Peng Jin was very enthusiastic when he met this young man from Prince Xin's Mansion earlier. The Ministry of Rites is a Qingshui Yamen, and it is normal to support young people. It is also said that Jiang Wan is from Prince Xin's Mansion and has nothing to do with him.
There is no conflict of interest.
However, knowing that this man was colluding with Wei Zhongxian, Peng Jin suddenly felt that this man's face had become ugly.
A dignified professor from the Royal Palace, with His Royal Highness Prince Xin behind him, actually wants to hang out with Wei Zhongxian. Such a young man is simply willing to degenerate.
Wei Zhongxian is greedy for money and power. Everyone in the government and the public does not know that this time the artillery deal was made by the Ministry of War, who was begging his father to sue his grandma, and then got out more than 100,000 taels of silver from the Ministry of Household Affairs. This is the amount, and Fo Langjiren
We still can't talk about it. Now that Wei Zhongxian has intervened like this, let's not talk about whether we can talk about it or not. Let's just talk about how much money will be left to actually purchase the Folangji cannon in the end!
Anyway, no matter how much he can keep, Peng Jin is definitely not optimistic.
This matter was not something he could decide. He called the two doctors from the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Household who were also doing the job together. The three of them closed the door and studied for a while. They all looked sad and felt that it would be difficult to handle this matter.
However, if it doesn't go well, they won't be able to explain it to the court, and if they lose their official position and face charges, no one will be able to escape by then.
"Otherwise, call Jiang Wan over and ask what he means!" The doctor from the Ministry of War is probably the person who wants to facilitate this deal the most. Anyway, no one can do anything now, so let's just break the pot.
In his opinion, the worst outcome would be that the Ministry of War would suffer a loss. The thirty doors that were originally planned to be purchased would at most be reduced or made smaller in size. When things turned out like this, he was helpless.
So, Jiang Wan Shi Shiran was called over. Seeing the sad faces of the three bosses, Jiang Wan immediately laughed when they told them the reason.
"Well, Eunuch Wei has already sent someone to inform Fo Langji. Thirty cannons and two hundred thousand silver can be sold if they are sold. If not, Eunuch Wei will be very unhappy!"
He explained to several big bosses: "If Eunuch Wei is unhappy, Fo Langji will probably be unable to bear it. Therefore, if you all propose to give it to Fo Langji at this price, the deal will definitely be completed!"
The eyes of several big bosses all lit up: "Is this true?"
"Do I dare to talk nonsense in front of several adults?" Jiang Wan spread her hands helplessly.
"If that's the case, the gap won't be that big!" Doctor Hubu pulled his fingers: "As long as Fo Langji agrees, the rest will be Eunuch Wei's filial piety. I think,
The rest of us can think of a way and find another hundred thousand taels of silver, and that will be enough!"
Peng Jin and the other one looked at each other in confusion. Fo Lang Jiren could argue with him, but who dares to argue with Eunuch Wei's current market situation? Believe it or not, Dongchang's fans will come to his home to look for him in a minute.
?
"Eunuch Wei has also given instructions!" Jiang Wan looked at them and said, "Eunuch Wei is worried about military affairs. He just hopes that you will handle this matter well and have the Folangji cannon installed at the border as soon as possible. In this case,
It’s not in vain that Eunuch Wei paid so much attention to this matter!”
They all raised their heads and looked at Jiang Wan as if they were a fool. Almost at the same time, they had this thought in their hearts: "He is really a newborn calf who doesn't know the heights of the sky..."
However, Jiang Wan's next words suppressed their thoughts together.
"This is what Eunuch Wei said to Xiaguan himself!" Jiang Wan said: "Xiaoguan can guarantee that these are definitely not humble words from Eunuch Wei. Let me tell you something that you don't like to hear. In front of Jiang Wan and all of you,
Whatever Eunuch Wei wants to do, he doesn't have to worry about our feelings at all. Sirs, do you think this is the truth?"
Everyone agreed that this was unacceptable, but they really had to admit that this was true even if Peng Jin was a minister.
In the face of Wei Zhongxian's ascendant power, they are not even qualified to jump around. As long as they dare to make a scene, there will be people bigger than them who will jump out to deal with them.
Eunuch Wei really doesn't need to worry about their feelings at all.
However, the way everyone looked at Jiang Wan gradually changed. In this case, Wei Zhongxian could directly tell Jiang Wan, what kind of person is this young man in front of him?
Don't they think Wei Zhongxian is someone who really cares about military and state affairs? Does it make sense to talk about military and state affairs with an illiterate eunuch who was lucky enough to be favored?
During the Zhengtong years, the king misled the king, misled the country and misled the people, and the lessons from his past are still vivid in his mind. Although Wei Zhongxian's evil consequences have not yet appeared, he is afraid that he will not be much better.
Then the only possibility is that the young man in front of him, or in other words, the young man in front of him represents the prince behind him, and persuaded Wei Zhongxian to willingly give up his income on this deal.
"I feel that Professor Jiang has refined talents and outstanding knowledge. It would be a waste of talent to just watch from the sidelines during the talks!"
Peng Jin pondered for a moment and then spoke slowly: "If this deal is reached with the Folangji people, Professor Jiang can participate in the subsequent transportation of the Folangji artillery, acceptance, and various contacts with the Folangji people.
, and the counselor makes a decision!"
"Sure enough, Mr. Peng never forgets to support the underachievers!"
The doctor from the Ministry of War and the doctor from the household department smiled at each other: "We also think so. His Highness King Xin has good vision and sent such capable people to this meeting. If we let Professor Jiang go easily, we will have failed King Xin."
Your Highness’s recommendation!”
Several people laughed loudly, with understanding in their eyes. Jiang Wan looked embarrassed and touched his head. He didn't expect how things could turn out like this.
Is it possible that he has to go to Guangdong to transport the cannons made by Folangji to Liaodong? Then the job he has taken on for himself is a bit big.
"Why, does Professor Jiang feel that he has a heavy responsibility?" Peng Jin asked with a smile.
"Thank you for your respect. Jiang Wan is very scared!" Jiang Wan said frankly: "It's just that Jiang Wan knows his own affairs. If such a big matter is left to Jiang Wan, if it really goes wrong, Jiang Wan will
I really don’t know what to do!”
"Hahaha!" Peng Jin laughed: "Don't worry, you can't handle this matter. You trust His Highness the King, and you have personally received Eunuch Wei's orders. Anyone who dares to embarrass you in this matter is you.
Tell these old guys like us, we old guys will definitely burn incense and bathe in it, and come to visit this dear friend in person to see if he is different from us and has a few extra heads on his neck!"
Ha ha ha ha!
The two doctors beside him burst out laughing. They didn't know that Mr. Peng, who had always been rigid and serious, actually had such a funny side.
