Joy of Life: I, a man, became the Queen of Northern Qi?

Chapter 71: Opening the East Factory. (Please read it on Tuesday!)

After pointing out the mistakes of the two people, we should also give them appropriate rewards.

Otherwise, except for Shen Zhong, the others were all eunuchs. Although they were not afraid of the other party's backlash, it would still affect their efficiency and enthusiasm in the future.
As for Shen Zhong?

He has a very obvious weakness, and if he has a weakness, it is a good knife.

"This time, you have accomplished something, so I have to reward you." Li An pondered for a moment and said, "After that, the money found in Cai Nian's mansion will be divided among you~"

Don’t worry about whether the money is yours now, but just tell me whether it is a reward or not!

"Thank you for the reward, Madam!"

Shen Zhong and Yu Huatian said excitedly.

These two are now poor people with little wealth. Although their status has risen rapidly, they are too busy to focus on other things because of their urgent tasks. Also, the queen is very observant and is always watching them, so they dare not make too many moves as soon as they take office.
"Remember! It's His Majesty whom you should thank!" Li An corrected this bluntly.

"In the future, do your job carefully. I don't care how much money you embezzle. But you must understand one thing: no matter how much money is embezzled, 70% of it belongs to me and His Majesty." Li An chuckled and said to Yu Huatian, "Are you right, Xiao Tianzi?"

Yu Huatian wiped the sweat off his head, no longer showing the resolute look he had shown outside, showing a sincere smile, and said earnestly: "Your Majesty is right, I have something I haven't had time to report yet."

"explain."

"Your Majesty, please forgive me. Actually, the dirty silver we found this time is more than 7 million taels. The exact number is 8.13 million taels." As he spoke, Yu Huatian knelt down and took two steps forward, smiling flatteringly, "The extra 710,000 taels of silver could not be traced, so it was not registered. Now it is kept in the West Factory Yamen, waiting to be sent to you, Your Majesty, after the case is settled."

"Oh?"

Li An couldn't help laughing. He was saying that Yu Huatian had the guts to keep the dirty silver for himself on his first assignment. So it turned out to be because of this reason?
I think the original source of this money may be traced back to the eldest princess of Nanqing.

Will Junshan meet?

After a brief thought, Li An said with a teasing tone, "Seven hundred and one hundred thousand taels, don't you think of saving some for yourself?"

"Slave dare not!"

Yu Huatian expressed his loyalty, "The rewards from the Queen and His Majesty belong to me, other servants dare not lay their hands on them."

This is also true.

Yu Huatian has ambitions in his heart, and he thinks he is no worse than Shenzhong beside him. Money is enough for him...but the main thing is that he has money but has nowhere to spend it!

"You are a thoughtful person."

Li An waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "Everyone get up~"

The four of them stood up upon hearing the sound, and their faces regained their composure.

"Xiao Chunzi, now that we have money, it's time to open the East Factory." Li An stood up and walked slowly to the door. Seeing that the rain outside was getting lighter, he couldn't help but feel a little better.

"I thank you for your promotion. I will do my best in the future and will not let you down!"

Cao Zhengchun suppressed his excitement, bowed to Concubine De, and when she asked them to stand up, he could no longer kneel, lest the Concubine be upset.

To be honest, he had long been jealous of Zhao Gao and Yu Huatian.

The former has now taken office and taken over the responsibility of the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. To put it bluntly, apart from the nobles of the royal family, there is only one Gao Zhongxian who is superior to him in the palace. As for the others, whether it is to the eunuchs or the palace maids, he is more effective than anyone else! After all, it is impossible for His Majesty and His Majesty to remember every servant, right?

And what about Yuhuatian?

With the help of the Jinyiwei, he has brought more than 7 million taels of silver to the court.
Not to mention the successive confiscations of property and extermination of clans of guilty officials, which had already established his reputation. Didn't you see that when the court was dismissed, all the civil and military officials were polite to him?
A raging fire burned in Cao Zhengchun's heart, and he was determined to do the next task with style and vigor!
Obviously, the queen meant that the three parties should jointly deal with Cai Nian. Naturally, they would also have a share of the silver. Unlike Yu Huatian, Cao Zhengchun liked those yellow and white things.
"Now that your majesty has just ascended the throne, the court also needs money in various places. We can't add burden to your majesty. In the future, all expenses of the East and West factories should be self-sufficient! Now, just transfer the money from me~" Li An said lightly, not feeling that there was anything wrong with it.

Only when you give out the silver will the people below know who is the master.

As for the comments of outsiders, what are they? Li An doesn't want to hear them, nor does he care!

"Miss."

Cao Zhengchun digested Li An's words, then glanced at Shen Zhong beside him and reminded him, "Although the assassination has come to an end, the identity of the person who had contact with Yan Bingyun has always been unknown. I dare to ask the queen to let me do this job."

"Eunuch Cao!" Shen Zhong was about to get angry when he saw the eyes of Concubine De looking at him. He could only suppress his anger and said in a deep voice: "This is the duty of the Jinyiwei. I don't need to trouble you with the hard work, right?"

The East Factory is the East Investigation Factory.

To put it bluntly, it means doing spy work.

Things like eavesdropping, surveillance, prying open doors, climbing walls and roofs are all technical jobs, and sometimes there are assassinations as well.

As long as the emperor nods, not only the common people and petty officials, but also the high-ranking officials, nobles, and royal relatives dare to take action.
The Western Factory was the Western Investigation Factory.

Their activities are mostly carried out across the country outside the capital, and the two are somewhat similar to the first and fourth branches of the Nanqing Supervisory Office.

One supervises all officials in the capital, and the other governs all states and counties.

These are still considered internal matters.

To the outside, it was handled by the Embroidered Uniform Guard. It was obvious that the people behind the scenes in Shangjing City involved spies from other countries. Strictly speaking, this could barely be considered as his heavy business scope. How could he be willing to give it up?

"This man is a traitor to his country and collaborating with the enemy. Since he is in the capital, it is naturally the duty of the East Factory. It is not hard work."

Cao Zhengchun said sarcastically.

He couldn't let go of this opportunity no matter what.
"you!"

"Okay." Li An waved his sleeves gracefully, interrupting the two of them.

Although Li An was happy to see his subordinates quarreling and competing, that was all in private. If they continued to do so in front of him, it would only make him feel noisy.

Now that Shen Zhong was not strict with his subordinates, Yan Bingyun took advantage of his relatives, and he was in urgent need of a merit to stabilize his situation.
In view of this, Li An said: "The East Factory is short of manpower now, so let Shen Zhong handle this matter. While there is still time to deal with Cai Nian's matter, Xiao Chunzi, you should quickly set up the team."

"Slave understands."

"Well, you should pay more attention and take over the Rong family business group. Set up the East Factory and handle this matter at the same time. This is a way to make money, and it cannot be cut off."

He exhaled a breath of turbid air, and seeing that the rain outside had completely stopped, he no longer paid attention to the people in the hall, and went to the pavilion by the lake outside the hall. The people bowed silently and dispersed, leaving only Xu Chu and Zhao Gao behind, following Li An.

It can be said that it is
After the rain, the sky clears up.
