"Do you have any family?"

After sitting down, Hai Desheng still knelt in front of Zhao Gui, and when he heard Zhao Gui ask such a sentence, his heart suddenly felt at ease, no matter what, this time there was no worry about his life.

Since the other party opened his mouth to ask about his family members, of course he wanted to take these family members as hostages, otherwise, how could he care about his wife and son. He swallowed his saliva and replied respectfully: "I have a wife, and two concubines, the wife has no ability, but the two concubines have raised a son and a daughter for the younger one, and they have reached the age of reading and writing." ”

"Go back and bring it out, and send the family to Lingshan!" Zhao Gui said: "When you go to Lingshan, you will naturally not treat them lightly!" ”

Hai Desheng thanked again and again, and now he can have this ending, he is already quite content.

"The trade on the sea, stop!" Zhao Gui didn't look at him, and said to himself: "We Shandong, how can there be a reason to eat other people's salt, in the future, your salt goods will all come from Lingshan, this is no problem, right?" ”

"No problem, no problem! The general said to do what he wanted!" Hai Desheng said again and again, vaguely, he also felt that this was not a bad thing, the source of his salt was guaranteed, and these officers and soldiers were behind him, even if he couldn't make much, he couldn't lose much, but this kind of business was done at ease, and it was much safer than the livelihood he used to work hard with his head.

"Can you appease this outside?" Zhao Gui asked a little suspiciously, even if there are dead people outside, there are still more than 100 unruly men, if there is a fuss, if this sea victory can't be suppressed, these words are not very interesting?

"Or, I'll sort it out for you, cut off a few thorns, you will do things for my Fengzi camp in the future, there should still be rules, this is not obeying the order, but it is a big crime to cut off the head, if it is because of the disobedience of the subordinates, implicating you, then your wife and son in Lingshan will be unlucky!"

"General Xie bothered, there are still some brothers under the credit of the small subordinates, these people are all desperate, and the small ones can still control it!" Since it is to do things for the other party, then the people under him must have it, and the most brave subordinates just now are almost lying outside, if this general, he will cut off a batch of heads. Then what kind of capital do you have to fight with other salt lords?

"That's good, go out, someone will tell you how to do it, do everything that needs to be done, tomorrow I will take you to Guangrao and Yidu, and let you know a few people!"

******

Zhang Xiao has been waiting for the news anxiously since he returned to his camp after sending the news to the Lord of the Thousand Households, but he saw with his own eyes that the Fengzi Battalion pulled hundreds of people and horses, and headed towards the north in a mighty way.

It's not just that he's waiting for news, even those salts under his command are waiting for the news brought back by the Fengzi Battalion, with such strong reinforcements, they are naturally not worried about not being able to win, if they want to say worried, they are just worried that those thieves will flee when they hear the wind and will not be able to catch the main master.

In the past few days, the salt lads have been vigilant, for fear of retaliation by the salt lords who have slipped through the net, and on the fifth day, someone finally brought the news.

What is strange is that he and the people behind him are wearing the uniforms of the Fengzi Battalion, but there is a bald guy in civilian clothes, obviously not in the army.

"Team Zhang, let me introduce to you, this is the master of Haidesheng Haida, the two brothers on your card died in the hands of his subordinates a few days ago!"

Zhang Xiao and a few people around him were still smiling and smiling in the vernacular of these hundred households, but when they heard this, their faces changed greatly, and they showed the guy out in their hands.

"Thank you, my lord, for capturing this thief, brother, I will cut off the head of this guy and worship our brother!" As he spoke, he grabbed towards the sea victory, no wonder this man cowered, for he knew that his days were over.

"Hey!" The hundred households had a wry smile on their faces, and stretched out their hands to stop them: "Don't you listen to what I say, Zhang Teamzheng, you are also an anxious person!" ”

"In the box I brought, there are twenty-eight heads, none of the people who participated in the killing of the Yanding brothers that day were left behind, all here, what our adults promised you, but they don't owe anything at all, as for this Haida master, he is unaware of the nonsense of his subordinates, he is blinded, and our adults have promised not to pursue him again!"

"Haida is in charge, you can also say something, these brothers are facing us with knives, and others still think we are infighting!"

"Zhang Teamzheng, I have offended a lot before, this time, I came to send some silver money to those Yanding brothers who died on the card, if the brothers have anything to embarrass them, they will order them to come down, I will definitely not frown if I win the sea, for the sake of Lord Zhao's face, don't embarrass the little brother!" Hai Desheng's posture was very low, he couldn't help but be low, Zhao Gui's people told him that in the future, if there is anything, contact the inspection department more and listen to their opinions. Doesn't this make it clear that he will eat with these salted rice in the future? If you can't figure it out, the pockmarked head of the salt in front of you is the boss who will flatter him in the future?

In Hai Desheng's heart, he was recruited by the officers and soldiers, although his identity is not visible now, but compared to his own foolishness, it is much stronger, at least, Lord Zhao promised his son that he could enter the school run by their garrison adult, this is the treatment that he can't imagine as a thief! In his opinion, the school run by the garrison adults, isn't that the place where the children of these court officers can read and write? As long as his son fights for luck, is it possible that this time he will still be blessed by misfortune? In these years, there are a few literate soldiers who can read, which is clearly a place to cultivate cronies!

Since he has this thought in his heart, then the distinction between the upper and lower levels naturally appears in his heart, and the lord of the hundred households who brought him naturally does not say, that is the court military attache with a grade, and the leader of the salt ding in front of him, although he seems to be not very old, but he also has dozens of people under his head, if this is placed in the army, at least it is a general flag.

In the past two days, the biggest question in his heart is to figure out why his own people killed a few salt dings, and immediately some officers and soldiers came to the door, daring to love, this officer and soldier and salt ding are all one family, and they are basically the same master, in this case, his attitude towards Zhang Xiao is not strange. If people can't figure it out, it's still an official body, and his natural identity is much stronger than that of him, who came here halfway.

Zhang Xiao looked at the hundred households with a little doubt, the current scene, he couldn't turn a corner, the hundred households sent the first level, it is understandable, naturally the Fengzi Camp was angry for them, but, get this live thief head over, and he still wants to stuff himself with money, what does this mean?

"Haida is in charge, and now it is Lingshan salt that is sold!" The hundred households said with a smile.

"I'm ......!" Zhang Xiao scolded bitterly in his heart: "Why is this guy so good, not only does he not have to die, but he also has such a way to make money!" ”

These hundred households, how could he not understand, Lingshan salt, naturally is his own salt goods, that is, the official salt approved by the Lingshan salt transportation inspection now, such people are all local tycoons, approved by the garrison adults, and made a register in the Four Seas Commercial Bank, even if the strength was not good before the sale of this Lingshan salt, but the people who were selected to sell salt on this side often rose sharply within a few months, of course, this net worth also rose. With the inspection department to help them eliminate competitors and protect their business, and with official support and solid support, it is difficult to make a fortune.

Since it is Lingshan salt that is sold, then at least it can be regarded as half of his own people, so it is not appropriate to move the knife against this big sea master.

Zhang Xiao stupidly put away the guy in his hand, and said angrily: "You are lucky, and I don't know if you have the ability to sell Lingshan salt here, I see ......."

He didn't continue, and if he continued, he would be disrespectful to Zhao Gui, and the next words at the beginning of this sentence were to say that their boss's acquaintance was unknown in front of these hundred households, and he didn't have such a blind look.

He wisely stopped in time, and said to him: "The buried silver of the two brothers who died in the line of duty is naturally responsible for our inspection department, and you have to make any fun, the pension of the disabled brothers, our inspection department is preferential, even if it is dead, the family does not have to worry about livelihood, your silver, let's take it back!" ”

"Zhang Teamzheng, Lord Qianhu said, this sea victory has a sense of guilt, that is a good thing, and it can't be left out in the cold. I think it is also, in the future, I am afraid that there will be more closeness between your inspection department and the Haidang family, this money, you still have to collect it, and the brothers will share it, and you will also need money to recuperate from your injuries! Lord Qianhu said, you don't have to worry, salt has the rules of salt, and you are not allowed to collect a cent from salt merchants, but this time, even if it is an exception, it is reported to Lord Qianhu, if you Yamen investigates it, there will naturally be a document from the Fengzi Camp to testify for you! ”

At this point, Zhang Xiao no longer insisted, and was able to accept the silver taels sent by Hai Desheng, and then sent them away. He secretly thought: "Presumably, there will be an order from above in the near future, whether to accept this sea victory or cooperate with him, just do what you order, and now everyone is obviously here to apologize and show up to recognize people, but there is no need to be too polite." ”

After sending them away, he commanded his subordinates to get the heads brought by Baihu out of the box and hang them on the fence at the entrance of the checkpoint. Presumably, after this battle, those who dare to use knives against Yanding, before pulling out the knives next time, must think carefully about whether they have been turned into one of the twisted heads on this fence after pulling out this knife.
