Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System Chapter 1428: Scheme (Part 2)

Chapter 1428: Chapter 1225: Scheme (Part 2)

This is a bank personally opened by His Majesty, designed for our convenience. Not only that, but previously when we borrowed money from money houses, we had to return it with exorbitant interest,

and even if we deposited money with them, we were charged high fees for safekeeping. But now, this bank allows you to deposit money without any fees.

No matter how much money you deposit, the bank will not charge you a single coin for safekeeping.”

As soon as these words were spoken, there was an uproar, with everyone expressing disbelief and skepticism. How could anyone be willing to take the risk of safeguarding your money for free?

We must understand that safeguarding money is a very risky business, and mishandling it can lead to significant losses.

Not to mention other concerns, consider just the copper coins; if stored for too long, they can rust and corrode.

Once the copper coins corrode, the once-gleaming silver will be nothing more than a wasted opportunity. Who in their right mind would do such a thing?

Could it really be orchestrated by His Majesty? They couldn’t think of anyone else who could pull off something like this; only His Majesty might not worry about losing money!

Yet the more they thought about it, the less it made sense. They couldn’t comprehend what was really going on. Just then, the man in black on stage suddenly laughed heartily and began to speak.

This laughter immediately attracted everyone’s attention, and they all turned their curious gaze towards him.

“Haha, everyone, do not be impatient. This young man here speaks the truth. This is indeed a creation personally devised by His Majesty, called the Dayou Royal Bank, established by His Majesty himself.

It is intended to facilitate the transactions of merchants, making it easier for them to deposit and withdraw funds. There’s no need for them to carry large amounts of silver around, which would cause societal unrest and draw the attention of those with ill intentions. If someone were to set their sights on your money,

it would be a terrible thing. You might even lose your life over mere silver. Considering this aspect, His Majesty directly established a bank. So, when you carry these silver notes, you won’t attract attention; no one will know whether you’re carrying silver taels.

Moreover, these are very convenient. As soon as you deposit your silver in the bank, you can withdraw it at any time with your silver notes, significantly reducing your inconvenience.

It is no exaggeration to say that if you conduct business between two places, you would otherwise have to endure arduous journeys with silver taels.

But with this facility now in place, it’s much more convenient; there’s no need to carry so many guards, no need for cumbersome convoys, just pack lightly, and you can go about your business.

And you can be assured of one thing: all the major cities have already begun setting up this bank simultaneously. The silver is readily available for deposit and withdrawal.

And as this young fellow said, storing silver here incurs no safekeeping costs.”

As the man’s words ended, there was an uproar among the crowd.

Perhaps the previous speaker wasn’t convincing, but this man’s words carried much more weight; he is someone who can bring out a mobile device. How could such a person lie?

This left the surrounding people in shock, especially the content just revealed, which left them utterly astounded. Could His Majesty really have undertaken such a thing?

If this is truly His Majesty’s doing, then it is a monumental achievement, ensuring they can worry less in the future. Without carrying silver on them, their risk of danger would greatly decrease. Just as that man said, carrying a large amount of silver often invites bandits, whose numbers are now beyond count.

It is no exaggeration to say that whenever they leave, they must endure strenuous journeys with a large guard force, only thus can they fend off those bandits.

But despite this, they were always on edge every time they set off.

Now, if this is true, if the silver notes are real, it will eliminate a significant inconvenience, making their journeys much safer.

And precisely because of this, their eyes lit up instantly, quickly realizing the implications, and they couldn’t help but feel ecstatic. Furthermore, the fact that storing silver doesn’t incur any fees was especially shocking to them.

They used to be on edge storing silver at their residences, fearing that the storage location might be discovered by thieves and everything would be gone.

But now, with these silver notes, it’s different. These are small and easily concealed; as long as they are hidden, they won’t be found, not like silver which requires a large space to store.

Seeing the expressions of those around, the constant changes on their faces, the man in black calmly exchanged glances with the previous speaker, seeing a different kind of understanding in each other’s eyes.

The man in black was in no hurry to continue the auction for the mobile device; instead, he left space for these people to digest what he’d just said. Soon, discussions began to rise and fall all around,

with questions being raised about aspects of the bank they didn’t understand, and the earlier speaker answered them all.

If anyone could read minds, they would hear the inner thoughts of that young man. Yes, that guy is no one else, but someone Lin Yi specifically sent.

The purpose wasn’t to increase the mobile device’s price; the real aim was to unveil the bank.

Mind you, everyone gathered here today are wealthy merchants and noble families. Over half the wealthy merchants are here, and such opportunities to gather them don’t come often.

Moreover, it’s not just the big merchants; even small merchants are present. This is a prime opportunity to spread the word about the bank; what better time could there be?

And so, layer by layer, the deeper strategy was ingeniously manipulated by Lin Yi, meticulously planned.

It is not exaggerated to say that every word spoken today was anticipated, with the outcome exactly aligning with his expectations.

Everyone remembered this event, planning to head to the bank immediately after the auction to learn more. If what was said is true, then there is no doubt that their family’s silver will be moved there.

This simple event quickly informed every merchant about the bank, an efficiency that is hard to come by.

Of course, there’s one thing that must be mentioned: at present, the bank won’t offer any interest on your deposits.

It’s not that Lin Yi is stingy, but due to the limitations of the era. Given that they’re not charging to hold your silver, this is already very generous and kind,

if at this time you offered them silver, who would even believe you?

Even if this directive was issued by His Majesty, people would still suspect whether it’s an attempt to confiscate all the silver in their possession.
