Profound Pure Guard

Chapter 202: Restlessness

With doubts in his mind, Shen Hao turned his head and went to the library. There was a lot of information about Nanban.

  The so-called Nanban is actually dozens of tribal associations in a vast area in the south of Zhuohuoguan and west of the treasure sea. It used to be known as the Black Stone King Court, but now that it is not reorganized after being broken up by the old Jing Dynasty, it is called Nanban.

   Although there is a word "barbarian" in the title, it does not mean that the opposite is the uncivilized barbarians. On the contrary, Nanbarb's spiritual civilization is also extremely developed, and what is lacking is just the standard of living of ordinary people. For example, there are the most fur clothes in the southern barbarian realm, and the craftsmanship is crude. It is just sewing the fur together to make a garment, not the style.

   In addition, there is a lack of pig iron in the Nanban area, and most people in Nanban can't even use pots, and most of them use clay pottery to cook food. Kitchen knives are even scarce, and they usually chop them with an axe. And not every household in a tribe has an axe, and it must be used or owned by the public.

   So the food in Nanban is all crude style. There is no such condition if you want to be fine.

   In addition, there are many barbarians in the southern barbaric realm, including fox, elephant, wolf, cat...

   I looked at the pictures on the data, and they were all humanoids but with obvious beasts. Shen Hao always felt that it would be more appropriate to call it "Beast" instead of "Nanman".

  According to the data, Nanban was quite strong during the time when he gathered to form the Blackstone King's Court. After being broken up, he became a mermaid. Each tribe is very divided, but they can always be self-sufficient by nomadic, hunting, and farming.

   That is to say, Nanban will not be short of food under normal circumstances, unless it is a disaster.

   Has Nanban been hit by a disaster recently?

   Shen Hao rummaged through all recent official newspapers, but found nothing about the disaster in Nanban.

   Didn't suffer a disaster, wouldn't those smugglers who transported a large amount of grain to Nanban's site lose their lives?

  The messages contradict each other. It can only show that there are still key areas that have not been mastered.

   Smugglers can't do stupid things, since they have been transported to Nanban with great effort, they can definitely be sold. Although Nanban hadn't suffered a disaster, there must be a lot of food needed for another reason. Goods will only be provided when there is demand on one side and the other side will become business when they come and go.

   Although Shen Hao has no way of knowing about Nanban's matters, but he can know about matters involving the black market in the Jingxi realm as long as he wants to know.

   Therefore, in the follow-up information sent by the "Impermanence" department, the buyers and sellers of the previous large-scale smuggling have been found out clearly. Among them, the three pieces of grain, pig iron, and pan-ling stone were not beyond Shen Hao's expectation. They were all led by government-run shops.

   The grain is extracted from the official warehouse, and the excuses are also easy to find. The phrase "depletion of old grain" can exchange a lot of new grain from it every year.

   And it’s easier to deduct minerals like pig iron and animite. You only need to report the actual output lower, then the actual output will be much higher than the reported, and the extra part can be disposed of privately.

   In the final analysis, the methods of these official shops and the seizure of assets by Xuan Qingwei's people are actually the same way. If you insist on making a difference, it might be that Xuan Qingwei's people are pursuing their own pockets, and these government-run people not only have their own pockets, but may also benefit the country's enemies.

  Pig iron can be used to forge kitchen knives and farm tools, and naturally it can also be used to forge weapon armor.

  Panling Stone is the driving force of middle-low grade magical artifacts, and it is the foundation that allows ordinary people to temporarily possess the abilities of monks through magical artifacts.

  As for food, generally self-sufficient places can handle small disasters by themselves. Unless there is a major famine, they will not need external food transportation. But there is one exception, and that is the rationing of grain. Why don't you buy food? It can be said to be dealing with a major disaster just in case, or it may be preparing for a major military operation.

   The three are in one, and the situation in Nanban is worth studying.

   Shen Hao began to agitate inexplicably. He hasn't felt this way for a long time since the previous vote from the Wen family.

   But for this kind of thing, the hands of a Hundred Household Officer in the Black Flag Camp in Fengri City were not so long. If you want to investigate and keep things within your control, you must first take your gaze back from Nanban and dig deep into the official shops involved in these large-scale smuggling cases.

   Shen Hao thought for a while, and ordered to the attendant outside the door: "Call Wang Yiming."

   Not long after, Wang Yiming knocked on the door to come in, and stood honestly in front of Shen Hao.

   "I wonder what the lord has to order?"

   "Is there a recent report of copper cabinets mentioning Tukui City official warehouse, Tancheng Rongshan Mine, and Licheng Xiaoshan Iron Furnace?"

  The copper cabinet has now become an important reporting channel in all cities within Fengri City's jurisdiction. This is the only way ordinary people can directly contact Xuan Qingwei. Since Shen Hao took office as one of the hundred households in Heiqiying, Fengri City, this channel has changed from "virtually apparent" to "practically usable". Now Zhucheng, like Licheng at the beginning, screens and screens the report letters in the copper cabinet. The investigation office is included in the routine tasks.

The copper cabinets were actually handled and managed by Wang Yiming when Chen Yiyun was still in the Qianhu Office. Shen Hao did not adjust Wang Yiming's authority after taking office. Therefore, the report letters identified by the copper cabinets in various places were finally summarized in the Qianhu Office. When Heiqiying, Wang Yiming will make the final judgment.

   Even Wang Yiming thought that the first thing Shen Hao asked about after taking office was the copper cabinet, but until now, this inquiry has come late.

Thinking about it~www.wuxiahere.com~ Wang Yiming didn't hesitate for a long time, nodded and said: "My lord, these three places you mentioned are all important government-run shops in the Fengri City area. Although they are not powerful, they have plenty of oil and water. Therefore, they are indispensable for every report of the copper cabinet.

   The most recent one was eight days ago. "

   Shen Hao nodded, which was almost as he expected. Someone has more right and wrong places, and the poorer the place, the calmer the waves.

   "Have you checked?"

   "Yes. But only the Licheng Heiqi Camp has checked before. I remember that the chief officer of Xiaoshan Iron Furnace Village was reported to have forced his subordinates to accompany him many times.

   "What?!" Shen Hao thought he had heard it wrong.

   Wang Yiming had to repeat it again. He also thought it was weird at first, and his reaction was similar to Shen Hao's.

   "Hey, have you checked this matter?"

   "The result of the verification is fictitious. It was not mentioned in the report on the specific investigation process."

   "Who in Licheng took over this case?"

   "B flag."

   "That's Zhang Lao? Go to Ling Tiao, let Zhang Lao and Chen Tianwen come to see me tomorrow morning, and bring the dossier about Xiaoshan Tieluo Village."

   "Yes, the subordinates will inform immediately." Wang Yiming frowned when he walked out of Shen Hao's office. He couldn't understand his Shangfeng anymore. Only offended the local yamen of Fengri City. Are you now ready to start working on the government-run shops? Is it so unscrupulous?
