Volume Three, Chapter 15, Two Eunuchs

Jiajing still attaches great importance to Yang Cong's affairs. Yang Cong had just sent the memorial for 800 miles in a hurry. Jiajing's instructions arrived the next day. Jiajing's meaning must be followed, but he would send the mining supervisor as soon as possible and he would definitely arrive within three days.

This is understandable. After all, those who are emperors are afraid of rebellion. Even if Jiajing trusts Yang Cong, he believes that he will not rebel, and he is afraid that he will refine pig iron and sell it everywhere. After all, it is not difficult to mine this iron ore, tens of thousands of kilograms a day, and tens of thousands of kilograms a day. If he mines crazily for several months, the output is quite amazing. Therefore, people must be sent to watch, and no one can do it randomly.

Yang Cong also felt that waiting for three days was nothing, because the furnace for smelting pig iron also took time to build. According to Wang Xuan's plan, several melting furnaces with a daily output of 1,000 pounds were needed, and such a furnace would take at least ten days to build.

In other words, it doesn’t matter if the mining supervisor takes three days to arrive. It takes two or three days for them to gather miners and prepare mining equipment. It takes about ten days to build a furnace. Three days will not delay anything.

He was also busy because he not only had to build weapons and equipment, but also trained the elite border troops in Xuanfu Town to make these soldiers proficient in using thermal weapons and equipment and combat vehicles. He ran at both ends of the Xuanhua Factory and the Grand Craft Field, and was very busy. Two days passed quickly.

On the afternoon of the third day, soldiers from the Beijing camp finally came to report that the mining prison sent by the palace was almost here, which meant that people were welcomed outside the city.

Yang Cong was helpless. Although he hated these eunuchs very much, he still had no choice but to coax them. If he talked a few words of slander in Jiajing's ears, he would have to bear it.

He could only take Wang Xuan and hundreds of Jinyiwei out of the city and greet him more than ten miles eastward.

Good guy, more than a hundred of them were riding horses and running on the official road. A cluster of banners suddenly appeared in front of them. Then, dense figures appeared on the official road in front, and the number was at least thousands. Mobile::

This style is similar to when he came to Xuanfu Town, but there were no Jinyiwei in the team ahead, but all Jingying Tunwei.

These Jingying Guards surrounded two carriages, running one by one, sweating profusely. It was obvious that the carriage was the mining prison sent by Jiajing.

Yang Cong curled his lips and then beat the horse to meet him.

Soon, the two sides met, and a general wearing armor took the lead and rushed forward and bowed: "The last general, the Beijing Camp gang general Yun Mao, met the inspector."

Hey, this person actually knows him.

Yang Cong bowed and replied, "General Yun has worked hard all the way."

Yunmao quickly bowed his hand and replied, "It should be, yes, the marquis asks the last general to ask the inspector."

Marquis?

Yang Cong was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that Yun Mao was a confidant of Wuding Hou Guo Xun, and the Jingying seemed to be in control of Guo Xun.

Unexpectedly, someone else came.

I'm afraid these two dead eunuchs didn't expect that Jingying was almost the same group as him.

Hehe, it would be fine if you two are honest. If you dare to play any tricks, I will kill you in Xuanfu Town.

Yang Cong was proud of his heart for a while, then he came to the two carriages by horse racing, and said politely: "My father-in-law has worked hard all the way."

He didn't know what kind of father-in-law was inside, but everyone was just polite on the surface.

However, these eunuchs are quite arrogant. They have come to meet with one of their patrols. They are still sitting in the sedan chair. Are they trying to give themselves some advice?

He was complaining in his heart, when the curtain of the first sedan suddenly opened. A thin eunuch asked for it and bowed to the door of the sedan door and said, "You are polite. This is a trouble for the whole family. The family will not get off the car. We will have a good chat when we get to the place."

After saying that, the eunuch slowly lowered the curtains.

This guy is not very arrogant, but what does another eunuch mean? Why didn’t he show his head?

Yang Cong stayed there in embarrassment for a while, and the door of the second carriage slowly opened. A eunuch with a fat face stuck out his head and said impatiently: "Mr. Yang, didn't Eunuch Li say it? Let's talk about it after entering the city."

After saying that, he threw the curtain directly and sat back.

Seeing this, Yang Cong frowned. It seemed that these two eunuchs were not on the same journey. The eunuch behind him was obviously not in the same way. What's going on?

Damn, what are you holding? He snorted inwardly, then turned his horse's head and led the group to the city.

He also inquired about the eunuch's preferences, because eunuchs are incomplete men, and their pursuit of money and food, drink and enjoyment is generally different from ordinary people. In other words, they have to stuff enough money, and they have to pick up food, drink and other things. They can't be careless, and there is nothing else.

He was ready for all these things, and he didn't need the money anyway, so he thought he had raised two pigs.

The group soon arrived in the city. Yang Cong didn't say much, but sent the two to the two luxurious courtyards that had been prepared, and then went back to the house to get the money.

Now the eunuchs are very dark, and they are basically too lazy to pay attention to you if they don’t have money. Yang Cong has also decided to stuff 50,000 taels per person to block the mouths of these two dogs. Now he really doesn’t have time to play tricks with these two eunuchs.

However, the two of them were not arranged in the same yard, so there must be a order for giving money. Yang Cong thought about it and simply went to Eunuch Li's yard first. It seemed that this guy was pretty good. As for the one behind, he could only wait until he gave it to Eunuch Li before talking about it.

This Eunuch Li really had a good attitude. When he heard that he was coming, he actually ran to the door to greet him. When he saw the carriage following Yang Cong, he didn't say anything, and directly invited Yang Cong into the yard.

The two of them came to the lobby and sat down with their guests. Yang Cong bowed and greeted, "I haven't asked my father-in-law for his name."

The Eunuch Li bowed and replied, "I dare not, I dare not, the Miscellaneous Li Fang is a small manager under Eunuch Huang, the Sili Supervisor, and I dare not be the top scholar." Computer terminal::/

Li Fang?

Could it be the Lu Fang in a certain drama?

It's possible. Since this person is the confidant of the eunuch Huang Jin, it is not impossible for him to take charge of the Silijian in the future.

It is rumored that the eunuch Huang Jin is relatively easy-going, but he is loyal to Jiajing and does not oppress the court officials. It seems that it is true.

Yang Cong simply said bluntly: "Eunuch Li, I am not aware of any rules for the first time in the inspection. I don't know the amount of the mine tax. I brought 50,000 taels of silver, but I don't know if it's enough."

What kind of mineral tax is nonsense. Even if there is really a mineral tax, it will not reach Jiajing's pocket and are swallowed by these eunuchs.

Li Fang was stunned when she heard this.

This is the first time this guy has encountered this direct bribe.
