504 Strange Tea Merchant
"Yes, if you can think like this, you can at least be a qualified city lord. But now you are not the assistant manager of the bank, nor the future lord of the city, but the mother of my children. Small...... By the way, what's my son's name? ”
Hong Tao didn't look worried at all, his hands were busy, and his mouth was not idle. But his brain is not very strong, and he has made the same mistake again, and he forgot his son's name.
"Agares...... The god of crocodiles and the ruler of the Hell East. He has insight into all the mysteries of the world, but the answers he gives are half-truths. Just like you, you're always so unpredictable. ”
Speaking of his son Sidi, he put down the tea for the time being, and described the child's future and those fantasy superpowers with a look of adoration.
The Jews are strange, they don't have surnames, the commoners just find a word for their name, and only those of noble blood can use religious gods and demons as names, and they seem to prefer demons to gods.
“…… If you want me to say how good it is to be called Wang Fa, my son is Wang Fa! It's so majestic, hey, hey, hey......"
Hong Tao silently read his son's name twice, trying to memorize it in his head, and kept complaining. This Nima is still a crocodile, a cold-blooded reptile, synonymous with brainlessness, and can perceive a fart!
"Agareth is healthy, adults don't have to worry, but our finances are not healthy, and adults need to be very worried." The light of his mother's surname shone for less than ten seconds, and Sidi became a worried profiteer again, his brain was full of gold, and his eyes tended to turn yellow.
"Okay, go and call Wang Er. If this official can't even handle this little thing, where will he have the face to find land for you. However, you did the right thing about tea, and you have proved your loyalty with practical actions, and I will keep it in my heart. ”
It seems that if the problem of tea is not solved, even if this female leopard is forcibly pulled into bed by herself, her mouth is not a seductive moan, but shouting tea and fighting with herself.
Then solve it as she wishes, and show her. To deal with people with this kind of character, feelings are never the most effective, you must show strength, crushing strength, the stronger you are, the more docile they are.
Five days later, a postal box car of the Shunfeng Dart Bureau slowly drove into Liangzhou City, which not only contained letters and small parcels, but also sat a special postal escort, Wang Shi in work clothes.
"How did you cut your hair?" When Wang Shi was led to Hong Tao's room by Wang Er, Hong Tao thought that the person who came was really a messenger, and it was not until Wang Shi took off his hat that he saw the new hairstyle of his adopted daughter.
"It's a hindrance, so that not many people can know you even when you're walking down the street, and I hate the feeling of being recognized."
The temperature in Wang Shiyi's mouth room immediately dropped several degrees, and her voice was soft and gentle, but there was a strange smell of how it sounded, as if it came from the corner of the basement.
"If I don't recognize you one day, I'll shoot you with a crossbow!" This child is completely crooked, Hong Tao has given up the efforts of treatment, what is the love, I hope there will be a young man in the future to make her normal.
"Hehehehe, did the officials come to me to ask about tea?" Wang Shi is more difficult to deal with than Wang Er, she has learned her skills of relying on her face to perfection, the more angry you are, the more proud she becomes, and the more you avoid her, the more you make do with you.
"Go and go, how old are you and still here, didn't Mrs. Ji give you a lesson!" Facing his adopted daughter who was about to hang on his arm, Hong Tao could only blast her away like a fly, and he had to pay attention to Tao and technique.
"Yes, I took detailed notes every time. Mrs. Ji spoke very well and did me a great favor. I was planning to pick some good-looking girls from the POW camps and train them to deal with men, but I didn't know if it would work. Why don't the officials also tell their children what kind of women are most easily controlled by men? ”
Not to mention that Fu Ji is okay, as soon as he talked about this topic, Wang Shi did not retreat but advanced, and posted it again, not only his body was twisting slightly, but there was electricity in his eyes.
"Believe it or not, I'll send you back to the Horse Mansion and let Mama Wang give you a special training!" When it was over, Fu Ji gave them a lecture on physiology and hygiene, and as a result, Wang Shi's talent in this area was awakened again. Now she's using herself as an experimental subject, trying to prove that she hasn't learned it properly.
“…… If you don't teach, you won't teach, Mrs. Ji said, there are always times when men are weak, hum! ”
When Wang Shiyi saw that the experiment failed, he immediately changed back to the original state, and his mouth was not quite convinced. In her opinion, seducing other men is not successful, and she must seduce her adoptive father and teacher to learn her skills.
"Bang Bang Bang...... Let's get down to business, don't ask me what I'm looking for you for, I don't know what the officials want to ask, they have to go back to the Horse Mansion! Hong Tao couldn't talk to Wang Shi on this issue any longer, and knocked the table, trying to knock back the majesty.
"I have checked and found that there are many merchants who come to Huangzhou to sell tea, but there are five of the most important ones, and their trafficking accounts for the annual tea sales
Seventy percent more. ”
Wang Shi saw that his adoptive father was impatient, so he immediately sat up straight, reached out and took out a crumpled piece of paper from his belt, smoothed it with his hand before sending it to Hong Tao. Above is the origin, composition and background relationship of several caravans, and thousands of words are written freely.
"How do you know I'm going to check on them?" Hong Tao was a little strange, even if Sidi informed her for the first time, it was only more than a month ago, how could she have made the material so detailed.
"The child didn't know that these caravans had hired a convoy from the Shunfeng Dart Bureau to escort the delivery money, and they all had good female prostitutes in the Fengxue Building. This information is counted once a month, and the child only needs to copy the records. Official, do you think those female prostitutes are more likely to seduce men, and can children learn from them? ”
Wang Shizhen is worthy of love and talent, and this intelligence leader is no worse than Sima Guang, who revised the general knowledge of governance, and the workload is even greater. Just by the tailwind dart game, she has almost monitored more than half of the mainland businessmen who come and go to Huangzhou.
"If you let me know that you are going to study with a prostitute, I will break your dog's legs! Keep talking! Hong Tao just wanted to praise her for her serious work, but she was bored by the latter sentence.
“…… These five firms were nothing to be aware of, they were all very well-behaved and bought and sold fairly. However, after the second sister said about the tea, I deliberately checked it carefully and found that something was wrong. You see, this is the record of them hiring a dart bureau to escort the money, and each time they went to two places to make the payment, one in the south of the western capital and one in the north of Chang'an. I don't know who these two houses are, they don't let the dart master in, and the people who come out to contact him are silent. However, looking at the regulation of the house, the main family must have some status in the court, and it is not an ordinary businessman and wealthy household. ”
At this time, Wang Shi put his hand into the waistband of his trousers again, took out a crumpled piece of paper again, and smoothed it with both hands again and sent it to Hong Tao's eyes, on which were the records of the dart game and the approximate location map of the two houses.
"Can you bring a leather bag or something in the future, don't hide important things on your body, what if you lose them?" Hong Tao felt that the two pieces of paper in front of him still carried Wang Shi's body temperature, how awkward it was.
"I'm just the bookkeeper of the dart game, and I'm afraid it's not suitable to carry a leather bag. But the boy came up with a solution, you see, I sewed a bag inside my pants, and put all the important things in it. ”
Wang Shi felt that his adoptive father was a little unfamiliar with the nature of secret work, so he had to hide his identity first, and he couldn't do things that didn't conform to his identity, such as carrying a leather bag all day long in a small accounting room.
It was dressed as a rich man and a shopkeeper, and in order to prove to his adoptive father that he was not careless, he pulled the waistband of his pants to show off his invention.
"Shhh...... Pull on pull on! Do you think all five of them belong to two families? A fifteen-year-old girl pulled open the waistband of her pants to reveal her small belly, which really made Hong Tao unable to look directly, so she quickly lowered her head and pretended to read the documents.
"I don't know, but I sent someone to check, and I've been gone for more than half a month, so I guess I'll be back soon." In addition, if the official thinks it is appropriate, I can take back one of the shopkeepers in the caravan and ask him for clarification, presumably he should know more. ”
"Do you know what kind of goods they were trafficking in when they returned...... Stop, turn your back and take it, lift your pants and turn around! ”
As a last resort, Hong Tao didn't want Wang Shi to do such a dangerous thing. As long as you understand the situation of these five caravans from the side, you can basically make a judgment.
"They only trafficked two kinds of goods, candles and farm tools, and there weren't too many of them. There were twenty or thirty mules and horses each time they came, and four or five when they returned, and the valuables were escorted separately by the dart board. But there are quite a few caravans doing this, so it shouldn't be an anomaly, right? ”
This time, Wang Shi didn't put his hand into the waistband of his trousers, but just lifted the belt with his hand. But Hong Tao overreacted a little, and Wang Shi was a little confused, so he turned around and turned back.
"Alright, let's go back. These five firms continue to investigate, but don't arrest people casually, let alone go outside Huangzhou to act recklessly. Remember, the officials can't protect you if you leave Huangzhou, understand? ”
After Hong Tao wanted to know the basics, more than half of these five businesses may have come for a purpose, not just to sell tea.
The trafficking of tea is certainly profitable, but the source of such a large amount of trafficking is a big problem. Forbidden goods, this is not a joke, and it is not impossible for private individuals to purchase and resell from the government, but without a strong background relationship, they will definitely not be able to do such a quantity.
And businessmen are greedy, they pay attention to efficiency. Since I came to Huangzhou once and the goods were sold, how could I only buy some goods with very low prices and low profits and ship them back?
Even if you don't want to transport too many goods back to the mainland, you will pick goods with high unit price and high profits. This is equivalent to a taxi running a long way, and the return trip is the same as not pulling people, half a trip is equal to running in vain, and it is taboo to do business.
