After the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion was reborn, she divorced and married the prince!

The shopkeeper asked his clerk to invite Song Mingli and his servant to the elegant seat on the second floor to discuss the matter.

The door of the room where the master was was ajar.

Song Mingli and his servant sat down on the second floor, and Zi Su took out the land deed.

The shopkeeper carefully examined the deed and said, "Oh, I know these two shops.

"It's on East Street, a good location. Why do you want to mortgage these two shops to borrow money?"

Song Mingli looked calm. She had also done this kind of mortgage lending in her previous life.

Although it was not in this bank, the process was similar and she did not seem timid at all.

"I have some goods on hand and need some working capital to turn them around."

Song Mingli asked, "How much can I borrow for these two shops for one year? What's the interest?"

The shopkeeper immediately took out an abacus and started calculating.

He was about to report the amount when he heard a light cough from the room where his master was.

The shopkeeper's heart immediately tightened.

By the way, this is a customer that the master has specially taken care of.

He couldn't answer casually, he had to ask his master's opinion.

The shopkeeper looked at Song Mingli and moved the abacus beads back to their original positions.

"What do you do for a living, sir?" the shopkeeper asked with a smile.

“In recent years, the situation has been delicate, with the development momentum of various businesses varying greatly.

"We run a bank to make money, not to do charity. The review is stricter than before."

Song Mingli nodded slightly, "I understand. These two shops, one is engaged in silk business, and the other is engaged in grain business. Both are developing well. I plan to import some high-grade silk..."

The shopkeeper asked a lot of questions and Song Mingli answered them one by one.

The shopkeeper had asked almost all the questions, so he asked her to wait a moment while he went in to check the numbers again.

The shopkeeper returned to his master's house and said, "She mortgaged two shops and wanted to borrow three thousand taels.

"After my calculations, according to customary practice, I can lend her two thousand taels for one year, with an annual interest rate of 10%."

The master waved his hand and glanced towards the door.

The door was closed at this time, and he could not see the person waiting in the private room outside.

But on his handsome face, there was a faint smile...

The shopkeeper's heart skipped a beat when he saw this.

He had never seen his master smile in such an inexplicable way before.

It seems to make him happier than making a fortune?

"Two thousand taels is not enough. Give her three thousand taels for one year, and the interest will be halved."

The man raised the corners of his lips slightly and said in a good mood.

The shopkeeper's mouth twitched.

Master, are you here to do charity today?

Before he could say anything, he saw his master frowning, "No..."

Yes! Definitely not!

Money houses are used to make money!

With such a low interest rate, what do you earn!

"Lend her 5,000 taels, and take 30% of the original interest... This should be enough, and the pressure on her to pay back the money will be much less."

The master nodded, seeming satisfied.

The shopkeeper: "...Do you know those two people outside, Master?"

The master glanced at him and said, "Don't ask about my business!"

The shopkeeper nodded quickly and said, "Yes!"

After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he still stood there hesitantly.

The man raised an eyebrow and looked at him, "Anything else?"

"Such a high amount, such a low interest rate, if she knew the market situation, she would definitely be suspicious...

"What if he doesn't dare to borrow money from our bank? Wouldn't that mean he's doing something bad?"

The shopkeeper said, "How about...I hinted to her that it was the master who did this favor?"

The man frowned immediately, "Not right..."

After hesitating for a moment, the man nodded and said, "That's fine. Ask her to remember my favor. But don't tell her who I am!"

She is hiding from me. What should I do if she finds out that I am the behind-the-scenes boss of this bank and she gets scared away?

She is very petty!

Once she had completed the loan process and the deed was left behind...with it written down in black and white, she had to accept this favor even if she didn't want it!

Chu Yanchen raised the corners of his mouth, his eyes full of satisfaction.

The shopkeeper wrote the deed and came before Song Mingli and his servant.

"You came at the right time, sir. My boss is here too. He is kind-hearted and has increased your credit limit and reduced the interest."

The shopkeeper said politely, “You provide the deed proving your identity and leave the deed to the shop.

"Sign this contract again, and once we have reviewed it and found it correct, you can get the silver within three days."

Song Mingli knew the procedure and brought everything she needed.

But when she saw the contract written by the shopkeeper, she was slightly stunned.

"Five thousand taels, with an annual interest rate of 3%?" Song Mingli widened his eyes.

The shopkeeper's heart was pounding... Just look!

If she knew the market situation, she would definitely suspect fraud! Money houses are not charity!

"Sir, don't worry about the reputation of our Shenglong Money House..." The shopkeeper was panicking inside but didn't show it on his face.

Although it was the master's idea, if things go wrong, won't the master still scold me?

"I know, I know! I feel at ease with Shenglong Money House." Song Mingli was very happy.

In the previous life, Shenglong Money House had always had a very good reputation. During the two years when the war broke out in Beili, many money houses collapsed, but Shenglong remained strong.

Song Mingli carefully read the contract written by the shopkeeper, and Zisu also took out Song Mingli's fish bag and fish talisman.

The fish bag is used to hold the fish talisman, which is a small silver tag that is convenient to carry with you.

The sign contains one's name, place of origin, age, identity, appearance, etc. It is a person's identity proof.

The shopkeeper took the fish bag and fish talisman from Song Mingli with both hands and looked at them carefully.

Ho! It turned out to be a woman!

He was just saying, how come she looks so delicate! No wonder the master takes special care of her.

Eh? That's not right, she is a married woman, the boss is...

The shopkeeper stopped talking immediately and didn't dare to make any further guesses.

He recorded the information on Song Mingli's fish talisman and returned the fish bag and fish talisman to Zi Su.

"It will be done within three days. Should I send the money to your house, or..."

"No need, I'll come and get it." Song Mingli said.

The shopkeeper nodded repeatedly. He quietly glanced towards his master's room, but heard no movement from his master.

He then respectfully saw the master and servant off.

Song Mingli was about to get on the carriage when he suddenly stopped.

She stared at a thin young man outside Shenglong Money House, and her brows suddenly tightened.

When he saw the man's face clearly, Song Mingli's heart stagnated and his breathing became difficult.

"Master, what's wrong?" Zi Su was surprised and asked in a low voice.

Song Mingli closed his eyes and said, "I'm a little upset. Help me get in the car and sit for a while."

Zi Su thought she was not feeling well, so she helped her into the car and told the driver not to leave in a hurry and to wait until the young lady had recovered.

Song Mingli got into the carriage, but immediately opened the curtain and stared at the thin man.

Shisu also followed her gaze.

"Does the young lady know him?"

Song Mingli narrowed his eyes, pursed his lips and said nothing.

Of course she recognized him! The Third Prince's right-hand man, Qi Liang!

Qi Liang is good at business. In his previous life, he served under the Third Prince and made a fortune for him.

The Third Prince was able to get along smoothly and make many friends, and the money Qi Liang earned for him played a big role!

But for some reason, in his previous life, Qi Liang always targeted the Changning Marquis Mansion.

The Changning Marquisate had already gradually fallen into the lowest rank in Kyoto, but it was only because of her struggling that it was being supported.

Qi Liang, however, refused to let the Marquis' Mansion go... until later, when Gu Qingshan also joined the Third Prince's army.

Qi Liangcai spared the property of the Marquisate, but refused to let her go...

Song Mingli was puzzled. She had never offended Qi Liang, right?

In fact, Qi Liang should have never seen her!

Why does Qi Liang have such deep hostility towards her?
