Corrupt official in the Red Chamber

Chapter 17 Indecision
Jia Rui went back to his room and took out the banknotes impatiently.

Afterwards, Xin Nian began to touch his golden finger, trying to put away the banknotes, but the banknotes on the table did not move for a long time.

Jia Rui touched his head, turned his head, and then slapped his thigh. He finally figured out the reason.

Goldfinger doesn't recognize bank notes.

In the eyes of gold-fingered people, silver notes are just pieces of paper, and only large chunks of cash count in front of them.

But this 1000 taels of silver is not a small amount.

In ancient times, one catty was equal to 16 taels, and 1000 taels of silver was equivalent to 62 catties.

Jia Rui thought for a while, it's better to exchange these banknotes for silver as soon as possible, so that he can buy the Dementor Talisman and lay the foundation for his future prosperity.

After thinking about it, Jia Rui walked out of the house with the cash in his pocket, and walked around the street.

To say that this capital city is indeed prosperous, on this central Suzaku Avenue, people come and go, rubbing shoulders and elbows, sweating profusely.

There were not only Han people, but also many people in ethnic minority costumes. Jia Rui even saw a few foreigners with blue eyes and golden hair.

However, the people on the street did not make a fuss about these foreigners in strange clothes. It seemed that everyone was used to it.

Jia Rui walked around the street for a long time and finally found the Shengchanglong Bank.

This Shengchanglong bank is one of the best bank accounts in the capital, and even in the world.

Almost all provincial capitals and larger cities in the world have their semicolons, which can be said to connect the world.

In addition, there are mutual support among Shanxi bank accounts, and their banknotes are mutually recognized. Therefore, as long as there are banknotes with Shanxi banknotes, they can be quickly exchanged for cash even in small counties.

Because of this, many financial transactions in the imperial court, as well as the military salaries of border officers and soldiers, were operated through Shanxi bill numbers.

Jia Rui walked into the ticket office, and a boy immediately came forward to support him.

"Master, thank you for your hard work. Do you want to remit money or pay?"

This young man also had good eyesight, seeing that Jia Rui came here alone, he probably didn't come to deposit money, so he asked this question.

Jia Rui smiled, "I want to exchange some banknotes for cash."

"My lord, come this way."

After the young man hurriedly brought Jia Rui to the elegant room, he hurriedly brought Jia Rui fragrant tea.

"Master, how much silver do you want to exchange?"

The little guy didn't go to the shopkeeper, because if Jia Rui exchanged a dozen or 20 taels of silver, he didn't need the shopkeeper's presence at all, and he could get rid of it.

Jia Rui took a sip of tea and tasted it. This Shanxi businessman really has a way of doing business, and he is considerate in leading people. Let's just say that this tea is much better than the one he drinks at home.

"Not much, 1000 taels." With that, Jia Rui took out the banknotes from his arms and put them on the table.

The young man didn't go forward to move the banknote, but quickly made a thousand, and then said: "Such a large sum of money, the small one has no right to cash it, sir, wait a moment, I will invite the shopkeeper to come."

After Jia Rui nodded, the boy turned around and left the private room.

After about a cup of tea, I heard footsteps outside, and then the door curtain opened, and then a middle-aged man walked in.

As soon as the middle-aged man entered the door, he clasped his fists and said, "I'm neglecting your distinguished guest. I'm neglecting your distinguished guest."

Jia Rui, you also quickly stood up and returned the gift, and then the two of you took your seats.

After taking his seat, the middle-aged man introduced himself.

"My surname is Wang, and I am the shopkeeper of this branch. Please call me Lao Wang."

Jia Rui did not introduce his name. After all, he was just here to collect money, so there was no need to introduce him in such detail.

So he just pushed the banknote on the table towards the other party.

"Treasurer Wang, cash these banknotes for me!"

Shopkeeper Wang picked up the banknotes, looked at them carefully one by one, then nodded, and finally shouted outside: "Accountant Li, there is a distinguished guest who wants to exchange 1000 taels of silver. Come in and collect the banknotes."

After that, an elderly accountant walked into the private room, saluted to shopkeeper Wang and Jia Rui, took the banknote and went out without saying a word.

After a while, two young men came in carrying a wooden box.

Shopkeeper Wang stood up and came to the wooden box, opened the lid of the box, and then a white light flashed out.

It turned out that there were twelve and one ingots of silver inside, and there were a total of one hundred ingots.

Shopkeeper Wang nodded in satisfaction, and then said to Jia Rui: "Guest, come and have a checkup."

"What is there to test, don't I still believe in the signboard of "Sheng Changlong"?"

Shopkeeper Wang had a smile on his face and nodded.

"In this case, I will send two guys to help you get home."

"That's unnecessary, just this little weight doesn't bother me."

After Jia Rui finished speaking, he stepped forward and gently pushed the box, causing the box to tilt slightly, then put his other hand under the box, and then pushed hard, the box containing more than 60 catties of silver was unexpectedly dragged by him over the shoulder.

Shopkeeper Wang who was standing next to him was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that the person in front of him looked thin and looked like a scholar, but he had such strength.

After finishing, Jia Rui nodded to Shopkeeper Wang and left.

Jia Rui returned home smoothly carrying the money, and there was no robbery on the way as mentioned in the novel.

Thinking about it, this should be the case. After all, this is the emperor's feet, and the dynasty is in its prime. On this bustling street, it is still possible for a petty thief to happen. If robbers appear on the street, the dynasty may be gone.

After Jia Rui returned home, he put the silver in his bedroom first.Then I went to have dinner with my grandparents.

At night, he sent away his maid, Brother Ying, and then pretended to fall asleep.

When the whole house was silent, he took out the silver from under the bed and activated his golden finger.

A flash of golden light was seen, and the silver in the box disappeared. On the panel in front of Jia Rui, the number became one thousand and three taels.

These three taels of silver were left over from the last upgrade of the Yang Family Spear.

Originally, Jia Rui wanted to withdraw money from the system. After all, he was not rich, and he still owed money to others at that time, so he could be more relaxed with a few taels of silver.

As a result, it is very easy for the system to receive money, but it is extremely difficult for the system to spit out money.

In the end, Jia Rui had no choice but to let the three taels of silver still hang in the system.

Now that he had one thousand and three taels of silver, Jia Rui's heart became active.

Originally, he wanted to use this money to buy the Dementor Talisman, and then control a big man so that he could live comfortably in the future.

But now looking at the system, there are so many magic tricks, which made his heart itch.

Not to mention anything else, just upgrade his Dragon Elephant Prajna Kungfu a few more levels, and his strength will rise sharply, which will also guarantee his safety in this world.

Jia Rui sat there thinking for more than an hour, but finally he was still undecided.

Then he simply gave up, let the silver hang there, and wait until it is used.

　Please collect, recommend, and monthly pass, parents of food and clothing, please help me a lot.
