Chapter 311 One tael of salt and ten taels of silver

"Leave?"

Lin Ruhai looked dazed: "Now, the matter of eating the king is the matter of loyalty to the king. Where can I go without leaving?"

If it is a corrupt official, there will be countless ways to retreat.

It's a pity that Lin Ruhai is not, he is a clean official.

Even the silver that was transported to Rongguo's Mansion was also the bureau of the big man, otherwise even if the Lin family was an official for several generations, it would not have been able to accumulate so much wealth.

"Akane Country, Yelang Country, Fuso Country, anywhere is good, anywhere can live. Uncle Lin, the Holy One knows that you are in a difficult situation, and he will not blame you."

"The king wants his ministers to die, and the ministers have to die."

Lin Ruhai said lightly: "I know all this, but now, this official is the key to reorganizing the salt administration in Jiangnan, and the blood of this official has also become a sacrifice to wash away the dirt of the salt tax. As soon as this official dies, why not exchange the treasury of this peaceful and prosperous world?"

People like Lin Ruhai, Liu Xianglian admires them very much.

But if there is such a person around him, or someone who is very close to him, it will be a headache for him.

This means that if you want to protect Lin Ruhai, it will cost ten times or even a hundred times the cost and energy.

"The uncle's ideological consciousness impressed the little nephew. The little nephew is ashamed of himself. If your uncle has any ideas, why don't you tell your little nephew where we should start first?"

"Ahem! Ahem, ahem!"

Lin Ruhai coughed violently for a while and said, "My nephew has just come to Yangzhou, and many things are still unclear, even if I say it at this time, I am just arbitrary, and I can't see many things comprehensively, and now I have no one to use."

If you look and listen more, you may see other sides of things from another angle.

In three days, we'll talk about how to do it."

Liu Xianglian said with a smile: "Then according to my uncle's wishes, the little nephew will come here to beat the grass first and see what kind of big snake can be frightened."

Wupin Golden Dragon Guard, not to mention in the place, even if it is in the capital, it is definitely the number one person.

"Hehe, it's still young people who have momentum, cough ......."

Before she finished her sentence, Liu Xianglian coughed a little again.

"Uncle, are you alright?"

Lin Ruhai said: "Depression has become a disease, a very old problem, and it is not in the way."

"Uncle, the little nephew is here, you are relieved. Take care of your body first, and my subordinates will stay in the Lin Mansion to listen to your dispatch first, and only after taking care of your body can you serve the court!"

Lin Ruhai smiled lightly and was relieved.

"It's okay, I'll send someone to invite Lang Zhong in a while, what else does the virtuous nephew do?"

Lin Ruhai picked up the tea and prepared to send it off.

Although Liu Xianglian is here today, he hasn't verified it yet, so he just says something and leaves a sentence.

He is now a member of the third grade, although it is difficult to move an inch in Yangzhou, but it is still very simple to verify the identity of a golden dragon guard.

"Uncle, I'm afraid it's not safe in Langzhong outside now, if my uncle can trust my little nephew, can I let my little nephew treat my uncle."

"Why not?"

Now that he is at the end of his rope, even if someone really comes to assassinate him, Lin Ruhai doesn't care

To die or not to die, you can't help yourself.

Liu Xianglian touched Lin Ruhai's pulse, and soon found that things were not as simple as he thought.

It's not a simple accumulation of depression.

"Uncle, you're poisoned!"

"Poisoned!?"

"Yes, it should be a chronic poison, I used my internal force to swim through your meridians, and found that your internal organs are now covered with minor toxins, if you don't expel them, the toxins will accumulate more and more."

Lin Ruhai exclaimed, "How dare they do this! This official is an official sent by the Holy Father."

"I'm afraid this is what they did specifically and is a kind of demonstration for those who come after them! Don't worry, uncle, I'll expel the poison for my uncle!"

Liu Xianglian is no longer Wuxia Ameng, but now she is a real master of the rivers and lakes!

Poison to deal with ordinary people, in his internal force

Under the urging of the company, it soon slowly dripped out of Lin Ruhai's mouth bit by bit, and in less than half an hour, there was no longer any toxin.

"Whew...... Uncle, are you feeling better?"

Lin Ruhai carefully felt his body and felt the pain that he had not felt before.

"I feel some pain."

"Uncle doesn't need to worry, this is because your body was paralyzed by toxins before, but you didn't feel the slightest feeling, but now that some of the toxins have been expelled, and your body functions have recovered, you will feel these pains. In two or three more cases, the residual poison from my uncle's body will be cleared, and then my uncle will definitely be able to regroup and clear Jiangnan Yanzheng."

"Ahem, hehe, then borrow your auspicious words."

Lin Ruhai, who had just finished detoxification, was very weak.

"Uncle, if there is a problem with the people in your house......

"Virtuous nephew, you just need to look at it, even if the officials of Jin Longwei can cut it first, let alone my subordinates."

Liu Xianglian said goodbye and left, and a few people under her really found a lot of tricks in this investigation.

There are more than a dozen spies who buy vegetables, dig dung, guard the door, and chop firewood.

"Boss, this Lin Imperial Historian has been infiltrated into a sieve."

"Go back and talk! Candle, you and the south wind and the north wind stay to protect the safety of Master Lin."

"Boss, what are these people going to do?"

"Kill them all!"

"Good Rat, I like this thing the most!"

Fan Biao's iron fist soon sent these female cadres back to the west.

Liu Xianglian took Fan Biao and Hua Qing and left the Lin family.

"Boss, where are we going now?"

"Now...... Let's go to the south of the city!"

In the south of Yangzhou Prefecture, where the market is distributed, Liu Xianglian and his party have just emerged, and there are a few people behind them.

"Huh!"

Liu Xianglian sneered.

Hua Qing also found the person who was following him, and said with a smile, "Boss, do you want me to clean up these little mice?"

"No! If they want to see it, they will watch it well. There are two sides to everything, and if we can't find them, let them come to me. Let's go, we have more important things to do now."

Sure enough, the stalkers followed for two hours before disappearing.

The official salt in the bazaar is bought and sold, and there are few customers.

Liu Xianglian observed carefully, but she didn't find a single ordinary person.

"Zhu Qing, did you say where do the people in Yangzhou City buy salt?"

Maybe Liu Xianglian's voice is too loud, or maybe his statement is too ridiculous and seems to be extremely mentally retarded.

An uncle selling wine on the side suddenly laughed: "Hou Sheng, you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are, at first glance, you are a kid with ten fingers that don't touch the spring water."

Liu Xianglian said curiously: "How can you see it?"

"This official salt can be bought by our ordinary people? These are all princes and nobles, scholars and eunuchs, and the price is not much better than gold! Who will buy it? If you want me to say, it's normal for no one to buy it, and if someone buys it, it's definitely a corrupt official!"

The old man said indignantly.

"Zhu Qing, you go and ask, how much is a tael of this official salt!"

"Okay, Boss!"

"Uncle, then tell me, where do we people have to buy salt? The kid is not a native of Yangzhou, and he wants to buy some salt for his home when he first arrives, but now he can't figure out the door, so he asks the old man to tell me."

The old man smiled and said, "Housheng, then you sell some wine, not me blow, my wine is the best in this neighborhood."

"Fan Biao, try it!"

"Good Lat! Lao Tzu has always been the most drinker. Bring me your wine, old thing!"

Before the old man could react, Fan Biao had already stuffed his head into his wine vat and drank it with a grunt.

"Shhh...... Ha, boss, this old thing is not nonsense, this wine is made of fine grain, and the taste is very pure!"

"Ugh...... alas

, Hou Sheng, if you go down like this, you can at least drink two catties of my wine, you ......

"Don't worry, uncle, I want this vat of wine! But I have to trouble you to help me send it to Zhen's mansion."

"Well said, well said! Even if you let me send you to Jinling, it's done!"

Wine is a good thing in this day and age, and it is very valuable.

Five catties of grain and one catty of wine, this vat of wine is the sales of the old man for half a year.

The old man hurriedly closed the stall, and he couldn't close his mouth with joy: "Childe, where you let the old man go today, I will ship the old man!"

Hua Qing also walked back from the shop selling official salt, and said to Liu Xianglian mysteriously, "Boss, what do you guess the price of salt here?"

"What's the price?"

"Ten taels of silver and a tael of salt!"

"What?"

Liu Xianglian said in disbelief: "Ten taels of silver!?"

"Yes!"

Hua Qing also sighed, "It's just the best snow salt."

"No kosher salt?"

"Nope!"

"Let's go! Let's go back first! Uncle, you can keep up, if you can't keep up, I don't want your wine."

"Don't worry, Childe, I can be dexterous with my hands and feet."

Liu Xianglian and his entourage hurried back to Zhen's house, and the old man really didn't lose it.

Fan Biao, you go to the door and stand guard.

"Okay, Boss!"

Liu Xianglian took Hua Qing and the old man into the courtyard.

"Uncle, just unload the wine over there."

"I didn't expect Gongzi to be from the Zhen Mansion, no wonder I haven't bought private salt."

The old man sighed, "The sons of rich families are different."

"Uncle, how many taels of silver is your vat."

"Chenghui, thirty-eight taels of silver!"

Liu Xianglian took out a fifty taels of silver tickets: "Uncle, sit down, ask you some questions, it won't take up your time in vain, as long as you know everything, these fifty taels of silver tickets are all yours."

The old man heard that he could get ten taels of silver for asking a few questions, and his eyes were two circles bigger.

"Childe, even if you are me, as long as the old man knows, I will tell you everything, even if the old man doesn't know, the old man I will definitely ask you about it."

Liu Xianglian smiled: "It's not that complicated, uncle, let me ask you, on the street, you said that the common people don't buy that official salt in the market, so where do they go to buy it?"

"Hey, if it's in the village, then every now and then there will be a seller carrying the salt to sell, although it is only a bitter crude brine salt, but the price is really cheap. The people in our city, it is the fifteenth day of the first month of the month to go to Duliu City to catch the market!

The salt is good and cheap!"

"Official salt or private salt?"

"I don't know about that old man, anyway, there are snow salt, green salt, and coarse salt, and one or two snow salts only cost five thousand yuan! The old man was once lucky enough to buy one or two, and that tasted ......."
