Cooking a hot pot meal specially for Fei Long was a special treatment given by Shen Hao to his confidants, and it was also a way for him to win over his subordinates.
Human hearts are made of flesh. Although interests are given priority, in many cases just talking about interests is not enough. Appropriate emotional care can have a better win-win effect.
Being able to make Shen Hao think about it shows that Feilong is now different from what it used to be.
At the beginning, Shen Hao only had a simple idea about Feilong and the black market. He was just preparing to open up the situation in Jingxi, and did not draw up a big blueprint.
But now, because his position continues to rise, his horizons and needs also continue to rise, making Feilong, who was originally like a bug, become the largest black market leader in the old Jing Dynasty. The three words "Brother Feilong" are now in the black market Who doesn’t know?
The coverage of the black market is too broad and complex. It seems like a mess, but in fact it has its own rules.
Feilong is the current black market rule. What he said is much more useful than the law in the black market.
Moreover, the particularity of the black market also made it unavoidable for most of the dirty business in the Jingji Dynasty. Just like the net on the outlet of a pond, the garbage that wants to get through will be filtered by this net.
Whether it is to investigate evil monks or to investigate the nobles or high-ranking officials of the current dynasty, the black market can be a good channel. And so far, except for a limited number of people, no one knows that the person standing behind Brother Feilong in the Black Market is actually the commander of the Black Flag Battalion.
If the black water in Wang Jian's hand is the eyes and ears that Black Flag Camp cannot spread, then the black market is a small notebook in Shen Hao's personal hand, which records many gossips that he can use at any time. .
The difference between the two is obvious if you look closely.
One belongs to the Black Flag Battalion, and the other is controlled by Shen Hao in his personal name. This is also the reason why Zhu Shou and others secretly have positions in the Black Flag Camp, but Feilong has never received such treatment from beginning to end.
It was Shen Hao who did it deliberately.
Now the black market will face a new challenge, and Feilong will once again face the heroes to maintain its leading position in the black market. Shen Hao was still very confident about this. After all, Feilong had a large group of elite members of the Xuanqing Guard in his hands, as well as casual cultivators that Feilong had recruited with a lot of money. Together, these powers cannot be underestimated in the secular world.
If the magical weapons and talismans sent by the Black Flag Battalion are added later, this is equivalent to a disguised increase in the power of Feilong. It seems that even those previously hidden forces would not dare to challenge Feilong openly. Are you following the rules?
Anyone who dared to blatantly gather large amounts of force in the Jingjiu Dynasty was either crazy or stupid. Therefore, the chance of Feilong's failure to obtain Shen Hao's weapons is extremely low.
After returning from Haocheng, Shen Hao went straight home, and in the study room at home, he carefully read the copper strips about the Qin family in Jingbei that Feilong had given him.
After looking at it for a long time, Shen Hao's brows wrinkled, and then he pulled out Jingbei's geography booklet to compare, and his brows furrowed even deeper.
Something is wrong!
Shen Hao's original intention was to find out whether the Qin family had any illegal money and goods activities secretly, and use this as a breakthrough to dig out the dirty things hidden by the Qin family, and give the Qin family a taste of "making trouble everywhere" Bad consequences.
But what he saw after opening the copper bar made Shen Hao suspicious, and after careful consideration, he discovered the problem.
The Qin family has a lot of goods in and out of the black market, but they are very scattered. They also specially choose small and medium-sized intermediaries to cover their identities for import and export.
The strange thing is the types of things that come in and out of the Qin family.
It stands to reason that as a family of Qin, money should be the first priority, followed by hard currencies such as gold and spiritual stones, then magical weapons, exercises or elixirs, and finally rare treasures and antiques.
But this is not the case. In addition to cash, the Qin family's largest input is food and ironware, and its largest output is elixirs and spiritual stones.
This is very interesting. There are some spirit stone veins in Jingbei, but there are not many pan spirit stone veins, and they are all owned by the government. If you want to take advantage of them, it is not Xuan Qingwei's turn to take action, right? It has little to do with the Qin family. But the Qin family produces a lot of spiritual stones in the black market. Where do they come from?
Moreover, it stands to reason that pan spirit stones are half a hard currency. Nowadays, although the control is not as strict as during the war, the demand is still very high. As a noble family, shouldn't you stock up on some? Why do you keep coming out?
The other thing is food. Even though the Qin family has a great business, they won't be short of food, right? The grain on the market is cheap and good, so why go to the black market to buy old grain at high prices? This makes no sense at all. The same goes for ironware.
The elixir is even more strange. When will ordinary aristocratic families be able to sell elixirs?
Shen Hao smelled an unusual smell. There was something hidden under the clean surface of the Qin family that he had never expected.
This thought went on until late at night.
"Dong dong dong. Master Shen."
When Shen Hao heard Hu Tian knocking on the door, he closed the copper bar and let him in.
"Master Shen, you want to fill your stomach with the spicy skewers made by Erfu and the newly arrived fruit wine?" Hu Tian came in with a tray.
Usually it was the three fox girls' job to serve Shen Hao at night. Hu Tian was still awake. Is something wrong?
Shen Hao took the food and started eating, and asked with a smile: "Old Hu, just tell me if you have anything."
Hu Tian seemed a little embarrassed, and he hesitated for a while but didn't get to the point.
Seeing that he was amused, Shen Hao asked again: "Lao Hu, you are already an old man in this family. You should know my temper well. Don't be hesitant. Just say what you want. Are you still afraid that I will eat you?"
When Hu Tian heard this, he stumbled onto the matter. He said that a nephew of his family opened a small winery, and he usually bought some old grains and brewed some cheap bad wine for sale. But he ran into trouble for some unknown reason. The Yamen said that he was helping people sell stolen goods, so they arrested him and awaited trial for conviction.
Hu Tian's family was frightened, but there was no big shot in the family. After all calculations, Hu Tian, who worked as the housekeeper of the Black Flag Camp Commander's Mansion, had the connections, so he went to Hu Tian to ask for help, and Hu Tian But he didn't dare to go around under the banner of Master Shen, so he could only ask Master Shen for help. But Master Shen's prestige was not small, and he didn't know whether Master Shen would be angry at something outside the law, so he spoke uneasily.
"Master Shen, my nephew has been honest and sincere since he was a child. He has also done his duty in the small business, is filial to his family, and has no bad habits outside. I don't know why he was misunderstood this time. The yamen can't ask why. , I really have no choice but to beg you to come here."
After saying that, Hu Tian knelt down and was about to kowtow when he was pulled back by an invisible soft force.
"Okay, write down your nephew's name and the yamen where he is being held. I will help you handle this matter when you go to work tomorrow. Don't be so nervous." Shen Hao didn't care. To him, this was just a small thing, just asking the people from the Black Flag Camp below to come and say hello.
