Royal Gold Medal County Magistrate

After all, only a few families have five taels of silver in savings and carry it with them.

Watching the supplies being taken away bit by bit, the greedy majority finally couldn't bear it any longer. A discordant voice began to challenge the staff guarding the supplies.

"You're asking for five taels of silver to deposit? That's too much! Does that mean poor families aren't allowed to save money?"

As soon as this voice came out, a group of people immediately echoed, clamoring about unfairness.

The staff guarding the supplies didn't panic at all, as if they had expected this scene.

With a smile on her face, she comforted the crowd, "Everyone, don't worry! Our bank is here to serve the people of the capital. Anyone can deposit money. I'll go ask the higher-ups for instructions right away."

After calming the crowd, she immediately turned and ran into the bank.

She didn't spend too much time before returning, smiling at the crowd and saying, "Congratulations, everyone! Our bank is opening for the first time, and we didn't expect you all to participate so enthusiastically. Therefore, the higher-ups have decided to lower the threshold to allow everyone to participate together."

"However, you still need to deposit five taels of silver to receive supplies, but if you have less than five taels, the minimum requirement is only one tael. As long as you bring four other people to deposit money in the bank, one tael each, you can share a portion of the supplies!"

The threshold has been lowered, and the conditions are very simple!

The onlookers were all smiles.

Depositing one tael is enough, as long as you bring four other people. That's too easy.

Neighbors, family, relatives, as long as you want to gather four people, isn't that like a game?

Then what are you waiting for...

Inside the bank, it was already crowded with people lining up, and more and more people were coming to collect supplies outside.

People with insufficient funds no longer hesitated and immediately turned to leave to find 'partners'.

There are only three days, and judging by this momentum, they might not be able to get anything. They should go home and get people as soon as possible.

.....

"Sir, we had great success today! We can't even finish processing the business. Everyone in the bank is exhausted."

In the backyard of Jingxing Bank, Liu Zhongshun reported the good news to Fang Zheng.

"It seems like we set up too few of the five windows, but fortunately, we have enough trained people to rotate through the positions. If this continues, it won't be long before our Jingxing Bank becomes the number one bank in Dajing. Should we start arranging the construction of branches now?"

Fang Zheng raised his hand and pondered, "Today... doesn't prove anything. The follow-up is the key. The people are only coming to deposit money for small gains, but whether they can truly keep it depends on future developments."

"What we want is not just to become the number one bank. Jingxing Bank must become a part of people's lives. Continue to carry out the subsequent deposit-gathering activities according to my plan, and after your reputation is completely established here."

"I will arrange for the newspaper to directly release the final trump card. From then on, our bank will have a truly solid position."

......

The hot scene of depositing money continued, and it was like this for three consecutive days.

Xu Wenshu had been observing near Jingxing Bank for three days. In theory, he should have been on duty in the office these three days.

However, he couldn't help but worry about the bank's affairs, which had become a major event.

After arranging his affairs, he came to check in person.

The results of the three days had already greatly surprised him.

He didn't expect the people to be so easily instigated by these small favors.

You should know that the people in the past had no habit of saving money at all, and it was impossible to easily hand over the money in their hands to others.

The banks in the past were institutions prepared for families with considerable strength, and ordinary people had no capital to cooperate with banks.

But now it seems that the influence of His Majesty and celebrities such as Fang Zheng, coupled with the greed of the common people, has overwhelmed their fear of the risk of losing funds.

In addition, the people who deposited money on the first day took out their money in public the next day and received interest.

As a result, many people really decided to deposit their money here and not withdraw it, keeping it to earn interest.

However, he still didn't think so. This matter was not that simple.

According to his observation, although there were many depositors, they were all the lowest-level people who coveted small gains.

The backbone of the people in the private sector had not yet entered the market and were still watching.

These middle-class people are crucial.

Today is already the fourth day.

Early in the morning, Xu Wenshu stood in the crowd and watched towards the entrance of the bank, while listening to the discussions around him.

Today, there are much fewer people depositing money than yesterday. Only half of the people are still holding on to the fluke of being able to participate in the event... It can be seen that once the method of inducement is cancelled, it will be greatly discounted.

After all, it is not a long-term solution. It is not so simple to successfully run a bank.

I just don't know if Fang Zheng has any backhands...

As he was thinking, two security guards and a staff member suddenly appeared in the bank, carrying out something covered with a red cloth.

After putting that thing at the door, the staff member immediately said loudly, "Everyone! Everyone!"

"The activity of Jingxing Bank depositing silver and giving rice, flour, and oil has ended! However, in order to thank the vast number of people for their support, this bank has decided to launch a round of more affordable activities on this basis!"

A burst of cheers came from the people at the entrance of the bank.

The speed of handling business at this bank is really slow. Everyone thought that since the bank's reasons led to not receiving rice, flour, and oil, the event should be extended, and they wanted to try their luck.

They didn't expect to catch up with a new event?

Xu Wenshu suddenly opened his eyes wide, pushed through the crowd and squeezed forward.

That thing... he had seen it in the bank on the first day! Fang Zheng was mysterious at the time and didn't tell him.

This is the backhand, so what exactly is that thing?

Before he could think much, the staff member's hand had already grabbed the red cloth.

Then, with a sudden force, the red cloth was thrown into the air.

Suddenly, the true face of the object under the red cloth was revealed!

"Wow!"

At that moment, countless screams erupted at the same time, and a vibration was faintly heard in the air.

Xu Wenshu ignored the noise and was momentarily lost in thought.

The thing in front of him was a cabinet, with a red cloth as the base of the cabinet top.

The four sides of the cabinet top were surrounded by four pieces of glass, two bundles high, without a top.

The most striking thing was the thing on top of the cabinet.

A thick and long gold bar was placed in the center!

A line of small characters was also attached to the glass.

【Grab the gold bar with one hand and get it for free.】

Seeing that the emotions of the onlookers were in place, the staff member explained with a smile: "Everyone, the subsequent activity of Jingxing Bank is to grab gold bars!"

As he spoke, he took out a white cloth glove from his arms, and then took out a water clock from under the cabinet, raising both hands at the same time.

"As long as you regularly deposit one tael of silver in Jingxing Bank for one month, you will have the opportunity to wear these gloves to grab the gold bar. After twenty-five drops of water fall from the water clock, this fifty-jin gold bar can be taken home for free!"

A big deal! Absolutely a big deal!

The crowd suddenly exploded!

"Damn! As long as you deposit one tael of silver, you can go and get a fifty-jin gold bar!"

"How much money is a fifty-jin gold bar worth?"

"A fifty-jin gold bar is worth fifty jin of gold! You don't have to worry about the next life!"
