"Brother, morning, is Sister Wei'er feeling better?" Early that morning, as soon as Wan Lei opened the door, Zhao Xueer's bright smiling face appeared in front of him.
"Keep your voice down, don't disturb her." Wan Lei lowered his voice. In fact, he spent the whole night lying next to the hospital bed last night. Every time his wife woke up, he was always the first to bring food and water. If not
His body is strong and strong, but an ordinary person would not be able to bear it.
"Brother, this is the record of the interrogation. You can read it." Zhao Xueer also lowered her voice and presented a stack of confessions.
"You can sort out these confessions yourself and keep them for later reference." Wan Lei didn't bother to read any more, because he had already appraised the case to a close, and he had no intention of interrogating the spies.
Confessions are useless except as memoranda.
"Brother, we have only caught Liu Wan's group now. Not all the Jin Yiwei's spies in the city have been arrested yet. Should we do another investigation?" Zhao Xueer said, taking out a confession and said: "This one is called Lan Yue.
This guy is a double-faced spy. It was Mrs. Liu and her group who got into Jin Yiwei's inside line. She confessed more than a dozen of Jin Yiwei's accomplices. Should we..."
"Just discuss these matters with Zhang Yan, but I would like to remind you, don't rely solely on oral confessions. You must have all the witnesses and material evidence before arresting someone. You cannot frame good people because of some people's collusive confessions," Wan Lei said.
"I understand that before arresting someone, you must first send someone to follow the other person and find out whether the other person is a human or a ghost before taking action."
"Go back and give me the list of people who have participated in this operation with merit, and I will reward you. By the way, you can select some of the more mature people who are interested in becoming agents, and let them participate in various trainings so that they can be sent out for execution in the future.
Various tasks.”
"What kind of training is needed? Those people are all elves and ghosts. You can use them just by looking for them." Zhao Xueer flatly said, she was most afraid of trouble.
"Training is necessary. It not only requires language, psychology, local customs, fighting, tracking and counter-tracking, establishment and management of intelligence networks, and many other subjects, but also long-term practical exercises. Only those who pass the final assessment can be hired.
We are agents. And our principle of employing people is to value the best rather than the many. A well-trained agent can support several or even a dozen novices."
"Okay, I understand. I will discuss it with Sister Zhang later and select people to train according to the requirements you mentioned. However, you have to make up the training tutorials yourself. I will only teach them to fight and run away."
"It's not just about picking newbies. Now we are eager to hire people. Let's pick a group of twenty people from the army first. You are responsible for selecting people, and I will ask your brother Zhao to assist you." The reason why Wan Lei picked people from the army was not only to eliminate
In addition to the military's doubts, he is also expanding his personal influence in the military, because from a certain perspective, the Jingzhong Guards are his personal private soldiers.
In addition, the Jingzhong Guard can be said to be the SS. Not only their military rank, but also their future prospects will be better than others. Naturally, those who join them must be the elite among the elite. In this way, in order to find a good future, the soldiers in the army must
They will play a big role in soldier assault, and then drive the entire Peking Army to improve their combat effectiveness. This is the way to the healthy development of the army.
"It's so troublesome." Zhao Xueer pouted again, but she still obeyed and went about her business, because Wan Lei told her clearly that she would probably become the chief instructor of the Jingzhong Guard, and even become the commander.
, this is not far from her long-held dream of commanding thousands of swords and horses.
Of course, Wan Lei was just saying that he would not leave such an important organization as the Jingzhong Guard to a yellow-haired girl like Zhao Xueer to mess around. Not only would he have to take care of the whole process, but he would also personally lead the training. Even if he really had the position of commander,
There are also two envoys on the left and right. The two commanders have their own responsibilities, check each other, and are directly responsible to him.
The weather in July was extremely hot, so Wan Lei rushed to the ironworks early to take a look and deal with some minor problems that had arisen in the past few days. Due to the unstable situation in the past few days, the stock and mining volume of iron ore were insufficient.
Therefore, factories often stopped production. In addition, business travelers were also affected by the flooding of the Yellow River, making it difficult to travel north and south. Many finished ironware was kept at the bottom of the warehouse and could not be exchanged for real gold and silver.
It is not just the smelting industry that is affected. Industries such as the textile industry and oil processing are also generally severely affected. A large number of products are unsaleable. It is not only the interests of businesses that are harmed, but small handicraftsmen are also hit hard. In order to calm the mood of the masses,
After Wan Lei came out of the ironworks, he visited some merchants and weavers to cheer them up and promised to solve the problem of unsalable products as soon as possible.
Just a small incident exposed many problems in the people's livelihood and economy of Shuntian Prefecture, and its vulnerability can be imagined. Although Wan Lei was a little discouraged, it was not his character to give up easily. After visiting the people, he took the road to
In prison, meet Liu Wan and others, and look for the possibility in them to break the current predicament.
The prison is located near the government office. Its predecessor was the Tianlao during the Yuan Dynasty. It is more suitable to be called a dungeon than a Tianlao, because it is a semi-underground prison as a high-level prison for heavy-duty prisoners, and the cells are all located in
It is underground, and the exit is equipped with numerous high walls and iron gates, and is guarded by dozens of jailers. It can be said that it is impregnable.
Ancient cells were not the "Harmony" of later generations, and there was no hygiene evaluation in the prison, so it was dirty and smelly inside. In this summer, there were piles of mosquitoes and flies flying around. When Wan Lei stepped into it, his forehead
It was Chengchuan. Although he had visited this cell before, it was cold at that time and the environment was not as bad as it is now.
There are very few prisoners in the prison, because most of the people who have committed crimes are taken directly to the city to work after a simple trial. They live in shacks, not dungeons. Liu Wan and others were detained in several relatively decent prisons.
In a clean single room, after a night of torture, they were all extremely decadent.
Wan Lei would not sympathize with these people who did evil things to his wives, and even wished to chop them alive. However, anger was anger, and he would not be carried away by anger. In order for Shuntian Mansion to get out of the current predicament, Wan Lei could not
If you don’t carry forward the spirit of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, bear with it!
When the cell leader saw Wan Lei coming, he had already ordered a clean room to be cleaned for him to receive prisoners. Wan Lei was not very picky about the environment, so he asked the cell leader to prepare some food and drinks, and then sat down
Sitting on a Taishi chair, he closed his eyes and breathed out his breath to calm down the anger in his body.
Soon, the food was brought, and Liu Wan, who was handcuffed and shackled, was brought in. At this time, she looked haggard, with a mess of hair covering half of her face. Fortunately, Wan Lei had taken special care of the prison head,
cannot
If you mistreat the prisoner too much, she would have been tortured long ago. After all, this is a dark dungeon, not a peaceful place. Women, especially beautiful women, can't even think about keeping their reputation in a place like this.
"Eat." Wan Lei pushed the food plate in front of Liu Wan.
"Bah, if the cat cries and the mouse pretends to be compassionate, it falls into your hands. My aunt has never thought about getting out alive. Kill or cut into pieces as you wish." Liu Wan glared at Wan Lei, her eyes full of resentment. Of course
There was also a strong reluctance. She couldn't figure out that the perfect plan she had laid out would be discovered by others, and her background would be revealed within two days.
"Don't worry, I won't be unjust to others who are unkind to me, and it's useless for me to take your life." Wan Lei glanced at Liu Wan expressionlessly, and then said: "In private, I
I won’t cut you alive; I’m just being fair, we need food in Shuntian Mansion, and if you have food, cooperation can lead to a win-win situation.”
"Bah, you still want to use us in exchange for food? My godmother will not let you succeed. You will never get a little bit of food!" Liu Wan's arrogance escalated again.
"Who said I would exchange you for food? How much is your life worth?" Wan Lei smiled instead of getting angry, and said: "You have to eat enough first, and then write a letter to your godmother and tell her
If she still wants artillery, just ship the grain. Since you breached the contract first, the price of this transaction will be doubled. One cannon costs two thousand shi of grain. No counter-offering is allowed. If the grain arrives within a month, we will pay for both goods and money.
clear."
"Huh, you still want to trick my godmother into falling into a trap. Do you think you are a fool?"
"It's up to you whether you write or not, and it's up to you whether you come or not. Anyway, our Shuntian Mansion can't survive without you." Wan Lei stood up, pushed the food in front of him again, and then walked out.
Liu Wan looked at Wan Lei's leaving figure, hesitated for a while, and then said: "Let the others go first, otherwise no one will deliver the letter."
The other people Liu Wan mentioned, in addition to Zhou Yu Lanyue and other accomplices, and that stupid junior brother, were two women and one man.
Wan Lei turned around and said: "There aren't many people to send, I will only send one."
"Okay, as long as you promise to let Xiaoyue go, I will write it." The reason why Liu Wan asked Wan Lei to let Lan Yue go is because Lan Yue was the main participant in the whole thing and directly caused personal harm to Fu Wei.
, is the person most likely to be retaliated against, and being able to rescue her now is a way to avoid the most important thing.
After listening to the request made by the other party, Wan Lei did not promise or object. He just said to the cell leader: "Put them into a few cleaner cells, give them some bedding tents, and provide them with three meals a day."
"Hey, I'm talking to you." Liu Wan asked after seeing that Wan Lei ignored her request.
"I have said that I will not counter-offer, and you don't have the capital to counter-offer. I will give you half a day to write the letter, and I will pick it up in the afternoon." Wan Lei dropped these words and left quickly.
"If you don't agree to let Xiaoyue go, I won't write it." Liu Wan's protest came from behind, but Wan Lei ignored it. Wan Lei will not let Lan Yue and Liu Wan go for the time being.
A mastermind would only let Zhou Yu go at most, because she was just a pawn, not directly involved in the kidnapping incident, and couldn't even be called an accomplice.
