Chapter 389 Ou Doudou is the man who wants to be the Pirate King
Thinking of this, Li Jize felt that it was completely feasible, especially his useless Ou Doudou. If he was to be executed, after all, in this era of blood relatives.
But if I keep it, keep it with me, that would be even more disgusting and degrading. Why not do it? Why not let Oudoudou be "One Piece's man"?
On the one hand, being a pirate is a very promising job! This can be regarded as a good way for him, the older brother, to find a good future for his younger brother.
On the other hand, keeping him around was disgusting, and letting him go was even more disgusting! Li Jize might as well send him overseas, and this matter could not be known to his biological parents.
and so……
Li Jize ordered people to accept these captives, and then gave Wang Yuanya a letter, asking her to hand over Li Jihuan.
After all, Li Jize, the "ex-husband brother", is the financial backer of Wang Yuanya, the "ex-wife sister", so I believe she should give her this little face.
After doing all this, Li Jize was about to tame these captives, but unexpectedly, at this moment, the imperial edict arrived!
A eunuch who was in charge of announcing the imperial edict came and read the imperial edict to Li Jize. Then he saw that Li Jize neither burned incense nor took a bath, let alone knelt down.
How bold!
The eunuch was so stunned by this scene that he just stood there stupidly, not moving a muscle.
Li Jize saw this and asked directly, "Why? Don't you have an imperial decree to announce? Read it! If you don't, I will leave!"
The eunuchs were really helpless. When you are under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. In the past, when the emperor ordered you to kneel, it was because order was still in order and the emperor was still the master of the country.
but now……
Isn’t there a joke?
When you have eight thousand soldiers and horses, the emperor asks you to hand over your military power. You do so honestly, and after you hand it over, you have to say, "My soldiers were originally trained for Your Majesty."
When you have 80,000 soldiers, the emperor asks you to hand over your military power, but you make all kinds of excuses and prevarications.
But when you have 800,000 soldiers and horses, the emperor asks you to hand over the military power?
"What? You want me to hand over my military power? I see the Queen Mother still has her charm. How about you acknowledge me as your father-in-law?"
Li Jize is like this now. He has soldiers, territories, and weapons. The most important thing is...
He even has his own tax system!
When you are no longer short of money and food, and have weapons and men in your hands, what else can the court do to restrain Li Jize?
If a barbarian tribe had not come in, Li Jize would have challenged the empress to a fight!
Because of this, Li Jize now has the confidence to stand and receive the imperial edict. Are you going to announce the edict? If you don't, I will leave?
The eunuch had no choice but to open the imperial edict and announce that the empress was very dissatisfied with Li Jize! Why did he make money against his conscience and supply weapons to Zuo Santong and the rebels?
Ah this...
When this decree was read out, everyone present was stunned and looked at the King of Qin with guilt.
It wasn't that she was worried that the King of Qin would be exposed for selling weapons to the rebels, but that she was worried that the King of Qin would be furious, have the eunuch executed, and then turn against the Empress.
What's your level?
What is your current situation? Don’t you have any idea of your rank?
The King of Qin was standing there to receive the order, and you still dared to issue an order openly to reprimand him. Are you really not afraid of death?
Fortunately, Li Jize was only stunned for a moment, then he laughed, "I sell firearms to Zuo Santong?"
Speaking of which...
Li Jize turned his head and looked at the staff and managers of the Qin Palace with a cold gaze. "I also want to see who is so audacious as to sell firearms without going through the Qin Palace."
This frightened Chen Yingyuan so much that he quickly shook his head and assured him solemnly, "Your Highness, there is absolutely no such thing in the Qin Palace. I guarantee it with my life!"
Not to mention that Qingzhou was so large that it couldn't be managed by a province, the Qin army had long been corrupt. Secondly, the system established by the King of Qin, in addition to the tax independence of the tax army, also had a special "prosecution system."
Anti-Corruption Office!
The emergence of this new department is similar to a secret service agency, but they are only responsible to the King of Qin, equivalent to the "Jinyiwei", but they monitor corruption in various departments.
The difference between Li Jize and the Empress is that he started from scratch and has the final say within his own internal team. If I say we need to add a department, there must be one.
If she were the empress, no matter what she wanted to do, once it involved the interests of the civil and military officials, do you think she could still push it forward?
Li Jize nodded. He also believed that his routine, copied from later generations, would definitely not have any loopholes. After thinking for a moment, he looked at the young eunuch and replied, "Did you hear that? No one here dares to sell arms to Zuo Santong!"
The eunuch didn't care. He stared at the men in front of him and said calmly, "But in this conflict, Zuo Santong's troops did have firearms, which caused great trouble to our Qi army."
Chen Yingyuan frowned, and after thinking for a moment, he asked, "Is firearms difficult to make, but not easy either? But they're not impossible to make. Is it possible that the Zuo Santong army made them themselves?"
"No! Judging from the weapons we seized, those firearms are all the same size."
As soon as the last sentence was spoken, everyone present immediately realized that if the model and size of the weapons were the same, then there was only one possibility!
Indeed, the weapons were produced in Qingzhou!
How shrewd was Li Jize? This incident immediately led him to a possibility: "Guazi used cars, there are no middlemen who make a profit from the price difference!"
Damn it, is someone making a profit from the price difference?
Currently, Li Jize only has a few clients, including Korea! They haven't started yet, and they can't do business so far away.
Wang Yuanya! They're strong and powerful now, and the demand for firearms is huge, okay? Besides, Li Jize was just a support in the early stages, and he didn't charge them any fees.
The only possibility is Li Zhenbei! He can get firearms from Li Jize at a high price, tighten his belt, and let his people starve in exchange for food.
If this goes on, he will definitely not be able to bear it and will definitely want to recover his health.
Will it be... ?
It was this old bastard who changed hands and sold the firearms directly to Zuo Santong?
Thinking of this, Li Jize felt that it was more and more possible.
"Young eunuch, I think I know where Zuo Santong's firearms came from. Please go back and tell His Majesty that we will suspend the sale of firearms to the rebels."
