Chapter Seventy-Two: Zang Ba
Liu Qi didn't care about others and his expression, and after giving the order, he said something for Huang San and came to the back of the cottage.
There are a few low-rise huts in this area, and the security was the strictest when entering before.
"County gentleman, it's inside, there are some men and women imprisoned in this house, and they should have been taken captive by bandits.
This house, the people who store it, are actually a lot of salt! ”
Huang San was on the side, reporting in a low voice, Liu Qi bowed his head slightly, and he was really relieved.
As he expected, this cold mountain thief really involves secrets.
The bandits on the cold mountain were really not ordinary bandits, but they actually participated in the smuggling of salt. When the battle just now, the thief got an arrow from behind, and it was clear.
And although Chang is small, the water is extremely deep!
When I entered the house, I opened the bamboo piers, and they were all coarse salt in sacks.
The price of salt in the Han Dynasty is about 800 yuan per stone, and as far as the eye can see, the transaction volume involved in this is about 400,000 yuan!
"Huang San, let people seal all this private salt."
Liu Qishou took it out of the sack, looked at the coarse salt inside, and saw that there was a lot of sand and gravel in it, so he didn't continue to look through it.
According to his judgment, these table salts, with a little bit of moisture, are obviously produced locally in Donghai County, but I am afraid that many local clans are involved.
When I walked out, I suddenly saw several men with loose hair, running from afar, and bowed deeply to Liu Qi: "In the next earthquake, thank you for the county's life-saving grace!"
If there is no county ruler to lead the troops to suppress the bandits, we may be imprisoned and die for this bandit! ”
Liu Qi stopped and looked, and saw that the middle-aged man at the head was forty years old, polite and courteous, and his mind moved, and said: "It is the duty of the official to pacify the bandits in Dingding County.
By the way, are you from the Mi clan? ”
Mi Zhen bowed down and said: "The county monarch has a sharp eye, two months ago, he was entrusted by the clan to transport a boatload of cloth, and he wanted to go to Peiguo, but he met bandits on the way to rob ......."
After Mi Zhen finished speaking, Liu Qi bowed his head lightly and said: "You can rest assured, the bandits in the cold mountains have been exterminated for me, and in the next year, I should also recruit village guards to exterminate the bandits in other places in Changxi."
At that time, the territory of Changxi will surely return to the tranquility of the past.
Mi is Xuzhou Dajia, such as Chang consideration, when welcome Mi business exchanges.
Huang San, let's look for a boat, and then wait for us to prepare some dry food for Mi Jun.
Liu and help Mi Jun, you can have a smooth journey! ”
In addition to Mi Zhen, there are also the rest of the merchants, Liu Qimo does not give food and boat equipment, but he is extremely benevolent.
When Mi Zhen led a few entourages, carried them on his back, walked on the boat, and returned to the figure of people coming and going on the shore, he said alone: "When I was last year, the county magistrate of Changxi was still vacant.
According to the investigation of the township guard, this county magistrate of Changxi has just arrived more than 20 days ago.
It can first destroy the cold bandits in order to restore water transportation, which shows that it is very visionary. ”
Mi Zhen had a pair of apricot eyes, narrowed slightly, and read softly: "In addition, this newly arrived county magistrate of Changxi has no contempt for us and other businessmen, and there is a little respect, which is really chic!"
Today's catastrophe will not die, and all the things in this matter, after returning home, should talk to my brother! ”
Since Wang Liang robbed on the waterway, after learning that Mi Zhen was a member of the Dashang Mi clan, he was worried about the Mi clan's reputation in Xuzhou, Wang Liang never dared to kill, nor did he dare to speak out, but only imprisoned.
At this point, Mi Zhen and others were finally given a chance to live, so that they could be saved and escape today.
Flowing down the river, Mi Zhen originally wanted to go to Lanling and return to Qu County.
It's just that I haven't been walking for half an hour, and I saw more than ten ships, heading upstream, obviously heading to Changshu County.
When the two sides approached, Mi Zhen's eyelids were one, and the cabin was full of more than a dozen heads.
On the leading ship, two tall men were talking.
One of them, with a thick waist and broad shoulders, pierced eyes, was armed with a spear. The other man was rough-looking, with a bow and arrows with him.
These two people, with Mi Zhen's experience in going south and north, should be mighty people and not easy to provoke.
Noticing Mi Zhen and his party, the boat quickly approached.
After inquiry, I learned that Mi Zhen was rescued from the cold mountain thieves, and he was released by the county magistrate of Changxi, and then he was released.
When the two boats left by mistake, Mi Zhen vaguely heard one of the voices, it was the big man with a bow and arrows who said: "This time I can behead the thief who escaped, thanks to my feet!"
If the county gentleman can see the foot, he will be overjoyed! ”
Mi Zhenxin said: The newly arrived county magistrate of Changxi, I am slightly familiar, judging by his age, not as good as a weak crown? Could it be the son of a family? The two of them are extraordinary, and they can deal with the subordinates of this Changxi county magistrate, and they can see their ability.
Mi Zhen's thoughts gradually drifted away, looking at the rising morning sun, not knowing what he was thinking.
And in the cold mountain bandit village a few miles away.
Liu Qi ordered everyone to clean the docks, camps and other places of battle, and buried all the corpses in the back mountain to prevent the spread of plague, and the wounded were bandaged and treated on the spot. For dozens of prisoners, Liu Qi ordered Li Zhan to escort them to Changshu City in batches by boat.
He did not immediately rush back to the city, but stood in the hilly area in the middle of the cold mountain, looking down on the waterway and the mountain road.
With this location, it can be said that it is the best place in the entire Changshu County.
If the thief Wang Liang is more bold and builds another camp on the south side of the opposite bank, he can choke the throat of the north and south.
This time he successfully took down the Hanshan bandits, Liu Qizi would not withdraw like this.
He had planned to build two camps on the basis of the hill occupied by Wang Liang before, just in time for the resettlement of the villagers and the recruitment of troops in the future. In this way, the main road of prosperity can also be firmly controlled in the hands.
This side was looking down at the lining room, and Huang San suddenly came to report that Xu had returned from the case.
Time has passed, and it has not been three hours, and Xu Case has come back so soon?
Liu Qi walked down the cottage road, and in less than two quarters of an hour, he arrived at the small wharf built here.
When he looked at the people on the shore and the head in the cabin, Liu Qi couldn't help frowning.
After Xu Case saw Liu Qi coming, he hurriedly stepped forward to report: "County Jun, with the help of Zang Jun and others who passed by, Xu Case did not disgrace his mission, and all the bandits who escaped were awarded!" The first level has been brought back! ”
Zang Jun?
Liu Qi immediately looked at the big man who was talking to someone in front of him.
Seeing Liu Qi's doubts on his face, Xu Zhi added in a low voice: "It is exactly what the county gentleman said to me two months ago, I am waiting for the heroic man of Taishan County!" ”
Saying this, Liu Qi immediately reacted.
It turns out that this is Zang Ba!
Zang Ba, originally a native of Taishan County, two years ago, in order to save his father, he became famous in the place and became a hero in the market.
At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Yu Taoqian was appointed as the pastor of Xuzhou, and Zang Ba was called to serve under his account. After many twists and turns, he fell to Cao Cao, defeated Han Dang every dragon, and broke Sun Quan in the nest, but he made great achievements.
Today's Zang Ba is still young, and at first glance, he is a little arrogant and uninhibited.
