Seeing that people were coming, Yao Renji hurriedly took people over to greet him, which was naturally polite.

Wang Zhong looked at this scene, quietly walked to Xing Shangzhi's side, and said: "After entering the city later, don't worry about them, you take the people of Jinyi Wei to follow me to arrest people, and our family is estimated to have a fight." ”

Xing Shangzhi immediately smiled: "Okay! Let's go together. ”

"Go to the warehouse first, take the warehouse, let's go straight to the Zhou family, this time the credit is ours." Wang Zhong also had a smile on his face: "Did you see that person, that's it, that Humpty Dumpty." ”

"He is Zhou Feng, the head of the Zhou family, wait a minute, the governor of Cangzhou will definitely arrange a banquet, and the two of us will push it."

Xing Shangzhi nodded, and said with a smile: "I understand, I won't let this old boy run away." ”

When the group entered the city, Yao Renji really arranged a reception banquet, and Sun Piyang also agreed, but Wang Zhong and Xing Shangzhi pushed it away. Both of them were tired of traveling and traveling, and it was not suitable to participate in the banquet.

The residence of the brigade has long been arranged, it is in a compound behind the county government, and the reception banquet is also held here.

In addition to Yao Yuanji, the governor of Cangzhou, there were other Cangzhou officials, as well as several famous local gentry, including Zhou Feng.

Not far from the banquet hall, Wang Zhong and Xing Shangzhi had already gathered their subordinates, and at the same time instructed a brocade-clothed guard ear hundred households: "You take it with you in the banquet hall, and take down all those who have news." ”

"The people who go in to deliver the food have remembered it, they are all staring at it, and they must not let the news leak out, understand?"

The hundred-hundred-household hurriedly replied: "I understand the lowly position, please rest assured!" ”

After the arrangements were made here, Xing Shangzhi and Wang Zhong set off with the people, and after the two of them left the compound, they galloped in one direction with the people and horses. Soon came to the front of a rice shop, and Jinyiwei and the fans of the East Factory quickly rushed in.

There was a sudden burst of chickens and dogs jumping inside, and many people were so frightened that they screamed.

Wang Zhong and Xing Shangzhi got down from the carriage at this time, and when they saw this scene, they instructed the people around them: "All press up, and no one is allowed to escape!" When he had finished speaking, the two men stood at the door, and they had no intention of going in.

At this time, the sound of a fight suddenly came from inside, accompanied by screams.

Wang Zhong immediately said with a happy face: "It seems that you have found the right place." ”

The fight didn't last long, and soon a bloodied brocade-clothed guard came out of it, carrying a bloody knife in his hand, and his face was full of evil energy. He went straight to Wang Zhong and Xing Shangzhi and said, "My lord, the warehouse inside has been taken down. ”

The two of them were immediately overjoyed, and Xing Shangzhi ordered: "Search, search the entire rice shop, and no one is allowed to escape!" ”

"Yes, sir!" Baihu agreed, turned around and walked inside.

The whole street was long gone, and the shops next to it were closed, and only the people who were pressed to the side shivered. Wang Zhong shook his robe and said with a smile: "Xing Qianhu, let's go in and have a look?" ”

"Father-in-law, please!" Xing Shangzhi said with a smile, and at the same time made a gesture of please.

The two of them walked into the rice shop, through the lobby, behind which was a three-entry courtyard, and the second courtyard was already busy. Seeing two people coming in, one of the people from the East Factory came over and said, "Father-in-law, except for one warehouse here where rice is used, everything else is salt." ”

"The number hasn't been counted yet, but if you look at it, it's about tens of thousands of catties!"

Wang Zhong smiled at the time: "This Zhou family has 20,000 catties of salt, and our family has asked people to check, 12,000 catties of small leads, 8,000 catties of big leads, 200 catties of small leads, 300 catties of big leads, and the Zhou family is only 48,000 catties of salt a year." ”

"Now tens of thousands of catties have been found in a front yard, it seems that the scale of this Zhou family is not small!"

Xing Shangzhi said with a smile: "Then let's go to the back and have a look!" ”

The two came to the backyard, the bloody corpse had been dragged aside, and they were also counting in and out, and when they saw two people walking in, someone came to report.

"My lord, there are six warehouses in this courtyard, and they are all full of salt."

The two glanced at each other, and immediately laughed, and sure enough, they had gained a lot. It seems that since the news that the imperial court was going to investigate the salt policy, the Zhou family has concentrated all the salt in their hands and hid it.

"All registered!" Wang Zhong commanded: "The person in charge didn't die, did he?" ”

"Back to my father-in-law, no!" The man agreed, waved behind him, and said, "Press up the warehouse manager!" ”

The two Dongchang fans walked over with an old man, came to Xing Shangzhi and Wang Zhong, and threw the person on the ground casually. The old man was stupid at this time, and when he saw Xing Shangzhi and Wang Zhong, he kept kneeling and kowtowing.

Wang Zhong looked at the old man with a smile and asked, "Don't kowtow, our family asks you, who is your surname, and the salt here is all yours?" ”

The old man hurriedly said: "Little old man Zhou Hui, the warehouse manager here, these salts are not Xiao Lao'er's, these are the Zhou family's salt, the little old man is just taking care of the warehouse for the Zhou family, the eldest man spares his life!" ”

Waving his hand, Wang Zhong said directly: "Suppress people!" After speaking, he said to Wang San beside him: "What about the real Zhou Cang?" ”

"Back to my father-in-law, at the back door!" Wang San hurriedly bowed and said.

"Hand it over to the East Factory!" Wang Zhong nodded and said, "Xingqianhu, shouldn't we go to raid the house?" ”

Xing Shangzhi touched his big bald head, and said with a smile: "Let's go, go home, we are the best at Jinyiwei!" If the brothers of Dongchang are too hard, then our brothers of Jinyiwei are willing to do it for them. ”

glanced at Xing Shangzhi, and said angrily: "If you want to be beautiful, it's all the emperor's silver." ”

Xing Shangzhi grinned and didn't speak, although these were all the emperor's silver, and they didn't dare to move the large portions, but they secretly hid a small portion of the soup, which was familiar to them. Seeing these people's salt, both of them could imagine how fat the Zhou family was.

Even if it's just a small portion, that's enough for them to be happy, how could Wang Zhong not see Xing Shangzhi's thoughts.

As a eunuch himself, he is dry in the palace on weekdays, and now he has the opportunity to come out to make a profit, how can he let Xing Shangzhi take advantage, don't even think about it. Wang Zhong waved the dust and said, "Let's go!" It's too late if you don't leave! ”

The two of them left the grain store and rushed straight to the Zhou family, on the way Wang Zhong warned Xing Shangzhi and said: "Raid the house and return to the house, tell your people to be honest, the daughters of the Zhou family are not allowed to move, do you hear?" ”

Xing Shangzhi was stunned for a moment, they went to raid the house, not to rob things and people, but it is certain to take advantage of the hand.

"My factory father-in-law said, the emperor is keeping an eye on this errand, don't cause trouble for yourself, you want to find a woman, you can charter a green building after the matter is over, but the female dependents of the Zhou family can't move, you know?"

Xing Shangzhi thought of those pervasive inner factories, nodded solemnly: "I will tell them!" ”
