Veteran logistics?
The black-faced man was startled for a moment, and then he seemed to remember that the person in front of him was the owner of Veteran Logistics, and immediately replied: "I heard some rumors, it seems that it has been sealed up."
"What exactly?"
Lin Bai asked anxiously.
The black-faced man shook his head.
On the other hand, another person replied: "It seems to be trafficking in weapons. It is said that there are quite a lot of them. They were jointly seized by the Navy Battalion and the Water Transport Yamen, which has a great impact."
"Warrior Logistics and Su's Clothing Store have all been closed down, and the Song family's business has also been closed down."
Lin Bai's face suddenly darkened.
"Where is that man? Do you know how my two wives are doing?"
"I heard that the young prince is negotiating with the Yamen to protect the two Mrs. Lin. I don't know what the result will be."
Little prince?
Zhu Kang?
Lin Bai was startled for a moment, right! And this guy, if he comes forward, maybe...
However, trafficking in weapons is, in the worst case, treason. The Liu family was protected by its leader and faction at the beginning, and it was over as soon as it was said to be over. It was not certain whether Zhu Kangbao could survive.
After all, he is a dandy prince, and it would be enough if Prince Ning comes forward.
However, Lin Bai actually had reservations about Prince Ning. Last time, he originally wanted to arrest the Liu family for trafficking Tianzhu hemp, but in the end, he accidentally caught the Liu family trafficking weapons.
As for his plan, only Prince Ning and those around Lin Bai knew about it.
Therefore, he was very doubtful whether there was anything related to Prince Ning.
It's just that he pretended to be confused before and didn't want to pay attention. Before leaving Jinling, he told the proud lady and the little goblin to keep as far away from Prince Ning's Mansion as possible. This was the reason.
Of course, the most suspicious thing was the Red Lotus Sect. That night in Yanzhou, he had witnessed the female bandit boarding the ship.
Lin Bai asked a few more questions. Unfortunately, these pirates were far away from the land and did not know much about them. Moreover, these secrets were not accessible to them due to their status.
After thinking for a while, he asked again: "Is there a Red Lotus Sect in this sea area?"
Hearing this, several people were startled.
The black-faced man said: "I have heard about it, but I have never seen it. There is a Lotus Island, and there are legends about it being related to the Red Lotus Sect."
"Lotus Island?"
"right!"
The black-faced man nodded, "Lotus Island is very mysterious. No one knows where it is. It is said that the island is surrounded by fog and covered with reefs, and foreign ships cannot approach it at all."
"The owner of Lotus Island is very mysterious and has a powerful navy, and..."
He paused and seemed to hesitate, but finally said: "Moreover, they traffic Tianzhu hemp. They supply Tianzhu hemp in the surrounding provinces of Jiangnan, Jiangdong, and Jiangbei."
"The younger one used to run a ship in Wuzhou Trading, and the Liu family's goods were all imported from them."
What? !
Lin Bai's pupils shrank slightly.
How many provinces are Tianzhu Hemp grown in? How big a profit is this? And there are also navy masters? The golden triangle? Do you do this professionally?
Did people do this in ancient times?
"What's the specific situation?"
The dark-faced man shook his head, "You can't get in touch with them. Master Biao is very familiar with them. It was Master Biao who contacted them in the Liu family before."
"Now Master Biao will also help them traffic Tianzhu Hemp. We suspect that Master Biao can attract so many people because they are behind it."
Ji Xiaofeng couldn't help but snorted, "What a Lotus Island. The Tianzhu Hemp they trafficked is probably not only from the surrounding provinces..."
As a member of the Feilong Guard, Ji Xiaofeng didn't know much about this sea area, but he was very clear about the situation in the interior of Li Dynasty. According to him, Tianzhu hemp appeared in all provinces of Dali, and its source was from a few places in the south. Saved.
In the final analysis, it is probably this Lotus Island.
Lin Bai asked: "Didn't the imperial court send navy to encircle and suppress?"
Ji Xiaofeng replied: "As far as I know, it happens every year. The imperial court allocates an unknown amount of military pay for this purpose, and the naval camp reports a lot of deaths, but they are always unable to kill them all. Instead, they become more and more rampant. The sea Mangming, maybe they don’t have a better way.”
"Furthermore, seeing that Lianhua Island supports Wang Biao's behavior, I'm afraid that the pirates in this area are more or less related to them."
"Maybe they are using these pirates to fight against the imperial court."
Lin Bai shook his head and said: "It is indeed not easy to suppress bandits in the vast sea, but at least they can prevent Tianzhu Hemp from entering. All water and land are under their control, but what is the result?"
"There is a lot of hemp and hemp in Tianzhu, but they still killed a lot of people. Don't you think it's strange?"
As a Feilong Guard, Ji Xiaofeng naturally understood it immediately.
His pupils shrank, "Sir, you mean that someone in the Navy camp is protecting them?"
This problem is actually very obvious. If Tianzhu Hemp is only a small part, it can be justified. The number is huge and they have entered the inland. Naturally, it is not that simple.
The profits here are too great, and it is normal for someone in the Navy Camp to benefit from it.
Ji Xiaofeng thought for a moment and said, "If that's true, then I'm afraid Caoyun Yamen won't be able to escape either."
The Water Transport Yamen is in charge of water transport. To be precise, it has a greater responsibility than the Naval Battalion, which is more responsible for suppressing bandits.
Jiangnan has developed commerce, and there are too many kinds of money exchanges. It is normal for officials to be corrupt.
Of course, these are not what Lin Bai needs to worry about. What he cares about is Veterans Logistics. There are problems with the Navy Camp and the Water Transport Yamen. So, will the Veterans Logistics matter have something to do with them?
Lin Bai shook his head subconsciously. Although these people were corrupt, they should not be so. He had no grudges with these people.
The little goblin is well versed in the business world and is very generous. She probably gives him a lot of benefits.
The most important thing……
Lin Bai quickly asked: "Is there any weapons manufacturing on Lianhua Island? Or is there iron ore nearby?"
That's right! The most important thing is the source of these weapons. Regardless of whether the Liu family's rebellion is true or not, these weapons are real. Facts have proved that the Liu family was wronged because the same thing happened to Veteran Logistics.
The best way to clear one's name is to find the source of the weapon. As long as the source of the weapon can be found, the truth will naturally come to light.
Of course, it's obviously not easy.
Several people shook their heads.
Lin Bai was not disappointed. If they knew such a hidden thing, it would be suspicious. He immediately asked: "You just said that there are navy troops on Lianhua Island. How are their weapons?"
The dark-faced man's eyes lit up and he said: "They are all very sophisticated. Could it be that they..."
Weapon restrictions are extremely strict. A group of pirates can obtain sophisticated weapons and have no other option but to make them themselves. Therefore, the source of the weapons is most likely from them.
But why do these people deal with Veteran Logistics?
To be precise, it is to deal with myself. I have been in Kyoto for so long and am far away from Aurous Hill. I am not a threat to the people here at all.
Veteran Logistics only sells salt and transports goods, so it shouldn't bother these people.
What is their purpose?
Also, how to find the source of the weapons? Where is Lotus Island?
…
Some people died, but not completely...
