In this room of the Jinan Palace, apart from the imperial guards and palace maids and eunuchs who serve as the background wall, the only ones left are Qian Deafangou, Niu Gulu Heshen, Zhangjia Agui, Fucha Ming

Xinghe Ji Xiaolan, the iron-egg and copper-rooster who controls the five women of Japan.

Among the combination of four masters and one dog, the one with the lowest IQ and EQ should be Fucha Mingxing, the one who is better than Mingxing should be Ji Gou, the stronger one should be Agui, and the strongest one should be

It's He Shen and Qian Deaf Old Dog.

Therefore, when hearing Qian Ting Lao Gou say that A Gui's death a thousand times or ten thousand times would not be enough to clear away his sins, He Zhongtang suggested that A Gui should be punished and meritorious services be made.

As expected, after listening to He Shen's proposal, Qian Deaf Old Dog snorted coldly and said, "If He Shen hadn't interceded for you, I would have had to chop off your head!"

Agui was overjoyed. He flicked his horse sleeves with both hands, knelt down in the posture of a dog and a horse, and bowed, "I thank you, Lord Long Live, for your grace!"

Qian Deafangou still hummed in a nonchalant manner and ordered: "Get up and tell me about Zhu Ni again."

Aguimin responded, first kowtowing respectfully to Qian Deafangou and thanking him, then stood up, thought about it and replied: "After my defeat, I also deeply reflected on my mistakes, and combined with the bright future

The lesson learned from the previous defeats of Xing and others finally allowed me to learn something."

Agui organized the words carefully: "In my opinion, the only thing Zhu Ni relies on is his weapon. If it is far away, then Zhu Ni will use the far weapon to explode. If it is close, then Zhu Ni will blow it up."

Using a nearby firearm to explode, in short, relies on the power of the firearm to explode people's hearts, and then kill them while hiding the crowd."

"Whether it was the defeat of Mingxing before, or the death of my husband-in-law and Asiha for the country, or the defeat of my slaves this time, it is all the same."

"According to the firearms battalion officers who escaped from Efu's men, Zhu Ni seems to have a kind of flintlock gun in his hand. It has an extremely long range and extremely accurate accuracy. It can hit almost anywhere within two to three hundred steps."

"I think it's better to let the Ministry of Industry rush to make a batch of artillery and muskets, and let me, the Eight Banners, practice it in a nine-into-ten chain formation. Now, maybe we can defeat Zhu Ni's firearms?"

Qian Deaf Old Dog hummed again, and began to ponder Agui's proposal in his heart.

It’s not that Qian Deaf Laogou doesn’t know the benefits of firearms, he also knows how far Western firearms have developed at this time. It is not difficult for us, the Taqing, to have the Ministry of Industry manufacture firearms in large quantities.

However, firearms, especially firecrackers, can control their power to the point where they can hit a chicken. If they were to be like Zhu Xiaosong’s front-loaded rifled Miniature flintlock gun, Qian Deaf Old Dog would not be willing to do so.

Already.

After all, you can still hit anywhere within a distance of two to three hundred steps, just in case there is a lunatic aiming at the emperor with this thing...

Besides, making things like firecrackers and artillery is quite troublesome. It seems a bit unrealistic to want to change the uniforms of all the Eight Banners soldiers in a short while?

After some calculations in his mind, Qian Deaf Old Gou was about to throw the question to He Shen, but a spy from the stick stick hurried out of the door of the hall. When he came to Qian Deaf Old Gou, he knelt down first and then,

Then he kowtowed and said: "Long live Lord, we have urgent reports from six hundred miles away from Gansu. Returning to Zhehe Renye, Tian Wu, the remnant, raised an army in Shifeng Fort and rebelled. The Yingtu Fort was captured by the rebels, and Gansu was shocked!"

Qian deaf old dog's face darkened, and his body that was still leaning on the couch straightened up, and asked: "Zhe Heren, what are you doing? How on earth did the local government in Gansu do this?"

He Shen bowed and said: "Long live Lord, please calm down. Gansu has been causing trouble more than once or twice. I thought it was just a matter of sending people to suppress it. Why would Long live Lord get angry just for a mere one time?"

Qian deaf old dog snorted coldly and scolded: "There are Zhu Ni, Chen Tailai and Bai Bagua in Shandong, there is the White Lotus Sect in Hubei, and now there is Tian Wu in Gansu, but I don't know where to go next?"

He Shen did not dare to answer, but the iron-toothed Ji Xiaolan sipped two pots of dry smoke and said: "Long live the Lord, I believe that whether it is Zhu Ni's rebellion, the White Lotus Rebellion, or the Gansu Tianwu Rebellion, the root cause is

, or it is caused by local officials oppressing the people too much."

"Especially Li Shiyao, the governor of Gansu, has always been extremely greedy. If he hadn't been searching for land in Gansu, why would the people of Gansu have rebelled?"

"I ask Long Live Lord to send out inspection censors to investigate the world's lawless officials and give the people a bright and clear sky!"

When Ji Xiaolan first said that the local government oppressed the people too much, the deaf old dog Qian could still hear it, thinking that if he could send people to kill a few local officials, how much would it quell the public anger?

But when Ji Xiaolan talked about Li Shiyao, Qian Long was so angry that he simply stopped pretending to be a family of treacherous monarchs and ministers, pointed directly at Ji Xiaolan and cursed: "I think you are good at literature, so I made you

The purpose of receiving the Siku book is to promote the best and store it, so how can you talk about state affairs in such a reckless manner!"

Ji Xiaolan was stunned by the scolding at that time.

The last time he was scolded by Qian Deaf Old Gou to get out because of Mingxing's affairs, Ji Xiaolan thought that Qian Deaf Old Gou was just angry for a moment, and thought that after Qian Deaf Old Gou's anger subsided, she would still be Qian Deaf Old Gou's confidant.

He is still our capable minister and official of the Qing Dynasty.

Especially in Bailong Temple, Ji Xiaolan thought that Qian Deaf Old Dog was very interested in her.

Now that Qian Deaf Old Gou was pointing at his nose and scolding him angrily, Ji Xiaolan finally understood that she was just a literary word slave kept by Qian Deaf Old Gou, and he was just a dog that Qian Deaf Old Gou kept for fun.

There was a clang, but the dry tobacco pot in Ji Xiaolan's hand fell to the ground out of distraction. Ji Xiaolan also came back to her senses because of the clang, hurriedly flicked her horseshoe sleeves with both hands, knelt down in the posture of a dog and a horse, and kowtowed:

"My lord, I have behaved improperly before you, and my crime deserves to be punished by death!"

Qian deaf old dog snorted angrily and ignored Ji Xiaolan, but He Shen bowed and said: "Long live Lord, please calm down. Ji Xiaolan is also worried about state affairs. This is a disgrace in front of the king. How can I hope Lord Long live to show mercy?"

Qian Deafangou snorted coldly, pointed at Ji Xiaolan and cursed: "Prefectures and counties are the parents of the people, how can anyone beat their parents with their children? For example, although ancestors love their grandchildren, they will not let them rely on their kindness to rebel against their parents. This is so cunning.

The wind can't be broken for long! Get out!"

Ji Xiaolan kowtowed again and responded: "嗻!"

After Ji Xiaolan exited, He Shen bowed and smiled again, and said to Qian Deafangou: "Long live Lord, that Ji Da Yandian is just a nerd who has lost his mind in reading. Long live Lord, please don't pay attention to him."

Zhangjia Agui and Fucha Mingxing were both shocked.

Everyone in the Qing Dynasty knows that Ji Xiaolan and Ji Gou have never known good and bad, and often find some bullshit reasons to impeach He Zhongtang. However, this Ji Gou has already angered Lord Long Live, but He Zhongtang is still willing to intercede for Ji Gou.

?

Thinking back to the Li Shiyao case a few years ago, He Zhongtang resisted the pressure of others to kill Li Shiyao and only sentenced him to a sentence of beheading. Agui and Mingxing looked at He Shen differently.

Already.

It seems that it would not be a bad idea to take refuge under He Zhongtang?

As everyone knows, He Shen and Zhongtang, who are all smiling at this time, secretly hate Ji Xiaolan for seeking death, and are secretly thinking about who they should find to impeach them in the future - just in case Ji Gou, the unlucky guy, doesn't impeach him in the future.

It’s not like that if there is only one Liu Guozi left.

No, I still have to find a few more people who can impeach me, and I have to find a few more people who don't like me to support me. Otherwise, if all the voices in my Tatar court are praising me, then won't I die?

Of course, Qian Deafangou wouldn't care about the life and death of Ji Xiaolan, let alone the little thoughts of He Shen and Zhongtang. He just snorted coldly and said to He Zhongtang: "There are many rebellions at the moment, and the Ministry of Industry will rush to control them."

There are also many firearms but they are not enough, Heshen, do you have any good ideas?"

He Shen bowed and said with a flattering smile: "In reply to the long live master, I do have some immature ideas?"

Qian Deafangou laughed loudly and said, "Why, do you and Er still want to have sex with me?"

He Shen flattered and said with a smile: "Oh, Long Live Lord, what are you talking about? Long Live Lord is wise and powerful, and the candle shines thousands of miles away. I have always been loyal to you, how dare I betray you in front of you?"

"What I'm thinking is that since the Ministry of Industry can't make it in time, and the Western Yi are always good at firearms, I think it's okay to send someone to contact the Western Yi and buy ready-made firearms directly from the Western Yi?"

Qian Deafangou snorted and said: "If this is your only idea, then I still need you to speak? Don't you know that the treasury is also quite nervous?"

He Shen bowed and said: "Long live Lord, please calm down. I also know that there is tension in the treasury. Especially after Chen Tailai raised an army, the old silver in Jiangnan was not easy to escort to the treasury, and the tension in the treasury became even more tense."

"However, since I dare to propose this method, it is because I am certain that I can raise enough money."

Qian Deafangou snorted and asked: "What method?"

He Shen continued to smile flatteringly and replied: "My servant has received many rewards from Lord Long Live in the past few years. I have always planned to pass them on to Fengshen Yin De as a family heirloom. Now that the national treasury is tight and there is an urgent need for firearms, I want to give Long Live to you."

I used all the money I gave to my slaves to buy firearms."

"I believe that as long as I am willing to take the lead, officials from other places will definitely follow suit. Isn't this silver matter settled?"

Having said this, He Shen turned to look at Agui and Mingxing and asked, "I wonder what the imperial envoy and the governor think?"

Aguidang even bowed and said: "Back to Lord Long Live, I have received a lot of rewards over the years, and like He Zhongtang, I plan to keep them as family heirlooms. Now that the national treasury is tight, I am also willing to follow He Zhongtang and put these

Use the money to buy firearms."

Mingxing also bowed and said: "The same goes for me, slave."

Qian Deafangou's expression softened a little, and he said to He Shen: "That's all, I'll leave this matter to you, make sure to do it safely."

He Shen Dang even bowed in agreement, and then took A Gui and Ming Xing to bid farewell to Qian Deaf Old Dog.

After leaving the palace where Qian Deaf Old Dog was, He Shen looked at Agui and Mingxing with a smile and asked: "Shen and I took the lead in donating, and then forced you two to follow suit. In your hearts, will you

Don’t you have any ideas?”

Agui and Mingxing looked at each other and bowed together: "Master Zhongtang is loyal to the country, how can we have any ideas?"

But He Shen laughed loudly and said: "It doesn't matter whether you two have it or not. Anyway, I am giving you an opportunity to make a fortune. It's up to you whether you can seize it or not."

Mingxing was stunned and asked: "Can you please give me some advice?"

He Shen chuckled and said: "Go and contact the missionaries in Jinan City and see if anyone has a way to buy firearms - it's just to suppress bandits, just buy some similar firearms, it's not worth giving up.

Make a big show of war in the imperial court."

Don’t think that Master Tang is the only one who can play this trick of repaying the squire’s money in full. In fact, the way he played this trick with Zhongtang was enough to make Master Tang gasp in amazement——

His own money was repaid in full, and the other officials' money was split 30/70 with Qian Deaf, 30% went to himself and Qian Deaf, and the remaining 70% was used to buy firearms. When buying firearms, he could get another rebate.

The accounts are divided between 37 and 70, and the buyer eats the seller after eating. With everything going on inside and outside, won’t the money be obtained?
