In consideration of the security of intelligence, Pan Yan's letter of introduction also indicated the level of authority he had access to intelligence secrets, which was limited to semi-public personnel and operations, as well as written documents with a "D level" level of confidentiality. Of course, Lin Si himself is actually only a supernumerary intelligence officer of the Ministry of Security, and his authority is only one level higher than Pan Yan's, and he can't really reach the intelligence personnel and information channels lurking in Hangzhou. However, Lin Si's main job in Hangzhou City is to welcome and send people from all walks of life on the surface. According to the letter of introduction, Pan Yan's task on this trip was "research" and he needed to carry out public activities in Hangzhou, so the boss handed over Pan Yan's reception to Lin Si, and he arranged Pan Yan's affairs during his stay in Hangzhou.

Lin Si first took Pan Yan to take a general tour of the inside and outside of the Fengsheng Rice Shop, and then brought him into the flower hall in the inner courtyard to sit down. Pan Yan asked curiously: "I saw that there are as many as 10,000 catties of grain in the warehouse just now, is this rice shop not just used for appearance, but really in business?"

Lin Siying said: "Boss Pan don't underestimate this rich rice shop, the grain transported to Zhoushan Island through here last year was no less than one million catties! I heard that Boss Pan came from the north, and some of the grain supplies brought by the Zhoushan fleet when it went north to Shandong last year were also purchased by the organization here, maybe Boss Pan enjoyed it before he went south. ”

After Pan Yan was captured at Lushunkou, he stayed at Zhifu Island and Phi Dao for a period of time, and he also roughly knew the arrangements for Haihan to transport grain from the south and the situation of aiding Phi Dao, which sounded consistent with what Lin Si said. The grain production areas under the rule of Haihan were mainly concentrated in the two provinces of Fuguang and the coastal areas of the Indochina Peninsula, and it was difficult to meet the needs of the colonies in Zhejiang and Shandong at the same time due to the limitation of transportation capacity, and the current grain production of these two places was still difficult to achieve self-sufficiency, so they would also purchase grain from the local area.

If you include freight and labor costs, the price paid is actually not much different from the grain shipped from the south. In particular, since last year, Haihan has been providing assistance to Phi Dao, and at once tens of thousands of mouths have been opened to eat, and the demand for food is even greater. As a result, the trade volume of Fengsheng Rice Bank has increased greatly, and it has become one of the largest grain merchants in Hangzhou and even eastern Zhejiang, and it is also the main grain procurement channel of Haihan in Zhejiang.

Pan Yan asked: "Behind the rice line, the adults of Haihan are planning and operating, is it possible that no one in this city of Hangzhou is aware of it?"

Lin Si said with a smile: "Are you blind when these 100,000 people in Hangzhou City? Of course there are clear-eyed people, but what do you know? This rice shop is originally operated openly, and what it does is also a legal business, no stealing or robbing, no bullying of children, and the government cannot impose a crime to close this shop." ”

Pan Yan still asked without giving up: "But the two sides confronted each other outside the city a few days ago, and no one came to trouble you?"

Lin Si took a sip of the teacup, and then replied unhurriedly: "There are more than 70 employees in this rice shop directly under my jurisdiction, most of whom are Ming people, but I am afraid that there are only a few thousand people who rely on this rice shop to eat. Among them, there are not only some grain sellers, but also people in the yamen, who want to move this rice shop, who is to move the rice bowls of thousands of people. What's more, the people in the government are not stupid, you are confronting the Ming army outside the city, if they copy this rice line, then there will be no only channel for communication, in case the war is tight, wouldn't it be a way out?"

Pan Yan slowly understood Lin Si's words, and tried to interpret them: "This means that some people know that this is Haihan's business, but they will still maintain the abundant rice store for the sake of profit and the future?"

Lin Si nodded and said: "Most of the people in Zhejiang officialdom who have objections to Haihan are people whose interests have been damaged because of Haihan's arrival, but there are also many people who have benefited because of Haihan and have switched to the Haihan camp. For example, our brothers, before the chiefs came, were also well-known maritime merchants in the East China Sea, seemingly free but subject to many restrictions, and they also felt that it was difficult to achieve great things. After voting for Haihan, I realized that the pattern in the past was too small, and there were still many things to do in this world. People in the officialdom want to be promoted and make a fortune, it is easy for Haihan, as long as they bow their heads and serve, not many people can resist the temptation of interests, you see that Ningbo prefect Qu Yutong, isn't it one of the best examples?"
