At this time, mining must be handled by the mine supervisor here, with the Kanhe official document, mining is legal, without the official document, you go to mining that is private mining, it is to kill the head, these mine supervisors are also using this point to ask others for money.

Yang Cong has understood this, and it seems that this Li Fang is also the same as the rumored eunuch Huang Jin, who is relatively easy-going, and does not abuse his power much and oppress the courtiers.

As for the fifty thousand taels of silver that were given to him, this is the rule.

In these days, it is normal to collect money, and it is good to be able to do things for you after collecting money.

Yang Cong saw that this Li Fang was so refreshing, and couldn't help but arch his hand and said: "Thank you father-in-law, the official will let people go through the formalities tomorrow, and please bother the father-in-law." ”

Li Fang smiled a little embarrassedly and said: "It's nothing, it's nothing, the adult is a person valued by the emperor, and the things he does are also a great thing for the benefit of the country and the people. ”

Huang Jin has explained, what is the matter with the other eunuch, that guy obviously has an opinion about himself.

Yang Cong couldn't help but ask: "I don't know if the other father-in-law who came with him has a big name, he seems to have some opinions about this official, is there any misunderstanding here?" ”

When Li Fang heard this, he slowly put away his smile, and then said with a little meaning: "His name is Meng Chong, and he is the steward under Chen Hong and Chen's father-in-law. ”

When Yang Cong heard this, he couldn't help but chuckle in his heart, no wonder the dog eunuch didn't deal with him, in the matter of Yin Liu Shuxiang of Shuntian Mansion, he offended Chen Hong ruthlessly.

It's a big trouble now, that guy is obviously here to find fault!

What to do?

He couldn't think of anything to do for a while, so he could only get up and arch his hand: "My father-in-law has worked hard all the way, so the official won't disturb my father-in-law's rest and say goodbye." ”

Li Fang hurriedly got up and walked out with him cordially.

At this time, several carriages brought by Yang Cong also entered the courtyard, Yang Cong didn't say anything, he waved his hand directly, and motioned his guards to follow him back, as for the silver and carriage, they were given to Li Fang.

Li Fang looked at the carts full of boxes, and there was a hint of ruddy on his face.

However, instead of being excited, he felt a little ashamed.

This Lord Yang is a celebrity in front of the emperor, and what he does is also a good thing for the benefit of the country and the people, and he also accepts money from others, so he is really a little unhappy in his heart.

He held it all the way to the door, and finally said with some embarrassment: "This, my lord, it's not easy for our Huang Gonggong, and there are thousands of eunuchs below to feed, alas." ”

The meaning of these words is Yang Congmingbai, it's not that he and Huang Jin want to be greedy, if they are not greedy, the eunuchs under their command will have no money to make, so they will throw themselves into other big eunuchs, and they have no choice but to follow the crowd.

Yang Cong can also understand this, he smiled and arched his hand: "This official has heard the name of Huang Gonggong for a long time, but unfortunately he has never had the opportunity to ask for benefits, and if he has the opportunity in the future, he will definitely go to ask for benefits, and when the time comes, he will also ask his father-in-law to introduce him." ”

Li Fang nodded again and again: "It's easy to say, it's easy to say, when the time comes, the adults will just say it to the miscellaneous family." ”

This gift of silver, it seems to have something to do with it, it is not a bad thing to be able to have a good relationship with a big eunuch like Huang Jin, Yang Cong thought, next time he returns to Beijing, maybe he should really go to visit the big eunuch Huang Jin, but at this time, he still has to go to send silver to Meng Chong's dog eunuch, this matter can only be talked about later.

Thinking of this, he arched his hand again and said: "Father-in-law, send each other off, if there is anything in the future, send someone to inform you and say goodbye." ”

Li Fang hurriedly arched his hand and said, "Then thank you, my lord, I will go all the way." ”

This said goodbye to Li Fang, and the next thing was to send silver to Meng Chong, as soon as Yang Cong heard that Meng Chong was Chen Hong's person, he didn't want to talk to him about it, if there was nothing to do, he really didn't want to deal with this dog eunuch.

However, there was no way, if he wanted to open a mine, he had to sign an official document by this eunuch, so he could only go back to his house to get the silver and go to visit Meng Chong.

This Meng Chong really came to find fault, Yang Cong arrived at the door, and he didn't show up, this guy just sent a cronie to greet him at the door, and this cronie also dragged the same as 2580,000, and he didn't take him as a patrol at all.

Yang Cong was really angry, but he still endured it, the so-called small intolerable will make a big plan, if the manufacturing of equipment is delayed because of this little thing, as soon as the Tartar cavalry rushes over, he is very likely to lose the battle, and when the time comes, it will be a big trouble, and Xia Yan and his party are likely to unite with the great eunuch Chen Hong to rectify him.

He could only hold back his anger and followed the dog-fighting cronies into the courtyard and into the reception hall.

This Meng Chong seemed to be deliberately trying to provoke his anger, and when he saw him come in, this thing was still sitting there with the old god, seemingly waiting for him to see it.

Nima, Yang Cong held back his anger and said: "Gonggong Meng, this official is on patrol for the first time, and he doesn't know any rules, and he doesn't know how much this mining tax is, and this official has brought 50,000 taels of silver, I don't know if it's enough." ”

He just said the same thing to Li Fang, but the answer he got was completely different.

Meng Chong, the dog eunuch, snorted like a pig: "The geometry of the mine tax will not be known until you have seen the mine, and tomorrow the miscellaneous family will go to see the mine, and the silver will be left, and you can go down." ”

Nima, dog eunuch, you're driving me crazy!

Yang Cong really wanted to order someone to take down this guy and beat him violently, so that this guy could understand why the flowers were so red.

However, he thought about the consequences and endured it.

This guy must have deliberately provoked himself, and then took the opportunity to turn his face with himself, so that the matter of digging coal mines must have been delayed, without coal, pig iron cannot be smelted, and without pig iron thunder and fire dragon chariots, it will not be possible to build it, and it will be him who will suffer at that time.

He could only hold back his anger and arch his hand: "Okay, this official will not disturb his father-in-law's rest and leave." ”

Meng Chong didn't say anything, just raised his hand and waved it casually, just like chasing flies.

Sani chirped, Yang Cong held back his anger, clenched his fists, and turned to leave.

The next morning, the iron ore excavation procedures in the north of the city were completed, and the shopkeeper sent by his father had already organized the manpower, and in the afternoon, a cart of iron ore was continuously transported from the north gate and piled up to the newly built Xuanhua Plant.

Li Fang didn't embarrass the Yang family's shopkeeper, he just took a few of his cronies around the mine and the Xuanhua Plant at will, looked at the scale of mining, and didn't say anything.

Meng Chong is different, after this guy went to the Heiyanshan Coal Mine for a turn, he still didn't give him the official document for mining, and the shopkeeper of the Yang family went to look for him a few times, but he didn't even see him.

This guy is clearly deliberately delaying, Yang Cong received the news, and he was so angry that he was about to spurt blood.

What to do?

Is it really to arrest people and beat them up?

This guy is clearly forcing himself to turn his face, if he really arrests people and beats them up, it is estimated that Xia Yan and Chen Hong in the capital should be launched, and he will definitely suffer a big loss at that time.

The problem can't drag on like this, if this guy is delayed for two or three months, and the Tartar comes, he will definitely not be able to beat it.

When the time comes, people will pat their butts and leave, how will he explain to Jiajing?
