Chapter 381 The Most Skilled Hunter(2/2)
Eunuch Sun who was chatting: "???"
Is Lin Tailai seriously ill? What does this sentence mean when he suddenly comes out of nowhere?
Lin Daguan took the initiative and asked: "I don't know if Sun Gong is summoning me, why do you do it?"
Sun Long then said: "I recently heard rumors in the city that the Weaving Bureau will send an additional 10,000 horses to the machine households, and Lin Shou will be responsible for collecting them."
Lin Daguan replied: "This is just a rumor, only for the wise. Why should Sun Gong care about it?"
Sun Long said with a smile: "I have also heard a saying from others that rumors are far ahead predictions. It seems to make sense."
Eunuch Sun's intention is to suggest that rumors can be turned into facts.
The main task of eunuchs like them who are dispatched on economic missions is to collect money for the palace.
If you can send more property to the palace and make the emperor appreciate you more, why not do it?
Moreover, the position of the Suhang weaving eunuch was rich in money but not very busy, and the position was in a prosperous place in the south of the Yangtze River, far away from the swords and swords in the palace. It could be called a fat position among the eunuchs.
Since it is a fat position, someone will always be keeping an eye on it. If you don't perform well, you may be replaced by another eunuch.
Therefore, although Eunuch Sun feels that the current times are peaceful and peaceful, he still has a sense of crisis.
At this time, Officer Lin seemed confused and surprised, as if he had not expected Eunuch Sun to have such an idea.
He was so frightened that he could only repeat: "Mr. Sun! That's a rumor!"
Sun Long, who prides himself on being a cultured person, doesn't like to directly force others to do things.
Then he went around in circles and said, "You have also made a pilgrimage to the Long Live Lord. What do you think?"
Official Lin bowed respectfully to the north and replied: "Your Majesty is wise and mighty, which is rare throughout the ages. It is indeed the great fortune of the Ming Dynasty to have such a holy king!"
Sun Long knew that he would not hear the truth, so he continued to hint: "Although Long Live Lord is the emperor, after all, he grew up in the human world and has seven emotions and six desires."
The emperor also has material needs, you know?
Lin Daguan immediately responded seriously: "The Emperor has a pure nature, benevolence and uprightness. Under the authority of the gods, he cares for billions of people. He only cares about the legacy of his ancestors, and he should have the appearance of ruling over all directions.
As for the seven emotions and six desires, they are karma obstacles that only ordinary people have, and they are not worthy of the Tao!"
Eunuch Sun: "."
Who rides the horse more like a eunuch? I want to tell you the truth, but you flatter me from thousands of miles away?
I have said that the emperor is also a human being, but you insist on saying that the emperor is a god!
This didn't make sense, so Eunuch Sun changed his direction and asked: "Then you won the top prize in martial arts, which is considered a great favor from the emperor. How can you repay the emperor's favor?"
Lin Daguan said impassionedly: "You should do your best to serve the country with all your loyalty! Only by dedicating yourself to death will you be able to live up to the emperor's kindness!"
Eunuch Sun rubbed his forehead. It was really a headache to encounter such a stubborn elm head.
So Eunuch Sun became irritable and pointed it out directly: "Our family thinks that you have a unique skeleton, and you are a one-of-a-kind recruiting prodigy!
You are not one of those pedantic civil servants who want to open up the situation! If you can pay tribute to the palace, you are repaying the emperor's favor!"
Lin Daguan said plausibly: "In the whole world, is it the land of the king? On the shore of the land, is it the ministers of the king! The whole world belongs to the emperor, so why do we need to deliberately conscript it?"
Eunuch Sun didn't listen to these nonsense and just asked: "Can we send an additional 10,000 horses?"
Official Lin began to complain: "It's not like you don't know the situation in Suzhou City, Mr. Sun. Ten thousand horses doesn't sound like much, but it will definitely cause commotion in the city."
Eunuch Sun really wanted to force Lin Tailai to do something, but he also knew very well that he didn't have the strength.
There is a popular saying in Suzhou City recently: We are not afraid of civil unrest, but we are afraid of Lin Tailai mediating the civil unrest.
So after Sun Long thought for a while, he said in a consultative tone: "Then how many horses do you think should be appropriate?"
Lin Daguan suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed a few times, "Haha", "Master Sun obviously has a way to make a lot of money, but why does he only want to kill the chicken to get the eggs and dry up the lake to fish?"
Sun Long quickly asked: "What? Is there any way to make money?"
Official Lin was not in a hurry, and asked with a smile: "It seems that Mr. Sun really wants to repay the emperor's kindness?"
Looking at Lin Daguan's expression now, and recalling the embarrassing performance of Lin Daguan just now when he was being chased and intercepted and forced to dodge left and right, Eunuch Sun suddenly remembered a sentence.
The best hunters often appear as prey.
