Chapter 191 Zuo Ci, Xinpi Daogu

In fact, banks are not completely capitalless transactions.

The "foundation" it needs is not gold and silver, not money and food, but credit.

Although the credit of the Eastern Han Dynasty government could not be said to be bankrupt, it was obviously impossible for He Yan to hand over the bank's business to Guandu.

As for the remaining emperors, they were naturally eliminated early.

In the end, the only person who can support enough credibility is Cao Cao.

As Cao Cao's eldest son, as long as he first pulls Cao Cao's tiger skin to clarify the affairs of the bank, as long as Cao Pi can reserve a large amount of copper coins, the bank's model will definitely become more stable.

"He Yan!"

I saw Cao Pi looking at He Yan with a look of great relief.

"I originally thought you were a heartless person! Now it seems I was wrong! Come! Come here and let me hug you!"

"Leave far away!"

He Yan cursed and dodged Cao Pi's sudden attack.

Just kidding, if it weren't for the fact that Cao Pi was the only one in the world who was qualified to open this bank through Cao Cao's banner, He Yan wouldn't have handed over this business that determines the lifeline of the economy to Cao Pi!

Cao Pi was accustomed to being disliked by He Yan again. After walking around in circles twice, he asked He Yan: "He Yan, what do you think the name of this bank is?"

"The name of your bank is determined."

But He Yan reacted immediately and put Cao Pi back from his thoughts that he might run away at any time.

“The name must be grand! And it shouldn’t be too vulgar! For the sake of the bank’s healthy development, in the end, it will make others trust the bank as soon as they see the bank’s name!”

Cao Pi nodded thoughtfully, and after muttering for a long time, he reported a name with his mind that didn't know what he was thinking -

"He Yan, how about calling me Cao Pi Bank?"

He Yan:???

"Yes! Cao Pi Bank!"

Cao Pi clapped his hands fiercely, pulled He Yan's shoulder and asked: "What? Is there anyone in this world who is safer than my name, Cao Pi?"

"Not only is it safe, it's trustworthy! The most important thing is, just like you said, everyone can tell who this bank belongs to at a glance!"

Cao Pi's eyes were filled with the expression "He Yan, praise me now", which made He Yan feel helpless to complain.

"Cao Pi Bank...are you sure you can endure the feeling of having your dignity trampled on?"

Trampling on dignity?

Cao Pi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.

"My name is connected with the bank, who dares to trample on my dignity?"

He Yan: "..."

In the end, He Yan had no choice but to agree to the name of the bank.

Cao Pi immediately beamed, and He Yan also began to contact several big aristocratic families such as the Hongnong Yang family, Yingchuan Xun family, and Yingchuan Chen family, asking them to help prepare cash flow for Cao Pi.

For safety reasons, "Cao Pi Bank" was definitely not allowed to open into Guanzhong where there was chaos at first.

Xuchang, Qiao County, Pengcheng.

These three places are the core hinterland of Cao Cao's power. There are few bandits and bandits. As long as we can gain a foothold in these three places, as Cao Cao calms down the troubled times little by little, "Cao Pi Bank" will soon be spread all over the future.

All large cities with developed trade.

It was also at this time that Cao Pi realized what He Yan meant by "trampling on dignity".

With the completion of the first "Cao Pi Bank" in Xuchang, the words of businessmen coming and going were: "Let's go to Cao Pi together?"

"Let's go! Let's go to Cao Pi today!"

——————————

Since Xuchang started with workshops and banks, it has become different from what it was in the past.

In Hewu next to Xuchang, the changes in these days are also not small.

Around Hewu, seven people sat in a neat courtyard.

There are five of them, namely Hua Tuo and Wu Pu's Xinglin Academy, Ma Jun's Tiangong Academy, Mi Heng's Logic Academy, Zhao Shuang's Mathematics Academy, and Yan Zhen's Geography Academy.

Under He Yan's prompting, Yang Xiu finally came to his senses and began to publicize the existence of Hewu Seventh Courtyard intentionally or unintentionally, and relocated all the craftsmen to Seventh Courtyard.

Thanks to its emphasis on farming technology, Tiangongyuan has the largest number of people among the seven courtyards.

The craftsmen inside burst out with amazing enthusiasm after getting some basic knowledge about mechanics that Ma Jun obtained in Deng Ai's study. Although there are not enough results yet, this must be the center of Hewu Seventh Academy.

The first existence that shocked the world.

Just when He Yan was thinking about whether he should help others a little more, a letter from Wang Lang cheered up He Yan again.

"Have you found Zuo Ci?"

Zuo Ci, as a famous old magician, He Yan has been coveting him for a long time.

Of course, what He Yan coveted was not Zuo Ci's messy Taoist arts and supernatural powers, but the alchemy skills Zuo Ci inherited from the Taoist Golden Elixir Sect.

Alchemy is actually a variety of unknown chemical techniques. If Zuo Ci'an can stay in Xuchang to study in peace, he will undoubtedly avoid a lot of detours!

In order to express the importance he attached to Zuo Ci, He Yan went to meet Zuo Ci the next day after Zuo Ci arrived in Xuchang on the first day.

Zuo Ci was dressed like a regular Taoist, but his skin was as smooth as new, and he looked as soft and waxy as a little girl's face, which really surprised He Yan.

return.

"Pindao has met Marquis Shen!"

Zuo Ci has alchemy skills, but this does not mean that Zuo Ci is really as crazy as in the novel. He is still quite polite when facing He Yan.

"I've met Master Zuo."

After He Yan briefly greeted Zuo Ci, the topic gradually turned to the purpose of calling Zuo Ci here.

After the conversation, He Yan could clearly feel that Zuo Ci was a little unhappy.

For a Taoist priest, the greatest courtesy to him is definitely not to ask about the techniques, but to let him spread the Taoism.

The reason why Zuo Ci came to Xuchang after hearing that He Yan was looking for him was simply because He Yan was in a high position and powerful. If he could curry favor with He Yan, he might have a chance to integrate into the aristocratic circle of Xuchang, and even let Cao Cao

Supporting Taoism is different.

But now He Yan's attitude towards him undoubtedly dashed Zuo Ci's hopes.

Fortunately, Zuo Ci was not the kind of person who gave up easily. After carefully looking at He Yan's eyebrows, he pretended to be profound and said: "It seems that Marquis Shen really doesn't know the wonders of my golden elixir technique!

Otherwise, why can’t we find out the clues even if we are being haunted by a kid?”

hehe!

here we go!

He Yan sat upright: "I have never believed in ghosts and gods. If Master Zuo wants to deceive me, he should find another way."

Zuo Ci, who was looked down upon, had a sneer on his lips: "Forget it! We are destined to meet each other! Even if Marquis Shen doesn't believe it, I will help Marquis Shen dispel this evil!"

Zuo Ci raised his hand and moved it in the air, as if he was really fighting something.

"Caught!"

Zuo Ci screamed strangely, pinched the magic formula with two fingers, and said to He Yan triumphantly: "Marquis Shen! I have caught this evil ghost! It's just that your mortal body cannot see it!"

"But don't be anxious! Let the poor man use some tricks and let this evil ghost reveal his true form!"

With a strong force, Zuo Ci took out a turtle made of paper from his arms and threw it into the basin.

A magical scene appeared.

The turtle made of paper seemed to have a soul, and it began to move around the water basin, as if there really was a ghost trapped in the turtle, struggling desperately.

Zuo Ci also breathed a sigh of relief at this time, and explained to He Yan with a sense of relief: "I have captured this evil ghost! This place of Marquis Shen has finally become a lucky house, and you don't have to worry about any filth in the future!"

Afterwards, Zuo Ci looked calm on the outside, but his heart was filled with anticipation, waiting for He Yan to fall in love with him.

According to past experience, at this time, the owner of the house was already stunned and treated him with extra courtesy.

However, what He Yan did was obviously beyond Zuo Ci's expectations.

He Yan walked slowly to the water basin with a sly smile on his lips.

This move by He Yan really made Zuo Ci very nervous, and the next move was undoubtedly a ground-breaking shock to Zuo Ci.

He Yan picked up the paper turtle that was still looking like a headless fly in the water basin, put it under his nose and smelled it, and the smile on his face completely broadened——

"Master Zuo, why does this paper turtle still smell like bear dog bile and carp bile? Could it be that all ghosts smell like this?"

Zuo Ci listened to He Yan point out the key to her own dosage, and knew that He Yan was definitely not an ordinary person, and what he did just now was indeed a sign of clumsiness.

But Zuo Ci is still stubborn!
