Chapter 1253: Looking for the Dragon Robe and Going Up the Empty Mountain Again

Long Xiao swaggered into the Criminal Department, and Hu Haiquan, the secretary of the Criminal Department, was drinking tea and chatting with the director Li Zhengmin, when he saw the gate post hurriedly coming in: "Lord Shangshu, it's not good, there is a holy decree." Hu Haiquan was frightened when he heard this, and hurriedly got up to greet him, and Long Xiao came in. Hu Haiquan hurriedly asked: "You are the minister of the Qincha?" Is there a holy decree? Long Xiao took out the holy decree, Hu Haiquan and the director Li Zhengmin were about to kowtow, Long Xiao smiled and said, "You are the Shangshu Hu Haiquan Hu, right?" Hu Haiquan hurriedly agreed. Long Xiao: "You don't have to kneel, get up, I don't have to read the holy decree, you can see for yourself, right?" ”。

Hu Haiquan hurriedly took it, read the content carefully, and asked, "You are Lord Long Xiaolong, right?" Long Xiao smiled: "Yes, please also ask Lord Hu for help, this is what the emperor meant", Hu Haiquan: "What Lord Long said is that the lower officials do their best, if there is anything Lord Long said, the Criminal Department will spare no effort." Long Xiao said something about the theft of the dragon robe from the Gu family's royal clothing workshop in Shenwu County, and Hu Haiquan was also embarrassed: "Lord Long, this case is very strange, it is not the so-called ordinary thieves, it must be the so-called Jiangyang thieves or the green forest robbers who gather in the mountains and forests, but there are so many bandits in the country, it is difficult to find out one by one."

Long Xiao said with a smile: "Master Hu, the emperor only gave half a year, if I can't solve the case, not only will I be held accountable, but the criminal department will not be left behind, right?" When Hu Haiquan heard this, he smiled bitterly and said: "Although you can rest assured, I will immediately go down to the national sea fishing documents, and there will be brave men under the heavy reward, and the criminal department still has this expenditure in this regard, how about a thousand taels of gold?" ”。 Long Xiao: "Lord Hu, the gold thousand taels is too little, I think it is just ten thousand taels of gold, and these expenses will be funded by our Shenwu County, Lord Hu doesn't have to worry."

Hu Haiquan was even more happy, with ten thousand taels of gold, he would not shoot and no one would provide news. It's all a rich county in Shenwu County, it seems to be true, Long Xiao took out ten thousand taels of gold, and he didn't blink his eyelids, it seems that he, the magistrate, is more alive than his own criminal department Shangshu. Hu Haiquan was a little emotional: In the end, he is a horse master, and he is rich. Immediately, Hu Haiquan sent the national sea fishing documents, and sent them to the 5o major provinces and counties in the country in 6oo urgently, and then let the provinces and counties decentralize the counties. Hu Haiquan was in the lobby of the Criminal Department, arranged a special person to be in charge, and became a case-solving team, with 5o people, tracking the news of the 5O provinces and counties across the country, and where there was a situation, he would go to investigate it.

Long Xiao did all this, and felt that the criminal department did this, and it worked, but it couldn't play a decisive role, that is, he could get a little bit of news about the thieves, and he still had to rely on himself to really solve the case, so Long Xiao thought of the six brothers of the Trap Mountain, they were empty-handed experts, the ancestors of the thieves. The six brothers of Trap Mountain should only know the empty door of the whole country, and they have to rely on them.

After Long Xiao arranged things in the Criminal Department, he came to Trap Mountain. The six rats in the trap saw that Long Xiao was coming, they were very happy, they didn't expect that Long Xiao could get the top prize, and he became the emperor's concubine, which is even more consolidated for the trapping mountain, with the support of the concubine, the trapping mountain was originally to listen to the tune and not listen to the announcement, the right is natural, this is more free, no one dares to fight the idea of trapping the empty mountain.

Now in the empty mountain, there are more than 15o people, but the military strength is 5o, usually a strong man in the reclamation, if there is a war, it is a soldier. The Six Rats in the Empty Mountain implemented a military reclamation system, as long as all strong men who met the military service must serve in the military, and they have not been discharged until they are old and can no longer fight, they are allowed to retire. In such a system, one is that there are enough strong men and men to grow their own food, and the other is that they can quickly form their own army.

The grain in the Hollow Mountain is also used by the military, and half of it is handed over by individuals. Soldiers can also do business, as long as they do business in the empty mountain, they have to pay a thousandth of the tax, which in the Sui Dynasty, it is still a very light tax burden, the people of the nearby states and counties come to Xianlong Mountain to do business, Xianlong Mountain has three major markets, does not accommodate 6o people, the daily turnover, are above 3ooo million taels of silver, the empty mountain can not collect more than 30,000 taels of silver, plus more than 6o copper plates per day into the mountain, the military expenses of the empty mountain are still enough.

Drill Rat Bai Bai Biao: "Big Boss, how do you have time to trap the Sky Mountain?" Long Xiao said about the theft of the dragon robe in Shenwu County, and Bai Jinbiao fell into deep thought: "Big boss, this is not good, there are countless Jiangyang thieves in the country, but there are only a dozen places where the means are high, it is useless to steal the dragon robe, and the only people who can steal the dragon robe are those relatively large forces, and there are few people who want to be emperors, I guess it is among the three people", Long Xiao is happy: "Are those three people?" ”。

Bai Bai Biao: "One is the East China Sea Eating Island, there are millions of people on the island, thousands of warships, more than one million troops, and they have always been called emperors overseas, and the people are the three brothers of the Huang family, the eldest is called Huang Tiandao, the second is called Huang Tianxing, and the third is called Huang Tianba. There is also Ouyang Ke of Jigong Mountain in Northern Xinjiang, who has always been disobedient to education, and there are hundreds of thousands of horses under his hands, and he has the ability to steal empty hands, if he stole it, it is very likely, and the last one is the Fantian Seal of Chixin Island in Dongting Lake, and he also has the heart of the emperor, and there are many people who will be skillful, and it is also possible that in addition to these three, I can't think of anyone who can dare to steal the dragon robe."

Long Xiao: "Jin Biao, then according to your estimate, who is most likely, these three places are scattered in different directions, if you look for them one by one, but it takes a little effort, the emperor gave me half a year's time, if you can't solve the case, it's trouble." Drill Rat Bai Jinbiao said with a smile: "The big boss is in the bureau, the authorities are fascinated, let alone half a year, it is another month, you let the Gu family royal clothing workshop work overtime, and make three more sets of dragon robes, anyway, they are all produced by the Gu family's imperial clothing workshop, even the emperor can't see it." Long Xiao thought about it, if he really couldn't solve the case, he could only use this method, as long as he told a lie, he would get it back from Dongshan Island by himself, and there would be no proof of death anyway. However, this is the last resort, after all, if you can't solve the case, you don't feel at ease, only by catching the thief, you can know who stole it, and you can be completely at ease.

The gopher Platinum Tiger said: "Big boss, I think so, we are trapped in the empty mountain, six people, we will be divided into three groups, go to these three places, go to see if you know, if they steal the head, it is easy to say, we also do this business, and then steal it back." Long Xiao had a different opinion: "Let's be trapped in the empty mountain, we can't be without the master, if you six brothers leave, there will be no leader on the mountain, wouldn't it be a troublemaker, I don't think it's appropriate." Drill the sky rat Bai Jinbiao: "Big boss, otherwise, the island will be eaten by the fourth, fifth, and sixth of the three of them, and the three of them have good water quality, even if they are on the sea, they will not suffer losses." The second child goes to Jigong Mountain in northern Xinjiang, and the third child goes to Chixin Island in Dongting Lake, so that's it."

Long Xiao thought about it for a while, and felt that it was more likely that Tongyu Island would steal the dragon robe, and his water nature was not bad, and he had excellent qi-holding skills, so it was more suitable for the three rats to go to Tongyu Island: "Jin Biao, then I will go to Tongyu Island with the fourth, fifth, sixth, and four people, I think it is more likely that Tongyu Island is more likely, Tongyu Island is the closest to us, and it is very likely that they stole it." Bai Jinbiao: "That's fine, but I'm going to survey the Gu family's Imperial Clothing Workshop first to see what method they used to steal it, and basically I can see which thief stole it."

Long Xiao felt that as long as it was the best, especially the gopher Platinum Tiger, he was the best at surveying, and the footprints of the thieves were a long time in the past, as long as he didn't destroy the scene, the Platinum Tiger could see who did it. Although the scene of the Gu family's imperial clothing workshop has long been destroyed. However, from the geographical location and environment, you can still see some of the thief's thief skills, as long as you can see which one it is, it is easy to start.

In addition, Long Xiao was also worried that the cost of the trapped island was not enough, so he asked the Diamond Mouse Platinum Biao: "Jin Biao, the silver on the island is not enough, there must be reserves, if it is not enough, I will let them allocate some of it", Drill Mouse Platinum Biao smiled: "I know that the big boss has silver, but the Trap Mountain is not weak, the original savings are 100 million taels, and there are hundreds of incomes every year, besides, our 100 million taels of silver are not idle, we have set up a money village in the mountain, as long as there are people in the mountains who lack silver, Without any loans, the annual interest of this 100 million taels of silver is more than 10 million, and the silver is enough." When I heard the interest, I felt that the six rats were still very business-minded, and they still gave another 100 million taels to the drill rats to make them perform better. == (Important notice of this site: Please use the free APP of this site, no ads, no errors, fast updates, members synchronize the bookshelf, please pay attention to the WeChat public account appxsyd (press and hold for three seconds to copy) Download the free reader!!
