Chapter 57: The Praying Mantis Catches the Cicada
"The salt gang is really hateful to these profiteers, Your Majesty has made a lot of profits or is insatiable, and the smugglers have already committed a capital crime to ban salt, and they dare to cooperate with the enemy to buy and sell war horses, and wait for the miscellaneous family to ask the Holy Decree to do him!"
Jian Shuo only has His Majesty in his heart, which is also the reason why Emperor Ling regards him as a minister of the humerus.
"Who says it's not, but general, you go to ask for a decree for fear of walking wind, why don't you and I secretly take this deal, just in time for the New Year, how about giving Your Majesty a New Year's gift?"
"Listening to the words of the little general, I have a bit of a bandit's spirit-" Jian Shuo is used to being arrogant, except for His Majesty, no one is afraid, and naturally he will not take care of other people's face, "Those who are officials should be above board and act according to the law."
However, Jian Shuo's words are also pertinent, as an official, he should be aware of everything, act in accordance with the law, and when he encounters such a big case, report it to Zhao Yin, and quickly cooperate with the military officers to investigate and handle it.
"Lord Shangjun doesn't know, this person's nickname is Pixiu, black and white, it is said that he also has a personal relationship with Zhaoyin, and it will be very difficult to collect evidence when it is investigated," Huangfu Biao had to persuade patiently, don't steal chickens and rice, "Besides, profiteers are like weeds in the wilderness, killing them endlessly, why not treat them as shepherds, I will collect one or two when I wait for them to fatten, so that their tails will not be big, and they can be used by me, there are benefits and no harm——"
Jian Shuo put down the wine in the cup and thought about it carefully, Huangfu Biao's words were not false, and Emperor Ling did the same for corrupt officials and corrupt officials.
"If you don't know that firewood and rice are expensive, the miscellaneous family should also worry about Your Majesty, Your Majesty suffers from the lack of horses in the army, and there is no way to procure, then do it according to your wishes, the miscellaneous family will help you, but the war horse has to be seen by His Majesty first, and the miscellaneous family will inevitably have your benefits afterwards——"
"Humble and provincial, come, I wish you success, how about a toast?"
"Hahaha, the little general is really a great Han Fu general, what Your Majesty said is true, such a good thing can be met by you, it is also the will of God, the will of God-"
The double cup touched, Jian Shuo was shortlisted, the overall situation has been decided, Huangfu Biao is also happy, the two are staggered, not very happy, if it is not for Jian Shuo is a father-in-law, it is estimated that they can worship a brother with a different surname.
"Then there will be Lao Shangjun's dispatch, and I will wait for the lord to hunt Meng Jin tomorrow!"
"Miscellaneous family, look at the little general Shenwei!"
The two were full of wine and food, and the conversation was decided, so they ran away with each other.
Yingchun Lou was so scared that he didn't dare to ask for food money, when he came, Jian Shuo's old face was clouded, and he didn't tear down this building to solve the hatred in his heart, and the little killing god went downstairs at this time, there was a smile between his eyebrows and eyes, and he didn't know what method was cast, maybe this is called smelling alike, fortunately, he didn't come to copy the house, and the name of Jian Shuo, the first general of the Ling Emperor's family, was simply terrible.
The next day, the sky was slightly overcast.
The ships in and out of Mengjin Port were not affected by the weather, and they were still blocked, only experienced boatmen supported the small boats to shuttle back and forth, and the big ships were basically moored on the shore and waited for the gate to be opened, and they did not dare to move at all, for fear of bumping into it.
In the past, someone at the gate of the Salt Gang had already come out to beckon the porter who loaded the salt to carry the salt, but today the fifty big boats of the Salt Gang occupy half of the river, but no one beckoned the porter to load the boat. Look at the waterline of the ship is very deep, it is obvious that it has been loaded, it should have been loaded in the middle of the night, who loaded it? I don't know, in front of each boat stood a family member of the Sun family to watch the ship, the living should not approach, you can imagine the importance of this batch of goods.
