Chapter 1037: The Goose Plucks Its Feathers

Nothing was said all night.

The morning bell is leisurely, and the sky is overcast.

It's a little later than the usual Yuqi, but I still insisted on practicing, and I looked up at the sky in the bathroom, and I was a little worried, tomorrow is the day of the military parade, and it doesn't hurt if it's cloudy, so it's ugly.

After eating breakfast, Chang Yu hurriedly entered the palace, not because Emperor Chongzhen summoned him, but because he had other matters to deal with, which was better than meeting a few old men in the palace.

Chang Yu started from an obscure little eunuch and served as the governor of Dongchang in just a few months, with great power, and the process was more bloody, first playing some fame with fists and feet, and then being valued by the prince, and then engaging in a casino gambling boxing match in the palace.

That is, during the boxing competition, although he was still just a little eunuch with no power, he took advantage of the prince's momentum and lured the twenty-four yamen in the palace to bring together the bosses of the twenty-four yamen in the palace.

But since Chang Yu went out of the palace to Taiyuan to escort the silver, his life has been opened, first inexplicably very abruptly hung up a big hat of the commander of the East Factory, and because of his meritorious service in supervising the war, he will make money, and become the popular fried chicken in front of Emperor Chongzhen! Today is far from being comparable to them, and even Wang Chengen, who has now made the position of eunuch at the top, has to give him seven points of face.

The boxing match in the grass fence in the imperial city must be held every night, which is the only entertainment that the eunuchs and palace maids cannot do on weekdays, and there are also guards on duty to participate.

It's just that today's Chang Yu has long looked down on the revenue here, and the revenue of the big world outside the front door can be worth half a month.

But Chang Yu still doesn't plan to shut down the boxing here.

First, the life of eunuchs and palace maids is too boring and boring, and Chang Yu empathizes with it, so he leaves them a place to have fun.

Second, you can take the opportunity to train the eunuchs in the palace as a substitute for the palace battalion.

Since the trip to Taiyuan, Chang Yu has plunged into the army, and rarely entered the palace for the thieves who fought in the south and the north for Emperor Chongzhen.

So taking advantage of this morning, he entered the palace to convene everyone to meet, saying that it was to recount the old days but to supervise some things.

The military parade ceremony was proposed by Chang Yu, and it was called a soldier in the past, and most of them were done by military generals, and the emperor rarely participated, but Chang Yu proposed a lot of new tricks, in addition to the military department, the five armies were all governors, and the household department was fully responsible for the cooperation of the various yamen in the palace.

The meeting took place at the Imperial Horse Prison Yamen.

The Imperial Horse Supervisor, the twenty-four yamen, except for the most powerful yamen of the ceremonial supervisor, are all because they are in charge of the battle chickens in the emperor's twenty-six personal guards, and Teng Xiang four guards.

Chang Yu is still the same Chang Yu, but the little eunuch is no longer the little eunuch, in the Yamen of the Imperial Horse Prison, more than ten eunuchs of the Yamen surrounded him and congratulated him, and the high posture of the past was not seen at all.

Chang Yu turned around and beckoned everyone to sit down, these people all have shares in the Caolanchang Casino, which is considered a boat, and they don't need to hide their words, and go straight to the point: "How much money has you earned in the past few months?"

"I can't hold it and I can't be hungry, since we went to the factory in this grass nest, the business is far worse than before, and I want to make tens of millions of huge profits in one night in the past, and I will never return" Wei Dahai, the head of the Imperial Horse Supervisor, said with a smile, and everyone laughed, knowing that he was talking about the noble things that Chang Yu did in the bureau.

"It's not as good as before, but it's not as shivering as Wei Lao said, the new house you bought in Tieshi Hutong last month is worth a lot of money!" Chang Yu chuckled and turned the lid of the teacup in his hand.

Wei Dahai's expression was stunned: "Eh, the factory is ......"

"I heard that I married three concubines in one go, plus more than ten people in the palace, Wei Lao, you have to pay more attention to your body and bones when you are not young......" Chang Yu sighed, everyone laughed, Wei Dahai was slightly embarrassed, and sighed in his heart, if it is really the head of Dongchang, he knows everything.

"Hey, our family...... It's a joke for the factory father" Wei Dahai shook his head with a wry smile: "Our family has been more generous recently, but there is a grass fence field, and we have all taken what we have not touched the factory company's share, I don't believe you can let people check it."

Chang Yu waved his hand: "Our family's thirty percent shares plus the prince's two percent are now transferred to the name of Dongchang, and they will check if they want to check, our family affairs are not interested in this, and besides, they are all good friends, our family can trust you, and we will not make embarrassing things because of sesame grains."

Mao Daxiang, the head of the Huanyi Bureau, snorted: "Hearing that the Qianmen World is making money every day, the factory doesn't look down on these two eggs in our grass nest."

"Hey, Mao Lao, you can't say that, ant legs are also meat, and now thousands of people under our family in charge of Dongchang have to eat, and they even spend silver every day to exhale." Chang Yu sighed and said: "Old Mao, I heard that the dyeing workshop in the Qiantang Hutong of Renshoufang is yours, and it is close to the Dongchang Yamen, if you have any trouble, just come and say hello."

Forehead...... Mao Daxiang's face was also extremely embarrassed, and everyone understood that he was holding the little pigtails and little eunuchs in private.

"Father-in-law Chang, dare you not come to meet old friends today, you are here to fight the autumn breeze" Wei Dahai smiled, they are familiar with Chang Yu, and they know the habits of this little eunuch, that is a bamboo pole must be knocked, no matter who you are.

Chang Yu sighed: "I've been short of money lately!" “

"If you are short of money and ask the emperor to ask for it, your Dongchang is a serious field yamen, and now the emperor has plenty of money, why should Chang Gonggong follow us...... Right" Wang Dehua had a bitter face, and everyone echoed.

"The emperor has plenty of money?" Chang Yu pursed his lips: "Your vision is really high, you have copied tens of millions from Shanxi, it sounds like a lot at first glance, but you don't want to think about how many holes to fill up and down the Ming Dynasty, where you don't need to spend money, drought, locust plague, plague, war in the five northern provinces, war in the south of the Yangtze River is raging, food and salary are short, no matter whether you fight or not, you will reach out and ask for silver."

"Gotta ...... Father-in-law Chang, just say it directly, how much are you going to pull out from our old men" Wei Dahai is also single.

cough cough, Chang Yu looked a little embarrassed when he said this: "Look at what Wei Lao said, our family actually accumulates virtue and does good deeds for you."

After months of war in the five northern provinces, hundreds of people lost their families and their wives were scattered, and the capital, as the imperial capital, was the first choice for refugees, and at most nearly 100,000 refugees attached to it.

Although after the war, many people returned to their hometowns to resume farming, many refugees are still living here, including a large number of orphans, and Chang Yu wants to set up an orphanage.

"But the imperial court has already set up almshouses everywhere...... Wang Dehua raised his eyebrows and said, "Why should we ......?"

"The almshouse, there are many monks and few porridges, and everyone has it, do you think the children can grab a bite in it, do you want to live" Chang Yu shook his head lightly: "What our family wants to run is a solitary that specializes in adopting orphans, not only to raise them, but also to teach them to learn literacy, literacy and crafts, fathers-in-law, we are also hard-working people, let's accumulate some blessings in the next life."

These words are said to the hearts of everyone, eunuchs believe in Buddhism and Taoism in the next life, and all eunuchs who have a little money will build temples and accumulate virtue.

Everyone nodded: "How much silver does it get, Father-in-law Chang said the number, and I'll make do with it."

"It's not a decimal, but it's not huge, how about 100,000 per person?" Chang Yu said softly, Wei Dahai and the others glanced at each other, then got up and went to Chang Yu and arched his hand: "Grandpa Chang, you kill us."

Burst...... As for it, Chang Yu choked: "Just kidding, just kidding, say a little more, each of you will donate 10,000 taels of silver to build a hospital in the western suburbs."

Wei Dahai and the others breathed a sigh of relief, although 10,000 taels is a lot, since the little eunuchs have opened their mouths, and they are doing good deeds, they can also be squeezed out.

So everyone asked for some details, and then reported to Chang Yu the progress of the task at hand, to ensure that tomorrow's ceremony was not missed, and after some gossip, Chang Yu said goodbye and left, he had other things to do.
