The officer in charge of this operation is named Zhu Yun, who is a student of the police academy in the real world.
Zhu Yun is a player who only entered the game after the seventh test. After entering the game, in order to earn experience points, he had to start his own profession, catching people.
After Cui Tao arrived in Zhangye, he also carried out reforms in the police force.
The police officers who originally belonged to various yamen were all established as torture rooms, and a torture room was set up in every important city and town in Ganzhou.
All prison cells are subordinate to the Fa Cao of the governor's office. The police have the power to arrest prisoners and maintain public order, but the captured prisoners must be sent to the Fa Cao for trial.
At the same time, a large prison was set up under the Fa Cao to detain prisoners awaiting trial sent from various places.
Zhu Yun is the chief arrester of the Zhangye City Criminal Police Department and is responsible for the security work of the entire Zhangye City.
In this way, Zhu Yun, a police academy student who had not yet graduated, unexpectedly became the police chief of a prefecture-level city. As expected, he should not only consider his own struggle, but also consider the historical process.
Today, all the detectives from Zhangye City’s torture room were dispatched together, targeting the oil press mill in the corner of Zhangye City.
"Act!" Zhu Yun made a gesture, and the police officers who surrounded the oil press rushed up and rushed into the oil press.
The waiters in the oil mill were completely unprepared. They were immediately knocked down by the police and escorted to the ground.
Zhu Yun took the lead and rushed directly to the place where the account books were stored.
The two native accountants were arrested and subdued by the police, and Zhu Yun immediately sealed all the account books and ordered the police to take them back to the execution room.
Lamp oil is waiting in this oil-pressing shop, and several oil-pressing machines are squeezing golden oil.
But the raw material for oil extraction was some black seeds. Zhu Yun picked up the seeds and pinched them. Sure enough, these were cotton seeds.
This is a black-hearted workshop that purchases cotton seeds and extracts oil.
Nowadays, the expansion of cotton cloth trade has led to many more farmers growing cotton in Longyou.
Areas such as Guazhou and Shazhou have sufficient sunshine and are best able to produce high-quality cotton.
The large amount of cotton output has also led to an increase in cotton seeds.
With the changes in dietary patterns brought about by players, oil has gradually become a daily necessity for people.
Whether it is frying or stir-frying, oil is required. After eating fried food or delicious stir-fry, steamed food will not be so easy to eat.
However, there are not many oil-bearing plants in Longyou, and it has always been short of oil.
Zhu Yun noticed that there were a lot of low-priced oils on the market in Zhangye.
Where do these oils come from?
Zhu Yun followed the clues through businessmen and found that someone was buying cotton seeds in Guazhou and Shazhou.
Cotton seeds can actually extract oil? Zhu Yun originally just reported this matter to Cui Tao.
But Cui Tao was shocked when he learned about this.
Cotton seeds can be squeezed for oil, and it can even be said that cotton seeds are a raw material with a high oil yield.
But why do we not use cottonseed oil in later generations, but support rapeseed oil, soybean oil, peanut oil and corn oil.
This is because the oil extracted from cotton seeds is toxic.
Consuming cottonseed oil may cause infertility and fetal malformations.
Excessive consumption can even cause damage to the liver and nervous system.
Therefore, the production of cottonseed oil has always been strictly prohibited. Only refined cottonseed oil that has been carefully processed by modern technology to remove all toxic ingredients can be used for consumption, and the daily consumption must be strictly controlled.
With the current technology in the Tang Dynasty, there is no technology that can remove the toxic components in cottonseed oil.
Cui Tao soon realized that once this cottonseed oil entered the market, it would cause huge losses to the people of Zhangye.
That's why Zhu Yun's raid was launched!
What worries Cui Tao even more is that there may be players behind this workshop!
Otherwise, how could the natives of the Tang Dynasty think of using cotton seeds to extract oil?
The sealed account books were sent to the torture room, and Cui Tao assigned a player from the household department to help Zhu Yun check the accounts.
From the complicated ledgers, Huke's players discovered clues.
All proceeds from the oil pressing workshop will be regularly deposited into an account at Wangfu Bank.
"Let's go! Go to Wangfu Bank!"
Zhu Yun immediately took the evidence and went to Wangfu Bank.
Faced with the evidence, Wangfu Bank also quickly disclosed the account owner's information, and it turned out to be a player!
Xia Dongqiang, a nine-test player, joined the Public Examination House Union since he entered the game. He couldn't bear to go to work on time every day, so he left the government after being promoted to level 2 official.
Then Xia Dongqiang collected some money and continued to engage in trade from Shazhou to Hexi.
It's him!
Zhu Yun quickly brought the evidence to the Governor's Mansion and presented all the evidence to Cui Tao.
"Does Xia Dongqiang know that cottonseed oil is poisonous?" Cui Tao asked an important question.
Zhu Yun immediately said: "This workshop only operates at night every day. It was because of complaints about disturbing people at night that we targeted it."
"If Xia Dongqiang knew that cottonseed oil was harmless, he would definitely not produce it so secretly."
"In addition, those responsible for transporting cotton seeds are also Xia Dongqiang's cronies. They paid taxes in the name of seeds and entered the city. They were obviously evading search."
"Xia Dongqiang also sells cottonseed oil secretly. He secretly goes to the owners of restaurants and grain and oil shops. Some grain and oil shops will also blend cottonseed oil for sale."
Cui Tao nodded and said: "In this case, let's sort out the evidence and I will report it to King Jianning!"
When Li Yan got up in the morning, he saw the report sent by Cui Tao.
"System, check the game records of player Xia Dongqiang."
The game records collected by the system are the same as Cui Tao's inference.
Xia Dongqiang, a player, originally only engaged in trade. While doing trade, he discovered a "business opportunity."
Oil prices in Longyou area have dropped a bit, but prices in Zhangye City are still very high.
Originally, Xia Dongqiang was just reselling oil from Shazhou to Zhangye, but soon he discovered another business opportunity.
Cotton seeds!
Nowadays, many people in Shazhou, Guazhou and Xizhou are planting cotton, and there are many cotton seeds left and the price is very cheap.
After consulting technical information, Xia Dongqiang discovered that cotton seeds are also a very high raw material for oil extraction.
Cotton seeds are cheap, and the only drawback is that they are poisonous.
Xia Dongqiang quickly seized this "business opportunity" and began to purchase cotton seeds in the three prefectures of Longyou, and then sent them to Zhangye to extract oil and sell them.
After checking the game records, Li Yan quickly determined the player's crime.
Li Yan is also deeply afraid of this kind of players.
Nowadays, the number of players is large, and the good and bad are naturally mixed. Although the harm of manufacturing cottonseed oil is still controllable, this behavior has given Li Yan a wake-up call.
Players are the help in your hands. If you don't control the players well, they will backfire on you.
Naturally, Li Yan has no mercy for players like Xia Dongqiang.
[Server-wide announcement, player Xia Dongqiang is permanently banned from logging into the game because he violated the player agreement. 】
[Players please read the Player Agreement and purify the game, everyone is responsible.]
After quickly kicking Xia Dongqiang out of the game, Li Yan saw the report sent by Cui Tao again.
What to do with the cottonseed oil in stock?
Cui Tao also proposed two methods.
One is to sell it as lamp oil, but poor people may use it as cooking oil.
The second method was much more destructive. Cui Tao suggested transporting the cottonseed oil to the Uighurs for sale and retaining the workshop for pressing the cottonseed oil.
Li Yan was also lost in thought and did not directly reply to Cui Tao's suggestion.
After inspecting the grassland trading station, Shang Bo also received a new task from Li Yan.
He went south to Fengxiang Mansion to succeed Li Daoyuan and became the envoy of the Longyou Governor's Mansion in the backyard.
Shang Bo looked at the beautiful grassland and wondered when he would be able to return to the grassland again.
Zhang Leyan followed Shang Bo, and his Beilin trading station has become quite large, and the business is quite booming.
By supporting compradors, the business of Beilin Trading Station is becoming more and more prosperous.
Zhang Leyan's daily work is to sell goods to these compradors and then purchase goods from these compradors to complete his work.
The only thing Zhang Leyan has to do is to check the account books every day and then give the rebates to these compradors.
"Lao Zhang, I received a mission today and am going to Fengxiang Mansion."
"Fengxiang Mansion? I heard that the Eastbound Group opened a new map there and asked the president to go over and help?"
Shang Bo is the president of the Public Examination House, and Zhang Leyan also calls him the president.
After the video of Li Daoyuan's performance in the palace was released, it once again triggered a wave of eastward march.
Many merchant players have already purchased goods and are preparing to open up the Datang market eastward.
Some people even shouted slogans to open up the trade route to Fengxiang Mansion.
These merchant players are clamoring to enter the Central Plains, and the generals and players are also gearing up.
I heard that the General Staff Office also came up with a plan to advance eastward, shouting that "there must be a war in the Central Plains."
But for the officials and players, the bustling eastward movement seems to have nothing to do with them.
Shang Bo said: "Your Highness asked me to take over Li Daoyuan's position and serve as the envoy to the Longyou Governor's Mansion."
Shang Bo looked at Zhang Leyan and said, "Old Zhang, are you willing to go to Fengxiang Mansion with me?"
Going to Fengxiang Mansion?
Zhang Leyan seemed a little reluctant to see his experience points rising rapidly every day at the trading station.
But it seems that being in Beilin City is also boring. Isn’t playing games just for excitement!?
Zhang Leyan raised his head and said: "President, I am willing to go!"
Shang Bo nodded, and King Jianning gave him twenty places. These will be the people who will stay in the backyard of the Longyou Governor's Mansion in the future.
Shangbo knows very well that Zhongyuan must be the most important copy.
According to the historical process of the original world, the two capitals would be recovered in the second year of Zhide, but the entire Anshi Rebellion would take several years to be quelled.
Obviously the Central Plains script is still moving forward, so King Jianning will definitely prepare for the Central Plains in advance.
The Governor's Mansion of Longyou remained in the backyard, and for a long time it was Longyou's tentacles that penetrated into the Central Plains. This task was of vital importance, and Shangbo naturally had to carefully consider its manpower.
He also sent invitations to several friends in the game.
