Traveling through the twenty-seventh year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty, the first thing Shen Yan did when he woke up was to pay off his family's debts.
I owed more than 800 taels of silver, but I only had more than 2 taels left in my hand.
Others thought the Shen family was doomed.
Shen Yan discovered something even more terrible -
It's not that I don't have money.
The money is in other people's hands.
Some people have grain, but cannot wait for the buyer to pay; some have orders, but have no capital to purchase; some have goods in hand, but are eager to use money to turn around.
As a result, Shen Yan started a business that no one had ever seen before.
If you are short of money, I will give it to you.
But you have to tell me when the money will come back.
Starting from transferring a few taels of silver for merchants, to doing business in grain, cloth, tea and water transportation, and then to establishing your own remittance account.
Shen Yan originally just wanted to live a decent life in Ming Dynasty.
But when more and more businessmen put money into his hands, when local officials began to ask him to borrow money, when the flow of money began to affect the life and death of a city...
Shen Yan discovered it.
What he opened might not just be a money shop.
But one that is slowly unfolding——
