Bao Ye

Chapter 40

wow-

The stewed pear brought by Mr. Yu himself was overturned in front of the courtyard.

The man in black glanced at him without any fluctuation, and only made a "please" gesture to Chi Yunfei.

Master Yu's lips trembled, his face turned pale, and then he got the courage he didn't know where he came from, and shouted angrily: "We saved your life! What are you doing! You can't take him away!"

"To be a man, you must repay him with gratitude! Let him go!"

"We agreed to take you in temporarily! When you recover from your injury, we'll settle—!"

The man in black didn't pay any attention to Master Yu at all, he raised his hand and made a "get out of the way" gesture, extremely arrogant.

But Chi Yunfei couldn't listen any longer, and said, "Master Yu, please get out of the way, I don't want anyone to get hurt anymore."

Probably remembering Bai Huang's matter, Master Yu stiffened all over, and was eagerly pulled aside by the housekeeper to make way for him.

Master Yu's eyes were red, his arms were trembling, and he stammered, "It's all because of the lard for a while, it's all about me..."

"I can understand you." Chi Yunfei sighed, and said, "Don't worry, they dare not do anything to me. At most, they just use me to put pressure on the Wen family."

"But……"

"Take care of Yang Yang." Chi Yunfei said, "Send him back safe and sound, and the Wen family will appreciate your kindness."

Master Yu's pupils shrank suddenly, and he understood everything in an instant.

Chi Yunfei had long suspected that the Yu family was harboring an assassin. He intended to test and collect evidence, but unexpectedly met the assassin himself.As long as the Yu family is willing to go to Wen's mansion to be a witness and protect the young master of the Wen family, then the serious crime of harboring an assassin to kill him can be written off. .

Master Yu's eyes were red, and he didn't know what to say. Holding on to the door frame, he almost couldn't stand up, and said in a trembling voice, "Don't worry, young master. If you risk my life, young master Wen, I will also send you back to Wenzhou safe and sound." government."

Chi Yunfei patted him on the shoulder, with a calm expression on his face, not worried at all, and strode out.

Behind him, Yu Datou and Master Yu chased after a few steps, and then Master Yu grabbed his son's hand, pulled him to kneel down together, and kowtowed deeply to Chi Yunfei.

The lives of their family were accidentally saved by Chi Yunfei.

No matter what they will encounter in the future, they will never forget this kindness.

On the other side, Wen Xinyang frowned slightly in front of a grave, and the coroner said: "The deceased's neck was wrung. Look, General, although he left a suicide note, which was written to be sorry for his master for money, now he has no face to face others and takes poison." He committed suicide to atone for his sins, but the poison could not be swallowed. His neck was twisted, his neck was swollen, and there was no trace of poison in his abdomen, so he died before taking the poison."

"Death time?"

"It should have been around midnight last night."

Wen Xinyang looked at the people next to him again: "What does the family say?"

"He is the only one in his family. His wife, mother and children are all in his hometown, and he makes a living selling vegetables at the entrance of the market all year round." The adjutant held a notebook and followed two policemen behind him, and said, "There is no definite evidence that he and Bai The chef in Wen’s house recognizes him and knows that he often comes to deliver food, but this cannot be used as evidence against the Bai’s family. It can only show that he has indeed been to Wen’s house a few times. "

Wen Xinyang waved his hand: "Check his connections before he was alive, where is the recruiter? Bring and identify the corpse."

"He's been here." A little policeman said, "The recruiter doesn't know him."

Wen Xinyang turned around and walked a few steps, looking gloomy at Yuecheng under the barren mountain.Yuecheng is not too big, and it is distributed in the shape of a huge king for residence, business, market and other places. Looking down from the mountain, the city is harmonious. The moat sparkles in the sun, and the cold wind blows up the dead leaves on the ground. The atmosphere dare not come out.

Liu Qingchuan stepped forward and said: "General, our people have got the news that the Liu family is likely to be selling military firearms privately, and even win over several other families. There is no evidence that the Chi family is also involved, but the Yuecheng Bank Since the year before last, a large number of unreasonable loans have been approved, and the Liu family was not specified in the account, and the bank notes mainly flow to the north, so it is difficult for us to obtain proof of the Liu family."

Liu Qingchuan looked solemnly, looked around, and said in a low voice: "General, your previous guess may be true. President Zheng couldn't wait any longer, and contacted several wealthy households in Yuecheng in private, and cooperated with them in the military-fire business. Yuecheng Bank only dared to issue the money under the instruction of Yuecheng Bank, and the direction of the bank note transaction is in the north, which also confirms this point."

But they lack direct evidence.

No one can question the president with the bank statement, after all, until now, they have not even seen a single hair of an ammunition.

The only flaw is that the Liu family had contact with a few foreigners at the beginning of the year.

north...

Wen Xinyang raised his head and looked into the distance, squinting his eyes slightly.Continuing to the north along the official road, there is the largest temporary capital in the south - Huilong City.

The name was chosen by Zheng Qihong himself, and the meaning is self-evident.

Yuecheng is the headquarters of the Wen family, without the president's private instruction, these merchants dare not use such crooked thinking.

The military-fire business... Wen Xinyang instantly figured out the connection, the corners of his mouth were drawn down, and the side of his face was cold and hard.

Zheng Qihong wanted to intervene in the Jinjiao camp and find an excuse to dismiss Commander Wen, so he had to let them have civil strife first.

Letting wealthy businessmen get involved in the arms-fire business is of great benefit. Once the sweetness is tasted, the Wen family's neutral attitude will be destroyed. No matter what kind of business is in this world, there is no national calamity-wealth that is more tempting. isn't it?

It's no wonder that when he first came to suppress opium, the group of wealthy businessmen easily surrendered their profits, because they had bigger business to do.

Wars, civil strife, and people's livelihoods are when these vampires reap the benefits of fishing.

At that time, armaments, food, and medicines will all become a cake of interests to be divided up. This group of people only wants to make a lot of money, and they don't care about the life and death of ordinary people at all.

At that time, in order to promote the war, wealthy businessmen will take the initiative to take the lead in making troubles.

Now everything is just a pre-dinner dessert: bribe the recruiting officer of the barracks, install his own people, while earning military pay and food and grass, taking advantage of all the advantages, and at the same time slandering the original meritorious soldiers, spreading rumors, and using power to shake the morale of the army; It is only necessary to instigate the military and civilians, and make the people complain. At that time, the backyard of the Wen family will catch fire, and the president will find an excuse: the Wen family is dominant, and the military camp is corrupt. .At that time, he will support his own manpower, and the ultimate goal is to lead the Jinjiao battalion to resume the north-south war with the Beizhen army.

Every step has already been laid out.

And the Wen family seemed to be a giant beast whose lifeline was slowly being strangled by the main forces of the main battle, gradually trapped in the mud, unable to move.

Wen Xinyang didn't speak for a long time, Liu Qingchuan looked at his expression hesitantly: "General...?"

"Father is getting old." Wen Xinyang said suddenly.

Liu Qingchuan dared not speak.

Wen Xinyang put one hand in his pocket and put the other on his side, tapping lightly on the hem of his trousers with his slender index finger: "The war between the North and the South will resume sooner or later. Passive."

Liu Qingchuan sighed: "In the early years, the commander retreated to the south with President Zheng. President Zheng called him brothers and sisters. He treated Wen's family very well. He was very affectionate. Thinking about it, the commander still trusts him."

But the reality is cruel. President Zheng devoted himself to unifying the north and the south, and finally waited until President Xu was seriously ill in the south. How could he miss such a good opportunity?

Commander Wen is getting old, and Zheng Qihong was finally angered by the outcome of looking forward and backward.

"It doesn't matter if you're father, or the general Shangguan who became a monk, or Mr. Bai." Wen Xinyang said, "These elders don't want to see the situation of brother-in-law fighting anymore, they want to promote peaceful reunification, but the main forces are too powerful , It’s not something they can count on just by saying it... They underestimated the ambition of the surname Zheng.”

Liu Qingchuan didn't speak for a long time, and when Wen Xinyang walked down the mountain, he chased after a few steps and asked, "Where's the general?"

"what?"

"What do you think? In the future, the Jinjiao Battalion will fall into your hands. Are you the main battle or the main peace?"

Wen Xinyang didn't speak, and after walking a long distance, he slowly said: "It's just that current events make people, don't you understand? It doesn't count if I say it."

"But it depends on human effort!" Liu Qingchuan said.

"Do what you have to do first." Wen Xinyang didn't look back, "The Zheng surname will not leave us any clues, we can only find another way. Continue to track down the whereabouts of the assassin, check all the connections of the recruiter, and find out who killed him This man who sells vegetables."

Liu Qingchuan said: "But... this is a matter for the police. Even if we find out, what's the use?"

"Details determine success or failure." Wen Xinyang said, "There is no impenetrable wall in the world. As long as you can grasp the details, you can push forward and backward until you catch the loopholes that even Zheng Qihong failed to discover. Then we will win. "

Zheng Qihong will not leave evidence of smuggling arms, nor will he let the Liu family and other wealthy businessmen leave evidence to shake the morale of the army and evade the Wen family.But corruption and bribery is a fact, and the various transaction chains in the middle also exist.

A person, as long as he does one thing, it will definitely leave traces.If you can't catch the big head, then grab the tail and look up the assassins, corpses, and recruiters who took bribes. Sooner or later, you will find something that is really useful.

There are so many people and so many things in this chain of interests that Zheng Qihong cannot fully supervise.

"Report——!" A soldier ran up from the foot of the mountain in a panic, his hat was crooked, and he was sweating profusely from running in the cold, and said, "Report, report to the general! Master Chi, Master Chi was kidnapped by unknown persons! "

Wen Xinyang was taken aback, and even Liu Qingchuan, the police and others behind him were also taken aback.

Which song is this sung again?

Why every time I meet Chi Yunfei, things don't play out according to common sense?

"What is the identity of the kidnapper? Is the entry and exit of the city controlled?"

"At present, everyone is strictly prohibited from leaving the city!" Xiao Bing said, "The identity of the kidnapper is unknown, and he has not left any message. Someone from the Yu family has gone to Wen's house, and the commander asked me to come and find you!"

Yu family?

In the blink of an eye, Wen Xinyang immediately understood.Chi Yunfei guessed that he had found something again, so he went to Yu's house to verify without saying a word!

This time it's not something that can be solved by copying the house rules fifty times, this kid is too courageous!

He hurried down the hill for a few steps and stopped suddenly.After getting along these days, he found that although Chi Yunfei was courageous, he had his own thoughts and would not be blindly impulsive.

So it was impossible for him to go to Yu's house unprepared.

He immediately made a gesture and asked Liu Qingchuan to check it himself: "You go to the gambling houses of Jin Fuban and Xiao Tang, he often goes to those two places, go to Xiao Tang and Ning Wanxiang, and ask them if they know Some inside information. Remember that you go there yourself, and you have to verify all the information one by one, and don't let others interfere!"

Liu Qingchuan nodded immediately: "Yes!"
