After Liu Pei grasped the power of the Thousand Households, he quickly saw that the names of more than 1,000 of his family members were written into the list of soldiers of the Thousand Households, and from then on, more than 1,000 people were nominally soldiers of the imperial court. However, there are not so many people under him at the moment, because most of them are busy entering Yanzhou and grabbing the salt road. Prepare for war with you, the salt merchants of Jianghuai. Because Liu Pei got the news, Xu Hongru was defeated.

After the main force of the rebel army was defeated, some of the soldiers moved to Juye and Yuncheng, and were surrounded by the Ming army in the area of Wu'an, Yuncheng, and the righteous army fought bloodily and refused to surrender, and finally, tens of thousands of volunteer soldiers were surrounded and annihilated. At this point, the Wenxiang Sect uprising led by Xu Hongru came to an end.

And not only the common people are short of salt, but even the army mobilized by the imperial court is also short of salt. So they were welcomed by the local salt merchants. They received the salt at a price three tiers above the normal price. Wang Chuanhao, who was excited, immediately sent someone to rush back to transport the goods again. Others liaised with salt merchants here to build a salt road.

When the Jianghuai salt merchants entered Yanzhou with salt goods, they were surprised to find that there was already enough salt for sale in the market. They were blown away by the discovery. If the market is lost, it will be difficult to get it back.

At the same time, it is confirmed that the force behind this group of salt lords is an underworld organization called the Bloody Hand Gang. this

The Jianghuai salt merchants received the news and scoffed! In their opinion, the Shandong market is theirs, it is occupied by the people of the Bloody Hand Gang, and they are also qualified to take it back! Moreover, the Jianghuai salt merchants did not think that a gang could be very powerful. Because they themselves have a large number of thugs, and they also have strong government connections.

But they were immediately warned. A young man found the inn where several Jianghuai salt merchants lived, and delivered a letter from the Bloody Hand Gang. The tone of the letter was extremely tough, saying that we had already occupied the market in Shandong, and all the salt merchants in Jianghuai should not come again. If you want to continue to encroach on Shandong's market, it means going to war.

But before their men were in place, they suffered a series of blows. The salt boat on the canal capsized inexplicably. The big ship was not easy to overturn, but the crew of the ship was also tied up, and all the salt cargo was thrown into the river. The transit warehouse under construction was set on fire. The salt packets in the temporary warehouse have been poured with a lot of urine and water, and they are completely wasted!

Several people immediately prepared a generous gift and gave it to Zhao Yan, the governor of Shandong. At this time, Zhao Yan, the governor of Shandong, was busy dealing with the mess after the Wenxiang Sect, how could he have the kung fu to help a group of salt merchants! However, for the sake of the introducer, he sent someone to inquire about the situation of the Bloody Hand Gang. If you don't feel embarrassed, you can just wipe it out together.

Jiaozhou, Jimo two counties. The gang that walked outside never called the Bloody Hand Gang. And Qi Qitao and they only use the name of the Bloody Hand Gang in the fight with the salt merchants, so people outside the circle don't know what kind of gang the Bloody Hand Gang is! No one even knows where the Bloody Hand Gang is. Some people have never even heard of the name Bloody Hand.

But things soon changed significantly. The reason why Qi Qitao did not kill the Jianghuai salt merchants was not because they were weak, but because Liu Pei specially confessed. The salt merchants in the Jianghuai region had deep roots and strong power, and even the imperial court had their spokesmen. Therefore, Liu Pei was unwilling to provoke such a strong enemy too early, so he told Qi Qitao not to kill them.

And you're even more unkind to the salt barons! Whoever catches the salt lord to transport Huai salt, they will snatch the salt and kill the people! But fortunately, Qi Qitao and they still have measure, and they only kill the salt lord and their thugs. The coachman and porter in the convoy just beat them up and let them go.

As for the murder cases reported by those porters and coachmen, they are only circulated in private. Everyone knew that this was caused by the internal strife of the salt lords, so no one talked much. In everyone's impression, these salt barons are damned. As for who died, they didn't care.

In the past, although they were only beaten, they did not lose their lives. But God knows if the next time he gets caught, will those red-eyed killers kill themselves with a knife? Therefore these men have a lot of money in their hands, but they cannot hire anyone.
