Chapter Summary
You mentioned the fine, then we'll just waive it and follow the naval base's laws." All the items you smuggled are top-tier items. If these people were talking about money, she could probably cover up all these things and just spend more money. It's fine to make some money from this matter, but if you keep making a fuss about it, things will get complicated." Based on the current situation, the maximum fine for each person is 200,000 yuan, which I can pay.
"Since you want to talk to us about the rules, then we'll have a proper discussion about the rules with you. You mentioned the fine, then we'll just waive it and follow the naval base's laws."
All the items you smuggled are top-tier items. I don't need to explain their importance, do I? They can be refined into various kinds of special steels, which are among the most important resources for all of humanity.
According to government regulations, since you have already done such a thing, you must pay a higher price. In terms of fines, we will fine you seven times the value of your goods. If we look at the relevant articles, it is seven to fifteen times. We can easily get it to be fifteen times. Will you be able to afford to pay that?
If you can't pay, then there's not much to say about this, and you'll even go to jail. If you're in prison, do you think you'll still be able to speak so eloquently?
Those people in prison will fawn over us because we can bring them good things. And because of that, you might regret it now. I can tell you for sure, it's too late to regret it now.
You can sue us for damaging your personal property. At most, we'll compensate you for the damages. If the higher-ups are lenient, we might not even have to pay compensation. But all your culpability is real.
"If we're really determined to make things difficult for you, what do you think you can do to us? You think you can fight us, you little brat? What's wrong with you?"
These guys spoke with complete arrogance, and what they said was true. If they sent Wang Tingting to jail, given her current situation, she would definitely be sentenced to more than seven years in prison, and the amount of compensation would be considerable.
The naval base originally enacted this law to prevent anyone from exploiting loopholes. However, things are not always as you might think. The naval base wanted large merchants to avoid loopholes, but it made an exception for small merchants.
After all, it's not easy for them to survive, and they greatly boost the economies of the two cities, especially the city that sells ore. Many people can find work along this route, and it is precisely because of this that the government turns a blind eye to their affairs.
So when these things happened, not many people insisted that they follow the laws and regulations. At most, everyone would make some money, which would be a good thing for everyone in the future. But today, Wang Tingting's actions have angered them, and they are preparing to handle things officially. If they really want to handle things officially...
The chances of Wang Tingting going in are over 60%, so she is really scared. If these people were talking about money, she could probably cover up all these things and just spend more money. But now these people are not talking about money anymore.
They felt there was no need to talk about money, so they went straight to the rules. These rules were not to be trifled with; if things really escalated, it wouldn't benefit anyone, especially Wang Tingting.
Just like they said, it's just a matter of losing one of your personal belongings. They'll be willing to die with you. Are you going to eat them all?
Moreover, they are staff members of the garrison headquarters, and this is how officials protect each other. If you want to go against them on legal grounds, you will probably suffer a great loss. Wang Tingting looked at Liu Ning helplessly at this moment, originally hoping to help Liu Ning.
Wang Tingting was heartbroken that things had turned out this way. She didn't know how to resolve the matter with Liu Ning, especially since Liu Ning had been dragged into it. Wang Chun felt a deep sense of guilt.
People were just traveling in a neighboring city when they were kind enough to sell me a share of their travel allowance, and now they've been brought here. If Wang Tingting is used as a legal example to be prosecuted, Liu Ning will likely be implicated as well.
Unless Liu Ning possesses immense power, or his superiors grant him a chance to explain, or his family can pull strings for him—which is simply impossible—it's highly unlikely.
In Wang Tingting's view, Liu Ning was just a rich man, but not a truly wealthy one. For someone like him to want to get into the Datong Garrison was practically impossible.
The naval base staff didn't think they would be at a disadvantage. Recently, many people had been disobedient, especially the merchants, who felt that the naval base staff couldn't do anything to them.
Since that's the case, they might as well lose one or two merchants and send someone like Wang Tingcheng to jail. For them, although there will be some losses in the short term, it won't matter in the long run, because everyone understands the current situation.
"Let me say something. What you people are doing has indeed gone too far. It's fine to make some money from this matter, but if you keep making a fuss about it, things will get complicated."
Based on the current situation, the maximum fine for each person is 200,000 yuan, which I can pay. However, you'd better not escalate the situation. This is acceptable to us, but if you escalate the situation, things will get out of control.
We're not exactly well-off, and you might not know who I am, but the fact that I'm speaking to you like this is already a huge favor to you.
Liu Ning, standing to the side, couldn't stand it any longer. When Liu Ning spoke to these people like that, he was already being very kind, but unfortunately, these people didn't understand at all. They thought Liu Ning was really going too far. Who did he think he was, talking to them in such a tone? Did he really think he was someone important?
How could anyone be a big shot in a place like this? And why would we listen to someone like you? So these people didn't even bother to look at him; they just wanted to kick Liu Ning out. There are too many pretentious people like this, but if you want to show off in this place, you can't.
