Chapter 454 Buying and Selling

Shen Hao didn't expect that Wang Jian would sort out some new things in Xu's business. But it sounds a little unreliable.

"Are you sure it's a pill business? Where did the Xu family get the pills for sale? Are they all high-end products?"

"Yes, my lord, this subordinate is sure."

"Tell me carefully!" Shen Hao flipped through the document that Wang Jian handed over, looked at the catalog, and then turned to the part involving the pill, while letting Wang Jian continue to introduce.

"My lord, although it is true that there is no category of "elixir" in the accounts of the Xu family, medicinal materials are used instead. However, the accounts they make are obviously hidden, and the profits in and out are obviously far greater than the normal trading of medicinal materials. Profit ratio. At first we suspected that it might involve bribery in disguise, so we followed the accounts of the Xu family to check them, and found that the transaction context in the accounts was all false."

"Fake? They cheated on their own accounts?"

"It should be to deceive people's eyes and ears. If we didn't have a large number of records as a reference, we wouldn't be able to see the clues so easily from the profits of these "medicinal materials". If someone else checks it, he will definitely be confused."

Shen Hao said hello with satisfaction. It seems that Wang Jian did not ignore his previous words, and has begun to taste the sweetness of "big data".

Wang Jian continued to help Shen Hao figure out the situation, and said: "After we found out that there was a problem, we continued to follow the specific flow of bank notes on the account, and after checking with the bank, we found that the Xu family's business in this area was all scattered and unrecognizable. Silver bills are not the kind of large-value silver bills that are generally used for large transactions. This is even more strange. Why are you so careful in buying and selling that you use scattered silver bills? Is it because you are worried about being traced back to the source of the silver bills?

If someone else might really have no choice, but this method of using scattered banknotes to sell goods is very familiar to the Black Flag Camp. The business on Feilong's side is now showing signs of recovery, and 90% of the money in it is worthless. It's this kind of scattered silver bills.

So we concluded at the time that what the Xu family hid in the accounts was probably a black market business. "

Shen Hao also happened to see this part of the document.

"So I asked Feilong to help me check it out, and found that the so-called "medicinal materials" in the Xu family's accounts are actually pills. There are a lot of them, and the grades are all middle-to-high grades, which is very strange."

"Feilong found it? How did he find it? Can he reach beyond Jingxi now?"

"Returning to my lord, based on the amount in and out of Xu's account and the time of the transaction, it can be roughly estimated. Feilong will go to find someone familiar with the relationship to check the recent transactions and it will be confirmed. And the Ministry of Impermanence has already done it according to Feilong. I have sorted out the news, and it is confirmed that it is the Xu family. As for how the connection came, the subordinates have not had time to ask."

Shen Hao continued to scroll down, and found that Xu's family took a lot of pills from the black market. From the beginning of this year to the end of June alone, there are a total of 31 pills, of which 29 are middle-grade. , two high-grade ones. However, there are very few elixirs of true qi support, and they are basically healing elixirs.

Even if it is not the most sought-after type of Dan, this number is extremely astonishing.

"Have you found out how these Dans came from?"

"I don't know. I only know that the person who helped Xu's family through the black market channel is a middleman named Wang Wu. This guy has been stared down by the Impermanence Department. I want to find out about his situation before taking him down."

Because he has been writing the case file for the past two days, Shen Hao has a good idea of ​​the progress and gains of each stage of the "Ma San Case". Consciously, I thought of some speculations about this case before.

"Do you still remember that when you captured Ma Sankui, you found a lot of pills from his storage bag?"

"My subordinates remember that at that time Ma Sankui confessed that those pills were given to him by the sect behind him." As he spoke, Wang Jian's eyes lit up, and he said anxiously: "My lord, do you think the pills sold by the Xu family are Came from the false cult sect behind Ma Sankui?"

Shen Hao hummed, and then said: "Ma Sankui doesn't know what's going on between the sect behind him, the barbarians, and Xu Hong. He's just a pawn. If these strange things are connected, it may be possible to get something different.

For example, Ma Sankui said before that the barbarians provided the money for buying goods, all of which were bank notes from the Jingjiu dynasty bank. Is it possible that these bank notes were actually exchanged by the barbarians for materials from the Xu family? And some special varieties of these medicinal materials are paid to the sect behind Ma Sankui as a reward. And at the same time, the sect behind Ma Sankui was doing the pill business with the Xu family? "

Logically, it is not impossible, because pills are consumables, one is less than one to eat, and alchemists are extremely scarce professions, especially high-grade alchemists are controlled by major sects, ordinary monks Apart from buying pills at the auction house at a bloody price like cutting flesh, you can only enjoy the quota allocated by the imperial court according to your position and title like Xuan Qingwei or the army.

The pills distributed are far from enough. Not everyone has a black beast tattoo like Shen Hao, which can help him find another way to obtain energy for practice, and often the higher the cultivation level, the greater the demand for pills. Considering the existence of drug resistance, the consumption of pills is even more scary.

The Xu family had a motive to obtain more pills, not only for their own use, but also for selling them on the black market at a huge profit. The supply was simply in short supply.

"After you go down later, find Ma Sankui to check the situation again. And then the black market middleman who helped Xu's distribution will also continue to stare at him. Don't panic. Make sure that there are no other threads involved in that person before taking him down."

"The subordinate understands."

"Also, um, you should find a way to cover up the matter involving the elixir in the Xu family's accounts, so that no clues will appear in our internal documents or in the evidence of the side files in the future. Do you understand what I mean?"

"Ah? This subordinate understands it. After returning this time, this subordinate will ask the people below to handle the account books, so that no one will see the clues."

"That's good, you step back, hurry up."

"Good sir, then this subordinate will leave." Wang Jian bowed and retreated. He didn't know why Shen Hao concealed this part of the case, but he chose to "don't ask what shouldn't be asked", and Mr. Shen would definitely tell him what he should know.

Wang Jian left. Shen Hao continued to write and compile the dossier. In the evening, he finished compiling the file of the "Ma San Case", read it through himself, and then put it away. But it didn't contain the part about the "elixir" brought by Wang Jian at noon today.
