Anyone who travels to the ancient city of Pingyao will go to the former site of Rishengchang. Some people even believe that not being in Rishengchang is equivalent to not having been to Pingyao
Speaking of the emergence of Private Money Houses in China, it is necessary to mention the Shanxi ticket number; and when it comes to the Shanxi ticket number, we have to say "Rishengchang", china's first ticket number specializing in off-site exchange, deposit and lending business.
Therefore, it is more accurate to say that it is due to the relationship between the two regions than to say that it is due to the inner origin between them.
Ri Shengchang, some people call him the grandfather of the bank, why does he have such a name, and what is the mystery in it? How did it rise and die?
Walk towards the "Sunrise Chang" ticket number. Stepping up the high steps and stepping through the gate, you will see two eye-catching plaques on either side.
One plaque is engraved with ancient characters; the other plaque is inscribed with a passage by the contemporary essayist Yu Qiuyu: "In the most prosperous years of Shanxi, the center of wealth was not in the provincial capital Taiyuan, but in Pingyao, Qi county and Taigu, of which Pingyao was the most popular."
Rishengchang was the first Jinshang ticket number. As a new type of industry, the ticket number industry had neither ready-made regulations nor mature models at that time, and Lei Lutai, as the first person who dared to eat crabs, had to explore and create in practice. And there were two difficult problems in front of him. The first is the exchange standard, and the second is the anti-counterfeiting of bills of exchange.
Extraordinary people since ancient times, with extraordinary aspirations, extraordinary hearts, with extraordinary strength, can do extraordinary things, in order to build extraordinary achievements.
History is condensed here. An exquisite picture scroll spread the spirit of Jin Shang for a long time. When the eyes touch Pingyao, the heart instantly becomes open.
The ticket number represented by Rishengchang has formed a set of enterprise structures and governance methods with unique Chinese characteristics and similar to the modern enterprise system. Among them, the most important ones include the separation of two rights, "top stocks", strict number regulations, "discretionary surplus, fatigue and rapid change" and other institutional structures, management methods and operation modes. Most of the sources of these systems originated from Lei Lutai.
