golden scales

The eunuch sitting at the top is Yang Fan who cracked the Nanjing Korean spy case.He was originally an attendant eunuch under the name of Wang Zhixin, but after Wang Zhixin was dispatched to Nanhaizi, he was left in the East Factory and transferred back to the capital to continue his old business.

Huiying Building is a high-consumption place, even the fifth-rank officials have to weigh their own salary affordability.On weekdays, it is mainly for businessmen to socialize here.If Sherenke gets a preferential price, they will also arrange a group blind date here.

As for foreigners, very few come here.

Therefore, Huiying Building has always been the place where the Metropolitan Procuratorate stays. Jinyiwei occasionally uses it, and Dongchang hardly shows up here.The reason why Yang Fan appeared here was because he recently discovered that the squires of the Ming Dynasty had also begun to entertain missionaries from Taixi in Huiyinglou.

In view of the implementation of the "Measures for the Administration of Christianity", Thai and Western missionaries can only preach in religious places approved by the Ministry of Educational Records, otherwise they will be sent to Liaodong for hard labor.At the same time, because the members of the church must be publicized and subject to the supervision of the court, the mansions of the country gentry who teach are also key surveillance areas.

Because the Department of Teaching and Recording does not have the ability in this area, it is classified as Dongchang. In a broad sense, it is also to prevent someone from leaking state secrets to Taixi priests.

There are not enough churches, and some people are afraid to go because of taboos. The religious gentry must find a new missionary place for the Thai and Western missionaries, so that they can play side-by-side.Back then, when he preached in Fengjiao's squire's home, he used the pretense of banquets and gatherings. Following this line of thought, he would naturally choose a restaurant.

And it must be a big restaurant.

People in the capital are so vain. When they hear Huiyinglou's name, even if they don't have a good impression of Yejiao, they will come to sit and feel why it is so expensive here.

After people came, they found that there was a Taixi Qingke with blue eyes and a big nose.It's not good to leave immediately.

"Eunuch Yang, should we report this matter about the Han Society?" the sergeant who was sitting asked cautiously.

Yang Fan shook his head, and said: "Of course, matters in the military are under the supervision of the Procuratorate of the Five Armies, and we will be punished if we cross the border."

Huiying Building is famous for its elegance and sound insulation, but no one knows that there are copper pipes in the dark.It is convenient for people from the Metropolitan Procuratorate, Jinyiwei, and Dongchang to monitor.The key private rooms also have sandwich walls and ceilings, which are places where Tibetans can monitor and listen.

The captain is the leader who is directly responsible for the investigation of Dongchang, and the number of subordinates is uncertain.The sergeant is only in charge of taking notes in Huiyinglou, so there are only two junior servants under him.

Yang Fan came to inspect the work today, and happened to run into a private meeting of the three giants of the Han Society.

"Isn't this private room decided by Tang Ruowang? Why are these three here?" Yang Fan dragged his voice.

"Eunuch, the little monkey has already asked the shopkeeper." The captain said.

Yang Fan nodded lightly, feeling that sitting in the dustpan was still too tiring, so he simply lay down on his side, with his arms upright and his wrists bent to support his head.Crossed his legs and swayed gently, and let out a joyful moan: "Shu Tan! The ancients said that this is shapeless, but they knew that the ancients were going against Shu Tan. Alas, it is the same today. Confucianism, Buddhism, and Taoism do not believe in it. What kind of Christianity are you going to believe in? I’m really full!”

"Hey, what the father-in-law said is true." The captain echoed.

"Our family has long said that the disasters in this world are nothing more than two introductions. One is those who have nothing to eat and make trouble, like rebelling against rebels and offering thieves; the other is those who are full and have nothing to do, such as These guys are taught by the country gentry." Yang Fan rolled his eyes.Looking towards the door.

He was lying on the floor, already feeling the vibration of someone coming upstairs.

Sure enough, someone soon begged to see him outside the door.

The captain went to open the door and let the man in.The man was really thin and small, he looked like a monkey, and he lived up to the name of a monkey.So there are wrong names in the world, but there are no wrong nicknames.The eyes of the masses are really discerning.

The little monkey was also eloquent. He saluted the boss first, and then greeted his superior. He quickly said, "The shopkeeper told me that Tang Ruowang sent someone here at noon. He said he couldn't leave because of something. The time was given to the general training department, they have the documents of the general training, and the general training will pay the bill according to the mill."

Yang Fan snorted: "I keep saying that it's for the good of Ming Dynasty, but we still use public money to come to such a luxurious place. We don't care about this, but we can't let these bastards poach the corner of the court and write an anonymous letter to the Procuratorate of the Fifth Army .”

The sergeant quickly said yes.

Yang Fan twisted his chubby body, stood up, feeling a little dizzy for a moment.He said: "That's it for today, just keep an eye on it, as long as a big case is found out, it's time for great success." He knew that the tedious listening and memorizing of the squatting spot, in order to encourage the sergeant, he seemed to have no way: "We I still have to go to Mrs. Liu to listen to the teachings, so let’s go first.”

"Respectfully send off the father-in-law." The captain really cheered up and sent Yang Fan out.

Yang Fan became famous all of a sudden by relying on the North Korean spy case. Not only did he not follow Wang Zhixin, he even climbed to Liu Ruoyu's high branch.Now who doesn't know that Liu Ruoyu is the real "inner minister" and the admiral of Dongchang is his godson.

……

When Dongchang was founded, it just imitated the Imperial City Secretary of the Song Dynasty. From the execution officer, the foreman, the foreman, the secretary, and even the subordinates and officers, they were all allocated from Jinyiwei.From this we can also know how close their relationship with Jin Yiwei is.It's just that the admiral of Dongchang is the emperor's private slave, and unlike Jinyiwei and other state officials, he is more trusted by the emperor, so Dongchang is often superior to Jinyiwei.

When Wei Zhongxian became the admiral of the East Factory, Tian Ergeng, the commander of Jinyiwei, was his godson, which more vividly demonstrated the relationship between the two.

Now the crown prince is wise and powerful, and has completely separated Dongchang and Jinyiwei. One is in charge of the outside and the other is in charge of the inside. In terms of personnel relations, they are also in charge of their own affairs.Once the blood supply was stopped, Dongchang instantly realized that he had insufficient talent reserves. Apart from poaching the corners of Jin Yiwei, he had to find people from the market.

Although they all use the same set of procedures and manuals, Xu Dun is obviously more capable than Ding Ao.Dongchang has not been able to form a reliable peripheral organization so far, and Jinyiwei's Golden Scale Association has already begun to clean up and enter the establishment.

Ding Ao was very anxious about this, and Liu Ruoyu was even more anxious.

For this reason, Liu Ruoyu took down his old face on purpose, begged the crown prince for Ding Ao, and got the opportunity to go to Jinyiwei for investigation.Although Jin Yiwei was secretive, it also allowed Dongchang to see the gap between the two.

"Jinyiwei was already deeply entrenched, so it was easy for them to form the Golden Scale Club." After researching, Ding Ao found that the key to Dongchang's inability to balance power with Jinyiwei was the problem of manpower.

"The organization model of the Golden Scale Association is often based on the neighborhood. The leader is called the boss, and they are brothers. These people are often idlers, and they are the most clear about the gossip in the market. There are also various small people collecting information for them. There are three or five articles a day, but when gathered together, it is a huge amount of news.

"These idlers from the Golden Scale Association, because they are familiar with the number of people on the ground, will be assigned to Jinyiwei or Shuntianfu police after passing the test. This is the biggest manpower expansion method for Jinyiwei today. It ensures that everyone who enters the Weiwei All newcomers can do things.”

"On the other hand, there is also an espionage class." Ding Aohui reported: "Xu Dun recruited reliable people of different ages in the early years, gathered a class, found people to teach various techniques, and let them hone in various professions. These people have excellent aptitude, their loyalty is far better than that of the idlers in the market, and their methods are clever, so they are the main force sent by Jin Yiwei to spread their branches everywhere."

Liu Ruoyu closed his eyes and jaws, not knowing whether he was listening or falling asleep.

There was a moment of silence in the flower hall, only to hear Liu Ruoyu say: "Since that's the case, let's just follow suit."

Ding Ao was a little embarrassed, and said: "Father, I'm afraid we don't have the ability."

"Hey, you kid is so stubborn." Liu Ruoyu shook his head and said, "Our family said that we select talents from espionage, but do we say that we run espionage classes by ourselves? You sort out the investigation and research things, and we will justifiably report to the emperor. The prince is begging for help. The espionage team belongs to Daming, not Jin Yiwei's family."

Ding Ao suddenly realized.

This is to grab it!

Not to mention whether Xu Dun is willing or not, can the crown prince agree?

After all, Ding Ao is the heir selected by Liu Ruoyu, and he quickly figured out the key points: the crown prince will definitely agree.

If you enter the espionage class, you will enter Jinyiwei, and this place will be a small hill in the future.If students don't know where they belong before they graduate, they will only belong to one during their school days: Daming.

And Jin Yiwei's dominance is the Tian family's pleasure?Otherwise, why did Chengzu set up the East Factory?

Only by allowing Dongchang and Jinyiwei to share equally and supervise each other can the Tian family get more comprehensive news.In particular, there have been two vicious incidents in Jin Yiwei, and the second time he directly defected and defected. In the end, Jin Yiwei handled it himself, which obviously cannot be dispelled.

——However, it would be even better if Dongchang could also have its own espionage team.

Ding Ao thought to himself.

……

"Your Highness, the first batch of Jinyiwei who arrived in Lisbon has sent back news. Because of the different races, the work is not progressing smoothly. Only three businessmen have been found to become outside traffic officers, and they have promised that they will be able to do business and settle in Daming in the future."

Xu Dun had more time to stay in the capital after the extermination of the Eastern Captives, and made arrangements for Mongolia. At the same time, he did not forget to work in Nanyang and Taixi.

From this point of view, the Military Intelligence Department of the General Staff seems to have a lot of ambition and talent.Although they have the idea of ​​competing with Jin Yiwei, they lack vision and courage.Many things require orders from above, and with Zhu Cihong's position and pressure, it is impossible to take care of every corner.

For example, at the Taixi location, it is neither important nor urgent in Zhu Cihong's itinerary planning.When I think of this kind of thing, I will say it, but I can't think of more situations.But for Daming's espionage work, this matter is important, but not urgent, so it is impossible for Xu Dun to consult the Crown Prince specifically for this, and it is entirely up to him to make work decisions.

What Zhu Cihong needed was someone like Xu Dun. (To be continued..)
