Seeing that the two of them confessed and were lenient, Qin Ming smiled and said, "You two, honestly explain the corruption." ”

"My lord, the two of us have never been corrupt Suddenly, the county magistrate of the county is full of promises, everything is decided by the former county magistrate, so he is the big corrupt leader, we are just gagged with a little money."

"Yes, my lord, over the years, the amount of silver I got is less than a few hundred taels, and the lower officials are willing to confiscate all of them."

Qin Ming nodded: "Okay, in that case, this official will give you two a chance, from now on, you two will fully cooperate with this official to destroy the Xie family's salt gang." ”

"What? My lord, this ...... How hard it is......"

Qin Ming smiled: "It's not difficult, you two can find a way, just save more official salt for me, you don't have to worry about other things." ”

The two looked at each other and immediately nodded.

With the strong support of these subordinates, the official salt of the Yamen of Qingyun County was purchased in large quantities, and it was circulated in the southern market at a low price.

Lai Yuejin and Bai Pao were sold at low prices in the central and western parts of the country with these official salts.

As a result, in a few days, the illegal salt in these areas has been dealt a major blow.

In the west, the helmsman of the Liu family originally suspected that the helmsman of the Xie family in the south was doing things, and the last time he unintentionally inserted the willow in the misunderstanding, the helmsman of the Liu family was still lingering, and a large number of low-priced salt appeared in his territory in the past few days, and now he completely doubted the Xie family, so he counted the new hatred and old hatred together, and took advantage of the injury to heal, so he brought hundreds of people to kill him.

The chief helmsman of the Xie family was about to deal with Qin Ming, but he was caught off guard by the Liu family, so a battle broke out between the two sides, and you went back and forth.

The Li family salt gang in the central part of the country couldn't stand it, and the private salt business in the central part couldn't be done because of the emergence of low-cost salt, he saw the Xie family and the Liu family fighting, and felt that the problem was on these two families, so he also sent people to do it with these two families.

So, the three salt gangs just started fighting each other, doubting each other and fighting each other.

It was not lively for a while, but Qin Ming became a watcher.

The helmsman of the Xie family has always explained that the low-cost salt is made by the county order of Qingyuncheng, but everyone doesn't believe it, just one county order can still stir up the three major regions, so that the three regions have low-cost salt?

Of course, Qin Ming didn't just watch the excitement, he got more and more official salt, and the private salt on the market was almost gone, and everyone bought official salt, because the price was low.

A group of smuggler salt dealers have lost their business for a week and half a month, good guys, the three major salt gangs are fighting all day and night, and this business can't go on.

As a result, the smugglers began to change their careers, and invisibly, the three major salt gang forces began to disintegrate.

You said that your salt gang doesn't sell salt to make money, and spends money to fight every day, everyone is a salt dealer, just trying to make money, and it's not really a gangster, so who is going to do it with you?

In this way, after a few more days, there were less than 100 smuggler salt dealers that the Xie Family Salt Gang could contact...... Remove the hundreds of dead and wounded, and the rest will not follow the Xie family.

The Liu family in the west is no better, and so is the Li family in the middle.

I haven't bought salt for a long time, I have to feed so many people, I still need medical expenses to fight every day, and after more than half a month, the finances of each family have begun to worry, and there is no money.

It can be said that by this time, the three major salt gangs have basically been abolished.

They can't make money, they don't have appeal, no one follows them anymore, and they can't sell their salt...... Isn't this a waste?

In the yamen, everything was under Qin Ming's control, and after he received the news, he laughed and said:

"This time I really relied on the war of attrition to consume these three major salt gangs, and now the result is perfect."

Below, the county man asked: "Then my lord, what should we do next?" ”

"Take the servants, go to the Xie family, and take people on all kinds of charges that can be confirmed for them, and now the Xie family's salt gang is not to worry about!"

After Qin Ming finished speaking, the county immediately nodded and turned to leave.

As a result, on the same day, with the full force of the Yamen, all the remaining forces of the Xie Jiayan Gang were hit in place.

As for the central part, Qin Ming also gave Lai Yuejin an order that if necessary, he could use the official identity given to him by Qin Ming to exterminate the remnants of the Salt Gang, and the same was true for the white robe.

The finishing work was not too difficult, and within a few days, Bai Pao and Lai Yuejin both came back to their lives.

At this point, the salt gangs in various places have basically been wiped out, and a large number of smugglers and smugglers who threaten the interests of the country and the people have been cleaned up.

Next, what Qin Ming had to do was to return to the imperial capital and order the household department to focus on the implementation of the official salt output value in the coastal areas, and to bring down the price of salt, so that there would be no chance for private salt.

So, Qin Ming didn't stay long, and after a day of rest, he returned to the imperial capital with Lai Yuejin and Bai Pao.

Two days later, in the imperial capital, Qin Ming walked on the street with a hat.

There's no way, the people in the Imperial Capital City basically know him, so he has to disguise it.

In this way, all the way to the palace, after returning to the palace, Qin Ming changed into a dragon robe and met the little princess in the Qingxin Palace.

In the more than a month that he was away, he could exhaust the little princess, and he had to make decisions every day to deal with government affairs.

Seeing Qin Ming coming back, the little princess was overjoyed and hurriedly asked Qin Ming what he had done these days.

Qin Ming smiled and said something about it, and then the little princess gave up.

At the same time, Gonggong Liu came in and said to Qin Ming: "Your Majesty, the Luocheng County Commander sent four young girls, saying that they were arranged by Your Majesty......"

Qin Ming hurriedly said: "Father-in-law Liu, arrange to go to the Qingxin Palace, and be responsible for serving me and Yan'er!" ”

After Gonggong Liu left, not long after, the four girls came to the Qingxin Palace, they looked a little scared, they didn't understand what was going on, they knelt down when they entered the Qingxin Palace, they didn't dare to raise their heads, and they didn't understand why they were sent to the palace.

Qin Ming sat on the chair, looked at the four women, and said with a smile: "You don't have to be afraid, raise your head and see who I am!" ”

Where can the four girls not be afraid?

It's just that when I heard this voice, I felt familiar, so I looked up cautiously, and the four of them were stunned.

"Qin ...... Qin Gongzi? Is that you? Are you His Majesty the Emperor? ”

"Gongzi Qin is actually His Majesty the Emperor......"

The four girls were shocked and excited, Qin Ming smiled and said, "In the future, you will serve me here." ”

"Yes......"

The four girls were very happy.

Seeing that Qin Ming's matter had been dealt with, the little princess said:

"Brother Qin Ming, during the time you are away, our bomb is gone. The reserves, which have reached 100,000 units, are enough for cannon barrels and bombardiers. ”

Qin Ming was stunned for a moment and said, "Girl, what do you mean by saying this?" ”

The little princess smiled: "Shouldn't we be angry last time?" ”

"Gas?" Qin Ming took a deep breath, his eyes became hot, and said:

"Yes, the five countries attacked Chu, and now the white country is already the territory of the Chu country, and the other four countries should also pay the price!"
