Chapter 231: Dispute
After Li Xiake heard the names of Fang Jie and Wang Yin, he sensed the other party's martial arts cultivation again, and he had already guessed the identities of their group of people.
Fang Jie's age is only seventeen or eighteen years old, and Wang Yin, who follows him, although he has a beard, is only about twenty-seven or eighteen, they are all young and middle-aged, and their internal cultivation is extremely profound, which is not much better than Lu Zhishen.
can have such a cultivation and the name is so familiar, Li Xiake can naturally guess the identity of these people.
In the original storyline, Liang Shan accepted Zhao'an and attacked Fang La's rebel army, and Fang La's subordinates also had many masters, the most well-known of which was Shangshu Wang Yin, Nanli General Shi Bao, Baoguang Rulai Deng Yuanjue, Imperial Nephew Fang Jie, Xiaoyang Youji Pang Wanchun and others, these people are no worse than Liangshan's top masters, except for Lu Junyi, the rest of the Liangshan heroes want to defeat them head-on, I'm afraid it will be difficult to do.
Especially Wang Yin, when the two armies were fighting, he killed several Liangshan heroes by himself, and in the end, it was Lin Chong and Huang Xin and other five or six people who besieged him and stabbed him to death. If he fights Wang Yin one-on-one, there are really few people who can beat him.
It's just that Wang Yin, who was talking about the deal with Li Xiake at this time, had a calm face, just in the prime of life, although he was tall, but he didn't have a strong look, he spoke slowly and softly, and he didn't look like a martial artist.
But Fang Jie, who was next to Wang Yin, was in a different situation, extremely handsome, with an extremely hard face, a thin waist, more than eight feet tall, and bright eyes when he spoke.
Li Xiake didn't expect to meet the people around Fang La in Taibai Building, which was quite interesting, but he didn't expect that Fang La had already started his preparations for the great cause of rebellion at this time, selling grain from the south to the north, I am afraid that it is not only to buy grain, there should be other activities.
They were extremely interested in Li Xiake's trade in exchanging salt for grain, and at this time, the most profitable thing was the sale of illicit salt, and the smuggling of iron tools, so there were several blacksmiths who did not die of hunger.
In some of the traversal history that Li Xiake saw in his previous life, there are many protagonists who take the first step to make a fortune is to dry salt, this is because in this era, salt is indeed the most profitable industry, and the most common is the most suitable, Li Xiake doesn't want to do anything too complicated to make money, just a sale of illicit salt, which is roughly enough for him to feed a large number of people.
After negotiating with Wang Yin and others, everyone was full of food and drink, and they were about to go downstairs to trade, at this time the footsteps sounded, and the drunkard who had just been beaten by Yang Zaixing led a few people who looked like servants to come over, blocked the door, and looked at Wang Yin, Fang Jie and others and scolded: "Enter your mother, the old man who beat me is so miserable!"
He said to a few servants around him: "Brothers, I was injured by this person just now, these thieves are armed with sharp weapons, and they are not good people at first glance, and I ask you to arrest them and send them to the government, and my brother will invite you to eat and drink at that time! There is also a little boy, hey, why don't you see anyone?"
The five or six errand servants smiled, shook the chains in their hands, and walked towards Li Xiake and the others step by step, shouting for the first person: "Someone reported that you wantonly hurt people, and follow us to the mansion!"
Fang Jie's face was angry, he glanced at the drunk man who led the way, and was about to scold, but was pulled by the entourage next to him, and said in a low voice: "Young master, the master has ordered, you are not allowed to cause trouble." ”
Wang Yin hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed the hand of the chief officer, quietly stuffed in a piece of silver, and said with a smile: "A few adults, the villains just drank too much wine, a little gaffe, maybe we inadvertently offended this brother just now, it is really not our intention, please be aware of it!"
The led messenger grabbed the silver ingot handed by Wang Yin, secretly glanced at it from between his fingers, was overjoyed, pretended to cough a few times, and said: "You can pay more attention in the future, even if you are drunk, you can't beat people indiscriminately!"
Wang Yin bowed his head and bowed, his expression was respectful, and he said with a smile: "Don't dare!
When the drunkard who had brought the men saw that the servants had turned around and were about to go downstairs, he was a little unresponsive and shouted, "Yay, brother, aren't you going to arrest them?
The officer at the head smiled and said, "People haven't broken the law, what are you going to catch?" Okay, come down with us!"
At that moment, the drunk man was dragged down from the restaurant and gradually went away.
Seeing these people leaving, Wang Yin sighed and looked at Li Xiake: "Corrupt officials and corrupt officials, a nest of snakes and rats, hehe, Prince Song is a good emperor!"
Li Xiake said lightly: "If you are the emperor, how will you govern the country?"
Wang Yin was stunned for a moment and said with a smile: "I just said it casually, why should Mr. take it seriously." ”
Li Xiake said: "I just asked casually. ”
Wang Yin laughed a few times dryly, and said, "Let's go down below and see how our goods are?"
He hurried out the door, led the people down the restaurant, and went to the river to see the rice on their boat.
Lu Zhishen called Zhu Gui, who had been waiting downstairs, and followed Wang Yin, Fang Jie and others to the merchant ship on the side of the canal.
Zhu Gui opened a restaurant, and he knew at a glance the advantages and disadvantages of rice, flour, grain and oil, so he checked it out at the moment, bargained with Wang Yin and others, and bought 1,000 stone of rice at a price lower than 30% of the market.
The amount of rice on Fang Jie and the others' ship was not enough, and when they got together, it was only 500 stones, so they could only pay Fang Jie 500 stone of silver, and the rest would be paid after it was shipped.
The Grand Canal leads directly to Liangshanbo, and at that moment Zhu Gui called the soldiers nearby, asked them to come out of the boat, load the grain onto the boat, and lift the boatload to the Golden Beach Wharf under Liangshan, and then let the soldiers on the mountain pick up the grain to the mountain for storage.
It took two days of hard work to bring all the grain back.
In the past few days, it has snowed heavily, and the snowflakes are like chicken feathers, falling on the ground with a loud sound, it is really a lot of snow!
It was just one night, and it was submerged for a hundred miles, and it was three feet deep.
Fang Jie and dozens of his entourage had never seen snow, and when they saw the heavy snow this time, they were extremely surprised and excited.
"Mr. Li, this grain crosses the canal and the Yellow River, and the government has a strong tax card, so the price of grain is not low, and if you go by sea, you can save a lot of money. ”
After vacating all the rice in the cabin, Wang Yin found Li Xiake and said with a smile: "If you can, the villains really want to see the salt pan that Mr. said." ”
Li Xiake said with a smile: "I can't see it this year, and I have to next year at the latest." ”
Fang Jie said: "Next year, next year, Mr. Li, I have been in Jiangnan for a long time and rarely come to Jiangbei, can I play near Liangshanbo for a few days?"
Li Xiake smiled: "What is this? If a few people want to play, I will send a few people to accompany them!"
At that moment, Gongsun Sheng, Wu Yong and others were called, and accompanied Fang Jie and others to enjoy the snow scenery and hunt for picnics.
The rest of the people were sent out by Li Xiake to help the victims in the entire Jeju Prefecture, and they were pulled to the vicinity of Yangsanbo to temporarily survive.
On this day, Fang Jie, Gongsun Sheng and others beat a hare in Dulonggang, and they were about to return, but they were stopped by several hunters and said: "This place is Dulonggang, and the rabbit is naturally from Dulonggang, people can go, but the rabbit has to stay!"
Fang Jie was furious: "Near Liangshanbo, there are still such bullies? Mr. Gongsun, don't you have anyone to come out and take care of it?"
The hunters all laughed: "Eight hundred Liangshan Bo, it is indeed not small, but the bandits in Liangshan are not very big, looking at your appearance, it must be a gang of Liangshan thieves, and they caught you and sent them to the government to receive a reward." ”
He shouted and surrounded the crowd.
Wang Yin looked at Gongsun Sheng beside him: "Mr. Gongsun, how to deal with this matter?"
Gongsun Sheng sighed and looked at a group of hunters: "Everyone, aren't you afraid of offending my Liangshan?"
The leader of the Orion smiled and said, "How many capable people can there be in Liangshan Bandits, can they compare to our Zhujiazhuang?"
