After the accident of the White Cotton Chamber of Commerce, the Hongwen Chamber of Commerce benefited the most.

With this unexpected business war, Yue Hongwen jumped to the top of the White Cotton Chamber of Commerce and became the leader of the Songjiang cotton market. The White Cotton Chamber of Commerce has completely lost the possibility of competing with the Hongwen Chamber of Commerce, and has not been able to recover until now.

"Three years ago, the villain did send someone to attack the president of the White Cotton Chamber of Commerce. Because Yue Hongwen's people secretly revealed the news, the attack was very smooth......"

Zhang Shun followed Chen Wu's meaning while secretly looking at Chen Wu's expression, seeing that there seemed to be praise in his expression, he didn't interrupt himself, he was sure in his heart, and continued: "If the villain is not mistaken, the body of the president of the Baimian Chamber of Commerce is buried in a mass grave ten miles away. If you search carefully, you will most likely find evidence of the remaining belongings. In addition to this matter, the villain's Sea Dragon Regiment also had many contacts with Yue Hongwen. It's just that after a long time, many details are not remembered clearly. I don't know what the Governor wants to ask? ”

Chen Wu glanced at him lightly, leaned over and picked up the confessions of the pirates from in front of him, and read it casually while flipping it over: "In the winter of the previous year, Li Yuan of Dengzhou City was kidnapped when he went out and extorted a ransom of 50,000 gold coins. In March last year, the convoy of the Hongfa Chamber of Commerce was robbed by a large group of pirates. Last June...... There are a total of seven major cases, is there Yue Hongwen behind them to report to you? ”

"Not bad."

Zhang Shun did not hesitate, and said firmly: "Yue Hongwen not only provided us with information, but also secretly provided food, supplies, wound medicine, and a foothold. ”

Chen Wu nodded, there seemed to be anger on his face, and asked, "Then Yue Hongwen is obviously the leader of the Chamber of Commerce, why did he risk being ruined and repeatedly cooperating with you Haikou?" Do you want to rely on your hands to eradicate dissidents and fight competitors? Or is it something you've got hold of? ”

"As the Governor said!"

"That Yue Hongwen originally just wanted to use our hands to eradicate competitors. What I didn't want to do was not good, I left my feet, and we found out that my true body took the opportunity to blackmail. If you don't cooperate, you will expose the matter of the White Cotton Chamber of Commerce. Yue Hongwen had no choice but to be in the same stream as me, and he fell deeper and deeper. ”

"Really?"

Chen Wu sighed, with a look of regret on his face: "If it weren't for his own greed, how could he end up in such an involuntary situation?" Pathetic, alas! ”

After the two sang and acted in harmony, Yue Hongwen's scene was already doomed. Chen Wu immediately called the clerk to record all what Zhang Shun said, and arranged the details of each case as much as possible in order to be impeccable.

In addition to Zhang Shun, there are several henchmen among the other Haikou who are also protected by Zhang Shun.

After all, when it comes to such a big case, it is obviously not enough for one person to convince the public. Chen Wu could certainly excuse himself that the others would either stay in the lair in the open sea or be killed in the pursuit, but there could not be only one or two of them. Only by making proper arrangements in all aspects can this case be handled with ironclad evidence.

"Lord Governor, there's something wrong with the villain!"

When he was escorted by Chen Wu's personal guards, Zhang Shun suddenly stopped the two soldiers.

Chen Wu was in a good mood, and when he heard this, he asked casually, "What else is going on?" ”

Zhang Shun stared at Chen Wu's expression and asked, "How can the villain believe that the Governor will not go back on his word and kill the villain afterwards?" In the line of Haikou, he has long been aware of death. It's just that on the open islands, many brothers have families over the years, and they have to make some plans for them. ”

"Oh?" Chen Wu didn't expect Zhang Shun to think of this, and said interestingly: "Do you think that after this governor uses you, he will directly kill a few of you?" ”

"Exactly."

Zhang Shun said calmly: "If this matter is leaked, it is enough to disgrace the name of the governor, and the dead will never speak." If the villain is the governor, he will do the same. ”

"That's what you expected." Contrary to Zhang Shun's expectations, Chen Wu actually admitted it directly, but the next words surprised him even more: "At the beginning, this governor did have the idea of killing you afterwards. After all, there is a lot of evil, and there is more than enough to die. However, after seeing your ability, the Governor changed his mind. ”

Zhang Shun perked up and asked, "Please give a signal to the Governor." ”

"Zhang Shun will die, you will not die." Chen Wu said something that seemed a bit contradictory at first glance: "The Governor has some ideas about Ninghai County, but he lacks an excuse to intervene in an open and honest manner. If the pirates of Ninghai County become more and more fierce, they even attack the port of Quanzhou......"

Seeing that Zhang Shun's eyes were getting brighter and brighter, and even flashed ambition, Chen Wu smiled and asked rhetorically in the tone that Zhang Shun had just said, "How can this governor believe that after letting you go, you will still be loyal to this governor, instead of fleeing directly to the open sea?" ”

"Don't worry, Your Excellency Governor!"

Zhang Shun knew that he had encountered a unique opportunity, so he used all his strength to suppress his excitement and vowed: "If the villain has a bad heart, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed!" What's more, if the errand of Haikou hadn't been forced to do it at the beginning, how many people would have been willing to do it? As long as the Governor is willing to give the villain a clear way, the villain is your lackey! ”

He even said that he could let the governor send someone to accompany him back to the open sea, and send the whole family to Dengzhou to enjoy happiness.

Compared with the harsh conditions of the open sea, living in Dengzhou can indeed be said to be a blessing, but in a certain situation it is also a kind of hostage. Obviously, Zhang Shun has decided to win Chen Wu's trust at any cost and seize this opportunity. As for the other captured pirates, they are dead when they die, what does it have to do with him?

There is very little true friendship between the pirates, even if they are the same gang. Zhang Shun believed that once his own force and prestige could not suppress the others, other pirates would immediately pop up in the regiment and want to replace him!

Chen Wu knocked him with words that were not too harsh, but his attitude was very serious: "This Ninghai County and even the entire southeast will be the governor sooner or later in a few years. Even if you have other thoughts, there is nowhere to escape! ”

"Remember your words today!"

………

The Songjiang Army has caught those Haikou who did the big case of Ossan!

As a cavalry galloped into the city, news spread along the streets, exploding throughout the city in just a few hours. The entire people of Dengzhou and even the aristocratic circle were shocked by this amazing news. It was also reported that the cavalry would arrive in Dengzhou with the captives before dark.

As the Dengzhou government affirmed this news, the 400,000 people in the city were in an uproar, and the head of the Shangguan family was even more sad and joyful -- and at the same time a little suspicious.

It is good to be able to catch those Haikou who have lost their conscience and avenge the family of 53, but the head of the Shangguan family is even more worried that the so-called "Haikou" in the government's mouth is actually a group of criminals who are randomly brought in to make up the number. Everyone knows how far and how far that gang of pirates must have run away to commit such a big crime. If you don't catch it in the first few days, it should get harder and harder in the future. How is it possible that after a few days of silence, there is suddenly a happy result?

Regardless, this is more like a perfunctory attempt by the government to solve the dilemma.

Not only the head of the Shangguan family, but also the other people and nobles in the city also discussed and doubted it. The forces of the Dengzhou Chamber of Commerce Alliance are even more secretly sneering, ready to see the new governor's good show. Once they catch the flaws, this time the governor will have to be disgraced.

Just as hundreds of people were waiting for them, a large number of cavalry rushed over from the east.

Because it is one person and two horses, four hundred war horses are rushing in, and the momentum is still very impressive. As the distance narrowed, the Haikou on horseback who looked defeated and was tied into a dumpling, couldn't help but let the people on both sides of the road exclaim, followed by scolding. If it weren't for the cavalry escorting them, I was afraid that someone would smash them with debris in their hands on the spot.

"With so many captives, I'm afraid there must be fifty or sixty, right?"

This figure is beyond the imagination of many people, and it also makes the hearts of some people who doubt the Songjiang Army shake. Generally speaking, if the government really intends to perfunctory and give an explanation, shouldn't the number of people be as small as possible? After all, it is not easy to catch scapegoats, and the more people there are, the more likely they are to make mistakes. As long as the resurrected ghost who is pushed out is called the thief leader, the remaining ordinary thieves can be explained in whatever way they are killed or escaped in the fierce battle.

However, the Songjiang army captured a full sixty people!

Looking at the cracked skin of these pirates, every detail looks like they have been begging for a living on the beach all year round. This conclusion can be seen by many sharp-eyed people. What surprised them even more was that among the sacks carried by the cavalry, there were dozens of pirate heads sprinkled with quicklime for embalming. Nearly 100 pirates, it is said that all of them were captured and killed!

Isn't that true?

The crowd became louder, and some believing citizens began to cheer loudly for the government and the brave cavalry.

On the top floor of Wanghai Tower, looking at this scene from a distance, the faces of Zhou Tianruichi Kaifeng and others were a little unsightly. They originally wanted to use this incident to suppress Chen Wu's prestige, but they used so much power behind them to stir up instigation. Unexpectedly, the newly appointed governor really solved the case. The prestige that was originally affected by the Osan Bloody Case has all returned, and it is even faintly more stable.

The previous efforts of myself and others have been useless!

"I don't believe it!"

Chi Kaifeng finally pulled his face and denied that Chen Wuzhen captured the real culprit of the Osan bloody case. But at this moment, a henchman hurried up from the building and whispered a message.

"What kind of police station is Songjiang, and you want to be tried publicly? Allowing the subject and people of a certain status to sit in on the hearing? ”

Hearing the news of his henchman, Chi Kaifeng was stunned, surprised, and suspicious. Could it be that those Haikou who were arrested were really the criminals this time? Otherwise, how could the young new governor have the confidence to interrogate in public, rather than behead him immediately after a hasty secret interrogation?

With suspicions, he went upstairs with several other presidents of the Dengzhou Chamber of Commerce Alliance, got into a carriage and went to Donglin Street.

With their status in Dengzhou City, they are naturally qualified to observe.
