Min Zhanlian saw that he was in a trance and knew that he already had the intention to survive. He said deliberately: "I think you are just being sent by others to make a few coins, why are you so loyal? Do you think you have a very precise calculation?
?I’m afraid the master already knew about it.”
This sentence was originally meant by Min Zhanlian to impersonate him. Zhou Ruolan had said before, "I'm afraid they are not of the same mind." In addition, the visitor who was killed yesterday...all this shows that Liu Zhen is not only disloyal, but also has his own agenda.
Unexpectedly, Liu Zheng's cheek suddenly twitched at this sentence. Min Zhanlian became more confident, he leaned over and whispered:
"You killed the person who came here, this is a bad idea! Even if the master can't fall out with you for a while, but the matter is over, we can't inquire about it. What will you say then? I know you will definitely destroy the body.
The method of tracking is just that once the trust is gone, I’m afraid it will never be there again…”
Although Liu Wei tried his best to keep his face calm, Min Zhanlian, an old man in the world, could already see the fear. His opponent! He thought that Liu Wei's murder was simply a stress reaction as the instructor said, without careful consideration. This kind of response
The excitement was probably caused by the panic after the conspiracy was exposed.
One hundred thousand taels of silver can indeed make people fight to the death!
"Are you really a thieves?" After a long time, Liu Zheng finally spoke.
Min Zhanlian reached out from his arms and took out a revolver with bright blue light.
"Seven-Star Continuous Gun - You must know this."
Liu Zheng was speechless and said feebly, "It doesn't matter, I wasted all my effort!" After saying that, his whole body collapsed as if he had lost all strength. After a long time, he opened his eyes and said, "To tell you the truth, Shopkeeper Leng's
I really don’t know his whereabouts—it’s not me who hid the tickets.”
"What did you do?"
"Redemption." Liu Zheng said feebly.
"Is this what you mean by the hundred thousand taels?"
"Yes, the master wants it, not the money." Liu Wei said with great difficulty.
"What is it?!"
"Negotiate peace!" Liu Wei shook his head.
Min Zhanlian took a breath, this matter was getting more and more complicated. Liu Zheng's plan was whimsical. According to him, the condition proposed by his family for his release was not a ransom, but an interview with the leader of the Kun thieves.
"Who is your master?"
"Now that the matter has come to this, there is no harm in telling you: Lord Wang Yehao, Minister of the Ministry of War."
Min Zhanlian knew a thing or two about the gentlemen in the capital, but he had no impression of Mr. Wang. Since he resigned from his post as governor of Guangdong and Guangxi and governor of Guangdong, he has not been a key concern of the Foreign Intelligence Agency.
"Is the letter originally sent to Delong still there?"
"Has been destroyed by me."
"Do you still remember the content of the letter?"
"I probably remember. The letter said that kidnapping Shopkeeper Leng was a last resort. It was a last resort when life was in danger. It was just to invite one or more of the big bosses of the Kun Thief Senate to meet and negotiate in a safe place for both parties.
"
"that's it?"
"There are also some polite words, which are nothing more than saying that both sides suffer in war, and if it is a peace negotiation, it will be beneficial to both sides."
No wonder the Lord is so calm! Min Zhanlian thought to himself, for such a big matter, even if the Senate had a wireless telegraph, it could be transmitted thousands of miles in a moment. To negotiate such a matter with the court, the Senate would have to hold meetings and discuss it for many days before it could be achieved.
As a result, Liu Zheng took advantage of this loophole.
It turned out that according to the plan, after kidnapping Leng Ningyun, Liu Hao arranged for Leng Ningyun's token and a letter to be sent to Delong Bank. At this time, Liu Hao did something and took away the original letter and replaced it with ten.
A ransom letter of ten thousand taels of silver.
He then sat in Tongzhou and secretly controlled his subordinates to monitor Delong and Liansheng.
Choosing Tongzhou, firstly, he has traveled here in the name of a fortune teller, and is somewhat famous, and can be regarded as half a native; secondly, this place is not far from the capital, and can be controlled remotely; thirdly, the capital must have been overturned by He Liansheng
It's better to hide for a while and prevent others from discovering the flaw.
No wonder Delong hung up the banner with the agreed terms but there was no response. Min Zhanlian thought to himself, everyone really has their own agenda.
"Since Delong has promised to give money, why not hand over the money?"
"Because I'm not here." Liu Zheng said with a bitter smile, "There are other people taking care of it. NND!"
It seems that the arrangement of separating the redeemers and the guards was beyond Liu Xing's expectation.
"How did you come up with this idea? Besides, even Delong doesn't necessarily have a hundred thousand taels of silver in the bank."
"This is little Eunuch Yang's idea."
He learned from Young Eunuch Yang that Delong had just deposited nearly one hundred thousand taels of silver from more than a dozen eunuchs in the palace. He must have this amount of money. So he started to think about cutting off Hu.
"So, little Eunuch Yang is also a part of it."
Liu Zheng nodded feebly: "Exactly."
The silver stored in Delong is as stable as a mountain. Not to mention that one hundred thousand taels of silver weighs six or seven thousand kilograms, and dozens of carts are needed to transport it. Just wielding swords and guns in the city is asking for death.
Therefore, the money must go out of the city and reach the countryside before it can be used.
"In this case, why was Qihe Liansheng's silver car intercepted halfway?"
"That's to test whether Qiwei can really transport money to Zhuangzi."
"What if they really robbed me?"
"Those bandits are no match for He Liansheng." Liu Zheng said, "I know He Liansheng's strength very well."
"What's the deal with Liu Xiaobian in Bandits and the eunuch in Nanyuan?"
"I was sent to monitor the gangsters. I never wanted to risk my life!"
"Didn't the master's family become suspicious after the letter was sent out?" he said slowly.
"Suspicion naturally arose. Otherwise, I wouldn't have sent someone here." Liu Zheng said with a wry smile, "Fortunately, I handled this matter from beginning to end, except for hiding the tickets, and all the outside eyes and ears were involved.
My men can certainly fool you."
He also did not conceal that the man who was killed was named Wang Mingliang and was sent by his master to inquire about the redemption of the note.
"...Originally I wanted to fool him, but I didn't expect that this person got some information from somewhere. He made a lot of noise in my place, threatened to report me, and refused to even accept the money. I had no choice but to send him on his way." In his eyes.
With a look of unwillingness, he said, "Give me three more days and it will be done! What a pity, what a pity..."
"This is strange. Even if you reach the outside of the city, can you still mobilize the troops to besiege? Even if you can mobilize and capture Zhuangzi, the wealth and silk will attract people's hearts, and can you control the situation?"
"Of course you can't attack by force," Liu Zheng said with a wry smile, "take it out of hand."
"Outwit?" Min Zhanlian couldn't help laughing, "How to outwit?"
"I don't know about this. The specific arrangements will be made by Little Eunuch Yang."
Min Zhanlian smiled and said: "You are also a Jianghu man. Although I don't know Zhuangzi who saves money, with He Liansheng's handling, I'm afraid it's like an iron barrel. Even if hundreds of bandits besiege him, he may not be able to win.
A eunuch who grew up in a deep palace could easily say 'outwit', and you would believe him?"
"So what if you don't believe it." Liu Zheng said helplessly.
Min Zhanlian stared at his face, which was indeed full of helplessness, but he always felt that Liu Zhen was not telling the truth.
He thought, it doesn't matter, as long as the person is in his hands, he doesn't have to worry about telling the truth. Then he asked again:
"How much money will this little Eunuch Yang get after everything is done?"
"He doesn't want any money." Liu Zheng said, "There is only one condition."
"Do I want to use your hand to get rid of Eunuch Yang?"
Liu Zheng nodded.
"Now that you have confessed everything, I will give you a way to survive." Min Zhanlian said, "If you have other important news, telling it will be of great benefit to your future."
"What other benefits are there?" Liu Wei looked frustrated, "I have worked hard for Mr. Wang for more than ten years. Not to mention the wind and rain, I don't know how much I have done in the work of licking blood with the tip of a knife.
After all, from the beginning to the end, he is just a pawn who can be summoned and taken away at a moment’s notice!” After saying this, he let out a long sigh.
Min Zhanlian understood what these people were thinking. He had sold his life to his master loyally for many years. Gradually, he felt that what he gained was not proportional to his efforts. He started to use his brain to try to make a big fortune and jumped ship. But things often didn't work out as he wished. After all, compared to
Master, they have much less energy and too many weaknesses. They often plan for a long time, but when implemented, it is mostly in vain. Not only that, they will also give the master a serious reason to deal with it.
Especially since he was attracted to women. He heard the chief jokingly say: Falling in love between middle-aged men and women is like a fire in an old house. It won't stop until it burns to the ground. And the girl from Shuluo Lehu's family obviously made it so.
Liu Zheng was stretched thin.
At this moment, it didn't matter whether the Australians or Wang Yehao were friends or foes of Liu Zhen, he was just unwilling to do so.
Since he was unwilling to give in, there was a breakthrough. Min Zhanlian had people take him to the wing and imprison him first, and then slowly work with him. Although the origin of Mr. Wang is unknown, he is determined to seek peace, which is important information.
"Bring the woman," he ordered, "while the others clear the house and bury the body. Be prepared!"
Since this is the headquarters where Liu Wei directs the kidnapping, there might be other contacts coming.
But the most critical thing was that he transcribed all the interrogation records neatly, and especially made a emphatically report on Yang Tianliang's preparation for "outwitness" - whether it was true or not, He Liansheng had to be prepared first.
After a while, the woman was brought into the room and her blindfold was untied. When she saw Min Zhanlian, she knelt down with a "pop" and kowtowed to beg for mercy. She kept saying that she was just a woman from Lehu, and told Liu
I don't know anything about the matter.
"Don't be afraid," Min Zhanlian said gently, "get up and talk."
Zhou Ruolan helped her up and comforted her a few more words. Min Zhanlian saw her look slightly calmer and asked, "What's your name?"
"My name is Sister Rui."
"How many years has Liu Zheng been grooming you?"
"Only, only one year." Sister Rui said anxiously, "But he has been drinking at the slave's house for three or four years."
