Chapter 80: The Brain Is Not Good (Three Watches)
Sure enough, it's a major development!
Shen Qing raised his eyebrows slightly, and said with a sneer: "That group of people is better than foxes, will they let Wu Qilang follow them all the way to the entrance of the village?"
I was afraid that Wu Qilang would have been followed by someone a long time ago, but they wanted to find out the bottom of Wu Qilang, so they let him follow him silently, and intercepted him until the location at the entrance of the village. ”
Chen Li was stunned for a moment, and his tone couldn't help but bring a hint of admiration, "It's true that everything was expected by Madame!"
Wu Qilang said that those people did follow him after he had just followed the shopkeeper, and they didn't hide it, and directly told Wu Qilang about it, and the villain and Lord Sun guessed that they wanted to further beat Wu Qilang and completely dispel his idea of tracking down them.
They also told Wu Qilang that they would definitely ensure a stable supply of goods, so that Wu Qilang did not have to worry too much. ”
If they had sent someone to follow Wu Qilang, they would have been discovered long ago.
Shen Qing couldn't help but tug at the corners of his mouth.
Anyone can say that they are obedient.
However, even if the group of people who sold medicine were really forced to flee the capital, the demand market for immortal medicine had already been formed, and if there was a market, some people would take risks to do this business.
Those who are still doing this business may still be those who spread the elixir at the beginning, but in the future, the people who do business may become ordinary people or unscrupulous businessmen for profit, they will be like rats running around the streets, one after another, no matter how they fight.
We must not allow the situation to turn into such a vicious cycle!
She thought quickly for a moment, and then said: "That group of people will stop Wu Qilang in front of that village, explaining that if you go inside, it will not be possible for Wu Qilang to continue to follow, and there is definitely a problem with that village."
Although they temporarily believed that Wu Qilang was only eager to ask for medicine before following them, with their suspicious nature, this stronghold was discovered, and they would definitely move to the next stronghold immediately.
What do you and Master Sun think? ”
Chen Li immediately said: "We have the same idea as Madame, but since Wu Qilang's whereabouts have long been discovered by their people, it cannot be ruled out that the shopkeeper deliberately lured Wu Qilang to that village, and their stronghold is actually in another place."
What Master Sun means is that it is better to find someone to disguise themselves first and go into that village to investigate the situation......"
Shen Qing couldn't help but raise his lips, "You can endure it like this, yes, but you don't need to, that village is their stronghold nine times out of ten, the village you are talking about, but there is a village called Chenjia Village outside the capital?" ”
Chen Li raised his head suddenly, his eyes widened slightly, "How did Madam know?!" ”
It seems that he hadn't even said the name of that village from beginning to end!
Shen Qing smiled faintly, "You know what happened in Wei Qihou's Mansion a few days ago?" After that, I sent secret guards to monitor the Kaiyang County Mansion, and the Kaiyang County Prince's family obviously found a good way to get rich, and cooperated with those people to peddle that kind of medicine in the high-ranking elite circles in the capital.
The price they sell to the high-ranking elites is obviously different from the price they sell to the ordinary people.
A few days ago, after their servants had a big disaster in Wei Qihou's mansion, they were obviously afraid, they were busy cleaning up their inventory for the past two days, but they were not greedy enough to swallow elephants, they cleaned up too hard, and the goods were soon gone, but the people who wanted to ask for medicine still kept coming to the door, and they used their not very good brains to sum up, and yesterday they sent people out of the capital overnight, and went straight to Chenjia Village to get the goods. ”
And the Kaiyang County Mansion is one of the sales channels for those who sell medicines, and it is also their backer.
It can be said that those immortal medicines have been secretly spread in the capital for so long and have not been discovered by them, and the people from the Kaiyang County Mansion are indispensable to cover for them.
That group of people could send people to follow other informants, but they never dared to send people to follow the Kaiyang County Prince's family.
The most important thing that the high-ranking magnates lack is meaningless self-esteem, and the prince of Kaiyang County will not be happy to be watched everywhere by a group of people who are not on the stage.
Therefore, Qilin and the carriage that they followed all the way to the Kaiyang County Mansion were not discovered, but after they arrived at Chenjia Village, they were worried about being exposed, so they did not follow up.
Chen Li was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time.
Madame had found so much before they knew it!
For a moment, he couldn't tell whether he was admired, frustrated, or unconvinced.
Shen Qing continued to say lightly: "Lin Yi told me about this in the morning, I originally wanted to call you back and let you and Lord Sun send someone to investigate that Chenjia Village, but now there is no need to doubt it, that Chenjia Village must be their stronghold."
The cat-and-mouse game has been done for so long, and it's time to close the net. ”
Chen Li hurriedly came back to his senses and said in a deep voice: "Yes! One more thing......"
Chen Li paused and said: "After Wu Qilang promised to assist us, he gave us some immortal medicine in his hand, and the villain thought that Guo Langjun had traveled from south to north and had a wide range of knowledge, maybe he had seen this medicine, so he invited him to come to the government to identify it."
Guo Langjun really saw it, he said...... He first saw this medicine in Nan'anguo, south of Daqi.
This medicine is made from a plant called opium poppy, a large number of opium poppies are cultivated in Nan'an, and there are special people who produce this kind of fairy medicine, but in Nan'an, the fairy medicine is not called fairy medicine, it is called opium.
The people of Nan'an also know the dangers of opium, so they strictly prohibit ordinary people and military households from smoking opium, but opium is very popular among the high-ranking elites in Nan'an, and almost everyone is smoking it, which has become a fashion among the high-ranking elites in Nan'an. ”
Nananguo?
Shen Qing was a little stunned.
Because the time when the immortal medicine spread in the capital was too consistent with the time when the rumors about Yu Jiuqing's unfavorable rise half a year ago, Shen Qing always thought that these two things were the ghosts of King Cheng and the big liang behind him!
Why is it still mixed into a Nan'an country now?
She remembered that Nan'an was a country south of Daqi, and it had always lived in peace with Daqi, somewhat similar to the relationship between vassal states, even in the most turbulent years of Daqi, it did not take the opportunity to make any small moves, and it was a small country that was so low-key that people almost forgot its existence.
It's just that if the immortal medicine is only produced in Nan'an, the medicine can be supplied to those who sell the medicine, and it can only be Nan'an!
Shen Qing couldn't help frowning.
Seeing this, Chen Li said: "The villain and Master Sun feel that this matter must be related to Nan'an, but Nan'an is thousands of miles away, and it is not easy to investigate.
It's just that, about two months ago, Nan Anguo sent their Princess Zhenhe over in the name of harmony, and the villain felt that if he asked this Princess Zhenhe, he might know something......"
Before the words fell, Yu Jiuqing's voice suddenly sounded, "No! ”
Shen Qing was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked back, and saw that the handsome man didn't know when he walked out of the study, and that handsome face was rarely overflowing with obvious disgust.
It's a little late, and today's three watches are completed! Thank you for the reward and monthly pass of Da Mao Tao, is it a waste of money!
