    Huang Qinghe was stunned for a while because of Song Chengxuan's demeanor, and then said after a while: "What Mr. Song said isthe person who has been strictly investigating smuggling."

    For example.

    This Mr. Song.

    Huang Qinghe carefully considered matters related to Quanzhou.

    Many years ago, Quanzhou fought the Japanese pirates. Although they won the battle in the end, the Quanzhou navy was almost completely damaged.

    Therefore, Hong Chuanting, the current minister of the Ministry of War, repeatedly asked the court for soldiers and horses, and wanted to train a new navy for the court before the Japanese pirates came again. However, the courtiers were not optimistic about the navy.  Just like fighting against the aliens in the northern border, as long as they defend the city, those people will have nothing to do. It is best to avoid the trade at sea, so that it will be settled.

    Hong Chuanting reprimanded those people for not knowing the sufferings of the people along the coast, not to mention how much manpower and material resources it would take to build a city wall like that of northern Xinjiang.  The life of the people along the coast, besides, blindly giving in will only make the Japanese pirates despise Da Zhou even more.

    For the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty, building a city wall was more difficult than training a navy, so the court accepted Hong Chuanting's proposal, but the number of soldiers recruited was far from enough to form a navy.  Guarding the coastal line, General Shi, the commander-in-chief of the Quanzhou Navy, who is over seventy years old, runs the army very strictly. He has always personally led the troops to fight against Japanese pirates and pirates, which makes people have to admire.

    ?But when General Shi returned to his hometown, there was no suitable candidate to replace General Shi. Only one person wrote a letter willing to go to Quanzhou to serve.

    This person is Xue Chen, the commander-in-chief of the Quanzhou Navy.  As a scholar, he could only go in and out of the barracks to advise the commander. Although he played a big role in several battles, Xue Chen had always had a bad temper and would often conflict with the commander. Gradually, no one wanted to work with him.

    Xue Chen's own physical foundation is extremely poor, he can't gallop on the battlefield, he can only "talk on paper", and he can't lead the army alone. In this way, he becomes a useless person.

    Xue Chen was over forty years old at that time, and he seemed to be disheartened about his official career, so he went to Quanzhou by chance to travel around due to illness. He didn't know what happened to Xue Chen in Quanzhou.  Not only did he pay attention to government affairs again, but he also wrote eloquent memorials detailing the Quanzhou war situation. After General Shi retired, he repeatedly asked to see the emperor and asked the emperor to allow him to go to Quanzhou.

    Anyway, there is no suitable candidate, the emperor ordered Xue Chen to temporarily act as the commander of the navy, the whole court was very happy, everyone knew that the news of the old general Shi's departure had reached the Japanese pirates, and the Japanese pirates would definitely come to attack, whoever brought water  Teachers will be punished by the court if they lose a battle, and Xue Chen has taken the blame for them.

    Almost everyone concluded that Xue Chen would return home in defeat.

    Unexpectedly, Xue Chen not only won the battle, but also killed all the Japanese pirates who came, deterring the Japanese pirates and inspiring the spirit of the navy. Xue Chen's methods were even more ruthless than General Shi.  severe.

    In the next few years, the Quanzhou Navy became more and more powerful. No matter whether Japanese pirates or pirates, they should not be fooled under the eyes of the Quanzhou Navy. In the previous battle, more than 20 warships of the Japanese pirates were burned.  Spread throughout the week.

    From these incidents, we can see Quanzhou's attitude towards Japanese pirates and smuggling. If Dazhou is most determined to deal with smuggling merchants, they are them.

    After thinking about this, Huang Qinghe saluted Song Chengxuan: "Master Song, please give me some advice."

    The account that Sun Runan took out should be the reason why Master Sun Er was killed.

    That is, the accounts recorded are simple transactions of goods, and the goods on it are also things that are allowed to be bought and sold by the imperial court, such as rice, silk, cotton, jade, pearls, etc.

    Huang Qinghe handed the account to Song Chengxuan: "At the beginning, I also wanted to find the Sun family, Ding family, and Zhang family's involvement in the account, but I didn't find it."

    In other words, those involvements are not superficial.

    Huang Qinghe continued: "The Yan family started with jade, and the Sun family mainly sells silk and cloth. In recent years, there have been more gems and pearls."

    Song Chengxuan flipped through the accounts for a while before saying: "This account must be different from the other accounts of the Sun family. Merchants like the Sun family should have money and goods in and out every day, but this account is only recorded once a month."

    Huang Qinghe also discovered this: "Does it mean that the goods recorded in the accounts are veryfor special.  "

    Song Chengxuan said: "And the amount of goods recorded each time is extremely large."

    Huang Qinghe nodded.

    Song Chengxuan then asked: "Businessmen have their own rules for keeping accounts. What's the reason for Master Sun Er to do this?"

    Huang Qinghe thought about it: "Could it be that all the transactions of the month are recorded together?"

    "If it is really a monthly account, it should be recorded at the end of each month, but the time of this record is not fixed, especially in June, July, and August. For example, there was no record in June and July last year.  "

    Huang Qinghe didn't understand: "Then why?"

    "Because of the strong wind," Song Chengxuan raised his head, his eyes flickering slightly, "the strong wind and heavy rain hit, and no boat could go into the sea."

    Huang Qinghe exclaimed: "This book records the goods shipped in or out by sea."

    "The last account was recorded in January this year," Song Chengxuan said, "When did the first accident happen to the Sun family?"

    "At the end of February," Huang Qinghe remembered very clearly, "it was at the end of February." This is the connection between this account and this case.

    Huang Qinghe said: "But even if the Sun family trades goods at sea, these are not items strictly prohibited by the imperial court."

    Song Chengxuan took a sip of tea without saying a word.

    The room was quiet for a while, and Huang Qinghe kept thinking: "Although what he remembers is silk and spices, it is very likely that it is just a cover. They are not really buying and selling these things, but how do we prove  "

    "Master Huang doesn't need to prove it. He only needs the proof from the Sun family. Whether it is buying or selling, the Sun family must have a proof. As long as it can't be checked with the items in this account, there is a problem with the Sun family."

    Got it, this is the real secret of the Sun family.

    Song Chengxuan said: "Master Huang can also call that person for questioning."

    The person Mr. Song was referring to was the one who handed Mr. Song the silver soaked in seawater.

    "But Li Xu?" Huang Qinghe asked.

    Song Chengxuan did not deny it: "Master Huang is going to knock on the door of the Minister of the Ministry of Punishment tonight. If smuggling is involved, the court will treat it as a serious case, but what Master Huang did tonight is only the first step."

    Huang Qinghe naturally understood.

    "Master Huang has one more thing to do before going to the home of the Minister of Punishment."

    Huang Qinghe listened quietly.

    Song Chengxuan said: "Let her meet Jiang Zhiyi."

    She was referring to Miss Xu.

    Huang Qinghe was a little hesitant: "After all, it is the Shuntian Mansion Prison."

    Song Chengxuan hooked the corner of his mouth slightly: "I think adults can do it."

    Coming out of Shuntian Mansion, Song Chengxuan returned to the small courtyard.

    Zhenren Zhang was already waiting impatiently, and when he saw Song Chengxuan, he immediately said: "Xue the military master will definitely blame the young master. It would be a bit reckless to confront the Zhang family like this."

    Reckless?  Song Chengxuan raised his eyebrows, why didn't he feel it, but felt very happy.  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
