Chapter 179
In this way, Sun Dan saved the twenty or so people from Ping's Bank.

Those clerks in Ping's bank were of humble status, so they naturally didn't know about Ping Qiuli's relationship with Qingzhou. Seeing Sun Dan pleading for them in front of the Dongchang eunuch and escaped with his life, everyone was grateful and knelt down. Big thanks on deck.

Sun Dan was originally a modern person. To him, human life is very precious, so naturally he would not let this group of people die inexplicably.He comforted them a few words and said: "You don't have to worry, just stay in Dongchang for a few days, and when the matter subsides, you will naturally be released." Only then did Bi Yun and others set sail and return to Beijing. .

After returning to the capital and transporting the 40 taels of treasury silver back to Neizang Mansion, Sun Dan also had a few days to spare, so he simply stayed at home and studied behind closed doors.

Although Bi Yun promised Sun Dan not to arrest Ping Qiuli, he suffered a small loss at his hands, but he was not reconciled, and still secretly sent the East Factory's special agents to investigate and arrest him privately.Since the legal channels are not going to work, it is better to deal with Ping Qiuli privately and let him be an ignorant ghost.

It's a pity that Ping Qiuli is such a smart person, since he escaped from the boat that day, he has disappeared, and he doesn't know where he fled. He let Dongchang turn the capital upside down, and he just forbeared not to show up.

It is impossible for Dongchang to make such a big move without attracting people's attention. Jin Yiwei also sensed something was wrong during this period, and sent a large number of spies, and arrested many suspicious people. For a while, the prisons of the two secret service agencies The place is overcrowded.

Even the people in Sun Dan's house felt that this was wrong, and Ting Lan reminded Sun Dan: "Master, a lot of people have been arrested on the street recently, and even beggars and beggars have disappeared. Master should avoid going to the streets to save you." Okay, don't let anything happen."

Ting Lan still had the business-like appearance, adhering to her duties as a maid, so that no one could fault her.

Naturally, Sun Dan wouldn't talk to Ting Lan about this, so he smiled and said, "I won't be going out for five days, I want to study! I'm a scholar, and my fame comes from publishing books, which is the capital of my life."

Five days is the deadline for usury released by Feng Zhen. At that time, as long as Sun Dan reveals the contract, he can justifiably take over Ping Qiuli's real estate in the capital.

On the sixth day, someone finally couldn't help but came to visit.

It was Shi Wanquan, the leader of a group of Shanxi merchants who came.

Shi Wanquan knew how powerful Sun Dan was, so he was very respectful. When he came, he brought many gifts to the female family members and servants of the Sun family, and said all the good things, which made Zhiniang feel that he was a good person. Sun Dan also thinks that this fat man has merit, at least he knows how to behave.

Sit in front of Sun Dan, Shi Wanquan asked cautiously: "Master Sun, you said you were going to sell all the assets in Pingqiuli to our Shanxi merchants. It's been a few days, why hasn't there been any movement? Even Pingqiuli has disappeared. .”

Sun Dan: "Boss Shi, the money is ready."

"It's all ready. I went back and told my colleagues about it. Everyone is very excited. As long as we get these shops, we Shanxi merchants will finally be a well-rooted person in the capital. Thirteen shops have joined together, and finally Make up that number." Shi Wanquan replied that the Shanxi merchants still had some money in their treasury in the capital, and usually put it in the cellar for fear of being stolen.Now, after getting the news, they recruited a lot of guys, and after three days of busy work, they finally chiseled out all the silver, filled it with dozens of carts, and sent the silver to the guide as soon as the land deed was in hand. Place.

"I don't know when grandpa will go to Pingqiuli's house and land, and where should we send our money?"

Sun Dan took a sip of tea: "When is the time, just wait, and I will notify you as soon as there is news. As for where to send it, you don't have to worry about it. Someone will come to transport it when the time comes."

While talking, I saw Feng Zhen running into the yard excitedly, followed by Bi Yun.Even Eunuch Bi couldn't help coming over to see and taste the fruits of victory.

Shi Wanquan naturally didn't know who Bi Yun was.But when he saw his eunuch's face and the unique demeanor of a high-ranking person, the profiteer hurriedly stood up and stood respectfully to the side to wait on him, not daring to say a word.

Feng Zhen put a large stack of land deeds on the table, and said with a smile: "Master Dan, the Ping family's bank is in complete chaos now, and those people who haven't had time to exchange them rush in and beat everyone they see, and grab everything they see. The yamen servants couldn't hold back. The villain went well this time, and very easily took over the property and manor of the birdman surnamed Ping."

Sun Dan felt satisfied, glanced at it twice, and asked again: "Feng Zhen, you didn't encounter any trouble in going to the house and manor this time, did you?"

"Trouble, it's okay if I don't make trouble for others, are you still afraid that others will come to make trouble for our family?" Bi Yun laughed sharply: "Someone from my east factory will come forward and seal his few shops and manor. Soon to succeed?"

Hearing Bi Yun's self-report that his family was from Dongchang, Shi Wanquan was even more shocked: This Sun Dan is really amazing, there are people in Jinyiwei and Dongchang. Know how to die.

Dongchang is a more terrifying place than Jinyiwei. Shi Wanquan wanted to get acquainted with Bi Yun, so he asked flatteringly: "I don't know what the name of this father-in-law is. I'm Shi Wanquan, a Shanxi businessman."

But he didn't want Bi Yun to sternly say, "You don't need to know who I am."

"Yes, yes, the villain is reckless." Shi Wanquan was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, he just wanted to slap himself: I can know the people in Dongchang, anyway, I will try my best to please Sun Dan in the future. So I got on the line with Dongchang.

Sun Dan handed the title deed to Shi Wanquan: "Boss Shi, check if the number is right."

How dare Shi Wanquan count in front of Sun Dan, and after receiving the land deed, he stuffed it into his arms without looking at it: "Naturally, the villain can trust Mr. Sun, Mr. Sun, the money is ready, and the silver cars are all gathered in Liuli In the Shanxi Guild Hall of the factory, the villain will take you and your father-in-law there to receive it."

"Liulichang, it's a very remote place!" Bi Yun nodded, "Fortunately, I was prepared and brought all my subordinates here. More than 100 people are waiting outside. Let's go there now."

Liulichang is located in the south of the outer city of Beijing. The place is very remote and there are not many people. There are river forks and small mounds everywhere, and the scenery is not bad.However, it is also convenient for the people in the East Factory to transport the silver back to Neizang Mansion.

Sun Dan and Bi Yun were not uninformed, but when they saw the 100 million taels prepared by Shanxi merchants for them, they still felt a little breathless: it was too much.

The more than 100 people in the East Factory dismantled the sacks on the car, weighed and registered the scattered silver inside, and were very busy.

Sun Dan and Bi Yun looked east and west, feeling that their eyes were dizzy.

Every time a sack of silver is weighed, the fans number the sack and record it in the account book.

This busy work lasted a whole day, and the 100 million taels of silver was only counted.

After receiving the account book, Bi Yun picked up a pen and kept marking on it: "A one, floating away; A[-], floating away; B[-], floating away; C, eleven, floating..." After a long time, he finally Throwing the ledger back, he ordered his subordinates: "Rewrite the ledger."

Sun Dan wanted to laugh while watching, but kept his mouth shut.

Bi Yun was a little embarrassed: "Jingyuan, the general allocated 40 taels of silver for us to use. Fortunately, you are clever and earned so much for the general. Usury is a messy account, you and I have worked hard After so many days, we should pay some money for running errands. Besides, so many people follow our family, so we have to send them some tea bonuses."

Sun Dan only nodded slightly.

Bi Yundao: "Do you think this is good? You and I will each get 22, and then distribute [-] to the guys in the East Factory. We will store the [-] taels in the Lu Family Bank and exchange them into money tickets, which is also convenient for use."

Sun Dan: "Bi Gong wants to earn a pension, how dare Sun Dan refuse to agree." He was also quite excited, 10 taels of silver, converted into modern currency, is worth [-] million. If we are not careful, we will become hundreds of millions. rich man.
