Chapter 38 Assassination
Linjiang Street was under the rule of Zeng Anmin.
At this time, the sun was shining. Although it was early winter, there were still countless trackers shouting slogans and trying their best to drag the big boat into the water.
Wangxian Tower is a restaurant specially prepared for traveling caravans, and the business is booming every day.
In a box in the building.
Zeng Anmin looked at Shen Jun in front of him with calm eyes.
"So, there are no signs of your uncle's disappearance at all?"
"Well, my uncle has led the fleet on the water for many years and has come into contact with too many forces. As for who he will offend, I really can't think of it."
When Shen Jun heard Zeng Anmin's words, he nodded solemnly.
After returning to the Xuanjing Division yesterday, Zeng Anmin checked many files but found no clues about Shen Liu.
So he came to the building today to ask Shen Jun.
"Where do you think your uncle is hiding?"
Zeng Anmin crossed his arms and looked into Shen Jun's eyes.
Jun Shen did not dare to neglect, he thought for a long time, then smiled bitterly and said:
"My uncle has been running around with the family business since he was ten years old. He has memorized almost all the terrain along the river. There are many nameless mountains along the river. If he wants to hide, he will find a nameless mountain everywhere, and even gods will be hard to find. Find.”
"Have you ever accompanied him on a caravan?"
Shen Jun was stunned for a moment, nodded and said: "Of course it happened."
"Is there any place that impressed you deeply? In other words, was there any place that your uncle was more nostalgic for?"
Zeng Anmin's voice was oppressive.
As soon as these words came out, Shen Jun's face became hesitant.
"What? Don't want to say?"
Zeng Anmin's face turned cold.
Jun Shen sighed, "There is an island very close to Liangjiang County. When my uncle led a team out of the river, they encountered water thieves. After a fight, the whole team was killed. Only my uncle escaped and drifted on the river for two days. Go up to that barren mountain..."
Having said this, he seemed to accept his fate and said:
"There are water sources, trees, and many wild animals on the barren mountains. If ordinary people were really in trouble there, they could survive. If my uncle just wanted to hide, I'm afraid he would end up there."
When Zeng Anmin heard this, he raised his eyebrows slightly:
"Who knows this place?"
"My uncle just said it to me by chance."
"You go back and clean up, and tomorrow you will take me to the barren mountain you mentioned."
Zeng Anmin slowly stood up and walked downstairs:
"If I can find your uncle, I will not worry about him killing his wife."
In feudal society, if a wife lives with an outsider and her husband reports to the government, the woman will also die.
What Shen Liu committed was nothing more than lynching, which could be either big or small.
"Yes!"
After hearing this, Jun Shen's face suddenly flashed with light.
…………
After getting downstairs, a smile appeared on Zeng Anmin's lips.
If this Shen family case is handled well, he might be able to help his father get a pretty capable subordinate.
The Shen family of Liangjiang County is the largest ship merchant leader in Fengqi Road.
One step closer to being in a state of luxury.
He has never been a young man after traveling through time, and he always has some obsessions in his heart.
Get on the horse and look towards the pier.
At this time, a large ship slowly approached the dock.
Zeng Anmin's eyes were deep, looking at the words "Jiang Wang" floating on the big ship, a smile flashed on his face.
Prince Jiang's ship.
Then you have to check it out!
"Make them stop and get checked!"
Zeng Anmin came to look at one of his men and pointed at the channel for the large ship that was about to dock.
Zuo Dianli of the Xuanjing Division had the authority to inspect the ship's supplies.
"Yes." Without any hesitation, the subordinate called a dozen men in red clothes and walked towards the dock.
When the boat docked, after a few greetings, a middle-aged man with a big belly walked out of the boat.
After negotiating with the men in red, the middle-aged man walked towards Zeng Anmin with a flattering smile on his face.
"Wang Fu, a grass-roots citizen, has met this gentleman."
After that, he took out a banknote from his sleeve without leaving any trace and handed it to Zeng Anmin.
Zeng Anmin raised his eyebrows.
Tsk.
The evil feudal society.
Zeng Anmin looked at him coldly: "Stop talking so much nonsense and accept the interrogation."
After saying that, he took the lead and boarded the big ship.
When we came to the deck, we saw a few boatmen coming out to deflate the boat, as well as a few guards.
After seeing the official clothes on their bodies, these people lowered their heads subconsciously and bowed their bodies.
"This..." The man who called himself Wang Fu had a grimace and followed Zeng Anmin with a smile.
"What's on this ship?"
Zeng Anmin walked towards the cabin and looked at Wang Fu's face.
"They are all daily necessities, including soap locust, cloth, hemp silk...these are all products from Prince Jiang's Mansion..."
Wang Fu didn't give away the money, thinking that the master thought it was too little, and he didn't want to give more, so he could only move his own backers to see if he could shock this kid.
Zeng Anmin sneered: "Prince Jiang's Mansion? I don't care whose product it is, I only care whether it is fishy or not!"
After saying that, he walked towards the rows of boxes, reached out and patted them:
"Open!"
"Yes." Two men in red clothes came up, pulled out the sabers from their waists, and gently pried open the gap in the lid of the box.
"Click~"
When the lid is opened, a scent hits your nostrils.
Check out the 16-9 book bar to see the correct version!
Smelling this familiar smell, Zeng Anmin looked towards the box.
Soap?
Yes, Zeng Anmin, who still wanted to make a fortune by making soap, gave up the idea.
People in this world are not stupid, and the government does not deliberately suppress businessmen.
Therefore, some weird and weird things develop better than the feudal society of the previous life.
wrong.
Zeng Anmin picked up a piece of soap, put it in front of his nose and smelled it. He smelled a different smell.
"Is this sulfur soap?"
Zeng Anmin raised his head and looked at Wang Fu.
Wang Fu was stunned for a moment, "Sulfur?"
"That's Yellow Fang."
Zeng Anmin explained.
Sulfur is called yellow tooth in this world, and its main function among the people is to use it as medicine.
"Your Excellency, you still know how to make saponins?!"
Wang Fu looked at Zeng Anmin in surprise.
"Just a little bit."
Zeng Anmin ordered people to open a few more boxes and found sulfur stone, which is a material for refining sulfur.
After a cursory glance, he looked to another place.
"This is a warehouse for cloth."
Wang Fu actively introduced Zeng Anmin.
After a brief glance, Zeng Anmin walked towards the outside of the ship.
He didn't find anything wrong, and the inspection of the ship was just an impromptu move.
"Sir, walk slowly..."
After Wang Fu sent Zeng Anmin away with a smile, he gently wiped the sweat from his head.
……
"Soap has been made, so is distilled wine also available?"
After Zeng Anmin got off the boat, his eyes were on the river.
"What about glass? Isn't there glass?" Zeng Anmin was a little depressed.
I just waved my hand and didn't say the word "close the team" yet.
Then suddenly I heard a "chirp!" sound.
"Poof!"
The man in red clothes closest to him had a dart between his throat.
Blood flowed.
"Killing!!!"
The surrounding crowd instantly erupted in a horrified voice.
Zeng Anmin frowned.
A figure covered in black... with a cat's head, holding a short knife, slowly approached him...
assassin!
At least an eighth-level assassin in the Breathing Realm.
The corners of Zeng Anmin's mouth twitched.
He looked at the black cat-faced hood on the assassin's head who was walking towards him...
Even the short knife in his hand is exactly the same as mine...
And the sharp edge coming from the sword seems to be a spiritual weapon...
You are the black cat warrior, then who am I? ?
However, he also knew.
What I am thinking about now is how to survive the current crisis without exposing my identity in front of everyone.
