"Especially, our old lady Hua, who she is, second uncle, you know better than me!"
Seeing that this guy understood, He Shen did not forget to remind him.
After the matter was finished, He Shen waved his hand and drove away his second uncle Chang Rong like a fly.
As for whether the second uncle Chang Rong wants to take all the credit, he is one thing on the surface and another behind the scenes, but he is not worried about it. "
The second uncle, Chang Rong, may be very incompetent despite his inferiority, but he is still very talented in pretending to be confused and letting others take the lead. Otherwise, why would Mrs. Hua go first every time...
After the second uncle Chang Rong left in a hurry, a full sneer appeared on He Shen's face.
"…………"
Second uncle, second uncle, why don’t you take seriously the inheritance left by your grandfather and father?
Then, it would be better to simply draw out the firepower and spend all the Hefu's money so that no one can get any advantage.
As for the matter of giving money and flattering the current Emperor Qianlong, it is indeed true and can indeed gain the emperor's favor.
But with his second uncle Chang Rong's greed and incompetence, even if he was given such a good opportunity, would he be able to seize it...
Totally impossible!
No matter who or what happens, everyone's favorability is limited.
Especially the emperor's favorability and deadline are even lower.
If you can't use this honeymoon period of giving money to increase your favorability and do a few big things, by the time the emperor forgets about it, it will be too late...
As for whether Heshen himself can seize this opportunity, he is certainly very sure...
If nothing else, just say that as the soul of the Demon Ancestor, He Shen has a photographic memory. He can never forget any knowledge in books after just one glance.
A few days later, my second uncle Chang Rong came over with excitement...
"..."
"Eldest nephew, this is the five hundred thousand taels of silver notes I got from selling part of my family property without telling my mother. Please click on it to see if the amount is correct~"
Chang Rong's face was red with excitement. After hurriedly entering the secret room, he couldn't wait to take out a thick stack of silver notes from his sleeve.
"…………"
"Stop talking nonsense and bring it to me to count!"
He Shen didn't show the slightest courtesy. He took the stack of banknotes and counted them. After finding that there were no problems, he smiled at his second uncle Chang Rong.
"Okay, the amount of money is correct, we uncle and nephew, let's go to the Hubu Yamen to deliver the money!"
He Shen didn't bother to ask how he got this money. Anyway, it was all the money saved by He Shen. He didn't feel bad after spending it all, so as not to waste it in vain.
"Let's go now. Isn't it... a little early..."
Hearing what He Shen said, the excitement on his second uncle Chang Rong's face faded and he said with some hesitation.
"Eldest nephew, should you find a "special" day and send it to the Ministry of Finance?"
………
"Second uncle, what do you mean?"
He Shen understood instantly and said angrily.
"Second Uncle, you want to take advantage of the fact that the court is really anxious about the lack of money and send money..."
………
The second uncle, Chang Rong, chuckled and remained silent. Apparently, this guy didn't think much about it after he returned.
"Second uncle, second uncle, I don't know what to say about you, you are just thinking about these crooked things."
"What we are going to do is already eye-catching, but we do it so deliberately..."
"What if we accidentally anger our Emperor Qianlong and think that we are taking the opportunity to threaten him?"
Rolling his eyes, He Shen said again angrily.
"Second uncle, you know how to play some clever tricks. Can such a thing be calculated casually? Maybe the advantage will not be gained, and both of us will have to get involved!"
Hearing this, the second uncle Chang Rong's face turned pale, obviously frightened.
I only heard him stammering: "Then... what should we do? It's good... choose the best time..."
The second uncle, Chang Rong, thought about it carefully and realized that what his rebellious nephew said did make sense. In a sensitive period, rushing to give money was indeed too deliberate...
Emperor Qianlong would inevitably doubt their intentions and whether they wanted to play tricks at this critical moment.
If you think about it in his shoes, he wouldn't be happy either.
"…………"
“Whenever the time is right, today is the day.”
"There are some things that cannot be delayed. Now, right away, let's go directly to the Hubu Yamen to deliver the money!"
He Shen was full of wisdom and said with pearls of wisdom in hand.
………
"Okay, let's go!"
Chang Rong is a person who has no opinion on major matters. After hearing what Heshen said, he felt that it made sense and did not continue to argue.
With uneasy thoughts, his second uncle Chang Rong followed He Shen out of the He Mansion.
"..."
The second uncles Chang Rong and He Shen arrived at the Ministry of Finance with their loyal servants.
He Shen is an official of the Ministry of Revenue, so he naturally knows the Ministry of Revenue very well.
"…………"
He Shen led his second uncle Chang Rong, and after walking around the corridor a few times, they arrived at the office of Li Lipao, the Minister of Revenue.
"What, you two are going to give one million taels of silver to the current emperor for his birthday..."
Li Libao, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue, was shocked when he heard this. At this moment, he didn't care about any face issues and said anxiously.
"…………"
"Why, Master Shangshu doesn't believe it?"
Faced with the slightly questioning words of his immediate superior, He Shen neither responded arrogantly nor overly flattered, but spoke calmly.
Chang Rong was not so calm. In front of the dignified first-class officials, he was all smiles. Even when he sat down, he only dared to touch half of his butt, as if he had seen his ancestors.
"…………"
Obviously, Li Baoli looked down upon the performance of his second uncle Chang Rong.
Li Baoli, the Minister of Household Affairs, only had lively chats with his subordinate He Shen.
It is true that the person who owes money is the uncle, but if he takes the initiative to give money, he is also the God of Wealth...
Especially when they sent money to the treasury, one million taels of silver per gift. The second uncle Chang Rong and He Shen split the sky and the earth for the first time.
As the Minister of Household Affairs, Li Libao naturally has a good attitude.
"…………"
After seeing off the two gods of wealth, Li Libao, the Minister of Household Affairs, immediately ran to the palace to see the emperor.
After getting permission from Emperor Qianlong, Li Lipao, the Minister of Household Affairs, hurriedly reported the good news to Emperor Qianlong.
"You mean, the Niu Hulu family branch, the Ershan branch, the uncle and nephew gave me one million taels of silver in the name of wishing me a birthday?"
Emperor Qianlong was also very curious when he heard this. He also knew that the things under his hands were full of urine...
Only these people are trying to get money from the treasury. I have never heard of anyone taking the initiative to send money to the treasury...
