Duan Wenjun always felt that there would not always be such coincidences in the world.
Many times, the so-called coincidences and accidents are just the result of the guidance of some well-intentioned people.
Or it could be said that some people with ulterior motives did it on purpose.
Lin Jinglei was framed, and two contracts written by him appeared out of thin air; the Lintuo master invited by Lin Nanzhun suddenly disappeared at this time...
Duan Wenjun doesn't think this is definitely a coincidence, but it's not necessarily a coincidence either.
He looked at Mao San and said, "Third brother, since everyone Lin is doing things for us, we have to take care of this matter."
"Understood! I have sent people to Yunxiao City to inquire, but they didn't get much. Now I'm looking for people to investigate along the way." Mao San nodded solemnly. "It's just that our spy's ability is limited. The news from Linjun is not How easy it is to find out."
Mao San, arrangements have been made.
This is what Duan Wenjun admires most about him.
Mao San can always think of his own ideas in advance and make some arrangements in advance.
This is the most important thinking for an intelligence leader.
Duan Wenjun nodded when he heard this, "Is he from Yunxiao City?"
Mao San nodded, and then continued.
Some of them were told to him by Lin Nanzhun, and some were brought back by spy agents.
Lin Nanzhun's friend is called Xiao Daqian, who is quite famous in Jingzhou.
In Lin Nanzhun's words, Xiao Daqian's ability to imitate Lintuo was such that he could write exactly the same text just by looking at it.
If he comes to develop the calligraphy of ancient people, he will definitely be able to make it look like the real thing.
Although Xiao Daqian was born and raised in Yunxiao City, there was an old house there, but he didn't go back very often, and his family didn't live here. There was only an old housekeeper helping him take care of it.
The reason why Mao San went to Yunxiao City to inquire was because Lin Nanzhun said that when Xiao Daqian wrote back to him, he said that he was going back to his old home, and then he came to Wangjiang County smoothly, and he expected to arrive five days ago.
Lin Nanzhun has been cooperating with Xiao Daqian for more than ten years.
Although his whereabouts are unpredictable, he is a person who attaches great importance to punctuality and keeping appointments.
After all these years, I have never been late.
Last year, they collaborated once in Kyoto.
At that time, Xiao Daqian was seriously ill and his legs and feet were inconvenient, but he still hired a carriage and pulled him to arrive on time.
Being able to be chosen by Lin Nan and being able to partner with him for so many years is not only because of Xiao Daqian's ability, but also because of his reliability.
Yunxiao City is in Yunxiao County, where the capital of Jingzhou is located, but it is not far from Lingxiao City, only about three days' journey.
After hearing what Lin Nanzhun said, Mao San immediately sent people to Yunxiao City.
Working hard, the news came just five days after the trip.
Xiao Daqian returned to Yunxiao City ten days ago, and then went north to Lingxiao County.
It stands to reason that if there had not been an accident on the road, we should have arrived in Wangjiang County ahead of time.
Therefore, Mao San sent people to inquire along the way, but has not received any news back yet.
To be on the safe side, Mao San also sent two groups of people. One group was led by Luo Dabian and a few people to search openly; the other group was sent by spy masters to search secretly.
"Third brother, mobilize all the people in Wangjiang County. Maybe Xiao Daqian has arrived in Wangjiang." Duan Wenjun frowned. "Tomorrow you will send someone to the house to collect some silver coins. I Again, there is no need to save money where money should be spent, I need to know the whereabouts of Xiao Daqian within two days."
"Okay! Since the young master is short on time, I will spend some money." Mao San nodded.
Duan Wenjun didn't know what method Mao San was talking about to spend money, but he didn't ask any more, and then looked at him and said, "Third brother, Baldy Li, the owner of our gambling house in the south of the city, how much do you know about him?"
"Young master, the Lin family has found you, right?" Mao San frowned, "I've also heard about Baldy Li suing Lin Jinglei, but I'm afraid it won't be easy to handle."
"Oh? How do you say this?" Duan Wenjun was stunned when he heard this.
Obviously, Mao San must know some inside information.
"On the first night when County Magistrate Guanxing came to Wangjiang County, he went to Baldy Li's Ruyi Gambling House." Mao San frowned, "And he lost a lot of money, so Baldy Li invited him to the back room. .”
"So, you think Baldy Li has some leverage over Guan Xing, so..." Duan Wenjun couldn't help but frown.
"I thought that was the case at first." Mao San shook his head, "But after I checked Baldy Li, I no longer thought so."
Seeing the surprise on Duan Wenjun's face, Mao San spoke again, "Bald Li is a member of the Guan family. Moreover, I am afraid that he came to Wangjiang under the instructions of the Guan family."
As soon as these words came out, Duan Wenjun was slightly surprised.
He originally thought that Guanxing had just reached some agreement with Baldy Li, or that Guanxing had used his status as county magistrate to find a way to win over or subdue Baldy Li.
Judging from the information provided by Mao San at this moment, I am afraid that the matter is far more than that.
It has been almost ten years since Baldy Li opened a gambling house in the south of Wangjiang City. If he came to Wangjiang under the instructions of the Guan family, wouldn't it mean that the Guan family had their eyes on Wangjiang ten years ago?
If this is the case, then it is probably not a coincidence that Guanxing came to Wangjiang to serve as the county magistrate.
So, why would the Guan family focus on a small place like Wangjiang?
Thinking of this, a deep uneasiness suddenly surged in his heart.
Mao San did not notice anything strange about Duan Wenjun, but continued to talk about the information he had investigated about Baldy Li.
Baldy Li, whose real name is Li Youfa.
The reason why people call him Baldy Li is not because he is really bald, but because of a habit he has in the gambling house.
If someone has lost everything and still wants to default on the debt, whether it is a rich man or a neighborhood gangster, he will never show mercy. He will definitely remove all the clothes from the person's body, then shave his head and throw it out.
It is also for this reason that he has become a ruthless character in Wangjiang.
In his gambling house, he had dozens of thugs watching over the casino, and they all looked vicious.
Moreover, he had a close relationship with many gangsters on the street. When Mao San and others were hanging out on the street, they had to call him Bald Brother.
In the entire Wangjiang City, there were few people who dared to mess with him.
Even the former county magistrate Zhang Suxing was very afraid of him.
Of course, Baldy Li was quite sensible. He usually only bullied ordinary people or wealthy small families, and did not provoke people like the Duan family and the Lin family.
However, Baldy Li's group of thugs at Ruyi Gambling House were not only fierce, Baldy Li himself was also very skilled.
It is said that Baldy Li was once a deputy general in the northern frontier army, and his cultivation level was in the middle of the first-class level.
Because he has been on the battlefield many times, he has integrated the characteristics of a soldier and a Jianghu man. He is decisive in killing and attaches great importance to friendship, which makes the people below very convinced.
Just more than ten years ago, for unknown reasons, he suddenly left the military camp and joined the Guan family...
