When the price of salt is cheaper, there are more consumers. The sale of illicit salt has also decreased, so the tax revenue has increased after the tax cut, which has also increased the people's spending power and the degree of market activity. As long as one market is opened, other markets will also prosper, and the development of this pillar industry is very great.

Liu Chengjun tasted the remaining buns while thinking about the whole thing. In fact, in terms of Liu Chengjun's original intention, he was not willing to be an enemy of Zongxin. Zongxin is definitely a high-ranking monk, and he can even be said to be a half-god-like existence, and he is clearly looking for death as an enemy.

But it's a pity that the person supported by Zongxin was Guo Wei, and he supported Guo Wei all the way to defeat his cousin Liu Chengyou and forcibly seize his own family. Although Liu Chengyou's kid really has no ability, and he likes Hu Lai, and he is to blame for the final ending, but after all, he is his cousin, after all, he is his own family, if he has the opportunity, of course he wants to take it back.

It's just that this opportunity is too slim, and the more you think about it, the more slim it becomes. Zongxin was so powerful, more than 10,000 soldiers of the Song valve actually defeated the Northern Han and Khitan coalition forces as many as 80,000 horses, and the Song valve had almost no real losses, all in the process of defending the city, Zongxin made a move to win.

This matter is really embarrassing, and it also proves that Zongxin is too powerful, and it is not something that ordinary people can deal with at all. Up to now, there is only one supreme master who can directly assassinate Zong Xin, as long as Zong Xin does not die, Guo Wei will not die.

Originally, this time it was nine out of ten, just because Zong Xin was now defeated in the Northern Han Dynasty and the Khitan, and the next thing Zong Xin had to do was of course to deal with Xuzhou, where the Tang Dynasty and Murong Third Uncle were located, and he had to inform them as soon as possible so that they could prepare early, otherwise it would be too late.

It's been more than a month, and I haven't eaten a good meal, nor have I slept properly, all of this is not to get to Xuzhou a little earlier and convey the news to the third uncle. On the way here, I have heard that the main city of Xuzhou and the west city of Xuzhou are quite peaceful, because the weather is too cold, and the strength of the two sides is equal, so they did not attack each other, only a few tentative attacks.

Zong Xin can win with several times the strength of the other party, if the strength is equal...... Then there is no need to fight. After resting again, he immediately rushed to Xuzhou City to see the third uncle. At this time, there was no hope, after the defeat of the father emperor in Weizhou, it was completely useless for these forces to continue to besiege the western city of Xuzhou, or let Li Jing withdraw his troops early, and the third uncle was ready to evacuate at any time.

The third uncle's martial arts are good, and he is also a horse all his life, although his attainments in the art of war are not high, but his bravery is unrivaled. The third uncle is of great help to the unification of the Han Dynasty, so he must not be allowed to die in Xuzhou, and if necessary, he will directly abandon the city and flee, as long as he can escape back to the Northern Han Dynasty, he will survive.

If the third uncle is unwilling, let the family members go first. He can leave Xuzhou with the third uncle's family first, and then send them back when it is safe.

Anyway, as long as the third uncle knows in advance that the Northern Han side has been defeated, by the way, he will tell them in detail about the defeat again, let them know the tactics that Zongxin is used to, so that they can be prepared. Otherwise, Zong Xin directly carried out a sneak attack, and Xu Zhou might not be able to stand it.

While eating, I thought, and soon there was only one bun left in the cage. Liu Chengjun reached out to take it, and suddenly a hand reached over and took the bun away quickly.

Liu Chengjun was taken aback, there are still people snatching buns in this kind of place, and he was about to get angry, so he looked back...... The soul is scattered, and the whole body is cold. The person who grabbed the bun was a bald head, with a good appearance, slightly thin, dragon eyebrows, and on the hairless head, the two eyebrows were particularly prominent, and the scar on his forehead instantly revealed his identity.

Zong Xin said depressedly: "Boss, the taste of this bun today is too light. Isn't the salt cheap lately? Why are you reluctant to put more of it? The stuffing is full of green onions and ginger, why don't you put more meat?"

"Expensive, you have also eaten me for a few days, and now the business is not easy to do, so you can't let me lose money and make money. It's not easy to survive this year, don't ask too much. By the way, did you find the person you're looking for?"

"Found it. Zong Xin replied with satisfaction.

"Congratulations, if you lose someone this year and want to get it back, it's really not easy, I said a few days ago that you definitely can't find it, it's really auspicious. The boss said excitedly: "What are you eating today? ”

Liu Chengjun's face was pale, and it seemed that Zong Xin had been waiting for him here for a day or two. He had a wolf to lead the way, and he was much faster than he was. What's more, this trip is all on the small road, and Zongxin will definitely arrive soon when he takes the big road. Unexpectedly, he had already calculated that he would go to the east gate of Xuzhou to enter the city, which was really amazing.

Zong Xin sat down beside Liu Chengjun, and then said softly: "Do it yourself, or let me give you a ride?" You should know very well about my martial arts, you have no chance to escape. I just don't want to smash this boss's small tea shed, it's not easy for the boss to do business. ”

"Master Zongxin, I have no intention of being an enemy of you, as a monk, can you read that I have the virtue of a good life in heaven and let me live?" Liu Chengjun knows how powerful Zongxin's martial arts are, although he is also very confident in his martial arts, but his confidence is that he will definitely not be able to beat Zongxin.

Zong Xin nodded and said: "The military situation is tense, and the poor monk has tens of thousands of lives in his hands, so you can't put these tens of thousands of people in danger because of you." By the way, you've already looked at this boss three times, and in this case, even if you catch my apprentice, I won't let you go, so this time I didn't bring anyone. If you don't believe me, give it a try and see if I'll show mercy. ”

Liu Chengjun could see that Zong Xin would not show mercy to his subordinates, he was a big devil who killed tens of thousands of people in one move, and he would never let go of himself, the person who went to deliver important information, for the sake of an old man or Xiao Er who had just met. There is a dead end, no matter what Liu Chengjun thinks, it is also a dead end. After all, Zong Xin's martial arts are far superior to his own, and there is still some distance from Xuzhou City, so why should he eat here? I knew that I would rush directly into the city......

However, Liu Chengjun also saw that even if he rushed directly into the city, he would be stopped by Zong Xin. After all, this person can pinch and calculate, and he has been waiting for him here for a long time. Now that I have enough food and strength, there may be a way to live. The only way to survive is, of course, ......

Liu Chengjun gritted his teeth and said: "It's impossible to do it yourself, let me learn Master Zongxin's martial arts today." I'm still very confident in my own palm power, and I see if you can catch it. ”

Liu Chengjun used his skills and directly launched two palms to Zongxin. Zong Xin pushed horizontally with one palm, and under the situation of instantaneous luck, Liu Chengjun was directly sent flying more than ten meters away.

Liu Chengjun stood firm, and then crossed his palms and his whole body was as painful as if he was being burned by flames. Judging from the situation just now, Liu Chengjun already knew how high Zong Xin's martial arts were. He is just a chivalrous man with a little fame in the rivers and lakes, but Zong Xin is a top master, and the two are not comparable at all.

Liu Chengjun said: "But that's the case, why didn't you use your Jiuyang Burning Heaven Technique? Let Lao Tzu see how powerful Yeluzhen taught you martial arts." ”

Zong Xin was also quite embarrassed, stood up from the bench, and suddenly his whole body was on fire, so frightened that the boss and the guy who helped had already hid behind the stove. They really had never seen such a fierce person, his whole body was on fire and he was so calm, wasn't he afraid of being hot? If he also learned this kind of martial arts, he would be able to stir-fry vegetables without burning wood in the future, and that would definitely be very cost-effective.

Zongxin reached out and played with the Buddhist beads he was carrying on his wrist, these Buddhist beads had been ignited by the flames, but they were still the same in Zongxin's hands, as if they were wrapped in flames, but they did not burn. The gap between the two in cultivation is too big, and Zong Xin can easily kill Liu Chengjun, so there is no rush at all.

Zong Xin stretched out his hand and flicked it, and a burning Buddha bead immediately flew out, directly hitting Liu Chengjun's abdomen, Liu Chengjun was hit by this Buddha bead The person turned on his back, retreated several meters, and his clothes were also set on fire.

At this time, Liu Chengjun secretly took out the incense, lit the incense with the flame on his clothes, and then hid behind a tree.

Zong Xin hesitated a little, and then popped out the second Buddha bead, the Buddha bead directly pierced the tree, the original volume of the Buddha bead was not large, but the hole left on the tree was very huge, and the wood trunk near the hole was also burned, the true qi invasion ability of Jiuyang Burning Heaven Jue was very strong, and the tree was still alive and could still be ignited.

Zong Xin turned to the back of the tree and looked at Liu Chengjun, who was covering his abdomen with one hand and holding an incense stick with the other. Zong Xin looked puzzled, why did this grandson think that the matter of lighting a stick of incense for himself was over? Or did he know that he would die, so he lit an incense stick for himself to go to the grave?

Zong Xin thought about it for a while, and suddenly understood what was going on. This broken incense must have been given to him by Guo Wuwei, saying that it could save his life at a critical moment. Guo Wuwei's intention in doing this is obvious, that is, he hopes that Zong Xin will let him live, as for the reason...... Guo Wuwei must have hoped that Liu Chengjun would inherit the Northern Han Dynasty, and if he saved his life, he would be able to have great power and a very high status in the Northern Han Dynasty.

Guo Wuwei and Zhao Kuangyin hit it off at first sight, and for the sake of this first meeting, Guo Wuwei went to the Northern Han Dynasty as an undercover agent. After all, the terrain of the Northern Han Dynasty is very high, easy to defend and difficult to attack. In order to make it easier for Zhao Kuangyin to attack the Northern Han Dynasty in the future, Guo Wuwei prepared to seize the power of the Northern Han Dynasty, and then create conditions for Zhao Kuangyin to attack the Northern Han Dynasty......

Zong Xin understood Guo Wuwei's intentions, anyway, his face was full of doubts, and he just went on with the trend.

"Where is this grandson?" Zong Xin said depressedly: "I clearly saw him hiding behind this tree, and he had no breath...... Is it gone?"

Zong Xin suddenly turned his head and snickered, almost laughing. and deliberately left his back to Liu Chengjun to see what he was going to do. If Liu Chengjun suddenly sneaks up, it won't be a big deal to kill him directly, anyway, Guo Wuwei is already a master in front of Liu Chong, and it doesn't matter with or without Liu Chengjun. If Liu Chengjun is alive, it will be more convenient for Guo Wuwei.
