"Do you know that young man?" Hua Yueling asked Wu Liang when she saw the carriage whizzing by.

"The boy is from the infirmary. Wu Liang said with a smile.

"Medical hall?" Hua Yueling was stunned, "Is that the medical hall you just talked about?"

"Exactly!" Wu Liang snapped his fingers and said with a smile, "This young man is not dressed in disguise, it seems that Bai Yutang entered the city in a high-profile manner this time, this is to startle the snake!"

"Surprise the snake?"

Sooner or later, the water in Lin'an City will become more and more muddy, and there are countless spies from various forces. This Bai Yutang had a time difference before, and wanted to inquire about some news here, but now he has entered the city in a high-profile manner, and he must have obtained something. We still have too few chips in our hands, it's not worth putting them right with him, besides, maybe we don't have any conflict of interest with him, maybe he will help us when the time comes!"

"Help us, Bai Yutang is obviously sent by the emperor......"

Wu Liang touched Hua Yueling's head and said with a smile: "Don't look at the surface of things, if our ultimate goal is not the same as his, then we can form a win-win situation." Let's see who the real opponent is!"

"Oh yes! Hua Yueling was stunned for a moment and said, "You always say that the emperor is ready to carve up our Haoyue Earl's Mansion, but who are our opponents?"

"A lot!" Wu Liang said, "Now that you have asked, then I will list our potential opponents with you." ”

"First of all, it's our neighbor, the Jedi God Palace. However, this Absolute God Palace, as a land snake, must have its own ideas, our Earl's Mansion has fallen, with Lin Xiuyuan's means, it will definitely be enough to take down the entire Lin'an City, and everyone else is a younger brother. But now they are in a hurry to fight, and they probably have their own ideas. ”

"Lin Xiuyuan?" Hua Yueling laughed and said, "You misread him, right? I think you're mistaken. ”

"You have all been deceived by him, the Absolute God Palace's plan is very big, although I can guess a little, but I won't tell you more, you can't understand what he said. ”

"Hmph, you dislike me stupid again!" Hua Yueling was unhappy.

"How can there be!" Wu Liang hurriedly exclaimed, "That's just a conjecture." There's no need to say it. ”

"No!

"Okay, good!" Wu Liang said with a helpless face, "Then I'll say it, from my point of view, Lin Xiuyuan wants to be an official." ”

"Being an official? A person from the sect is not allowed to be an official! This is the law set by Emperor Gaozu of the Great Yuan, so how can Lin Xiuyuan be an official?"

"A person from the sect can't be an official, can't he be a member of the sect? As long as enough benefits are transferred, this Lin Xiuyuan will definitely be able to be an official. The provisions of the law are simply used to restrain the weak, and they are nothing to the strong. ”

"You're right......" Hua Yueling fell into deep thought, "Then what does he want to do as an official?"

"How do I know that...... Even he wants to be an official, I guess. Wu Liang spread his hands and said, "I'm not a roundworm in his stomach." ”

"You don't even know that. I thought you were so smart!" Hua Yueling glanced at Wu Liang and said sarcastically.

"I ......" Wu Liang looked helpless, "Forget it, it's good if you're happy." ”

"By the way, what about the others?" asked Hua Yueling, who was very interested in this.

"Then there is the owner of a small manor two hundred miles east of Lin'an City-Viscount Chang'an. ”

"Viscount Chang'an?" Hua Yueling chewed on the name, "This is reasonable, this Viscount Chang'an was one of the first people to hand over his private soldiers, and the emperor also arranged his two sons into the army in order to show his generosity. Coupled with the fact that he is very close to us, it is a great benefit. ”

"That's right. Wu Liang nodded, "What you said is right, but there is one thing you didn't say, in fact, the maximum benefit that Viscount Chang'an can obtain from us is also very important, so he has to go against our Earl's Palace!"

"What is it?" Hua Yueling was stunned, she really didn't know about this.

"Actually, I also found out about this after reading the information stored in our Earl's Palace. Wu Liang said, "This Viscount of Chang'an is a subordinate!"

"What happened to the ministers? At that time, in the battle to destroy Xu, the emperor divided a lot of ministers!"

"Indeed, it stands to reason that as a subordinate, you should be wise and protect yourself, but the original Viscount of Chang'an was very active, and he also participated in the battle for the heir!"

"This Viscount Chang'an is so bold!"

"It's really a big boldness, this Viscount Chang'an is not smart, he actually stood on the wrong team, and mistakenly followed the second prince who was lonely at the time. ”

"He's really stupid enough ......"

"Yes, after our emperor ascended the throne at that time, for various reasons, he did not deal with their gang of henchmen who followed the second prince, and after this Viscount Chang'an left a life, he was still restless and started to resell salt and iron!"

"Reselling salt and iron? This is not so bold, this is bold!"

"That's right, I guess the emperor doesn't know about this yet, because he will even resell salt and iron to the Qiang Kingdom!"

The lack of salt in the Qiang country is a well-known thing!

"This is a collaborator!" said Kazuki's expression.

"Of course! Now that the treasury of Chang'an County is in short supply of salt and iron, he Viscount Chang'an can't escape from it! So he is thinking about how to fill this hole!"

"So he set his sights on our Haoyue Earl's Mansion?" Hua Yueling remembered that the Earl's Mansion had always had a monopoly on salt and iron, so there was a large amount of salt and iron in the warehouse, and she couldn't help but know in her heart.

"Exactly!" Wu Liang bowed slightly.

"But how do you know this?" Kazuki Ling couldn't help but ask as he remembered this incident while being angry.

"Naturally, I saw it from the accounts!" Wu Liang said, "In the past, our Earl's Mansion had the right to monopolize salt and iron, so we sold the salt and iron business in the entire Jiangnan Province, but I suddenly found that the shipment of salt and iron in recent years was one percent less than in previous years!" Maybe this kind of thing won't attract attention in normal times, but I did keep an eye on it, because salt and iron are necessities of life, and although our Earl's Court can deal in iron tools, it can only sell farm tools, and farm tools have a service life, not to mention salt, so the annual consumption of salt and iron should be about the same. I hurriedly checked out the salt and iron application records of various counties in recent years, and found that the quota of Chang'an County in recent years has been much higher than in previous years!"
