He raised his eyebrows, glanced at Chu Nian as if he was probing, and saw that there was not much surprise on Chu Nian's face, and there was a certain number in his heart, and he seemed to smile and said: "Private salt is not a product from formal channels, and it can't be sold at a high price, official salt is different, and this official has already said that this is for the benefit of the people, but it will never let you suffer too much." ”

Chu Nian frowned slightly, "Fifty...... One stone? “

"Naturally, it's five hundred wen and one stone."

Chu Nian couldn't help but widen his eyes, this dog official dared to ask for a price, five hundred wen and one stone, which was not such a high price in Daliang.

The implication is that all good goods are monopolized by his family?

Ming Xiu on the side also had a bad look, Lord Wang saw it, and thought that the two of them were dissatisfied with the price, so he had to say a little impatiently: "What? Is this too expensive? Then put a little pressure on you, and if you are willing to buy more, how about counting you four hundred and fifty cents a stone? ”

Just as Lord Wang looked at the tall back angrily, it happened that the man turned his head slightly sideways, leaving only a corner of his eye that did not leave the whites of his eyes, with a knife-like face and thin lips pursed into a line, with a bit of amazement, but also inexplicably terrifying.

"I'll need to go back and think about it, if Lord Wang is not in a hurry."

Lord Wang stood in place and looked at the back of the woman who seemed to be easy to talk at this moment, and remembered the smile just now—although she was smiling, she also had a bit of a terrible coldness, like a poisonous insect that confused its prey with its beautiful appearance, which made people can't help but be frightened but can't find the slightest fault.

"It's just two businessmen, how can they scare Lord Ben like this......"

Ming Xiu's gaze swept over her face that seemed to be a little distressed, and said firmly, "Aren't you also angry." ”

Hearing this, Chu Nian suddenly remembered Lord Wang, who had just asked for a price, if it was really as he said, there was no good salt in it, then all the salt fields in this large part of Beihai would be monopolized by them, saying that it was for the benefit of the people, in fact, this stone of 500 wen, I'm afraid that in the hands of salt farmers, there is not 20 wen, right?

Ming Xiu's eyes flashed slightly, and after a while, he nodded slightly, and saw Chu Nian looking up at the clear blue sky with no clouds, and after a while, he pursed his red lips and walked towards the outside of the city with Ming Xiu.

"The king sent it?"

Chu Nian glanced at Ming Xiu with some surprise, and after a while, he couldn't help laughing, "This Lord Wang is still a little bit of an IQ?" ”

At this moment, there was a sudden sound of uniform footsteps in front of them, and the two of them suddenly stopped.

Chu Nian and the two glanced at each other, dodged and hid behind the trees on both sides of the path, and looked at the end of the rugged path not far away, and sure enough, a team of people dressed in coarse linen clothes but seemed to be walking out slowly from that side.

Ming Xiu wrinkled his nose slightly, his eyes flashed slightly, and his voice was lowered: "People who have been on the battlefield? ”

"I think I've killed a lot of enemies." Ming Xiu lowered his head, and looked at Chu Nian who fell into his arms at some point, and his thin lips hooked slightly.

The man at the head seemed to feel the gaze coming from the forest, and a pair of shining eyes turned around in an instant, looking intently in the direction of Chu Nian and the others, making Chu Nian and the others look stunned, and hurriedly hid them, and did not dare to look at that side again.

A pair of eyes with a bit of scrutiny suddenly appeared in front of Chu Nian's eyes, followed by a cold shout, "Who are you?" ”

Ming Xiu was calm, his figure was in front of Chu Nian, and his eyes looked directly at the young man in front of him calmly, "Two salt merchants passing by, heard the news, I heard that there are a few good salt pans here?" ”

The young man looked at Ming Xiu with a little vigilance in his eyes, and his subordinates didn't know when to follow, and the five of them surrounded Chu Nian and the others, obviously blocking the retreat of the two.

Ming Xiu looked back, glanced at the villain behind him, and saw that Chu Nian had no intention of objecting, so before those subordinates stretched out their hands to push him, he took Chu Nian's little hand and quickly followed the young man in front of him.

The young man glanced at Chu Nian with some surprise, and after a while, he nodded lightly with confidence, "Right now, the dog official is in charge, if a village doesn't have one or two salt fields with private salt, I'm afraid that the whole village won't be able to survive the New Year." ”

Hearing this, the two of them tightened their brows together, and saw Chu Nian looking at the young man with some doubts, "Then why does the eldest brother still tell us about this?" Aren't you afraid that we'll get the word out about it? ”

It's already so serious? Chu Nian frowned, and saw that Fang Mingxiu's eyes flashed slightly, "But aren't you afraid that we are spies sent by the prefect?" ”

Seeing that he confidently turned his head and didn't look at Chu Nian and Ming Xiu again, a flash of surprise flashed in Ming Xiu's eyes, and even if he was thoughtful, after a while, he saw a flash of clarity in his eyes, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his voice was low: "Deserter? ”

Ming Xiu protected Chu Nian behind him, and calmly looked at the young man in front of him who was looking at him vigilantly.

Chu Nian, who was back to back with Ming Xiu, looked at the spear that was close at hand, and a trace of inexplicable strangeness suddenly rose in his heart, and at this time, he saw Ming Xiu on the side raise his eyes slightly, staring at the young man in front of him with extremely dangerous eyes.

"You kid, you don't have a small tone......"
