Ming Dynasty: I, Emperor Chongzhen, swear not to go to Meishan

Because there is no electricity, let alone air-conditioning or electric fans, half of the roof of the building is effectively insulated.

After the main body of the building was completed, the next step was decoration. The interior decoration of the building was also designed by Zhu Youjian himself. In Daming, it was also a new decoration that was ahead of the times. The windows were all equipped with bright thick glass, which provided good lighting.

Of course, the snitches these days are very powerful. Many of the snitches are masters of light kung fu. The outside of the glass window is a security window made of thick and strong steel bars. At night, there are security guards patrolling with trained hounds to keep alert. It's so tight that if you want to get in and steal something, it's a huge risk.

Besides, after the bank closes, all public funds are locked in a thick vault that can't even be blasted by a cannon. As long as the snitch's brain is not flooded, he will generally not break in and steal the money.

There is no need to pull wires, install water pipes, or paint the walls with powder or paint. Just nail the planed and varnished wooden boards and ask a painting master to draw landscape paintings one after another on the wooden boards.

After the decoration was completed, Zhu Youjian inspected it personally. The entire office building was bright and elegant, giving people a peaceful and comfortable feeling.

A row of two-story buildings are built on the left and right sides and behind the office building, which are used for employee dormitories, security studios and lounges, utility rooms, etc.

Imperial Bank has not officially opened for business yet, but security guards and some employees have already moved in to familiarize themselves with the environment in advance.

All employees are issued with a wooden identity card and use the card to enter the building. In addition to the identity card, Zhu Youjian also requires all security guards to remember the faces of all bank employees.

Although it was a bit overwhelming, there was nothing he could do about it. There were no high-tech things like swiping a card to go to work, fingerprint authentication, or face recognition, so he could only play with the most primitive things.

The salary of security guards is high and the benefits are good. Many people want to be security guards, and they ask people to find connections. Some even begged Queen Zhou, but she was rejected by Queen Zhou.

Empress Zhou was a smart person. She abided by the ancestral precept that women should not interfere in politics and did not blow the wind. This was the reason why she never fell out of favor.

The bank building has been renovated, all office equipment has been purchased or made, and the staff training has been basically completed. Finally, it is a matter of choosing a good day to open the business.

When Emperor Chongzhen visited the Imperial Bank Dongcheng Branch in Dongcheng District to cut the ribbon, security was a top priority.

On the periphery, Lan Fang personally led a thousand soldiers from the Guangxi Wolf Barracks to guard intersections and other places, maintaining order and other security work. Even the roofs were full of soldiers. Some snipers who were still training were lying on the ground with sniper rifles. Be ready to shoot at any time on high ground such as rooftops.

On the inner floor, there are Tian Boguang and Shen Baichuan personally leading the Jin Yi Guards to protect them. Zhu Youjian is surrounded by two old shadow guards, Zhu Shisan and Zhu Shijiu, and Tian Wujiu, a new shadow guard, who is a personal guard.

Under the triple tight security, even if an assassin wants to assassinate, it will be difficult to find an opportunity to take action. The people who can enter the defense circle are all well-known bosses with familiar faces, and they have also been searched. Anyone who is considered dangerous No items are allowed to be carried. Soldiers from the Wolf Barracks will keep them for you, and they will take them away with the receipt when you leave.

Even so, Zhu Shisan, Zhu Shijiu, and Tian Wujiu, who were dressed as eunuchs and maids, followed Zhu Youjian closely at all times, still scanning anyone who came close to Zhu Youjian with great vigilance.

In their eyes, no matter what happens, the safety of the emperor must be protected. In addition to the loyal old eunuch Wang Chengen who has served the emperor for many years, they will not blink even if the acting commander of the Jinyi Guards Tian Boguang and the governor Shen Baichuan approach. They stared at each other, and whenever there was any movement among these people, they would react immediately.

At the auspicious moment, amid the crackling of firecrackers, Zhu Youjian took scissors and cut the red ribbon, which also marked the official opening of the Imperial Bank.

Subsequently, Zhu Youjian, as the emperor of the Ming Dynasty and the founder of the Imperial Bank, delivered a speech and entered the Imperial Bank to handle private deposits amidst bursts of warm applause.

He was the first customer of the Imperial Bank, deposited ten thousand taels of silver, and the passbook number was 1.
