My father Zhu Gaoxu

Chapter 114 The Birth of Dongchang
"Master, what do you see me doing?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked Yao Guangxiao with a guilty conscience. To be honest, he quite rejected Dongchang, a notorious spy agency.

Yao Guangxiao looked at him and smiled without saying a word.

Zhu Di was already thinking about whether to let the eunuchs around him take charge of the East Factory?
Now suddenly hearing Yao Guangxiao's reminder, Zhu Di suddenly slapped his hands and said, "Yes, Zhanhe, you are young and capable, no one is more suitable than you to be in charge of the Dongji Incident Factory!"

In addition to ability, Zhu Zhanhe's identity is also very important. He is Zhu Di's grandson, not to mention his loyalty. Moreover, Zhu Gaoxu will go to Tianzhu, and Zhu Zhanhe will definitely follow him in the future.

So for Zhu Di, Zhu Zhanhe is both loyal and capable, and he is destined to stay away from the power core of Daming in the future, so he is simply the most suitable candidate.

"Grandfather, I still serve as the commander of Jinyiwei!"

Zhu Zhanhe hurriedly said, he is the commanding officer of Jinyiwei, so he can no longer be the factory owner of the East Factory, right?

"Jin Yiwei is just a leader from a distance, and it is not a name at all. Moreover, the East Factory was originally recruited from Jin Yiwei. You, Jin Yiwei, are the commanders and envoys in charge of the East Factory, which is even more legitimate!"

Zhu Di laughed again.

"I……"

Now Zhu Zhanhe had nothing to say, but his face was still full of reluctance.

Seeing the reluctance on his grandson's face, Zhu Di was also a little soft-hearted, so he said again: "If you don't want to, I won't force you. At most, choose one of the eunuchs around you and let him take charge of the Dongji Incident Factory." !"

"No, Grandpa Huang, since you have a place for your grandson, of course your grandson can't refuse. I am willing to take charge of this Dongji Incident Factory. Let's call it Dongchang for short in the future!"

Zhu Zhanhe hastily stopped him.

Just kidding, instead of letting the eunuchs manage the East Factory, it is better for him to manage it. This at least cut off the path of eunuchs' monopoly, and coupled with the military aircraft department under the skin of the cabinet, it should reduce many hidden dangers for Daming.

In addition, not all the Dongchang in history were eunuchs, and even except for the top few, the others were basically normal people.

"Haha, I knew Zhan He would definitely be willing!"

Zhu Di laughed out loud, but a cunning flashed in his eyes.

Just now he purposely mentioned eunuchs, because he knew that Zhu Zhanhe didn't like eunuchs, and suggested that he should not allow eunuchs to read and write, so Zhu Zhanhe would definitely not let eunuchs take charge of such an important institution as Dongchang.

Zhu Zhanhe didn't know that he was being tricked by Zhu Di, and now his mind was filled with the scene of a group of Dongchang fans kneeling in front of him, saying "meet the factory owner" in unison, it has to be said that it is really eye-catching.

Compared with the cabinet that is still in preparation, Dongchang, a spy agency that directly obeys the emperor's orders, is much simpler. It even only needs a word from Zhu Di, and Dongchang is established.

Zhu Zhanhe agreed to take charge of Dongchang, and Zhu Di also gave him a formal official position, named "Admiral Dongchang Official School Office Imperial Envoy", or "Admiral Dongchang" for short.

Once there is an official position, of course there must be a yamen and subordinates, so Zhu Zhanhe and Yao Guangxiao bid farewell to Zhu Di, and the two came to the north of Donghuamen together.

There are a large number of government agencies here, such as the publishing house run by Zhu Zhanji.

Zhu Di was very generous, and directly granted Zhu Zhanhe the largest official office, which was divided into four courtyards, front, back, left, and right. The area occupied was definitely not smaller than Beizhen Fusi, enough for hundreds of people to work together.

"It's not bad here, not only is it big enough, but it's also on the edge of the imperial city, so it's very convenient to enter and leave the palace."

After Yao Guangxiao looked at the entire government office, he nodded again and again.

"Master, do you really think that I can manage this East Factory well?"

At this moment, Zhu Zhanhe asked listlessly.

"If you don't take over, then the eunuchs in the palace can only manage it, such as Huang Yan who is next to His Majesty. I guess he is very willing to take charge of the East Factory."

Yao Guangxiao replied with a chuckle.

"Then what should I do?"

Zhu Zhanhe is still a little unconfident. No matter in his previous life or now, he has never been in charge of such a complicated organization, and it is also a secret service organization.

"You can do whatever Jinyiwei does. Of course you have one more function than them, and that is to supervise Jinyiwei!"

Seeing that Zhu Zhanhe was really flustered, Yao Guangxiao said to him patiently.

"Jin Yiwei manages so many things, how can I manage it?"

Zhu Zhanhe asked again.

"So you have to divide the priorities. For Dongchang, the most important thing now is to supervise Jinyiwei, not to fight for power with them. Besides, Dongchang is not alone. My subordinates will arrive soon. By then, you have Just tell them to do anything."

Yao Guangxiao said patiently again.

While speaking, a group of people rushed to the official office, except for the leader who was wearing official uniform, the others were all in plain clothes.

"Cao Lei, a hundred households of the guard army, pay homage to the son and young master!"

The leading officer strode forward and saluted Zhu Zhanhe and Yao Guangxiao.

"Cao Baihu doesn't need to be too polite!"

When Zhu Zhanhe spoke, he also looked at Cao Baihu in surprise.

The so-called guards are actually Zhu Di’s personal guards when he was King Yan back then. Thought I still had one.

"Your Majesty, Cao Lei and his team were originally used to spy on the military situation. Later, after Jing Nan succeeded, His Majesty felt that the north was still uncertain and the military situation was still very important, so he retained Cao Lei and his team and handed it over to me. Specially responsible for investigating military situations."

Yao Guangxiao also introduced at this time.

"I see."

After hearing this, Zhu Zhanhe nodded and said, as a war madman, Zhu Di was always prepared for war even if he became emperor.

"Cao Lei, you will be merged into the East Factory in the future, and you will be at the disposal of Prince Hou!"

Yao Guangxiao gave Cao Lei instructions again at this time.

"Subordinates obey!"

Cao Lei clasped his fists at Yao Guangxiao, and then saluted Zhu Zhanhe again: "Your Majesty, please give me your instructions!"

"Cao Baihu, you're welcome, let's talk in the living room!"

Zhu Zhanhe led the crowd into the hall as he spoke, and then Cao Lei introduced Zhu Zhanhe to his subordinates. There were not many people, only more than 30.

Although Cao Lei only has a hundred households, in fact, his subordinates have already surpassed the limit of a hundred households, and the people who came today are only people from the capital. Besides, there are a large number of people under him who are active on the grasslands in the north , collecting the movements of various tribes in the grassland.

After Cao Lei finished introducing his subordinates, Yao Guangxiao reminded again: "My lord, Cao Lei alone can't support the entire Dongchang, so next you have to go to Jinyiwei to pick people, they are Dongchang. The main force of the factory!"
