Walking the mountain road with food on your shoulders is not an easy job.

A stone of grain is very heavy, although a bucket in the Han Dynasty is only more than 30 catties, and a stone of grain is only more than 60 catties. Leng Jun carried more than half of it alone, leaving only a small part for Su Ren. As the saying goes, there is no light in the long distance, but Su has had this kind of bull horsepower at any time, and he has not gone far and is already out of breath, and he is about to become.

Leng Jun was helpless, grabbed the grain bag on Su Ren's shoulder, and said with a smile: "It's not bad to talk and do things, but isn't this person good?" You can't carry dozens of catties of rice grain, and I don't know what you used to do? ”

"Hey!" Su Ren sighed: "It's hard to say!" When it's time for you to know, you'll know everything, and now you'll treat me as a savage you've rescued! ”

"Savages? You don't look like it, how do you look at it, you are not only smarter than others, but also more knowledgeable than others, I don't know you in just two days, and I don't know whether it is right or wrong to follow you. ”

Su Ren smiled: "What I said, I seem to want to draw something for you, what do you have for me to draw?" ”

Leng Jun thought for a long time and shook his head: "It seems that there is really nothing, but it is true that a stone of grain is mixed back, by the way, what are you going to do with all this money?" ”

Su Ren shook his head: "I don't know, I haven't thought about it yet, let me think about it for two days, if you want to do business, you have to plan well, let's just have this little belongings, if you make a mistake, you will lose all your money, it's better to be careful." ”

Leng Jun nodded repeatedly. The two of them walked towards Lao Junguan while talking. There is not much difference from yesterday, there are still a few pedestrians on the road, and there are people busy in the nearby fields. The two-and-a-half-year-old children had a very hard time carrying hundreds of catties of food, and they couldn't even hold on to the coldness at noon. It's still the same big tree that rested when I went, and the two of them were still resting where they were yesterday.

From the cloth bag he carried, he took out the food he bought in the city in the morning, and it was just a few baked cakes. Without water, you can only chew dry, and it is a little uncomfortable to eat.

Looking at the busy crowd in the fields, Su Ren asked, "You said they don't have anything to buy all year round?" ”

Leng Jun shook his head: "The clothes on their bodies are made of their own hemp weaving, and the food is produced in the field, not to mention that they are tenants, and the rest of them is just an ration after paying rent every year, where does the spare money come from to buy things, if you insist on buying it, it will be salt, and the officials do not allow the people to sell this thing, they can only buy it from the city, except for this, there is really nothing else." ”

"Salt! Salt? Su Ren's eyes suddenly lit up: "What is the price of salt?" ”

Leng Jun sighed and said: "This is expensive, a pound of salt is more than a stone of grain, fortunately this thing eats less, if it is the same as grain, then a lot of people will die." ”

"How expensive is it?"

"According to the official price, a pound of salt is only one dollar, but after tossing back and forth, you will get at least five dollars to eat it in your mouth."

"Isn't that the price of a stone of rice?"

"Yes! Our Wenshui County official salt is only available to the county family, which is a unique business, so people are tough when they speak. ”

Su Ren suddenly stopped talking. Since salt is a government business, it is inevitable that the people cannot make and sell it casually. Hearing Leng Jun's introduction, Su Ren's first reaction was to make salt by himself. He had seen the jar of salt in Lao Junguan's kitchen, and the salt inside was black and dirty, not only coarse but also full of impurities. This cold moon is still hidden like a baby, and Su Ren can't look at it twice if he wants to.

Leng Jun seemed to understand what Su Ren was going to do, and smiled: "Don't think about it, do you know how much a salt is worth?" As for the hundreds of dollars in our pockets, we don't even think about it, and we can't get it without 10,000 dollars. ”

Su Ren snorted coldly: "Salt is not a rare thing, you can make it yourself, as long as there is brine, it is easy to do, I happen to know that there is good brine in a place, but I am worried about ......"

"Huh?" Without waiting for Su Ren to finish speaking, Leng Jun hurriedly interrupted Su Ren's words: "This is a criminal matter, buying illicit salt is to go to jail, and selling illicit salt will have to lose your head, the master has already offended the county, at this time, we still have to settle down, if the official salt business of the county is broken, Lao Junguan will really come to the end." ”

Su Ren smiled: "What are you afraid of?" I didn't say I wanted to do it, it's okay, it's okay! Enough rest, right? Let's keep going. ”

It was already midnight when I returned to Laojunguan. Leng Yue lay at the door and looked outside, and it was not until the two of them came back that she breathed a sigh of relief. When I saw the cloth bag on Leng Jun's shoulder, I was even happier when I touched it and knew that it was food. Yesterday, Su Ren and his senior brother went to the county seat with that strange piece of furniture, and Leng Yue hung a heart. Of course he knew that Chongxu Dao Chang offended the county Cheng, and the county was also a local snake, if the anger fell on the senior brother and Su Ren, they would go to prison even if they couldn't die.

Leng Yue cried like a tearful person, it was tears of joy. I have been in Laojunguan for more than ten years, and I have never seen so much grain, so I grabbed the rice in the cloth bag one by one, and felt the feeling of rice grains flowing down between my fingers, and the satisfaction in my heart was needless to say.

Su Ren sat on the steps: "Sister, we haven't even eaten, can you stop looking at those rice, can you get some rice, they can't run." ”

Leng Yue smiled shyly and nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes, yes, the two brothers are waiting, and I'll go cook." ”

Early the next morning, Su Ren got up very early and went directly into the cold room. Leng Jun was actually not there, and after asking Leng Yue, he knew that Leng Jun got up earlier than him, and he should practice in the back mountain. Su Ren immediately came towards the back mountain.

The place where the Laojun Temple is located is in front of the Wenling Mountains, where the geological movement is most intense. The back mountain was forcibly raised several zhang, forming a cliff several zhang high.

Standing at the foot of the cliff, Su Ren looked up. Leng Jun sat cross-legged on the top of the cliff, with his hands spread out and facing east, with his eyes closed, he should be practicing the qigong of Tuna.

"Hey! Come down, I have something to ask you. Su Ren yelled towards the cliff.

Leng Jun was still in that posture, without the slightest change, and he didn't answer Su Ren. Su Ren roared twice, trying to find a place to climb up, but after looking for a long time, he didn't find it, grabbed the stones on the ground and threw them at the top of the cliff. It's too high to throw it at all, and it almost hits itself when it falls.

"If you have the ability, don't come down, grandma, think I have to look for you?" Su Ren put one hand in his waist, very shrewd: "Don't say I haven't looked for you, don't look for me when I get rich in the future." ”

Leng Jun may have been annoyed, he let out a long breath, jumped down from the cliff a few feet high, and landed accurately on a protruding rock on the cliff wall, so that the three verticals fell in front of Su Ren.

"Huh!" Su Ren smiled: "They are all masters who see money, and you are the same." ”

Leng Jun sighed: "What's the matter, let's say?" ”

"I thought about it all night yesterday, and I still think that the thing that sells salt can be done." Su Ren pulled the cold, lowered his voice and said: "Think about it, salt is needed by every household, as long as we don't send the salt produced to the city, there should be no problem, the official salt of the county Cheng family is mainly sold to the people in the city, we only give it to the small people in the villages and towns, we don't ask for much, three dollars for a pound of salt, we not only get a profit, the people also get benefits, killing two birds with one stone." ”

Leng Jun shook his head again and again: "No, absolutely not, you can't affect Lao Junguan!" If something happens and we do as soon as you leave? ”

"How could something happen? How much salt do you think the three of us can make? At best, it is only three or five catties per month, such a little salt is very small in the official salt, leaving us to eat it ourselves, just exchange it for some money, rest assured, there is absolutely no problem. ”

"What if I find out?"

Su Ren said with a smile: "This is even more worrying, what kind of place is we, deep mountains and old forests, there have not even been a living person for a few years, who knows, if you are still worried, we can build the place where the salt is made farther away, this should always work, right?" ”

"It's really just three or five pounds?"

Su Ren nodded.

"Is it really okay?"

Su Ren still nodded.

"I'm still not at ease in my heart, the court has repeatedly ordered that it is not allowed to make private salt, you said that if it is discovered, this is ......"

"That's it! I thought you were a man, but when I saw it today, I was also a coward, and I dared to say that I was invincible all over the world with this bit of courage, and the chivalrous man is like you? This is really the sorrow of the rivers and lakes! People pay attention to killing people without blinking, and now it's not for you to kill, just like you, if you fight with real knives and guns, you will definitely turn around and run. ”

"Humph!" Snorted coldly: "You don't need to use any agitation methods, isn't it just to make some private salt?" It's not a lot, what's so scary! . ”

Leng Jun is a child in the end, in front of Su Ren, who is almost thirty years old, both IQ and EQ are at a disadvantage. said that he couldn't match Su Ren's radical method, but he was unconsciously led by Su Ren's nose.

Leng Jun has agreed, and Leng Yue's opinion can be ignored. Originally, there was no need to ask Leng Jun and Leng Yue's opinions on this matter. It's just that Su Ren feels lonely, since he came to Dahan, Su Ren always feels that he is the only one in this world. Even if it is the cold and cold moon brother and sister, in his eyes, it is no different from those who will always stand in the same place in the game. Pulling these two brothers and sisters, Su Ren felt a little more comfortable in his heart, and felt that he was not an outsider.

There are more important problems, here Su Ren is an outsider, he doesn't know anything about the actual situation in Wenshui County, with the help of the Leng Jun Leng Yue brothers and sisters, at least the salt they make can be bought a little better, and the money can be made a little more.

After breakfast, Su Ren and Leng Jun went to find the brine spring he found in Wenling. This time they went into the mountains and forests differently than the last time, they had a clear purpose, and more importantly, there was a master of Leng Jun behind them, and they had a way to deal with anything they encountered. With three days of dry food, two men set off. Su Ren was in a good mood, because he was finally going to do the first thing he did when he came to Dahan, maybe this was the beginning of his integration into Dahan. Although it was an illegal thing, Su Ren didn't care.
