Chapter 182: The Birth of Nine Thousand Years

On the first day Yang Xin arrived in Nanjing, he passed by in chaos.

Donglin Qunxian is temporarily truce.

After all, they also have to study what methods to use to deal with this little mad dog. Opponents who don’t play by the routine are always caught off guard.

Their past methods must have been useless to this person.

As the saying goes, scholars meet soldiers, it is hard to explain. What they are best at is rules, and they use rules to persecute people within the rules. But when Yang Xin clearly doesn't take their tricks at all, they really have to study new countermeasures again.

Yang Xin is not interested in this.

Like Duke Yan Sheng, he moved into the garden provided by Duke Wei, including the three hundred soldiers of the bandits he brought into the city.

But the remaining more than a thousand are temporarily stationed outside the city.

The explanation given by Chang Yinxu was that he was worried that these people and local people would be prone to conflicts after entering the city. He had to consider the stability of the city, and Yang Xin fully understood this.

Anyway, they are just not allowed to line up to the city with full arms. They come in just like casual clothes. As for weapons that are openly loaded in vehicles, what can Chang Yinxu stop them? These weapons are not prohibited by the people. Not to mention these soldiers, even ordinary people carry poles and three forks into the city, the soldiers guarding the gate will not stop them. There are a lot of swords, guns, swords and halberds that are performing on the streets.

In short, he respects the authority of the Nanjing garrison.

After all, they are also descendants of Chang Yuchun.

The two Dukes of the Chang family did not pass it down. One of their sons was deposed for crimes and the other fought for Jianwen to the end. Of course, some people also said that they died in the Lan Yu case. However, there are still many errors in the Ming Dynasty. For example, Sun Xing, the Ming Dynasty, died in the battle in the third year of Hongwu, but modern times discovered the records of the ancestor Guan Gong preserved by the Sun family. They died of illness only in the 23rd year of Hongwu.

The Chang family's Marquis Huaiyuan was later granted another title.

This is a descendant of Changshengyi Branch, but there are also iron vouchers.

Originally, after the fall of Nanjing in history, the only nobleman Chang Yanling who did not surrender to Jiannu, but took his wife and daughter to grow vegetables to live for a lifetime was Chang Yinxu's grandson.

At this time, he was already an adult and was also a member of Nanjing Jinyiwei.

There are also Jinyiwei in Nanjing.

The commander, commander, commander, and hereditary officials were all available, but this was a pure nursing home, all of which were the descendants of the nobles of various families and the descendants of the four barbarians.

These people have no power, they are just decorations of mixed wages.

The core of power in Nanjing is three people, guarding, guarding eunuchs, and counseling civil officials. At first it was not limited to any secretary, but later it became the full-time minister of the Minister of War in Nanjing. The entire Nanjing was actually a noble and military minister, eunuchs, and civil officials. These three people had the final say.

Ye Maocai and other prisoners, including the arrested pirates, were all locked up in the garrison camp outside the city. There was a mansion belonging to Nanjing Weaving. One thousand and two hundred garrison camps were stationed to take care of the prisoners. Their expenses were borne by the Nanjing garrison eunuchs and the Weaving Mansion. These people were also the emperor's direct subordinates. How could Yang Junshi pay for it? Not only were the Nanjing eunuchs group responsible for eating, drinking and having fun during the garrison camp, but also Yang Xinhua's previous...

"Yang Qianshi, if you don't accept me, you really won't treat me as a brother!"

Li Shi said seriously.

He was holding a stack of tickets totaling 50,000 taels, and he could withdraw them at a money house in the city at any time.

"This, how did this make it!"

Yang Xin said with a smile.

Of course, this money must be taken.

After receiving the ticket, he looked at Gao Yong lying on the bed next to him with regret...

"I heard that Gao Qiansui is highly respected in the capital. I originally thought that he could come and listen to the teachings more, but I didn't expect that Qiansui would have a sudden stroke again. This is all Yang's fault. Fortunately, Qiansui is auspicious and heavenly appearance, and I think it will be better soon. Before Qiansui recovered, the matter in Nanjing had to be worried about Eunuch Li. Yang in the capital was just a letter. Speaking of which, we are all our own people."

He said.

The eunuch in Nanjing is called Qiansui.

This is almost a convention. This title means that it is against the system. If it is not violated, it means that it is not violated. Anyway, there is no clear regulation. Except for Long Live, everything else is just a kind of respectful title of flattery. Not to mention that it is among the people and eunuchs, even civil servants will praise Qiansui when they see it.

Including Matteo Ricci.

Well, this title is recorded by Matteo Ricci.

But don’t underestimate this eunuch in garrison. His actual power is extremely great. Not only are thousands of eunuchs in the Nanjing Palace, weaving and Xiaoling, etc., all of them are under his management, and even the Nanjing city gate taxes and the army have the right to intervene. Matteo Ricci described his power as almost unlimited, but this is just outside the palace. In the eunuch system, his status is not too high. In the past, he was a foreign official in charge, but in the Wanli period, he became an alien in charge of the Sili Principal. He was a subordinate stationed in the Sili Principal Seal, who was stationed outside, similar to the director of the office. It was just a sentence to replace the Sili Principal Seal.

"Yes, to our own people, how about we brothers who are not as good as those of us?"

Li Shi said with a smile.

"Of course I can't ask for it!"

Yang Xin said.

In this way, they became brothers again.

Li Shi himself was Gao Yong's deputy, and he was in charge of the garrison. This person was very useful because he controlled the official silk fabrics in Nanjing. If Yang Xin wanted to engage in maritime trade in the future, he would inevitably get some good things from him and even entrust him to make some silk fabrics suitable for European royal aristocrats.

For example, embroidering an emblem or something.

This is the embroidery of the Ming Dynasty, representing the pinnacle of craftsmanship.

And at this time, the European nobles liked this.

In fact, by the end of the Ming Dynasty, the porcelain factories in Guangdong had already started to make porcelain with European aristocratic heralds. When they bought it, they had to use gold edgings, serving them like gems, and occasionally taking them out to show off and pretending. If they could use the Ming Dynasty court embroidery craftsmanship to embroider a few family heralds for European kings to hang them out at parties, it would be enough to make them crazy.

After all, this was the most fanatical Baroque period of European embroidery.

Those monarchs are really willing to spend a lot of money on this thing.

"I don't know what our uncle likes. Brother, I'll prepare early, and I'll bring a gift to my uncle when my brother returns!"

Li Shi quickly recognized his uncle again with Jiu Qiansui.

"I have a suggestion."

Yang Xin said.

"Brother, just say it!"

Li Shi said.

"If you want to talk about gold, silver and jewelry, this is nothing special. Just the same is enough. Our uncle doesn't care much about this. He often says that he is just an old slave of the Lord. Everything is given by Lord Long, so what money does he want? As for the woman in the Madam Fengsheng, she likes jewelry and so on, but for our uncle, I think you have to change the way to make him happy."

Yang Xin said.

"Brother, please tell me!"

As Li Shi spoke, he stuffed a stack of ominous tickets into his hands.

"It's very simple. Eunuch Gao is called Qiansui. What should we call us?"

Yang Xin whispered.

"Also called Chitose?"

Li Shi said.

"Do you want to kill Gao Qiansui?"

Yang Xin said.

"Then you're just nine thousand years old?"

Lee Shi asked uncertainly with wide eyes.

"You said this, but I haven't said anything."

Yang Xin said.

"Brother, thank you!"

Li Shimei smiled and stuffed a few more for him.

But this guy really doesn't lack money. His power is like the Cao family in history. The eunuch in Nanjing weaving is equivalent to the Jiangning weaving in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Silver or something is not worth mentioning to these guys.

In this way, the task of turning Eunuch Wei into Nine Thousand Years was handed over to him.

This is also sharing the bad reputation for Yang Xin.

After all, he was much more popular than Jiu Qiansui during this period, and Jiu Qiansui was not so infamous. However, if the Nanjing eunuch group headed by Li Shi first called out the title of Jiu Qiansui to curry favor with him, Jiu Qiansui would become the target of attack by civil servants. After all, this title is still too horrifying. By the way, Yang Xin can be considered a cheating master, but Jiu Qiansui will like it. He finally got through it in his fifties. If you want to say that money is really not the most important to him, on the contrary, this kind of vanity satisfaction is the most important.

Nine Thousand Years is indeed notorious for making money.

But he made money for Tianqi. From the 46th year of Wanli to last year, the Liaodong battlefield only cost 15 million taels in total. How much tax was the total in the Ming Dynasty in the past two years? How could he fill the money in this bottomless pit if he didn't make money crazy?

There is no difference between him and Apocalypse.

The Apocalypse doesn't care how his money comes, and the emperor only cares whether he can take it out when he uses it.

Even if the money was taken from others by blackmail.

"One more thing."

Yang Xin said.

While speaking, he looked at Gao Yong, who was pretending to be paralyzed on the bed.

"I might as well tell you directly that I'm here to make trouble.

His Majesty was furious because of the last time the temple crying incident, and asked me to clean up those increasingly unrestrained bastards for him.

I can say clearly that I am here to kill people.

Whoever dares to stop me in this matter will kill anyone. If someone blocks me, kills people and Buddhas.

But I also know that you are here for Master Long, and you will inevitably have to use the place in the future, which is not convenient to break up with them. So I don’t ask you to do anything, but you must also understand your identity. If someone is sorry Master Long, don’t blame me for being merciless. Not only the official in Nandu, Brother Li also told the nobles of various families on my behalf, I, Yang Xin, is a straightforward person, and I will say clearly what I have to say, and they don’t have to worry about anything. I am not here to deal with them.

But they shouldn't jump into this battlefield by themselves.

I don't ask them to do anything, but they should not be used by others. During this period, it may inevitably affect their interests, but Long live the emperor will compensate them afterwards."

He continued.

"Brother Yang, don't worry, we all know which side we should stand on."

Li Shi said quickly.

"Then please ask Brother Li to prepare a batch of fast ships that can carry one thousand soldiers for me, and you must wait for the order at Xiaguan Pier at any time."

Yang Xin said.
