Rebirth of the eldest daughter

Chapter 1334: Your Highness, what is your original intention?
Bai Mingwei glanced at Liu Yao and Bai Yu, and then briefly explained the affairs of the Salesian Bureau: "Back to Your Highness, there is some progress on my side..."

Bai Yu listened silently and slowly closed his eyes.

The clasped hands behind his back showed that his mood was fluctuating violently.

But his silence also silently conveyed his powerlessness over the matter.

The world is like this, no one can save everyone.

Everyone who is serious about saving the world will always be helpless at some point.

Compared to him, Liu Yao's reaction was more violent.

Liu Yao looked in disbelief: "What?!"

Bai Mingwei's silence made his expression gradually become desperate:

"You said that while we are working so hard to save people, someone is reaching out to those children who are surviving the disaster and should be ushering in a new life after the disaster is over?!"

His eyes were about to burst: "You said that in a small Salesian Bureau, nearly 400 people have been brutally murdered?!"

His eyes were scarlet: "You said, those beasts are so rampant that they go directly to the place where the refugees are resettled to kidnap people?!"

Liu Yao kept asking questions, and what he waited for every question was not a definite answer, but shock at the existing facts.

When he was playing in the human world, he also visited many hook/lanyards.

But the girls there are elegant and well-educated. Although they are reduced to serving people, they have the most basic living security, and those who stand out can also get a certain amount of wealth and dignity.

However, the children in the Salesian Bureau are different. Their situation is worse than that of livestock.

At least the livestock will not be sold again and again, nor will they be killed again and again.

Liu Yao became more and more excited as he spoke. As his mind fluctuated, he put his hands on the table, as if he could hardly stand still.

He stared tightly in front of him, breathing heavily, and his eyes were full of heartache and anger.

From his experience in the frontier, he has already seen the world where people are not human beings and life is not life.

During his trip to Jiangbei, he also experienced that people are as insignificant as dust and grass in the face of disaster.

When he thought that the world could only be so cruel, something even more cruel and ugly would always come before him.

It seems that a large number of people in this world come to this world just to experience the suffering of the world.

Liu Yao was greatly shocked in his heart.

At this moment, he finally understood why the always calm general would return here full of anger.

Bai Mingwei lifted the teapot on the coffee table, slowly poured a glass of water, and handed it to Liu Yao: "Your Highness, the matter has come to an end. We need to draw up a resolution as soon as possible."

Liu Yao took the tea cup and poured it into his mouth.

The cold tea calmed his anxious heart.

He held the tea cup tightly and stared into his eyes, as cold as ice: "It seems that the general has an idea."

Bai Mingwei presented the account book to Liu Yao and said slowly: "This is one of the evidences that proves that those businessmen have dealings with corrupt officials."

"Based on the ledger and the information obtained from the Salesian Bureau, I have probably figured out the whole story."

Liu Yao said nothing and pursed his lips tightly.

Bai Yu asked: "These children were the first to connect Fan Zhizhou with his colleagues and even merchants, right?"

Bai Mingwei nodded: "Ten years ago, when my grandfather was still in the court, the restrictions on the powerful gentry were extremely strict. It was a capital crime for officials and wealthy gentry to rob civilian girls." "Fan Zhongqian seized on this point and made these things clean and ignorant. The child is sent to the target, and as long as the target cannot withstand the temptation, it is equivalent to giving the handle to him. "

"How can someone who can even make such a mistake risk his own life to fight with him to the death? So I can only choose to join him."

"He used these girls as threads and threads, and gradually weaved a large network of interests. He used this network to control everyone and turned everyone into a tool for his profit."

Having said this, Bai Mingwei opened one page of the account book, pointed at the person on it and said:
"The member Jin who died under my knife was one of them. He was also one of the first businessmen to be dragged into the water."

"Just this account book involves a large number of people; in addition to the local officials and gentry in Jiangbei, there are even officials appointed by the central government to inspect it over the years."

Bai Yu looked solemn: "Ten years of accounting has involved so many people. I guess the people on this account will run for Fan Zhongqian in order to avoid being implicated after they know that he has been detained."

"No wonder Fan Zhongqian has such a tough mouth. He is waiting for his accomplices to take advantage of him! And his accomplices are not simple. As long as he can hold on and endure the pain of prison, he will soon be able to return to his original state. Go up to the position.”

Liu Yao frowned: "There are several people here that we cannot touch. And these people are one of Fan Zhongqian's toughest backers."

"It is estimated that Qin Fengye used these people to directly contact Fan Zhongqian. If he can't move them, I'm afraid Fan Zhongqian won't do it."

Bai Mingwei said: "When the flood breaks through the embankment, the weakest part always collapses first. Their large network of interests also has weak parts."

Liu Yao's frown relaxed slightly: "The general means..."

Bai Mingwei said: "This account book overlaps with the merchants we found who were involved in hiding the stolen goods. Let's start with the merchants who appear in the account book and were involved in hiding the stolen goods."

"The evidence in our hands is conclusive. We don't need to show mercy to them. We will deal with them boldly and directly. These businessmen are no more powerful than the officials, so they will definitely be unable to withstand our actions. As long as we tear a hole in them, this big network will not be able to hold up." "

Liu Yao understood instantly. He compared the list with the account book, then tapped his finger on the account book, and then looked at Bai Yu:

"Lord Bai, you will immediately mobilize your troops and uproot these merchants later. I will make all their power completely collapse overnight!"

"Seeing their fate, their accomplices should be unable to sit still. But there are only two choices waiting for these people - either to testify against Fan Zhizhou in order to reduce their punishment, or to wait for the harshest sanctions."

Bai Yu immediately handed over his hand: "Wei Chen takes orders!"

Liu Yao looked at Bai Mingwei and continued: "Some of the merchants involved in this account book should be trying to cultivate the disease just like the Jin family."

"The people Lord Bai will deal with next may not be the people who tried to cultivate the epidemic. General, please continue to pursue this matter and bring every merchant who deserves to be punished to death to justice!"

Bai Ming responded slightly: "I accept your order!"

Liu Yao slowly straightened up and his eyes became extremely sharp: "During this period, I will cooperate with Zhang Shilang to deal with Fan Zhongqian."

"Whether we can capture Fan Zhongqian depends on whether our evidence is conclusive. None of the evidence currently points to him. You can imagine how cautious he is."

"For such a cautious person, the merchant's testimony is not enough. He needs other more tangible evidence to completely make him stand up."

Bai Mingwei took over the conversation: "Fan Ruixian has more than just the Fu'an Salesian Bureau. If we can get more information from her, we will be able to get twice the result with half the effort."

Bai Yu said, "Mingwei mentioned before that the issue of the flow of interests. From the stolen goods found in the warehouse and this account book, we understand their network of interests."

"In addition to defeating the merchants with the weakest defenses to follow the clues and dig out more people, it is also important to know the flow of their interests."

Liu Yao nodded in agreement: "Master Bai is absolutely right."

"This matter involves so many people. If we can't find out how much benefit they got from it, how these benefits came into their hands, and who is the biggest beneficiary...then the evidence will always be unconvincing. "

"Only when the witnesses and material evidence are complete, they will be unable to argue and can only plead guilty! No matter how many tricks they use, they will not be able to escape punishment!"

Bai Mingwei said: "I think Fan Ruixian might be able to help."
