Two days later, 2,000 catties of coarse salt were refined.

Hu Changsheng didn't go again, after all, the channel had been opened, and he was old, so he handed it over to his son Hu Chun to go for him.

On the side of Shen Yongwei, Zhang He still took fifty Shen Yongwei forward, and the goods were loaded into two mule carts.

Hu Qiang also followed, and the village on the mountain had come to an end.

In the past two days, the news about the fall of Fengxian has swept around Pingting County like a hurricane, and it is difficult for Chen Mo to say what the situation is in the city, but outside the city, Chen Mo has already felt some chaos.

Because of the fall of Fengxian, the county towns around Fengxian also suffered from the seedlings, causing many refugees to go south, and now, they have almost come to the vicinity of Qingting and Pingting counties.

The biggest impact on Chen Mo was Dadong Lake, and there were few people in the fishing team, because Chen Mo independently incorporated Dadong Lake into the property of the village, and when those refugees went to fish, they were naturally stopped by Han Wu and others, and then a conflict broke out, and more than 20 people in the fishing team were injured, but fortunately, no one died.

But even so, after Chen Mo learned about it, he naturally did not allow anyone outside the city to challenge his authority, so he took the brave guard with him that day and avenged his revenge.

But the refugees are coming in waves, and Dadong Lake is far away from the village, so in order not to prevent conflicts from breaking out, Chen Mo allows those refugees to fish, and the fish caught by the fishing team do not have to be paid to the village.

Chen Mo realized that it was time for the fishing team to be on the verge of being eliminated.

Secondly, there have been several thefts in Wangjiazhuang in the past two nights, although the thief was caught by the patrolling Shen Yongwei, but the chaos brought by this made Chen Mo frown.

For the safety of the villagers in the two villages, Chen Mo stepped up patrols at night.

In addition, accepting refugees, Chen Mo is not like a few days ago.

Now, only families with young adults are taken in by the village, and nothing else.

Another day passed, Chen Mo calculated that Zhang He and they should be on the way back, and immediately asked Han Wu to lead a hundred divine guards out to greet them to prevent accidents.

At present, the total number of Shen Yongwei has reached 1,200.

The number of squad leaders has also increased to ten.

Two days later, April 21.

The accident happened.

It rained two days ago, making the road muddy and difficult to walk, and on the way back from Zhanghe carrying grain, the mule cart fell into a pit, causing the grain on the cart to roll over, and one of the bags of rice leaked out.

At present, there are many refugees on the road to the south, and as soon as the food is revealed, those hungry refugees suddenly have their eyes lit up, and they all rush over to fight for food.

A person can ignore the threat of death when he is too hungry to stand it.

Although Zhang He and the others were carrying knives, the number was not particularly large, especially when a few people were slashed and killed, and this group of refugees did not retreat, the situation suddenly became critical.

In order to protect the goods, the escort Shen Yongwei suffered casualties.

Fortunately, at the critical moment, Han Wu arrived with his troops and drove away the refugees, and Zhang He and his party survived.

Zhang He gasped for breath and asked the living to help the wounded brother, and then brought back his brother's body, and beckoned for someone to reload the food into the truck.

Han Wu brought someone over to help.

"Why are you here?" Seeing Han Wu coming, Zhang He breathed a sigh of relief and said.

"It was Immortal Master Chen who was worried about something wrong with you, so he asked me to bring someone over to pick me up, but I didn't expect something to happen." Han Wudao.

Zhang He blinked: "Brother Mo is really clever. ”

immediately scolded and scolded: "Special mother, this group of refugees is also crazy, they are not afraid to cut off their faces with knives, where are so many refugees?" ”

"I heard that the people in the village recently said that the counties around Fengxian were all occupied by the Heavenly Master Army in the north, and these refugees were all from Fengxian's side." Han Wudao.

"It seems that what Zhu Yongzhi said is true?"

"What really?"

Chen.

"Do you mean that Zhu Yongzhi's coarse salt all comes from the salt lake in Qingting County, and recently the officers and soldiers of Qingting County have strengthened their supervision of the salt lake, so that Zhu Yongzhi's people have no loopholes to drill?" After listening to Zhang He's words, Chen Mo frowned.

"Brother Huimo, Zhu Yongzhi said this, the person who originally took care of the salt lake was the official of Qingting County, and Zhu Yongzhi bought off the steward who took care of the salt warehouse, but because of the refugees, for the safety of the salt warehouse, the official who was originally in charge of it was replaced by the garrison of Qingting County." Zhang Hedao.

Chen Mo understood, that is, the person Zhu Yongzhi bought was replaced, and now the garrison guarding the salt warehouse, Zhu Yongzhi has not yet opened up the relationship, so he can no longer trade illicit salt.

Chen Mo's brows furrowed.

This is not possible, without coarse salt, he will not be able to refine refined salt, and without refined salt, he will have no money to buy grain.

At present, Shen Yongwei is completely dependent on food to sustain itself, and without food, it can't last too long just by relying on the food in the village, and if it is not solved quickly, there will be big problems.

His fingers tapped lightly on the table and said, "Hu Qiang, take a few people tonight to take a look around the salt warehouse in Qingting County, and estimate how many people are in the garrison guarding the salt warehouse." ”

Hu Qiang is a hunter, and his latent ability is definitely stronger than Zhang He, and sending him to find out the news is more suitable than Zhang He.

"Brother Mo, do you want to?" Hearing Chen Mo's words, Zhang He and the others could more or less understand the meaning of the words, and couldn't help but widen their eyes.

Chen Mo didn't say it explicitly for the time being.

But in his heart, he already has his own plans, and it's time to make a big deal.

"No." Hu Qiang nodded and agreed.

"Brother Shui, you have to do a good job of compensating the injured brothers this time, don't let their family come to Shenyongwei to make trouble." Chen Mo said.

"Don't worry, Brother Mo, leave it to me."

……

Village.

The mighty group of people entered the village, which immediately attracted the onlookers of the villagers.

When the Divine Guard carried the seriously wounded and dead brothers to the villagers.

When their family found out, they immediately rushed over.

When a woman saw her husband's body, she immediately threw herself up and cried, "What is wrong with you, boss?" You wake up, you're gone, how will I and the baby live in the future?"

"My son, I have long advised you not to be a soldier, you don't listen, greedy for three meals a day, is it so easy to be a soldier? It's good now, let my white-haired people send black-haired people. ”

"Daddy."

There were more and more villagers watching, and they were pointing and pointing on the sidelines, and they were related for a while.

"Quiet."

At this moment, a cold cheer came.

When the villagers heard the sound, they looked and found that it was Zhang He.

He was accompanied by a mule cart, which was full of grain and a basket of copper coins.

Seeing this, the villagers couldn't help but talk to each other and whispered.

PS: Thank you for your commuter passes!
