Chapter 524: After Death

Song Siyang knew that Chunxiang was Chang Yu's confidant, the second-in-command of Dongchang, and the big eunuch was a master and a master, like a brother, as for Lao Wu, not to mention, there must be something big about these two people coming suddenly, he didn't dare to slack off and hurriedly welcomed the two into the inner courtyard lobby, muttering in his heart that this early morning, what's the matter.

Magpies are coming!

Chunxiang and Wu Mengming smiled at each other, and then looked at Song Siyang: "Let's join forces to make a big deal!" ”

Song Si raised his eyebrows, thinking that the twelve Taibao in the capital had joined forces to become imperial merchants, and the purchase of military rations for the imperial court was big enough, and now what are these two masters going to do!

Octopus is Octopus, and the 12 Taibao subordinates have thousands of brothers to be settled, but there are also hundreds of people waiting to be fed under the East Factory, so they also have to make a living and do some trading to support their families, but the East Factory is a yamen in the imperial court and cannot show up to do business, so it has to be listed on the backdoor!

Song Siyang had an epiphany when he heard it, it turned out to be like this, no problem, what kind of business to do!

Dart game!

In the chaotic years, the merchants needed to escort the goods, the silver taels, the large families needed to take care of the home, the market demand was very large, and there were very few such businesses, which was a business that Chang Yu thought about and Chunxiang came up with overnight.

The dart bureau has official records and has been registered in the industrial and commercial bureau (imperial court) is in the Qianlong period, Shanxi Zhang Heiwu is known as the originator of the dart bureau, is the martial arts master of Qianlong, and later founded the Xinglong dart bureau under the encouragement of the Qianlong Emperor, which is the first in history to register the dart bureau in the imperial court, specially for the rich armed escort, escort cash ticket number, jewelry and other valuables, this is the earliest dart board in China. As soon as the later dart masters saw bandits on the mountains in the distance, they shouted: "Go with a dart and go, and return safely in half a year." In Shanxi dialect, "Hewu" and "Black Five" are homophones.

But there are also people who have studied that at the beginning of the dart bureau, there was Fu Qingzhu, Gu Yanwu and Dai Tingtong to oppose the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty and protect the merchants to escort materials, but there is no official identification.

It doesn't matter who eats the crab first, the important thing is that the crab can be eaten, and there are not many people who eat it, but there are many crabs, and it is certain that the dart game is a very scarce but incomparably large business.

So Chang Yu decided to open a dart bureau and rely on this to raise the East Factory.

Chunxiang told Wu Mengming early in the morning, and Lao Wu immediately shouted that he wanted to buy shares, which was already expected by Chang Yu, this guy just needs to give him a bait and he will bite 100%, and then Wu Mengming came to Song Siyang to discuss the matter.

After some discussion, the three of them made a decision to set up a dart bureau outside the front door in the name of Octopus, which was called Octopus Dart Bureau, and the people of the Twelve Taibao took care of it.

It is the most normal for the dart bureau to have an official background, but this industry has to deal with the three religions and nine streams, in addition to the robbers who robbed along the way, there are also Jianghu rangers, but the most important thing is to have their backs against the big tree, which is why many Jianghu people who are targeted by the government are not allowed to go in to get people if they live in the dart bureau, because there is a big backstage behind each dart game.

For example, in the late Qing Dynasty, the backstage of the largest member of the Eight Dart Bureaus was Li Hongzhang, and the security of his home was fully entrusted to the Huiyou Dart Bureau, and Song Yanchao, the founder of the Dart Bureau, was himself from the Shenji Battalion, which had a good relationship with the military.

Although Li Hongzhang's backstage is hard, but it is only a backstage, but the behind-the-scenes boss of the Octopus Dart Bureau is Dongchang and Jinyiwei, just by virtue of this, no one dares to find trouble in black and white, and now Chang Yu is going to create the Octopus Dart Bureau, in addition to escorting goods, silver two, protecting business travel, but also providing the business of caring for the home, which can be described as a combination of modern express companies and security companies.

The three of them discussed from midnight to midday, and they really felt that this industry had a vast market and great prospects.

"The overseer went south to suppress the bandits, and before leaving, in addition to explaining the establishment of the dart bureau, he also gave Octopus a job" Chunxiang said about the construction of the official toilet while eating, Song Siyang was overjoyed, and even Wu Mengming was also a major shareholder of Octopus, the more projects Octopus had, the more money he made, and the more he shared, he was naturally happy.

"It's really fertile water doesn't flow into outsiders' fields" Wu Mengming raised his glass and drank bitterly, bluntly said that the little governor has a flexible mind, and the construction of official toilets is handled by the Ministry of Industry.

"Lord Wu, the plague has been raging in the capital recently, and the cleaning and sanitation matters must not be neglected, and the factory man also said before leaving, it is impossible to rely on the people's consciousness alone, and supervision is needed.

Wu Mengming grinned: "The grandson of the Terracotta Division has recently been in the hands of Jinyiwei again, and he has to take advantage of the opportunity to be obedient."

"Look at what you always say, it seems that we have a personal vendetta, yes, isn't this all for the emperor" Chunxiang smiled and said to Song Siyang: "There is one more thing."

"My lord, but it doesn't hurt to say it" Song Siyang said in his heart that the magpies came to the door today, and it was all good things one after another, and it was difficult to return three joys.

It's not a happy event, it's just that Chang Yu wants to buy land and build a house in Panjiayao, more than ten miles southeast of the city, and the East Factory is not suitable to come forward, and there is no suitable manpower in this area for the time being, so he asked Song Siyang to talk about it in person, and then get a construction team to start construction.

After several explorations, although Chunxiang did not say it explicitly, Song Siyang knew that Chang Yu did not buy land and build houses for himself, but to house the wounded, to be precise, to settle the injured and retired eunuch army.

Injured and retired, the palace is by no means a place to stay for a long time, what has become of the imperial city after a long time, Emperor Chongzhen may not be willing to spend money to support these people in vain, after all, from the perspective of the emperor, the problem is another vision, one will succeed, let alone an emperor, how can he care about the quality of life and life and death of several eunuchs. If you turn the palace into a nursing home for disabled eunuchs, he will definitely not agree!

But if they are allowed to go out of the palace, most of the eunuchs are orphans, and even if they are not orphans, they are looked down upon by the world, and they are not tolerated by the clansmen.

Chang Yu couldn't bear these brothers who killed the enemy side by side with him, lived and died together, and finally died in a desolate and lonely old age, he wanted to build a nursing home to take in these disabled retired eunuchs and let them have a home.

It's just that he didn't expect that decades later: the world doesn't know Panjiayao, and it refers to Zhongguan Village in the southeast!
