Chapter 1944
As one of the largest cities in the Haihan Kingdom, after several years of construction and development under the rule of Haihan, Danzhou's current population size has even surpassed Haikou City, another big city in Qiongbei, and is second only to the capital Sanya.The cultural industry, regarded as a local signature, has also grown along with the prosperity of the city. Today, there are as many as thousands of students enrolled in various academies alone, and this has led to the development of publishing, tourism, transportation and other industries.
In addition to the pillar industry of culture and education, the scale of agricultural production in the Danzhou area has also grown rapidly in recent years because it has a large area of coastal plains and is rarely attacked by typhoons at sea.Today, Danzhou has a very large planting area of food crops, tropical fruits and economic crops, and is one of the most important agricultural production areas in Haihan State.
The prosperity of the economy has brought a large number of floating population to Danzhou, who either study or work here, or come here to invest and start a business, or even simply visit this place. More and more people regard Danzhou as their own. destination.
Danzhou has also formulated some corresponding civil regulations for the increase of migrant population, so as to implement effective monitoring and management of these floating population.However, due to the limited staffing of official agencies, many regulations cannot be fully implemented. Even in Danzhou City, many places are still outside the supervision.
For example, the bazaar in the north of Danzhou City gathers all kinds of agricultural products from Sandu Town, Eman Town, Mutang Town, Guangcun Town, Zhonghe Town and other places in the north of Danzhou, and sells them to the South China Sea through this market. everywhere.Thousands of people enter this market every day, and the limited number of market managers alone cannot effectively register the identities of so many outsiders, so the relevant regulations are actually useless.
After Xue Zheng and his party arrived in Danzhou, they went straight to the bazaar in the north of the city. Some of them had lived in Danzhou for a while and were familiar with the local conditions, so they recommended this place that fit their current identities.
Of course, they didn't really come here to do food business, but came here to find a way to collect the information they needed.Although this place is a bazaar with agricultural products as its main business content, it is not only people who buy and sell agricultural products who do business here.Like other places in the world, as long as there are a lot of people and money, there will always be some gray business, and Danzhou under Haihan's rule is no exception.
When Xue Zheng and his party arrived at the bazaar, they first looked for a place to park their carriages and horses, and then divided them into two groups. One group went to contact local people who specialize in underground business, and the other group followed Xue Zheng to a nearby Teahouse and other news.
After a while, the people who went to work went to the teahouse to meet Xue Zheng, saying that the other party could provide help, but they needed to meet Xue Zheng for a detailed discussion.This is undoubtedly a very dangerous move, and Xue Zheng is not sure whether the other party will betray him. After all, what he wants to do in Danzhou is not as simple as reselling grain or other in-demand supplies. If there is an insider outside, they may not dare to keep the secret for Xue Zheng and his gang.
"Is the other party reliable?" Although he knew that it was difficult to have a definite answer to this question, Xue Zheng still hoped to use this to increase his confidence in the current situation.
The subordinate who came back and responded in a low voice: "This person's reputation in the local area is not bad. As far as I know, someone committed a crime and was wanted by the Haihan Yamen before, so he bought a way of life with money from him. They were sent away at sea. Moreover, there were a few lieutenants of the Ming army in this family, who led troops to resist when the Haihan people occupied Danzhou. The festival is quite deep."
Xue Zheng murmured: "Since he has no power and no family property, how did this person survive in Danzhou and manage such an industry that requires connections?"
The subordinate replied: "I really don't know about this... villain, but this person has a wide network, even if it is news in the yamen, as long as you spend money, you can find out. There are also some things that are not easy to buy in the market. , you can also get it with money from him.”
Xue Zheng sneered and said, "So powerful? Can guns be obtained?"
The subordinate hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said: "The other party said that as long as the price is in place, we can discuss everything. Even the artillery on the warship can be obtained with money."
"So powerful? Could it be that you are bragging!" Xue Zheng was dubious about this. He knew that Haihan's control over arms was extremely strict. felony.The other party actually boasted that even naval guns could be obtained, Xue Zheng couldn't help but wonder if his subordinates had found a liar who could only boast.
"The villain thinks there is something to be said... Boss, why don't you go and see for yourself, the other party has some knowledge." But his subordinates insisted on the reliability of this unknown channel.
Xue Zheng looked at this subordinate. This person has been working with him for three or four years. He insisted that there should be some special reasons.
"Then how to meet the other party?" Xue Zheng knew that this kind of person would definitely not appear in public easily, otherwise, even if he hadn't been arrested by the authorities, he would have been killed dozens of times because of various conflicts of interest.To meet each other, there must be some special channels.
The subordinate replied: "The other party's carriage is waiting outside, but they request that only one person can go to the appointment. If someone follows secretly, this business will not be completed."
"It's quite careful!" Xue Zheng snorted and said, "Forget it, then I'll go meet for a while to see what kind of extraordinary person he is! You just wait here and don't make trouble."
Xue Zheng casually got out of the teahouse, and saw a black-covered carriage parked by the side of the road.The coachman had sent Xue Zheng's subordinates over earlier, when he saw two people coming out, he took the initiative to lift the curtain and said: "Only one person can get on the coach."
Xue Zheng responded, bent down and lowered his head to get into the car, but never thought that there was another person in the car, handed him a black cloth bag, made a gesture of putting his head on, and said in his mouth: "I've offended you!"
Xue Zheng took the cloth bag and didn't move, the man looked at him without urging him, and the carriage also stopped in place.Xue Zheng knew that he couldn't stand against the opponent, so he could only put a cloth bag on his head to cover his sight according to the opponent's intention.At this time, the person in the carriage knocked on the carriage twice, and then the carriage started to move slowly.
Although wearing a hood, he can't know the surrounding situation, but Xue Zheng is also experienced in the world. He pays attention to recording the road while listening to the movement outside the car. He feels that as long as the place is not too far away, even if he is blindfolded, he can use his sense of direction. Find an opportunity to confirm its location at a later date.
But the other party was obviously on guard, the carriage didn't go far before it started to turn around non-stop, until Xue Zheng was dizzy and couldn't remember how many times he turned, and the carriage finally stopped.
"please."
After getting permission, Xue Zheng took off the cloth bag on his head and got out of the carriage. He found himself in a building similar to a warehouse. Under the dim light, he could see the bulging linen bags piled up around him Like a mountain, it looks like it may be a warehouse for storing some kind of food crops.He could still faintly hear human voices coming from outside the warehouse. Xue Zheng thought that this place should still be near the bazaar, but it was really hard to tell the difference between the southeast and the north.
Xue Zheng looked at the groom, and the groom raised the whip in his hand and pointed forward. Xue Zheng looked intently, and there was a narrow passage in the dark ahead, so he walked quickly.At the end of this passage is an inconspicuous wooden door. Xue Zheng knocked on the copper ring on the door, and after a while, someone came to open the door.
"Search, I'm offended!" The person who opened the door didn't wait for Xue Zheng to respond, he reached out to touch Xue Zheng's body, and then searched away the short guns and daggers he was carrying.Xue Zheng wanted to have a fit, but the janitor was a head taller than him and as strong as a bear. He might be able to take care of him with one hand, so he could only swallow his loss at the moment.
"I will return the things to you when you leave, go in!" The gatekeeper expressed his satisfaction with Xue Zheng's cooperation, and waved his hand to signal him to continue walking inside.
Xue Zheng continued to walk forward, and there was another wooden door in front of him, but there was no buckle on this door, but there was a big word "push". Xue Zheng stretched out his hand like this and pushed it. Sure enough, the door was only half-hidden, and he pushed it lightly. opened.He stepped into the door, but saw that it was a rather elegant study room, and the walls were full of bookshelves as tall as a person, filled with all kinds of books.
However, Xue Zheng was not interested in the things on the bookshelf. He stared at the figure sitting behind the desk at the other end of the study. Looking at myself.
"Your Excellency is Mr. Huo." Xue Zheng couldn't help but greeted first.
Xue Zheng's subordinates used to work in Danzhou, had dealt with this mysterious Mr. Huo, and highly respected him, so this time when they went to Danzhou to work, that subordinate recommended this special man to Xue Zheng. The character thought that the other party might be able to provide some special "help" in dealing with the North Koreans. After obtaining Xue Zheng's consent, he first contacted here, and then Mr. Huo sent a car to pick Xue Zheng up.Of course, the "help" that Xue Zheng needs will not be provided for free. This Mr. Huo is not doing charity, and the services he can provide are all expensive.
Xue Zheng still has doubts about Mr. Huo's ability, but if they want to do something in Danzhou next, they must have some key information to increase their confidence, such as the itinerary of the North Koreans in Danzhou.It must be difficult for outsiders like them to find out this kind of internal information, but if they can buy information from local snakes like Mr. Huo, they may be able to prepare in advance, so that they will not be in a hurry like Changhua take action.
The person on the opposite side responded: "It's Huo, I heard that Boss Xue wants to do something different in Danzhou?"
"I heard that Mr. Huo has many special contacts in the local area, so I also want to ask for help." Xue Zheng said straight to the point: "If Mr. Huo can help me, then the remuneration is not a problem."
Mr. Huo smiled slightly and said: "It seems that Boss Xue has a lot of money, and he plans to do a big business locally."
Although Xue Zheng wasn't short of money, he didn't want to be taken advantage of by the other party, so he responded immediately: "Money is not a problem, but it also depends on whether the help provided by Mr. Huo is really valuable."
"Don't worry, if you can afford it, I can give you what you want." Mr. Huo was obviously full of confidence, and immediately reached out and tapped on the desk lightly: "Boss Xue, tell me what you want."
Xue Zheng was silent for a moment before he opened his mouth and said: "A foreign dignitary will visit Danzhou in the next few days. I need his detailed itinerary. He will stay in Danzhou for a few days, where he will go every day, where he will live, What are the official protective measures? In short, the more detailed the better! Can Mr. Huo do it?"
Mr. Huo was also silent for a while before responding: "It's a bit difficult...but as long as the price is reasonable, it should be possible."
Xue Zhengdao: "Do you know who I'm talking about?"
Mr. Huo chuckled and said: "Your subordinate has already said it when he came here, isn't he the son of North Korea who set off from Sanya a few days ago to visit various places in the country? Although this news has not been made public locally, But the news channel below is from the official, otherwise how dare you take over your business."
"How much do you want?" Xue Zheng asked bluntly. Since his subordinates have already mentioned Li Min to the other party, there is no need to go around in circles anymore. The most important thing is to negotiate the price as soon as possible.
When Xue Zheng came, he had already thought that the other party would definitely open his mouth, but the cost of funds was not what he needed to consider.The financial backer provided a sufficient budget for this operation. As long as the matter can be done properly, the current asking price of Mr. Huo is not a problem.
"From the time of arrival at the port to the time he leaves Danzhou, the price is [-] yuan." Mr. Huo added: "Pay [-]% of the deposit first, and I will inform you of the time of arrival at the port in advance. Hong Kong Day will pay the rest. As for the local schedule, it will take some work, and it will probably not be finalized until he arrives here."
Xue Zhengdao: "How detailed is the itinerary you provided, and can it meet my previous requirements?"
Mr. Huo said: "Although the business I do is shady, it has always been innocent. Otherwise, there would be no such business as yours. Don't worry, Boss Xue, the information I provide will only be better than what you asked for. For details."
Xue Zhengdao: "Although that is the case, I have to pay you first. If the news is unreliable, wouldn't it be very insecure for me to spend the money?"
Mr. Huo said: "Then Boss Xue might as well think about it. I have to spend money to establish a relationship when I find a way to inquire about these news. Do I not only have to bear the corresponding risks, but also have to advance money to do this business? Of course I want the money." Receive it in your hand first, and then provide you with news."
