Just as the sailors were cleaning up the battlefield, the two messengers behind the scribe had already gathered the Miao people at the scene, and talked to them with a lot of words, so that they nodded their heads one by one, and swore that they would not tell the story of today's fighting.

Since the dock was still some distance from the town, and the fight was very short, it did not alarm the townspeople, so it saved a lot of hands and feet.

After clearing the battlefield, the sailors began to unload bags of table salt from the ship. The first thing to come out was the two thousand catties of salt promised to Gayin for them. And Gayin naturally happily volunteered to help. As for the two officers, they took a pair of sailors to the town ahead to gather the people.

After the two thousand catties of salt in Jiayin were unloaded, the people in the town also came to the dock one after another. It was as if the scribe stood on a high platform stacked with several salt bags and gave an impassioned and enthusiastic speech to the villagers!

He told all the villagers that the Ming Dynasty produced a very benevolent emperor! He hoped that the people under his rule could live a happy life, so he ordered the smartest prime minister of the Ming Dynasty to find a way! So the prime minister named Zhang Juzheng thought that everyone could save a lot of money by letting everyone eat cheap salt, so he set out to do it!

As for why it is not said that the first assistant is because the people in these remote areas can't tell what the first assistant and the second assistant are, they only know that the prime minister is the biggest official after the emperor! Therefore, the scribe felt that instead of explaining what Shoufu meant, it would be easier to say that it was the prime minister directly!

So Prime Minister Zhang Juzheng tried his best to develop a new method of making salt, and then immediately popularized it! Now, through the efforts of the Prime Minister and all the officials, the price of salt in the whole Ming Dynasty has been reduced! And everyone is free to go to the salt factory to buy salt for trafficking, or can buy salt in batches from the official salt shop for trafficking!

As for selling salt here today, it's just for publicity! It is to tell everyone that if you want to buy salt in the future, you will have to buy salt from a fixed official salt shop or salt factory!

The villagers were confused about other things, they only knew that from today onwards, the salt they ate was 55 yuan per catty, which was already a remarkable number! It's almost 200 Wen cheaper than before! Therefore, one by one, they praised the benevolence of the emperor, the wisdom of the prime minister, and the hard work of the officials, and the scene was simply jubilant!

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the scribe began to call for people to sell salt. To the surprise of the villagers, it was really fifty-five wen a catty! So everyone paid for it and bought it enthusiastically, for fear that there would be no such store in this village!

However, the amount of salt that can be sold in a town is a small number after all, so under the persuasion of the naval officer, it seems that the scribe reluctantly sold all the remaining salt to Gayin. And according to the new rules, buying salt in large quantities can also be discounted, so it is cheaper than five cents per catty!

As a result, Gayin's money was not enough, and when he was anxious, it seemed that the scribe was very righteous and allowed him to pay on credit! But ten people in the town were asked to be guarantors. And promised that if he could honestly send the money to the county, the matter of buying salt in the future could be wrapped up in him!

At this time, everyone here was already in ecstasy, especially the Miao people like Jiayin, who were overjoyed! For the first time, they felt that there were good people among the Han people! It's just that what worries them is that he can't transport the mountain of salt!

At this time, Gayin's always smart mind has been completely overwhelmed by the huge surprise, and he has no idea at all! In the end, the messenger instructed him to set up a bamboo shed by the dock to store salt, and then sent a few people to guard here. The rest can send the salt out and come back to pull it while selling it!

While everyone was busy, the officer and the scribe surnamed Huang came to the soldier who had not spoken. I just heard the scribe smile and said, "Brother Zhao, what we did today is not illegal, right?"

This soldier was obviously sent by the Wu'an Army to escort the ship, and judging by his rank, he should be a squad leader. I only heard him say slowly, "The higher authorities sent me down just to supervise that you don't fill your pockets! As long as you don't have an accident with this, I'm just wearing glasses and ears! But I will definitely report this matter to Shangguan when I go back, and it has nothing to do with me as for how Shangguan decides!"

It was as if the scribe said, "Then Brother Zhao, what do you think will happen to your superiors

What do you say?"

The soldier said, "I don't know! But I guess as long as you don't put salt and silver in your pockets, it shouldn't be a big problem! After all, some of those people have already admitted that they are smugglers, and this can't be faked! And I guess those Miao people should be happier than let them take the credit, and give them some salt!"

When the officer heard this, he slapped his face and said, "I'll just say that Brother Zhao must be a sensible person and will not dismantle our platform!" Thank you so much this time!"

It seems that the scribe also nodded and said, "Brother Zhao is interesting! However, Brother Zhao was so seasick and dizzy along the way that he couldn't eat! Now that we have landed, we have to think of a way to make up for Brother Zhao!"

When the officer heard this, he naturally slapped his chest, and said in a big way: "I just want to rest here for a few days, but I will contact the people in the town for a while, and get some delicious food and drink for Brother Zhao to recuperate!"

Naturally, he is not a loss for such a big package! Taking back these dozens of heads is a military feat! And the scribe was naturally with him for a plot credit. Moreover, he has been on the battlefield as a civilian official, and his qualifications are considered to be outstanding among his colleagues, and he will consider this more when he is promoted in the future!

And to be honest, the one who has benefited the most is actually this officer! Under the flashing and moving of him and the scribe, he won a battle without a penny, won dozens of heads, and also got the endorsement of the yamen personnel, this credit is iron, and no one can take it! So it's worth some money!

By the evening, the ship was completely unloaded! Jiayin also built a bamboo shed by the river and put all the unsold salt into the bamboo shed. He was still guarded. Look at the book

When the business is done, it's time to start celebrating! The villagers who bought low-cost salt spontaneously took out the wine and meat at home to reward the officers and soldiers of the water division! And so a town-wide celebration began!

The Han people in the town have always been gentle and introverted, but don't forget that there are also 30% Miao and Yi people! They're passionate! Under their leadership, the whole town celebrated enthusiastically! Everyone was eating meat, drinking and having a lot of fun!
