377. Chapter 377(2/2)
After several carriages left the city, they went straight to the Guangdong Office. They got off the car through the back door and entered the courtyard. It was already dark at this time, and the people who usually came to the Guangdong Office for business had already returned to the city. Therefore,
Almost no one around noticed the existence of these carriages.
"I thought you couldn't leave the city in time before the city gate was closed... How is the matter going?" He Xi was notified and immediately came to the yard of the back room to meet these people.
"My subordinates are lucky to have lived up to their orders!" The leader stepped forward and bowed, "Guangsheng No. 1 is indeed Liu Xiang's dealer. My subordinates led a team to steal three thousand three hundred taels of silver and one hundred and fifty taels of gold from the store."
Twelve taels, and the roster that your Excellency mentioned."
The two people next to him immediately carried up the seized things. He Xi did not open the box to count the silver coins, but first took the thin book that was three inches wide and five inches long and looked through it.
A big pirate leader like Liu Xiang must have a large number of informants in the towns on land, as well as merchants who buy supplies for him and sell stolen goods. Although Guangzhou is not Liu Xiang's territory, as the largest and most prosperous city in Guangdong,
Of course, Liu Xiang also deployed his own manpower here. And the den that He Xi ordered people to remove was Liu Xiang's business den in Guangzhou city.
This business place was not discovered by He Xi recently, but was told by the pirates captured in the battle of Dangan Island a few months ago. However, there was no conflict between Haihan and Liu Xiang before that, and He Xi had no need to go there.
Deal with them. But this time Liu Xiang took the initiative to express his attitude by stepping on the door. There was no room for buffering between the two sides. Naturally, He Xi had to strike first and pull out the secret stakes Liu Xiang buried inside and outside Guangzhou. And the first to bear the brunt was
, it is the command organization of "Guangsheng Hao".
Before He Xi took action, he bribed a clerk in the store through roundabout ways. He knew that the store owner had a secret list that was specifically used to contact other businessmen and informants in nearby counties, so he did not hesitate to send someone to risk it.
He took the risk and went to the city to grab this roster. With this thing, He Xi could take advantage of the situation and play a roll call game near Guangzhou, calling Liu one by one according to the names and addresses clearly listed on the roster.
The incense is cleaned by hand.
"Well done, you will be credited with this matter." He Xi glanced at the roster and was almost certain of the outcome of the battle. He handed the roster back to the leader and said, "You
Take this to the confidential room and ask them to make a copy first as a backup."
