Although Chen Xiaolan was a little stunned, she still sat down as she was told and said softly: "I wonder what the young master has to say?"
Su Shi's expression suddenly became a little hesitant: "This matter is not only cumbersome, but I can't predict the consequences, so I didn't plan to do it originally."
But then he sighed: "But now that the Chenxiangtang incident happened, we have to do this to see if we can make up for it."
"Master, please speak."
"In the past, the treasury only accepted money from wealthy families, princes and ministers. Now I want the common people to deposit their money into the treasury." Su Shi muttered, "The interest is calculated based on a monthly interest rate of eight cents. You can deposit and withdraw money at any time. It's not enough." The interest is calculated on a daily basis every month.”
After hearing Su Shi's plan, Chen Xiaolan thought for a while, looked embarrassed, and slowly shook his head and said: "I'm afraid it will be difficult to do this. There is only one Qianqiu Quality Warehouse now. Even if such generous conditions are given, the people You may not travel such a long way to save money.”
“If we want to cover this business across the entire capital, how many branches need to be opened?”
Chen Xiaolan lowered his head and calculated silently: "Twenty. But the point is not how many branch warehouses to open."
"manpower?"
"Yes." Chen Xiaolan said: "According to the conditions given by the young master, people will definitely come in large numbers, and the money they save will be fragmented, and interest will be calculated on a daily basis. The amount of calculation is so huge that it will be difficult for anyone not skilled in the art."
She thought about it again and continued: "And a branch warehouse needs at least ten experienced people to deal with it. I don't know if the entire capital can gather so many people."
"With the current manpower, how many branches can we open?"
"We can barely cope with opening two stores. If we want to open three stores, we will need to hire more people."
"Then open three branches, and these three branches are only open to the common people to deposit and withdraw money."
Chen Xiaolan smiled and said: "Young Master is here to prepare for a showdown with Chenxiang Hall, Tianbao Pavilion and Hong Sifang."
Seeing that Chen Xiaolan was so smart and guessed what he was thinking, Su Shi couldn't help but reveal a smile: "You are right, it would be too boring to just let them perform a one-man show."
"I understand." Chen Xiaolan said, "Do you have anything else to give me, Master?"
"No more for now." But then he showed a hint of worry and said softly: "You have to be careful. I suspect that the backgrounds of these three families are not that simple."
Chen Xiaolan hurriedly replied: "I will be very careful." Then she stood up reluctantly: "If the young master has no other instructions, Xiaolan will leave first."
Su Shi didn't try to hold him back, but just nodded: "Go and do your work first. If you encounter anything, come to me."
Then he shouted toward the door: "Brother Lin, give Xiaolan Cinderella a send."
Lin Mo immediately responded: "Yes."
Chen Xiaolan couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but she didn't show anything strange on her face. Yingying just bowed to Su Shi and Qin Nan, and then walked out of the study gently.
After Chen Xiaolan left, Qin Nan looked at Su Shi and said quietly: "Why did you lie to Her Highness the Princess?"
Seeing Qin Nan expose his lie, Su Shi was not surprised, but he couldn't help but ask, "Why do you think I'm lying?"
"Yesterday when you learned about the purple smoke rising from Guangdu Temple, Qin Tian Jian's meticulous work may have already spread the news, but you did not tell Her Highness the Princess at that time. Obviously you had other plans, and it was definitely not because of what you just made up. reasons."
Su Shi said with a smile: "Maybe I'm worried that Xi Zuo won't have time to spread the news?"
Qin Nan said calmly: "Using smoke to communicate means that the situation is urgent. Otherwise, this method of communication would not be adopted, so Xiao Zuo will definitely spread the news as soon as possible."
Speaking of this, Qin Nan's expression suddenly became extremely ugly, because she remembered the conversation between Su Shi and Zhou Jin, and Pei Xun had already implemented his next plan in the palace.
Qin Nan actually didn't know much about the whole incident, but she was very talented and had already pieced together the truth of the incident based on the clues she knew.
Pei Xun once said that the great cadres will flourish and decline, and will fall into chaos. How can we plunge Daqian into chaos?
Su Shi once guessed that it was because of his position as prince.
However, with His Majesty here, no matter how fierce and cruel the battle for the crown prince's position is, it will not shake the foundation of Da Gan.
Although she still doesn't know what Pei Xun's next plan is, since this plan is being implemented in the palace, the target of it is almost ready to be revealed.
Because the emperor is the foundation of Daqian, if the emperor dies suddenly and does not establish a prince, Daqian will inevitably fall into chaos based on the current situation.
Originally, Qin Nan couldn't believe that Pei Xun was so courageous, but suddenly thinking of the prince's death, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
"Could it be that Pei Xun's plan this time is aimed at..."
Although Qin Nan already had the answer in her heart, she was still extremely shocked. She looked at Su Shi in shock, hoping that he would give a negative answer.
Su Shi nodded slightly, breaking Qin Nan's last glimmer of hope.
"He really dares to do this?"
Su Shi smiled bitterly and said, "He has already done this."
Qin Nan looked directly at him: "Did you already know this?"
"yes."
Qin Nan looked at him with strange eyes: "Then why do you still hide it from Princess Pingle?"
Su Shi stood up, then walked back and forth a few steps, rubbing his forehead with both hands. His whole body seemed to be in chaos. He vomited for a long time, and replied in distress: "Because this matter is far more complicated than It's much more complicated than you can imagine, and I feel like I'm in a whirlpool now, and I can no longer discern the direction."
Qin Nan had never seen Su Shi like this before, and felt pity in his heart. He couldn't help but walked to him, then held his hand tightly, looked at him with gentle eyes, and said in a soft voice: "I hope you know, no matter you Whatever you face, I will definitely stand by your side."
Su Shi felt moved in his heart, held Qin Nan's hand with his backhand, and said slowly: "Actually, since last night, I have been shrouded in shadow and I can't calm down at all."
Qin Nan suddenly blinked mischievously: "I know."
Su Shi looked at him in astonishment: "You know?"
Qin Nan smiled and said: "Brother Lin said that you have been in a bad mood since you returned home yesterday, and you looked listless when you woke up early this morning, but you refused to rest and walked around the house like a headless fly. .”
At this point, her face suddenly turned red, but she still said softly: "I know you are free and easy, and you would never be like this unless you encountered something particularly difficult."
Su Shi couldn't help but hugged Qin Nan into his arms and murmured, "Thank you."
Although Qin Nan looked shy, he felt Su Shi's heartbeat and smiled with satisfaction.
