On December 27, the sixth year of Tongzhi, it has reached the end of the year, the head of the palace military aircraft department cabinet and the courtyard are busy, the internal affairs office is preparing the palace ban under the annual reward, the tribute of the imperial village, the Nanxun Hall is densely packed in and out of the Sula and Baoyi of the Internal Affairs Office, a little eunuch is obviously ordered, holding a booklet and braving the snow to hurriedly follow the red wall, to the north, bypassing Cining Palace and Shoukang Palace, to the heart of the gate, the guard guarding the door knows this person, and said with a smile: "Xiao Guizi, how can I have time to come to the heart palace today, You rich boy never came to this place where there was no money to make! ”

The eunuch who was called Xiao Guizi ran faster, gasping non-stop, out of breath, and when he saw the guard speak, he quickly stopped, calmed his breath, and replied while stroking his chest, "Tong Laojiu, poured cat urine on an errand?" Don't talk about this joke, what kind of good money boy I have there, if the masters hear it and ask me to give money, then I really want to smash the pot and sell iron and let you take my boy's position, no matter how bad it is, say hello to Grandpa An, and give you a click below, and send it to our internal affairs office! ”

That Tong Laojiu scolded with a smile: "Okay, you little Guizi, you still want to let your ninth brother cleanse yourself, your ninth brother can't bear your sister-in-law," the two of them said softly, and the little Guizi said again, "Is Father-in-law An in there?" ”

"Naturally, I am waiting for the queen mother and the military aircraft to discuss matters, this time just called, you go in quickly, wait for a while, wait for the middle hall to disperse, and Gonggong An will not be empty again," that Tong Laojiu was obviously the leader of the guards on duty today, and the rest of the guards looked at the two and laughed, but they didn't bother, Tong Laojiu looked left and right, and deliberately lowered his voice, "I heard that brother, what kind of factory are you planning here?" ”

"Brother Jiu is well-informed, in the end, he is serving the Heart Cultivation Palace, coming and going, and hearing any news, it is inexhaustible. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Xiao Guizi smiled, "What does Brother Jiu want to do?" Factory, Gonggong An's subordinates, there are them every year, but it depends on whether they make money or not," Xiao Guizi patted the booklet in his hand, "No, I'll send the account book of this year's ash factory to Gonggong An, next year's arrangements have not come out yet, but there are a few soap and perfume factories to do, if Brother Jiu wants to buy shares, I will arrange it for you here, and if you move in the future, you will pay the silver and it will be over." ”

Tong Lao Jiu smiled, "That's thanks to my brother." ”

"What do you say, even if Father-in-law An also wants to look at Brother Jiu's face, he will leave you a share, but I am afraid that there are not many shares, you also know," the little Guizi showed a proud and reserved look on his face, "No matter how many factories run by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, they make a lot of money, and the dividends every year are not enough for this prince to catch up." ”

"Needless to say," Tong Laojiu nodded yes, "Those ignorant old stubborns of the Eight Banners, the Queen Mother was originally sympathetic to them and let them share in the annual dividends, they are good, and they thought that the Queen Mother had taken a fancy to their silver, and refused to join the shares, or we people can see it clearly, especially the heroes of the Taiping Army in the Eight Banners, just say that the Jinzhou general, with the bounty, is in the ash factory, but he has entered a small share, and the Jin family's family background is just a broken settlement, and the Qianlong Lord's leading family, now this family is up in the end, There is a big mansion on the edge of the Huangzhuang in the west. ”

Xiao Guizi said with a smile, "That's what I want to say, this disdainful person in the past, now they are all red-eyed, and they are in a hurry to buy shares, there is a prince, I won't say which one, I directly carried a few boxes of silver to the ash factory outside Xuanwu Gate, to say that the shares, Grandpa An personally went to greet him, saying that the shares of the ash factory have been set, it is really irreversible, the prince is angry, pulled down his face, and is ready to make a big fuss about the ash factory, fortunately, Grandpa An is very clever, saying that now everyone's shares have been decided, It can't be changed, if you want to let the shares, you can only let the queen mother's name out, which makes the prince dare not say anything, Father-in-law An also said, the silver will be accepted first, and the next soap factory will inevitably let the prince become a shareholder, so ah, the next money is not lacking, we have the guidance of the Queen Mother, and I am afraid that I will not be able to make money? Therefore, this matter of buying shares is not about having more money and less money, but not bad money, but ordinary people can't buy shares. ”

The little eunuch said a few words, said goodbye to the guards, and entered the apse of the Yangxin Palace along the corridor, and when he got inside, several eunuchs were waiting with their hands down, and when he saw Xiao Guizi coming in, he knew that he was looking for An Dehai, so he went into the Dongnuan Pavilion to find An Dehai and came out Just at this time, the Queen Mother had just ascended to the palace, and was summoning the minister, and An Dehai did not need to serve in it, An Dehai came out, and said to Liang Ruyi, the head of the Yangxin Palace, while walking: "Brother should be careful to serve today, these feudal officials are not easy to fiddle with, The queen mother's meaning is not incomprehensible today, so she first summoned the governor who entered Beijing, but asked the military planes to wait outside.
