The guy thought about it and said: "The guest officer also knows that there are many people who come and go from the south to the north to see us in this line, and they also know a lot of news and doorways, our quarrying town is actually a pig iron distribution center, all the guests who come to us are basically related to the pig iron business, there are small traders, there are also big deals, according to our rules here, the business below two thousand catties picks up the goods by themselves, if it exceeds two thousand catties, this side is responsible for delivery, so there are several fleets and mules and horses in the town responsible for delivery, of course, Most of the customers who buy less than 2,000 catties are also delivered by them, but they have to pay for it themselves, so I estimate that those white-clothed soldiers must need to use fine iron to make weapons, where are they? These delivery people should know. ”

Wu Jin nodded, anything will leave clues, the key depends on whether you can find the right way, this guy is undoubtedly a person who knows the way, so three stinkers, top one Zhuge Liang, Zhuge Liang may not want to get this way, the key is that Zhuge Liang does not have in-depth contact with these things, the so-called interlaced is like a mountain.

Wu Jin didn't think much about it, so Suo asked this guy who knew how to make an idea for him, he took out two pieces of silver, one ingot twenty taels, one ingot ten taels, he first put twenty taels of silver on the table and said with a smile: "These twenty taels of silver are the reward for what you said just now, if you are more detailed, tell me how to find these white-clothed soldiers, such as who knows in the town, etc., then this ingot of ten taels of silver will also belong to you." ”

The man's heart was about to explode with joy, thirty taels of silver! He can buy a one-acre house in the town, he lowered his head and thought for a long time and said: "My second uncle is a famous blacksmith in the town, he told me that fine iron must be used to build a good weapon, but refined iron is more expensive and the quantity is smaller, and a small business house can't buy much fine iron, so if you want to buy a large amount, you must find a broker....."

"Wait!"

Wu Jin interrupted him, "Someone wants to buy three million catties of refined iron in the past two days, have you heard of it?" ”

"There are no three million catties, it is one million catties, it is the people from Qizhou who came to buy, their five big ships are parked on the river outside the wharf, I know this matter, they want to buy three million catties of refined iron, but Huang Laoya can only make up one million catties of goods in the sky, and it will take several days, I heard Huang Laoya's guys say yesterday, these people all use cash to buy, one million catties is 100,000 taels of silver, this time Huang Laoya can make a fortune."

The guy said with spit flying, and his eyes were full of jealousy that could not be concealed.

Wu Jin smiled and asked, "Who is this Huang Laoya?" ”

"This person is our fine iron broker here, there are a lot of brokers in our town, but there are only three who really make big deals, one is surnamed Lu, and the other is surnamed Jiang, both of them are ordinary pig iron, and the other person is Huang Laoya, he is a broker specializing in fine iron, and he is also the richest person in our town, no one knows how much money his family has? The way of the white-clothed soldier I was going to talk about just now is to find him first, and from him you can know who bought how much fine iron, and then find the person who delivered the goods, and the guest officer can find those white-clothed soldiers. ”

'Nice! Not bad! Wu Jin secretly praised, this is indeed a very good way, although not every farm with private soldiers is responsible for building weapons, but there must be a place to concentrate on building weapons, and it will be distributed everywhere, and if you find this place, you can find the distribution map of the white-clothed soldiers.

"Where is this Huang Laoya's house? I mean, where can I find this person? ”

"Just to the east of the town, there is a fork to the east when entering the town, along the road to the end, their house covers an area of five acres, white walls and black tiles, all made of stone, the best house in our town."

"Thank you!"

Wu Jin handed him thirty taels of silver, and the man happily took the silver, looked left and right, his face was smiling, and he hurriedly said goodbye, but when he walked to the door, he remembered something again, turned around and begged: "Uncle, don't say that I said it, Huang Laoya's family has a thug in the nursing home, and he knows it, he has to peel my skin, please uncle." ”

"There you go! I know it. ”

The guy left, at this time the shopkeeper also brought a doctor to treat the soldiers' injuries, Wu Jin slowly sat down in the back room, he needed to sort out his thoughts, at first he rushed to Danyang County to track Li Baisha, but here he inadvertently discovered the secret of the King of Chu's private soldiers, these two are not isolated two things, it should be said that one of the purposes of Li Baisha coming here is also to find the white-clothed army, so the secret of the white-clothed army will be discovered by him.

The last time he transported the tax money from the East Palace into Beijing, he knew that Baisha would collude with Uncle Shen Guo, and now he was more sure that Baisha Society was very likely to be one of Uncle Shen's overseas forces, if this was the case, then why did he build an overseas force? As the prime minister of a continental empire, what is the need for him to maintain power at sea? The Daning Dynasty had a naval army and already had enough sea power.

can only explain one reason, this is the escape road left by Uncle Shen Guo, and so is the Daning Water Army, he did everything possible to master the Chuzhou Water Army, just to give him a way to escape after his family failed, so he also had to control Jiangning Mansion to the death.

Now that the Chuzhou Navy has been taken away by himself, Uncle Shen's attention has shifted to Baishahui, so Baisha will come to Chuzhou to contact his private army for a certain purpose.

Huangfu Wujin was lying on the rattan chair, his mind was like a cocoon, and all the contexts were gradually sorted out.

In the end, Wu Jin stood up, now that he had sorted out the context, now he needed to open this door, and the key to open this door was the fine iron broker Huang Laoya.

．．．．．．．． The night shrouded the quarrying town, there was no moonlight, the stars were dim, and hundreds of steps away from the quarrying town was the vast river, the river lapped against the cliffs, and five large ships rose and fell with the waves on the river.

The town was also quiet, the lights in most of the windows were out, and it was midnight when only a few barking dogs could be heard occasionally.

In a mountain col in the east of the town is a big mansion covering an area of five acres, the mansion even the wall is also made of huge stones, the house is accompanied by mountains and waters, the scenery is beautiful, here is the house of the fine iron broker Huang Laoya, who would have thought that this person actually mastered more than seventy percent of the fine iron supply in Chuzhou, which shows that his financial resources are abundant.

Five hundred plum blossom guards surrounded the house from all directions, they held short crossbows in their hands, and carried horizontal knives at their waists, all of them moved quickly and vigorously.

With a soft whistle, twenty Plum Guard sergeants jumped lightly onto the wall, and the three mastiffs hiding behind the gate, 'Woo! The ground swooped down, and before they could scream, several short bolts whizzed through their heads, nailing them to the ground.

In a moment, the gate creaked open, and hundreds of Plum Blossom Guard soldiers rushed into the Yellow Mansion, they descended the mountain like fierce tigers, quickly subdued all the servants, men and masters of the Yellow Mansion one by one, and drove them all to the backyard.

At this time, dozens of Plum Blossom Guard soldiers escorted five shirtless men out, they were tied behind their backs, and their mouths were gagged with rags.

Captain Luo Sheng reported to Wujin Shili: "Sure enough, as the general expected, there are indeed members of the Baisha Society hidden in their mansion. ”

All five of them have a tattooed shark on their right arm, which is the symbol of the White Shark Society, so the White Desert Society is also called the White Shark Society.

"No one escapes!"

"No, the people in the house confessed that there are only five of them living here."

Wu Jin thought about it, but he was still a little uneasy, so he turned back to another lieutenant, Sun Jianhong, and said, "You take twenty brothers to the dock immediately, and if you find someone fleeing to the dock to report to the boat in the river, shoot me immediately!" ”

"Obey!"

With a wave of his hand, Sun Jianhong led twenty Meihuawei brothers to run in the direction of the dock.

At this time, a sergeant stepped forward to report, "General, the master Huang Laoya has been caught, and he is in the inner courtyard room." ”

"Has his room been searched?"

"The brethren are searching!"

Wu Jin nodded, he glanced at the people squatting all over the courtyard again, one by one frightened, he said: "Don't embarrass these people, find out the people in the account room and the like, and let the others go back to their rooms, and they are not allowed to leave the Yellow Mansion for the time being." ”

After Wu Jin finished explaining, he walked quickly to the inner courtyard, he walked into a room with lights on, there were six plum blossom guards standing in the room, and a man kneeling on the ground, this is the owner Huang Laoya, to Wu Jin's surprise, this man was actually an old man of sixty or seventy years old, and the image in his mind was far away.

He thought it was a man in his forties with big teeth, so he was called Huang Laoya, but he turned out to be a polite old man, and his teeth were not prominent.

"Give him a chair to sit on!"

For the sake of the old man, Huangfu Wujin didn't want to abuse him for the time being, Huang Laoya's expression was unusually calm, without the slightest panic, he sat down and asked, "Are you Jiangning Meihuawei?" ”

The news is actually quite well-informed, Mei Blossom Wei has only been in Jiangning for a few days, and he will know, Wujin did not answer him, but asked him, "What's your name?" Why is it called Huang Laoya? ”

Huang Laoya said lightly: "In Xia Huangqun, Laoya is our local language, which means a very prestigious gentry, and I am the only Ming Jing scholar in Quarry Town, so they call me so." ”

"It's actually a Ming scripture?"

Wu Jin sneered, "Since you are a Ming scripture scholar, you should know the law of Daning, collude with the pirates of Baisha, copy and behead all the doors according to the law, and sell fine iron, the quantity is huge, according to the new holy decree, you should also be copied and beheaded all over the door, the two sins are one, and the nine clans should be punished, don't you know your own sins?" ”

Huang Laoya's face was still not a little panicked, he glanced at Wujin, and said unhurriedly: "If I didn't guess wrong, the general shouldn't have come to kill the whole door!" ”

"It's worthy of old ginger!"

Wu Jin praised him, he no longer spared the bend, and smiled: "You are right, I didn't mean to come to the whole house, I only asked you two things, you answered to my satisfaction, I will leave immediately, what you do is as if I don't know anything, if you don't satisfy me, then I'm sorry, I will punish you tonight Huang family nine clans!" ”

Huang Laoya stared at him tightly, "Who are you, dare to say such things?" ”

Huangfu Wujin snorted, "Aren't you very well-informed?" Then let me tell you, my name is Huangfu Wujin, you know? ”

"You're the King of Heirs?" Huang Laoya was stunned.

Wu Jin nodded, "That's right, it's me." ”

"Then you ask!" Huang Laoya sighed lowly, he knew that this person must not be offended.
