Ming Dynasty fake eunuch

Chapter 41
You must know that although Ye Xun has been pulling the tiger's skin to pull the banner, after all, he has not been formally appointed by the court, and he cannot justifiably ask for military salary. Therefore, if Ye Xun wants to vigorously develop his military power, money and food are all hurdles that cannot be avoided. .

Under normal circumstances, if someone offered to donate money and food, he would definitely welcome him with his hands up, and he didn't mind giving him an honorary title, but if this person had ulterior motives, it would be a different matter.

For example, this Wang Dengku, others don't know, as a time traveler, how could Ye Xun not know about Wang Dengku, Wang Dahan, one of the eight imperial merchants of the Manchu Qing Dynasty?
Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Ming Dynasty has always pursued differentiation, suppression, and blockade in its policies towards border minorities, and has not given any respite to foreigners.

With the decline of the dynasty, the generals at all levels of the border guards have begun to violate this national policy, but it has to be said that this national policy has indeed had a great impact on the development of Mongolia, Jurchen and other ethnic groups.

The natural conditions in the north are harsh. If all the generals at the border of the Ming Dynasty could abide by the imperial government's decrees and strictly control the food, iron, salt and other daily necessities that the Jurchens are in short supply, the Jurchen will be nothing more than a strong ant after all, and they will not be able to shake the Ming Dynasty. big tree.

The generals were afraid of the laws of the country, and although they also smuggled, they were all petty troubles after all, but those profiteers didn't have so many scruples. For their own selfishness, they don't have to care about national interests or national justice.

It can be said that if it were not for the continuous supply of profiteers such as Wang Dengku, the Jurchen clan would not have developed so fast at all.

Ye Xun, as a time traveler, is of course well aware of the harm, and he hasn't spared his hands yet. As long as he gains a foothold in Liaodong, these profiteers will be the first to be dealt with.

It's just that Ye Xunwan didn't expect that Wang Dengku would take the initiative to find him, saying that he would use money and grain to change his official position, what a fool?This guy must have been sent by Nurhachi.

Ye Xun didn't say this to Han Ping, but asked him to tell Wang Dengku to stay first, and to meet him when he had time.

After sending Han Ping away, Ye Xun didn't go back to the back house immediately, but sat on a chair and became dazed.

As an ambitious traveler, Ye Xun's eyes are certainly not limited to Liaodong. With his status, he doesn't want to seek to usurp the throne, but he must be a person with power over the world!
Ye Xun is very clear that in this era, if he wants to be a master, he must be the first in strength, and at the same time have a pervasive intelligence network.

The so-called knowing yourself and the enemy, never slacking in a hundred battles, although the ancients also paid attention to intelligence, it is obviously far from enough.

Wang Dengku's sudden visit can be said to have awakened Ye Xun and inspired him a lot.

Nurhachi can insert spies into the interior of Daming, so why can't he also insert a nail in Jurchen's side?
"Liang Zhen!"

Following Ye Xun's shout, Liang Zhen walked in quickly.

"A Shanxi guest surnamed Wang came from Han Ping. You send someone to keep an eye on him, and check who is around him and who he has been in contact with after entering the city. Don't let Han Ping know."

After listening to Ye Xun's order, Liang Zhen saluted and said, "Don't worry, father-in-law, this subordinate will do it now."

It gets dark early in the north. Although Tieling is a military town, the Jurchen army has already retreated, so a curfew has not been enforced. Although there are occasional soldiers patrolling the streets, people are not prohibited from passing by.

At the beginning of the night, some wine shops, brothels and other places became lively.

Han Ping is in a good mood today. One is that his department has finally gained the attention of Eunuch Ye. As long as he makes some achievements, based on his understanding of Eunuch Ye, he will definitely not treat him badly. It is not impossible to be promoted to a higher level. of.

In addition, as far as he knows, Wang Dengku is a very important person in Shanxi. Although there was a relationship before, the two are obviously not on the same level. Come to him, and still ask him.

The ninth grade is also an official!

Han Ping couldn't help thinking happily, when he came out from Ye Xun's place, he was told by Wang Dengku's subordinates that Wang Yuanwai had ordered a banquet to entertain him, so he came home in a hurry after changing his clothes.

Conditions in the north are limited, and there are no high-end wine shops there. To show his sincerity, Wang Dengku ordered the best wine shop in the city.

In the single room, Wang Dengku sat cross-legged on the kang, carefully calculating the possibility of success in this mission.

Wang Dengku was in his thirties, and he was in the prime of his life. After he took over the business of the Wang family, it was indeed getting bigger and bigger, but there is no end to desire. North Korea seeks an official position.

In fact, the Wang family not only does the Jurchen business, but also has their business in Jiangnan, and through the business, many Ming Dynasty generals have turned to the Jurchen.

It was for this reason that Wang Dengku accepted the task very quickly. No one had any grudges against Yinzi, let alone a eunuch who lacked parts. Huang Taiji hadn’t done it before, so he could only say that his method was wrong. To know what this person likes, you have to start with the people around this person.

In addition, Wang Dengku has another task here, which is to find out what Ye Xun used that day, which can make tens of thousands of troops fall into the trap at the same time. pieces.

With Wang Dengku's energy, it was too easy to find someone to speak for him in Tieling, and Han Ping was the manager of the weapons workshop, so of course he became his first choice.

Before Han Ping arrived, Wang Dengku was meditating when the door curtain was raised, and a middle-aged man in his forties, slightly fat and with a mustache bent over and walked in.

"Boss, according to your instructions, the villain has found out. On the day the army attacked the city, Li Ruzhen's house was ransacked by a group of mysterious people. After Li Ruzhen came back, he was also beaten to death by the people inexplicably. Now the Li family can be said to be completely destroyed. run down"

The middle-aged man's name is Hu Jiucheng, he is Wang Dengku's most capable subordinate, and he has followed him for more than ten years.

After hearing Hu Jiucheng's words, Wang Dengku said noncommittally, "Do you think that eunuch did this?"

"Based on the style of this little eunuch, there are nine out of ten that he did it, but this matter needs evidence, otherwise I'm afraid the little eunuch will not bow his head."

Having followed his master for many years, Hu Jiucheng certainly knows what his master thinks. If he wants to completely obey his orders, of course he can't just buy him off. He must have some clues about the other party.

Wang Dengku nodded and said: "Don't follow me these few days, hurry up and investigate this matter, spend more money, and attack the guards around him."

"The villain understands, let's do it"

After Hu Jiucheng agreed, he turned and walked out. It happened that Han Ping also arrived at this time.

Hu Jiucheng didn't meet Han Ping face to face, he lowered his fur cap when he went out, and walked out with his head bowed.

When Hu Jiucheng passed by Han Ping, Han Ping was slightly stunned for a moment. When he turned his head to look at Hu Jiucheng again, he saw that Hu Jiucheng had disappeared into the night.

"This person looks very familiar!"

Han Ping couldn't help showing a thoughtful expression
