my wife is a consul

Chapter 56
The population market behind the Dashunfa Vegetable Market is said to be densely packed with black slaves selling cabbage in its heyday. There is a famous painting "Nukou Interchange Market Map" that depicts this scene.

But now, the superficial form has become a labor recruitment market. Those black slaves and prostitution servants all sign a lifelong death contract. If they break the contract, it will be an unimaginable astronomical sum. Residence permit, when going out, there is a small iron plate of the owner’s house as an identity certificate, and it’s better for prostituted servants, because their families are too poor and they sell money to supplement their families, they will also apply for a residence permit, and have certain civil rights, If you won't be beaten to death by your master, you will have nowhere to redress your grievances.

However, in the past decade or so, this market has also been under great pressure and has often become the target of verbal criticism from newspapers and magazines. Moreover, this crusade has become more and more intense.

However, the owner of the market is a Western family with a long history in the East China Sea. Up to now, the family still retains a viscount title and a baron title that can be inherited. In addition, the upper classes generally do not resist the existence of domestic slaves. In the usual raids and rectifications on the market, there is a lot of thunder and little rain, and they pass the test safely every time.

Lu Ming walked around the market. It is true that this place has long since lost its grandeur. It looks very depressed. Many tin houses are empty, and every tin house is actually a stall for human traffickers.

I feel that I can't figure out anything even if I look at the flowers like this.

When he came out of the market, he found a public telephone booth. Lu Ming called Wen Liangyu and asked him if there was any familiar merchant in the "Dashunfa Migrant Market" and introduced him to him.

Wen Liangyu was silent for a while, and said, tonight, you can meet my second brother.

Lu Ming did not conduct a detailed investigation of Wen's family. Although it was a business place, since he made friends, there was no need to think carefully about everything.

However, come to think of it, Beiguan used to have one of the largest slave markets in the empire. How could the Wen family not get involved in the lucrative slave trade?

It seems that the Wen family's second child inherited and took charge of the business.

……

The five tigers of the Wen family are named respectively, Wen Liangmei, Wen Liangren, Wen Liangru, Wen Liangyu, and Wen Lianghe.

It seems that Wen Liangyu's father, the former godfather of Beiguan, is really not very educated, but the word "harmony" of the fifth child has achieved a good result.

However, it is rumored that there are also serious internal conflicts among the Wen family's five tigers, especially the eldest Wen Liangmei, who is very dissatisfied with Wen Liangyu's control of most of the family's power.

Therefore, the "harmony" of the five tigers is just the extravagant wish of the old godfather who has passed away.

In private room No. 88, Lu Ming met Wen Liangren. He and Wen Liangyu could hardly tell that they were blood brothers.

But unfortunately, the two are siblings of the same father and mother.

Wenliang is extremely fat, with a big belly and a waist as thick as a bucket. He wears a floral shirt and white trousers. He is bald and has patterned tattoos on his face. His thick fingers are covered with gold rings. Gangsters are exactly the same.

It is in sharp contrast with the gentle and elegant atmosphere of Wen Liangyu.

When shaking hands with Lu Ming, Wen Liang grinned with his thick lips, and exerted force on his hand.

Lu Ming gasped in pain, but held back his silence.

Wen Liang grinned, "Little brother, you want it, not the little boy with a flower gun."

Wen Liangyu's face darkened, "Second brother, don't mess around! Lawyer Lu is not one of your cronies, please apologize to Lawyer Lu!" Thousands of reminders, but this reckless second brother saw that the other party was young, so he said his words It fell into my ears.

The Wenliang man frowned. The fourth child still pays attention to his brotherhood in front of others, and rarely speaks to him so harshly.

Lu Ming smiled and waved his hands: "It's okay, it's okay!" Then he smiled at Wen Liangren: "Second brother Wen, you have a lot of strength, I admire you!"

The Wenliang man grinned, and gradually felt that although Lawyer Lu was young, like the fourth child, he faintly had the aura of being a master.

"Qianxing, if you have anything to do, let the second brother do it. Da Shunfa is familiar with him." Wen Liangyu snapped his fingers, and the waiter brought a bottle of beautifully packaged foreign wine and various side dishes on the tea table .

The warm and cool person chuckled: "Lawyer Lu, I have six halls in Dashunfa, and if a mosquito flies in there, it can't escape my eyeliner. If Lawyer Lu needs a girl, tell me what flavor I like? Black? Mixed race? Western Regions? Or from our Central Continent? In the next month, I will choose the best one. As you know, there are very few products coming in now. If you want Lawyer Lu to like it, you have to choose carefully."

"Six halls?" Lu Ming was puzzled.

"It's just six iron houses..." Wen Liang patted his bald head, and said anxiously: "Lawyer Lu, I used to have more than a dozen halls, but now this business is in a downturn, and the entire Dashunfa only has more than 20 Hall!"

Lu Ming thought for a while, "In the past year, have there been any customers who have special needs for boys aged seven or eight?"

"Yes!" Wen Liang said with a smile: "How could there be no such thing, besides, they are all the kind of people with heads and faces..."

Lu Ming's heart moved slightly, "Then, is there someone who lasts for a long time and comes to find the target after a while? It is possible that the boys he needs have some similarities, such as..."

Lu Ming pondered over various research books on psychopathy in his previous life, "Maybe, they have the same hairstyle? Or, they look alike? Or maybe, they have moles on their faces?"

It is not surprising to say that a pedophile who likes boys is not surprising, but if it is a serial killing, there are deep-seated reasons. It is very likely that he only targets boys with similar characteristics. He is crazy.

And the surviving little boy had a mole on his face.

"Ah? This..." Wen Liangren frowned and thought about it, shaking his head blankly.

"Second brother Wen, please help me find out, thank you!" Lu Ming raised his glass.

"No problem, no problem!" Wen Liang smiled and toasted with Lu Ming.

"Qianxing, do you think that if the Dongying people really tortured and killed many boys, are there any similarities between these boys?" Wen Liangyu turned sideways and asked Lu Ming in a low voice.

He never asked too much about things that had nothing to do with him. Although he knew that Lu Ming came for the Dongying case as soon as he heard Lu Ming's question, he didn't reveal it to his second brother, Wen Liang. Why did Ming check on the boy, and never told his second brother Wen Liangren that Lu Ming was a member of the prosecution team in the case of the Dongying people.

Now that I suddenly asked this sentence, I was naturally too surprised, and I didn't understand why these boys must have similarities?

"Well, it's possible." Lu Ming nodded.

"Qianxing, put that Dongying man in prison!" Wen Liangyu raised his glass suddenly, and clinked glasses with Lu Ming with a very solemn expression.

Lu Ming was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly: "I will send him to the gallows!"

Wen Liangyu let out a hey in her heart, this little brother is indeed remarkable.

The nobles of Dongying may have killed the people of Zhongzhou, but there is no conclusive evidence. According to the common people's thinking, if they can be imprisoned, they are considered as guilty of the common people. But this little brother, seeing the determination in his eyes just now, knows that, To send that Dongpu villain to the gallows is definitely not a simple talk.

Patting Lu Ming on the shoulder, Wen Liangyu also nodded vigorously, without saying a word.

The two of them, at this moment, seem to be more inexplicably close than before.

Maybe it's because I found that the other party is very similar to myself in a certain aspect, and has similar values ​​​​in a certain aspect.

"Qianxing, Lao Zhao found me, I know all about the misunderstanding between you!" Wen Liangyu's voice was still very low, trying not to let Wen's second son hear it.

Lu Ming smiled: "There is no misunderstanding, I am indeed going to withdraw my capital!"

Wen Liangyu sighed softly, "Old Zhao's children don't know much, and Lao Zhao was also confused by their quarrel, and what he did was muddled. You can withdraw the capital. At the beginning, Lao Zhao asked us to raise 20 yuan. It's not easy to take it out for a while, but it's also because Lao Zhao has no successors, and Lao Liu and I discussed it in private, and we also feel that the prosperity has come to an end!"

Lu Ming pondered, "Although I signed the agreement that Lingwei purchased from Xingwang, even if I am no longer a shareholder, this agreement will not be invalidated." He paused, "So Xingwang has overcome the difficulties Well, after I withdraw the capital, they can reduce the scale, cut down some miscellaneous production lines, and focus on the production of seat belts, so they won’t be unable to survive.”

Wen Liangyu froze for a moment, then smiled slightly, "That's because you are kind." Clinking glasses with Lu Ming, the look in Lu Ming's eyes was a little different.

The phone on the desk near the floor-to-ceiling windows rang, and the waiter went to answer it. He took two quick steps and bent slightly to Lu Ming's ear, "Lawyer Lu, your phone number."

"Okay!" Lu Ming got up and walked over.

It was Wang Xiaohu who called from Jinshun Hotel.

After hearing what he said, Lu Ming's face changed slightly, "Second brother, fourth brother, I have to go, I'm in a hurry!"

What Wen Liang wanted to say, he wanted to persuade Lu Ming to finish his drink before leaving, but when Wen Liangyu stared at him, he could only lower his head sullenly.

The waiter brought Lu Ming's coat and hat to help him put it on. Lu Ming stretched his arms into the sleeves and said, "Second brother, I'm asking you for my inquiries!" "Fourth brother, I'm leaving!"

Wen Liangyu nodded with a smile, got up and sent him out of the private room.
