Chapter 18 Moth - Golden Tooth (Three Thousand Words)

Like in Quanzhou, Li Zhen did not land at the dock for the sake of not disturbing the people, but directly drove the fleet into the naval base. However, even so, he did not escape the eyes of some people...

"My minister Fang Yiai, I have seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. I haven't seen him for several years. How can the Crown Prince be safe?" Luzon's Grand Protector was Fang Yiai. After all, he has not become a navy. After all, no matter how much he said, he can be regarded as the star of the army. How could such a talented army boss let go?

But seeing that he had no war and was depressed all day long, Li Zhen felt a little unbearable. It happened that the Protectorate of the Luzon Protectorate was indecisive due to the struggle between all parties, so Li Zhen simply recommended Fang Yiai. Anyway, with his military achievements, he was worthy of being the Protectorate.

Moreover, because the rights of the arch-master are not as good as the governor, and only the military power is not as powerful as governor, no one stands up to oppose it. They give Fang Xuanling the face, and do not attack him because of this, nor force him to get out of class. Although even if they attack, Li Shimin would not give up Fang Xuanling, the right-hand man.

After all, since Du Ruhui died, Wei Zheng's health has been in poor health. He has been recuperating at home most of the time. Fang Xuanling is now the only person Li Shimin can absolutely trust. Although Changsun Wuji makes up his seat in time and young talents such as Ma Zhou have also come up, Li Shimin is not very relieved about them. It is okay to use it, but it is impossible to communicate with each other.

"Fang Jun, Fang Jun, what are you talking nonsense?" Fang Yiai had just brewed a little emotion, and Cheng Chuliang stood up and ruined the atmosphere: "You went back to Lingnan to report your duties to the Prince of Prince last year, and we have met, why haven't you seen each other for several years?"

"Hey, you little fairy Cheng, what do you mean?" Fang Yiai was not afraid of Cheng Chuliang. He raised his eyebrows when he heard this: "I have seen Your Highness, but hasn't your Highness been to our Luzon for a long time? It's not wrong to say that-but you, we haven't seen each other for so long, what does it mean to ask me for trouble when you come up? What? Do you want to fight?"

This was just like Cheng Chuliang's intention. He took off his outer robe and rolled his sleeves and stood up: "Fight? OK, come on, I'm just about to compete with you."

"Stop it all, after all, they are top officers in the Tang Dynasty. Why are they so immature? Why are they still children's temperament? Don't you see what occasion is now?" Li Zhen looked at the two people who were pinching each other when they met, and was a little amused. Although he knew that this was a meeting etiquette for men, now is not the time to let them do it.

Fang Yiai couldn't fight when he saw the fight: "Hmph, for the sake of Your Highness, I'll spare you this time."

"Fuck, I should have said this." Cheng Chuliang did not give him any face.

"Okay." Li Zhen loudly stopped the two people who failed to fight and changed to a bickering: "Fang Yiai, you should have received all the previous orders from this palace, right? How are you preparing?"

"Your Highness, do you really have to attack there?" Fang Yiai asked with some concern: "Although my subordinates have obtained enough evidence, it is a whole area..."

"Don't worry about this. This time I came here to eradicate this cancer." Li Zhen said coldly, but he had made up his mind to remove the cancer that was parasitic on the Tang Dynasty.

"Your Highness, I don't understand why you should take action at this time?" Cheng Chuliang next to him was very difficult to understand: "In theory, everything was the easiest to solve at the beginning. As a result, you not only did not stop it after discovering it, but also let it develop. Now that the general situation is already complete, the cost of taking action at this time will be too high."

"Don't worry about this, this palace naturally has its own reasons. You just need to follow your own orders." Li Zhen did not explain too much - yes, his main goal this time was to destroy the black market located here.

In fact, as Cheng Chuliang said, the black market in Coconut Port was discovered by spies under Li Zhen as early as the establishment, but he never cared about it. Not only did he not deal with it, but he also participated in it himself, selling part of the equipment replaced by the imperial court through the black market, making a lot of profits. Now Li Zhen’s spokesperson in the black market is the most famous tycoon in the black market in Coconut Port.

However, although he made a lot of money through the black market, Li Zhen never gave up on the plan to destroy the black market. The reason why he did not take action immediately was because Li Zhen knew that the black market could not be destroyed. Even if he destroyed the black market in Coconut Port today, a second black market would be established in Borneo tomorrow. After all, compared with the normal market, the black market makes more money. For profit, those desperate people can even take their lives, so how could they be afraid of the black market? So this kind of thing is simply endless.

Therefore, Li Zhen simply did the opposite. Not only did he not destroy the place, but he slowly cultivated it in secret, turning it into the largest black market in the Nanyang Islands. Then, after the black market is completely mature and all the people from the underworld gather, he will eliminate it in one fell swoop. This is as if he is treating poisonous sores. When the poisonous sores just broke out, it is not the best time to treat them. Instead, after the poisonous sores are completely purified, they can squeeze out all the pus more easily.

...

When he arrived at the naval base and had just settled down, Li Zhen called his spokesperson who supported him in Luzon.

"Golden teeth have met the master, but haven't seen him for several years. Are you all right?" A fat man with fat body and mouthful of gold teeth knelt down when he saw Li Zhen and greeted him excitedly.

He is the spokesperson for Li Zhen's support in the black market. No one cares about his name, and he himself doesn't remember it. He only knows that his code name is Jinya, a dog raised by his master. He had his master supported him before, and he lived a life of being a good man. Now even if the master takes his life, he admits it - however, his real identity is actually one of the most mysterious organization "Moth" under Li Zhen's command. The real code name is actually "Poison Moth". Jinya is just fooling outsiders (as mentioned about this organization before, Zhu Yunrang is a "Moth" person, code name "Pu Ling Moth". There are not many people inside, but each of them is a stunning and beautiful person. They are the absolute team that Li Zhen has collected from the people and cultivated for his future).

The reason why Jinya claimed to be Li Zhen's dog is another reason - Li Zhen once saved their family's life, and since then he sold his life to Li Zhen, and even refused to consider himself as a subordinate.

"I heard you're doing a good job here?" Jinya also has a nickname in the black market, called Daya Jin. He is known as Jin Ye. He is one of the few people in the black market who are very good at hand and eyes. He claims to be able to get anything. This is indeed true. With Li Zhen's support behind his back, this claim is indeed not an exaggeration - at least that cannon was ordered by Li Zhen to sell it. It was this cannon that completely made Daya's reputation sounded and won the respect of all black people. At least there are many people engaged in the black market. However, except for Daya, no one can get a weapon like a cannon.

Hearing Li Zhen’s praise, Big Jinya narrowed her eyes and said, “Hehe, it’s all for the master’s blessing, Jinya is doing well.”

"Okay, don't be beautiful. Did I want you to get something?" Li Zhen said angrily. Although this Jinya looks stupid, he has real skills. In fact, there is no doubt that those who can be selected into the moth can be selected. If they really want to exert their abilities, everyone can at least be able to be a minister. Even if they have the talent of the prime minister, it is not surprising that these talents are the real team left by Li Zhen for himself. To put it bluntly, even if Li Zhen fails in the battle for the throne in the future, as long as he can escape at that time, with the assistance of these people, he can still rebuild an empire overseas.

This golden tooth is no exception. Otherwise, it would be impossible for a single horse to make a breakthrough in the underground black market that is known as being cannibalistic. You should know that except for some of the support from some scarce materials, Li Zhen has not given him any help. The rest of the scenes were all achieved by himself, which shows how extraordinary his abilities are.

"Your Highness, you are all here." Jinya took out a note and introduced: "This is just a catalog. The real material Jinya has been placed outside. Your Highness can check it at any time. The materials record all the information on the Coconut Port black market over the years. I even checked the details of each transaction order clearly. I will keep your Highness from scratch and will not miss anyone."

"You have the intention, this table is very important to me." Li Zhen was moved when he heard this. It can be said that with this table, Li Zhen may even clear out more than 90% of the entire Tang Dynasty's criminal organizations in one fell swoop - and this also proves the terribleness of Jinya. He has penetrated the entire black market to this level by his own efforts. Not only did everyone and forces in the black market investigate clearly, but even merchants doing business with the black market have been figured out by him. It can be said that if Li Zhen really arrested people according to this list, then there would be at least tens of thousands of people who were betrayed and executed...

Such a major matter, even if Li Zhen dared not make a decision easily, he had to go back and discuss with Li Shimin before talking - of course, this black market still had to be solved. Now this black market has become a cancer attached to the Tang Dynasty. Every year because of this black market, the Tang Dynasty earned at least one million taels of silver tax. However, this time, Li Zhen only planned to capture the people in the black market. As for those black market customers who are free from the outside, it should be solved slowly, and one day it will be completely eliminated.
