Hearing Weng Hong's words, Ziyu smiled, "Senior Weng seems to be surprised. ”

"Of course not...... Weng Hong glanced at the look in his eyes, and his face was extremely calm, "I just subconsciously feel that this matter may be a little troublesome." Have you found your guards? ”

Just when Scarlet Jade came back, she saw that there was no other person behind the two, and said worriedly, "Sister and Auntie, didn't you find the guard?" ”

Ziyu shook his head and looked at Weng Hong, "I found it, but their horse was lost, so they came over, and it will take a while to arrive." They did not want to go to the county jail, but they did not enter in the name of human traffickers, but we found something suspicious. I don't know what Weng's predecessors have to say? ”

Ah Wen crossed his eyes and looked at the old man without moving.

The old man turned around and patted the ingots gently, "The old man has retired to the rivers and lakes for many years, and he has long ignored foreign affairs, he knows how, and he doesn't know what?" ”

Ziyu ran to the old man's side briskly, with a shy smile that made people feel good, "Senior Weng just thinks it's fresh, let's just listen to it." ”

Weng Hong glanced at Crimson.

That's it, just say it casually, besides, after a while, he will take his grandson back to the valley to fish, who likes to take care of these things.

It's also a little embarrassed to say it, Weng Hong said slightly cramped, "The old man hasn't been out of the valley for many years, and he can't help but have some special habits when he comes out." Everywhere you go, you want to go to the yamen! "Where is the god of thieves in the rivers and lakes famous, that is, it is the yamen, the prefect, and the dignitaries who specialize in stealing, where he can't go, he has been to the palace, but he has not been discovered!

He hadn't been active for a long time, so he wanted to go and see it when he came out.

"It's a coincidence." Weng Hong smiled, "Two days ago, I went to the county government of She County to take a look, but I didn't want to see a friend with a familiar face, I was embarrassed to do it, and the old man left!" ”

Ziyu's face changed when he heard this.

In the yamen, there are acquaintances of Weng's predecessors? The people who intersected with the reputation of Weng's predecessors back then, including the people who Weng's predecessors are now worshipping in the hermitage of Juexian Valley, although they are famous in the rivers and lakes, they are definitely not good people in the rivers and lakes.

I wanted to ask again, but Weng Hong pretended to be surprised and approached Yuanbao, "What, good grandson, are you hungry?" Howler! Grandpa, I'll take you to find something to eat. ”

When Scarlet Jade heard this, she hurriedly hugged the child, "Third Daddy, I'll come." ”

Then Scarlet Jade glanced at Ziyu and followed Weng Hong to the kitchen.

Let the maid blow the cold paste, and Scarlet Yu said, "Daddy has already said it, why didn't he say it more clearly?" ”

Weng Hong shook his head, "The rivers and lakes have rules, and I am not a good person myself." The point is already my maximum, if they are found out, they will retaliate against me, there is no peace in the Absolute String Valley, I am already old, and I still want to have some peaceful birthdays, but also for the sake of your face, mention them. Again, I'm afraid you'll be in trouble too. ”

Scarlet Jade bowed her head after hearing this, "Thank you, Third Daddy." ”

Weng Hong waved his hand, he didn't like these false etiquette, but it was a pity that his daughter-in-law was born as a slave and maid of everyone, and it was still like this for so many years, but it was this serious appearance that could abide by the bottom line, and he could restrain his unobtrusive adopted son!

Ziyu and Ah Wen sat in the white jade building for a while, and when they saw Scarlet Jade come out, they looked at Scarlet Jade with a blank look, obviously wanting to find out more from the old man's mouth.

Scarlet Jade shook her head, "Shu Scarlet Jade can't help my sister explore more, the rivers and lakes have rules and regulations, but the third father has mentioned it, which means that this matter is not to be ignored, if my sister and aunt want to interfere, I must be careful." ”

"It's okay!" Ziyu hooked his lips, "There are some things that are not forced, if there is really a huge inside story in it, we will definitely prepare and then take action." ”

Crimson nodded, "In a short period of time, Crimson Jade will not leave here, if your sister needs help, you can come to Scarlet Jade." ”

Ziyu bent the corner of his eye.

The three guards rushed to Guanshan Town, and it was already a stick of incense.

Ziyu said goodbye to Scarlet Jade, and after confirming the residence of the three guards with the three guards, he ordered, "I lost a bracelet a few days ago, and the bracelet was given by the queen mother in the palace. The bracelet has been off for three or four days, there are not many rich people in Guanshan Town, the bracelet is not very easy to take off, it will inevitably hover for a while, if you have news, get it back as soon as possible. ”

"Yes."

After ordering everything, Ziyu and Awen returned to Jimo Village.

At this moment, Jimo Village is unusually lively.

As soon as the two entered the village, they saw the oncoming Ah Shui and said in surprise, "Ah Wen! You got the salt pans, and the salt really came out! Snow white! It's much faster than we fry salt! ”

Ziyu was slightly startled, and hurriedly took Awen directly to the field.

saw that many people in the village were surrounding the salt pond that Ah Wen and Ah Lang had finally figured out, "Tsk! I heard that the salt outside is much more expensive than what we sell here, if we can make mass production of salt, and directly take the salt to sell it in a farther place, we can also return to the capital! ”

The village chief stood at the edge of the salt pond, his eyes were happy and a little embarrassed.

Seeing Ah Wen and Ziyu coming back, the village chief coughed heavily.

The people of the village fell silent.

There are not many people in Jimo Village, there are only a dozen households, no more than 100 people, a family in Jimo Village only has one acre of land, there were many people in the past, but over the years, these lands are useless, some families have also left Jimo Village, these lands have also been sold back to the imperial court, in exchange for some silver taels, the existing land, are the village head to the county to apply for approval.

But two days ago, Awen also said that he was looking for someone to borrow land, but everyone didn't give it, and he felt that a good land could not be wasted in vain, and it was put there, if the court was going to repair the dock that day and wanted to buy land, the price would be higher.

Ah Lang and Qiao'er are also up and down in their hearts.

There is no salt in this field, it can be seen at a glance, and they can't hide it.

"Brother Awen, everyone will see it later, and now I want to follow this salt pan together." The drawings of the salt pan were drawn by Ah Wen, this salt pan is not tightly just reclaimed, there are holes in it, which can be filled with seawater, how to hit this hole, how many holes, where to hit, why? These are all made by Arvin.

Ah Wen didn't think it was anything, anyway, it was just to change Jimo Village to make money at the beginning.

Approaching the salt pond, because the sun is big today, when Ah Lang and Ah Fang were pressing the ground, the salt quickly came out of the ground pressed two days ago, and with a gentle handful, you can hold the snow-white salt crystals. After careful calculation, an acre of land can produce a lot of salt in an hour, and it will cost at least dozens of catties under the sunniest day of the day. There was mud on the salt, but it was much faster than before.

Ah Wen said directly, "The drawings are in Ah Lang's place, if you want to get them, you can get them directly, but this salt field can't get back to its original during this time." Near the sea, the prices are very cheap. ”

"Awen, it was our vision before, so it's better to say it directly." The village chief came hard this time.

Ziyu was originally going to wait for the salt to come out, get the restaurant of the scarlet jade for inspection, if you can change the first try to send it to the restaurant under the name of the scarlet jade, the price will definitely be cheaper than the local market price, calculate the manpower and calculate the distance, the cost of the road, the first few times Awen can run in person, the truth is considerable, and the next must need more manpower, as Ziyu said before, Awen said, "You signed a contract with me, and said to the outside world that this salt pond land should be rented by me and you, and you were hired as helpers." On the first few trips, I personally went to run the merchants, and if I made a profit, when I came back, I took 30% of the salt from each family's field and the total profit. ”

Thirty percent, in fact, is not high, after all, the biggest problem is the way to sell salt.

"Sign the deed, Awen, you also know that most of the people in the village are illiterate, let alone sign their own names. Besides, everyone trusts you, so don't bother! The village chief said.

"The deed is signed just in case, if the salt pond profits, there will be people who are red-eyed, and then you and your husband have signed the deed, and no one will dare to buy and sell with you." Ziyu spoke, "You are kind to my husband, no matter what, my husband will not deceive you, but if my husband leaves here one day, although this salt pond is profitable, it is a question whether you can keep it." ”

There was silence in the village, realizing what it meant.

After a while, he said, "Okay! Awen, do whatever you say, and listen to your piece of land in my family. If you don't want to, you can refuse now. The village chief took the lead.

"Good! Isn't it just a delay for a few days, but a few days ago I had some silver, but these days are still delayed. ”

The voices of promise rose and fell.

No one objected, and Arwen said, "I have a request." ”

After the crowd fell silent.

"Please don't make a public announcement about this matter, except for the people of Jimo Village, outsiders must not know about the affairs of Yantian. After the first batch of salt came out, it was poured into the salt pan with seawater, and the salt pan could not be moved for a short time. ”

Ziyu was puzzled by this request, but everyone also agreed.

After all, it is very likely that Jimo Village will embark on a new way to completely change the life of Jimo Village.

After returning home, Ziyu said, "If you really make a profit, will you ask for too much silver?" Will this make you have a gap with the village name of Jimo Village? Moreover, there are many fishermen in the nearby sea villages, and it is impossible to hide the rumors seriously. ”

"I know that when the time comes, I'll use that 30% of the profits." Of course, Arwen knew that he didn't want to keep the news closed, he just wanted to delay.

Ziyu blinked.

"I want to lease everything I can from the nearby coastal villages after I have earned the money." Arwen hesitated for a moment, "You can earn more this way." ”

"Are we so short of silver?" Although she also had this idea, but Ah Wen asked for thirty percent, which is indeed a bit much, after all, it is the villagers themselves who will contribute to the land at that time.

Arwen looked at Ziyu and replied very firmly.

"Missing!"
