Chapter 416: The Emperor's Lackey

"And the old man who just came from your side, but he came out of the palace, are you really the news?"

Ji Baifeng's eyes had a touch of exploration in them, and Song Anqian's heart had already begun to have some doubts.

The things she did before would never be hidden from the old mama.

"I've said it all at that, if you think there's anything wrong, you don't believe it."

After Ji Baifeng finished speaking, he got up cleanly and left the map, leaving the broken teacups in the room, faintly showing the anger of the master.

"You go and gather some of the famous local salt merchants together for me."

Since he has promised the emperor this matter, he must do it.

"We haven't dealt with these people for a long time, so why do we suddenly want to gather them together, and what kind of name do we have?"

Lu Ye's tone was a little puzzled.

"Do what I say."

Ji Baifeng's eyes were thick, this was more urgent than any previous time to talk about business, and the restaurant was full of people, but which of these people was Huaguan Yupei.

I don't know Boss Ji, what do you mean by letting us come over this time? We don't have any business with each other, and we don't have any cooperation with each other. ”

The person who spoke was called Zhang Li, and he was a well-known salt boss in the neighborhood.

As long as he speaks, the salt sellers below him are also obediently listening.

"I know that everyone does have some important things to discuss, and I heard that everyone's business has been blocked one after another recently."

After Ji Baifeng read this sentence, he observed everyone's expressions, and sure enough, a few small salt sellers showed some embarrassed expressions on their faces.

"Speaking of which, it's all the people of the imperial court, and they don't know what kind of reason they use, and they are now deducting our taxes."

When everyone mentioned this matter, they also scoffed.

"Now everyone understands a truth, since ancient times, the people have not fought with officials, do you really want to fight with the emperor, and the net will be broken?"

Ji Baifeng examined everyone, giving birth to a sense of crisis in everyone's hearts.

"What do you mean by this, I understand today, you just set up a Hongmen banquet and came here on behalf of an emperor to persuade us to hand over the sale of salt."

Zhang Li's face was very ugly, and a row of tables stood up.

"Everyone is in business, and only one emperor wants to take back this right, wouldn't it be a way for a few of us to get rich, and force us to starve to death."

said indignantly, who doesn't know that this one sells salt is a big deal, and this family that eats can do without salt.

"I mean, as long as you are willing to cooperate with the emperor now, you will naturally get some benefits from it, but if the emperor takes away this power, you will have nothing."

The reason why Ji Baifeng agreed was also to give these people a way to live.

"You don't say these high-sounding words here, you just admit it directly, you are the lackey sent by the emperor, it is absolutely impossible to convince us of this matter, you go back directly and tell the emperor."

Zhang Li slapped the table and said that he left directly, and everyone saw that the person in charge had already left, and they all followed with bad faces.

"Childe, why did you suddenly have such an idea, so how could these people easily hand over such rights?"

It was absolutely impossible for Lu Ye to hear these words, thinking that the emperor had spent so much effort at the beginning, but he couldn't make these people relax.

"Get out."

Ji Baifeng held his head with a headache, knowing that the emperor's patience was limited, and if he didn't solve it earlier, everyone in the family would be in trouble.

"What's going on, I know if I'm busy here and haven't had lunch, so let's come over and have something to eat."

Su Muli fell from the sky like a savior, holding some food in his hand, and put it on the table as if no one was around.

"I don't have much appetite, you can eat it yourself."

Ji Baifeng sat on the stool a little decadently, looking at the state of the whole person.

"The two of us are husband and wife, can you tell me what is going on now? Make you what you are. ”

There was a hint of worry in Su Muli's tone, since Ji Baifeng came back from the palace, there was something wrong with the state of the whole person.

"The emperor hopes that I can take back this right to sell salt."

Ji Baifeng stood next to the window, and Zhang Li was not the kind of person who could easily let go of his mouth when he had limited time.

"Did you call these people together to ask about it?"

Su Muli's tone was very relaxed, when she came, she saw that many people came out, and their faces were not very good, and now she thinks about it because of this incident.

"Well, it's just that no one wants to contribute to the one transaction they make money."

"Then you didn't think that this matter could be solved by other means."

Su Muli said comfortingly.

"What's the solution?"

Ji Baifeng frowned and asked curiously.

"I used to think you were smart, but now it doesn't look like that."

Su Mu left and said jokingly.

"Come over here and eat these things first, and I'll tell you, how should I solve it?"

Su Muli pointed to the food that had been placed on the table.

Ji Baifeng walked out, he ate quickly, but in a while, the things on the table were almost finished.

"Actually, we can think of some other ways, if it is a serious problem, then we can naturally take back this right to trafficking."

Su Muli blinked his eyes mischievously.

"This is looking for trouble, in this regard, your lady is still very good."

Su Muli patted his chest and said with reassurance, if it is to find a person's benefits, it may be a little difficult, if it is to find a mistake, it is too simple.

"You mean to make them have a problem with these oils and salts?"

Ji Baifeng repeated, his eyes shining again.

"Of course, if there is a problem, then everything will become logical, and no one wants to hand over their own business, so we will find a way to take it back ourselves."

Su Muli had a look of affirmation in his tone, and he probably had already made a decision in his heart.

The time has come when the moon is dark and the wind is high and the night must do great things.

The two of them sneakily touched the courtyard wall and quietly walked in.

"Fortunately, your martial arts are strong, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to enter at all because of the heavy guards outside."

Su Muli looked around at the huge courtyard here in surprise, but he didn't know where to put the oil and salt.
