Chapter 696: The Great Merchant's Intentions
Li Xiang really came to the right place today, the two of them just found a place to sit down, and immediately someone behind them was talking about this matter, and they also said the name Batu.
"No, this is a framing of the Prince of the Tang Dynasty, don't talk nonsense, Batu's family is not an ordinary person, such a thing, if it is found, then the whole family will suffer."
Another middle-aged man lowered his voice, this guy looked more experienced, the young man just now should have listened to the wind and rain, so he said unscrupulously, and obviously did not suffer a loss, if he had suffered a loss, he would never dare to talk about the aristocracy unscrupulously in broad daylight.
"These things are so easy to find out, people will definitely do it seamlessly, the Batu family has always controlled our business route to Datang, how many things are transported back by them, if Zhizhibao opens a business here with us, then what money do they make?" Who of us is going to buy their stuff? ”
Listening to the young man say this, Li Xiang felt that there was some truth, generally something happened that could not be found, so whoever benefited the most, this person is most likely to be proved in modern society.
Of course, you have to find out who is the biggest profiteering, both ostensibly and secretly, so that you can find out, not just find out the superficial, if so, in the end you still can't find the real murderer.
Li Xiang listened sideways for a while, most of them were news that the wind was rain, and there were not many useful things, but Li Xiang remembered the surname Batu.
"Send someone to investigate the big merchants of the Western Turks and see who often goes to the interior."
Li Xiang said while drinking mare's milk, Long San made a series of gestures to the outside, as if he was sitting here and not moving, but in fact, he had already passed the news out, and the transmission of news between the soldiers of the system was so magical, some people may not understand, but they can all understand it.
When Li Xiang finished eating, another person had already come over, and they had already figured out the problem that Li Xiang wanted to investigate just now, and the speed could be said to be very fast, when they received Li Xiang's order, these people would do whatever it took to find the result, otherwise the speed would not be so fast.
Batuu ...... Roch ...... Gertu ......
Li Xiang got these three names, these three were all big merchants of the Western Turks, and they also had their own status in the Western Turkic officialdom, and these three were all tribal leaders, and in addition to running their own tribes, there were several caravans.
These caravans are all going in different directions, but the main direction is Chang'an City, as the few people who ate just now said, their biggest profit is to sell goods from Chang'an City to this side, and the most profitable of these goods is the goods of Zhizhibao.
Although they have to spend a huge amount of money in Chang'an City to auction it off, and even buy second-hand goods from others, the price is already very high, but as long as it is transported to the royal city of the Western Turks, then they can get several times the profit, which has been verified countless times, so even if they are pressed with a lot of money, they are willing to do this.
But if Zhidao Bao directly opened the store to the royal city of the Western Turks, then their advantage would no longer exist, no matter how much money they had in their hands, and no matter how familiar they were with the roads on the road, it would be impossible for people to ask you people for help.
Theoretically speaking, these three are indeed suspicious, but no evidence has been found yet, and Li Xiang does not dare to mess around.
"Send someone to keep an eye on some of the clerks of these three families to see if anyone has anything to do with this matter."
Li Xiang believes in one thing, if you do something wrong, then you have to use several wrong things to cover up this matter, as long as this matter is related to you, then we will stare at you twenty-four hours a day, and sooner or later we will be able to show flaws.
There is still a harvest in the city this trip, at least I know these big merchants, if the relationship between the Western Turks and the Tang Dynasty breaks down, the three of them can make the same money as before, which is also a big gain.
When he returned to the barracks, Han Gonggong also found some clues, although a lot of things were deleted on it, but from the existing information, Han Gonggong still found some traces, the Western Turks said that a total of more than 40 people were interrogated, but according to some evidence of Han Gonggong, at least more than 50 people were interrogated.
"How did you find out?"
Li Xiang looked at Han Gonggong's report, and said with some confusion in his heart, after all, Li Xiang also looked at some of the main information, but found nothing.
"Your Highness, you see that they must have just changed these materials, the ink on these two sides is different, and there are a few pages missing in the middle, although they are very clean, but there are still some traces, and in the confessions of these two people, the name of the third person has already appeared, although they erased the name of the third person, but if you look at it from behind, you can still see some traces."
Handesi is a veteran, so when checking these materials, this guy is more careful than anyone else, most of the materials are hands-on, and he also gave the surrounding documents to the church when he checked, these people re-checked according to the way of Handeoksi, and finally found out something wrong.
Sure enough, these materials have been processed, and it is very likely that the direction of our investigation will be changed, or it may be that they will take the initiative to guide us, and in any case, they must have hidden a lot from us.
"Your Highness, are we going to investigate secretly, or are we going to ask them directly?"
Gonggong Han looked at Li Xiang and didn't speak, he didn't know what Li Xiang would choose.
Li Xiang suddenly remembered that sentence, children will choose, if it is an adult, it will definitely be together.
"You go down and pick people, tell them what you suspect, and then let them investigate, no matter how much it costs, you have to find out what you suspect, if you want to find someone, you can find someone, if you want to find something, you can find something, at all costs, you must solve all these doubts."
When Li Xiang said these words, the old Han Tou thought that Li Xiang was going to do it in secret, who knew that when he just walked out of the tent, Li Xiang ordered someone to send a post to Xiangguo's mansion to meet with Xiangguo.
