Chapter 438: Say You Have It, You Have It
Fu Shanyue's expression was relaxed and not panicked at all. After all, as long as he reveals his identity, he can easily cross the border with the entire caravan, and no one dares to check his belongings.
Suddenly, a few people came out of the checkpoint.
Six or seven officials, one lowly slave.
The cheap slave actually appeared in the level, and this rare scene attracted the attention of the merchants.
They didn't care about the others, and walked straight to the Shimen caravan and Fushan Yue's team and shouted, "This column, strictly investigate!"
Shi Er was shocked, and stepped forward and arched his hand: "A few bad masters, what happened?"
"Dagong County Ya!" The official waved the token in front of them, "It's nothing, check the spot according to the routine, and I just happened to draw you!"
Shi Er couldn't help but laugh: "Don't bother with it, we don't have any contraband here."
This errand officer saw it with his own eyes yesterday, how could he be fooled, and his face turned pale at the moment: "Don't talk nonsense, stand aside, don't obstruct official business!"
"And you, you!" He drank the caravan men who wanted to move, "Don't move at all, or the shackles will serve!" Okay, search for me, search carefully."
When he spoke here, the other officials searched separately, and every carriage was spared, regardless of whether it was carrying goods or people.
The search results of the first ten wagons came out, but no.
Then keep searching.
The Shimen Chamber of Commerce has more cars and more goods, and it takes a lot of time to search. Taking advantage of this stall, He Lingchuan and Fushan Yue rushed over.
Shi Er's master was inquiring, "What's going on? Poor master, we are all good citizens who are safe and disciplined! He pointed to the slave and said, "What's the matter with this man, and why is he standing here?"
The Errand Boss glared at him, "It's none of your business!"
"Oh? Isn't this cheap slave falsely accusing us?" Fu Shanyue's gaze at the cheap slave made his heart tremble, "He originally served me, but I beat him a few times and held a grudge, so he wantonly took revenge."
At this, he looked up and sniffed twice, and frowned, "This guy had drunk earlier. You're gullible, a drunken slave?!"
As soon as the sound is raised, there are more tourists around.
The servants thought to themselves, is this a dog's nose, the cheap slave can smell the wine he drank last night? On the surface, he wanted to reply: "Random inspections are carried out according to the usual practice, and they are legal and compliant!"
Fushan Yue smiled, "What if you don't find it?"
The cold light in his eyes made the cheap slave tremble with fright.
The Errand Boss doesn't care, "Then congratulations on passing the test."
Fushan gave him a deep gaze: "Do you know who I am?"
The errand boss stubbornly said, "No matter who you are, in the realm of Lingxu City, you must obey the laws here!"
Fu Shanyue smiled: "Okay, good, enforce the law impartially."
Uncle Da and other guards came from behind, eyeing the officials. Fushan waved his hand and told them all to retreat into the group.
There are many people here, and it is not a place to use force.
By this time, the other officers had finished checking the last carriage and climbed out and said, "No, not at all!"
Everyone's eyes focused on the cheap slave.
The errand boss was also a little panicked.
He obviously saw it with his own eyes last night, why wasn't he in the car?
Could it be that this Fushan Gongzi was alert and threw away the target a long time ago?
Fushan Yue smiled and didn't smile: "Now, what are you going to do?"
The Errand Boss asked his men, "Did you really search every corner?"
"Harm, we're still afraid of blindfolding, and every carriage has been inspected by ourselves! Nope."
It's really ...... to chase The errand boss met Fu Shanyue's cold gaze, and could only swallow his saliva: "it, this..."
At this time, several more people walked out from the back of the checkpoint, and the leader asked, "What's going on here?"
At first glance, the body shape, limbs, clothing, and posture of holding his head high look like a person, but in fact, the skin is bluish, and the parts that are not covered by the clothing are covered with fine scales.
Its eyes are emerald green and its ears have fin-like spikes
, He Lingchuan noticed that there was a not-so-conspicuous film between his fingers.
Is that...... Web?
What kind of monster is this?
As soon as Fu Shanyue saw him, his eyes narrowed, revealing a look of sudden realization: "Zhongsun Mou? It's no wonder that you stumbled me!"
"Bold!" A guard behind this man stepped forward and shouted, "How dare you be rude to the Inspector!"
"Inspector?" Fu Shanyue was a little surprised, and wanted to take a step, but when he heard it, he took it back.
"Fushiyamagoe? Don't live the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." Zhongsun Mou turned unhurriedly to the errand boss, "Tell me, what's going on?"
"Routine, routine sampling."
"Did you check out?"
"No ......"
The errand boss squeaked, and suddenly someone behind him shouted, "Lord Inspector, there is contraband here!"
Everyone was stunned, turned their heads to look, but saw two soldiers standing on the side of a carriage of the Shimen caravan, lifted the tarpaulin, pointed to the glass jar below, and said, "This is the dragon scale curly cypress, and it is expressly forbidden to take it out of the Twilight Plains!"
"How is this possible?" Shi Er lost his voice, "We have been walking this trade route for more than ten years, and we have never brought dragon scales and cypress!"
He is familiar with the road and never makes mistakes, how can he carry contraband?
This dragon scale curly cypress is a plant endemic to the twilight swamp, with leaves like dragon scales, and when used as medicine, it can make a man vigorous. It is conceivable that this kind of thing is not worried about sales, after all, there are always people who go to the hospital to ask for medicine starting with "I have a friend".
However, the dragon scale curly cypress used to be mined excessively, and now the stock is very small, and it has become a controlled medicinal material, and the people are not allowed to collect and transport it privately.
Once discovered, heavy fines!
It was Shi Er's family that saw that dragon scales and cypress appeared in his car, and it was still a big jar that was still going to die, and all the blood rushed to his brain.
It's infuriating.
What caravan smuggling valuables would be stupid enough to use an unobstructed glass bottle?
Private individuals can't exploit it, so that's what the government is doing.
The other party is plotting against the Shimen caravan, and it has reached the point where there is no lower limit and no shame!
He Lingchuan also looked at the whole thing on the side, and quietly asked Fu Shanyue, "What does this guy have to do with you?"
"Right." Fushan said in a loud voice, "He wants me to die."
"What's wrong with you?"
"His grandfather was killed by my father."
「.....」
Fu Shanyue touched his nose again: "His brother's death has something to do with me."
「…… Okay." Is it a billion-point relationship?
So Zhongsun Mou has every reason to hate Fu Shanyue, and hate Wu and Wu?
Sure enough, Zhong Sun Mou's gaze swept over, and he also hated He Lingchuan unabated, as if he enjoyed the same treatment as Fu Shanyue.
At this time, he kicked Fu Shanyue away, and shouted "I'm not familiar with him", I don't know if it's too late?
"Privately carrying dragon scales and cypress, trying to cross the border-" Zhongsun Mou dragged out his tone, "How is the punishment usually judged?"
He's not a professional at doing this after all.
An official from the back trotted over with a puff of smoke: "Dragon scales and cypress, more than two catties—"
He looked at the jar, not to mention two catties, there were seven or eight catties in it.
"The amount is so great that it is punishable by a fine ten times greater, that is, three thousand taels of silver."
"Three thousand taels ......" Shi Er's forehead sweated, and he had a heart attack when he heard this number. was fined this huge amount of money, how much money can he keep after this trip? "Your Excellency, you're too heavy."
He is too lazy to argue about the origin of the dragon scales and cypresses, if the people don't fight with the officials, they will definitely succeed if they want to plant the blame.
But he also wanted to reduce his losses.
The clerk said that "yes" the penalty is ten times, but he didn't say that it is certain, that is, the punishment is flexible.
At this point, the convoy has been forcibly dragged away from the level, so as not to block the teams behind.
Zhongsun Mou looked at Fu Shanyue and smiled softly
Loose and comfortable: "If Fushan Gongzi is willing to intercede for you, I will still give this face."
Fushan Yue twitched.
This guy is so vicious! If he was asked to pull down his face and beg Zhongsun Mou, he would definitely not be able to do it.
However, He Lingchuan and the Shimen caravan will be troubled.
"Zhongsun Mou, you're playing with fire." He warned Zhong Sun Mou, "If you do too much bad work, it's better to have an eye behind your back."
The guards on the side shouted, "You dare to threaten the commander of Lingxu City!"
Zhongsun Mou smiled: "Fushan Gongzi refused, if you want to blame, you have to blame him."
Fu Shanyue bared his teeth and whispered to He Lingchuan, "Let Shi Er pay the fine, and I will go back to make up for him as much as he pays."
He Lingchuan nodded to Shi Er's master.
They walked all the way, and they also had some tacit understanding with each other. Although Shi Er's master was angry in his heart, he believed that peace was precious after many years of business, so he swallowed his anger and paid the fine.
"Your Excellency, shall we go?" Ten zhang further ahead is the land of Chiyan, and they can't get through.
"What's the hurry?" Zhongsun Mou asked the officials slowly, "Has this team finished the investigation?"
The little official was very interested: "No, not yet, this is only half of the investigation!"
"Then what are you still doing, don't delay Fushiyama's time!"
"Yes." The little official turned around and waved his hand to the officer, "I was stunned, I moved it all down and examined it carefully!"
Fu Shanyue stared at him, smiling rather than smiling, "You are so majestic."
The little official met his yin owl's gaze and subconsciously shrunk his neck. But the order had already been issued, and one or two thousand officials and citizens here at the checkpoint were watching, and the servants immediately took action, really moving all the goods on the car to the ground and inspecting them one by one.
They also drew knives and stabbed and poked into the bundles of material, so that if the Tibetans were inside, they would have spilled blood all over the ground.
Shi Er's family was shocked to see it, he really planned to hide the little peach in the pile of materials.
The goods of the Shimen caravan were many and miscellaneous, and the errand boss saw that the members of the team were all watching, and only himself and his subordinates were tired and tired, so he said in a rough voice: "Look at anything, come down and help carry it!"
The members of the caravan don't look good, this thing is going to make it difficult for them to die, and you want them to work hard?
He Lingchuan spoke out at the right time: "As soon as they make a move, they have to ask for money, so they have to trouble the masters."
The errand boss saw that he was smiling, but the words he said were so bad, so he pointed to his nose and said, "Boy, don't be big here, or you will suffer!"
"You see I don't have anything, not even a carriage." He Lingchuan patted him and helped, "If you want to plant a stake on me, stuff some dragon scales and cypress or something, it's not easy, right?"
