Chapter 374: The Controversy over Fine Salt
Their faces were full of confusion, but because of the crying of adults, they were also helpless and sad in their eyes. Seeing the helplessness in the eyes of those childish children.
Jiang Chao's heart was a little blocked. Originally, these children should live happily with their parents and relatives. But because of the ambition of some people, they have lost their loved ones.
War is ruthless, on the battlefield either you die or I live, Jiang Chao did not regret that he killed so many Bai people.
After all, if he didn't kill those Bai soldiers, it might be the Zidi Army that would die, the White Lotus Army! He just hated those who provoked wars.
The Bai people looked at the caravan of 100 people, some were indifferent and some were expectant. There are also rejoicing.
Along the way, Jiang Chao saw too many scenes, and his heart became even heavier.
Soon, they were in front of a flat field on the right, which had been specially carved out. The house in front is huge. There are also many shelves inside.
This is the largest commodity supply office of the Bai nationality, and it is also the Bai merchant who cooperates with Ji Dongcheng. The goods on the backs of 100 people should barely be able to meet the needs of the Bai people.
When Jiang Chao and the others first arrived in front of this flat land, they saw that it was full of Bai people. Everyone looked at Jiang Chao's side with anticipation. Such a situation made Jiang Chao a little stunned.
Ji Dongcheng is not strange; "Brother Jiang is used to it, every time we have new goods coming, those of the Bai clan who can't wait will come and wait. Always ready to buy your favorite items. ”
"The most popular among them, and now the most popular is fine salt. Among the nearly 100 people, at least ninety percent of them are afraid that they are coming for this fine salt! ”
With his voice, someone in the crowd couldn't wait to speak out: "Shopkeeper Ji, have you brought enough fine salt this time, our family has been out of salt for a long time!" ”
"Rest assured, everyone has a ...... Don't worry, everyone......" Ji Dongcheng said to the crowd with a smile.
Fine salt accounted for at least more than half of the shipment this time. The soldiers of the subordinate army, among the 100 catties of things each person carryed, at least 50 catties were fine salt!
Hearing Ji Dongcheng's words, the eyes of the Bai people were full of joy. If you weren't able to control yourself, you would probably have rushed over to grab it!
"If you want to buy fine salt, everyone line up. Otherwise, no one can buy fine salt! Just when the Bai people couldn't control their emotions.
Out of the wooden house came a young woman of twenty-five or sixteen, dressed in the women's clothes of the Bai tribe, and looked a little presumptuous. Her cold voice suddenly made the surrounding Bai people hurriedly line up obediently.
Everyone was obviously full of jealousy of her, and they didn't seem to dare to offend her.
No way, people are the owners of this store. If she doesn't sell the goods to you, it will be difficult for the Bai people to get the goods! In addition, it is difficult to get around.
There is no other place to buy things except here. Either go to Jiangcheng County to buy it.
Before, it took two or three days to go to Jiangcheng County, and it was too time-consuming to go back and forth. Moreover, now because of the White Lotus Army, the Bai people can't go to Jiangcheng County at all.
Seeing the woman coming, Ji Dongcheng hurriedly greeted her, and the other party also greeted her.
"Shopkeeper Ji, you're finally here, if you don't come again, I'm about to let these people be demolished here!" The woman smiled at Ji Dongcheng and smiled.
Ji Dongcheng smiled at her.
"Doni, you're really good at laughing, if they dare to be presumptuous with you, I'm afraid they won't want to buy anything from you in the future! By the way, it's all here, I'll let them send it to your backyard. Bring down the goods, you come and count them first! ”
Hearing this, the woman Dorni nodded. Hurriedly beckoned Ji Dongcheng and more than a hundred disciples to go inside.
At the back, there is also a huge courtyard and warehouse. Jiang Chao asked his disciples to take the goods in their backpacks. The things that belong to you are left in the backpack.
The woman didn't come to check everyone's backpacks, she just commanded people to count the goods, and at the same time, she also asked people to take out some of the fine salt and sell it.
There are also restrictions on the sale of fine salt, after all, there are only more than 5,000 catties of fine salt. There are tens of thousands of people in the entire Bai nationality. It simply doesn't meet what you need.
If everyone who comes first buys more, the people who come later don't have to buy more.
Although people cannot die temporarily without salt, without salt supplementation, various diseases will appear over time. There is even the possibility of death.
The previous war between the Bai Clan and the White Lotus Army had made salt extremely scarce. Although there is salt stone in case of emergency, it is still too far from fine salt.
Just as she finished counting the goods and was about to settle the bill for Ji Dongcheng, suddenly, there was a noisy sound outside, followed by shouting and cursing, accompanied by screams!
Hearing this voice, Jiang Chao's eyes showed a sense of surprise, and there was a trace of doubt, could it be that the Bai people had rioted and were ready to grab the fine salt here!
But it doesn't feel like it, if that's the case, it is estimated that those people would have rushed in a long time ago, and it won't be cursing and shouting and screaming!
When the woman Dorni heard this, she walked out with a gloomy face. Jiang Chao and Luo Ningshuang glanced at each other and glanced at Ji Dongcheng. The three of them also walked out.
Before leaving, Jiang Chao asked the soldiers of the Zidi Army to stand by inside. Everyone put on their backpacks and waited in the courtyard.
Soon, the woman Doni walked to the front, and Jiang Chao and the three followed.
I saw that in the square, twenty or thirty Bai soldiers wearing special Bai military uniforms held swords and knocked the Bai people in line to the ground. The screams came from the mouths of those Bai people on the ground.
Most of these people are elderly, infirm, women and children. Jiang Chao also saw some old and weak women and children who had just seen dead family members on the road.
And those Bai soldiers with weapons in their hands still let out bursts of shouting and scolding in their mouths.
"You also deserve to eat fine salt, tell you, get out of me now, if you don't get out, the clan rules will deal with it." The fine salt here is all inclusive for the head of the people! If you want fine salt, wait for the next batch! ”
The first leader cursed at the people on the ground.
His words made the eyes of the surrounding Bai people full of anger. Those Bai people on the ground, although their eyes were full of resentment.
But he looked at them with fear, and didn't dare to resist at all. Everyone dared to be angry but did not dare to speak.
When Jiang Chao saw this scene, his eyes showed a gleam, this Helian father and son are really not things, and they actually want to use their power to swallow this batch of fine salt that was finally transported in.
They will enjoy it, and they don't care about the life or death of the Bai people below, and only care about their own pleasure.
You must know that among these Bai people, there are many relatives who died because of his ambition!
