Qin Wenyuan gently rubbed this special scimitar with his fingers.
Looking at the knife, he said: "The knives used by ordinary members of the Beidou Society are all this kind of scimitar. So, does this mean that Beidou will have a weapons workshop somewhere?"
Ji Snake frowned and said: "Weapons workshop? Then you need enough iron, right?"
"But salt and iron are very important strategic materials for any country."
"They can't possibly let Beidou get involved in this, right?"
Qin Wenyuan nodded.
in this era.
You don’t have to have enough clothes to cover your body, and you don’t have to have any good building materials.
But definitely not without salt!
Without salt, people will have no strength.
Soldiers cannot protect their country.
People can’t work either!
And without iron, weapons cannot be made.
The soldiers have no weapons. Once they go to the battlefield, they can only be killed by the enemy!
Therefore, salt and iron have been the most important strategic materials for a country for a long time.
Only the imperial court could do this.
If anyone else dares to touch it, then wait to die!
Of course, sometimes the court was too poor, or for other reasons, some of it would be given to businessmen, but that businessman must also be inextricably linked to the court, and would have to pay a lot of profits to the court.
.
Therefore, Ji Snake’s doubts are normal.
If Beidou has a weapons workshop, it must have sufficient iron resources, but iron resources must be controlled by the court of each country.
So, where will Beidou get enough iron resources?
Qin Wenyuan said: "There are only two possibilities."
"Either it is a certain iron mine controlled by the Beidou Society. This iron mine is in a sparsely populated area. They secretly mine, secretly smelt, and secretly manufacture weapons."
"Either, just like Nanzhao, they have already taken control of that country through some means, so they can use that country's help to provide themselves with iron resources."
Qin Wenyuan looked at Ji She and Han Min and asked with a smile: "Which situation do you think is more likely?"
Ji She and Han Min looked at each other.
Han Min said: "The first one."
"The second feeling is very difficult."
Ji She said, "I think the second possibility is more likely."
"Having never been to Nanzhao, it is impossible to imagine that an organization can control a country like that!"
"So, since Beidou can control Nanzhao, why can't it control other countries?"
"The first one seems much simpler, but in fact, it is actually more difficult. After all, if they want to deceive others, they must be in a sparsely populated place. But if it is a sparsely populated place, and many people suddenly appear, once they are caught
If other people find out, will they feel very suspicious?"
"Maybe it will be exposed instead!"
"After all, no one can stop others from entering sparsely populated places, right? If you stop them, it will make people suspicious. If you don't stop them, it will make people even more suspicious! If you directly remove that person, it will only arouse more people.
Come and find it.”
"So, I think the second possibility is more likely."
"Only when all countries support it, no one will think there is a problem."
Qin Wenyuan smiled and nodded, saying: "When Ji She thinks about problems, she becomes more and more comprehensive."
Ji She was a little embarrassed and said: "I learned it all from Lord Qin. If I didn't have the opportunity to follow Lord Qin to Nanzhao this time, I wouldn't have gained the knowledge to think of this."
When Han Min heard this, he immediately felt aggrieved and said, "Master Qin, am I not your best friend? Take me with you wherever you go next time."
"I think if you take me with you or not, I will be eliminated."
Qin Wenyuan was very helpless towards Han Min's rogueness.
I remember when Han Min saw her for the first time, she shamelessly hugged her thigh.
Now, Han Min's relationship with herself is better, and she has no worries anymore.
Qin Wenyuan smiled and shook his head, saying: "If there is a chance, I can take you with me."
Jingzhao Yin Hanmin became happy now.
"Then Master Qin."
Han Min looked around the secret room and said, "This is the Beidou Society's den. So, who destroyed this den?"
"What's the purpose?"
"Looking at them, they didn't leave anyone alive, so they were very aggressive."
Qin Wenyuan is also thinking about this issue.
However, no clues of the perpetrator were left at the scene.
So even if it was Qin Wenyuan, there was nothing he could do for a while.
Qin Wenyuan said: "The forces that can defeat people like Beidou Society will definitely not be too weak."
"Moreover, if I want to prevent anyone from the Beidou Club from escaping or even rushing into the courtyard, they must either have a large number of people or be very strong."
"And if there are a lot of people, Ji Snake may be able to find some clues by investigating various grain stores."
"After all, if people eat whole grains, no matter how deep they hide, they can't stop eating."
"As for extremely powerful individuals, it is difficult to find them."
Qin Wenyuan narrowed his eyes.
Ji She and Han Min also felt embarrassed.
This eucalyptus is different from other eucalyptus.
The other murderers, more or less, all have some relationship with the deceased.
But with a force like the Beidou Society, it would be difficult to determine the identity of the murderer.
After all, it was probably done by some chivalrous people who couldn't stand the Beidou Club.
It could also be done by someone else who has a grudge against Beidou.
There are too many possibilities.
For a while, it was not so easy to judge at all.
Han Min thought of something.
He wondered: "Then Mr. Qin, if he is a murderer and has a grudge against Beidou, why don't these people from Beidou Club shout?"
"They can all fight the enemy, so why not take the opportunity to scream and try to scare the enemy away?"
Qin Wenyuan smiled and said: "I am also very confused when I don't know the identities of these deceased people."
"But now, I understand."
Qin Wenyuan said calmly: "The reason why they didn't take the opportunity to shout is not that they can't do it, but that they don't want to."
"Don't want to?" Death Ji Snake and Han Min were startled.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Qin Wenyuan said: "It's very simple. If they shout and attract the government officials, the enemy may be scared away, but they themselves will be in danger of being exposed.
Already."
"Compared to those enemies, our government is even more of a rival to the Beidou Society!"
"In fact, our government poses a greater threat to the Beidou Society than those enemies."
"So, how dare they scream? They are coming from bad ways. How dare they ask the government to help them?"
Ji She and Han Min heard this.
Nodding thoughtfully.
Han Min said: "So that's it."
Ji She also nodded slightly: "I'm just saying, I can't understand it at all, it's completely unreasonable, but now I understand."
"It turns out they are thieves too."
"So they would rather find a way to fight the enemy by themselves than attract the generals."
"Fighting the enemy, they still have a chance to survive, but once the government discovers that they are members of the Beidou Society, there will be no possibility of survival."
Qin Wenyuan nodded and walked out.
They left the secret room and returned to the backyard of the pawn shop.
Looking at the elegant and quiet courtyard, Qin Wenyuan said: "Han Min, please investigate again and see if you can get any new clues."
"If not, just seal it up temporarily. The identities of these thieves can be directly announced to the outside world."
"The forces of Jianghu and enemies are fighting each other. Let's seal this eucalyptus in this way first."
In ancient times, not all eucalyptus trees bore fruit.
Especially the kind of overt and covert struggle between Jianghu forces.
It is difficult to have an obvious result.
Therefore, the general treatment for such reports is to seal them up and tell the people that it is a vendetta and not an evil person.
This way, people can feel at ease.
As for whether it will end in the end, it all depends on luck.
As for this, the people who died were all thieves of the Beidou Society. I think when the people know about it, not only will they not be afraid, but they will be happy.
After all, the Beidou Society was already an evil force that everyone wanted to fight among the people of the Tang Dynasty.
When Han Min heard Qin Wenyuan's words, his eyes lit up.
He said: "Xiaguan understands, and Xiaguan will do it soon."
For Han Min, this is the best result.
In this case, he doesn't have to worry about being reprimanded.
Qin Wenyuan nodded slightly: "If there are any clues about this incident in the future, or a similar incident occurs, please inform me as soon as possible."
After saying that, Qin Wenyuan walked out.
After learning that the Beidou Society's stronghold had been overturned.
Qin Wenyuan suddenly had some special thoughts in his heart.
Time passed by like this without any wind or waves.
The uprooting of the Beidou Society's strongholds, as Jing Zhaoyin posted the news at the Yamen, really did not cause any panic among the people, but instead made them applaud and praise him.
The impact of these twenty people's lives was thus minimized.
Whether it can be broken in the future will depend on luck.
This is not something that some great detective can break at his word.
After all, in this era, there are no fingerprints or cameras. After a knight-errant performed a heroic act, he left Chang'an and went to other places. Where would you go to find him?
Therefore, even if it was Qin Wenyuan, there was nothing he could do.
And even if Qin Wenyuan has a way, he may not be willing to arrest the murderer if he finds it.
After all, the Beidou Society is also his enemy.
He was the enemy of the Tang Dynasty.
Enemies of my enemies can sometimes be friends!
In this way, three days passed quickly.
This day, early morning.
After Qin Wenyuan participated in the early court, he was retained by Li Shimin.
He followed Li Shimin and walked out of the hall.
Li Shimin asked: "Have you eaten yet?"
Although the morning court in the Tang Dynasty was not held every day, once it was held, it was extremely early.
It was still dark, so there was no chance to eat.
Qin Wenyuan shook his head.
Li Shimin said: "Let's go and have breakfast together. After eating, you can go to Dali Temple."
The two came to the side hall.
At this time breakfast is ready.
Even though Li Shimin was the emperor, his breakfast was very simple.
The two sat down.
Li Shimin picked up the bowl, took a sip of the porridge, and asked: "Can't you find out who made that eucalyptus from the Beidou Club?"
Qin Wenyuan shook his head: "There are no clues."
"This is different from other murderous eucalyptus. There is no preparation. You just kill the enemy when you enter and leave after killing it, so it is difficult to find."
Li Shimin didn't think there was any problem with this.
"If you can't find it, you won't find it. The Beidou Society is not a good thing. It would be better if you died."
Qin Wenyuan smiled and nodded.
"Are you busy with matters at Dali Temple?" Li Shimin asked with concern.
Qin Wenyuan shook his head: "Mr. Chu did a very good job before. He handled all kinds of things in an organized manner, so after I took over, there were not big problems."
Li Shimin smiled and said: "Your vision in selecting people is really excellent."
"Xue Rengui before and Chu Suiliang now are both talents among talents."
Qin Wenyuan said with a smile: "It's not that I have good taste, but that they have their own abilities and I happened to discover them."
"Thousand-mile horses often exist, but bole does not always exist!"
Li Shimin shook his head.
He picked up a piece of pickle with his kuaizi, took a bite, and said: "Since things in Dali Temple are not so busy, let's make some preparations."
"What are you preparing for?" Qin Wenyuan subconsciously looked at Li Shimin.
Then Li Shimin showed a smile.
He said: "Prepare your wedding!"
Qin Wenyuan's eyes widened.
He said: "What does your Majesty mean?"
"The wedding date is set!"
Li Shimin didn't show off either.
"The Ministry of Rites has calculated the date, it will be the sixth day of the next month."
"There are still twenty days left."
"I admire your house. It is almost repaired now. I will reorganize it when the time comes. You and Changle will be able to move in after your grand wedding."
Although Qin Wenyuan had long known that this day would come.
But when I heard this now, I still felt a little strange.
He is about to get married under the witness of His Majesty.
My wife is really going to get a real blessing!
Li Shimin asked: "Are you satisfied with this wedding date?!"
"If you are not satisfied, I can adjust it. I haven't told anyone yet, and I can adjust it at any time."
Listening to Li Shimin's words, Qin Wenyuan's heart was filled with emotion and warmth.
Li Shimin is really good to himself.
He felt that no other emperor would ever let a consort choose the date of their wedding.
Qin Wenyuan said directly: "It doesn't matter to me, as long as Your Majesty and my wife think it's okay."
"Okay, then it will be the sixth day of next month!"
Li Shimin made the decision directly.
He said: "I will announce your wedding date to the world immediately, so be prepared to be the groom's official!"
Qin Wenyuan nodded.
He thought for a while and then said: "On that day, I feel that many interesting things may happen."
Li Shimin's eyes flashed.
He looked at Qin Wenyuan thoughtfully.
Qin Wenyuan didn't explain it clearly to Li Shimin.
But Li Shimin was very wise and would naturally understand what Qin Wenyuan meant.
Li Shimin immediately said: "You have the final say on your wedding and how you want to arrange it."
When Qin Wenyuan heard Li Shimin's words, he knew that Li Shimin had understood what he meant.
He said: "Let the Ministry of Etiquette decide the rules of the wedding. To marry my wife, she must be married in real splendor and in compliance with royal regulations. I cannot let my wife make a fool of herself again at her second wedding. I must
