Qianqian almost wanted to say that Pang Tianshou was not like the palm print of the celebrant supervisor, but more like the strictest community police and security guards.

Tianlang quipped, "No, I really should get him dozens of big wolf dogs, and let him check these things every day, then it will be more prestigious, he is not worried about how simple Hou sex is?" The palace is full of female dependents, and even if a foreign minister is the queen mother's own son, he can't just run around and look at him, of course, the eldest companion stares at him with his own eyes. ”

Du Heng and Fang Zhi both flattened their mouths and stopped talking, Yu Qing'er continued, "Hou Xing didn't feel uncomfortable being stared at by his eldest companion, but he just complained a little after paying homage to the Queen Mother and the Concubine, I knew that he was coming, so I hid behind the screen, of course Hou Xing didn't know that I was here, otherwise I would definitely not say those words." ”

"What did he say?" Qianqian picked up the teacup, asked seemingly casually, and then skimmed the floating leaf and sucked it.

"He said that the minister gave the queen mother of the two palaces and several of our mothers to buy some New Year's goods outside, and he first sent them to the queen mother and the concubine, and as for ours, they will be handed over to the emperor in person.

Then he chattered that he was just a Guangxi general soldier, in fact, there was no rice, and that the general soldier was just a title, and the queen's mother changed the general soldier and governor system so much, and now he is not even a grade, and the commander's general military seal was also taken away by the queen, and he can now command only about 200 families. ”

"He also said that he is embarrassed to go to the court now, otherwise people will see that he always follows the second and third grade officials to the court, and he feels that it makes people laugh."

Tianlang snorted and said: "Didn't you give him a salt transportation division Tongzhi, that's from the fourth grade, twenty stones per month, a lot, right?" ”

Yu Qing'er couldn't help laughing again, "The queen mother also said the same thing as you, but Hou Xing still had a sad face, and told the queen mother that his salt transportation division is better than nothing, and so far he doesn't even have a decent salt transportation division yamen, saying that he doesn't know where to go to work." ”

So Du Heng couldn't laugh anymore, endured the abdominal pain and said, "My God, sister, the emperor, I should say this, after all, Hou Xing has earned seven thousand taels of silver for us this year, and he often enters the service a lot, we really can't count the silver he earned, and at the same time make fun of him as a monkey, right?" No matter how dark the emperor is, this thing is not beautiful, but it makes people feel that we are a little mean. ”

Tianlang pointed at Du Heng and said, "You, you are a little Pixiu, if it weren't for Hou Xing to give you silver, you would not even bother to read his jokes, but you will definitely not understand this matter." ”

Du Heng stroked his hair and said, "I know that I am the stupidest in our family, so you can tell me about it." ”

Qianqian said for Tianlang, "Well, Shiro's description is really appropriate, sister, I'll help you, a little Pixiu, tell me about my intentions with Shiro in this matter." ”

Tianlang's eyes also had some anticipation, Qianqian continued, "Let's talk about why I received his seal, nothing else, there will be no official seals for the governor and the chief soldier in the future, even if these two official names appear in the future, they will only be temporary, just like the official title of the governor, the power is issued and concentrated in one person, in order to facilitate the dispatch of resources everywhere, but if it forms a normal state, I am afraid that there will be a feudal town, and it will be revoked sooner or later with the governor and the general army."

And a person like Hou Xing should be the most unofficial and light, he is good at making money, but he must be an insatiable guy as an official. And Shiro asked me to give him a salt transport division with the knowledge, everyone knows that salt transport is a fat shortage, but he doesn't have the government to complain, if he asks me why I don't, I will only tell him that there is no luck in the Ming Dynasty now.

He must have been very happy at first, and it must have been fat and oily when it came to salt, but he didn't see his official title clearly, he was transporting salt, not selling salt. So there is no luck, where is there any need for the yamen, not to tease him on purpose, but we want him to see it, but not to touch it. ”

Fang Zhi didn't speak for a long time, and at this time she couldn't help but press her eyebrows and say, "Hey, you two are really bad." ”

"Is it bad? Hehehe. Tianlang endured the trembling shoulders and answered, "But we haven't forgotten to give him benefits, you know, there is not only one West India Company in this world that we just established."

There are also a few East India companies, which are so big that they handle almost all the commercial and trade business of the West in India and the surrounding areas of our China, and they even have their own mercenaries who can wage war against Fanbang at will.

And now, the British East India Company is planning to occupy the entire Indian peninsula! Know how big is Peninsular India? It's almost half the size of a Chinese country. ”

Du Heng and the others had strange looks in their eyes, they really didn't believe that a mere business could have the ambition to swallow half of a country the size of China!

Tianlang continued, "And the East India Company does not need a government in India at all, they are the government, and the tax rates of industry, agriculture and commerce, foreign trade, and national defense are all decided by this company."

Well, of course, this West India Company of ours is named this one, in the hope that one day it can compete with the East India Company, and even swallow those East India Companies and their industries in one bite, and at that time, will you say that the energy of Hou Xing will be comparable to that of a prince! ”

Fang Zhi's expression was mixed, and she raised her beautiful eyes and looked at Tianlang, "Does the emperor want our Ming Dynasty to also have a business name like your so-called East India Company?" Or is it to open up a large territory in the name of the royal firm? If this is implemented, the courtiers will feel that the emperor wants to introduce another Zheng He, and they will definitely oppose it. ”

"It doesn't matter, there will be a way to gag their mouths when the time comes, and arouse their great interest in this matter, for the vision of the West India Company, I also told Hou Xing, I said that the goal of our West India Company is the sea of stars, but he said that his own goal must be the sea, and all I need to do is to kick him in the ass and kick him into the sea."

When the family was sitting around the stove chatting, a galloping fast horse appeared on the lower cross street of Guilin City, with a small flag on the back of the red feather envoy, raising a whip and shouting: "One hundred thousand urgent, quickly dodge!" ”

Not long after, Wang Kun, the eunuch of Bingbi, hurriedly ran over with an eight-hundred-mile urgent item, shouting as he ran: "Long live the lord, one hundred thousand urgent!" ”
