Built in the heart of the herbal town, the three-storey building has always been the first choice for merchants and wealthy people. The decoration is luxurious, and all kinds of entertainment facilities are readily available for eating, drinking, prostitution and gambling.

The largest inn chain at the time. The Salt Gang took over the entire dwelling here.

The Salt Gang advocated Shibao drinking tea in the lobby, and at this time I saw Zhang Xingan returning to the inn with a group of people in a gloomy manner, Zhang Xingan covered his nose and came in crying, "Father, someone beat me." ”

Zhang Shibao: "I was beaten by someone." Zhang Xingan said: "I was beaten by a girl." ”

Zhang Shibao said angrily: "You know that you go to dip flowers and grass every day, and you don't do anything serious." ”

Zhang Xing'an: "Which girl, really beautiful." ”

Zhang Shibao: "We came to Herbal Medicine Town this time to seize the salt market here, not for you to soak in women." Zhang Xingan wanted to say something.

Zhang Xing'an interrupted: "You guys take the young gang master back to the room to recuperate!" This unproductive son. ”

Zhang Shibao is thinking about how to solve the problem of Liu's Yanzhuang, the Liu family has a strong family power, and it is not easy to swallow Liu's Yanzhuang.

At this time, someone came to report, "The helper has an old man asking to see him." Zhang Shibao said: "I'm in Herbal Medicine Town, and I don't know anyone!" Who will come to see you? ”

Zhang Shibao: "Please come in!" "After the old man came in, Zhang Shibao saw that the person who came was extraordinary and gentle." Old man, are you here? ”

Old man: "I am an envoy of admonition, and I have come here to give you advice. ”

Zhang Shibao: "The old man has something to say, please speak." The old man said: "Gang Master Zhang, this time I came to Herbal Medicine Town to develop the salt industry. ”

Zhang Shibao: "Yes, our Salt Gang business is all over the Equatorial Continent, but when we go to Herbal Town, we really can't move forward. The old man said: "The reason is that the herb town already has the Liujia Salt Village, and they are all used to selling salt in the Liujia Salt Village." ”

Zhang Shibao: "What Mr. said makes sense, so what should I do!" The old man said: "I think the salute comes first, and the only way to disagree is to eradicate the Liu family Yanzhuang." ”

Zhang Shibao: "It seems that this is the only way to do it." "He asked someone to call Mr. Zhang.

Manager Zhang: "What are the instructions for the helper to call me?" ”

Zhang Shibao: "You take some people to Liujia Yanzhuang and talk to them about the acquisition." ”

Manager Zhang came to Liu's Yanzhuang with more than a dozen people, and the doorman of Yanzhuang informed the owner Liu Hongtu, "Report to the owner of the village to help Manager Zhang ask to see." ”

Liu Hongtu: "I don't know what Manager Zhang wants to talk about!" Mr. Zhang: "Then I won't hide it!" It's about buying a salt farm. ”

Liu Hongtu: "The acquisition of Yanzhuang is my ancestral business, and I must not sell it." ”

Manager Zhang's face changed abruptly, "The gang leader asked me to talk to you about this matter, it is to give you enough face, and you also know how powerful the Salt Gang is in the Equatorial Continent." ”

At this time, Liu Linfeng and Liu Yuefen came back outside the door and saw that a group of people were surrounded outside the gate of Yanzhuang, preventing people from entering and leaving. Liu Linfeng and Liu Yuefen wanted to enter the salt village, but this group of people stopped them. "It's talking about the purchase of the salt house, and no one can enter."

The two sides argued and pushed, and suddenly fought, Liu Linfeng was surrounded by seven or eight people, Liu Yuefen was surrounded by four or five people, Liu Linfeng used Baguazhang to knock all the besiegers to the ground. Liu Yuefen used gossip to wander, shuttling between four and five, and repelling the besiegers one by one.

The two came in and said, "Father, I heard that the salt farm is going to be sold, and you must not sell the salt farm!" ”

Manager Zhang: "Since we can't negotiate, there will be a period later." Manager Zhang excitedly left the salt village with a dozen people.

Manager Zhang returned to the inn to report the purchase to the helper, but Yanzhuang refused to sell it and injured our people.

Zhang Shibao's face was also much more ugly, "Manager Zhang, you go and call the disciples of the Equatorial Continent to come to Herbal Medicine Town to support, remember to bring a hundred archers." Manager Zhang replied: "I'll do it." ”

Ai Chen and Xiao Lu were at the inn, Xiao Lu: "Ai Chen, why are there so many shameless people in your Equatorial Continent, today's Salt Gang Shaogang advocates Xing'an, I feel disgusted when I see it." ”

Ai Chen: "These people have been pampered since childhood, carrying cages and birds. Specializes in molesting girls. Xiao Lu said: "What kind of institution is the Salt Gang?" ”

Ai Chen: "The Salt Gang is a huge organization with its own armament to ensure the smooth flow of salt transportation.

The Salt Gang, from ancient times to the present, has controlled the salt industry in the entire rivers and lakes in the name of salt. Salt, like the blood of the rivers and lakes, controls people's lives, so the power of the Salt Gang is enough to shake the rivers and lakes.

The development of the Salt Gang is not only a simple business for a group of Jianghu people, but also a huge conspiracy. Mastering the salt industry means mastering the lifeblood of tens of millions of people. In order to protect their interests, the Salt Gang had to engage in fierce battles with other forces.

However, as time goes on, the Salt Gang gradually discovers that in the pursuit of power, he also loses himself. He found himself callous, no longer caring about the lives of others, and only thinking about how to make the Salt Gang stronger.

Xiao Lu was fascinated by what she heard, Ai Chen and Xiao Lu heard a cry in the sky in the room, and Ai Chen opened the door to see two black-necked cranes circling in the air. Ai Chen: "Xiaolu, our black-necked crane is here. ”

Xiao Lu ran out of the room, raising her hands and calling for the black-necked crane to fly down. The black-necked crane also seemed to see two people, swooped down, and stopped in the yard.

Ai Chen and Xiaolu stepped forward and saw the black-necked crane with a water bladder tied to its back, and they untied the water bladder.

Playing with the black-necked crane for a while, Xiao Lu: "Ai Chen, you write a letter to Aunt Luo and reassure them that we are fine now."

Ai Chen wrote a letter in the room, tied it to the black-necked crane's back, and Xiao Lu: "You guys fly back!" The black-necked crane flew into the sky and flew towards Jingxiu Snow Peak.

In the afternoon, Xiao Lu: "Ai Chen, let's go back!" Back to our Rose Inn. Ai Chen said, "Okay, I'll clean it up." When Ai Chen went to check out, he met Liu Yuefen to see Xiaolu and Ai Chen.

Xiao Lu: "Sister Yuefen, let's go back to the Rose Inn in Jingxiu Snow Peak." Liu Yuefen said: "I'll go back, I just brought five catties of beef here, keep it for the road to eat!" ”

The two of them rode away from Herb Town and galloped along the rugged mountain road towards the Rose Inn in Jingxiu Snow Peak.

In the evening, when the two passed by Xiaoling Mountain, Xiaolu heard the bell of "bell, bell, bell" ringing in the mountain, and Xiaolu said: "How can there be a bell in a place like Ai Chen!" Let's go in and see. ”

The trees of Xiaoling Mountain are green, and the two of them led the horses to Xiaoling Mountain, and they stepped on the stone road, step by step. The stone road winds and turns until it reaches the top of the mountain, where there is a large courtyard with more than a dozen tiled houses, and the mountain gate reads "Nursing Home".

Xiaolu: "Ai Chen, what kind of place is the nursing home?" Ai Chen said: "The nursing home is a place to support the elderly and the disabled. ”

Xiaolu knocked on the mountain gate, and the door opened a crack, and an old man inside, "Where did you come from and where are you going?" ”

Ai Chen: "Uncle, we are from Herbal Medicine Town, we want to go back to Jingxiu Snow Peak, passing by the treasure land, hoping to spend the night." ”

Uncle: "I'll go and report to my wife, Dr. Bao, you wait." After a while, the uncle opened the door, "Come in!" You live in the North House. ”
