"If you don't agree, I will kneel here forever and never get up!"

The two looked at each other, turned around and left, "Then just kneel down."

When Lan Zhili saw this, he thought to himself that these two people didn't play according to the routine at all. How come they didn't even have basic politeness, so he got up and chased after him, saying: "Don't bother me!"

Fan Xiaodao said: "That's right, if you have something to say, let's talk it over. We won't do that!"

Lan Zhili said: "I was the one who was abrupt!"

After sitting down again, Lan Zhili filled up the glasses of wine for the two of them and apologized: "Don't blame me for being polite. I was just like this because I had something to hide."

Zhao Xing said coldly: "A man told me to go see the doctor in secret. We are police officers. I'm afraid you went to the wrong temple."

Lan Zhili was stunned for a moment and said awkwardly: "Captain Zhao is really good at joking. I can't do anything about what happened today. Please drink these two glasses of wine, and I'll confess something to you two."

Zhao Xing frowned. In the previous case of Sun Mengwu, it was his duty to help Lan Zhili. He had no feelings for this person, but today he felt a kind of disgust for no reason. No matter whether he knelt down just now or persuaded him to drink, he was always there.

Intentionally or unintentionally, they exercised control and exerted mental control on the two of them in a subtle way. However, the two of them refused to accept this trick and said coldly: "If you say it, say it. If you don't say it, don't say it."

Lan Zhili said: "I knew in advance about the meeting between Feng Liuzhi and the deputy envoy of the Northern Zhou Dynasty a few days ago. In addition to them, there was also a ruthless person traveling with him. I was just afraid, so on the night of the transaction, I hid in the brothel.

One night, they wanted those 10,000 kilograms of tung oil, not to sell it to the north, but to do a big thing."

Fan Xiaodao thought, this is right. Originally, the imperial court controlled tung oil in the capital, and there were extremely strict requirements for the entry and exit of tung oil. Even if they wanted to buy tung oil, they could negotiate a good price and deliver it outside the city, and save money.

Many people enter the city

Tariffs, and it is extremely uneconomical for them to buy tung oil in the capital. Naturally, they are not buying tung oil for use. Considering that the buyer is from the Northern Zhou Dynasty, with these ten thousand kilograms of tung oil, if they want to do anything illegal, I am afraid

It can make a lot of noise.

Thinking of this, Fan Xiaodao's expression changed drastically and he asked: "What's the big deal?"

"They seemed to be planning to burn down some government palace."

Zhao Xing was shocked and said: "Jingguo Duke's Mansion!"

The two realized the seriousness of the situation. The Jinling Li family's case was investigated and handled by Jinyiwei, and the person responsible for the case was none other than His Majesty's foster brother, Jinyiwei commander Xue Yingxiong. If the descendants of the Jinling Li family wanted to take revenge,

, then Xue Yingxiong is naturally the person he must kill. With Li Zhixing's methods, he can turn Xue Yingxiong's family into ashes. He can do such a thing.

"But what does it have to do with you?"

Lan Zhili said: "Our tung oil is also divided into upper and lower grades. I didn't expect that Feng Liuzhi was obsessed with money. He passed off the 100 barrels of tung oil as inferior and traded some tung oil mixed with additives. These oils

It can also be burned, but it's OK as lamp oil, but when used to kill people and set fires, the effect is a little worse. After they noticed it, they came to the door last night and said that if they couldn't hand over the tung oil, Feng Liuzhi's fate would be my fate!"

Zhao Xing sneered: "You are really unscrupulous! Then why did you lie yesterday?"

Lan Zhili confessed: "I had just escaped from prison. I was lucky and wanted to calm things down, so I didn't tell the truth."

"Now that he is afraid of death, he has come to us for help."

Fan Xiaodao saw that Zhao Xing had a bad temper and said: "The tung oil they want is in Yutai Oil Factory, and it has been seized. Why are you looking for us?"

Lan Zhili said: "I want you two to do a favor. First, transfer the officials from the oil mill, take out the inventory in the oil depot, and hand it over to them. Otherwise, I'm afraid my life will be in danger."

Zhao Xing said sternly: "Then do you know what the consequences will be if you hand over the tung oil to them? If we investigate in the future, you will still die!"

"So I came here early today to invite you two to discuss it?"

Zhao Xing asked: "How do you want us to help you?"

Lan Zhili said: "I am afraid of death. With the method he used to deal with Xiao Yilu and Feng Liuzhi, if I am targeted by such people, I am afraid that I will not be able to live in peace day and night, so I kindly ask you to find a way to transfer the guards of the oil shop."

, we complete this deal, and it is up to you whether to arrest or release him afterwards."

Fan Xiaodao took advantage of the situation and said: "Then why don't we take the opportunity to set up an ambush, and when their people arrive, we will catch the turtle in the jar?"

Zhao Xingdao: "You underestimate Li Zhixing too much. Now all the policemen in the capital can't find him. With his scheming, he will definitely not come forward in person for this kind of thing. If we do this, we will only alert the snake. If we try to catch him in the future, we will

It's even harder. Let's try Brother Lan's suggestion. Tonight, the two of us will disguise ourselves and pretend to be the guys from the oil shop. We will meet them for a while and the deal will be successful. All we need to do is follow them, follow the clues, and take the opportunity to find their hiding place.

.”

Hearing Li Zhixing's name, Lan Zhili showed a look of astonishment on his face, and then he was relieved. He pointed to the gold on the table and said, "So please accept it, and treat it as money to buy your life."

Coming out of Lan's house, Fan Xiaodao asked: "Are we really going to take such a risk?"

Zhao Xing asked, "How much do you believe Lan Zhili's words?"

Fan Xiaodao scratched his head, "Originally I believed two or three points, but now I believe it is seventy or eight points."

Zhao Xing sneered, "I don't believe a single bit of what he said." He stretched out his hand and said to Fan Xiaodao, "Bring it here."

"What?"

"Gold."

Fan Xiaodao said dissatisfied: "Just now you were so upright and sternly refused so much money. I just accepted a gold ingot, and you came to ask for it. Is it appropriate?" Even so, Fan Xiaodao still handed the gold to Zhao Xing, and Zhao Xing accepted it.

After passing the gold ingot, I looked at it carefully and walked straight to the inner street without going back to the six doors.

"Where are we going?"

Zhao Xingdao: "Qianzhuang."

Zhao Xing pressed the mark on the gold ingot and came to China Merchants Bank, China Merchants Bank and Datong Bank. Shanxi Merchants Bank is the three largest banks in the capital, especially China Merchants Bank. The owner is a Jianghu family from Jiangnan. In the past, it was only operated by the Jiangnan generation.

A few years ago, the bank expanded its business to the capital. In recent years, relying on its reputation, the bank has gradually turned it into one of the largest bank accounts.

The bank manager's surname was Jin. He was in his forties and had a goatee. There was a shrewd look in his eyes. When he saw the gold they brought, he welcomed them into the inner hall.

Zhao Xing got straight to the point, "Is this gold coming from your bank?"

The shopkeeper has been doing business all year round and often interacts with officials. He did not dare to neglect and said: "It is the gold ingot from my shop."

"Then you also know our purpose, right?"

"I'm sorry for being so stupid, but please let me know."

Zhao Xingdao: "This gold was redeemed by the Jiangnan Lan family from your ticket number, right?"

The shopkeeper said: "Exactly."

"I want all the accounts opened by Jiangnan Lan Family in your bank account, including records of gold and silver tickets, as well as records of incoming and outgoing exchanges."

Shopkeeper Jin was a little hesitant. Their principle of open business is not to reveal the privacy of customers. This is also the basis for China Merchants Bank to gain a foothold. It is precisely because of the trust of customers that they have established a good reputation and have a steady stream of customers. However, Zhao Xing

It was difficult for him to check the accounts.

"I'm afraid it's inappropriate."

Zhao Xing said coldly: "We are investigating a major case supervised by the palace, and we followed the clues to find your ticket number. If you don't cooperate, if your bank is found to have provided money to them in the future, I'm afraid that your ticket number

There’s no need to open it in the capital.”

"You two don't have formal search procedures. I want to ask my boss for instructions on this matter."

Fan Xiaodao saw him resisting and said displeasedly: "We don't have time to listen to your nonsense, you can make up your own mind."

Shopkeeper Jin's eyes flickered and he said: "Then only you know about this matter, but you must keep it a secret for me, otherwise I won't be able to keep my job."

"That's natural."

Shopkeeper Jin turned around and returned to the ticket number. Not long after, he took out an account, which was the current account of the Jiangnan Lan family in Beijing Merchants Bank. The two of them took it and looked through it. Shopkeeper Jin stood aside with his hands lowered and waited on them carefully.

I discovered that in the past six months, the Jiangnan Lan family

I have deposited nearly 300,000 taels of silver at China Merchants Bank, and on the fourth day of August, I received a sum of 200,000 taels of silver. In the past two months, I have paid out 100,000 taels of silver in the form of gold, silver and bills.

There are tens of thousands of taels, and every payment in and out is written clearly.

"The fourth day of August?" Fan Xiaodao asked, "Isn't it the day when Sun Mengwu was killed when I first entered the capital? After that, Lan Zhili was arrested by the government. Could it be that the money was used by the Lan family to buy

Money for life-saving measures?”

Zhao Xingdao: "The time is wrong. I won't be caught today, so the money will be credited, right?"

Lan Zhili seemed to be elegant and honest, but after two days of contact, the two of them realized that he was not what he seemed. When they thought about his face when he was tried in court that day, they were even more sure that this person was not that simple.

, there should be some secrets hidden in him.

Check again!

People lie, but numbers don't lie.

There were more than 100,000 taels of silver, and each transaction was followed by a withdrawal ticket stub and a signature. Some were withdrawn from Feng Liuzhi and some were withdrawn from Lan Zhili. Most of them were withdrawn by banknotes, and there were also many cash exchanges. Fan Xiaodao asked, "This banknote

What are the rules for exchanging notes for money?"

Shopkeeper Jin explained: "We have more than a dozen bank accounts all over the world, and all of them can be redeemed. For example, if the Lan family's money needs to be transported to the capital, the journey is far away, and we need to hire a bodyguard, and the road is not peaceful, so we deposit it with the Jinling bank account.

A three-part bill will be issued, with one coupon given to the other party and one coupon kept in the bank account.

Ling archives, and a copy is sent to us. The other party uses the voucher to redeem it. After we verify that it is correct, we will set up an account for them and issue a pass. However, the merchant deposits and withdraws money as needed, and we pay on sight.

In this way, it can save merchants a lot of trouble.”

Fan Xiaodao looked through the accounts and wondered: "Why are some of the signatures so strange?"

Shopkeeper Jin said: "After the Lan family takes away the banknote, we don't care whether it is given away or used. As long as it is our banknote and there is a balance in their account, we will pay it. What you said

A few of them, so small that I can clearly remember them, were collected by a few barbarians."
