The first assistant of the poor family

Chapter 483

A letter is just a piece of cake for Governor Wu, but it is of great significance to Xie Shen.

If he wants to conscript in Zhejiang Province, he cannot do without his own people.It is best for this person to be an officer of the Thousand Households Office in this province, so that everything will be arranged smoothly.

Naturally, he thought of Pei Qianhu who he had a good relationship with.

At that time Xie Shen was not well-known, but Pei Qianhu took the initiative to make friends with him, which is enough to see that this person is not a hypocritical and snobbish person.

It's just that the Qianhu Office that Pei Qianhu is in charge of is located in Shaoxing, so Xie Shen asked Governor Wu to write a letter to transfer Pei Qianhu to Hangzhou.

You must know that the governor Wu Zhen has the final say in the entire Zhejiang Province, and transferring a thousand households is just a matter of lip service.

Xie Shen chatted with Wu Zhen for a few more words, then left Governor Wu's other courtyard and returned to the governor's yamen.

At this time, the governor's yamen has long been used as the temporary palace of the emperor, so it is heavily guarded.Anyone who wants to get close will be severely interrogated, even the imperial court officials.

Of course Xie Shen is an exception.

Seeing Mr. Xiaoge approaching, Chen Qiao, the guard in charge of Jinyiwei Qianhu, laughed and said, "Mr. Xiaoge is probably back. Eunuch Zhang sent people all over Hangzhou Mansion to look for you."

"Eunuch Zhang looking for me?"

Xie Shen was slightly taken aback, completely puzzled.

At this time, shouldn't Zhang Yong surround the Emperor Zhengde and offer all kinds of rare treasures, the beautiful rabbit brother, in order to please the Sacred Heart?How can there be time to find him?

"Thank you Chen Qianhu."

Xie Shen has always been very polite to these Jinyi guards around the emperor.

Even if the other party is just a small thousand household and his status is very different from his, he will treat him with courtesy.

There's no way, Jinyiwei's organization is too terrible, offending anyone can't offend Jinyiwei's people, otherwise a shit basin will stink if it doesn't die.

After Liu Jin, the Qihu, who had been orderly before, became agitated in an instant.

The servants headed by Gu Dayong and Zhang Yong wanted to take Liu Jin's position and become the number one servant beside the emperor.

They tried their best to please the emperor.But they found that no one could really replace Liu Jin in the end.

But right now Zhang Yong and Gu Dayong are still one position ahead of the others.

Xie Shen walked across the courtyard and bumped into Zhang Yong at the Moon Gate of Orchid Garden.

Eunuch Zhang immediately held his chest and yelled in pain: "Oh, my family is hurting to death, my family is hurting to death."

Xie Shen couldn't laugh or cry.

Is it so exaggerated?

Zhang Yongzheng was about to curse, but when he looked up and saw that it was Mr. Xiaoge, the anger on his face dissipated immediately, replaced by a courteous smile.

"Oh, it turned out to be Mr. Xiaoge. This collision almost broke our family's bones."

Xie Shen just wanted to roll his eyes, the effect of force is mutual, and it is the same for me when you are hit.Why did I hear you howling here.

"Is Eunuch Zhang okay?"

Xie Shen's voice is very gentle, making people feel like spring breeze.

Zhang Yong said with a smug smile, "Our family is just joking with Xiao Ge."

He thought in his heart that if it were someone else, our family would definitely have him skinned and cramped. As for Xie Shen, he had no choice but to endure it.

"Our family is looking for the elder Xiaoge everywhere, but it makes our family anxious to death."

"Oh? But His Majesty has issued a decree?"

Zhang Yong repeatedly waved his hands and said: "It's not that the emperor has an order, but our family is looking for the elder Xiaoge."

Now Xie Shen was even more confused.

What does it mean?Did Zhang Yong have something to do with him?

Zhang Yong pulled Xie Shen into the pavilion beside him, and said in a low voice, "Our family wants to ask Mr. Xiao Ge for something, Mr. Xiao Ge must not refuse."

"Eunuch Zhang, let's talk about it."

Xie Shen said calmly.

Zhang Yongyi gritted his teeth and said: "Our family has a younger brother who is doing business in Hangzhou, and he is a bit small. Just now he came to our family and said that the president of the Chamber of Commerce asked them to donate money. The advantage is that they can get the right to set up a weaving factory. I don't know if in this way?"

I rely on!

Xie Shen thought to himself that Mr. Ning Yining's legs and feet are too nimble, right?As soon as he left, Ning Yi gathered the people from the Hangzhou Chamber of Commerce.

This efficiency is fine!
Xie Shen hesitated for a moment. It seemed that there was no need to hide this matter from Zhang Yong, so he simply nodded and said, "Yes, His Majesty issued an imperial decree, and Xie has been carrying it out in Jiangnan."

"If this is the case, our family will have to beg Xiaoge for an old sentence with an old face."

Zhang Yong sighed and said, "Can we get rid of my younger brother's money?"

"Eunuch Zhang misunderstood. Those who donate money can get the right to set up factories, but it doesn't mean that all members of the chamber of commerce must donate money, but those who don't donate money cannot set up factories."

Xie Shen suspected that he had heard wrong.Isn't there something wrong with this Yong brain?Offering a piece of money in exchange for the right to open a weaving factory is a huge profit, and only a fool would refuse.

Xie Shen felt that it was necessary to ask Zhang Yong to see the doctor, or buy some walnuts to refresh his mind.

Seeing Xie Shen's surprised face, Zhang Yong hesitated for a moment, and then sighed: "Xiaoge doesn't know something. Our ineffective younger brother is working for the weaving bureau, so he doesn't have to do the business of opening a weaving factory. Was it a waste of money?"

Uh.
When Zhang Yong said this, Xie Shen immediately understood.

Generally speaking, it is difficult for merchants who cooperate with the Weaving Bureau to make money. First, the price of silk purchased by the imperial court is already lower than the market price, and second, there are layers of exploitation by the eunuchs of the Weaving Bureau.

In the hands of cooperative merchants, there are no more three melons and two dates left.

But Zhang Yong's younger brother is unusual.He is the younger brother of Daquan Eunuch!
The weaving bureau is run by eunuchs, and its leader, the eunuch, will definitely show favor to Zhang Yong.

There are many ways to show favor, the simplest one is to give the profit to Zhang Yong's younger brother and ask him to monopolize the orders of the Weaving Bureau.

There is plenty of oil and water to be fished here, and Zhang Yong probably got a lot of money.

It is not difficult to explain why Zhang Yong was annoyed that Ning Yi called the members of the chamber of commerce to donate together.

Zhang Yong's younger brother originally cooperated with the Weaving Bureau and monopolized large silk weaving orders.Now there are more competitors for no reason, and he is required to pay for a weaving quota. Isn't this taking off your pants and farting!
Human nature is selfish, and Zhang Yong's younger brother is no exception.

Obviously, he can obtain the qualification of weaving without donating the money, so why should he bleed profusely.You must know that it is not a few hundred taels, a few thousand taels, as long as you donate, it is at least ten thousand taels.

Therefore, Zhang Yong, the precious brother, found Zhang Yong, hoping that his brother could find out some news.

In Xie Shen's view, Zhang Yong's younger brother is not only worried about donating money, but also the impact of the large number of private weaving factories on him.

In the past, his family was the only one, and all the resources were basically eaten by him, and the rest were basically some insignificant small workshops.

But now that the resources are being shared, he has nothing unique to ensure that his share will not be eroded.

After all, the orders from the imperial court are only part of the order, and the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River are the main consumer groups.

There is no doubt that brother Zhang Yong will soon lose his dominance in this area!

Based on Xie Shen's understanding of Zhang Yong, this person is definitely not someone who can be wronged.

Like all eunuchs, Zhang Yong's pursuit of wealth is almost crazy.

There is no way, who told the eunuchs to be infertile, if they don't seek some stimulation in other areas, life is indeed too boring.

Cutting off people's wealth is like killing their parents.With regard to the weaving bureau, if Xie Shen mishandled the matter, he would offend Zhang Yong.

Although Xie Shen was not afraid of trouble, he didn't want to take the initiative to cause trouble, so he said with a faint smile, "In this case, I don't need to make my younger brother pay the money, but the right to start a factory is also not available."

Zhang Yong nodded slightly and said: "Our family knows this, and it won't be difficult for Xiao Ge to do it."

That's it.

As long as Zhang Yong is on the road, it is not unacceptable to expose this matter.

However, three days later, Pei Yan, a thousand households under the jurisdiction of Shaoxing Wei, received the transfer order and arrived in Hangzhou.

Governor Wu wrote very vaguely in the letter. He didn't say whether this was a permanent transfer, but asked Pei Yan to come quickly.

Pei Yan didn't dare to trust her, and immediately brought more than a dozen soldiers to Hangzhou by boat.

As soon as he entered Hangzhou City, he felt the tension in the atmosphere.

The streets were full of patrolling soldiers, and there were even quite a few Jinyiwei in flying fish suits and embroidered spring knives on their waists.

He naturally knew that Shengjia was staying here, but he didn't expect the martial law to be so severe.

In the southeast, the city of the Three Wus, Qiantang has been prosperous since ancient times.

It's just that as soon as the holy car arrived, the sense of prosperity was also diluted a lot.

Pei Yan led a dozen or so soldiers directly to the Governor's Yamen, but when he reached the gate of the Governor's Yamen, he was almost pushed to the ground by Jin Yiwei who swarmed up.

"Let go of Pei, you bastards!"

Pei Yan was pinned down by several Jinyiwei school captains, and she was furious.

He came to see Wu Zhen, the governor of Zhejiang Province, and he didn't provoke this group of Jin Yiwei, so why did they beat him up?
It is said that Jin Yiwei is domineering and arrogant, but has it reached this point?

"You don't even open your eyes to see, is this place where you should come?"

A Jinyiwei school lieutenant snorted coldly, and asked, "You still have soldiers with you, do you want to rebel?"

Pei Yan said angrily: "This is the governor's yamen, why can't you come here? Pei came from Shaoxingwei under the order of Governor Wu, why not?"

"Haha, hahaha."

The Jin Yiwei captain looked at Pei Yan like an idiot, and it took a long time before he stopped talking.

"Did you know that His Majesty is stationed here at the governor's office?"

Pei Yan was completely dumbfounded now.

The Son of Heaven stays here?Why doesn't he know anything about it?This governor Wu is too foolish, he didn't explain this point in the letter, which made him almost get into a catastrophe.

"Misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. Mr. Pei didn't know that Shengjia was here. Mr. Pei came to Hangzhou after being ordered by Governor Wu."

"A transfer order? Wu Zhen actually transferred troops privately?"

Pei Yan quickly took a deep breath and said, "It's not a transfer of troops. Governor Wu just transferred Pei to Hangzhou. Except for these dozen or so people, Pei, a soldier from the Thousand Households Office, didn't bring any of them."

"Oh? Are you still an officer?"

The captain of Jinyiwei asked with great interest.

How can Pei Yan still be in the mood to joke with Jin Yiwei now, and sighed: "Pei is not talented, and he is a thousand households of Shaoxing Wei."

The military system of the Ming Dynasty was the Weisuo system. There were thousands of households in each government, and the guards were set up above, and the commanders and envoys of the capital were in charge.

And the commanding envoy is in charge of the Five Armed Forces Governor's Mansion.

Although Jinyiwei is also called Wei, but because it is a special situation of the emperor's pro-army, it is basically not subject to control, and is only responsible to the emperor.

That's why Jinyiwei's nostrils are all turned upside down, and they don't pay attention to the officers and generals of other guards who are also in the military system.

The captain of Jin Yiwei snorted and said: "It's just a small household, but you dare to lead troops into the palace of the emperor without authorization, you will die!"

Pei Yan was horrified, and wondered if these guards in Jinyi were out of their minds. He said it was a misunderstanding, and he still insisted on it.

After thinking about it, he probably understood again.Maybe these Jinyiwei want to take the opportunity to make a fortune?

"Misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding. Is it compensation for Pei to invite the brothers to have a drink together? Do you think this is okay?"

Jin Yiwei wanted to scold, but the gate of the governor's yamen opened in response, Xie Shen walked out from it, and asked, "Who is making noise outside?"

Captain Jin Yiwei immediately approached Xie Shen, flatteringly said: "Reporting to Mr. Xiaoge, he is a thousand householders who don't know how to live or die, and the younger one is teaching him a lesson."

Xie Shen frowned and took a closer look.

It didn't matter what he saw, it just made him happy and angry.

"Brother Pei, why are you?"

"Um, Brother Xie, why are you here?"

This time, Captain Jin Yiwei was completely dumbfounded.

How is this going?Elder Xiaoge and that thousand households from Shaoxingwei called brothers and sisters?Did he hear correctly?

"Let people go!"

Xie Shen glared at Captain Jin Yiwei, and said sharply.

"But Mr. Xiaoge, these people trespassed in the palace, and their crimes should be punished. How can they just let them go."

Xie Shen laughed again angrily: "I invited this person. What, you mean that Xie is planning to rebel?"

Captain Jin Yiwei shook his head again and again and said, "It never meant that, absolutely not."

After speaking, he glared at Jin Yiwei, who was suppressing Pei Yan, and said, "What are you looking at, let him go!"

Only then were Pei Yan and a dozen brothers released.

"This is not a place to talk, Brother Pei, come with me."

Xie Shen smiled wryly, and walked first.

After Xie Shen settled Pei Yan and his party in an inn, the sky was already getting dark.

He and Pei Qianhu ordered some food and wine at the inn, and chatted while eating.

Speaking of this incident, Xie Shenman said apologetically: "This incident is Xie's fault, and he didn't make it clear to Governor Wu. Such a big incident happened. Come, Xie will make amends to Brother Pei with this glass of wine. "

Pei Qianhu quickly waved his hands and said, "I can't do it, I can't do it"

He also just found out that Xie Shen was already a cabinet scholar.

There is no way, why is the guard relatively closed, Pei Yan is basically indifferent to the right and wrong of civil servants, so naturally he doesn't care too much about who becomes a bachelor.

"That's out of the way."

Xie Shen shook his head and said: "At the beginning, Xie was just a poor boy, relying on Brother Pei to take care of him, he avoided many troubles. Now Xie also has something to ask, I hope Brother Pei will not refuse."

Pei Yan looked embarrassed.

It's really unpredictable. He knew that Xie Shen was talented, but he never thought that Xie Shen would be able to join the cabinet and become a bachelor.

After all, there are many talented people in the world, how many people can really join the cabinet?
