"So, the mayor is really a fool?" Ladislaus refused the daughter of a pleaser who wanted the mayor's position in order to avoid being accidentally rewarded, so he could only continue to check the ledger of loot and hope for the best.

News.

Fortunately, although Captain Hohenzollern did not collect much supplies, Boss Sirica did not disappoint him.

"The mayor is a fool, but his wife is very wise." Boss Sirica did not let complacency and arrogance take over. He still reported to his master respectfully.

The iron was not inserted into that delicate spot in the end, of course not because of the mayor's wails, but because his wife finally had an idea under such pressure and provided useful information. The mayor's wife pointed out the more details of the rebels.

Possible numbers and other useful information.

"The mayor's wife's father and brother are grain merchants. They have been providing food to the rebels for the past month. Her father once predicted that the rebels should have between 5,000 and 5,500 people." Sirica's words made his monarch quite happy.

satisfy.

"Is it reliable? Could it be that this lady provided random information out of desperation?" In order to temporarily escape the harsh torture, it is also very common for the tortured person to talk nonsense in desperation.

"She had kept this secret to protect her father and brother, and she had provided other information. The rebels had occupied the Archbishop's palace outside Salzburg because peasant leaders and mine owners had begun to fight over the division of the spoils.

There has been a conflict, and they are currently on guard against each other. I have sent my subordinates to observe the enemy's camp and the Archbishop's Palace to verify her confession." Sili.

Boss Ka lowered his head even lower when he said this and then continued, "Madam said she once wanted to send an envoy to Vienna. It was only because of her husband's organization that she could not even remind you of the situation here. She hopes you can let her go.

and her children. For this reason, she and her daughter can serve you wholeheartedly and help you contact her father and brother to create conditions for our raid on Salzburg."

The last time Boss Sirica gave away a woman, the effect was very poor. The follower of Birzeb was off-putting, so this time he found the mother and daughter. This should not cause any harm to the mother and daughter.

"Indeed, the palace of the Archbishop of Salzburg is actually a small castle. Archbishops in the past have accumulated a lot of wealth." Ladislaus did not immediately respond to the mayor's wife's request.

Boss Sirica didn't ask, he knew it was his master who was considering it.

"It's a pity, it's a pity that I can't invite two ladies to my bedroom after I just tortured my husband and father so cruelly." After thinking briefly, Ladislaus rejected the mayor's wife's proposal, although he really

I feel a little sorry for this unfortunate lady.

He also felt a little regretful. Although he had never met her, since Boss Sirica brought this proposal to him, it showed that this lady and her daughter must be quite beautiful. However, her efforts and her beauty could not save her.

and her daughter's fate.

"No matter how you forced her to confess, if you continue, I believe she will confess her father and brother." Ladislaus thought wrong. In fact, when the lady was begging for life, the mayor took his own life.

The positions of my father-in-law and uncle were revealed.

Boss Sirica did not report it just to provide his master with a chance to be happy.

This mother and daughter are quite good, since Ladislaus refused. Sirica's freedom has its uses.

Don’t get me wrong, although Sirica Boss has not quit sex, he is quite restrained on this issue. The two women who have been with him for more than ten years have not been challenged by any young and beautiful newcomers.

He decided to give them to Kessell-Vitting.

In the operation to dismantle the smuggling network, he received great help from Kessell Vitting. After all, the force of the Secrecy Bureau is in the hands of Director Jones. Without the help of old connections, Boss Sirica could defeat this criminal gang that even has a mid-level mage.

There is no way.

Although Kessell-Vitting has already obtained a batch of trophies, including a large number of weapons and horses, due to the huge smuggling profits, the equipment of these smugglers is not inferior to or even better than that of the regular army.

Although he couldn't keep it for himself, after turning it over, Ladislaus was quite satisfied with Kessell Witting.

This mother and daughter are a complement, a symbol of friendship that Sirica boss is willing to pay for.

Women on the construction site are not of much use anyway. They will become human in just a few days after being toiled by those slaves.

Although the mayor's wife and her daughter were somewhat saved, the father and son who were doing food business with the rebels were in dire straits.

Although they carefully set up the secret dock and warehouse in a hidden branch of the Salz River, they were unable to keep it from their daughter and son-in-law. After all, this smuggling route would be meaningless without the help of the mayor's son-in-law.

.

In addition to grain, there is also rock salt in the warehouse. It is not difficult to deduce that this place must have been a private salt smuggling point in the past. Although the rock salt is extremely profitable, there are too many links that cannot withstand the profit sharing. Naturally, it can save taxes paid to the Austrian treasury.

It couldn't be better.

The mayor's wife's father and brother are indeed in the grain business, but that is just a side business. In fact, they are also smugglers.

Boss Sirica didn't waste much effort to pry open the mouths of these two colleagues.

So the next morning Ladislaus could see another report that pleased him.

After the Great Uprising broke out, the surrounding rebels needed rock salt and grain more than Austria, and they exchanged various looted goods for these products that they depended on for survival.

The salt lord who took control of Salzburg's stock of rock salt has made a fortune recently, but unfortunately the good times were short-lived.

For Austria, this was a small fortune. The Austrian treasury received fifty thousand thalers in cash and an equal amount of various gold and silver ornaments and jewelry.

Although the executioners are the subordinates of Sirica Boss and Kessell Witting, Ladislaus believes that it would be great if they can hand over half of it.

He had no intention of knowing how much wealth his two cronies had made, and he had already obtained his share.

"The salt lords on the Salz River are interesting. The leader should be executed, and the accomplices should be handed over to Jevich. Private salt traders are very brave." Ladislaus needs these people, but he has not forgotten their danger. "But

Tell Yevich that no matter how well these criminals perform in future service, they can only receive monetary rewards and cannot be promoted to officers, and the officers of the Austrian River Fleet must be of clean origin."

"The salt lord father and son provided quite a lot of details about the rebels. I think we can disguise ourselves as salt traders and deliver food to the rebels besieging Salzburg." Boss Sirica's raid plan still has a small problem.

"It's just that we need the help of the leader and his son. With their help, we will be much more confident."

"Then we don't need to execute them, and we can return their property of ten thousand talers." Ladislaus actually had little confidence in this. The resentment caused by taking away more than 90% of a person's property may be temporary.

Will be offset by sparing life, but in the long run this is the worst subordinate.

"No, no, Your Highness, I don't need you to spend money, I can give them a chance." Boss Sirika planned to give him 10,000 from the 30,000 talers he received as a start of goodwill. "Established in a foreign country

Smuggling networks are also part of the intelligence service and their experience will be useful."
