Da Ming Tai Shi

Chapter 534 Cases
Shao Ziheng brought the investigation team of the Three Law Departments to be stationed in the Guangzhou Jinyiwei Command and Envoy Division.

Who makes the security and confidentiality here the best.

After all, even the imperial palace is known as being ventilated from all directions, let alone the Secretary Yamen, the chief envoy of Guangdong.

When Chen Jinghe came here, Shao Ziheng had just finished his day of interrogation.

"What's going on?"

"Did Li Yanzong and Zhu Youjiong recruit anything?"

Facing Chen Jinghe's anxious inquiry, Shao Ziheng was delighted.

"What are you in a hurry for? It's only been two days."

Chen Jinghe forced a smile, but did not dare to express his worries.Fortunately, Shao Ziheng didn't hold back, and after greeting Chen Jinghe to sit down, he talked about the progress of the case.

"Li Yanzong and Zhu Youjiong are not hard-headed. Although we don't have a master like Hu Yidao in the Sanju Department, and we don't need to be served with heavy punishment, we can still solve the case with emotion and reason."

"According to Li Yanzong's testimony, the earliest planting of hibiscus in Dongguan County was instructed by Li Shuhong, the head of the Li family. It has been nearly ten years now. With this alone, the Li family has earned about 300 billion yuan."

"With Li Yanzong's testimony, we can arrest Li Shuhong at any time."

"In addition, according to Zhu Youjiong's confession, the flood of drugs in Guangdong in recent years is indeed the reason behind the South India Company and the Manuel Chamber of Commerce.

However, the opening of Pearl Harbor is not just for the domestic sale of drugs, but more importantly, for evasion of tariffs and large-scale smuggling. "

"Since the currency reform, domestic prices have risen rapidly in the past few years, and the demand for imports has increased. As we all know, our Zhongzhou's foreign imports are dependent on the South India Company and the Arab Chamber of Commerce.

However, due to tariffs, the South India Company and the Manuel Chamber of Commerce did not earn much, so the two joint ventures selected a site in Dongguan County to build the current Pearl Harbor. "

"In addition to smuggling and drug trafficking, there is also slave trading."

"We still have a lot of poor people in Zhongzhou. In the inland provinces, especially in the northwest and southwest, there are a lot of poor households who are so poor that they can't get rid of it. Many people sell their daughters in order to marry their sons.

In the past, it was sold to people in the same village. Of course, the sale is not accurate. In fact, it should be married to exchange for dowry money. "

"A bride price of tens of thousands for a girl."

"But our Zhongzhou daughter is a bit more attractive, but the local nobles in Europa have already paid fifty to one hundred gold coins.

In exchange, it would be several million, and the profit of slave trading was as high as hundreds of times. "

"This is even more terrifying than drug trafficking and smuggling. How many of these capitalists can control themselves in the face of such rewards?"

"In addition to buying yellow-flowered girls, these people also secretly buy prostitutes from brothels in six provinces in the south of the Yangtze River.

Prostitutes are beautiful, and most of them are homeless. Although slavery is abolished in China, prostitutes are no longer goods of brothels, but brothels sell prostitutes, and the government will not investigate unless no one reports to them. "

"Even if someone reported the case and the government investigated it, alas, it was actually just coping with the matter."

"The governments of many provinces are closely related to the Arab Chamber of Commerce. After all, the latter represents investment and political achievements. How can government-business collusion be investigated?"

"Just a prostitute."

After listening to Shao Ziheng's words, Chen Jinghe fell into silence and took a long time to sigh.

"Mencius has called for 3000 years that the people are the most precious, but to this day, the lives of the people are still worthless.

In the collusion between government and businessmen, human life can be exchanged for generous returns in their eyes, and money is the real thing. "

Shao Ziheng also sighed heavily, and then said seriously.

"Don't worry, we will not let any of these corrupt officials and profiteers violate the laws of the country."

"When does uncle plan to attack the Li family?"

"In just these two days, once the evidence is fixed, they will be arrested immediately."

Chen Jinghe hummed: "If uncle is free tomorrow, you might as well send someone secretly to find Chen Jiading, he has a lot of evidence in his hand."

"Chen Jiading?" Shao Ziheng frowned slightly: "Can you believe it?"

"Don't worry, the Chen family has been in contact with the father these years. Many information about Guangdong is not just reported to the father by Jin Yiwei."

"Okay, I'll contact them."

After Shao Ziheng finished speaking, he looked at Chen Jinghe's face and expressed concern.

"What's the matter, I always feel that you are restless."

Facing his own uncle, Chen Jinghe hesitated for a while before expressing his worries.

"It's not because of Yaxi."

"Yaxi? What did she do?"

"She asked me today if I could first release Mingzhu Port as a port to the Medici Chamber of Commerce."

As soon as these words came out, Shao Ziheng also became serious.

"Is the Medici Chamber of Commerce involved in the criminal clues in Pearl Harbor?"

Shao Ziheng shook his head and said: "I haven't found it yet, I have already organized people to conduct a thorough investigation of the entire Pearl Harbor area.

There is no evidence against the Medici Chamber of Commerce, either in physical or personal evidence. It seems that they are only engaged in banking business, not involved in trade, and have no connection with Pearl Harbor. "

"In this case, why does Yaxi care about Pearl Harbor?"

Chen Jinghe raised his confusion: "This girl is the major shareholder of the Medici Chamber of Commerce."

"Unless." Shao Ziheng said after pondering for a while, "Unless someone finds Cosimo."

"It's possible."

Chen Jinghe nodded: "If that's the case, then let's try to handle this case as quickly as possible and make it a solid case.

No one should be let go, Cosimo, a barbarian from the province, will toss some moths, you know Yaxi, she is very spoiled.

In case any young lady loses her temper, I'll come to you to piss off. "

Shao Ziheng suddenly smiled wryly: "Then I'm afraid I'm going to die from a headache."

"Whoever doesn't say it, you can't hit it, you can't scold it."

Chen Jinghe is also helpless: "Father is so fond of Yaxi, my brothers and sisters all refer to the marriage, but Yaxi is the husband's family I found.

No matter what this girl does, the father not only indulges without asking, but also blindly covers up. If it weren't for us two twins, I would doubt whether I am my own. "

"What nonsense nonsense."

Shao Ziheng scolded with a smile: "Both of you brothers and sisters are the king's heart, there is no reason not to love them."

"Anyway, my elder brother has nothing to do with her."

Chen Jinghe spread his hands shamelessly: "If she finds me again later, I will put everything on you and let her make trouble with you."

"Don't, don't, don't." Shao Ziheng waved his hands again and again: "My place is already busy enough, prince, please take pity on your old uncle and me."

"You are not yet fifty, how old are you?"

"But that little bastard of your cousin, he doesn't even marry a wife, and I haven't even hugged a grandson."

The two looked at each other, then laughed.
