show the glory of the Zhujia in the past.

Just as Yang Lu left for the City Lord's Mansion, Zhu Ziming was in the reception room of his own chamber of commerce, meeting guests from the Haiya Chamber of Commerce.

"Strictly managing things, there shouldn't be anything wrong with the things I asked you to do before!" Zhu Ziming's tone was very respectful in the face of the slightly fat, well-dressed middle-aged man in front of him.

To be able to treat a rich second-generation like Zhu Ziming so respectfully, this Yan Guanshi is naturally not an ordinary guest. His name is Yan Kuan, and his position is the financial director of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce headquarters.

Compared with Zhu Ziming's respect, Yan Guanshi looked very relaxed, and the relationship between Party A and Party B was clear at a glance: "Isn't it just creating the illusion that the capital chain of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce is tense, and blocking the payment for the Qingning Chamber of Commerce? You know, the account book It's an art, the boundaries between true and false are very blurred, and I can achieve what you want without leaving any handle."

With Yan Kuan's assurance, Zhu Ziming's face also looked much better: "With your words here, the Qingning Chamber of Commerce will surely die!"

"I wish the Chamber of Commerce and I are old friends, and we should help each other!" Yan Guan said politely in advance, and then changed the topic and said as if he meant something: "But I always feel a little uneasy in my heart. Be steady. You should know that for those of us who are accountants, even if we commit a crime, there is no problem, but we must not make mistakes..."

Zhu Ziming is also a smart person. He didn't understand what Yan Kuan meant, so he immediately patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry about managing things, this matter is personally assigned by Xianshi Lu, and it is absolutely correct politically!"

However, Yan Kuan's expression was still grim, and he didn't seem to buy it easily: "Xianshi Lu is a prominent figure in Haiya City, so I can trust him naturally. But the beautiful president of Qingning Chamber of Commerce is not an ordinary person, but she can pierce through. God of gods!"

Zhu Ziming seemed to have long known that the other party had asked this question, and said calmly: "So what? Although Li Qingning has a prominent background, the forces behind her do not support her rash actions. She is smart enough to do business with Tianshu City. Yu blatantly interfered in the reform of the social security system in Zhongzhou, which violated the bottom line of all forces! Needless to say, Chen Ming, the owner of Tianshu City, and our City Lord Jiang, who have been fighting for hundreds of years, do you think Jiang City Lord's behavior towards her? , don't you have any comments?"

Yan Guanshi's face softened a little when he heard the words, nodded and said: "These small actions we are doing will definitely not be able to hide the big figures like President Su and City Lord Jiang. Since they have not expressed their opposition, they must have acquiesced. It's just that it is me after all. If you do it, if someone gets stabbed, City Lord Jiang and President Su will be fine, but I will definitely be pulled out to take the blame!"

As a veteran of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce, Yan Guanshi has a very clear understanding of his situation.

However, after hearing his concern, Zhu Ziming suddenly burst out laughing so hard that Yan Kuan couldn't figure it out.

After the laughter subsided, Zhu Ziming spoke again: "Strictly manage affairs, didn't you just say that mortals like us who work for cultivators can commit crimes, but can't we make mistakes? Master Lu Xian ordered me to treat Qing Qing. Ning Chamber of Commerce took action, and President Su acquiesced to you to make small moves just to make us take the blame. If we don't even dare to take the blame, what's the use of the high-level cultivators? Do you want them to do these dirty things by themselves? Do you live? We mortals who do things for cultivators are dedicated to doing dirty work. If you don’t do these things because they are dirty, then you have made a real big mistake!”
