Su Chen's reaction was very good. Both the general and the fat manager believed that there would be a good ending today.

"Mr. Su is very saying that this box is really too small. Go and change it to Master Su."

When the two soldiers heard this, they immediately carried the boxes and retreated. At this moment, the general added, "You have to get two boxes." The two soldiers nodded and responded, yes.

Su Chen also cooperated to laugh and raised his glass to the general.

The chat and laughter continued for a while. Four soldiers came outside the hall, carrying two large boxes half a person tall, and put them next to Su Chen's table. When they landed on the ground, there was a slight vibration on the ground. Su Chen stood up, opened the box again in a pretentious manner, and found that it was two large boxes of gold. He laughed softly, closed the box and sat back on the seat.

"I like these two boxes very much. General, I will respect you again."

The general responded happily, and thought to himself that he was just a newly appointed general manager, young and easy to deal with, and was not as difficult as the director of the Ministry of Revenue.

At this moment, Su Chen put down his wine glass and looked at the beauty beside the general with lustful eyes.

"The wine is paired with beauty, the general is so happy like a god."

Su Chen looked at the charming woman beside the general without any hesitation, then lowered his head to stare at the wine in his hand, and couldn't help but exclaim.

The general narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Su Chen carefully, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. Unexpectedly, he was young and had a big appetite, and he was not as easy to deal with as the head of the Ministry of Revenue. So he laughed and said, "As long as Lord Su likes, he can take it away."

He winked at the beauty who was pouring wine beside him and asked her to go down to serve Su Chen. Then he explained to the guards beside him, and the guards went to the back of the palace, as if to get something.

Soon, the charming woman came to Su Chen's side. She was about to pounce on Su Chen's arms. Su Chen stopped her and asked her to pour wine and serve the meal. Then the guard also brought two pots of fine wine from Qianjin to Su Chen and placed it on the coffee table.

Gold and fine wine were all intentional by Su Chen. He wanted the general to know that his appetite was very big and not so easy to win over. But this charming woman was favored by Xinyun. She suspected that the woman was from Lingguo, but she needed to observe it closely to confirm, so she pretended to be lewd and hinted.

The general thought that gold, silver, fine wine, and beautiful women all satisfied Su Chen. It was his turn to express his opinion this time. In fact, in addition to these three things, he also deployed a large number of elite soldiers outside the hall. The courtesy was not feasible, and there were soldiers as a guarantee. Anyway, today, Su Chen would have to go to their pirate ship if he didn't go!

Su Chen felt that Shi was doing it almost the same, so he passed the process. So he asked, "I wonder if the general is interested. In a quiet environment, let's talk about our plan for Lincheng?"

The general understood instantly and waved his hand to let all the idle people retreat. Only Su Chen, the general, the head of the Ministry of Revenue, and Xinyun were left in the hall. Even the charming woman who poured wine for Su Chen retreated. Xinyun had already concluded that the woman was from Lingguo, but she seemed to be just an ordinary woman, not a deep-minded spy.

The general glanced at Xinyun, first astonished by her appearance, then looked at Su Chen, as if asking about Xinyun's identity.

"Don't worry, General, this is my confidant, we can speak freely."

After obtaining Su Chen's guarantee, the general nodded with confidence, but his eyes glanced at Xinyun from time to time, and he was very moved.

Su Chen said straight to the point: "As far as I know, restaurants, shops and teahouses in the city have profits with the general. I don't know how much of these profits are, and what are I don't know."

As soon as he said this, the general's expression immediately became serious. Su Chen's appetite was really extraordinary. He dared to ask directly about the profit. Could it be that he still wanted to share the profit!

"Mr. Su, your appetite is too big. We are all working for the general, so the general will naturally not treat you and me badly."

The fat manager finally stopped being attentive and said coldly.

"Okay, I can't ask about the profits, but you always have to tell me who are on this boat. If I accidentally get hurt one day, it would be embarrassing."

When asked about profits that were just the fuses that Su Chen threw out, what he wanted to know most was whether the general had accomplices and whether there would be Ling Feng's shadow.

The general looked at each other with the head of the Ministry of Revenue, and then the head of the head of the Ministry of Revenue said, "Except for the head of the city, the other five officials are all our people."

Su Chen was shocked. It was indeed a big ship! He originally thought that corruption here became a trend, but he didn't expect that it would fall all of them. Fortunately, the most important lord in Lin City was still holding on. However, in this quagmire, it was really rare to be able to get out of the mud without being stained. But Su Chen thought again that the city lord was obsessed with music, which might be different from theirs. If they don't plan for each other, they can't be spotless.

"Who are there other civil forces besides officials?"

The head of the Ministry of Revenue said seriously: "Mr. Su, officials still have a relationship with your Ministry of Personnel. As for the civil forces, do you care a lot? You only need to get on this boat, and you don't need to take the helm."

"Is that right? I happened to catch a servant yesterday. He should not be an official, but he has a lot of news. Do you think I'll take care of it or not?"

"You..." The fat man choked.

Seeing this, the general smiled and smoothed out, "Don't worry about internal conflicts. Since you are your own people, it's okay to know some of them. I'm not to hide it from Lord Su. The few beauties just now were given to me by the Hailong Gang. If you want to say that the private forces, the Hailong Gang is our greatest help. They operate some cross-border trade and have very rich profits, so when you meet them in the future, you can be more comfortable."

Smuggling was said to be transnational trade, and shelter was said to be compatible. Su Chen lamented that the general also made some achievements in language, no wonder he could be a local emperor here for so long.

The Hailong Gang traded with the Lingguo people. Judging from the situation last night, it should be that the Lingguo country was transporting goods to them at an extremely low price. They then took the goods to the Frost Country for sale and made huge profits. Let the Hailong Gang get the benefits for no reason. What are the Lingguo people trying to do? In particular, they also contributed the Lingguo beauty to establish relationships with the Hailong Gang. Is it just for business?

Based on the information provided by the General and the General Manager of the Ministry of Revenue, Su Chen concluded that these two people were just for profit and enjoying wealth here, and they seemed to have no intention of rebellion. Moreover, with such a big ship in Lincheng's officialdom, they would not be at the end of their way and insisted on going to the death. From this, it can be seen that the mobilization of new recruits was not their plan, and there must be a black hand among them!

"Since the general is so honest, I won't hide it anymore. I actually always want to join you. But there is something that has worried me recently. I wonder if the general can solve the problem?"

“Speak quickly.”

"I recently looked through the household registration files of the city guards and found that half of the soldiers in Lincheng were recruits. This is not a good sign. If there is a turmoil, can our safety be guaranteed?"

When the generals and the other generals heard this, they frowned slightly, with a serious expression, obviously not knowing it.

"This is actually happening! Why don't I know."

The general was confused at first, then looked at the fat general manager and said coldly: "There are so many new recruits, how did you get through it?"

When every new recruit joins the army, the household registration must be reviewed by the Ministry of Revenue. If there are too many people or the household registration is not detailed, they cannot pass the review. If so many new recruits pass the review, it must be a problem with the general manager of the Ministry of Revenue.

The fat manager also looked confused and looked at the general and said, "Didn't you ask Captain Wang to give instructions? I will pass all the official letters brought by Captain Wang. I think this is what you mean."

Captain Wang! Su Chen remembered that when he visited the fat chief that day, the other party mentioned this person.

When the general heard Captain Wang, his frown slightly relaxed and shouted to the outside of the hall: "Come on, go and invite Captain Wang."

After a while, a heroic general outside the hall came, wearing silver soft armor and a dark red cloak on his shoulders. He walked with a majestic look. After he reached the center of the hall, he did not bow to the general's half-kneeling salute, but just bowed and clasped his fists and said, "General, what's the matter?"

At this time, Su Chen immediately became alert. Captain Wang in front of him looked like a martial artist, but there was no trace of storm on his face, and his words and deeds showed an indescribable aura, reminding him of the feeling of seeing Xiao He for the first time.

Is he a cultivator?
