In just a few days, dozens of caravans came to the Datang Bank in Shunzhou City to withdraw money from the Datang Bank in Shunzhou City, holding deposit receipts from banks from various places.

These caravans all planned to buy more mutton, wool, horses and cattle from Shunzhou before it snowed.

Horses, cattle and sheep in Shunzhou are considered the cheapest in the entire Tang Dynasty.

As long as Shunzhou's horses, cattle and sheep are sold to Datang, especially to the south of Datang, the price can directly increase several times.

Therefore, after these caravans exchanged all the goods they brought with them for horses, cattle and sheep, they would again withdraw tens of thousands of copper coins from Datang Bank to purchase a large number of horses, cattle and sheep.

However, what no one thought about was that Shunzhou was a newly built city with no aristocratic families or powerful people.

At most, they are just some merchants, and these merchants don't have much capital.

The richest people left are the herdsmen, and all the money of the herdsmen has been invested in horses, cattle and sheep, and there is not much money left in the bank.

Therefore, the Datang Bank in Shunzhou City actually did not deposit much money!

Including the copper coins shipped in advance from the Tang Dynasty Bank in Chang'an, the maximum amount is more than 200,000 coins.

There is so much money that there is no way for the caravans to get it!

In just five days, all the money was taken away, and not even a single copper plate was left in the entire Datang Bank in Shunzhou City.

After the news about Datang Bank in Shunzhou spread, the caravans who were leisurely selecting horses, cattle and sheep in Shunzhou City suddenly panicked!

Dozens of caravans blocked the entrance of Datang Bank!

"Manager Li, why is Datang Bank running out of money?"

"That's right, I'm waiting for so many caravans to come all the way from all over the Tang Dynasty, but they are all preparing to withdraw money from the bank!"

"Manager Li, I'm not forcing you, but I'm waiting for such a large caravan to come all the way to Shunzhou, not only to transport goods, but also to buy a large number of horses, cattle and sheep from Shunzhou!

Otherwise, I would have to wait for so many guards to go back empty-handed, and the food consumed along the way would be enough for me to pay for it!"

"Yes, Manager Li, just tell me, how much money is left in the bank now?"

"The Tang Dynasty Bank is the property of His Majesty, the King of Jin, and all the princes and aristocratic families. We don't believe that the bank has no money!"

"I'm waiting for each of these caravans to have more than 100,000 yuan deposited in the bank..."

"..."

"Everyone, I definitely did not deceive you. The money you deposited was deposited in the states of your family, not in Shunzhou. Moreover, the bank where you deposited your deposits is thousands of miles away from Shunzhou. It takes only one or two months to transport it.

Come to Shunzhou!"

Li Zhao, the steward of Datang Bank in Shunzhou City, explained helplessly.

He had just been sent to Shunzhou from the Prince's Mansion in Hejian County.

I am not very clear about these things in Shunzhou City.

I thought that the fact that Shunzhou City, a remote barbarian land, could deposit more than 200,000 yuan in just one month was worthy of celebration.

But he was not happy for a few days. Only a dozen caravans took out the more than 200,000 yuan in the bank that he had not kept warm.

But now, dozens of caravans were standing guard at the bank's gate, holding deposit receipts and asking him for money!

However, there was really not a single copper plate left in the bank.

Thinking about it, even in Saibei where he had to put on thick clothes, Li Zhao's forehead was already covered with beads of sweat!

Seeing that Li Zhao didn't look like he was lying, all the caravan managers couldn't help but look at each other, and then their eyes were full of bitterness.

"What should we do?"

"Yes, if I can't withdraw the money this time and bring back enough horses, cattle and sheep, something big will happen!"

"How should I explain this to my family?"

"Manager Li, this matter is the fault of your Datang Bank. Please resolve this matter as soon as possible!"

"otherwise……"

All the caravan managers were staring closely at Li Zhao, with both hope and despair.

At this point, if they can't withdraw the money and buy enough horses, cattle and sheep to go back, their caravan will suffer huge losses, and the master behind it will never forgive them!

"Don't worry, everyone, I have sent out cavalry two days ago to ask banks in Liangzhou, Ganzhou, Shuofang and other cities to borrow money. In addition, I have also sent cavalry to report to Chang'an!

I believe that as long as I stay in office for a few more days, I will have enough money and luck to come to Shunzhou..."

Li Zhao hurriedly comforted him!

However, he did not know that the cities in Liangzhou, Shuofang, Huazhou, Changzhou, Dingxiang, and Yunzhong in the Tang Dynasty were also filled with caravans from all over the Tang Dynasty.

All the money from Datang Bank in the city was taken away!

One by one, they rode quickly towards Chang'an.

Even in Qingzhou, Dengzhou, Fuzhou... some cities rich in local characteristics, all the money in the city was not taken away by groups of caravans.

There were more than 300 money houses in the Tang Dynasty, and dozens of banks sent fast riders to Chang'an!

…

Chang'an!

Tai Chi Palace, Liang Yi Palace!

Li Shimin sat behind the desk and reviewed the memorials handed over by the Central Publishing House.

Especially when he saw that the amount of money deposited in various state banks in the Tang Dynasty had reached 10 million yuan, he couldn't help but feel happy.

You know, the total taxes of Datang last year were 23 million yuan!

And now, just by opening a bank shop in the Tang Dynasty states, you can receive 10 million yuan!

Although the money does not belong to him, according to the experience of Goguryeo banks, he can use at least 30% of the 10 million guan in these banks.

Moreover, this is just one month's deposit for opening a bank.

If the bank had been open for a year, wouldn't it be possible that the bank would have deposits of 20 million guan, or even more?

The more he thought about it, the happier Li Shimin’s face became!

In my mind, I subconsciously thought of the strange rumor in Chang'an City!

The King of Jin should be the wealthy king of the Tang Dynasty!

On the side, Li Wei and a group of servants stood quietly at a distance. Seeing Li Shimin so happy, everyone could not help but curl their mouths slightly!

However, the good times did not last long.

"Your Majesty...I am waiting to see you, Your Majesty!"

Before Li Shimin finished reviewing the stack of memorials on his desk, Fang Xuanling hurried in.

Behind him are Changsun Wuji, Li Xiaogong, Du Ruhui and others!

"Um?"

Li Shimin was startled and asked quickly: "Auxiliary machine, Xuanling, Xiaogong, what kind of big thing happened, why are you so panicked?"

"Your Majesty, this is a matter for our bank in the Tang Dynasty!"

Fang Xuanling quickly reported the news.

"Qianzhuang?"

Li Shimin's eyes narrowed and he asked hurriedly: "It has been less than two months since our bank in the Tang Dynasty was established. What kind of big thing happened?"

"Your Majesty, in Shunzhou, Liangzhou, Shuofang, Huazhou, Changzhou, Dingxiang, Yunzhong, the northern cities of Saibei, as well as Qingzhou, Dengzhou, Fuzhou and other seaside cities, because there are many caravans going there,

However, not much money is deposited in the local Datang Bank.

As for the aristocratic families and merchants of our Tang Dynasty, as long as they deposit money at the Datang Bank in the state where their families are located, they can withdraw money from the Datang Bank thousands of miles away with the deposit certificate.

Therefore, less than two months after the Tang Dynasty banks were built in those prefectures, all the money in the banks was taken away by caravans from the prefectures! "

"And now, in every Tang Dynasty bank in these cities, there are dozens of caravans waiting to withdraw money!"

"Is that so?"

Hearing this, Li Shimin couldn't help but look solemn.

"Your Majesty, we have sent people to borrow copper coins from the nearest state cities. However, there are too many caravans in these states, and tens of thousands of coins need to be taken away every day.

Therefore, transferring bankers from those surrounding the state cities will only provide temporary relief, not long-term relief!"

"Your Majesty, especially in Shunzhou and Huazhou, we have more Tang Dynasty caravans in these cities, and the surrounding cities do not have much money. I estimate that the Tang banks in these cities still lack a lot of money!

"

"Your Majesty, this matter is related to the credibility of our Datang Bank. It is extremely urgent. We are incompetent and need your Majesty's decision!"

Fang Xuanling, Changsun Wuji and others all looked anxious.

At this moment, Li Shimin was also filled with worries.

Datang Bank claims to be the largest owner, but he is Li Shimin.

If even an ordinary matter of withdrawing money could not satisfy the caravan stewards, he could imagine what would happen to Li Shimin's reputation in the hearts of the people all over the world.
