Chapter 521: Illicit Salt Again
"Huh!" In the public court, the officers and soldiers except Doubing, including the political envoy Gao Xiao and the envoy Yuan Dengmu, responded in unison: "Obey Lord Tao's orders!"
Tao Ziyun raised his voice and continued: "There is no governor for the time being, and in the future, you will have to take care of the prisoners!
"Huh!" the officers and men simply agreed again, and then retreated in turn.
However, Gao Xiao and Yuan Dengmu walked a few steps side by side, and when they turned around and saw that Tao Ziyun did not immediately get up to leave, they stopped, briefly exchanged opinions, and then Gao Xiao came out to Tao Ziyun and said: "Lord Tao, it's getting dark, let's dare to ask, if Lord Tao is new to the city, can you have time to take care of the accommodation? If Lord Tao is willing to appreciate his face, please invite Lord Tao to the lowly mansion and be a guest for a period of time, what does Lord Tao think?"
Tao Ziyun calmly replied to Gao Xiao and said, "I won't trouble you." I'm going to go to the local shop and discuss some other things with them. It's getting dark, go back to your house!"
Gao Xiao and Yuan Dengmu said some goodbye polite words to Tao Ziyun, and then left directly.
Xie Fujun knew what to do next, Tao Ziyun was going to their shop, here, he was half a master, and the time had come to fulfill the friendship of the landlord: "Master Tao, come with me!"
"Well, lead the way. Tao Ziyun left the public case, called He Renzhi, and followed Xie Fujun away, followed by more than 1,000 bean soldiers.
"The horse I rode was brought by the officers and soldiers, and now the officers and soldiers have taken it away. "Xie Fujun knows Tao Ziyun's flying immortal technique, and his own immortal technique is actually quite good," Let's walk a little way first, to a place where no one is, and then fly to our shop." ”
"It's nature. Of course, Tao Ziyun also thought of these details, and he was going to walk to the section where no one was there, and then put away his more than 1,000 bean soldiers.
Now, He Renzhi's thoughts have flown away. He said excitedly to Tao Ziyun, "Brother Tao, I know what you will do next!"
Xie Fujun grabbed the conversation and asked He Renzhi vigilantly: "Tell me, do you guess what Lord Tao will do next?" I hope that Lord Tao will do something beneficial to me and Master Sang." ”
"Haha! Brother Xie is too worried, I'm talking about good things, and I'm not talking about you. He Renzhi didn't say anything in the court, but he was already happy in his heart, and now that there were no outsiders, he wanted to sing indulgently. "I thought about it, Brother Tao impeached Huo Mogui, and he would ask the emperor to remove Huo Mogui from his official position as governor, and then ask the emperor to reinstate the senior official and return to Jiangxi to be the governor!"
"That's fundamental. Tao Ziyun recognized He Renzhi's above judgment, and he also added: "I also want to ask the emperor to let the seniors who have suffered for many years be compensated - spiritual compensation." There is also material compensation. And reminded the emperor that he would do that to show that the emperor is a generation of emperors!"
"Master Tao is scheming! Xie admires!" Xie Fujun purely gave warm praise to Tao Ziyun.
"Hey, hey. Tao Ziyun didn't care about Xie Fujun's admiration, he put away his bean soldiers. And reminded Xie Fujun: "Brother Jie, there is no one here now, fly to your shop." ”
"Yes, yes, it's time. Only then did Xie Fujun realize this situation. He took the lead in taking off, and in an instant, he flew to the backyard of the Sang family's shop, which was already not far away.
Xie Fujun led them to the housing area, this shop. It's dark everywhere.
Tao Ziyun asked Xie Fujun curiously: "It seems that you are taking us to the bedroom to find Master Sang." Are the shops here closed at night?"
Xie Fujun replied calmly: "This is a grocery store, and it is not open at night. In other places here, we have inns, restaurants, etc., and we have to operate until the rooster crows at night. ”
Tao Ziyun is right to think about it, this shop is closed at night, and it is quiet to rest here, and as a boss, he will pick a place to enjoy.
Xie Fujun knocked a few times on the door panel of a room: "Master Sang, I'm back." ”
The candles in the room were lit, and Kumotohara's hopeful voice came out: "You have finally returned with good news. ”
As soon as Sang Benyuan opened the door, before he could see the situation outside, Tao Ziyun greeted him first: "Boss Sang, hello!"
"It's you, why are you here?" Sang Benyuan saw Tao Ziyun and He Renzhi clearly in the dim candlelight and moonlight.
Tao Ziyun was noncommittal, but Sang Motohara politely invited them into the room.
This bedroom is quite simple, with a desk by the window, a chair, a bedside table next to the bed, a candlestick on it, and very ordinary bedding. On the surrounding walls, there are many calligraphy and paintings, and looking at the inscriptions on them, they are just some of Kumotohara's own works.
Because there was only one chair, Xie Fujun had to go out to find a chair: "I'll go to the other room and bring the chair." ”
"You wait. Sang Benyuan stopped Xie Fujun, he accompanied Tao Ziyun and He Renzhi, and sat on the edge of the bed together, and then interrogated Xie Fujun and said: "Didn't the governor ask the officers and soldiers to take you to discuss the cooperation between the officials and the government?
"Well, that's a long story. Xie Fujun brought the chair next to the desk to the side of the bed, let Sang Benyuan sit on the chair, and he and Tao Ziyun sat on the edge of the bed, and described Sang Benyuan in detail about the process of being "invited" to the governor's yamen.
When Sang Moto heard about the experience of Fujun, he was only angry in his heart: "Damn! The governor asked you to discuss business, but he actually wanted to bring you over easily, so that he could catch you while you were not paying attention!"
He Renzhi comforted Sang Benyuan and said: "Master Sang, you can dissipate your anger! You have heard it, Governor Huo was questioned by Brother Tao, so don't count on him anymore!"
"Yes, you've been working hard here for so many days, and you can only wait for this result. Even if I haven't come to cure Huo Moqi's sin, he won't cooperate with you, he's a mediocre official who doesn't care about anything. Just let your subordinates run the business here, come with us tomorrow and go back to your hometown!" Tao Ziyun also took advantage of the situation to persuade Sang Benyuan.
Sang Benyuan replied to Tao Ziyun disappreciatively: "Things are still worth looking forward to! Even if you impeach Governor Huo, I will wait for the new governor to take office, and then discuss the plan to make money with the new governor." ”
He Renzhi sneered: "Don't be delusional, Brother Tao is determined to let Senior Hashema come back here to be the governor, Senior Ha is an upright person, do you think he will come to the official business to do that?"
Sang Motohara shook his head in frustration: "Now, our scheming will be in vain." ”
Tao Ziyun was puzzled and asked and persuaded Sang Benyuan: "I'm strange, is it necessary to be like you? In my opinion, where is not to do business, instead of wasting time here, it is better to go home!"
Kumoto explained absentmindedly: "You have to work hard to do business here! When the business grows bigger and the market share is larger, you will make as much money as possible." That's why we're opening shops all over the country, and we're going abroad. ”
Tao Ziyun shook his head with a smile: "Alas, you are too stubborn. Anyway, if you want to collude with officials and businessmen here, you can't do it, so you don't need to talk about it. ”
At this moment, their conversation collapsed, and after a cold moment, Xie Fujun slapped his forehead: "Alas, I'm hungry, we haven't had dinner yet!"
"I did come back from an early dinner at our restaurant. Master Tao is a member of the official mansion, I thought I would bring the Relief Gentleman to a good banquet. I didn't expect you to come out of the official office and still have dinner yet. In this way, Xie Fujun will take you to our hotel, and let the good students of the shopkeeper entertain you, and I won't go. If you want to rest in this quiet shop and have dinner, come back here, and you can arrange the guest rooms for them. It didn't work out, I'm upset, I'm going to go back to sleep. After Kuwamoto said depressedly, he got up from his chair and lay down on the bed with all his might.
"Yes, Master Sang is right. We went to dinner. Xie Fujun flew away with Tao Ziyun and He Renzhi.
At the "Xiangjiang Hotel" opened by Kumotohara, they enjoyed a hearty meal. Then, without any objection, he went back to the original grocery store to rest, and everyone slept in a room, quiet and comfortable.
In the dead of night, Tao Ziyun got up quietly and secretly went to the warehouse and sales counter of the grocery store to inspect.
With a small candle, Tao Ziyun carefully churned, and found that there was a large amount of salt in those goods!
At that time, salt was sold by the government, and it was not allowed to be sold privately! It turned out that Sang Benyuan and the government and businessmen colluded to open up channels to resell the smuggled salt! (To be continued......
