Chapter Forty-Eight: The Former Master

Hearing Chen Liuzi say this, Li Meng was immediately interested, he came to do this inspection, completely in accordance with some small economic common sense in modern times to operate private salt, as for what this inspection is going to do and how to do it, it is really half-understood, it needs such a person to help, who would have thought that someone would send it to the door like this, and hurriedly sent someone to bring it in.

This master followed behind Chen Liuzi and walked into the house tremblingly, Li Meng hadn't asked yet, this master had already knelt on the ground one step forward, "bumpered" a few times, and said in a loud voice:

"Adults spare their lives, adults spare their lives."

Li Meng was a little helpless, thinking to himself how people in this era like to kowtow so much, no matter what they do, they bump a few heads and knock down, they are always not used to it in modern times, the master is wearing a green robe, a black scarf on his head, but he is dressed as a scholar, so far Li Meng has not seen the other party's appearance, just looking at the other party's hair is a little gray, however, the master of the Mu patrol inspection, it must not be a good thing, Li Meng stretched his voice and said:

"Raise your head and make your words clear, you're crying like this, and now I'm slashing you!"

The master suddenly stopped crying and raised his head, this master has three locks of long beard, a clear face, and is very well maintained, and there is no traditional impression of Li Meng's thin skinny, goatee, and triangular eyes, but Li Meng can see that this master is not too afraid, although he looks anxious, but his eyes are very stable, and when he looks up, he is also carefully looking at Li Meng's appearance.

Li Meng suddenly laughed and quipped:

"I don't know what to call it?"

"The surname is Ning, Ning Qiangui, and the adult is called the little Qiangui."

"Qiangui, cash drawer?"

Li Meng couldn't help laughing when he read this name, cleared his throat and said again:

"Mr. Ning, it seems that you are not worried, is it accurate that I will not do anything to you?"

The title of "Mr. Ning" shocked Master Ning, who was kneeling there, and unconsciously knelt straighter, and tidied up his appearance a little, which was the most basic office communication politeness when Li Meng did it in the company in his previous life, which was a subconscious title, but he didn't expect the other party to sound so solemn.

Relatively speaking, the second half of the sentence did not have the expected effect, but Ning Qiangui smiled and said slowly:

"The body is skinned, and the parents who receive it are naturally more cautious, and the students are also a little sure that they will come here......"

Before he finished speaking, Li Meng stepped forward, helped him up, and said with a smile:

"Intellectuals are trouble, you can say anything you want, I think if you can get mixed up outside, you will definitely not kneel at my door early in the morning, I will definitely not kill you, if you have anything to say, just say it!"

Of course, Ning Qiangui didn't understand the word intellectual, but Li Meng's words said everything he thought in his heart, and he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed, but seeing that Li Meng didn't drive him away, he thought that his purpose might have a door, so he opened his mouth at the moment.

Don't say it's okay, as soon as Chen Liuzi, who was standing on the side, almost pulled out a knife to cut people, it turned out that this Ning Qiangui was the planner of the halfway ambush of those salt Ding on the day he took office, Ning Qiangui claimed to be a talent who fell into the first place, and worked as a tent in a certain shop, and later voted for this Mou patrol to be the master, he is different from those bandit-like companions, somewhat clear mind and judgment, Li Mengxinguan took office, in the past, these salt Ding were ready to disperse, or he found a few leaders, saying that everyone has lived a good life for so many years, Wouldn't it be a waste to give up this fat difference?

This Li Meng is just a poor man from a military family, farming for a living, I don't know where to get a few hundred taels of silver to donate a patrol position, presumably there is no ability. As long as everyone makes a move halfway and kills this Li Meng, the new inspector of the entire Laizhou Mansion will not come to take office for a while.

Then everyone is still hanging on the identity of Yanding, as well as the identity of fishing in troubled waters, and when the next inspection comes, maybe things will take a turn for the better. The leaders of those salt dings were originally outlaws and bandits, and they were very comfortable eating and drinking spicy food in the salt ding's seat, and no one wanted to fall into the grass again.

This was really an instant hit, and the two sides quickly decided how to do it, no matter who thought so, those poor soldiers were vulnerable.

Everyone knows what the result is, Ning Qiangui knew that it was not good when he saw Li Meng enter the city that afternoon, and hurriedly ran to a friend's house to hide, and in the next few days, the news that more than 80 people died on the road became more and more certain, and Ning Qiangui, who did not dare to go out, was also more and more afraid.

After all, this matter was planned by him, and this plan failed miserably, presumably neither Li Meng's side nor the former Yanding's side would let him go. After thinking about it, Ning Qiangui was also a person with some ideas, and he cautiously inquired outside for two days, and found that Li Meng was surrounded by all the military men brought out of the Lingshan Guard, and Ning Qiangui was also a native of Jiaozhou, and he also knew a little about these soldiers in the Lingshan Guard.

In the health center, especially in the military households in the Denglai area of Shandong, few families will let their children study for the imperial examination, and they are all farming and fishing.

Although this inspection is only to investigate smuggled salt, after all, he is an official, and he is also an official with a lot of oil and water, if he wants to be a good person, he really needs the help of a very experienced master counselor like himself. After Ning Qiangui weighed the pros and cons, he decided to take a risk and gamble, and knelt in front of Li Meng's door in the morning.

This is not a risk, Ning Qiangui pondered it very accurately, Li Meng really needs such a role that is familiar with business......

The next day, this Ning Qiangui became a master under the inspection of the Jiaozhou Salt Administration, if there were former acquaintances who saw Ning Qiangui, they would definitely be surprised, because Ning Qiangui used to be a servile face, and he always had a flattering smile on his face, although his appearance was also polite, but his sycophant appearance was very annoying. But from the time he was working under Li Meng, he was in a very solemn state.

Since there was someone who understood, Li Meng brought the question of income to ask, but when Master Ning heard that Li Meng had earned almost 10,000 taels of silver from last year to now, and 1,500 taels a month could be very sure, he immediately opened his mouth wide and was surprised.
