In the early morning, a noisy sound woke up Li Ling who was sleeping, and the people in the salt factory began another day's work.

In order to get together the fine salt that Uncle Yang asked for as soon as possible, he, Yang Ying and a group of guards lived in the salt farm.

The Wang family's salt farm rejected his suggestion to buy salt without hesitation, which made him, the eldest young master of the Li family, very unhappy, the Wang family couldn't get along with himself like this, and it seemed that he didn't take the friendship between the two families for so many years to heart.

The peers are enemies, the two salt farms are relatively close, and the Li family salt farm has always had a better business than the Wang family because of the more refined relationship between the salt, and the people in the two salt farms usually seem to be more harmonious, and the people in the Wang family salt farm still have some resentment.

Today, when I went to negotiate with them, I added a price of 10% to the other party, and the more than 100,000 catties of salt were not hastily produced by the Li family's salt farm within ten days.

"What, you want a markup? Do you know how much more silver taels Uncle Yang has to pay in this way? ”。 After listening to Li Ling's plan, Zhang Wu made a loud noise, and if he paid an extra 10% of the price, he would have to pay more than 10,000 catties of fine salt, what a huge amount!

Zhang Wu was born in a military family, and his first thought was to save expenses for the border army, and what he could save must be saved.

"Li, Brother Li, I'm afraid this won't work, all the expenses are planned, even if my father agrees, he doesn't have that much money!". Yang Ying still decided to remind her fiancé that although his father was in charge of the procurement of military supplies, he did not have the right to decide to use such a large amount of funds without authorization.

"I don't let Uncle Yang take the extra money, but the Li family will pay this money, at most we won't make money in this business, no matter what, we have to get the salt you need!"

Uncle Yang had already done them a great favor by coming to buy the fine salt from the salt field at this time, how could Li Ling still think about making his money and selling it at a lower price, even if the Li family supported the imperial court.

Zhang Wu saw that the other party did not want to harm their interests, so he did not speak, and raising the purchase price is the most effective way at present, so that he can get enough salt within the scheduled period.

"So thank you Brother Li!" Yang Ying is full of gratitude to her fiancé, and if she can't ship the salt back on time, her father will be held responsible.

"Young Master, it's not good, the Wang family's salt farm has been burned!". While the three of them were discussing, Hachi's father hurriedly ran over and told them bad news.

How so? The three of them were taken aback and ran out of the house one after another, only to find smoke rising from the northeast.

This is the edge of the sea, the land is sparsely populated, and there are only a few salt farms living nearby, and it is clear that something has happened to a salt factory in this situation.

"Escort Zhang, please take your subordinates to the gate to guard!" As soon as Yang Ying saw that something was wrong, she unceremoniously issued an order to Zhang Wu.

Knowing that it was the Japanese who attacked and disturbed the Wangjia Salt Farm, Li Ling hated it very much and was very cautious, even if the group of Japanese slaves did not come to the Li Family Salt Farm, they had to be prepared to take precautions.

"Uncle, you take Hachi to gather the young and strong laborers in the salt farm, and let them also help guard the gate. Don't let those brutes in, or we'll be in for a great sin!" ”。

Xiaoba's father stays here in the salt field all the year round, and naturally knows that the Japanese are not even as good as livestock/life, they burn, kill and loot all kinds of evil, and many salt works along the coast are destroyed after they are broken, and the owner of the salt field also ends up bankrupt.

There is no need to summon at all, when Li Ling came to the gate, there were already hundreds of young people gathered here, and Liu Er, the leader of the porters, was mobilizing everyone.

"We here and the Wangjia Salt Farm is one of the larger salt farms in this area, those gangs of Japanese robbers easily dare not provoke us, this time they were able to break through the Wangjia Salt Farm, it can be seen that they have made a lot of effort, later, maybe we will have to fight a tough battle, although we can't compare to those officers and soldiers with weapons, but we can't retreat, because behind us, are everyone's wives and children, if we don't resist, they will be in danger of their lives!"

Liu Er made a generous statement, this time is the real test, he couldn't help but glance at Zhang Wu, who led dozens of soldiers to stand in front of the gate, the long-term workers were eating the Li family's food, and the salt field gave them a place to shelter from the wind and rain.

"Young Master, military masters, we must not take the initiative to attack!" Xiao Ba's father parted the crowd and walked in front of Li Ling and Zhang Wu, proposing.

Now the enemy situation is unknown, but you can't go out to find death, if you encounter a small group of Japanese bandits, it's okay, if you meet a large group of people, the combat power of the Japanese is obvious to all, a little careless, it is not easy to return smoothly.

All of them knew the gravity of the matter, and they just stood quietly at the gate, waiting for the enemy to attack.

The Wangjia Salt Farm was broken in this way, the flames were flying, and the people who wanted to come inside also suffered, Liu Er's heart was like a knife, remembering that he and a group of brothers often helped the Wangjia Salt Farm in the past, and they could be regarded as having some friendship with each other, and his tears couldn't help but stay.

Originally, the Li family salt factory was also going to be suspended, if it wasn't for the eldest young master who brought people over in time to close the siege, I am afraid that he will also work in the Wang family salt factory, and his brothers are afraid that they will not be able to escape the doom.

The atmosphere at the gate was terrifyingly silent, Li Ling felt that this time was the most difficult moment since he crossed over, and after everyone stood there for half an hour, a dozen or so people finally walked towards the salt field.

"It's a wolf, it's a wolf!" The distance was closer, Liu Er suddenly shouted, his body trembled involuntarily, it was obvious that he was quite afraid in his heart.

"Isn't it just a dozen people, so scary?" As soon as Zhang Wu saw that more than a dozen people had come, his heart suddenly relaxed, and the dozens of people under him were all border troops, and their combat effectiveness was strong, so he didn't take these dozen people to heart at all.

"Carry a ladder up the wall and shoot with a bow and arrow first!". Li Ling saw that the guards all had quivers behind their backs, so he issued an order.

Liu Er also understood the intention of the eldest young master, and they found a few ladders and went down to the wall at a very fast speed.

"Eldest prince, don't worry about this battle!" Zhang Wu made a color to a soldier beside him, and these few would-be robbers still dared to attack the salt farm? This is a great opportunity for God to give himself prestige.

The soldier understood, hurriedly took a step forward and opened the gate with his companions.

Zhang Wu took the lead out of the gate, and the soldiers around him all followed him.

"Shoot with arrows first, shoot with arrows!". Yang Ying suddenly shouted loudly, the salt field had long been prepared to resist the robbers, the courtyard wall was very firm, if they hid on it and shot, these dozen people would not be able to come easily.

Zhang Wu is too reckless, it seems that he has to suggest to his father, he lacks calm thinking, and is not suitable to be the leader of the guards.

Yang Ying hurriedly chased after her, she hurriedly took out the quiver from a soldier and shot it at the Wako, and immediately one of the Wako was hit by an arrow in the shoulder.

The Wako hesitated, and without pulling it out, he staggered towards the saltworks.

As soon as she saw that she had succeeded, she shot a few more arrows, and then retreated behind the gate, and now the situation is unknown, but this is not the time to fight.

Dozens of border troops dealt with more than a dozen Japanese invaders, Li Ling originally thought that Zhang Wu would be able to deal with it, but he did not expect that as soon as the two sides handed over, the result surprised him.

After being surrounded, instead of falling into a disappointed situation, they aroused the heart of the trapped beasts, and one by one they waved the big swords impermeable, and three or five soldiers could not get close, and the two sides were evenly matched, and the fight was difficult to solve for a while.

Seeing that Zhang Wu fell into passivity, Yang Ying's heart moved, Zhang's father was a member of the border pass, Zhang Wu really had an accident, and he couldn't explain it.

She just wanted to go out to help, but was stopped by Li Ling.

Now the situation is urgent, and I am afraid that she alone will not be able to play the ideal role in the past.

"Liu Er, you lead some of the porters over!" Li Ling gave orders to Liu Er. His porters were also more than a hundred people, and they were so powerful that if they went out, they would be able to solve the problem and win the battle.

What Li Ling didn't expect was that Liu Er, who was usually quite bold, was silent at this time, he was holding a homemade long knife, his eyes flashed, and he kept staring at the ground, and he hesitated at the moment of crisis.

The guards were engaged in a scuffle with the pirates, and some of them began to slowly approach the salt works, and even two or three were about to approach the gate, and their clothes were stained red with blood.

"Liu Er, if you let the Japanese invaders rush over, you and your brothers will die, and it will also affect your family, where to go, you make your own decisions!" Li Ling was a little disappointed in these porters at this time, and he gave Xiaoba's father a look and asked him to be ready to mobilize the others.

"Don't worry, no matter who it is, as long as they are injured in this operation, I will definitely help them treat, if they unfortunately die in battle, my Li family will help him take care of his family, and will definitely not let their family be left alone!"

Li Ling said loudly to the long-term workers of the salt farm, if you want the other party to work hard, you must let them have no worries.

"If you've got it figured out, then go out with me!".

Li Ling first expressed his attitude, and he also went out with everyone to meet the enemy.

Li Er no longer hesitated, but the group of porters were not ambiguous, Liu Er took the lead and took the lead in running towards the two widows who approached the gate.
