Chapter 96 Everything is within the calculation of the son
Yin Minghong felt that the past few days he had lived could be called a magical reality.
First, he met an assassin who was abducted by human traffickers in Red Moon Fortress, and then he met Yin Yinyin, a White Night traitor who ran from Morrowind District to Dongyang District. He was finally able to rest at home for a few days, while waiting for a reply from White Night Headquarters, but unexpectedly...
Jing Zhengwei came to the door.
Jing Zhengwei rarely lets his subordinates get involved in other affairs. For example, Yin Minghong hardly knows the people from Wei Ling Maritime Trading. Jing Zhengwei will not let his subordinates carry out any "industrial linkage". He really needs the cooperation of various departments.
When the time comes, he will do it himself.
Even industrial linkage is prohibited, let alone "borrowing the second master of the Red Moon Fortress to suppress the crew of Weiling Sea Trade". Subordinates from different industries are not allowed to know each other for a simple reason - to prevent collusion.
Is it meant to be used at times like this... I don't know these crew members, so naturally I can't inform them secretly. That's why Jing Zhengwei was so relieved to transfer me to join the operation, and the crew later knew that I was the second master of the Red Moon Fortress.
After that, we will be less likely to get close to cadres from other industries of the Jing family, cutting off the possibility of our collusion and achieving the purpose of dividing us...
Yin Minghong's mind was wandering, and his understanding of Jing Zhengwei became deeper, and he became more and more fearful.
As expected of the cunning Jing Zhengwei, he can even do things like dressing up as a woman. Such a superficial strategy may be an almost subconscious instinct for him.
But why only transfer me here?
Doesn't he have more available power in Xuanzhu County?
No, Wei Ling has to change the person in charge after this change. Does he want me to take over Wei Ling?
Just when Yin Minghong was thinking wildly, Le Yu looked at Magnolia who was calm and composed, and said in silence for a moment: "In order to rush here to attend your little party, I haven't eaten yet."
Magnolia looked around: "Sorry, it seems that all the banquets have been moved, and there are no intact banquets."
"It doesn't matter. If no one has touched it, I definitely won't dare to eat it." Le Yu smiled, walked to the nearest banquet and sat down cross-legged. The sailors nearby seemed to have some bold ideas, but behind Le Yu's
The gun-wielding guard took aim and finally walked away obediently.
Le Yu picked up a rose-red crispy pipa leg and gnawed it. It was very tender and delicious. He took a few mouthfuls with relish and asked: "Do you have honey five-flower tea?"
Magnolia said: "There is wine."
"Forget it...Second Master, is there water!?"
Yin Minghong, who was still thinking about Jing Zhengwei's conspiracy, suddenly heard a shout and nodded subconsciously. When he saw Le Yu waving to him, he suddenly knew that he had missed an excellent opportunity and reluctantly drank the water from his waist.
Throw the bag over.
A traitor spy like Yin Minghong would naturally not casually consume the food and drinks provided by others. He could not prepare his own dry food, but he still carried safe water with him. A bag of water was enough for him to survive quietly for three days.
Damn it, if I had guessed earlier, I could have killed him by putting poison in the water... Even if Yin Minghong knew that Jing Zhengwei's unusual behavior was impossible for him to guess, he still regretted it.
Le Yu had eaten and drank enough, took out a handkerchief to wipe her hands, and looked at Magnolia, who had been standing still: "Because you are so calm, I gave you a meal to think of your words.
.I am actually an elegant and easy-going person. No matter what, I will give you a chance to explain. I hope you can impress me."
Bai Magnolia clasped her fists and said, "May I ask when the young master knew about my connection with the fleet?"
"Four months ago, I've been paying attention to you since you proposed loading the Grace Lock."
"It turns out that everything was in Young Master's calculation." Bai Magnolia said with a wry smile: "Young Master's background is far deeper than I imagined."
Yin Minghong couldn't help but glance at Le Yu, thinking that in addition to being proficient in women's clothing and hiding shotguns, Jing Zhengwei actually had a secret intelligence team that monitored others for him?
The water in Jingjia is really too deep.
Others had similar thoughts to Yin Minghong and Magnolia. Naturally, they could not have imagined that Jing Zhengwei actually investigated it himself.
right,
Le Yu searched for Jing Zhengwei’s memories,
I found that he was a carefree young man during the day,
At night, there are night walkers roaming across Xuanzhu County!
It was not without reason that Jing Zhengwei chose to learn the Aiki Qin Sun Combat Technique and the Lingxu Combat Technique: the Aiki Qin Sun Combat Technique comprehensively strengthened various attributes, while the Aiki Qin Sun Combat Technique focused on manipulating sounds, which could create sonic explosions and damage.
, can also carry out silent lurking; Lingxu's tactics are even simpler, not only suitable for the 'rich man' mode like Jing Zhengwei who can use gun weapons without any worries, but also can run fast, which is very suitable for saving lives.
With these two tactics, Jing Zhengwei is very comfortable in conducting secret operations. Although he does not have the "invincible in the dark" advantage of the hidden sword tactics, he does not have the disadvantage of being "unbeatable at dawn". As for his lethality in the dark,
If the problem is insufficient, he can solve it with a shotgun.
Sometimes Jing Zhengwei would even personally assassinate targets to create an advantage for his chamber of commerce. In addition, he also often conducted secret investigations. For example, the "treasure map" given by Le Yu to Yin Minghong was actually when Jing Zhengwei was investigating his younger brother.
An unexpected surprise.
Bai Magnolia colluded with the fleet, and Jing Zhengwei had already noticed it.
Only then did Le Yu understand why Jing Zhengwei took the desperate path of being a master of caution: without the support of his mother's clan, and his family didn't think highly of him, Jing Zhengwei just relied on himself for everything. He didn't have a secret army, and he didn't have the time to train him.
A trusted subordinate, so he could only act on his own.
"In that case, let's open the skylight and speak frankly." Bai Magnolia said: "Yes, I colluded with the fleet and carried out slave trade without telling the young master. The grace lock was not used for trading, but was bought to control the skyline area.
slaves, and then sold as high-end commodities to the big landowners in Scardy.”
"Excluding bulk goods such as grain, tobacco, and sugar, we kept 75% of the gold and silver profits from the fleet's triangular trade trip, and only 25% were handed over to Wei Ling as payment for goods."
"After deducting the wages of the crew members, the four of me, Black Flag, Baolong, and Mr. Wu made a total profit of nearly ten thousand gold yuan."
Bai Magnolia said: "If I guessed correctly, Master, you should have sent people to search our house by now, right?"
"What!?"
Except for Heiqi, Mr. Wu and Baolong both looked stunned. Baolong couldn't help but take a step closer to Leyu: "No one is allowed to take my money!"
boom!
There was a gunshot, and a bullet hole burst out in front of Baolong's feet, but Baolong had no idea of giving in. He looked at Le Yu and glared angrily. Mr. Wu quickly grabbed Baolong: "Don't be impulsive, keep the green hills and don't worry about having no firewood."
, money and personal belongings..."
"Mr. Wu, I know that your money is definitely not hidden at home." Bai Yulan smiled and said: "But the young master knew about our affairs four months ago. It has been several months, and you have been at sea for a long time. He has a lot of money."
Take the time to find out your relationship. If I guessed correctly, Mr. Wu should have a sweetheart and an illegitimate child. Did you give all your money to them?"
Mr. Wu's expression changed.
"He's right." Le Yu took out his pocket watch and took a look at it. "Counting the time, your ill-gotten wealth has almost arrived at my house."
Baolong couldn't bear it any longer: "I'll fight with you -"
boom!
There was a blast of light, and Baolong was hit hard on the temple by Black Flag. He was hit so hard that he fell to the ground with stars in his eyes. He stumbled to his feet, holding his forehead, and looked at Black Flag with disbelief: "Captain, you
, you...you betrayed us and took refuge in that bastard!?"
When Mr. Wu heard this, he couldn't help but stay away from Heiqi. The other crew members also looked at Heiqi with strange eyes. A group like them lived on the sea, and although betrayal was not uncommon, if the captain betrayed him for profit,
The crew member is another word - even scum would despise him.
Black Flag said solemnly: "Listen to what Director Bai has to say first."
"Baolong, don't be nervous." Bai Magnolia smiled and said: "From the beginning, this money does not belong to us, we just keep it for the young master."
Baolong obviously couldn't turn his head around: "What do you mean? Isn't that the money that should be given to me?"
"If it was before, I'm not sure, but since the young master knew our secret four months ago, I'm relieved."
Bai Magnolia clapped her hands gently, looked at Le Yu and said, "From the very beginning, Young Master wanted us to carry out the slave trade without telling you, right?"
Le Yu was silent, and no one else had reacted yet. Only a few people like Mi Die, Yin Minghong, etc. suddenly realized.
"The profits of the slave trade are so huge. If the young master is not interested, it must be a lie. But the young master also sees the risks involved - those chambers of commerce that are now doing the slave trade openly will sooner or later be sacrificed by the Silver Blood Society and sent to Tianji.
Warlords appease the people, and of course you don’t want to follow in their footsteps, sir.”
"But what if someone was doing the slave trade 'hiding it from you'?"
"What if they don't even mention the name of the chamber of commerce when doing transactions?"
"What if you were 'in the dark' about everything?"
Bai Magnolia raised the account book in her hand and said: "I had a vague feeling that you knew about it, sir, so I deliberately reported the grace lock at a high profit twice in a row. Your acquiescence confirmed my guess.
"
"It's impossible for you not to doubt Grace Lock's profits and customers, but you didn't even ask, which means you know our real secret. Even if our affair is exposed, you can show that you have not profited from the slave trade at all by showing your account books.
What we are selling is just 'grace locks'."
"As long as you push us out, you can wipe yourself out."
"If other chambers of commerce do this, they may not be able to pass the test, but the young master is a member of the Jing family, and the Silver Blood Guild will definitely give you this face."
"Actually, I don't think you, Master, will wait until Yinxue will take action."
Magnolia tilted her head and smiled: "When we are fat enough, you will probably take the initiative to harvest us, catch us all, take over all the property we have accumulated, and then divide some of it and send it to a few of us 'culprits'
Give it as a gift to the Silver Blood Society so that the Silver Blood Society can properly make friends with the warlords of Skyrim."
"In this way, sir, you will be able to enjoy all the benefits of the slave trade without losing your wings. We are deeply entrenched and it is difficult to get rid of us. If you take this opportunity to deal with us, you can just cultivate new confidants."
"Sir, am I right?"
Le Yu took a sip of water, neither admitting nor denying it, but asked: "Since you guess that you will only end up like this in the end, why do you still do this?"
"Why..." Magnolia smiled bitterly: "Sir, actually this is a gambling game."
"I originally planned to escape Xuanzhu County and live a good life elsewhere if I made enough money. Therefore, the later I escape, the greater my profits will be; the later you take action, the greater your profits will be.
many."
"But the problem is that there is only one winner in this game. Those who act late will definitely lose to those who act first. Just like now, if we decided to break up and leave Xuanzhu County last time, then we should be able to do it elsewhere now
We are living a happy little life, and the young master can only watch us fly away with the profits."
"I may not lose, and you may not win, sir. But I didn't expect that you would harvest us so quickly. Are you short of money?"
Le Yu shook his head: "There is no shortage for the time being."
"Or maybe the Tianji District is about to settle down?" Bai Magnolia looked at Black Flag, who shook his head slightly.
Le Yu also said: "I don't know the information about Tianji District."
At this time, Bai Magnolia finally showed doubts in her eyes: "Then why did the young master take action so quickly? You should know that we will definitely continue at this time. At least until we conduct trade three or four more times and accumulate enough money, you will have enough profits.
...The more than 10,000 gold yuan we have now is actually the icing on the cake for you...Ah, I understand."
Le Yuqi said: "Do you understand?"
Bai Magnolia said: "I have ignored the impact of asset appreciation on people's hearts. Someone like Mr. Wu who has descendants may have the idea of settling down now. Although I, Black Flag, and Baolong are not satisfied yet, I will continue to do so.
Do it once or twice, and when the money reaches a certain level, we may stop early."
"Just like a plant, sometimes it is necessary to cut off the best-developed part at the top so that it can continue to grow vigorously. Young master, you show up now and take away the property we have accumulated before, forcing us to continue to 'hide the truth', and you
The losses can be kept to a minimum.”
"I also ignore your status, young master... You don't have to pretend at all. As long as the accounts are decent and a part of the profits is taken out, the Silver Blood Association will not care about you. Even if you are 'honest and honest' with us, we can only continue
Driven by you."
"The choice to appear when we have completed three trades and are satisfied with it not only suppresses our arrogance, but also makes us who have tasted the sweetness lose the idea of resistance and have to give in."
Bai Magnolia sighed with emotion: "Everything is within Young Master's calculation. I thought I could calculate Young Master, but I didn't know that Young Master had already calculated every step. Bai Magnolia was convinced."
Le Yu blinked and noticed that the eyes of the people around him were looking at him with more admiration, fear, awe, and fear, and he felt a little confused.
Why?
Am I so aggressive?
Isn't it just because Qing Lan discovered the secret and activated Jing Zhengwei's memory about Magnolia, that I took the opportunity to bring people over to outflank these young men?
As for why he called Yin Minghong over... In fact, Le Yu is the type of "calling friends together when going to the toilet". It is rare to get into a group fight and kill people, and the only one he can call a friend in Xuanzhu County (he thinks he is)
Since Yin Minghong was the only one left, Le Yu naturally wanted to call on his brothers to kill people together.
This shouldn't be a trial meeting for Bai Yulan and others, so why has it now become a scene for Jing Zhengwei's black-hearted capitalist to show off?
