0906 Salt Lane
Ma Zhong didn't care about the whispers of the people, and stopped paying attention to the orders after he finished speaking.
Some of the poor people came to beg again, but they got nothing.
Seeing this, many disappointed people decided to try their luck at the Song family, despite their suspicions.
One Ma Zhong obviously can't help so many people, if something really happens to the Song family, maybe there is some hope.
Seeing that these displaced people were gradually dispersed, Ma Zhong asked Ma Miao strangely, "How can there be so many displaced people in Jing County. With so many powerful things, didn't anyone think about cleaning up this mess? If something goes wrong here, I am afraid it will become the source of disaster in Jing County. ”
After Ma Miao heard this, he explained the problem in an extremely popular way, "Brother, you don't know this. It's like, no one will get along with a piece of, we would rather hide far away, and no one will be idle to step on two feet. ”
Ma Zhong was really speechless when he heard this.
This explanation is quite apt......
However, Ma Zhong still had doubts, "Second brother, I think many of them are in the prime of life, and it is an excellent labor to take out some food to raise them." ”
Ma Miao also nodded, "It's just these people, but if you think about it, no one jumped out of the cracks in the stones, which one is not a family and a child, an old and a young?" If a useful strong laborer is dragged down here, then he doesn't know how much trouble there will be. These untouchables, whoever gets involved, everyone will be bad. ”
"Ugh." Ma Zhong shook his head, indeed, to be able to get mixed up with this, it is estimated that everyone here has a heavy burden.
It is easy to absorb the Ding Zhuang in this, but it is difficult to digest the drag in it.
Just when Ma Miao thought that Ma Zhong had lost interest in these people, he listened to Ma Zhong continue to inquire, "Then, what do these people live on?" ”
"There are naturally many ways to survive. There are always some jobs that others are unwilling to do, such as collecting firewood and charcoal, cleaning and transporting filth, being a helper, and fighting and killing for others. Sometimes, in time for the busy farming, these people also went out of the city to do a short job for the landlords in various places. These jobs are extremely hard, and they have to shed blood and sweat, but the pay is small, and others are unwilling to do it. However, it also gave them a way to live. ”
Ma Zhong shook his head, "There is a way to live, but it's a pity that this way of life makes them ......"
Ma Zhong said this, still shaking his head but remaining silent.
It is this seemingly sustainable way of life that slowly leads them to death.
Ma Zhong thought about it, and had a little more calculations in his heart.
Ma Zhong and Ma Miao hurried through this ruin-like place, and when they passed somewhere, Ma Miao pointed from a distance, "This is Salt Alley, and it used to be a place to sell illicit salt." The boat came up from the river, went directly to us, and then sold it to the Quartet. In fact, to put it bluntly, it is the business between us and the Song family and the Zhang family, and Sun Quan's tax officials dare not ask. There are only a few of us who call this slum-populated place Salt Alley. ”
Ma Miao smiled, and then said, "Several surrounding counties rely on this. So a few of our families in Jing County are doing quite well, at least, much better than other places in Danyang County. ”
"Hmm." Ma Zhong hummed, and then said casually, "Salt is such an important thing, and the Jiangdong Army will not always be able to see it." Maybe there is someone else behind this, by the way, second brother, do you know who you bought the salt from? ”
Ma Miao shook his head, "I don't know. The people who came are more mysterious, and looking at their strength, they seem to have a good background. ”
Ma Zhong secretly said in his heart, could it be another behemoth like the Zhuo family?
However, it may also be the military attache of the Jiangdong Army, when Sun Shangxiang smuggled salt, he relied on the help of Zhu Zhi and Lu Fan.
Thinking of this, Ma Zhong said half-jokingly, "It's strange to listen to, and you have to pay more attention to it in the future." Do you think you have taken a big advantage, maybe it is Sun Jiangdong who sold you salt? ”
Ma Miao laughed, "How is this possible." ”
The two brothers were chatting, and Zhang Da, who was exploring the road in front, suddenly paused, pointed to a person in the distance and whispered, "Lord, look." ”
"Huh?" Ma Zhong glanced at it in confusion, and saw a back flickering and disappearing in front.
"What? What's the situation? ”
Zhang Da said with some uncertainty, "Lord, why do I think that the person who just passed by looks like a person?" ”
"Which one?" Ma Zhong frowned, Zhang Da and Fan Jiang both grew up in the Shanzi Battalion of Captain Wu Meng's battalion, and they have followed Pan Zhang's march and battle since they were half-grown children, and they have hardly had any social relationship with the outside world for more than ten years.
Who could be someone he knew who appeared here?
Zhang Da said without thinking, "Feng Zheng! ”
Ma Zhong twisted his brows into a ball at this time, "Why did Feng Zheng enter the city?" ”
Feng Zai is the schoolmaster of the school office, and it is not difficult to see what he wants to do with his eyes. Ma Zhong had been trying to leave him out before, but he didn't expect him to find it himself.
Zhang Da scratched his head and came up with an answer that he thought was reliable, "Maybe it's easy to hide here." ”
Ma Zhong shook his head.
However, he was not very concerned about this issue either.
Even if Feng Zai dug out his strategic plan in Jing County, it would be meaningless. Sun Jiangdong will not even listen, and will throw away the information.
Because at that time, I am afraid that the Jiangdong Army already knew who those warships had fallen into.
They are more concerned about the Dongting Lake, where Ma Zhong's water army is hidden, and Ma Zhong's water strategy.
……
The Ma family had already fallen into chaos at this time.
Atletico fidgeted for a full hour after Ma Zhong left. During this period, he constantly overturned his own ideas and constantly came up with new plans and attitudes.
However, the fear of the future, and a hint of luck, made him suppress all the objections, ready to persevere and see the final result of Ma Zhong.
Just when Atletico Madrid once again had the idea of hiding back to the Zong family, someone finally came to the front line.
Ma Zhong led the people to successfully break through the Song family's compound and had already killed it.
Atletico Madrid's blood boiled when he listened, and the compromise thoughts that had just emerged were quickly strangled to death. Just when Atletico Madrid was considering whether to take a risk and make a move against the children of the Song family.
Fan Jiang rushed over in time.
He barely used a word to make Atletico firm up his mind!
Fan Jiang took out one human head after another from the cloth pocket on his body, and many of the people in it had seen Ma Jing, and they were all figures who were surprised in Jing County!
Atletico was about to ask excitedly, but Fan Jiang then solemnly presented the head, but Atletico couldn't say a word.
