Or perhaps the problem wasn't with the ship itself.
The problem lies with the people involved.
The ship is indeed an official vessel from every angle; the flag is correct, the workers are correct, but there is one thing that is wrong.
The quantity of iron ore is strictly managed in every country. The quantity must be repeatedly checked at every stage of the handover before it can be recorded and the responsibility assigned to the person.
Just now at the mine, there were people recording, weighing, and checking the weights of these mine carts.
However, when the ore was shipped onto the ship, no one weighed or checked it.
Normally, the person in charge of mining and the person in charge of transportation are two different groups of people. The ore that is mined and transported out needs to be weighed, so why doesn't the ore that is sent onto the ship need to be weighed?
If something goes wrong, whose responsibility will it be?
Su Ruojin didn't believe any river transport official would dare to take full responsibility for this.
But in this situation, there is only one possibility.
The ship is fake, and everyone's is fake. Since it's fake, they're naturally afraid of being discovered, so they wouldn't dare to leisurely weigh themselves on the shore. It's better to get them on the ship as soon as possible, so there's no need to weigh them repeatedly.
Moreover, the buyer has extreme trust in the seller, or the seller simply doesn't dare to play tricks on the buyer.
"Liu Jing, have someone sneak onto the ship and follow it to see where it's headed."
"yes."
Liu Jing waved his hand, and his two subordinates left.
Before long, the two miners were walking along when they suddenly saw something gleaming silver near the edge of the woods not far away, like some loose silver coins. The two men understood each other without saying a word, and excused themselves to relieve themselves, leaving the group.
Upon reaching the edge of the woods, they indeed found some loose silver. Excitedly, the two picked it up, but then everything went black, and they collapsed to the ground, being dragged into the woods.
Two more porters emerged from the woods, heads bowed, and joined the ore-carrying team.
Once the cargo was loaded, the ship set sail, heading in the direction of the capital of the Great Chu.
Watching the boat gradually sail away, Su Ruojin waved, and the group left Qinghe.
Su Wenzhou didn't go back to the inn with them, but went back to the small courtyard where he was temporarily hiding.
Now that we've found Third Brother, there's no need to stay at Yunlai Inn any longer. Su Ruojin told An Yi to find a larger courtyard tomorrow.
After all the chaos was over, it was already past midnight. Su Ruojin patted her slightly hardened belly and said, "My son, just bear with it a little longer. Once everything is settled, your mother won't have to take you around anymore."
While Su Ruojin was investigating the iron mine, Tong Mingshan listened to Huang Tongpan's report and remained silent for a long time.
"My lord, what should we do? Just who is this Zhao Ruojin? How does she know about the Soul-Dazzling Pill and even detect it during an autopsy?" Magistrate Huang was frantic.
If Zhao Ruojin conducted the autopsy privately, he could have easily destroyed the body and then killed Zhao Ruojin to silence her.
However, she openly examined the body in front of many Yulin residents, so the news must have spread throughout Yulin City by now. Even if Zhao Ruojin were killed now, it would be of no use.
"What's there to be afraid of? It's just a Soul-Dazzling Pill. Are we the only ones in the world who can afford to buy it? I heard that the Zhang family has always been at odds with the Xu family, hasn't it?"
As soon as Tong Mingshan spoke, Magistrate Huang understood and quickly gave him a thumbs up, "Brilliant, Your Excellency is truly brilliant!"
"The Xu family is nothing to fear, but this Zhao Ruojin cannot be allowed to live!" Tong Mingshan may love beautiful women, but he values his life even more.
He was very clear about how to choose between beauty and fate.
Regardless of Zhao Ruojin's background, she deserves to die for interfering in the Xu family's affairs.
