Chapter 2989: False Suspicion of Private Dating in the Box
Meng Chang shook his head: "Master Qinglong, you probably never need to go to these boxes or darkrooms to conduct transactions in person. Do you know what these places are used for?"
Yu Yue said in surprise: "Aren't you doing the kind of private transactions, such as secretly controlled properties, illegally bought and sold land deeds, and also things like asking for bribes and giving bribes, and official and title transactions? They are all negotiated in these places to avoid being noticed by others.
, after all, there may be ears and eyes eavesdropping at home, but it is relatively safe outside. Of course, the head of the family generally does not do these things by himself, and usually leaves them to his trusted aides."
Meng Chang sighed: "In addition to these shameful transactions, there are two other things that cannot be separated from these places. One is intelligence, and the other is five-stone powder. These things that are not convenient to discuss at home will also be discussed here.
It is completed in the private rooms outside, because those who control these private rooms are not even the major families, but the sellers."
Yu Yue said thoughtfully: "Master Xuanwu is right. The head of our Yu family's intelligence has always been in charge. I didn't know this before he passed it on to me. The previous head of the family was Yu Kai. After his death,
Later, due to unclear handover, there was a break for several months. Later, his old housekeeper came to join me and told me many joint locations. This allowed me to truly grasp the resources of the Yu family. Those underground joints.
I've been to a few of them, and they were all rented out on a long-term basis using our Yu family's internal treasury income. The store only collects money and checks with passwords, not asking who owns it. Once something goes wrong, it will be abandoned. If a box lasts for three years
If no one renews the lease, it will automatically belong to the store owner. This is an unwritten rule in the capital."
Meng Chang nodded: "Yes, so many confidential matters that cannot be seen on the stage and cannot be seen in the light are carried out in these secret places, and those who master these secret transactions, except for the heads of each family, have been trained in this way for many years.
My loyal servant, Master Qinglong, you probably have a list of all the secret trading points that you know about."
Yu Yue's eyes narrowed slightly: "Of course, as the head of the family, you must master this roster. This is also the core secret of each family. Even my son will not tell it before I die. The roster of this kind of trading point,
The secret properties of each family, as well as the secret guards and dead soldiers, are the core secrets. As long as these things are there, even if they are confiscated and exiled, they still have a chance to make a comeback!"
Yu Yue said this and looked at Liu Yi, who had been silent all this time: "Master Baihu, have you been ready for these things after you have been in the city for a few years now?"
Liu Yi said coldly: "Before Jianyi, I was the former Lord Baihu, Wang Xun, a disciple of the great family for many years. I was responsible for most of the underground secret transactions in the capital. If you ask me this
Don’t you think this is a ridiculous question?”
Yu Yue laughed: "Oh, I almost forgot. Although you are not a son of aristocratic family, you have been the gangster brother of this capital for many years. I'm afraid you control many of those secret boxes."
Liu Yi shook his head: "We country people can't afford to rent so many luxurious boxes. We usually talk about things in the underground markets that you don't like, the peddlers' shop, or in the temple of the mountain god and earth in the suburbs. Of course, the kind of private fights,
You may have heard about the fighting and killing."
Yu Yue gritted his teeth: "So, you should have dealt with this Tiandao Alliance before?"
Liu Yi sighed: "In terms of collecting the monthly payment from those shops, I also went to smash some shops, protect some shops, and pick up escorts to escort the goods. I took on a lot of these businesses, and even pretended to be a robber to rob some manors.
I have done this task twice, but I have never done that kind of five-stone transaction. It is said to be the most profitable and the riskiest thing. I have wanted to know about the five-stone transaction in Jiankang City for many years.
Who made the stone powder, who sold it, and even bought it through the stewards of several companies. I wanted to follow him during the transaction, but without exception, I only saw five stone powder left in the empty house, and it was not with us.
The stewards who cooperated all disappeared or died within half a month without exception. This is obviously a warning given to us by some people."
“Before, I thought it was the heads of those aristocratic families who discovered that these stewards were cheating on them, but now I understand that I am afraid that the Tiandao Alliance is the one who did this.”
Xu Xianzhi said in a deep voice: "If they provide the Five Stone Powder in the capital, then the trouble will be big. Nine out of ten children from aristocratic families will take the powder. Even you, Lord Qinglong, seem to be taking it too."
Cold sweat began to break out on Yu Yue's forehead, and his voice was trembling: "I, it's been more than two months, ah, no, I smoked it once when I just came back ten days ago, but, this time, after only half a year in the army,
I, I really only took it once."
Xu Xianzhi sighed: "These are not important anymore. Master Qinglong, it seems that with the help of Liu Muzhi, you are gradually replacing the pleasure of the Five Stone Powder with other drugs. Only in this way can you stop smoking for a few months."
.”
Yu Yue's face turned slightly red: "This, you all know this. To be honest, if it wasn't for women, I wouldn't have to use this, but after I got used to it, I would feel all over my body if I didn't smoke it for three days.
I'm so sore that I can't even walk."
Xu Xianzhi nodded: "Yes, so if Master Qinglong cannot avoid being the head of the big family, the other children of the family must have him. Mastering these five stone powders means controlling the lifeblood of the family.
, if we really conduct a comprehensive search, then the people or organizations that do these five-stone transactions only need to stop providing them from now on, which is enough to make thousands of descendants of aristocratic families worse than dead. Master Qinglong,
You said, can we still search the whole city with great fanfare like you just said?"
Yu Yue gritted his teeth: "Then according to what you say, we have to sit back and wait for death. Let some secret organization provide Five Stone Powder to control us? What if they also put some Gu eggs, larvae, etc. in that powder?
Could something like that be able to conjure up that demonic insect in our brains and eat our brains in the future?"
At this point, he saw the pile of vomit in front of him and almost vomited again.
Meng Chang sighed: "So this kind of investigation can only be conducted secretly. So far, who provided these five stone powders is only our guess. Whether the Tiandao Alliance really exists, maybe it is just a one-sided statement by the black robe to get away.
And I always thought that the Five Stone Powder should be closely related to the Tao of the Heavenly Master. Back then, Sun Tai could directly donate many Five Stone Powder to King Sima Daozi of Kuaiji and the powerful minister Wang Guobao. Maybe, we can change our thinking and start from
It is more feasible to find the answer in Tianshi Dao!"
