Chapter 6: Willing to be a Guard Dog

The woman in pink left the shop, but Yuan Dahai did not stop her. Qian En and Guo Kegang wanted to stop each other, but he waved her hand to stop her. It was not until the carriage left her sight that he turned around and sat down at the Eight Immortals table. Seeing this, Zhang Dexi and the others had to sit down.

Seeing that there was no good show, the guests were a little disappointed, but the anime was still there, and no one dared to move. They just hoped that the anime would finish eating and leaving quickly, but the shopkeeper was thinking how much money they would have to lose later to send these plague gods away.

The food and food were pretty good. Because he was thinking about the origin of the woman in pink, Yuan Dahai didn't eat much, but Zhang Dexi and Guo Kegang were really eating. Half an hour later, the table was in a mess.

"Shopkeeper, check out!"

Seeing that everyone was full, Yuan Dahai stood up and threw a silver ingot on the table. Then, his subordinates came out of the shop with the smell of wine, and did not make things difficult for the shopkeeper. Until they left, the shopkeeper still looked at the silver ingot in disbelief. Everyone was surprised by the diners, and they all said they were terrified...

When they entered the city, it was still in the hour of Xu. Because the horse was forced to borrow from the carriage and horse Xing in the east of the city, everyone went to pay back the horse first, and then they deposited 3,000 taels of silver into the money house for silver notes before they dispersed. Zhao Kegang, Zhang Dexi and Li Qing had families in the capital, so they all returned to their homes. Qian En and Yuan Dahai were neighbors opposite the door. The two lived in the north courtyard of the East Factory wall, and there was a row of houses, all living in the East Factory and the clerks and officials who worked as servants in the East Factory. The stall owners had residences in the factory, but they could not live with them.

There was nothing to say that night, and at dawn the next day, Yuan Dahai got up early, carrying the 3,000 taels of silver notes, and went to the Dongchang factory's filing, Jin Liangfu, a hundred household.

Jin Liangfu was an eunuch. He was originally the eunuch in charge of the Miantang Department of the Palace. In the third year of Tianqi, Wei Zhongxian arranged for him to go to the East Factory to serve as a 100-household prisoner. However, although he came from the Palace, Jin Liangfu's power in the East Factory was not as good as the four major heads. However, because most of the four major heads were nominated and most of the time they were in the Palace, they rarely came to the East Factory, so most of the mundane affairs of the East Factory were handled by Jin Liangfu on weekdays. Therefore, Jin Liangfu was the actual manager of the East Factory. If Yuan Dahai wanted to buy a house for a job, he did not need to find the four major heads. Just look for Jin Liangfu. Besides, those four major heads were not something he could see in a small cavalry.

It is better to be in charge of the county magistrate. With three thousand taels of silver notes in hand, Yuan Dahai was in great pleasure when he walked on the road. He thought about how to salute after meeting Jin Liangfu, how to speak, and how to further his career after becoming a corps...

Along the way, I ran into many Dongchang's characters, and several officials and staff, but these people turned a blind eye to Yuan Dahai with a smile on his face, and no one came to ask where Yuan Dahai had gone yesterday, as if Yuan Dahai did not exist in Dongchang at all.

Yuan Dahai didn't care about these people's contempt and selective forgetting, and was happy with this. However, others did not like him, but he could not be rude and greeted everyone. When he saw the squad, he stopped from a distance, bowed his head and stood on the side of the road, and waited for the squad to leave before he dared to look up and continue walking.

Details, Yuan Dahai pays great attention to details. In his opinion, although a good etiquette or even an overly humble attitude hurts his self-esteem, it will help his future, at least he will not be disgusted by others. This is enough. It is not a big deal for people to blame him. If he has something to do in the future, no one will intentionally do it against him.

Jin Liangfu's residence is behind the office of the Dongchang Head Office. There are many yards there for eunuchs and stallholders in the factory. The largest one is naturally for eunuchs in the palace. However, because Wei Zhongxian lived in the palace most of the time and lived in his private house for the rest of the time, he did not live in the Dongchang, so the courtyard was naturally uninhabited. Yuan Dahai once brought his Maoke people to the yard to clean it, and found that the decorations inside were extremely ordinary, similar to ordinary families, and were not as luxurious and exquisite as imagined. After asking others, he found that since the opening of the Dongchang, the yard has basically remained the same. For two hundred years, the factory managers have never changed it, and few people even live there.

When passing by the main hall of Dongchang Yamen, Yuan Dahai stopped for a while, because every time he passed there, he always glanced at the "Fragrant Feasts" monument erected outside the lobby. And every time he saw the four big characters "Fragrant Feasts" in his heart, he always felt strange. When he thought of the portrait of Yue Fei hanging in the lobby of Dongchang, the strange and strange feeling became even stronger.

After handing over five taels of silver, a monk led Yuan Dahai to Jin Liangfu's yard. It was still early and it was not until midnight, so Jin Liangfu had not yet entered the court.

When I arrived in front of Jin Liangfu Hospital, Yuan Dahai asked him to wait. When he went in, he heard a sharp voice inside: "Yuan Dahai of Mao? Let him come in."

"A subordinate Yuan Dahai has met his father-in-law!"

As soon as he entered the yard, Yuan Dahai shouted softly, and then stopped moving forward, looking very respectful.

A voice came from inside the house, "Come in."

After getting permission, Yuan Dahai walked into the house carefully. The light in the house was not very bright. He could vaguely see a man sitting in front of a dressing table and sporting his hair bun.

People in Ming Dynasty all had buns. Whether they were ordinary people or scholars, they paid great attention to trimming their buns on weekdays, so Yuan Dahai was not strange, and the scene in front of him was not as weird and discomfort as "Dongfang Bubai looked in the mirror".

"Is there anything you have to do with our family?"

After tidying up his hair bun, Jin Liangfu nodded with satisfaction. Then he slowly turned his head to look at Yuan Dahai. His appearance was not ugly, but on the contrary, he was a bit handsome. He looked about thirty years old and his skin was very white and tender. If he hadn't known the other party's identity, Yuan Dahai would have thought that the actor sitting in front of him was an actor.

"Reply to my father-in-law, I want to find a job as a department in the father-in-law."

Yuan Dahai is honestly speaking, although he has never dealt with Jin Liangfu, he has heard too much about Jin Liangfu's character. He knows that this person likes to go straight and talk to others but not to circle around. The more direct he is, the better. If he is not straightforward enough, he will be angry. This is completely different from the insidious eunuch depicted in later movies. In fact, eunuchs are also human beings. Of course, they are real, not fictitious images of artistic processing.

When he heard that Yuan Dahai was going to buy an official position, Jin Liangfu immediately smiled brightly, stood up and chuckled, "I said yesterday, why did the birds chirp in the morning and scream yesterday? It turns out that there is really a happy event."

Hum? Yuan Dahai subconsciously glanced outside the house, but found that there was no tree outside. He couldn't help but wonder where he heard the cry of the bird.

The movements in his hands were not slow, and he had already touched the three thousand taels of silver notes, held them in his hand and handed them respectfully.

"You know how to be a human being."

Jin Liangfu reached out to take the stack of silver notes, and put it on the dressing table behind him without counting it. Then he said, "It's not too much to buy a 3,000 taels of meter." After walking back and forth, he felt a little embarrassed: "It's not difficult to be a meter. The difficult thing is to follow the rules. If you are a meter, you have to have corresponding tasks. However, now all the meter tasks in the factory have been arranged almost completely. There is really nothing to be missing. This matter is a bit difficult... But if you can find our family, then our family will naturally not be able to deal with you, but we can make arrangements for a while, but our family is really clueless. Oh, it's difficult..." After saying that, a bit tricky expression appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Yuan Dahai hurriedly took out a silver note of 200 taels from his arms, stepped forward and placed it on the dressing table, and smiled apologized: "I know this is difficult. I have to ask my father-in-law to worry about it. Be careful, please accept it with a smile!"

"Haha, our family just likes to deal with smart people like you."

Jin Liangfu didn't look at the amount of the silver bill. He looked at Yuan Dahai with a smile on his face and nodded, "Looking at you so tactful, our family will do this for you. Well, let our family think about how to arrange a ministry for you..."

Generally speaking, the foreman is in charge of the head office, which is the scope of his work. For example, some are in charge of the imperial officials, some are in charge of the criminal trial of Jinyiwei, some are in charge of the investigation of officials from various provinces, and some are in charge of border military information. In short, the foreman of the head office is not as ordinary as a foreign service. In the East Factory, he is the head of a department, and the scope of his work is determined by the degree of favor being favored by the person above. If someone is close to the position, he can be divided into a heavy duty. If there is no one above, it is probably a Qingshui duty.

Yuan Dahai didn't expect Jin Liangfu to give him a fat man, so he just hoped to give him the capital to investigate the affairs, so that he could collect and organize the black materials of Donglin officials. He just waited for the opportunity to see Wei Zhongxian and gave him a "straight report" and broke into the core of the eunuch party in one fell swoop.

Looking forward to watching Jin Liangfu frown and think, but Jin Liangfu was reluctant to speak, Yuan Dahai couldn't help but raise his heart, and he wanted to take out a silver note from his arms to try to solve the problem at once. He couldn't bear to leave the child and couldn't hold on to the wolf. As long as it could be solved by money, he would not feel sorry for him. If money goes away, people will be happy.

As soon as his fingers moved, Jin Liangfu's eyes suddenly lit up. He thought about how to arrange the Yuan Dahai who spent 3,000 taels of silver. He smiled and walked to Yuan Dahai, reached out to pat his shoulder, and said, "Well, our family thought of a good place. This is a good job. You can do it well, and there will be a bright future in the future."

Oh? OK!

When Yuan Dahai heard this, he was also very happy. Since Jin Liangfu said it was a good job, it must be a good job! He was excited and asked what it was. He heard Jin Liangfu say in his ear: "Eunuch Wei just moved into a new mansion, right next to our East Factory. A few days ago, he told our family that we would arrange some people to serve at the father-in-law's mansion. Well, let's see, you can do this errand."

What?!

Yuan Dahai was stunned for a moment. Isn’t this just to see the door for Wei Zhongxian? Is this a good job?

Seeing Yuan Dahai stunned, Jin Liangfu frowned slightly and said unhappily: "What, don't you want to?"

"Ah?...No, no!"

Just look at the gate. You are always much closer to Wei Zhongxian. Things have to be better. Yuan Dahai dared not offend Jin Liangfu, so he hurriedly wrote: "Thank you, my father-in-law, for your mercy. I must be optimistic about the gate for the factory and be a gatekeeper who is loyal to you!"

"Gatekeeper?!"

Jin Liangfu was stunned for a moment, then laughed, nodded gently, and praised: "Ruzi is teaching, our family is a little happy now... You have to do it with your heart when you arrive at Eunuch Wei's mansion. It's not your turn to do this job. Our family is in a good mood today, but it is specially rewarded to you. Don't mess up the job. If your father-in-law blames you, our family will not be able to protect you!"
