"The old business?" Or is Yun Tianzong, the old salt lord clever: "The inspection is talking about selling smuggled salt?" That's a good idea! ”

Huo Qiu also agreed: "Although we used to sell salt only in small quantities, the relationship is there, and now we have a salt shop in Panshi Town, and the business will definitely not be bad." ”

In the Qing season, salt implements a monopoly system, the price of salt has always remained high, although the temperature is located in the southeast coast, but the price of salt is particularly high, farmers often have the sigh that they can't afford to eat salt, Huo Qiu, these salt barons came into being.

Yun Tianzong thought of another idea: "You can trade salt with Ye Niangzi, Ye Niangzi has several boats of fish a day, just because there is no fishing salt, she can only throw it at a low price." ”

In this era, there are not as many fishing methods as in modern times, even in the offshore waters, fishery resources are particularly rich, Ye Niangzi's fleet not only fishes in Ouhaikou, but also collects a large amount of fish as protection fees.

However, the consumption power of the entire Panshi Town is very limited, and there are not as many preservation methods as the descendants in this era, so the result is that even if Ye Niangzi sells a large number of fish to Liu Chang at a low price, there will still be a considerable amount of fish to be poured into the sea.

To deal with these catches, it is necessary to obtain a large amount of fishing salt, roughly 1,000 catties of fish to be processed with 150 catties of fishing salt, and Ye Niangzi can't find so much fishing salt at all.

"Now that you have the money, hurry up and do it!" When Qu Jie thought of the profits, he was also quite moved: "Check, should we also get one or two fishing boats?" ”

Yun Tianzong objected: "There is no need to compete with Ge Wuye for this piece of meat now, not to mention that if they are not blessed now, fishing is the same thing, as long as they hold this territory, they can't do any business." ”

If it weren't for Liu Chang having such a piece of land in Panshi Town, then no matter how much Ge Wuye caught fish, then most of them would work for those fishing tyrants and salt tyrants, and then they were fished out by the county officials, canonical history, and book offices, and finally fell into the hands of Ge Wuye, which was just a few hard-earned money.

But now Ge Wuye himself is the biggest fisherman in the entire Oujiang River, and he can collect a large amount of fish from others, and he doesn't have to be scraped by the county officials, let alone pay all kinds of taxes and fees, so he is jubilant every day.

As soon as he said this, Liu Chang immediately understood: "Since this is the case, after the New Year, we will arrest the matter of selling salt, and there are ......"

He lowered his voice: "We can't be limited to such a small place as Panshi Town, one of the Dragon Lance Whistle and Nanxi Whistle will stay in the village to practice, and the other will be pulled out to receive actual combat drills......

This is a nice thing to say, according to the straightforward words, it is to pull out to raise food, so he also said: "We can cooperate well with Fifth Master Ge in this regard." ”

……

At the end of this year, the Wenchu Daotai Yamen looked particularly devoid of the New Year's flavor, with the atmosphere of war everywhere, and there were green battalion soldiers guarding the yamen inside and outside.

Although Qinglian, the envoy of Zhejiang Salt Transport, does not have the official position of Wen Chu Dao, he is not only a first-class member of the province, but also has served as a Wen Dao platform for more than ten years.

It's just that this Lord Qinglian didn't have the usual calm bearing, but angrily asked Zhang Chengdusi, who was kneeling in the city guard camp below: "Is Vice General Chi really not in the enemy formation?" Have you never been held by the enemy? ”

Zhang Cheng finally escaped back to Fucheng, and now it can be said that he is embarrassed, the official robe on his body is tattered, and even his shoes have been lost, and he deliberately rolled in the mud before entering the city, and he is particularly loyal: "The little official saw it really, and at that time, the thieves and soldiers were thirty towards Chi Xiezhen, and Chi Xiezhen only had a few personal soldiers around him, so he could only go into battle in person, and was unfortunately killed by the thieves." ”

Qinglian set the tone first: "You should be mistaken, it is the thief soldiers of 3,000 to attack the deputy general of the pool, the deputy general personally led the team to kill the thief, killed dozens of thieves with his bare hands, and finally was killed by the thief, this time the deputy general of the pool took five hundred green battalion soldiers to cross the river to the north, I wanted to recover Lecheng in one fell swoop, but accidentally encountered seven or eight thousand red thieves in the Nanxi River, although our soldiers were brave, but they were defeated ten times the enemy, resulting in defeat. ”

Zhang Dusi immediately changed his words according to the tone of Lord Qinglian: "What my lord said is very true, although our soldiers were defeated in this battle, they were still honored, and they fought with five hundred people for one day and one night, and killed no less than three or four thousand thieves. ”

He has already played this handy, anyway, Xiang Yong is not a person, once defeated, it must not be allowed to be counted in the strength of the battle, the strength of the green battalion is not good to shrink, can only be subtracted by one hundred, and then make up for it from other aspects.

Yu Shufeng, who was next to him, opened his mouth to make up the story for Qing Lian: "Zhang Dusi, you led your troops to fight out of the encirclement, how many people are there now?" ”

Zhang Dusi immediately understood: "There are still hundreds of brave soldiers." ”

Although there were only twenty or thirty Green Battalion soldiers who actually returned to Laifucheng, this defeat had to be turned into a great victory first, but Qing Lian was very dissatisfied with the result of losing 400 people in a battle: "Have you heard that there are still the remnants of Deputy General Chi in Jiangbei?" ”

"According to the soldiers who retreated, there are still more than 100 soldiers in Jiangbei who have not yet been contained, and the petty officials are willing to risk their lives to go to the shelter."

The conclusion of the whole battle was that it was not a big defeat in which 600 green battalion soldiers and 100 village warriors were annihilated, but a small defeat of 500 green battalions, which suffered about half of the damage and nearly half of the remains, and the defeat of the red turban thieves was even greater.

It's just that although this story is rounded, the faces of several adults present are not good-looking, Qinglian raised his hand, Zhang Dusi retreated with interest, and Yu Shufeng, the Wen Tai next to him, turned pale: "I have been up and down in the sea for decades, and it is the first time I have seen such a brave thief." ”

Ye Bingzhong, the chief soldier of Wenzhou Town, also had palpitations: "Not to mention the word brave, such a thief is unheard of, first Keyueqing County, and now even Deputy General Chi took 500 soldiers to go to level the bandits, and more than half of them were lost, this thing is difficult to do!" ”

Now the strategy used by these senior officials is the one put forward by Qing Lian to raise courage and raise salaries for soldiers, although the top and bottom have already settled in their pockets, but no one dares to be too sloppy in the matter of the Red Turban Army, which is related to their political life.

Qinglian just wanted to speak, but someone outside came quickly, and then someone shouted: "Yunsi, Daotai, Zhentai, Futai, Yongjia County has an urgent military situation to report!" ”

As soon as they heard this, the faces of everyone present became even more ugly, but there was a township leader who ran in sweat all over: "I have seen all the adults, the villain has found out that the Panshi Village has been broken by thousands of red turban thieves, and the soldiers in the village have not survived!" ”

"Please send soldiers to recover Panshi Village as soon as possible, otherwise Jiangbei will be full of thieves!"

Upon hearing such news, Qing Lian waved his hand weakly: "Arrange this warrior's good life properly, and we will first discuss a way to recover the rock village." ”

"The Panshi Battalion has been destroyed again...... Qinglian directly complained to the general soldier of Wenzhou Zhenye: "Zhentai, the Yueqing First Association has been wiped out, if this responsibility is investigated, Zhentai is the most responsible, you have to find a way to deal with it." ”

Ye Zongbing could only turn to Daotai and Futai for help: "Yunsi, I'm just an acting officer, this is all the fault of my predecessor, and I have nothing to do with it, Daotai, Futai, how do you think this matter is dealt with?" ”

"How to deal with the aftermath?" Qinglian has only one way: "Yueqing Association is completely destroyed, this matter is indispensable to the edict, I am Manchuria with a blue flag, and I have made a lot of money, at most I will go home and be a happy man, but you are Han, if you want to keep this master's head, you have to make some military achievements!" ”

He lowered his voice: "At least we have to take the rock village back!" ”
