Chapter 667: Tide Reversal
Lorisi is only a second-level nobleman, and in a place like the north, where the dragon and the tiger are hidden, he doesn't have much influence at all.
His Loda family was a fiefdom in the city of Nimanda, and only ran a small transportation company, whose main business was to work with the Capet family's steel mills, but also to take small orders.
Faced with Judge Weilantai's questioning, Lorisi was already confused.
"Within the last 10 days..... There are many people who have come to me, including card friends, business customers, and distant relatives, too many. ”
Seeing Lorisi's frightened look, Willante lowered his voice.
"Lorisi, maybe I didn't ask clearly, then I'll ask again, within 10 days, have any foreigners approached you."
"Outside... Foreigner? ”
Wei Lantai's eyes were compelling.
"My question is already clear, Lorisi, if you really don't know what I'm talking about, then just say you don't know, but if you know who the person I'm asking is, but you deliberately prevaricate, then you should be very clear about the consequences."
Facing the attention of the bigwigs in the courtroom, the huge sense of oppression made Lorisi a little breathless, and the hesitation only lasted for a second, and then he fell to his knees with a thud.
"I said, I said, I know what you're asking, but... It has nothing to do with me, I didn't say yes at all. ”
"If you say yes or not, that's an afterword, I want you to say it now, who is the person who came to you."
"It's... I'm also not sure about the authenticity of that person's identity. ”
"Stand up and say your name directly."
Lorisi stood up tremblingly and glanced at Chief Yarlin and Chief Frey beside her.
Then, he replied.
"The man was handsome, he was a big man, he claimed to be from Sammy, and he said... He is the chairman of the Sami Snow Emperor Group, and his name is Inan Xue. ”
During the adjournment of the court, the court had already made relevant preparations, and Wellantai took out a photo and pointed it at Lorisi.
"It's not the person in the photo."
Lorisi looked up and replied immediately.
"That's right, it's this one!"
....
Xia Feng's angle at this time is just right to see this photo.
The person in the photo is delicate and cold, but there is a faint arrogance between the eyebrows, this person who looks like an iceberg beauty is Yinan Xue!
...
After confirming that it was the same person, Lorisi explained in a panic.
"Lord Weilantai, Your Royal Highness the Princess, this matter has nothing to do with me, I didn't know this person before, he took the initiative to come to me and gave me a lot of money, I... I didn't agree...."
"Shut up!"
Instead of continuing to ask, Willante looked at the Imperial Treasurer, Mirren, who was standing next to him.
"Mistress Mirren, do you know this person?"
Mirren bowed his head slightly calmly.
"I know that this person actually came to my door about a week ago, and I haven't had time to report this matter to Chief Yarlin and the Inspectorate."
Including Wei Lantai, the three collegial judges glanced at each other in unison.
At this time, Princess Verin, who had never spoken, took the initiative to ask for the first time.
"Miren-sama, what is this man named Inan Xue looking for you?"
Mirren replied respectfully.
"That's right, this person claims to be the chairman of Sami Xuedi Group, in fact, I know a little bit about his identity, Yi Nanxue, this person, is very famous."
"And then."
"And then...."
Mirren then recounted in detail Inan Xue's intentions to come to the door.
...
Mirren said that Inan Xue suddenly came to the door one day, and after identifying himself, he wanted to cooperate with him in a business.
Mirren is the treasurer of the empire, and has the highest authority over the treasury, not only money, food, and supplies, but also the most precious source stone reserves.
With his authority, if he wanted to take something out of the treasury, no one under him would dare to ask about it, because the only superior to Millen was the chief executive, Yarlin.
Victoria is one of the world's great powers, and in order to prepare for the consumption of various source stone technologies and the city-state, the amount of source stone reserves in the treasury is very large.
With such a huge base, if Mirren took one or two by himself, it would not be a problem, and he could mix it up with reserve depletion and statistical errors, but if the amount he secretly appropriated exceeded a certain amount, there would be a problem.
Of course, exposing and holding him accountable is only one aspect, and the most important thing is that he has embezzled too many source stones, and there is no place to sell them.
Source stone smuggling is a non-complex black industry chain, not as long as there is a source stone to sell, sales channels, reputation trust, security assurance, force support, are indispensable.
If you can't do that, you can't stand on the road and shout.
And the arrival of Inan Xue this time, to put it bluntly, is to provide sales channels and a series of safeguard measures for the financial manager Mirren.
Yi Nanxue said that he has a batch of large international orders, the quantity is 5,000 pieces, the price is much higher than the black market retail, customers are not short of money at all, and the reputation is also guaranteed.
And the reason why the customer is not bad for money is because the customer is the government of Sargon.
.....
Yi Nanxue said that this is not the first cooperation between the Snow Emperor Group and the Sargon government, just 3 months ago, he just completed an order for 3,000 source stones, the whole process is safe, and the money is a lot.
Inan Xue said that the last cooperation had emptied the source stone reserves of the Snow Emperor Group, so this time, he could only come to Victoria to find someone to work with, hoping to have a cross-border linkage with Mirren.
As long as this business is done, Mirren can leave Victoria with a huge amount of money that will not be used up in ten lifetimes, and find a random seaside independent city-state to enjoy the rest of his life.
...
Inan Xue drew a sweet flatbread for Miren, but Mirren was able to sit in this position now, and he knew better than anyone which was lighter and which was heavier.
Using his authority to embezzle 5,000 Source Stones from the treasury? I was kicked in the head by a donkey.
Mirren refused Inanxue's cooperation at that time, and said that he could pretend that he didn't hear it, and if he continued to pester, he would notify the Supervision Office to arrest someone.
Mirren knew the status of the Snow Emperor Group in Sammy, so he didn't dare to turn his face directly, he just wanted to send away this dangerous man who looked like a flower and jade, but had a heart like a jackal, tiger and leopard.
Before leaving, Yi Nanxue said in a heartfelt manner that he had already contacted the partner in charge of transportation in Victoria, and hoped that Mirren would think about it again, and if he figured it out, he could call him at any time.
....
Inside the courtroom.
After listening to Mirren's account, led by Frei and Capewamy, along with the entire Inspectorate camp, they were dumbfounded.
Willante nodded, and asked the trembling Lorisi.
"Lorisi, you can tell me now what the hell is going on with Inan Snow looking for you."
Lorisi was about to cry.
"I... I didn't get involved in anything, that Inan Xue suddenly came to the door and said that he wanted me to help him transport things, I asked him what he was transporting, and he leaned into my ear and said.... It was said that it was the finished source stone, 5,000, which almost scared me out of heart disease at that time. ”
