Since this salt introduction has increased and decreased, and there is a danger of losing the cornucopia, the key trick here is really big.

As a result, some salt merchants united and used various methods, such as heavy money buying, such as the threat of force, etc., to control and monopolize the salt in Taizhou.

These united salt merchants are now the eight major salt merchants in Taizhou.

The Li family is indeed the head of the eight salt merchants.

However, the Li family can rely on not only family background, but also strong force.

This is also the reason why Wu Yuan and Wei Yiqing are extremely jealous of the Li family.

Wei Yiqing came to Taizhou with the task of breaking the monopoly of the salt industry by the eight companies, and the location of this gold mountain and silver sea was remembered all the time.

Only by breaking the monopoly of the eight families can others have a chance to intervene.

The reason why the Li family has been able to sit firmly at the top of the eight major salt merchants for more than a hundred years is because the Li family has led the other seven salt merchants more than once and repelled the sniping attacks from the Jin merchants, the Guangdong merchants, the Lu merchants, and even the Beijing merchants.

On several occasions, the Li family even spared no expense to help the other seven.

Helped them through one difficult time after another.

Then lead the eight families to continue to develop and grow their strength, and eventually become eight behemoths.

It is precisely by relying on the help of real interests that the Li family has become the leader of the entire Taizhou City and even the entire Jiangnan, and is recognized as the first family in Taizhou.

Of course, because of this, these eight families have offended too many characters and cut off the way of the children of the family in the officialdom.

However, although the children of the eight major salt merchant families were deliberately restricted from entering the imperial examination, the eight salt merchants were forbidden from entering the official career.

But in terms of strength, these eight families are by no means under the Jiangnan official family.

Although the eight major salt merchants will not enter the ranks, they continue to cultivate their power in the officialdom through marriage, funding and other means.

The entire Jiangnan is woven into a big net by these eight families.

And Taizhou, as the base camp, has been operated by these eight into an iron bucket array!

But if there is a little wind and grass, it cannot be hidden from their ears and eyes.

This is also where Wei Yiqing is troubled.

If he wants to make a difference in his career, he is bound to fight these eight families to the end, especially the Li family is the most critical, but the Li family is too strong, and it is really difficult to deal with.

"If Zidong comes there......"

Wei Yiqing shook his head, he knew that Zidonglai's salt farm was a large salt supplier of the Li family, but this was a normal business practice, and he couldn't damage the interests of the Zi family with his own selfishness.

And although Zi Donglai is kind to himself, it is related to the interests of the family, and he may not agree.

Let's think about it again......

The black-clad bandits fled to the canal, boarded the two large boats that had been waiting there, and threw the pursuing soldiers and catchers ashore.

However, because of the soul chasing incense, this gang of bandits was still caught up by the Li family in the evening.

After a fight, the cloaked man and several black-clad bandits escaped, while the black-faced man was captured alive.

This time, Du Wenxing learned to be obedient, so he stood with Li Yishan, and he definitely did not approach the battlefield.

Li Yishan was eager to try, but Hong Taishan resolutely did not allow him to interfere, and looked at Du Wenxing with cold eyes and murderous intent.

What does this dog day mean, Lao Tzu recruited him to provoke him, into his mother!

Du Wenxing scolded in his heart.

The matter has finally come to an end, although it has not been completed, but for the time being, it can only be like this, and the rest depends on the outcome of the interrogation.

At the gate of the city, when Du Wenxing and Li Yishan said goodbye, they suddenly received a prompt in their minds: "Chivalry value plus five hundred, chivalry value plus five hundred ......"

It took two thousand chivalrous points to add the system sound to stop.

Now Du Wenxing's chivalrous value: two thousand eight hundred and fifty-five points.

Rich, rich!

Du Wenxing's eyes became weird when he looked at Li Yishan, as if he was looking at ...... A hen that lays golden eggs?

Li Yishan's face rose two flushes, why are this kid's eyes so scary, as if he wants to swallow others.

Du Wenxing shook his head, put away the strange thoughts in his heart, and was about to leave, when he heard Li Yishan say, "Hey, little thief, this is for you." ”

A piece of tissue paper slapped into his hand.

When I looked down, it was a house deed.

"This house belongs to you, Miss Ben counts when she speaks, hehe!"

Grabbing the thin deed, Du Wenxing came to the address on the deed in a daze, it was not a particularly luxurious garden-style mansion, just a set of two-entry yards, but Du Wenxing was already extremely satisfied.

He ...... in this life. For the first time, I had a home.

Opening the door and entering the courtyard, Du Wenxing wandered around.

He walked through the house again and again, and his heart was surging, and he didn't feel sleepy at all until late at night.

And this night, there were others who couldn't sleep.

Iron Wolf Gang, the gang leader Iron Wolf lost his temper and scolded angrily: "Hasn't this damn thing of the camel wolf appeared yet? I said that as long as people are in Taizhou City, they need to report to the gang every day, and they haven't seen anyone for a few days?

There were two respectful standing in front of him, and the iron wolf's saliva was sprayed on his face, and he didn't dare to move.

One of these two people is called Long San and the other is Qian Tie, both of whom were recruited by Iron Wolf, and they are the deputy leaders of the Iron Wolf Gang like the camel wolf.

The two of them were also secretly scolding the camel wolf in their hearts, this guy himself didn't know where to go to be happy, but he hurt them to suffer.

"Okay, the camel wolf will leave it alone, and I will punish him severely when he returns. You need to ...... these days," the Iron Wolf finally relieved himself and began to get down to business.

......

The northeast corner of Taizhou, a civilian area.

Scattered shacks littered the area, with sewage flowing and stinking.

In one of the shacks, a lamp was like a bean, and the dim and flickering light lit up the room.

A figure kneeling on the ground was none other than the Cloaked Man.

"Bastard, didn't I say it, these days are critical moments, find more unobtrusive people like beggars and homeless people, and relieve the cold poison in my body, who asked you to kidnap Li Tai's daughter!"

The first one sat in the shadows, and the cold voice made the cloaked man tremble.

"Teacher, the villain also saw that the teacher had worked hard these days, and these beggars were so filthy that they simply dirty the teacher's mouth. I happened to meet that day, so I wanted to get some virgin (harmony) female (harmony) blood for the teacher to enjoy, but I didn't expect this woman to be the eldest lady of the Li family. The villain caused trouble for the teacher, and the villain was willing to be punished. ”

After the cloaked man finished speaking, he fell to the ground, and the cloak trembled even more.

The room was silent, except for the occasional crackling of the oil lamp.

I don't know how long later, the teacher spoke again, "That's it, for the sake of you being injured for me, I won't pursue it this time." However, the few who were arrested need to be silenced, although they don't know much, but they can't be careless. ”

"The villain understands. ”

"Also, let's stop for a while these days, and when the limelight passes, you will disguise yourself as me to go around and suck blood. ”

"However, the teacher's cold poison ......"

"It's okay, I can hold on. ”

A gloomy wind flashed, and the people in the shadows vanished.
