Chapter 335: Investigation Mission
When Ling Feng heard this, he knew that it was Zheng Dongliu, so he said, "Please let him in!"
The executioner glanced at Zhong Zhenwei again, and when he saw the latter nodding, he said yes and turned away. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Immediately, Zheng Dongliu came in, hugged his fists and said: "Zheng has seen Lin Daxia, Mr. Zhong and the two deputy dart heads!"
"No need to be polite!"
Zhong Zhenwei said with a smile, and immediately hugged his fists at Ling Feng and said, "Zheng Zhu, I'm afraid that there is something important to tell you, so let's retreat first." ”
Ling Feng originally had no intention of doing this, but when he saw Zheng Dongliu's eyes, he hugged his fists and said, "Thank you, big brother!"
Immediately, the three of them left, and Zheng Dongliu hugged his fists and said: "Lin Daxia, I'm afraid this challenge can only be done!"
Ling Fengqi said, "Why is this?"
Zheng Dongliu said: "Changping Dacang is short of grain Bai Wanshi, almost an empty shell, the governor is furious, ordered a thorough investigation, and the case must be solved within seven days." Lord Yu is investigating this case, I'm afraid I don't have time to compete!"
Ling Feng suddenly realized that this matter of grain and grass has always been valued by the imperial court, and Bai Wanshi's grain disappeared without a trace, not just a matter of a million taels of silver tickets. In the event of a famine, and the position is empty, the price of food will soar, and it will inevitably lead to resentment, and it is no wonder that the governor will be angry.
"Can you tell me more about it, maybe I can help. ”
This matter is about the people, and Ling Feng is also ready to contribute, and he also hates those corrupt officials.
Zheng Dongliu looked a little hesitant, he told Ling Feng the news, it was already a violation, if the progress of the case was leaked again, what consequences would be triggered, even Song Tianhao would not be able to protect him.
At this time, Ling Feng took out a white token and handed it to him.
Zheng Dongliu took a closer look, and this token was engraved with Wulongsi, and there was a line of small characters below it, fourth-class and a line of numbers. On the other side is a lifelike white dragon.
After reading it, he immediately determined Ling Feng's identity as the White Dragon Guard, and hurriedly returned the token to Ling Feng, and said with a respectful expression: "Subordinates see your lord!"
Although the Five Dragons Division and the Six Doors are directly under the jurisdiction of the Emperor, the authority of the Five Dragons Guard is much heavier than that of the Six Gates, and once they encounter someone who is a threat to the imperial court, they can be cut first and then played, let alone those who do not have an official body!
After Zheng Dongliu knew Ling Feng's identity, he no longer had any doubts, so he explained the case in detail.
The reason why this case happened was also a coincidence, the new warehouse manager took over, and on the day of the handover, he inspected the granaries that were full, but the next day he found that most of the granaries were empty. The warehouse manager was in a panic for a long time and was about to report the case, but the governor's palace had received an anonymous report and sent troops to take him.
It's just that Governor Wei Ruiyang is not such a foolish person, this warehouse official has only been in office for a few days, how can he have the ability to transfer so much grain? This must have been a deficit a long time ago, and the previous warehouse official deceived this fool with a trick, so he sent someone to get the previous warehouse official, but the person ran away early. So, the Governor ordered six doors to be thoroughly investigated!
Ling Feng pondered for a long time before he said: "This matter must have nothing to do with the three major families, and only they have the ability to quietly transport these grains away!"
But the specific one, or even those ones, is impossible to trace. Because the main messenger behind the scenes must have dealt with the tail of the hand, and the warehouse official who escaped may have been killed.
"What the adults said is very true, and Lord Yu also thinks so, except for them, no one has the courage to directly empty the granary!"
Zheng Dongliu nodded, a little convinced in his heart, maybe he could really investigate the truth.
Ling Feng thought for a moment, and then said, "You first go to check the acting cangguan, see what officials he has been in contact with, and determine his background." You go to check the rice shop on the market again, and see which of the three great families opened a rice shop that used to put a lot of grain in the time of the famine. This Bai Wanshi grain must have been sold from these rice shops, keep an eye on it, and you can always find clues!"
When the grain is harvested, one stone of rice is only a few hundred copper coins, and the lowest is not even 200 yuan, which is almost equivalent to a penny and a pound of rice. But in the year of famine, one stone of rice can buy more than 2,000, or even 3,000 copper coins (3 taels). The huge difference in the middle is a huge amount of income, and it is no wonder that some people can't resist the temptation!
And many people must have been impressed by the fact that so much rice was sold in the year of the famine, and as long as they were patient, they could always find clues.
Moreover, this kind of behavior of collecting grain when it is cheap, selling it when it is expensive, and earning huge profits does not start this year, it must have lasted for many years, as long as you check it carefully, you can always find out!
When Zheng Dongliu heard this, he suddenly had a trace of confidence in his heart, and said, "Yes, it's just that this matter is reported to Master Yu?"
Ling Feng shook his head and said: "The matter he is responsible for investigating the case can't be hidden from the three major families, he must have been monitored, and it will be a little difficult to find out something." You have to find out in secret, and if there is any news, I will take action myself!"
"Yes, sir!"
Zheng Dongliu was convinced, and then left.
At this time, a system prompt sounded in Ling Feng's ears: "Congratulations to the player, you have triggered the investigation task, find out the truth of the case, and recover the deficit of Bai Wanshi rice, you can get 20,000 chivalrous points!"
Ling Feng was a little hesitant, it was somewhat possible to find out the truth, but it would be a little troublesome to recover the lost Bai Wanshi grain. In case the mission fails, the upper limit of 10,000 chivalrous points will be deducted. However, he thought about it and decided to accept it, after all, it was impossible for the system to give him tasks that could not be completed. In other words, there will definitely be a way to recover this white Wanshi rice!
At this time, Zhong Zhenwei, the head of the dart, and Qiu Qingming, Dong Liang, the deputy head of the dart, came in.
Zhong Zhenwei looked concerned and said, "Brother Xian, nothing happened, right?"
Ling Feng smiled bitterly: "Don't hide it from the eldest brother, there is a big case, Yu Suiyun is busy solving the case, and he asked someone to throw away my challenge book casually!"
Zhong Zhenwei was stunned, and then said: "This matter is no wonder to adults, after all, it is important to solve the case." However, Lord Yu is a famous arrest in Cangzhou, and there are many big and important cases that have been solved, it should not be long, it should not be long, it is better to live in my mansion, and when the case is solved, we will learn again!"
......
At the same time, the headquarters of the Six Doors, the deepest part of the prison is the death penalty.
The prisoners here are all condemned prisoners, and almost all of them are important prisoners, and ordinary criminals are not eligible to be held here.
An old man with a white beard was tied to a cross-like stake, his white prison clothes crisscrossed with bloodstains.
Next to him, a Tsing Yi catcher was still whipping.
Not far away, a handsome young man in a blue robe with a strange face sat on a chair, as if unconscious, grinding his nails. This is the head catcher in charge of the interrogation, his name is Shui Ruoyun, his name is gentle like water, but he is an extremely ruthless person, and under his interrogation, there are few criminals who are not recruited.
The old man shouted a few times at first, but then he was completely silent, but he fainted.
