Chapter 532: The Case
The resident of the Three Laws Investigation Team brought by Shao Ziheng was arranged to the Guangzhou Jinyiwei Commander Office.
Who makes the security and confidentiality here the best?
After all, even the palace is known to be airtight, let alone the Guangdong Provincial Government Office.
When Chen Jinghe came here, Shao Ziheng had just finished his day's interrogation work.
“What’s going on?”
"What did Li Yanzong and Zhu Youjiong pull out?"
Facing Chen Jinghe's hurrying inquiry, Shao Ziheng was happy.
"What are you anxious about? It's only been two days."
Chen Jinghe forced a smile, but did not dare to express his concerns. Fortunately, Shao Ziheng didn't keep it in his arms. After he called Chen Jinghe to sit down, he talked about the progress of the case.
"Li Yanzong and Zhu Youjiong are not hard-working. Although our three courts do not have masters like Hu Yidao now, and they don't need to be punished. However, if you know the feelings and move them with reason, you can still solve the case."
"According to Li Yanzong's testimony, the earliest planting of hibiscus flowers in Dongguan County was the instruction of Li Shuhong, the head of the Li family. It has been nearly ten years since then. With this item alone, the Li family has made about 30 billion yuan."
"With Li Yanzong's confession and testimony, we can capture Li Shuhong at any time."
"In addition, according to Zhu Youjiong's confession, the rise of drugs in Guangdong in recent years is indeed the reasons behind the South India Company and the Manuel Chamber of Commerce.
However, the opening of Pearl Harbor is not just for domestic drug sales, but more importantly, it is to evade tariffs and large-scale smuggling."
"Since the currency reform, domestic prices have risen rapidly in recent years, and import demand has increased. As we all know, our Zhongzhou's foreign imports rely on South Indian companies and Arab chambers of commerce.
However, due to the tariffs, the South India Company and the Manuel Chamber of Commerce did not make much money, so the two joint ventures selected a location in Dongguan County and built the current Pearl Harbor."
"In addition to smuggling and drug trafficking, there are also slave trafficking."
"There are still many poor people in our Zhongzhou. Inland provinces, especially in the northwest and southwest, there are many poor households who are so poor that they cannot afford to lose money. Many people sell their daughters for their sons to get married.
In the past, I sold it to people from the same village. Of course, I said it was inaccurate. In fact, it should be to get married and exchange for betrothal gifts."
"A daughter's betrothal gift of tens of thousands."
"But our daughter in Zhongzhou is a little pretty, but the local nobles in Europa have already given away fifty to one hundred gold coins.
It will be a few million or more profitable for slave traders."
"This is even more terrifying than drug trafficking, smuggling, etc. Do you think how many of these capitalists can control themselves in the face of such returns?"
"In addition to buying pornographic daughters, these people also searched for brothels everywhere in six provinces in Jiangnan to buy prostitutes.
Prostitutes are pretty and mostly homeless. Although domestic abolition slaves and prostitutes are no longer goods from brothels, the government will not investigate the brothels if no one reports the office.”
"Even if someone reported the case, the government investigated it, alas, it was just a matter of dealing with it."
"Official governments in many provinces are closely related to the Arab Chamber of Commerce. After all, the latter represents investment and political achievements. How can we continue to investigate collusion between officials and businessmen?"
"Just a mere prostitute."
After listening to Shao Ziheng's words, Chen Jinghe fell into silence and sighed for a long time.
"Mencius has called the people for three thousand years the most important thing. To this day, the lives of the people are still like grass.
Collusion between officials and businessmen, life can be exchanged for rich returns in their eyes, and wealth is real."
Shao Ziheng also sighed heavily and then said seriously.
"Don't worry, we will not let any of these corrupt officials and businessmen who violate the national law."
"When will my uncle attack the Li family?"
"In the past two days, once the evidence is fixed, you will immediately take it."
Chen Jinghe said, "If my uncle has time tomorrow, he might as well send someone to find Chen Jiading secretly. He has a lot of evidence in his hand."
"Chen Jiading?" Shao Ziheng frowned slightly: "Can you trust?"
"Don't worry, the Chen family has been in contact with their father over the years. A lot of information from Guangdong is not just the Jinyiwei reporting to their father."
"Okay, I'll contact them."
After Shao Ziheng finished speaking, he looked at Chen Jinghe's expression and said something concern.
"What's wrong? I always feel restless."
Facing his own uncle, Chen Jinghe hesitated for a while and still expressed his worries.
"It's not because of Yaxi."
"Yaxi? What did she do?"
"She asked me today if I could open a port for the Medici Chamber of Commerce first."
As soon as he said this, Shao Ziheng became serious.
"Does there any crime clues in Pearl Harbor involve the Medici Chamber of Commerce?"
Shao Ziheng shook his head and said, "Not found yet, I have organized a comprehensive investigation of the entire Pearl Harbor Port area.
Neither physical nor personal evidence nor evidence, there was any evidence to the Medici Chamber of Commerce. It seemed that they were just doing banking business, not involving trade, and had no connection with Pearl Harbor."
"Since that's the case, why does Yaxi care about Pearl Harbor?"
Chen Jinghe raised his confusion: "This girl is the major shareholder of the Medici Chamber of Commerce."
"Unless." Shao Ziheng pondered for a while and said, "Unless someone finds Cosimo."
“There is this possibility.”
Chen Jinghe nodded: "If this is the case, then we should try to handle this case as quickly as possible and make it a solid case."
No one that should be arrested should be let go. What trouble does this foreigner, Cosimo, have to do anything to do? You know this girl, Yaxi, is very spoiled.
If you make a big lady's temper, you will come to you and make a fuss."
Shao Ziheng immediately smiled bitterly: "Then I'm afraid I'm going to have a headache."
"Who doesn't say that, you can't beat him, you can't scold him."
Chen Jinghe also held his forehead helplessly: "The father was furious to Yaxi. My younger brothers and sisters all refer to marriages, but Yaxi is the husband's family he is looking for.
No matter what this girl does, my father not only indulged indifferently, but also kept her under hiding her. If it weren't for our twins, I would have doubted whether I was my biological child."
"What nonsense is talking nonsense."
Shao Ziheng laughed and scolded: "You brother and sister are both the king's heart, so there is no reason not to love you."
"Anyway, I am the one who is a brother, and I have no choice but to do anything to her."
Chen Jinghe spread his hands as he cheated: "If she looks for me again later, I will push you everything and let her make trouble for you."
"No, no, no, no." Shao Ziheng waved his hands repeatedly: "My place is already busy enough. Prince, please pity your uncle, my old bones."
"You are less than fifty years old, so why are you talking about old age?"
"But your cousin's little bastard, I haven't even married my wife yet, and I haven't even held my grandson."
The father and the father looked at each other and then they both laughed.
