It was about the first afternoon of the second day when Fan Ruohai came to Ziyang, and the person in charge of the Shandong Salt Gang in Ziyang did not dare to slack off because he was given a death order, so he took his men to the dock and the intersections of various roads to squat and keep an eye on them early in the morning.

When the next batch of ships docked, he directly led people to break in.

For some reason, this coupe was not informed of the local salt control bureau in advance, and when the people of the salt gang suddenly broke into the boat, the people above were obviously unprepared, and they immediately went to stop it after reacting.

But the person in charge of the Salt Gang here has more than two days left, and he is naturally anxious, and he was going to go straight to the real thing when he came out this time, but seeing this, he drew his knife in advance and was about to subdue the people on the ship.

But he never expected that this time he came out in a hurry, and there were fewer people.

The other party has more than a dozen large boats, and the entourage is not 1,000 but 800, and the person in charge of the salt gang only brings a few dozen subordinates, which is said to be more than enough to deal with ordinary smuggler salt dealers.

The predecessor of the Shandong Salt Gang was the Dengzhou Inspection Division Yanding personally led by Wang Zheng, although the local inspection department should have been replaced by the Salt Enforcement Bureau, but the Salt Gang is not an official thing after all, and the salt inspection still has to do the work of the surface, that is, to take the documents of the Imperial Court Inspection Division, in order to investigate and pay off the smuggled salt in an open and honest manner.

Originally, with the authority of the king in the local area, the governor and the yamen of the three divisions turned a blind eye to such things, and no one dared to mention it at all.

But when the leader of the Salt Gang showed his identity and went on the ship to prepare for a search, the people on the Cao Yun didn't appreciate it at all, saying how the Inspection Department was qualified to check Lao Tzu's goods, and asked the leader of the Salt Gang to find the people from the Salt Bureau.

The leader of the Salt Gang in Ziyang didn't know that there were ghosts in the Salt Enforcement Bureau, and he still felt a little careless at the moment, and there were fewer people.

They blocked the bow of the boat, and did not let the people of the Salt Gang go in to check, and they even made a lot of noise, although they did not dare to draw their knives blatantly, but they were not afraid of the Salt Gang.

Because it is the boundary of the Lu Wangfu, the Shandong army has some scruples in management, which also gives these people an opportunity to take advantage of it, and their courage is getting fatter and fatter.

Most of the ships transported by Cao Yun came from the north and south, and although in recent years Shandong has become more and more prosperous under the management of Zhongliebo, it is still far from the prosperous places of Jiangnan and Qinhuai, which have been prosperous since ancient times.

People from these places, even if they are extremely ordinary civilians, often feel superior to others when they are in Shandong.

Moreover, those scholars in Jiangnan, under the leadership of the so-called great talents of the Restoration Society in Hou Fangyu, did not have a good opinion of Wang Zheng.

What harbors evil intentions, and does not follow the way of Confucius and Mencius, these are spread everywhere is considered light, and there is even a scholar who has been restored to the society who said that Wang Zheng raised dozens of concubines behind his wife's back, and often visited the Qinglou in Licheng, and his private life was very chaotic and luxurious.

Anyway, none of these people have really been to Shandong, and even Hou Fangyu himself was many years ago, besides, the credibility of these words is still very high in the mouths of literati who are "knowledgeable".

The people of Jiangnan and other places seem to be more gossip and more deceitful than other places, and such obvious nonsense is widely circulated.

In their eyes, Wang Zheng's well-documented exploits have all become the merits of killing good people and robbing his subordinates, and his ugly face is better than Liu Zeqing's.

The murderous demon in the Central Plains is talking about Liu Zongmin, but Jiangnan is detained on Wang Zheng's head, and what shameless thieves are there, these absurd statements can only be imagined, and they can't make up without them.

But these are not the main thing, the most interesting thing is that what these scholars say, Jiangnan will spread whatever they say, it is simply to control the general trend of public opinion in the entire Jiangnan, so thinking about it, it is not surprising that the saying of "ruling the government from afar" is not surprising.

If in other parts of Shandong, these traders encounter the people of the Salt Gang, they will avoid them, how can there be such a righteous and unyielding inch, isn't this looking for death?

"The reason why our Jiangnan is so prosperous is because everyone is comfortable doing business, and if you manage it like this, it will become more and more impoverished."

"That's right, this is the boundary of King Lu's Mansion, where you low-level patrol minions are talking, go back to the place as soon as possible!"

The two sides of the two sides say a word, it would be good to show a knife in this situation, but after all, there are few people from the Salt Gang, if there is really a fatality, the other party will provoke trouble from the beginning, and it will not even be able to get off the boat.

Some of the men from the merchant fleet, seeing that the employer was blocked here, the boat could not leave for a while, and at the moment they were also beating and scolding, and the situation became more and more chaotic.

The leader of the Salt Gang was holding a knife in his hand, but he was retreating step by step, he never expected that things would be chaotic to such a point, how can this be regarded as the area guarded by the Shandong Army Marshal, where did the other party get the courage to make noise?

Speaking of some luck, a member of the Salt Gang took advantage of the war of words between the two sides, and unexpectedly knocked down several guys who were piling up the sacks, and then cut a hole in the sack with a knife without hesitation.

What flowed out was white rice, but he didn't believe it, so he picked a bag closer to the inside and put it in

Hey, good luck, this time it's the Ninghai refined salt of fine sand!

All of a sudden, the wharf, which was originally as chaotic as a vegetable market, instantly quieted down a lot, and the people around were all looking at Ning Haiyan flowing down from the sack in a daze.

No matter how much Wang Zheng relaxes the investigation in the Ziyang area, selling smuggled salt is also a serious crime, and once it is found out, it will be ruined.

"Shout again, shout again, why are you dumb?"

Since the government-run Ning Haiyan was found, the momentum of the people of the Salt Gang suddenly rose and immediately gained the upper hand.

There were many people on the boat who didn't know it, thinking it was an ordinary luck, but they didn't expect it to be this kind of headless errand, and at this time, the noise had disappeared, and they began to retreat in shock and fear.

Those outlaws were not, although they were a little surprised, but they quickly reacted, they came out to sell their heads, and they naturally had short blades on their bodies, seeing that the momentum was not right, there was a sudden outburst without any warning.

The Salt Gang had fewer people than the other party, and they were defenseless, so they were directly dispersed by these outlaws, and even a few were cut down.

Blood spurted out at once, these guys and traders from Nanzhili had never seen blood at all, and they immediately ran around in a panic, and many people from the Salt Gang were knocked down again before they got up, and by the time they reacted, the other party had already jumped on a few small boats and ran away.

This kind of escape method is simply unambiguous, and the people of the Salt Gang were stunned for a while, and they couldn't catch up at all if they wanted to.

It's also a little ridiculous to say, Shandong Salt Gang has done those ridiculous and generous things one after another this time, making themselves shameless.

First of all, let the family resell Ninghai salt under their noses, this time they went out to catch salt violently, and they found it, but they let the other party get on the boat and run away, which is even more embarrassing than the last time.
