Chapter 87 Return to the Capital

The blacksmith's expression of the salt smith was suddenly ugly. One salt smith was about to go and see who was coming, while the other salt smith went behind to lead a horse and shout for someone.

Is it so unlucky today that the people who want to kill themselves come one after another? Li Meng was extremely angry and even had the idea of ​​fighting with the people outside no matter what.

At this time, Yan Ding, who went to check the situation, hurriedly ran back, his face full of ecstasy, and he shouted loudly:

"Sir, sir, we are from the state city."

Li Meng was relieved when he heard this. Now the manor is only 30 people. If there are a group of enemies coming and there are enough people, I really don’t know how to deal with it.

There were 120 salt genitals in the city. This time, the deputy of the salt genitals team in charge explained to Li Meng that it was Tang Er who was helpless and went to the inspection house to tell him about the Jinyiwei in the city. Although Tang Er had been opened, Yan Ding still thought he was his own person. After asking about the matter, he was very anxious.

But the key to the problem is that there are no horses in the city, and the speed of the infantry is limited after all, so I can still hurry up or not.

Looking at the salt dicks running out of breath, Li Meng felt very happy. He raised his hand and pointed at Tang Er who was standing in the back row and said:

"You have been opened, why are you still coming with the Yanding Brigade!"

After saying this, Tang Er's face turned pale. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he heard Li Meng continue to say:

"You should be fined. You won't let you do the work in the gambling house. Come to this Li Family Manor and make up for all the training you have been delayed during this period."

Tang Er's increasingly gray face suddenly became brighter. Yan Ding around him felt unbearable, but at this time they burst into laughter. They patted Tang Er's shoulders and teased him. Tang Er stood there and smiled foolishly. It was not until the deputy of the Yan Ding team came over and pushed him. Then he realized that he ran out of the queue and kowtowed to Li Meng in tears, unable to say a word.

Li Meng laughed loudly and felt very happy for a moment.

When it was dark, a reporter sent by Wu Wensong, a Tongzhi of Jiaozhou, came...

There were many people living around the Lijia Manor in Fengmeng Town. In this afternoon, there were quite a few people who heard the movement in the manor, screaming and killing. Some people also saw a group of caravans wearing green robes entering the manor, but these people never came out again. The horses placed at the door were also led by the salted men.

Although there are many things, everyone tacitly talked about it. Some people were surprised that those wearing blue clothes seemed to see the former Pingdu salt dealer Qiu Dahai inside that day, but at most they just chat before going to bed, and they didn't dare to mention it outside.

By October, the people everywhere were already withered and yellow, and the people in Fengmeng Town forgot about this. During this period, the vendors in Fengmeng Town were very happy because the salt team stationed in Fengmeng Town reached 300, and it is said that there are still 300 people coming here in a while.

These 600 people will stay here in the future and will not be rotated. Staying is a good thing for vendors. Li Meng's salt resident is a person who abides by the law and has strict military discipline. The monthly salary is paid in full. There must be a lot of these salary that can be spent on the market. Isn't this a good thing that everyone benefits?

On the fifth day of the October 10th, farmers in the farmers near Lijia Manor encountered a very strange thing. Three or four people from Lingshan Salt Field said they came to Fengmeng Town to purchase goods, but they were wandering around these farmers and asking who had seen anyone who had seen someone on the afternoon of the end of September and whether something had happened.

The farmers naturally didn't know anything. As soon as these people from Lingshan Salt Farm left, they immediately went to tell the salt cubes of Lijia Manor.

Guanyan’s salt farm has a salt class ambassador to manage the production of the salt farm. Two years ago, Ambassador Zhang of Lingshan was called Zhang Daguanren. He is powerful in the local area and in the garrison. Many salt dealers and salt owls have to be careful to please him. After a fool in Lingshan garrison suddenly became smart, his status plummeted.

The stove owners under his command were constantly poached, and Ambassador Zhang's influence was also limited to the salt field. The salt produced was purchased and sold in a unified manner, which means making hard money. The salt owls and salt dealers who were polite to him in the past also changed their previous pleasing and politeness and transferred this attentiveness to others.

Ambassador Zhang from the salt field also secretly tried the means, but it had no effect in the face of the rapid growth and growth of the other party.

After Li Meng placed 100 salt dice in the salt farm to guard, Ambassador Zhang quickly and honestly arranged for production, and his duties were abnormal.

At the end of September this year, Ambassador Zhang was ill for a few days, and then drove a concubine named Qiu back home. The rest were nothing unusual. If it were seen by the salt dicks stationed outside, during this period, Ambassador Zhang's home suddenly became more expensive and he actually sent people to Fengmeng Town and Jiaozhou City to buy things.

The weather is cold in October, and the weather is about to change. People in the entire salt farm are mobilized to pack up salt goods and prepare for the peak season near the end of the year.

Lingshan Salt Farm has long been hosted by the stove owner Li Meng, and Ambassador Zhang is just a decoration outside, but after all, it is an official sent by the court, and he also gets a regular amount of money from his income, which can make him have a good life. Whenever the salt Farm is busy, Ambassador Zhang always goes to the scene to check it out, which is also a good look.

Ambassador Zhang also left the door this day. After only a dozen steps, he saw someone waiting on the roadside. Seeing the person clearly, Ambassador Zhang trembled all over, his face suddenly turned pale, he forced a smile, took a few steps, and said hello with great sincerity:

"Isn't this Brother Chen Liu? Why did you have time to come to my broken place today? Come at home and have a good drink."

Chen Liuzi was no longer wearing a cloth clothes, but was wearing leather armor, and iron pieces were nailed to the vital parts. Chen Liuzi's face was cold and had no smile. He spoke to Ambassador Zhang:

"Mr. Li knows your affairs. The person you sent to Zhoucheng and Jinan to report the news was also detained."

While speaking, six salted dicks flashed in front and back, standing there, sandwiching Ambassador Zhang in the middle. Official Zhang was no longer as powerful as before, and could not even keep the smile he squeezed out, but said in a trembling voice:

"You are lawless, Zhang is also a court official..."

Chen Liuzi said coldly:

"We know you are a court official, so there is nothing to do. Let's go, there is Yantian ahead."

These salt pupils don't have to force themselves. They don't need to deal with a fat man who is pampered and has no need to face a great enemy. Ambassador Zhang was quiet for a while, his whole body trembled and said in a stern voice:

"You salt rods are thieves. If you want to make money, you won't let us make money. Is there any reason?"

Chen Liuzi's patience was surprisingly good, and he just said coldly:

"Is there anything else to say? After that, go to Yantian quickly!"

"Brother Six, I don't have much money left. I have to leave it to the wife and children of Jimo County. Brother Six, you are a lot of people, so I will send them all."

"My adults will not embezzle your little money, nor will they make things difficult for your family. Don't worry!"

"...Thank you, Lord Li and Brother Chen Liu... Then, let's go!"

In early October, Zhang, the salt course ambassador of Lingshan Salt Field, died in the salt field because the sea water was too cold.

The person who arranged for the Jiaozhou Tongzhi Wu Wensong to report the message to Li Meng naturally also returned the news. There was nothing unusual in the Li family manor, everything was as usual. More than fifty Jinyiwei men disappeared silently, which was really a creepy event. Wu Wensong was sweating all over when he heard the news and immediately arranged for his confidant family to come to Beijing to report the news.

The Silijian in the Forbidden City in the capital, the eunuchs who had been busy all day gathered in a side room, drank tea and had some snacks, and waited for a while for dinner.

These eunuchs are already the highest level of eunuchs, and they are naturally delicious food and utensils. The royal kitchen fully flatters them. However, those who have arrived at this position have no interest in these desires. Two people are still discussing the notes handed over by the cabinet during the day, and the five of them are closed their eyes and pretending to sleep.

On the contrary, Liu Fulai was there to sip tea and eat fine snacks. He was not as good as a young man. He had to eat something to replenish his food all day.

A little eunuch outside the house walked in quietly, saluted at the eunuchs of Bingbi, and then came to Liu Fulai's ear and whispered. The attention of the eunuchs of Bingbi around him was diverted. Everyone in this small space was a role with great power and responsibility, and was very concerned about each other's actions, for fear that the other party would do something with his back. Of course, if there were any plans, he would definitely not sit in front of him.

Liu Fulai obviously knew the mentality of his colleagues. He nodded at the little eunuch and said to the people around him:

"Relatives from Shandong gave me some local specialties. I'll bring them in and everyone will try them."

Liu Fulai is the most low-key role in Silijian on weekdays. Everyone has a good relationship with him. These people have tasted all kinds of delicacies. The so-called local specialties attract everyone's interest. Some people are wondering if it will be the gold, silver and treasures sent from below.
