Although Wei Yuan's face was burning on the inside, it was not visible on the outside. He just stood with his hands behind his back, and then quietly put away the Dharma Prime Minister Long Wei.
Wei Yuan observed the noble young master below attentively. It had been a long time since he had seen a character who dared to touch his nose and face like this. Ever since he achieved Dharma Appearance, even Lord Yu Jing had to take a high look. This noble young man is indeed
Rare creatures need to be carefully observed.
The noble young master glanced at the sky and said simply: "There's no need to be busy, someone has already discovered him."
Then he walked to the courtyard and looked at Wei Yuan nonchalantly.
Before he could speak, Wei Yuan asked: "Who is your father?"
Originally, your young master had already said "Do you know who I am?" but he choked back.
He subconsciously replied: "It doesn't matter who my father is, but my eldest brother-in-law is the Marquis of Zhao Ping'an! My second brother-in-law is the King of Zhao!"
Wei Yuan studied the face of this noble young master and retrieved all his information. He was the boss of this caravan. This time, he was probably out of curiosity and went to Qingming himself.
The real boss behind this caravan is actually Marquis Ping'an. As for the second sister, she is just a very ordinary concubine of King Zhao, who is below average among the concubines.
Going to Qingming once, although the risk is high, the profit is also astonishingly high. It seems that this young master came to Qingming to get gold. After two trips to the caravan, the performance is not enough, and then he goes back to take advantage of the opportunity.
But Wei Yuan was confused. This young master was both stupid and arrogant. He had no ability and could only rely on his family, and his eyesight was not very good. Only this man could handle so many tasks from the director of the transportation team to the director of the porridge shed in such a short period of time.
people?
Wei Yuan didn't plan to put too much thought into it, and decided to just settle the matter. He glanced at the heavily armed luxury escorts and said, "It's amazing that you dare to confront my troops."
As soon as he finished speaking, Wei Yuan added a heavy earth technique to them. The body of each guard member suddenly weighed more than a thousand kilograms. Their legs could not bear the pressure and broke with a clicking sound. All the guards instantly fell to the ground.
There was a lot of wailing.
An old man in the caravan snorted, flew up, and said angrily: "Isn't it beneath the status of the Realm Lord to attack these servants?"
He was only halfway through his words when Wei Yuan pointed towards the sky and a bolt of lightning struck the old man instantly!
At the critical moment, the old man cast a spell to resist, but before he could make any more moves, lightning strikes followed. In the blink of an eye, Wei Yuan used dozens of thunderbolts to break up the old man's defense, and then used dozens of thunderbolts to beat him into pieces.
Seriously injured.
In the eyes of onlookers, it was just a flash of lightning that lasted a little longer. Suddenly, the old man's whole body was blackened and he fell down.
This old man was also a Dharma cultivator, and was the sea-fixing needle of the caravan. Even the noble young master had to show courtesy, but he didn't expect that Wei Yuan would beat him unconscious the moment he met him.
Wei Yuan took advantage of the old man's last glimmer of consciousness and said calmly: "Although you are a Dharma minister, you may not be able to hold on for a breath longer than these guards."
The old man was so angry that his eyes went black and he completely lost consciousness.
Wei Yuan raised his hand and chopped. He originally wanted to split the warehouse in half to reveal the grain piled inside. But he then thought about it. According to the law that has not yet been promulgated, this caravan has committed such a big thing.
All assets should be confiscated. So with this strike, Wei Yuan's own property will be struck.
So Wei Yuan retracted his half-stretched hand, reluctantly gave up such a domineering move, and ordered someone to open the door and inspect the warehouse.
The warehouse door opened, and it was indeed filled with rice. With all the evidence gathered, Wei Yuan didn't bother to talk to the caravan members and arrested them all.
After the initial deliberation, in the evening, the transportation team director, deputy director, and twenty porridge shack owners, whose evidence was conclusive and irrefutable, were all hanged, and their bodies were hung in the southern town for public display.
As for the people in the caravan, who was the chief envoy, who was an accomplice, and who was unaware needed to be carefully screened. Wei Yuan ordered people to examine it carefully and make a file to ensure that it was watertight. This file was prepared to deal with
From the State of Zhao.
The incident was settled now, but Baoyun saw that Wei Yuan was not in a good mood, so she quietly came over.
In the night, Wei Yuan stood on the top of the main peak, looking at the vast sky and the stars, silently thinking about something.
Baoyun came to him and asked: "Are you still angry about what happened during the day?"
"That's not enough to be angry. I just don't understand why, in such a short period of time, all the owners of twenty porridge restaurants were taken down without missing a single one?"
Baoyun sighed softly and said: "Human nature is greedy. This is nature and no one can change it."
"The two incidents before and after were all instigated by people from the caravan, and they were both from the State of Zhao!"
Baoyun said: "Qing Ming is a treasure now, and everyone wants to get a share of it. This is normal. Businessmen value profits, and sometimes they forget their justice and do whatever it takes, but it is not necessarily the king of Zhao who instigated it. If the king of Zhao wants to do such a thing,
, the handwriting should be much bigger.”
Wei Yuan thought about it and said: "Qing Ming is still too easy to be penetrated, but I calculated that if we want to pay the leaders according to what the caravan promised, the three or four Qing Ming will not be enough."
Baoyun said: "It's useless. No matter how much you give, they can always give you more, or even several times more. After all, you are facing the entire Qingming, and they are facing only those who want to take it.
The people below."
"What should we do?"
"There are always ways to establish supervision, verify one case and punish each case, which may be effective, but it is impossible to eradicate corruption."
Wei Yuan knew that supervision would eventually be alienated. There were many precedents in the history of setting up multiple supervisors to supervise each other. Some even set up four factories in the east, west, north and south, plus seven guards such as Jinyi, blackyi, silveryi and redyi. Finally,
The situation was that if the factory guards had the same interests, they would divide the spoils, and if they disagreed, they would bite each other, causing the whole court to become a mess.
For the common people, there are several large temples above their heads, making them even more miserable.
There is no answer to this matter in the history books. In the end, Wei Yuan could only say: "Let's take it one step at a time."
At this time, both of them had countless things to do, so Baoyun didn't stay long and said to Wei Yuan: "It's time for me to go, come here, give me a hug!"
As they hugged each other, Baoyun suddenly said: "I'm so afraid that after any battle I will suddenly not be able to see you, or you will never see me again."
Wei Yuan's heart trembled, he hugged her hard, then reached out and pinched her waist.
Baoyun rolled her eyes and moved Wei Yuan's hand downwards, so that Wei Yuan's hand drew a beautiful, round and somewhat exaggerated arc.
Before Wei Yuan could make the next move, Baoyun pushed him away, kissed Wei Yuan gently on the cheek, and then flew away.
After Bao Yun left, Wei Yuan thought for a moment, then went to Feng Chutang's residence and talked with him for two whole hours.
Before leaving, Wei Yuan said: "I will do that thing."
"It may not be effective, you have to think clearly."
"It would be good to have one more chance." Wei Yuan opened the door and left.
…
Nine hundred miles away in the Wu Clan Lake District, Hongye seemed not to notice the strange looks from the ghost witches on the left and right. He calmly completed his daily routine of sacrifices, then left the altar and returned to the palace he had just built.
The entire palace is built of black volcanic stone. It is towering and domineering. It is dry, warm and steamy. It is not an environment that ordinary ghost witches like at all.
The holy witch was dressed in white robes, sitting above a ball of flames, and said: "The human race is determined to fight to the death and will not give in. If we continue to fight, even if we can defeat Qing Ming, your Kingdom of Rain will be greatly damaged, and it may not be possible."
Suppress the surrounding tribes. You see, the Huangzu tribe dare not join the war this time."
Hongye looked gloomy and said: "They thought that because they hugged Long Zhe's lap, they would not take me seriously. Soon I will let Dahuangzhi know how wrong he was!"
"Even if you conquer the entire Qingming, you still won't be able to enter Ningzhou. Going further inside is Xu Wangu's territory."
"When I take down Qing Ming, I won't be afraid of Xu Wangu anymore."
The Holy Witch's expression changed, "You mean, you have found a way out?"
Hongye said slowly: "The will of the ancestral witch promises that as long as it can fill the gap in the sky, it can free up a position for the witch!"
The Holy Witch's face changed drastically this time, and after a moment he said, "What do you need me to do?"
"One, find a way to deal with that magic weapon."
"This is okay."
"Second, I want Long Zhe's weakness!"
But the Holy Witch shook his head: "This can't be done, Long Zhe has no weakness!"
Hongye suddenly roared: "Impossible! It definitely has a weakness! Otherwise, it wouldn't have taken him so long to defeat me last time. I can feel that there are flaws in its power, and it will suddenly appear every once in a while.
Come down."
The holy witch thought thoughtfully: "It sounds like the key is in the Youhan Realm. But that's all in this world. In the Youhan World, it is the strongest witch. If it hides its weaknesses secretly in the Youhan Realm,
In the cold world, there is nothing anyone can do."
"If you can't beat it, you can steal it!"
"That will cost a lot..."
There was a dangerous light in Hong Ye's eyes, and he said: "That's why I came to you. When I was a ghost witch, I only fought hard against Long Zhe and lost. Once I become a celestial witch, do you think Long Zhe will still be my opponent?"
"
The holy witch was thoughtful, and after a moment he said, "Well, I can think of a way, and there happens to be a suitable candidate. However, I need..."
