Zhu Shun's third uncle came back not long after he went out, and found Zhu Shun happily: "Shun'er, the third uncle has already negotiated with the people of the mule and horse traders, and it only costs six coins of silver to rent a donkey for a month." ”

"You change that handwheel, and let's use a donkey to drive the spinning machine."

Zhu Shun didn't expect the third uncle to go out in such a hurry, it was for this matter: "Third uncle, you should go to the second uncle to discuss the candidate for female workers." ”

"If the handwheel is changed again, it will cost ten taels of silver, which is not cost-effective."

When the third uncle Zhu Zhongli heard that it would take a huge sum of ten taels of silver to change it again, the joy in his heart was instantly poured with a basin of cold water, and he left dejectedly.

There is ready-made wood at home, and it doesn't cost money to change it to a spinning machine pulled by a donkey, if Zhu Shun doesn't say so, it will be difficult for the third uncle, who likes to be budget-conscious, to give up this idea.

The donkey is useless, in order to make Jenny's spinning machine turn as soon as possible, the third uncle Zhu Zhongli hurriedly went to Wang Gong's factory to find Zhu Zhongyi, the general banner, and hurriedly finalized the candidate.

The next morning, when it was dark, the spinning machine in the yard began to turn.

At the end of the ten-month holiday, Zhu Shun took a few manuscripts to Wang Gongchang's yamen to order the mao, and not long after sitting down in the public hall, the great eunuch Wang Chengen came over to convey the emperor's message.

Now that the Jurchen soldiers are in the city, even eunuchs like Wang Chengen have a bit more of a solemn atmosphere, with a goose feather knife pinned to their waists and a flintlock pistol on their shoulders.

Wang Chengen's palm kept stroking the flintlock pistol, as if he was caressing the silkiest silk in the world.

Silk can reassure people who are greedy for money, and now what can make Wang Chengen feel at ease is only this kind of flintlock pistol that can be fired in two steps: "Zhu Zhangchang, the emperor said that this matter should be done as soon as possible." ”

Zhu Shun had long wanted to finalize this matter, because this matter was related to a plan for Zhu Shun, a plan that would not work until at least ten years later.

No matter how eager he was in his heart, Zhu Shun still shook his head: "Princess, you also know that if this matter is not handled well, it will be a big crime of killing the head. ”

With the Holy Decree, there will be evidence in hand, and no matter who impeaches Zhu Shun in the future, as long as the Holy Decree is in hand, everything will be free to relax.

Wang Chengen took out a handwritten letter from his arms and handed it to Zhu Shun: "There is no holy decree, after all, this matter is too involved, and the cabinet ministers will not agree." ”

"If you give a holy decree, you will also be sealed back by the cabinet ministers, but the emperor wrote a handwritten letter to you, and it was also stamped with the emperor's private seal, this black and white letter is enough."

Zhu Shun took the handwritten book, read it carefully, and made sure that there was no problem: "This kind of thing is better than sparse." ”

"Even if we don't sell it, the princes, do you think the powerful people in the capital will not have them at home?"

"Wang Gong's factory has relied on selling these things over the years, but it has made a lot of money, let them sell it secretly, we might as well sell it openly."

"At least it doesn't cost a penny of silver, and it can cast more than 30,000 flintlock pistols for the imperial court every year."

Military salaries and military expenses have always been the bulk of the imperial court's spending, and if it is really like what Zhu Shun said, it will reduce a lot of expenses for the imperial court.

The imperial court is now full of money, and it is very short of money, but it can save a lot of expenses for the imperial court, Chongzhen will not hesitate to agree.

It poses a certain threat to the stability of the imperial court, and it is also caused, which is better than a financial collapse and losing the world.

Wang Chengen nodded heavily, handed Zhu Shun a piece of water that even if our family died, we must keep your eyes, got up and left here: "Let it go, there is our family in the palace." ”

"Don't dare to say anything else, the wind on the pillow, although Zhu Zhangchang can rest assured, whoever dares to blow the wind on the pillow, our family will let him know how I Wang Chengen climbed from a little eunuch to the celebrant eunuch."

This matter is too involved, Wang Chengen dared to say such a big rebellious remark, just because he was worried that a handwritten letter would not be able to reassure Zhu Shun and give Zhu Shun a reassurance.

Zhu Shun looked at the back of Wang Chengen leaving, and didn't know what to say, such a remark that was enough to destroy the family and the clan, and the brothers didn't dare to confide in each other.

Wang Chengen dared to say it openly in front of several eunuchs, which greatly violated Wang Chengen's prudent principle, which is also the root of his standing in the waves of countless conspiracies.

Zhu Shun knew in his heart that Wang Chengen was not for him, but for the Ming Dynasty: "No wonder when the Ming Dynasty fell, there was only one eunuch Wang Chengen in the Manchu Dynasty who accompanied Chongzhen and hanged himself on the coal mountain. ”

I got the handwritten letter in black and white, and I accidentally got Wang Chengen's promise, and the matter was about to start preparations.

Zhu Shun walked into the warehouse where the rifled flintlock pistols were stored, took out a few rifled flintlock pistols from inside, and called a craftsman: "You go to Ambassador Zhang, and say that you will lend him a few carvers, gilders, and tinsmiths." ”

Wang Gongchang's sticker factory did not listen to the call, these craftsmen were all pulled up by Zhu Shun, and when they received Zhu Shun's order, it was like receiving a holy decree, so they hurriedly went to do it.
