Yanyun County also paid tribute to the court so much money every year, providing so many war horses, cattle and sheep, food, money... Even I made a fortune through his light!
For a courtier to achieve this level, is it considered the ultimate, right?
Looking at all the civil and military officials in the dynasty, including the two princes, and the donkeys in the tofu shop, who can compare with him for their hard work?
But maybe it was because of his great ability that the emperor never trusted him. The princes and ministers were all jealous of him, so much so that they wanted to kill him several times...
It was indeed unfair to him.
This is why Xiao Chen can keep his composure. If it were another person, he might have rebelled long ago!
To be honest, rebelling now is fun enough.
So in fact, the person who knew Xiao Chen best in the Great Zhou Dynasty was Gong Shouli. Perhaps it was because the two were mortal enemies that he could see so clearly and objectively.
That's why he would occasionally complain to Xiao Chen and say something from his heart.
And he would only say this to Xiao Chen.
"Since you have no official business, let's not talk about this. By the way, how is the business of the candy factory?" Xiao Chen changed the subject.
"Business is very good. Not only did I, Lao Gong, make a fortune, but those who bought white shares also made a lot of money. Haha, you had the foresight to set up a joint-stock system and roped in all the big guys. If I were the only one, I'm afraid it would have been snatched away by others!" Gong Shouli said.
"Who the hell dares to care about your old Gong's property? Your Majesty?" Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"The emperor won't, but his son may not, haha, but they can only be jealous, but they don't dare to take action." Gong Shouli sneered.
Because the major shareholders of this factory are Gong Shouli, Zhu Xiaochuan, Wu Zicheng, Wang Anbang, Lu Jing, Ma Wuming... No one except the emperor dares to touch it!
"I think the shares in your hand should be divided up. You have too much." Xiao Chen said, "You said that a dead eunuch with no children has no use in keeping so much money. ? You’re almost content.”
"I think so too... By the way, is Ling'er here?" Gong Shouli grinned when he talked about Ling'er, "I still have to apologize to her, her shares and Mrs. Chen Jisheng's shares have been frozen , I can’t withdraw the bonus money, it was all returned to the household department by Chen Wenqi, and I dare not say anything.”
"Forget it, what's the point of apologizing? Ling'er doesn't care about these three melons and two dates." Xiao Chen comforted Gong Shouli in turn.
"That's why I feel sorry for her. This factory belongs to Ling'er. Without her, how could we make a lot of money? Now it's all taken away by others..." Gong Shouli shook his head and sighed, feeling helpless.
Say Linger, Linger is here.
She and Gong Shouli were good friends. When they heard that he was coming, they came over to visit. Gong Shouli was happy to see her and rushed up to hug her warmly. They were so intimate that it was like meeting his own sister. Xiao Chen was so excited when he saw her. A little jealous.
"Eunuch Gong, what are you doing here at this time?" Ling'er was still worried for him, "Brother won't do anything to you, but the old man and the others may not do anything to you!"
"If you have Ling'er, please collect the body for me. I'm not afraid of death. If I am, I won't come!" Gong Shouli is really not afraid of death.
After all, this guy is a man.
"But there's something I really can't do to you, brother..." Gong Shouli was not afraid of death, but he was afraid that Ling'er would be angry with him.
"You're talking about the candy factory, right?" Ling'er said, "What does this have to do with you? It's not like you cheated me. Besides, I've made a lot of money and I've long returned to my roots!"
"Well, I know you are a good and sensible boy, Ling'er." Gong Shouli said, "Since your eldest brother Xiao Chen won't kill me, then Chen Jisheng certainly won't either. Haha, that old man of his has never been able to kill me. You didn't take me seriously... but accidents may still happen. If I have something good or bad to say to you, I will talk to you privately later."
This should be another explanation of the funeral arrangements, so I didn't plan to say it in front of Xiao Chen.
"What's wrong with you in Yanyun County?" Xiao Chen said, "I already told you that I won't kill you!"
"However, there are some risks in my surgery, right?" Gong Shouli was worried about this.
"When did I agree to help you arrange the surgery?" Xiao Chen said Wangniao.
"You bastard, I will fight with you today!" Gong Shouli stood up from the table and rushed towards Xiao Chen regardless of his own safety.
I risked my life to come here to extend my life... Genzi, you promised well before, but now you suddenly changed your mind and refused to help, is it ridiculous?
"Oh, why are you so anxious again?" Ling'er hurriedly hugged him, "Brother is joking with you. There's no way he won't help. It doesn't matter if he doesn't help. I'll take you to find Brother Fat. Brother Fat is willing to help. That’s it…”
"Drink some cat urine and you will go crazy." Xiao Chen said with a smile, "I really forgot to promise you, but you are here, how can I not help you? There is no way I have to help you if you don't come You, you’re here but I’m not willing to help you... don’t leave, it’s not too expensive to have two more drinks before you get under the table!”
In fact, Gong Shouli was superfluous. There was no need to go to Xiao Chen for this matter. He went directly to Ling'er and it was done for him. However, he always thought that Ling'er was a girl and could not always say such things in front of her.
However, Ling'er had no inhibitions and dragged him out directly to find Fatty. Fatty brother, please help him. Don't make fun of him. My brother just made him anxious...
"Just help him." Qianye Ling didn't have any bad feelings towards Gong Shouli. On the contrary, he had a good impression of Gong Shouli. By the way, how many good things did he eat with Ling'er's help?
In addition, she also felt that Gong Shouli was actually quite pitiful.
So when you look at a person from different angles, you will always find something different.
"It's okay to do the surgery for Eunuch Gong, but there are risks, you know, right?" The fat man said the ugly things first.
"As long as you, Dean, are willing to take action and die without complaint, if you are worried, I can sign the life and death documents!" Gong Shouli answered simply and neatly.
"Well, the risk is actually very small, but the cost is quite high..." The fat man must take this opportunity to rip off Gong Shouli severely.
"I know this. It's inconvenient to carry cash. Can I just use banknotes?" Gong Shouli had already prepared it. He took out one and handed it to the fat man. "This is considered a deposit. It will be calculated separately after the operation is successful. "
"One hundred thousand taels..." The fat man glanced at the amount on the banknote, and he was immediately ecstatic, and his brows were filled with joy, but then he became reserved again, "If it's one hundred thousand taels..."
"I know this is not enough, so I have prepared two hundred thousand taels. If it is still not enough, I will send someone home to get it later." Gong Shouli really risked his life in order to continue his life and the incense of his old Gong family. !
As an iron rooster, he really spent a lot of money on this!
In fact, he still had reservations about what he said, because as long as the operation could be successful, he would not hesitate to give up all his property!
