After Zhang Ping'an received the strange news that Jinshan was found in Lin Dankhan's area, he was also puzzled. Even if he treated wealth as his life, he would not insult his IQ like this. Even if the Jinshan there could be excavated at will, Lin Dankhan had to be driven away. However, the Ponu Army would not use any more troops this year. After the Ming Dynasty's battles, the Ponu Army was basically sold out. If it weren't for the Ming Dynasty's court to come to rescue the 700,000 jin of sulfur, the Ponu Army would soon become an army dominated by cold weapons.

Zhang Ping'an, who had already decided, would not risk this dazzling news. In Zhang Ping'an's view, once the war with Lin Danhan in Mongolia started, Lin Danhan must be completely eliminated or severely injured Lin Danhan. Only in this way can the destruction army led by him focus on the decisive battle with the Jurchens. Ideals are beautiful, but reality is often skinny and cruel. When Zhang Ping'an wants to concentrate on dealing with one side, the other side has a jealous opportunity.

Zhang Ping'an, who was suffering from a headache, took his student Zhang Wuji out of the Shuai Mansion and headed for the north gate of Ponu City. They wanted to go to Zhang Ping'an's watermelon field to relax. Before leaving the city, Zhang Ping'an specially went to the prison in the North Gate to inspect. He wanted to visit Zhang Wuji to remove a ball of the Fan family meat ticket. Fan Chengyang, a Fan family in Shanxi, was cruel and ruthless, and actually abandoned his own flesh and blood, and was determined to go against him. Since Fan Chengyang made a move, Zhang Ping'an would compete with him for who is darker and whose hands are hotter!

The prison in Ponucheng is always so clean and tidy. Two connected rebirth-shaped prisons on the first floor and the second floor of the underground cover an area of ​​more than 500 acres. The three high walls on the east, south and west block the prison's desire to escape. The expanded prison treats the northern wall of Ponucheng as the north wall of the prison. In order to use the thick wall to prevent prisoners from escaping, the city walls of more than ten feet high can also be used to monitor the movements in the prison. The two rows of bungalows with different new and old buildings on the south are the torture rooms of the Detective Office and the Intelligence Department.

The focus of Zhang Dashuai, who had a gold medal on his waist, today's inspection was on the Intelligence Department's cell. He came outside the prison door where the Fan family's meat tickets were detained. He took a rough look and saw that the nine hostages could get out of bed and walk around. Their eyes were blazing green light showed viciousness in fear. They were pale and terrifying. This shows that these nine people could not see the sunshine for many years and their mental damage was repeatedly destroyed. Zhang Ping'an was very satisfied with this result. It seemed that Zhao Hucheng and Zhang Wuji took turns to fight, completely distorting their minds.

The murderous man Zhang Dashang now has a strange aura. More than 20 ferocious hunting dogs in the prison all hide in the corner fearfully after smelling his breath, shit and urine burst out and dare not bark. By the same token, prisoners who have been imprisoned for a long time are often as sensitive as dogs, and they can feel inexplicably threats at a long distance, and they are also curled up in the dark corner and trembling.

"I said Wuji, you have taken good care of these people, and I am very satisfied! Zhao Hucheng is coming back soon. You have to replenish them recently. If you don't have enough money, just ask me for it. Let these people bask in the sun appropriately. We must be grateful to us when they leave Posou City. Hey...hey...hey! I guess these people can bring tens of thousands of taels of gold to the Intelligence Department within three years. We are called spending small money to do big things!"

Zhang Wuji, who also learned how shameless Zhang was, was so excited that he expressed his feelings. He was very excited. He was very excited to personally complete this big deal that took several years.

"Sir, it's the most suitable thing for me to do this. Do you think...?"

After Zhang Ping'an finished his explanation, he walked out of the prison. He was very impatient when he heard Zhang Wuji's temptation: "You stay there! I have agreed to Zhao Hucheng for this matter long ago. He will definitely be better than you in doing this!"

They met another student of Zhang Ping'an at the prison gate. Zhou Xing's own experience was very similar to Zuo Erya. More than 20 grandchildren and old men in the family were killed by the Jurchens. At that time, he was twelve years old and hid in the woodshed to witness this tragic scene. At this point, his temperament changed drastically. He was also the earliest group of children rescued by Zhang Dashang from Duoyan. Originally, Zhou Xing learned to survey and map with Zhang Dashang. But he had not stayed in Hu Ming's army for a few days and strongly asked to go to the intelligence department. He was originally studying interrogation with Zhang Wuji, but when he arrived to torture the Jurchens, he could not suppress his desire to take revenge. The Jurchens he interrogated could not see the sun the next day.

Although Zhou Xing's way of being accused of being a rude man was recognized by Zhang Dashuai, Zhang Ping'an believed that Zhou Xing lacked the spirituality of Zhang Wuji, and blindly using torture was a taboo in collecting intelligence. Therefore, Zhou Xing did not become a master of all-round interrogation like Zhang Wuji. In Zhang Dashuai's eyes, Zhou Xing was at best a thug. However, Zhang Dashuai still admired his ruthlessness in treating the Jurchens, and he would usually call him if he had any good things.

"Sir! Can you let me peel the Jurchens?"

"I said Zhou Xing, you can't think about it when you encounter something. Who do you think of me? I must have a plan to do big things, even if it's a deep meaning behind it. It's good to have this heart, but be careful to do bad things with good intentions! If you have nothing to do, go with me to pick watermelons. On the way, I will teach you a good class!"

At the end of the summer of the fifth year of Tianqi in the Ming Dynasty, in the Nanjing City of Yingtian Prefecture, Nanzhili, it was rare to be quiet at the entrance of the Xuanwei envoy of the Ponucheng. In the study of the government office, Xu Yian was sitting at the desk with his shirtless hands, holding official documents in his right hand and a palm fan in his left hand. Zhang Dashuai led the Ponu army to wipe out the two rebels in Shaanxi in succession, gaining a large population, but also brought huge material pressure to Ponucheng.

Especially in the military, there was a huge gap in sulfur. The Ming Dynasty itself did not produce sulfur, so he spent all his efforts on this shortage military capital Xu Yian. Tonight, he invited Zheng Yiguan, a powerful man from the southeastern sea of ​​the Ming Dynasty, to buy sulfur military capital from him. Since this year, the Posou Army marched thousands of miles to wipe out the chief gang of Cao Gang, and bloodshed the leaders of the big and small Cao Gang to infiltrate and control the entire Cao Gang. At this point, the Ming Dynasty's north-south transportation was secretly in the hands of the Posou Army.

It was the Po Nu Army that controlled the canal transportation, and many north-south transporters had to act according to Xu Yian's expression. Xu Yian hid in the study today and read the secret letter of Zhang Dashui. After an hour of deciphering, Xu Yian felt his scalp tight when he saw the material list of Zhang Dashui. Now the production of the Ming Dynasty's official army was basically at a standstill because the Ming court wanted to meet the needs of Po Nu Bo. In the letter, Zhang Dashui asked Xu Yian to raise three million jin of sulfur and 500,000 stones of tea for the Po Nu Army. As for cotton, the more cloth was better.

Judging from the amount of sulfur required by Marshal Zhang, Marshal Zhang has to deal with at least two major wars. The silk sent to Ponu City recently was enough for the Ponu Army to support two wars. Marshal Zhang also wanted silk to indicate that he wanted to reserve. If the Ming Dynasty blocked the Ponu Army's material resources, he would not be overly nervous. What made Xu Yian interesting was that Marshal Zhang actually asked him to find a craftsman who could build ships and a craftsman who built sea ships. Xu Yian was a little confused. The area controlled by the Ponu Army had no sea port, so why did Marshal Zhang build sea ships?

However, Mr. Zhang has always had a lofty vision and was unpredictable to his work. He only had to do the job assigned by Mr. Zhang. Xu Yian could not ask if he had any extra questions. Among Mr. Zhang's materials, it was best to do tea. In the Xinyamen of Xuanwei Envoy, the capital was built a 100-acre caravan and stored nearly 400,000 stones of tea. This material can be completed this month. In order to cooperate with Xu Yian's chore in Nanzhili, Mr. Zhang also sent a caravan of 500 people to enter the Xinyamen of Xuanwei Envoy Envoy in Nanjing.

There are more than 100 chefs from the detective office in this caravan. It is said that ten of them were masters taught by Zhang Dashuai himself. Xu Yian agreed with Zhang Dashuai's plan to collect intelligence. The caravan also brought Zhang Dashuai's most profitable crystal mirrors, and the largest ones were three feet square. According to Zhang Dashuai's guess, these mirrors were enough to buy three million kilograms of sulfur. Zhang Dashuai was very smart when doing business. He asked Xu Yian to adopt the hunger sales method, first selling the two feet square mirrors and auctioning them, and then singing at the auction with famous prostitutes in Qinhuai River, which would definitely increase the price of the mirror.

In order to make a lot of money, Zhang Dashuai specially sent Zheng Tai, deputy commander of the Intelligence Department far away in the capital, to lead the "Demon" singing girl in the Posou City guided by Zhang Dashuai to help. Zhang Dashuai's reputation for making money in the Ming Dynasty was already a mess, and he could only respond to this instruction that confused Xu Yian.

That night, the "Huicu Lou" on the east side of the yamen of Ponucheng was in Chaotiangong Street, which was facing Chaotiangong Street, and the nobles and wealthy families in Nanjing walked into the restaurant and tasted the long-standing dishes created by Ponu Bo. The gossip news in Nanjing said that Ponu Bo has several major hobbies, beauties, gold, food, and murder. Everyone can understand the first three types. It is a man who likes these things, but if you kill, you can only enjoy them yourself.

Xu Yian, a striking figure in Southern Zhili, wore a green silk robe and a black gauze hat, and a golden paper fan in his hand. Zheng Yiguan, who was invited by him, was greeted by the distinguished guest Zheng Yiguan in front of the restaurant. Zheng Yiguan, a 25 or 26-year-old stout body, had a round face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a three-inch beard like a tough beard surrounded by his lips. Under the introduction of others, Zheng Yiguan saw a young man dressed in a noble man from afar, and immediately stepped forward and bowed, saying apologetically.

"Tong Xu is so polite, he is ashamed of being a judge!..."
