I, Zhu Houzhao, join the US imperialist chat group

Chapter 105 Zhu Houzhao was shocked: Is this the power of the weapon of economic crisis?
During Xu Yunmiao's on-site investigation.

The run crisis on Jinling Bank is getting worse and worse.

It was still early in the morning.

When there was a relatively "kind" bank that did not restrict the exchange of silver, a group of people exchanged it for half a penny and couldn't get out the money. Then, they were almost beaten to death by the excited depositors and robbed the bank...

The entire city of Jinling was instantly gripped by a panic!
The big shopkeepers, especially the wealthy people who had spare money to start their own businesses, were also infected by this panic. They closed their doors and took the banknotes and joined the bank run.

Restaurants, tea shops, rice shops, oil shops...

Near noon, as soon as these places closed, it was like a domino effect, including all the people in Jinling. Some wealthy people were also infected. Driven by this trend, they also ran away Start gathering at banks everywhere and run!

The money shops that were still open at first closed their doors after seeing this situation.

But their deception can't withstand the anger of depositors.

These savers, they really have money stored there.

If it cannot be fulfilled, its nature will change.

Stealing people's money has become like killing their parents.

They began to break into banks and grab money directly. If they couldn't grab the money, they would take whatever they saw...

Even in the end, some gangsters who fished in troubled waters got into it, and I don't know who set the fire, and the bankers became angry one after another!

This kind of movement naturally attracted the attention of Jinling Prefecture Yin and Governor Zhu Fu and others.

They immediately mobilized city defense troops and police officers to try to calm the anger of the people and put out the fire...

But, it's really useless.

The depositors who have had their money embezzled have no sense left. They just want the bank to exchange the money for them today.

The King of Heaven is here, but it’s no use.

The whole place was in an uproar, chaos was everywhere, and the good Jinling seemed to have gone crazy in an instant.

This situation directly frightened Xu Yunmiao and others.

……

"No, isn't it?"

"Guan, will closing Jinling Bank cause such a big mess?"

"I, I didn't really shut them down..."

The instigator, Zhu Houzhao, was suddenly mixed in with the crowd of private visitors in private. Under the protection of Jin Yiwei, he witnessed the whole process of the outbreak of Jinling's economic crisis.

This scene directly made Zhu Houzhao dumbfounded.

"Your Majesty, Jinling is in too much chaos now. It's better to return to the palace quickly..."

"I have never seen this situation before!"

"Crazy, it seems like everyone is crazy!"

Qian Ning and the others were also frightened, but they remembered their duty to protect Zhu Houzhao and wanted to keep Zhu Houzhao away from the place of right and wrong.

"Do not……"

“I want to see other places too!”

This was a real lesson learned from reality. Zhu Houzhao felt that he still didn’t understand the rules here. How could he miss such a vivid lesson? Under the cautious protection of Qian Ning and others, he continued to walk for several times. The entrance of the bank.

The identical scenes of runs and madness finally made Zhu Houzhao clearly see the power of the weapon of economic crisis.

It was terrifying, beyond Zhu Houzhao's expectation.

"Son!"

"Sir, please make it easy for me to find him!"

"Go home quickly!"

"The people at home are as anxious as ants on a hot pot. Everyone is looking for you!"

Liu Jin finally found him. Obviously, the current situation exceeded everyone's expectations.

Zhu Youyi, Zhu Fu, Zheng Ji and others were all at a loss, so they had no choice but to look for Zhu Houzhao.

"Qian Ning, let someone continue to investigate this situation!"

"At the same time, inform Zhu Fu and the others that they must appease the people...it is best not to hurt anyone."

Zhu Houzhao came back to his senses, arranged the tasks, and before leaving, he looked at the people with a slightly guilty look before leaving with peace of mind.

"His Majesty!"

"You're finally here!"

"You don't know! There is a big mess in Jinling now!"

He had just returned to the imperial study, and as soon as he appeared in front of everyone, he was surrounded by Zhu Youqi, Lin Han, Liu Zhong and others.

Almost a dozen of the more than 20 people who had the meeting yesterday came.

At this time, when these people saw him coming, they seemed to see the backbone, and their panicked faces softened.

"You don't need to tell me, I already know the situation in Jinling."

"Don't worry, let's go into the imperial study." Zhu Houzhao was calm. The atmosphere in the imperial city and in Jinling City were really different.

There is no sense of the war and chaos outside at all.

Everyone entered the imperial study room one by one.

"Your Majesty, in the current situation, Duke Cheng Guo has come to ask for help. It seems that the imperial army must be mobilized to quell the chaos. Otherwise, the situation will be completely out of control. The people of Jinling seem to be going crazy because they cannot exchange their silver!"

As soon as Zhu Houzhao sat down, Liu Zhong, the Minister of Rites, spoke quickly... After all, this situation was more or less caused by him.

"No! There is such a commotion outside. What if these rioters attack the palace?"

"I got news here that the governor of Jinling was almost beaten by the mob!"

"Some bank bosses have been beaten to death!"

"It's no longer common people outside, it's chaos!"

"Your Majesty's safety comes first!"

The Minister of War directly denied it: "The Imperial Army cannot be moved! If they are to move, they will also move the Governor's Mansion!"

"Yes, the Imperial Army cannot move... His Majesty's safety is the most important thing!"

Lin Han, Zheng Ji and others also quickly came to their senses. They also sought medical treatment in a hurry and realized that they were not safe at the moment.

"This is not a big deal...but the Imperial Army cannot move."

Zhu Houzhao glanced at the Minister of the Ministry of War, and then looked at Zhu Youqi. After Zhu Youqi came in, he said nothing.

"President, what do you think of this matter? I think that since it was you who caused it, you should have a way to deal with it, right?"

How did Jackson and the others handle the economic crisis?

What gold is used to bind banknotes?

So, he only needs to announce... that the banknotes in the hands of these people can be exchanged for silver, and he can calm down?
To be honest, Zhu Houzhao didn't panic when faced with this situation. Instead, he wanted to see how everyone would deal with it.

The more you deal with troubles, the more you can see the capable people and the mediocre ones.

Liu Zhong, the Minister of Rites, could not control his anger, and others such as Lin Han, Zheng Ji, etc. were also a little angry.

On the contrary, he saw the shadow of Jackson in Zhu Youqi, the first president of the Ming Dynasty, whom he had high hopes for.

"Your Majesty, I believe that the top priority... Chen Shangshu is right, it is to ensure your Majesty's safety first."

When Zhu Youtiao opened his mouth, everyone fell silent.

"Don't worry about my safety. I can go to Xiaoling later. There are also Xiaoling guards there, so... if necessary, the imperial army can be used."

Counting the time, the chat group will be opened again tomorrow. When this happened today, Zhu Houzhao felt that he had something to say to the group members.

Therefore, he immediately dispelled everyone's doubts about his safety.

Uh……

You ran to Xiaoling, where should we go?

Zhu Houzhao's answer made everyone stunned but also found it reasonable.

Zhu Youyi was also choked, and after a while he said: "That's it, that's okay. That's the second step... how to deal with the current chaos in Jinling. As far as I know, they thought Jinling was because of the suspension of Jinling Bank. The bankers could no longer give them any money, so the riots broke out."

"Yes, President, Your Majesty, we have found out clearly that this small move of canceling the bank actually made them panic. This is simply unheard of."

Zheng Ji also came to his senses and expressed his opinion: "So, how about... we don't cancel the bank?"

"Let the bank exchange money for them. The money from the bank is originally theirs."

"no!"

"How is this possible! What kind of bad idea did Mr. Zheng come up with? There are so many people in Jinling now wanting to exchange money. It may be millions or millions of taels. Our money... No, how can those people's banks have so many money? Exchange the silver!"

As soon as this bad idea came out, Zhu Houzhao and Zhu Youqi didn't speak, but some people subconsciously refuted it.

Are you kidding? How much money is needed in this current situation, and how many people want to fish in troubled waters.

Not to mention the common people, the capitalists behind them are also afraid.

"If we can't cancel, what should we do? Let them continue to make trouble?"

It was a bit interesting, even if he canceled it, Zhu Houzhao felt as if he had seen more things.

"Your Majesty, I believe that the culprit must be caught! The current situation is caused by some people with ulterior motives. As long as they are caught and punished on the spot, other people can be frightened. Others are always a group of rabble and cannot make a difference. .”

Someone made a murderous comment.

Put aside the chaos caused by the economic crisis.

These officials are experienced when facing these chaos or refugees.

"No, this situation is caused by us after all! During the anniversary of Taizu's death, this matter is taboo. If we use this to kill some wrongdoers, we cannot explain to Taizu."

Zhu Youqi directly denied it, joking. Although this method is good, the bad reputation must be borne by the royal family.

"Then what kind of advice does the prince have? This won't work. It won't work anywhere. It's impossible to let these rioters overthrow the entire Jinling City. It will also disturb Taizu..."

He looked at Zhu Youqi with a prickly look, as if he was acting in his own interests.
