Section 133: Preparing for the Turkic War (13)
After figuring out these details, Liu Shan was not surprised why Lin Meng didn't cause trouble for him, but instead sent someone to help him.
It seems that I was still used by the Lin family this time.
However, Liu Shan had nothing to regret, and there was nothing to complain about. It was obvious that if he did not recover these materials at this time, these materials would be sold to the Turks in private. When these materials arrived at the Turks, the Turks would use these materials to attack themselves. It is a must to investigate and deal with the profiteering businessmen to recover the materials.
On the other hand, I cannot really break up with the Lin family. If I really break up, I will only be myself.
Anyway, there are so many supplies in your camp at this time, so you don’t have to worry about your future food. The benefits of reality are in front of you, so why don’t you do it?
To put it bluntly, investigating the promiscuous businessman at this time is actually a thing that is good for both the Lin family. The benefits are right in front of you, and the benefits of the Lin family are in the future. For win-win situations, why not do it? Moreover, by investigating the promiscuous businessman, you can also repair the previous rigid relationship with the Lin family. Although Liu Shan hated someone who made money in the national crisis and made money in the national crisis, Liu Shan was definitely not a reckless and ignorant person. At this time, the situation was stronger than others. When standing under the eaves, you should still bow your head when it was time to bow your head.
He was busy investigating profiteers and tracing materials until evening. With the help of Lin Meng, Liu Shan made things easier. Moreover, Lin Meng was still secretly helping him. Lin Meng was everywhere in Liangzhou. Even if a profiteer transfers materials, Lin Meng would soon know. Of course, Lin Meng would not be stupid enough to say that he would only send his confidants to dress up as people to report to Liu Shan.
Because he was afraid that some unscrupulous businessmen knew that the limelight was in a hurry, they urgently reselled their supplies. That night, the soldiers who had been busy for a day did not dare to rest and headed in all directions.
And that night, in Lin Feng's mansion, all the merchants investigated came to Lin Feng to complain.
Lin Feng showed a look of hating the sky and cursing Liu Shan in the lobby for a long time, with tears in the corner of his eyes, and he told him with great sorrow that thousands of trucks of grain had been investigated by Liu Shan.
Everyone also looked like they wanted to dig Liu Shan's bones and eat meat, but the Lin family was investigated. What could they do? How could they say that the military power in Liangzhou is in the hands of the Lin family?
Someone even asked Lin Feng to let Lin Meng come out to greet him in person, hoping to get the supplies back. Lin Feng was naturally unwilling to say that Liu Shan could not move, and Lin Meng was the general here, so he could not conflict with him openly.
Some people also proposed to buy murder. But Lin Feng looked at the person who was talking and then looked outside the lobby.
"He is in the camp where six thousand elite soldiers are stationed. You go and buy and kill him! Moreover, I can tell you that Liu Shan is a man with great martial arts skills. He dares to chase hundreds of Turkic cavalry alone, and kills Turkic people." Lin Feng carefully described what happened outside the city that night.
These merchants were completely desperate. They had high positions and powerful positions, extraordinary martial arts skills, and were surrounded by elite soldiers. They could not buy murderers, and it was even more impossible to attack Liu Shan’s tent openly.
"We can give him money to buy it, but I don't believe that officials don't like money." One person came up with another idea. If this idea is placed on ordinary officials, it will naturally be very effective, but when it comes to Liu Shan, it will be useless.
The merchants around him looked at him, as if they were looking at an idiot. They searched all their things, how much money they could give him, and what more supplies they could have.
"Then I'll give it to the beauty, I have a top player in Jianghualou." Someone asked this idea again. Lin Feng, the person who asked this idea, didn't even look at him.
Liu Shan has many beauties around him, and Jiang Hualou's top star is that his family is as beautiful as a fairy, and his daughter may not be able to be admired by his daughter.
After discussing for a long time, the merchants couldn't find a way to deal with Liu Shan. The man had a high position, and even Lin Meng dared not offend him. He didn't lack money, and no matter how much he gave, he didn't search more. He had high martial arts skills, and his killer could not kill him, and he was very likely to be killed. There were many beauties around him, and a mere top player was too lazy to look at him.
The merchants felt that they were just fish on the chopping board, and they were holding knives and chopping whatever they wanted.
He was busy until late at night, and the supplies in the camp were almost flooded. There were piles of food everywhere, including sacks and sacks, trucks of food, and some of them could not even be put down, so they were already placed outside the camp. Iron ore weapons also drowned Liu Shan's sight. In the very bottom of the camp, piles of salt and some things that were urgently needed during the war were piled up like sand dunes in the desert. When Liu Shan passed by, he had to look carefully at his feet, because the road had been flooded with the materials he had seized.
The soldiers in charge of statistics were busy and sweating profusely, and were at a loss for supplies like mountains. Liu Shan had to increase the number of people counting several times, and let them divide the labor and count.
In the place where Liu Shan lived, several large iron boxes were placed there. The boxes were extremely heavy. Liu Shan opened one casually, and it was full of gold and silver. These were all retrieved by Lin Meng's people. Liu Shan understood that this was Lin Meng's meaning. That is to say, we worked happily together, and you took the money to be my little intention. This is the first time Liu Shan has experienced it with other people's property as his wishes.
When Liu Shan finally finished his work and the soldiers were back late at night, Lin Meng came to Liu Shan alone. Seeing so many piles of goods, Lin Meng seemed to have no idea that he was the powerful backer of these profiteers. He scolded these profiteers like the boss. It was so ugly that a mouse would feel ashamed to hear it and slid into the hole. As long as someone with a little bit of shame, he would wish that a crack would grow on the ground so that he could hide it.
But the person who scolded this was the real person involved. Liu Shan also cursed Lin Meng as if he was unaware of it. The profitable businessmen harmed the country and the people, reselled state supplies, and the two generals cursed him. Then Lin Meng gave Liu Shan a list. When Liu Shan saw that the people on these list were all vendors who were seized. Moreover, Liu Shan noticed that most of the people on this were foreign vendors, and there were also local vendors, but not many. Liu Shan already understood why Lin Meng came here at this time.
"For these people who harm the country, brothers Liu Shan, we must not be lenient. They have searched their things. This is not enough to vent people's hatred. We should cut some heads to let them know our attitude towards cracking down on profiteers, and warn those who still have a hint of happiness to let them know that they are powerful. Since we have investigated, we must investigate it to the end. We will never tolerate these country's borers." Lin Meng's righteousness slammed and investigated them to the end, making Liu Shan wonder if he was the leader of profiteering businessmen. This obvious scene of thieves shouting to catch thieves made Liu Shan shout that even if he gave him one million, he would never do such a thing.
"General Lin, I will never be lenient in dealing with these people. Then we will deal with the matter of investigating these people and cutting these people's heads together. The general is familiar with this place, so don't shirk this great general."
"What happened in my place is my fault. I should have taken these things, but at this time, the Turks were immediately overwhelmed by a large army, and I really couldn't get away. However, as long as brother Liu Shan wants someone to ask for things, as long as I give me a greeting, I will send them here immediately to investigate the great task of these people. I hope Brother Liu Shan will not refuse."
"Damn, you might as well just say that I can do all the things that offend these people alone." Liu Shan cursed in his heart.
Liu Shan understood that although he had investigated these people's things at this time, the truly powerful people did not touch them at all. They lost nothing but some money. Moreover, selling things to the Turks alone could not be said in public. When their things were investigated, they would just eat coptis chinensis and know the taste. He offended them, but he also injured their skin, and he and they were not yet dead. Taking a step back, if such things were exposed, they would not cry and complain to the powerful men of their second sister-in-law and aunt. After all, their powerful relatives were not fools, and they knew what they were doing.
I am a prince on the surface, and a king of Qin secretly. Everyone is more concerned about it. They are not worth competing with me for some illegal things that require them to lose their heads. Besides, they are also afraid that if they really compete and shake everything here, they will not be able to live a good life.
But once a person dies, it is not a joke. Liu Shan understands that no one on this piece of paper can really offend him. If he really kills all these people, he will probably be opposite to most of the Tang Dynasty courts. The family, country and the world are now in the early years of the Tang Dynasty. Liu Shan is still clear about what the meaning of family is. If he cut off other people's business, it is a forced one. Even if someone investigates it, he can handle it. But killing a relative of a powerful family will be the ending of death.
Liu Shan understood the reason why he could stop, so Liu Shan readily agreed to Lin Meng's affairs. After Lin Meng left, he tore the paper with his hands.
