Hou Xun came out of Chen Hongfan's mansion and returned to Changchun Tower.

Wu Sanxuan came up and asked, "Mr. Yuwen, how is the progress?"

Hou Xun was confident, "No problem. Gao Huan was named Han minister, but actually Han thief. He monopolized the power and rejected loyal and kindness. There were many loyal and righteous people in Nanjing, and they would not all be with him. This official could easily convince one person with just his own tongue, and news would come soon."

When Wu Sanxuan heard the words, he couldn't help but sigh, "Adult is an adult, and he is helpless in his job. Lord Yuwen immediately made a waterway."

As they spoke, the two of them had already arrived in the room.

At this time, Hou Xun sat down, Wu Sanxuan poured him a cup of tea, then sat aside, took out a certificate of deposit from his chest, and respectfully handed it to Hou Xun, "Bei Zhi is a Jinyiwei Qianhu, responsible for Nanjing intelligence, but has no effect. This is the income from Bei Zhi's operation of Changchun Building, a total of 10,000 silver dollars, and is willing to give it to the adults for activities."

Wu Sanxuan pushed a certificate of deposit to Hou Xun.

Hou Xun slowly put down the teacup and looked at Wu Sanxuan in surprise, feeling a little shocked.

At this time, he picked up the certificate of deposit and opened it and found that it was really ten thousand silver dollars. "Is this the income of Changchun Building?"

Wu Sanxuan nodded, Hou Xun was shocked. Is Changchun Tower so profitable?

This made Hou Xun think about opening a restaurant in Nanjing.

Wu Sanxuan said: "The adults also saw that every day the guests are full. In order to avoid exposure, we cannot keep the guests out and can only be forced to operate. The officials of Liang State have a high salary, and it takes a lot of money to buy them. This is also a humble duty. After the work is completed, I hope the adults can speak well."

Hou Xun is indeed short of money now, so he was not polite and put the certificate of deposit into his arms and said seriously: "Wu Qianhu, if you successfully obtain the drawing this time, I will plan for you to make a contribution."

Compared with the Liang Kingdom, the Beiming Dynasty was indeed very poor now, with only one province in Shandong, plus the territory of the four prefectures on the north bank of the Yellow River, but it had to support more than 100,000 troops and had to pay Qing Dynasty annual monies. The salaries of officials were often owed.

This time when Hou Xun came to Jiangnan for an event, Hong Chengchou only allocated more than 20,000 taels of silver to him. It was indeed inconvenient and had no confidence in doing things.

Wu Sanxuan was overjoyed, "That's really thankful to Lord Yuwen!"

Hou Xun smiled and said, "It's all for the Ming Dynasty, it should be!"

Wu Sanxuan hurriedly said, "What else does sir? Even if you ask me, I will prepare wine and food for you first."

Hou Xun nodded slightly, "Well, send a pot of good wine!"

Wu Sanxuan then left the room. Soon after, someone brought wine and food. Hou Xun started drinking in a good mood.

The next day, Hou Xun first placed part of it on his account at the silver account, then took some silver dollars, and then stayed in the tavern.

Another day, Chen Hongfan sent someone to the restaurant to inform him that he had found several reliable people and could obtain the drawings of the flower bullets.

Hou Xun then went to Chen Hongfan's mansion to meet with Chen Hongfan, and invited the relevant Hongguang court officials to the mansion to have a party.

Officials in the Liang State in Nanjing did not have to worry about food and drink, but officials of the Hongguang court lived a relatively hard life.

Hou Xun knew very well that officials of the Liang State could not be easily won over, but officials of the Hongguang court were different.

Although these officials are in high positions, they have no rights, and without rights, they will have no money.

Their salary was paid according to the Ming Dynasty regulations, and life was very hard, and many people were almost unable to get out of their way.

This is also something Gao Huan intended to do, hoping that these people can recognize each other and hang their seals to return home early to avoid being obsessed with Nanjing.

Now someone treats to dinner, and there are still red envelopes to get when they come, which immediately attracts a group of people.

Hou Xun made a fortune and began to spread coins in Nanjing. Through Chen Hongfan, he won over and made friends with officials from the Hongguang court, and soon achieved results.

At this time, Wu Sanxuan suggested: "My Lord, those Hongguang court officials do not have power, but they have a certain influence. After they collect money, they still need to leave evidence. It is best to get an account book to record how much money the people participating in the banquet and everyone have collected. In this way, they can threaten them in the future and serve the court."

Hou Xun deeply agreed when he heard this, "Wu Qianhu is worthy of being the Jinyiwei, and his words make sense! Then I say you remember!"

Hou Xun made friends with Hongguang court officials in Nanjing, and in a blink of an eye, he spent thousands of silver balls. At this moment, Chen Hongfan sent a message saying that he had made an appointment with someone.

On that day, Hou Xun left Changchun Tower and headed for the Chen Mansion. As soon as he left, Wu Sanxuan ran to the Guoan Department to report.

That night, at Chen Hongfan's residence, Hou Xun couldn't help but ask someone, "Gei Master Fang, why haven't the person come yet?"

Fang Fengnian said in a deep voice: "There may be something delayed! That's my student, so there shouldn't be any mistakes!"

Now in Nanjing, the thoughts of the Hongguang court officials are actually very complicated. On the one hand, they know that Gao Huan is about to usurp the throne and wants to save the Ming Dynasty, but on the other hand, they don’t know how to act.

Hongguang was just Gao Huan's puppet and was deposed sooner or later. He was not the hope of the Ming Dynasty, but the Northern Ming court was also a puppet of the Qing Dynasty, and it was not as good as the Hongguang court, which made many people very confused.

Although Shi Kefa and others hated Gao Huan and wanted to continue the Ming Dynasty's destiny, they would not cooperate with Beiming. Only a few people such as Fang Fengnian decided to help Beiming for the sake of money and leave more way out for themselves.

Chen Hongfan comforted: "House Hou, please be impatient. I have checked. Mr. Fang is a student working in the worker. Recently, something happened at home and urgently needed some money. There should be no problem."

Hou Xun calmed down after hearing the words and continued to wait. After a few people drank another cup of tea, the door suddenly opened.

Fang Fengnian immediately said, "Yuanjie, you are late!"

The visitor gave Fang Fengnian a bow, and then asked without expression: "I have brought the things, where is the money?"

When Hou Xun heard this, he took out a certificate of deposit from his chest and placed it on the table, "This is three thousand silver dollars, a lot of money. What do I want? Let me see!"

The visitor took out a scroll from his arms, placed it on the table, and pushed it to Hou Xun, "This is the drawing of the flower bullet, it is a secret of the Worker Cao. You can see!"

Hou Xun quickly took the scroll and opened it. He looked carefully. There were various pictures on the paper, as well as words, as well as the seals of Liang Guogong Cao, the signatures and handprints of the painter.

Although Hou Xun didn't know the authenticity of the painting, it was still possible to tell that the seal of Liang Guogong Cao was real.

At this time, someone came urged: "Give me the money, you can copy it as soon as possible, and I will put the drawings back."

Hou Xun nodded when he heard this, handed over the certificate of deposit to the visitor, then took paper and pen and quickly copied one.

At this time, the person who came here took the certificate of deposit without hesitation, loaded the drawings, and got up and wanted to leave.

Hou Xun smiled and said, "Master Liu, please wait!"

"What else is there?" Master Liu asked with a frown.

Hou Xun smiled and said, "I hope to cooperate with Director Liu for a long time. If Liang Guo has any drawings of new firearms, please bring them to me again. The price is easy to say!"

When Master Liu heard the words, he nodded and then walked out.

At this time, outside Chen Hongfan's mansion, more than 100 people from Guoan Si had quietly surrounded the Chen Mansion under the leadership of Jiang Zhi'e.

At this time, Chief Liu hurried out and entered an alley. Jiang Zhie immediately asked, "What's the situation? Are everyone in it?"

"Report to the deputy envoy, Hou Xun, Chen Hongfan, Fang Fengnian and others are all inside!"

When Jiang Zhi'e heard the words, he nodded slightly and waved his hand. The Guoan Department's apostle immediately scattered around the Chen Mansion, and he led more than a dozen elite apostle straight to the gate.

The arrest of Hou Xun is actually no challenge for the National Security Department.

If Gao Huan hadn't intentionally taken the opportunity to deal with a group of Hongguang court officials, ascend the throne and clear the obstacles for him, the National Security Department would have taken Hou Xunsuo long ago.

At this time, in the Chen Mansion study, Hou Xun got the drawings and was in a happy mood. He said to everyone: "Liang Jun relied on firearms to sharply rely on firearms. Now that he got the drawings, the court can also build the same firearms. It won't take long for the court to use such powerful tools to restore Nanjing and get rid of the control of the Qing Dynasty. At that time, you will be the ministers of the Ming Dynasty's revival!"

In the study room, everyone agreed, but at this moment, the door was suddenly knocked open, and more than a dozen Guoan Sizi suddenly rushed into the study room.

Hou Xun and others looked sideways, their faces full of shock. They were frightened by the sudden rushing in Guoan Si Fanzi and stood there on the spot.

Chen Hongfan reacted and turned around and wanted to run away, but was pounced on the ground by several fans and suppressed him tightly.

At this time, Jiang Zhie glared and said loudly: "The National Security Department handles the case and is ordered to arrest spies. Who dares to move around and will be executed immediately!"
