Chapter 231: Joining the Salt Gang

Because things were done properly, of course, Jia Ling had already left Yangzhou with 6,000 official salt and 1,000 smuggled salt from the black market, in order to save time and prevent accidents, Shi Bin took his subordinates out of Hanfu and went to Zhenjiang non-stop. Because the two discussed that they would get on the boat in Zhenjiang and return to Dingzhou by waterway.

It is easy to walk within fifty miles of the city, without any trouble, Xu Feng is very happy that these green forest men know the severity and have a good eye, and they know that they will not provoke Shi Bin, which saves him a lot of trouble. After all, no one has ever liked to fight and kill, and it is not comfortable to lick blood with a knife.

But Shi Bin was uneasy, in his opinion, how could such a big cornucopia in Yangzhou be coveted? Could it be that those bandits and bandits have been exterminated? Huwei, who was all taken by the imperial army, didn't dare to make a living here?

Then I thought about it, where could Song Ting's gang of waste soldiers who only knew how to eat, drink, prostitute and gamble still fight, it would be good if they themselves were not killed by the heroes of the green forest, how could they exterminate the bandits and bandits?

If things are abnormal, there must be demons, and there is only one explanation: the scattered bandits have twisted into a rope, and if they don't fish, they will catch the big ones, and they don't care about the small fish and shrimp.

Thinking of this, Shi Bin no longer dared to slow down half a step, and whipped the beloved jujube red horse under his crotch to a gallop, and the speed was comparable to six hundred miles of urgency.

Seeing Shi Bin suddenly act like this, of course Xu Feng, as a guard, couldn't ask, so he had to follow him with all his might. Shi Bin's nervous look made Xu Feng guess something, and he turned around and urged his subordinates to do their best to protect him.

Sure enough, when I arrived at a mountain pass seventy miles outside the city, I saw the salt team blocked there, but when I looked closely, I didn't see Jia Ling and a few of her guards.

This can make Shi Bin nervous, if it is a bandit with discipline, it is easy to say, just for money; If it is garbage without a bottom line, Jia Ling will be dangerous.

In a hurry, he hurried to the salt team to ask for an understanding. The answer made Shi Bin feel a little relieved: Jia Ling was 'invited' to go up the mountain by a group of people who called themselves the 'Salt Gang'.

Everyone knows that this so-called 'please' is still coercion in the final analysis, but it means that there is a bottom line, and it can be regarded as a good meeting in the future, so Shi Bin is also relieved.

After understanding clearly, Shi Bin took Xu Feng and other guards up the mountain, praying as he walked, 'Crazy girl, don't go crazy'.

When I arrived at the gate of the wall, as if I knew that Shi Bin would arrive, the gate had already been opened and there were two rows of 'militants' who were neat and tidy despite their clothes being patched.

When he saw Shi Bin, a pawn immediately came out of the door and led him to the salt gang council hall.

Looking up, this is decorated with tiger skin seats, eighteen weapons, armed guards, where is this gang? The whole is a bandit cottage, looking at the size of the hall, it is estimated that the bandits in this cottage will not be less than a thousand.

Still thinking about this, Jia Ling's voice and her footsteps immediately came to my ears. Fortunately, although she is the eldest lady of the official family, she has always been very bold, not so weak, and did not cry, but she was obviously very unhappy, and her eyes were full of anger. took a closer look at Jia Ling and found that she was not injured, which surprised Shi Bin very much. Jia Ling is also a little kung fu and courage, to be able to catch her up the mountain like this, that person does have some ability, Shi Bin immediately decided to be cautious.

"Xiaoling, have you ever told your true identity?" Although Shi Bin is not exactly trafficking in illicit salt, this is disgraceful after all, and everyone he doesn't want to get it is known, and the less people know, the better.

"Naturally not, I just said that you know Lord Shi Binshi, the governor of Dingzhou. Maybe that's why they didn't use their swords, but instead sent two guys with great martial arts skills to capture me up the mountain. But they don't seem to look like that

Vicious bandits, but an underworld that specifically targets salt merchants. ”

Mafia? Collecting protection money? Shi Bin understood a little after listening to Jia Ling's words.

"According to Xiaoling, these guys didn't do anything bad to you, they just wanted to get money from salt merchants?"

"It should be, anyway, from the mouths of their big and small leaders and minions, the most heard is the word salt." Jia Ling said with certainty.

The anger is not so big, but Shi Bin can't accept that his wife was coerced by this gang to go up the mountain, and he wants to pay protection money for his own Jinghu South Road transfer. In his opinion, this is a big joke in the world, only he wants others, where someone else robs him, this is definitely a shameful brand.

Not long after thinking about this, a thin and tall man came out of the inner hall, and sat on the tiger skin chair very steadily, which did not look like a bandit, but more like a showman.

"You are the owner of the Jingnan firm?" The man asked.

"Yes, the contemptible surname is Deng."

"Boss Deng, it's your first time doing this salt business, right?" The man asked with an affirmative smile.

"This boss is so powerful, it's indeed the first time I've done this business."

"Then don't blame the boss, no wonder you and your wife don't know to pay the necessary fees. Before, Miao sent his subordinates to ask his wife to go up the mountain, and if there was anything wrong, he also asked Boss Deng to forgive his sins. ”

Jia Ling didn't have an accident, Shi Bin was quite calm, but Xu Feng couldn't calm down, the main mother was caught and slapped the guard, although it was not directly snatched from him, but it was also from his subordinates. So he roared angrily: "Just a word of 'forgiveness' is over? It seems that it is going to cost protection money, but it is really unbelievable! ”

This time, Shi Bin didn't stop him, he also had a lot of fire, but he didn't want to send it out for the time being, so he just borrowed Xu Feng to test it.

Unexpectedly, the man surnamed Miao on the main seat was not angry at all, but said with a smile on his face: "Boss Deng, your subordinates are very bloody and loyal, but they seem to be a little less stable." Since Miao dared to set up a cottage here to collect the protection fees of the salt merchants, how could he not rely on it? ”

This is a full truth, this place is not very far from Lin'an, there must be a lot of dignitaries and dignitaries who come and go, if you don't rely on setting up a cottage here is looking for death.

As soon as the words fell, Xu Feng was given there, and he didn't say a word for a while.

"Master Miao, can you waive this fee for the sake of Lord Shi's face? After all, it is not easy for anyone to live in troubled times today. What's more, this is the first time I have done business, and I don't make much money, and the Yangzhou government has already paid a lot of filial piety. Shi Bin decided to take a step back and pretend to be pitiful.

"No way, even if I am willing, my boss will not be willing, Lord Shi Binshi, I still dare to offend, but the one behind me will not dare to borrow ten dares from me." The more the Miao master talked, the more excited he became, and in the end he even pretended to be pitiful.

"Do you really want to give it?"

"No way, I'm sorry. Please forgive me for being weak. ”

This made Shi Bin in a dilemma, if he didn't show his identity, the money would be gone, but if he wasn't afraid of the Miao master who showed his identity, he would be embarrassed at that time. But his wife was robbed up the mountain, and he had to pay protection money, which really made him unable to swallow it. Fighting? However, with more than 100 people, all of them are cold weapons, and it is estimated that it will be difficult to win. Even if you win, the goods will be destroyed, and this trip will be in vain.

When he was thinking wildly, a familiar voice came from behind him, and he looked at the voice - Zhang Shijie.

Looking at Zhang Shijie, who hurriedly rushed into the hall, Shi Bin smiled very unexpectedly but also very kindly. Although there was not much communication, it was known from later generations that this was a heroic figure with national integrity.

Before the Miao master could react, Zhang Shijie went up and pulled him down brutally, and shouted angrily: "Why are you even Shida."

People and his wife dare to detain it? Is it long? ”

The Miao family looked at Zhang Shijie very aggrievedly, and explained with a bitter face: "Commander Zhang, brother, I don't know this is Lord Shi." At first, Lord Shi only said that he knew Lord Shi, and claimed to be the shopkeeper of Jingnan Firm. ”

Such an explanation made Zhang Shijie understand that he was wrong to blame Miao in charge, but he was still angry and anxious in his heart. Although the person in front of him is not arrogant and unreasonable, he has also killed countless people, this time Mrs. Masamuro was arrested and went up the mountain, where can she be angry?

"Lord Shi, this cottage was actually built by my lord and a few brothers·····

I couldn't help but sigh that Lu Wende had a way to make money, and he even got a 'salt gang' out, and he and a few brothers sat behind it to collect money.

According to Shi Bin's temperament, he didn't want to make a big deal about it, not to mention that Lu Wende was involved, but he couldn't save face, so he just kept standing there frowning and didn't say a word, and from time to time he stared at the Miao master and the two martial arts masters who captured Jia Ling up the mountain.

Since Miao Dangjia is commensurate with Zhang Shijie's brothers, he naturally can't move, so he will take those two strong martial arts pawns.

"Brother Zhang, since it was done by Lord Lu, then I won't pursue the offense of the Miao family, what do you think about other things?"

"Thank you Lord Shi for being tolerant and willing to let Miao Dangjia go, those two minions who offended your wife still can't let go, and the lower officials will take the lead and blame them for twenty, what do you think? Please rest assured that you will play seriously! Zhang Shijie said.

Shi Bin nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, the Miao family said as if he had been amnestied: "Miao Wei thank you for your forgiveness, thank you!" ”

In order to prevent Shi Bin from repeating, Zhang Shijie immediately blasted Miao Wei out of the hall, ordered someone to beat the two of them into a bloody blur, and came to examine Shi Bin's injuries.

is also a dignified transfer envoy, and he didn't really hurt Jia Ling, plus with Lu Wende's face, Shi Bin naturally doesn't care anymore. Instead, he talked to Zhang Shijie about the salt gang.

Originally, Zhang Shijie was a little hesitant, but when he learned that Shi Bin was also going to sell salt, he let it go. introduced, this so-called salt gang is actually composed of Zheng Qingzhi's son and several high-ranking officials' children, but it is headed by Zheng Qingzhi's son, so Na Miao is not afraid of Shi Bin's friends.

But Lu Wende is stationed here, so these second-generation officials also have to befriend him, so naturally he will be a benefit, and he will become a partner.

After knowing this, Shi Bin immediately asked: "It seems that you Lord Lu are really fat, no wonder you spent money to buy my firearms without blinking your eyes." ”

Zhang Shijie laughed embarrassedly when he said this, "Where is Lord Shi, you are the big man, my family just dreams of these good firearms, but they can't be made." ”

"Okay, I won't gossip if I have something to do. This time, I thank Brother Zhang for avoiding the misunderstanding, but what to do in the future? I don't want to be invited up the mountain every time. ”

Although these words are polite, they are actually very ugly, of course Zhang Shijie understands the meaning, "Lord Shi, don't worry, Brother Miao Wei already knows you, and he will definitely not dare to do it again." ”

"Miao Wei naturally doesn't dare, but what if it's not Miao Wei but Zhou Wei and Xie Wei who will be in charge next time?"

Understanding what Shi Bin was worried about, Zhang Shijie immediately ordered someone to bring a black iron token, on which was engraved with a salt character. Shi Bin understood that this was a token, and it was estimated that he would save a lot of trouble in the future.

"Lord Shi, after that, as long as you bring this token to sell salt, even if you join the salt gang, for the time being, you can't get as much as Lord Lu, you can only ensure that you are not disturbed and charged." Zhang Shijie smiled a little embarrassedly.

Shi Bin immediately said that it was enough, and without saying more, he took Jia Ling and a few people to the salt gang cottage immediately accompanied by Zhang Shijie. (https:)
