Chapter 359 Chapter 362: Killing with a Borrowed Knife
Author: unknown
Imperial City, inside Shengtian Hall.
Qin Wei looked at the memorial left by Shen Wansan and his expression moved slightly.
At this time, Shen Wansan was already on the route to Qingling Island, but before leaving, he sent a memorial to Qin Wei, requesting the mobilization of the Wanhuang coins stored in the inner treasury.
Today, most of the coins used in Dali are silver coins and copper coins cast by the central bank. In terms of foreign trade, Dali mainly uses silver coins and ten thousand emperor coins.
Therefore, the Royal Chamber of Commerce reserves a lot of Wanhuang coins, but most of the Wanhuang coins are in Qin Wei's inner treasury.
"Can you confirm the quality of those pills?" Qin Wei asked Ning Ya in front of him.
Ning Ya said: "Your Majesty, I can confirm that the batch of elixirs came from the Shenglan Dynasty, but we don't know the specific types of elixirs at the moment."
"Who is the owner of the elixir?" Qin Wei asked again.
"According to the information we received, these pills were brought by the Hengyuan Commercial Alliance, and their owner is Cheng Yuan from the Hengyuan Commercial Alliance."
"The main trading area of the Hengyuan Commercial Alliance is the dozen sea areas east of the Beichen Sea, and Cheng Yuan is the only member of the Hengyuan Commercial Alliance in the Beichen Sea."
"He does have the ability to bring elixirs from the Shenglan Dynasty, and he has sold elixirs from the Shenglan Dynasty on Qingling Island three times in the past thirty years."
Neia explained.
Qin Wei had a general understanding, nodded, and said: "I understand!"
The reason why he asked these questions was because he suspected that the origin of this batch of pills was unknown, or that it was a conspiracy.
Pills from the Shenglan Dynasty rarely appear on Qingling Island, especially large quantities of pills, which are even rarer.
When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
The rarer things are, the more secrets they hide behind them.
But no matter what is hidden behind this, it will not affect Dali from taking this batch of pills.
Without much hesitation, Qin Wei reviewed the memorial left by Shen Wansan and said, "You can go to the Donghai Navy to second a battalion of the navy."
This time Shen Wansan transferred 50 million imperial coins, equivalent to the amount of silver dollars, which almost emptied all the ten thousand imperial coins in Qin Wei's inner treasury.
To transport such a large sum of money to Qingling Island naturally requires strict protection.
"Here!" Neia responded and then left.
Qin Wei was sitting in the study, frowning slightly.
He always felt that something was wrong about this matter, but he couldn't put his finger on what was wrong.
After pondering for a moment, he could only put aside the matter temporarily and focus on the memorial on his desk.
However, as soon as he picked up a memorial, he felt Zhao Gao asking to see him in the chessboard space.
Qin Wei immediately closed his eyes and sank into the chessboard space.
Today's chessboard space has undergone considerable changes. Qin Wei and all the spiritual plants owned by Dali have been transplanted into the chessboard space.
Including the Awakening Spirit Fruit in the Spiritual Wasteland, there are a total of twenty-two spiritual plants.
Only the Tao Heart Fruit Tree of Tao Heart Viewing was not transplanted by Qin Wei.
There are so many spiritual plants in the chessboard space, making the already fairy-like chessboard space more like a fairyland.
After these spiritual plants were transplanted into the chessboard space, Qin Wei discovered that the chessboard space was actually expanding.
So far, the original chessboard space of more than four acres has expanded to more than five acres.
Although the expansion speed is very slow, Qin Wei is still very happy about it.
After his mind sank into the chessboard space, Qin Wei immediately saw Zhao Gao.
"Meet your Majesty!" Zhao Gao also noticed Qin Wei and bowed to him.
"Is something wrong?" Qin Wei asked.
Zhao Gaodao: "Your Majesty, the time for the Giant Spirit Dynasty's expedition has been determined, it will be in four months."
"Four months later!"
Qin Wei walked slowly among the spiritual plants, thoughtfully.
They will set off in four months, and it will probably be five months before their expeditionary force reaches the Yuluo Sea.
In other words, they still have more than four months to prepare.
Time is neither long nor short.
"Do you know how many troops the Giant Spirit Dynasty will send?" Qin Wei asked.
Zhao Gao shook his head slightly and said: "It's not clear yet, but it shouldn't be less than one million!"
Qin Wei nodded slightly.
"Check the strength of their expedition troops and the powerful men from the Jizhao Realm who are accompanying them."
"Here!" Zhao Gao responded.
"Is there anything else?" Qin Wei asked.
Zhao Gaodao: "I want to ask your Majesty to give you ten white chess pieces!"
"Okay!" Qin Wei didn't even ask, and agreed directly.
There are only ten white chess pieces. Qin Wei has no shortage of white chess pieces now. There are hundreds of white chess pieces lying on the Yitian chessboard.
"It's not for the slave, but for one of the slave's subordinates!" Zhao Gao said.
Qin Wei looked at him in surprise, "Your subordinate? Not from Dali?"
"He is a young warrior whom I conquered in the Giant Spirit Dynasty."
Then Zhao Gao briefly told Qin Wei about Fei Jian's situation.
Qin Wei was a little surprised that Zhao Gao would recruit Luowang members from outside Dali, and even more surprised that Zhao Gao could value someone so highly.
However, Qin Wei did not reject Zhao Gao, but said: "Let him come to Dali!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zhao Gao bowed.
…
After the Giant Spirit Dynasty determined the time for its expedition, the situation in Giant Spirit Kyoto became even more dangerous.
Like a crazy wild dog, Heiyuntai searches for spies from all forces. In the past, they only operated at night, but now he will unabashedly search the streets during the day.
Under such a crazy attack, spies from all forces suffered heavy losses. Even Zhao Gao had to move his temporary stronghold from the original village to the mountains far away from Kyoto.
Of course, although Zhao Gao has moved his base, Luowang still has some spies hiding in the giant spirit Kyoto.
However, these spies are basically in a state of silence. As long as it is not important information, they will not contact you.
And Zhao Gao was not idle either. After reporting to Qin Wei, Zhao Gao appeared in a cave.
This is Luo Wang's new stronghold in the Giant Spirit Dynasty.
"grown ups!"
Seeing the sudden appearance of Zhao Gao, Fei Jian was startled.
Zhao Gao ignored his shock and just said: "Your Majesty has agreed, you can go to Dali!"
"Thank you, Sir!" Fei Jian was surprised and happy, and immediately forgot about Zhao Gao's sudden appearance just now.
Zhao Gao stared at him and said: "You are going to meet His Majesty this time. I don't need to tell you what to do, but if you dare to be disrespectful or rude in any way, then don't blame me for being rude!"
Fei Jian's heart trembled, "I understand that I am now a member of Dali and your Majesty's most loyal minister!"
"Just understand!"
Zhao Gao nodded calmly.
He understands Fei Jian, but in fact Fei Jian is not suitable to be a spy or killer in the trap because his character is too out of the ordinary.
But he still wanted to keep Feijian in the net because Feijian's talent was high enough.
Luowang requires talented people.
At this moment, a member of the snare walked into the cave.
"Lord Qi, there is movement in the black sand!"
When Zhao Gao heard this, his narrow eyes flashed with a cold light.
"What's the movement?"
"They sent people to Black Cloud Island, but they only sent three people!"
Fei Jian said: "Sir, they are verifying."
The location of Heiyun Island was just revealed to Heisha people yesterday. Today Heisha sent people to verify it. Obviously Heisha didn't want to miss this opportunity.
Zhao Gao thought for a while and said: "Keep an eye on them. If they take action, report it immediately!"
"Here!"
…
Star Spirit City is located a hundred miles south of Giant Spirit Kyoto and is a county seat of the Giant Spirit Dynasty.
Black Sand's stronghold in the Giant Spirit Dynasty is in Xingling City.
In an ordinary house, three old men wearing black robes were sitting in the dark room.
They are the three leaders of the Black Sand Organization of the Dai Viet Dynasty, Fu Yanlin, Hong Ming and Lu Yao.
"It has been confirmed, that is the headquarters of Heiyuntai!"
Hong Ming said in a deep voice.
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's destroy it now!" Lu Yao stood up and said impatiently.
The Dai Viet Dynasty and the Ju Linh Dynasty have been fighting for decades, and Hei Sa and Black Cloud Terrace have also been fighting for decades.
Up to now, the hatred between the two sides has been endless.
They have always wanted to find Black Cloud Island and completely destroy the existence of Black Cloud Island.
However, they didn't know the specific location of Black Cloud Island until now.
"Wait! What's the rush?" Fu Yanlin looked at Lu Yao and said.
Lu Yao smiled and said: "Aren't I anxious?"
Hong Ming said calmly: "What if this is a trap?"
At this time, they did not know that the location of Black Cloud Island was revealed to them by Luo Wang, so they would naturally doubt the authenticity of this news.
And Hong Ming also suspected that this might be a trap prepared by Heiyuntai for them.
Facing the old rival Heiyuntai, they had to be careful.
"Probably not!" Lu Yao said.
Hong Ming looked at Fu Yanlin and said, "We cannot rule out the possibility."
Fu Yanlin frowned and fell into deep thought.
Bait!
trap!
This is not impossible.
In fact, they have been tricked by Heiyuntai in this way before.
Heiyuntai deliberately revealed some false news to lure them there, and then killed them in one fell swoop.
Heiyuntai has used this kind of calculation many times, so they should be cautious.
However, Fu Yanlin felt that this was not a trap from Heiyuntai.
Because that is Heiyundai Island, the headquarters of Heiyundai.
Even if Heiyuntai wants to set up bait to lure them, there is no need to expose Heiyundai.
The price is really too high.
As for whether the Heiyun Island in the Qingmeng Mountains is fake, it is even more impossible.
They have already confirmed that it is the real Black Cloud Island.
It is difficult to fake the headquarters of an organization like Heiyuntai.
Not just a few houses, but a few buildings can be called a headquarters. The headquarters of an intelligence organization must have a specialized intelligence analysis and storage organization.
Just like Luowang's headquarters, the files alone fill more than a dozen pavilions.
Every force and every powerful person has their own files, which need to be classified and stored, and need to be deleted and accessed at any time.
In addition, the headquarters of the intelligence agency will have a large number of clerical staff to analyze and organize intelligence.
Therefore, if you want to build a fake headquarters, the cost is not small.
Thinking of this, Fu Yanlin said: "It shouldn't be a trap!"
"If it's not a trap, then someone wants to take advantage of us!" Hong Ming said.
"It's just a borrowed knife to kill someone. We are the knife! And there shouldn't be many people who can do such a thing!"
Fu Yanlin's deep eyes flashed with wisdom, "Although there are many spies in Giant Spirit Kyoto, in fact there are not many truly important forces!"
"In addition to us, there are also the Dark Night of the Hundred Stars Dynasty, the Snare of the Dali Dynasty, and the Secret Martial Division of the Wu'an Dynasty."
"The Dark Night of the Hundred Stars Dynasty suffered heavy losses due to the attack of Heiyundai. They should not be able to find the location of Heiyun Island now."
"Although the Wu'an Dynasty has been suppressed by the Giant Spirit Dynasty, they still dare not break up with the Giant Spirit Dynasty. It is impossible to reveal the location of Black Cloud Island to us."
The Wu'an Dynasty was located to the south of the Juling Dynasty. Like the Hundred Stars Dynasty, the Wu'an Dynasty was also the target of suppression by the Juling Dynasty.
All along, the Wu An Dynasty has also been fighting against the Ju Ling Dynasty, and they even secretly support the Dai Viet Dynasty.
It can be said that the Wu An Dynasty was an ally of the Dai Viet Dynasty, but currently the Wu An Dynasty has not completely broken with the Ju Ling Dynasty.
"So the only force that wants to use our power to destroy Heiyun Island is the Dali Dynasty's network!" Fu Yanlin said with an affirmative tone.
"That means we can attack Heiyun Island!" Lu Yao couldn't help but say again.
Fu Yanlin glared at him again.
"You are over two hundred years old, so you can't be steady!"
Lu Yao laughed and said: "We have worked together for nearly a hundred years, and it's not like you don't understand my temperament. My only idea now is to destroy Black Cloud Island!"
Fu Yanlin shook his head helplessly, this old man's temper was so impatient.
He was too lazy to pay attention to Lu Yao anymore, but asked Hong Ming: "Can we find the person who made the trap?"
"They can't be found. They are now hidden so deep that even Heiyuntai can't find them, let alone us!" Hong Ming shook his head.
Heiyuntai occupies the home field advantage here, and because they have been fighting with Heiyuntai for decades, they can be regarded as the local leader here.
But facing the snare, they were like facing a fog, unable to grasp it at all.
It's not that Luo Wen is too powerful, but because Luo Wen's entry into the Giant Spirit Dynasty was too short.
For intelligence gathering, time is the most important factor.
Only with enough time can more and more accurate information be obtained.
So until now, their knowledge of the snare was limited to a name.
And they got this name from Heiyuntai.
Fu Yanlin stroked his long beard and said with a smile: "It seems that we can only be used by them!"
Hong Ming thought so.
It is absolutely impossible for them to give up this opportunity.
Since they already know the location of Heiyun Island, they must destroy Heiyun Island.
"Dispatch manpower!" Fu Yanlin said.
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away!" Hong Ming said.
…
Three days later.
In the Qingmeng Mountains.
A large number of Black Sand members quietly entered the mountains.
At the same time, Zhao Gao also received news that Heisha was about to attack Heiyun Island.
How could he miss such a good show!
The day he received the news, he took several of his subordinates into the depths of the Qingmeng Mountains.
In the vast mountains, a big drama is about to take place.
As the protagonist, Hei Yuntai didn't know anything about it at this time.
They still focus on the city of Kyoto, and are still frantically attacking the spies hidden in the city of Kyoto.
If they knew someone was going to steal their hometown, I wonder if they would still have the heart to go crazy in Kyoto. (End of Chapter)
