Chapter 1335 Locking the target(2/2)
Strictly speaking, Lamin is actually a heroic spirit and a type of ghost. Therefore, eating is a habit of his life and he can enjoy the taste of delicious food. However, if he does not eat for ten days and a half, there will be no problem.
of.
Therefore, while Fang Linyan was eating, he went to investigate the news about Jiuguiyuan. After Fang Linyan finished the sukiyaki he ordered, he hurried back to report:
"Master, Jiugui Yuan is quite famous in the port. In addition to smuggling arms, he also sells drugs, and the way he smuggles arms is even more incredible."
Fang Linyan said:
"Oh, how incredible is that?"
Laming lowered his voice and said:
"He received the goods from the warships, then hoarded them. After reaching a certain amount, he sold them back through his connections in the armaments department."
At this time, a dirty child came panting from a distance and handed Lamin a bamboo tube. Lamin took out a banknote and gave it to him.
That bamboo tube is a very common thing in the market, and usually contains two rice balls. The workers and farmers here treat it like this at noon, so it doesn't look suspicious.
However, after Laming opened the bamboo tube under cover, he took out a piece of paper. After reading it hastily, he said:
"Tokugawa Shinobu sent me detailed information about the smuggling of Kukigen. Master, do you want to hear it?"
Fang Linyan was a little shocked at this time and said:
"Did you and Tokugawa Shinobu communicate only through a child? And you still wrote so directly?"
Laming smiled and said:
"Master, this is not the era you live in. This is Japan at the end of the 17th century AD! No one has any sense of counter-espionage. Even the Xuanyang Society now mainly focuses on incitement and assassination, although it has also begun to collect some intelligence
, but the energy is basically not focused on this.”
"What's more, we just make one vote and leave. We don't need to consider future sustainable development issues. The measures I have taken are enough."
Fang Linyan nodded and said:
"Okay, let's listen to the professionals and let's talk about the news revealed by Tokugawa Shinobu."
Laming said:
"The list of things Kukigen smuggled last time is as follows: one 57mm machine gun, thirty 150mm shells, sixteen 201mm shells, and four torpedoes, totaling 113,600 yen."
Fang Linyan said in surprise:
"Where do these things come from?"
Laming said:
"Of course it came from the warship. Oh, of course, according to the official training records, the ammunition must have been consumed by live fire, and the machine gun was destroyed by the explosion."
"Huh?" Fang Linyan's eyes widened after hearing this. He never expected that such a thing would happen!!
After he thought about it, he suddenly understood:
"Then General Jiugui Yuan will save these arms. For example, after he saves them to a certain base, he will use the inside line of the armaments department to sell them to the fleet! The price will definitely be lower than buying them from Western arms dealers."
"During this process, the insiders in the armaments department made a lot of money. Not only did they get a kickback from the process, but they were also appreciated by their superiors - spending a small amount of money to do big things! Jiuguiyuan made a profit, and the purchase price of these ammunition must be far higher.
