After Lu Kui left, the salt lords on the second floor all smiled, and the salt lords began to make noise again, like a market outside to buy vegetables and pick up goods.

The only decent place to treat and eat in Ninghai Prefecture is this Chenghaixuan, Lu Kui is gone, but there are a lot of people of all kinds who come and go.

When he heard that the second floor was taken over, he was immediately furious, saying who was so arrogant.

Qian Jingui was afraid that Lu Kui would go up to stop it a few more times, but the more he stopped these people, the more he shouted, no matter what he didn't care about, even Qian Jingui scolded him by the way.

When Qian Jingui said the situation, no matter how angry he was, he immediately shut up and obediently walked out of Chenghaixuan, admitting that the scolding voice was too loud, even if he left, he was not very relieved, for fear of provoking these vicious salt dealers today.

I don't know how long it took, but the fierce argument on the second floor continued, and one person got up and bowed.

"Now that everyone is here, do you want to stand up and say that we have been angry with the new inspection king in the past few months."

It was a salt dealer in the Rongcheng area who got up to speak, Wang Zheng set up a centigold, except for Jinghai, the first to affect the Rongcheng area, they were also the most anxious, it was not okay to lose money like this, and they wanted a solution.

No one remembers the real name of Liu Dongjia, everyone only knows that he has a name called Liu Bei on the road, and he is a big salt merchant on Yangma Island.

This person is known for his benevolence and righteousness on the salt road, and often helps some poor salt dealers, and the salt poles want to ask as soon as they have no idea, and over time, Liu Bei's name has been launched.

This Liu Bei often sells salt in coastal Shandong, Japan, North Korea and other places, and he often goes to the Manchu Qing Dynasty in private, and he has done business with Qi Lai, a maritime merchant in Jiaodong, and he can be regarded as having some friendship.

This Liu Bei is also a pivotal figure on the salt road east of Ninghai, and now the Chishan salt field has been collapsed by Wang Zheng, and even the second shopkeeper Chi Benrong has been arrested.

"You are Rongcheng, I don't know the situation here, I am from Haiyang, and many people have already lost their salt and dare not give out the salt."

"Brother Haiyang, what is your side there, we are from Weihai, the red mountain salt in Pingsuri is one or two dollars of silver, and the more expensive ones are one or two dollars of silver, which is acceptable. But the first thing the surnamed Wang did after doing the inspection was to set up the Chishan Salt Farm, and now the Chishan salt is scarce, and it has reached one or two or five dollars of silver. ”

Speaking of this, the man snorted on the ground and said indignantly: "Let's not mention the bullshit of the inspection department, the price of biao is faster than the price of salt, isn't this deliberately trying to cut off everyone's wealth?" ”

"The two brothers in front, I am from Laiyang, and our side has also been affected a lot, and the price of salt has risen by two dollars, this time I came to ask instead of the brothers over there whether Chishan salt can still enter."

One man muttered, "You ask us what we do, and we want to know where to get the salt." ”

Liu Bei was self-conscious, and waited until these salt dealers were arguing with red faces, then he got up leisurely and arched his hand:

"The salt road is in turmoil, these are the people surnamed Wang are doing trouble, all of you here are the great power on the Jiaodong Salt Road, Liu is not talented, a small salt farm has been built on Yangma Island, if you don't dislike it, you can go to Liu's salt field to get salt, Liu also has a boiling sea team in his hands, and it is not bad compared to the salt field surnamed Wang."

After Liu Bei finished speaking, one of them got up and said, "Okay! Liu Dongjia and I can still trust it, and I will go to Yangma Island to get salt in the future! ”

"Count me in."

"That's all there is to it."

Liu Bei smiled slightly, and was about to say something, but he heard the sound of the stairs behind him, and at this time, someone actually came up, and he was a little unhappy at that time, and said coldly:

"Liu Bei has a banquet here, and those who come can go back, otherwise..."

"What else are you going to do?"

With a chuckle, a tall young man in a half-worn shirt walked up with a friendly smile on his face.

As soon as this young man appeared, the salt poles in the audience were a little overwhelmed, and by the way, they still didn't recognize Wang Zheng.

Liu Bei was the same, he also frowned when he saw Wang Zheng, and when he was about to scold, he heard a louder noise from downstairs, and many guests on the first floor ran out in a panic.

"The salt dog is here!"

"The inspection department handled the case, and the idlers left as soon as possible. Money shopkeeper, Chenghaixuan is not open today! ”

With this arrogant voice, Shao Yong rushed into Chenghaixuan with a waist knife and dozens of salt dings, and as soon as he turned his head, he went up to the second floor violently, and saw the salt lords gathered upstairs.

Shao Yong pulled out his waist knife and laughed:

"Okay, you salt sellers are all gathered here, but it saves Lao Tzu's trouble! Whoever comes, bring it back to the department. ”

Hearing this, the salt lords present suddenly got up, and they didn't have any ideas after they got up, standing together face to face, looking for ideas for each other at a loss, how could the inspection department come?

Liu Bei had a black line on his face, the so-called Xiucai couldn't explain it when he met Bing, the more you said at this time, the more trouble it would be, so when many salt poles were waiting for him to make an idea, Liu Bei flinched.

Seeing that Liu Bei didn't speak, the salt poles became a little frightened, speaking of which, everyone was just a smuggler with no background, and the few who had a background didn't dare to speak, how could the rest of these people fight the inspection department.

Suddenly, the unattractive young man who went upstairs first spoke: "Shao Yong, what kind of salt sellers, these are my guests, take people downstairs." ”

"The fault of the lowly position, the fault of the lowly office!"

Shao Yong pretended to be surprised, and immediately threw down his waist knife, completely lacking his previous menacing appearance, and ran down with people.

Who Shao Yong is, these salt poles all know, that is the former leader in the hands of King Zhang Yan, he was actually dismissed by this young man with a word?

The second floor, which was noisy like a bazaar, became silent in an instant, and Ren was a loud and unreasonable man who shouted loudly at first, but at this time he was well-behaved and clever, as if he was a good student of a private school.

Wang Zheng looked at these silent salt lords, smiled slightly, hugged his fists and said, "Wang Zheng is late, please forgive me." You don't have to be formal, please take a seat. ”

said this as if Wang Zheng invited them to come this time, and put Liu Bei aside, not treating himself as an outsider at all.

Although he was clasping his fists and saluting, Wang Zheng startled the people who were standing still, and they exploded, and the salt poles began to salute in return.

These people followed Wang Zheng's example, bent their bodies to the bottom, the tables, chairs and benches bumped and bumped, and the second floor was full of 'bang' sounds.

"It's okay, it's okay, Lord Wang (Mr. Qian) is too polite..."
