Xu He told the county lord who was born in the stove the details of the [Gang Yun Law] in detail.

Chen Hua frowned after listening to it and said: "If the old introduction is paid off, it will be a new introduction, and the salt merchant is hereditary, I am afraid that he will become a huge rich!" ”

Xu He was surprised that Chen Hua was sensitive to the Gangyun method.

That's right, in another time and space, the Gangyun Law is used to deal with the desperate Kaizhong Law.

From the middle and late Ming Dynasty to the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Gangyun Law has always been the only way for the imperial court to control the salt industry.

During this period, because the Gangyun Law replaced the Kaizhong Law, it further promoted the rise of Huizhou merchants, as well as the development of the two Huai, especially Huai'an, Yangzhou and other large cities, the salt merchant garden culture derived from it, and the Huaiyang cuisine is still the cultural treasure of our nation.

At the peak of the Hui merchants, they cultivated forests and gardens, spending money like soil, even if it was Deng Tongshi Chong and others, it was not comparable.

But who has ever seen a Hui merchant tail rebelling or funding a rebellion?

No, because, in the whole system, the imperial court will always be the dominant one, and as a vested interest group, if the salt merchant wants to maintain his wealth, he must be attached to the imperial court, even to a certain magnatate.

In other words, their scenery is actually vine, and they can't survive independently at all.

In addition, the program is changed every ten years, and the place where the businessman sells has changed, and the people, things, and things he has come into contact with are relatively unfamiliar, which has also eliminated the possibility of businessmen colluding with local interest groups to develop their power to a large extent.

Chen Hua was like a Confucian child in social studies, nodding his head while listening, not embarrassed to ask a child for advice in his own identity.

After Xu He finished speaking, he hurriedly asked someone to bring a pen and paper, thought carefully about what Xu He had just said, and wrote it on the paper with a wave of the pen.

When encountering details that he didn't understand, or that needed to be scrutinized, he would stop his pen and discuss it with Xu He again.

In this way, the two chatted for a day, and Lao Zheng Tou came to see them a few times and listened to what they said, but he couldn't understand it at all.

What made him even more puzzled was that it was clear that Chen Hua was the official master, but why did he seem to be like a schoolboy, what Xu Gongzi said, his face showed a sudden realization, and then nodded again and again.

In the evening, the two continued with candles, and finally at the third watch, Chen Hua wrote the original manuscript.

Next, he called his subordinates, took the notebook he had brought with him, and transcribed the contents of the manuscript paper to the notebook.

It was late at night, Xu He ran all the way, and he didn't rest after arriving at Zhangcha, looking at Chen Hua, who was still in good spirits, he couldn't stay up, and lay down on the couch next to him.

In this way, he fell asleep unconsciously, and I don't know how long later, suddenly the door was knocked open, and Ding Erxiao broke in with a torch, followed by more than a dozen strong men.

"Oh no, Gongzi Xu, our salt farm is surrounded by soldiers from the imperial court!" Ding Er Kokura Huang Road.

Xu He had just woken up, and the whole person was still stunned, but Chen Hua was startled and quickly stood up and said, "What's the matter?" ”

"What's going on?" Suddenly, another group of people broke in, only to see Wang Zhu'er glaring angrily at Chen Hua and Xu He: "You know what's going on, you are just delaying the army and stabilizing us, but in fact, you are secretly sending troops to surround us!" ”

After he finished saying this, not only did the people behind Wang Zhu'er look at them angrily, but even the young man brought by Ding Erxiao looked unkind.

Xu He finally woke up at this time, and he unexpectedly found that his body was covered with Chen Hua's coat, obviously when he had just fallen asleep, Chen Hua was afraid that he would freeze, so he deliberately took off his coat and covered him.

Thinking of this section, Xu He has a lot of feelings about Chen Hua.

But at this time, Chen Hua didn't have time to think about this, he said angrily at Wang Zhu'er: "I discussed with Xu He how to play, and I studied for a whole day, and I haven't slept until now, do you say that we are stabilizing you?" Then why don't we take the opportunity to escape, and wait for the court soldiers to arrive, and then we will be captured alive? ”

Wang Zhu'er sneered: "Officials are used to rhetoric, who knows what twists and turns in your hearts!" ”

Chen Hua was still arguing, at this time, Xu He lifted the clothes covering his body and came to everyone, he said to Ding Erxiao: "Second Brother Ding, where are the soldiers of the imperial court now?" ”

Ding Erxiao's face was grim and said: "The people we sent out to look at the wind said that except for the sea side, there were officers and soldiers on all three sides who were twenty miles away and touched this side, and there was no fire along the way, and the men and horses were almost silent!" ”

Xu He frowned and said, "Do you know where the soldiers came from?" ”

"I don't know!" Ding Erxiao shook his head.

Chen Hua was anxious, and there was originally hope that he would not use force to solve the problem, but if the imperial court sent troops to encircle and suppress it at this time, not only he and Xu He would die, but perhaps the richest Nanzhi would also be eroded.

He said in a loud voice: "This official will go to investigate, don't worry, I will tell the people who come that you are all good people, and the previous things were also those salt tyrants who did a lot of evil, and you were all forced to do it!" ”

Wang Zhu'er sneered and looked at Ding Erxiao: "Second brother, is it the same as I guessed?" This official wants to run! ”

Chen Hua was furious: "This official wants to run? So what about Xu Gongzi? ”

Wang Zhu'er sneered: "The Xu family has this time, this surnamed Xu is to forgive sins with his body, and the county magistrate is here to save you!" ”

"Nima! This Wang Zhu'er's brain circuit is clear, isn't my son's life worthless? Xu He scolded in his heart.

Just when the two sides were arguing, Lao Zheng Tou walked in with a person dressed as a scholar.

As soon as he entered the door, Lao Zheng Tou said to Chen Hua: "Lord Chen, have you written what you showed the emperor?" ”

When Chen Hua heard this, he picked up the transcript he had just copied on the table and handed it to Lao Zheng: "Be careful, don't get dirty." ”

When Lao Zheng heard this, he immediately solemnly held the person who was dressed as a scholar next to him with both hands, and then turned to Chen Hua and said: "Lord Chen, his name is Fan Zong, and he is the only person who can read and hyphenate in our salt farm. ”

That Fan Zong obviously came to inspect Chen Hua and Xu He's [homework].

He took the notebook from Lao Zhengtou's hand and read it carefully.

Everyone looked at him with bated breath, this recital may not be useful even if it is handed over, but it shows an attitude, an attitude of Chen Hua and the Xu family.

Lao Zheng Tou and everyone present attach great importance to this attitude, they have suffered for so many years, after all, someone has to tell His Majesty the Emperor, and they have no choice but to tell those big people in the court.

Moreover, this is also the key to Chen Hua and Xu He to win everyone's trust.

Just when everyone was staring at Fan Zong, Fan Zong's face gradually became excited from the initial solemnity, and finally his eyebrows fluttered: "Once this program is implemented, we can also participate in the salt price negotiation, this and that...... If this is the case, we will never suffer like this again! ”
