Hanina's serious words attracted the other three, and every word she spat out was a little more vibrating in Peidi's heart. However, as a king, the more he had to remain calm at such times, so he could only hide the shock in his heart with a contemplative expression.

Under the watchful eyes of the trio, Hanina continued:

But Director Don Wright did not stop investigating this case, he set up a special investigation team to be stationed in Balan Town, and investigated the dark web in Balan Town in a more secretive way... In the end, he found out that the key to this dark web was actually in the northern official road. Hanina had a slight sigh on her face, "Smugglers will bring their smuggled goods into Balan by fishing boats in the waters north of Balan Town to evade customs duties, and these goods will not be distributed in Balan..."

"They transported the goods to the north, and the officials separated them?" said Pedy, who was looking through the papers, and looked up at Hannina in question.

Hanina immediately nodded and said, "Yes, these people are very smart, they run many farms, but most of their farms are not profitable, every time they transport smuggled goods to the official roads in the north for distribution under the pretext of selling livestock..."

"After the trade restructuring, agricultural products, including livestock trade, enjoy a certain degree of tax exemption. Sir Bipp could not help but remind the others present, and after saying that, he glanced at the king's position.

When Hanina heard Sir Bipp's words, she immediately looked at the old sir, nodded in agreement, and then looked at the king, and said, "Yes, this is how they have escaped the pursuit of the customs again and again. This is also the most fundamental reason why the customs know that someone is smuggling, but they can't find evidence of smuggling. ”

Sir Bipp couldn't help but cough lightly twice when Baron Hannina said this, Hannina subconsciously closed the most, and the others also looked at the old sir.

"Because of the reform of commercial trade, and in order to stimulate more commercial trade, we exempted the various gates within the kingdom from taxes, and at the same time abolished the inspection system at the gates... This system does stimulate our commercial trade to a certain extent, but it also provides natural conditions for smugglers. ”

Bipp commented in the tone of a bystander after everyone had looked at him.

But I don't think there's anything wrong with this measure of the Kingdom. Morinda immediately said: "The opening of official roads can not only allow a large number of goods to circulate to remote villages and increase countless employment opportunities, but also allow the currency of the kingdom and the krona in the hands of merchants to circulate in the kingdom, and the increased tax revenue is not comparable to the establishment of a few checkpoints." ”

"I am not denying the Kingdom measure. Sir Bipp hastened to explain, for the measure was made by none other than the King himself, and he said in an aggravated tone: "I just want to say that we lack the necessary means of supervision. ”

"Any system needs a process to improve. Peddy glanced at Sir Bipp, "This matter should be within the purview of the Prime Minister's Government, and you should come up with a workable plan as soon as possible... However, we are not gathered here today to talk about this. ”

"What do you think about Sir Marat's assassination?" said Pedi, closing the investigation report from the police station.

Hanina preemptively said, "I suggest keeping a low profile..."

"How low-key?" Ser Bipp immediately interrupted Hanina, "Sir Marat is the highest minister of affairs sent to the local area by the Prime Minister's government, and his rank is equal to that of the highest ministers of the ministries, and his assassination will surely cause a stir within the kingdom... Wait, but in half a day, the nobles will run around each other like a fried pot..."

The old knight sighed, looked around to the left and right, and continued: "More importantly, the position of the highest minister of Harrence Province vacated after Sir Marat's death will make it even more important for officials at all levels who are capable of participating in the competition to put on a good show!"

The old orc Morinda "chirped" the cigar in his mouth with a solemn expression, "None of this is important, the key thing is that the government restructuring of Harrence Province needs to be taken over, otherwise the provincial government and municipal governments at all levels that have just been formed will soon collapse." ”

"Sir Fred, who is now in charge of the Harrance Provincial Government, is capable of doing so, but he lacks the experience to manage government affairs, let alone such an important Harrance Province!" Sir Bipp nodded and said to Morinda at the same time, "The Supreme Minister of Harrence Province must be selected within three days at the latest. ”

"What do you think of Baron Aemond of the Herion?" Peddy looked at Sir Bipp, his tone full of inquiry, but the decisive expression on his face indicated that he had made a decision.

"Your Majesty!" said Baron Hannina, before Sir Bipp could speak, "Now Harrence Territory not only needs to face the restructuring of the government, but more importantly, to investigate the smuggling cases on the official roads in the north. ”

"Only a good social environment is a prerequisite for investigating this smuggling case. Pedi shrugged.

"But Baron Aemond," Hannina's words were a little uncertain, "he had a close relationship with the major chambers of commerce in the king before, and although he later changed and severed his contact with these people, but..."

"I'm sure Baron Aemond has made the right choice as he did last time!" said Peddy, snuffing out the cigar in his ashtray to interrupt what Baron Hanina was about to say, and then said, "Announce that Seke-Marat died because he fell off his horse and broke his back, and the police department secretly arrested some people for a show." ”

"Your Majesty!" Hannina didn't expect this to happen.

"Do you think there's a way for the police department to continue taking on this case now?" Pedi tapped his fingers rhythmically on the armrest of the couch to ease his frustration, "I'll let Herman, the castle governor, take over the case... Later, you submit a detailed report of the case files and all that Sir Marat had done in the three days prior to his assassination. ”

Hanina did not answer the king's order at the first time, she straightened her waist and put her hands on her knees, clutching the wide trouser legs of the police uniform, and scratching the hot and smooth trouser legs full of folds.

"It's really not appropriate for the police department to take on this case now. Morinda broke the silence, "But that doesn't mean that this case will end like this, it is the right thing to do with Chief Herman taking over this case, and I believe he will handle the next issues." ”

"From what we know so far, there are certainly no longer a few high-level government officials involved in smuggling cases within the kingdom, or the top officials of certain departments are the direct beneficiaries of them. "Sir Bipp spoke boldly this time, which was inconsistent with the cautious style he had always maintained. Moreover, the 'supreme officer' to whom he was referring in his words is also very obvious.

Pedy glanced at Sir Bipp in surprise, and he instantly understood that he was trying to name the so-called 'Supreme Commander'.

"The government will first follow my initial order and let Baron Aemond, who is led by Herynn, take office immediately... No, let Baron Aemond report to Crewe first, I need to talk to him personally. Pedy chose to ignore Sir Bipp's words.

When Morinda heard the king's words, he looked at the other two, and saw that they all looked like they wanted to speak and stopped, but they just didn't speak. "Your Majesty, I suggest that Baron Aemond take office immediately, otherwise the situation in the province of Harrence will become uncontrollable!" the old orc voiced the worries in the hearts of the two.

"How chaotic can it be?" Pei Di seemed to be very indifferent in his words, but those who were familiar with him knew that the more he suppressed the killing intent in his heart, the more people he would kill!

"There are 10,000 garrisons and 20,000 back militia in Harrence Province, who will mess up?

Pedi stood up and walked past the three of them, walked over to the window and pushed it open, letting the heat outside and the cold air in the room wash back and forth over him.

"I wish they could mess up, so I have a good reason..."

The king's words made the three ministers subconsciously stand up and bow down to show their humility.

"Ordered... The second son of Seke-Marat was canonized as the Earl of the Kingdom, and he was appointed as the commander of the Harrens City Garrison Corps, and the former Harrens City Garrison Commander was transferred to the military headquarters as the first staff officer of the Operations Division. ”

"In addition, Baron Aemond has made meritorious contributions to the governance of Herion, canonized as a hereditary marquis of the court, and immediately returned to Crewe City to report on his duties!"

"Do you understand?"

"Yes, Your Majesty!" replied Sir Bipp at once.

"Good!," Pedi said, climbing on the window edge, "and if you understand, let's all go out first." ”

...

Outside the King's office, Baron Hannina did not leave in a hurry after the meeting as usual, she entered the office of the national situation with a solemn expression, and dismissed all the low-level officials in all the offices.

Soon after, the old orc, Morinda Morinda, who was not very easy to walk, walked slowly and talked to Sir Bipp beside him, and then entered the office.

The two of them were a little surprised to see Hanina in the office, after all, this kingdom intelligence specialist rarely appeared in this office, let alone communicated with other ministers.

"What is your majesty going to do?" asked Hanina directly.

"Obviously, Your Majesty wants to investigate this dark web all over the kingdom himself!" said Sir Bipp, sitting beside his desk, casually flipping through the papers.

"I don't doubt Your Majesty's determination, but..."

"I think it's right to hand over this matter to Your Majesty, don't forget that Your Majesty has the most powerful Chamber of Commerce in the entire continent in his hands!" Morinda leaned back on a chair and wiped the sweat on his forehead from the hot weather with a roll of white towels, "If Your Majesty uses the power of the Royal Chamber of Commerce, he can effortlessly destroy any commercial trade within the kingdom, not to mention..."

Baron Hanina spread her hands and whispered, "But... What if the royal chamber of commerce is actually the compiler of this dark web?"

Morinda said with a calm face: "You'd better pray that this is just your guess, otherwise with Your Majesty's usual style, the entire Kru City will be bleeding!"

When Sir Bipp heard this, he immediately answered, "I believe that most of the people in charge of the Royal Chamber of Commerce will not be involved in smuggling. ”

Hanina grasped the other meaning of Sir Bipp's words and said bluntly: "Mostly, that means that there are still some people who will participate in the smuggling ranks, regardless of their royal status?"

"It's not for you and me to worry about it, and we shouldn't keep our eyes on Kawalburg. Sir Bipp shook his head, "Especially the police department, the last thing you should look at is at Kavalburg... Your Majesty has given you power, not to deal with his relatives!"

"But among these relatives there are..."

"Baron, let that be the end of these words!" said Sir Bipp, staring at Hannina, in a somewhat cold tone, "you should still target the unexpected people of Kawalburg." ”

"You mean Sir Edwin?" Hannina was always so direct.

"I didn't say that. Sir Bipp shrugged and vehemently denied it.

Hannina frowned at Sir Bipp's denial, then looked at Morinda and asked, "Your Majesty asked the police department to hand over this case, do you have any good suggestions?"

"Do as Your Majesty says, and immediately recall Director Don Wright. Morinda replied, "However, Your Majesty has also said that some people can be arrested... After all, someone had to be held accountable for the assassination of Saike-Marat. ”

"The case must be handed over to Chief Herman, and the police must be removed from the case immediately... This is Your Majesty's love for you. "If they dare to assassinate Seke-Marat, they won't care if the police continue to investigate... Who do you think Saike-Marat is, first of all, he is a high-ranking official of the royal government, representing the king in exercising power in the local area, assassinating him is tantamount to challenging the royal power, and secondly, Saike-Marat was originally the merchant representative of Balan Town, the leader of a huge merchant alliance!"

"The case of the assassination of Saike-Marat itself represents an extraordinary significance, and His Majesty chooses to put it down lightly now, and it will be held high in the near future!" the old sir's face appeared with the wisdom of the old man, "The police department now only needs to observe with its eyes and monitor all organizations that may become enemies of the kingdom. ”

"I agree with Sir Bipp. Morinda nodded, "What the office needs to do now is to stabilize the situation in Harrens Province, and improve the government system and regulations as soon as possible, so as to prepare for the subsequent government restructuring." ”

"Also plan ahead for His Majesty's entry into the Suke Plains. "This is what we should be doing now," he said, "and this is what we should do now," he stared at Hannina, with a hint of warning in his eyes, "Your Majesty has seen the thunderous methods, and there is no need for the police department to charge now... You need to keep the kingdom as calm as a backwater under His Majesty's thunderous tactics. ”

The words of the two old men made Hannina fall into thought, as an old agent, and even more so an old agent who had served as the deputy chief of the security department of the old empire Suke City for ten years, in fact, he knew better than anyone how terrible the intricate network of relationships within the kingdom was now.

But it was precisely because she was an agent that she thought things were different from other ministers, and that was the most fundamental reason why she was able to stay here.

"I'll do what you say for the time being. ”

Hanina finally chose to listen to the advice of the two old ministers.
