Mysterious World, I Can Change My Destiny
Chapter 169: Arresting People And Setting Fire
"Slick and slick bastard, you have to swear a few words before you stop!"
The mouse-bearded man known as "Dragon Lord" looked at Ping Xiaoliu who ran away in a hurry, with obvious contempt flashing in his triangular eyes.
It is said that the new official took office for three fires, and he spent so much money that he got the fat man in charge of the Yongding River wharf.
If you don't earn it back tenfold or a hundredfold, wouldn't it be a loss-making business?
"Listen well, you can't lose a single point in the lottery, otherwise...you can try to help the family!"
The mouse-bearded man puffed up his eyes and stared at the gang members who were lining up behind him, exuding his majesty.
Those smugglers with small profits dared not speak out, so they could only squeeze out a smile.
Nowadays, the salt gang has a lot of wealth and support, and they are all living under the hands of others, and they have no confidence in bargaining.
Ping Xiaoliu, who was scolded, looked downcast.
Quickly walked out of the pier and went straight to the nearby Luyu Tea House.
Dengdengdeng, went up to the private room on the third floor in one breath.
Outside, there were two Yun Yingti riding knives around their waists, guarding the gate.
It was clear that the person coming was Ping Xiaoliu, and he did not stop him.
One of them turned his head to report, and then a gentle male voice came from inside.
"Let him in."
Yunying Tiqi nodded and obeyed, Ping Xiaoliu bowed his head and carefully stepped over the threshold.
Next to the window seat, a man and a woman were sitting.
The former White Python Flying Fish and the latter Golden Winged Dapeng were both high-ranking imperial officials.
Intense qi and blood pressure, gathered into a group of majestic aura that ordinary people can feel.
Like a dragon meeting a tiger, it was terrifyingly tight.
Ping Xiaoliu's legs were a little weak, but he was only at the level of external training, and his fists and kicks were ordinary.
"We are all acquaintances, you don't have to be too restrictive."
Ji Yuan took a sip of Xihu Fragrant Tea, glanced at Qin Wugou, and laughed softly.
The blood of the dragon son can easily cause a great shock to the ordinary people.
This is also the ancient times, many villagers and villagers in the countryside.
One of the reasons why dragons are regarded as messengers of gods and worshipped in temples.
Even now, there are many ignorant people in remote places.
They still adopt the brutal way of offering sacrifices to boys and girls to seek blessings from the Dragon God.
"Ninth brother, everything you instructed me has been done.
That bag of money was mixed with...a dozen privately minted copper coins, and no one noticed.
If Beizhen Fusi investigates him and makes it real, the crime is not small. "
Ping Xiaoliu made up his mind and took it seriously.
This morning, someone from Beiya came and claimed that he wanted him to do a little favor.
As a private salt dealer, Ping Xiaoliu didn't want to deal with the government too much.
But looking at Ji Yuan's face, plus the new steward at Yongding River Wharf is a stingy person who has plucked hairs.
The gangs under the opponent are exploited very much, and the days are getting more and more difficult.
After thinking about it, Ping Xiaoliu agreed.
"Private copper coins?"
Qin Wugou's phoenix eyes blinked slightly, looking at the young Baihu who was light and cloudless.
She has a similar temperament to the commander Ao, who is also a teacher and a father. She can do it without thinking.
If you have a fight beforehand, if you can't fight, you can sit down and talk.
"Thousands of households don't know, when the sage just pacified the world.
The prefectures and prefectures dominated the ground and held the right to mint coins, which were not fully recovered until the 20th year of Datong.
There are still many privately minted copper coins and silver ingots circulating on the market.
Just like picking quarrels and provoking trouble, it is a universal pretext. "
Ji Yuan explained patiently.
"I plan to bring in the Salt Gang first, then add fire to the Cao Gang, and finally pull in three and a half points.
At that time, it is justifiable for Heilongtai to intervene. "
Qin Wugou propped his chin in his right hand, and after looking at it carefully for a moment, he earnestly touted:
"Why don't you go to Donghai Mansion with me, the power of the Hundred Households in Tianjing is not as great as that of the patrolling expatriates.
At the feet of the sage, the rank 1, 2, and 3 masters and martial arts masters from the four realms seemed to be gathered everywhere.
No matter how good you are, you will always face constraints, and you will inevitably be restrained everywhere.
The world outside Daming Mansion is vast. Ji Baihu is a cloud eagle that flutters his wings for 90,000 miles, so why should he trap himself in a well? "
Ji Yuan had a smile on the corner of his mouth, but did not answer directly:
"There are outsiders here. You are blatantly digging into Cheng Qianhu's corner. It's not very pleasant to hear it out."
Qin Wugou sighed lightly, turned his face away and said:
"I know what happened to Cheng Qianli, I only beat him at noon.
Alas, according to the previous temperament, I will directly tie you to the East China Sea.
It's a pity that you are a reckless person, and coercion is meaningless. "
Ji Yuan's eyes flickered, she remained silent, and took the initiative to ignore this topic.
Although he might not stay in Tianjing for a long time, but following Qin Wugou to the East Sea Mansion, he would end up being subservient to others.
Wherever I will guard a place in the future, I will be free and happy to patrol Fuzhou.
"The Salt Gang is a government franchise and transshipment business. Why do they gather so many private salt dealers?"
Seeing the condensed atmosphere, Qin Wugou immediately changed the topic.
"That's right, there are two main revenue sources for the Salt Gang.
One is to work for the government, and the bulk of it must be handed over to the master of the household department.
We also have to manage the relationship between various places, and the benefits obtained are limited.
However, due to the high price of official salt and the uneven quality, many people could not afford it, so the trade of private salt was born. "
Ji Yuan had already done his homework, and talked eloquently.
"But I remember that privately cooking salt and selling it are considered serious crimes, and if found, they will be killed.
In the Sheng Dynasty 1,800 years ago, two private salt dealers had nowhere to go.
As a result, the displaced people revolted, causing fires everywhere in the world. "
Qin Wugou opened the window and looked at the busy Lifu at the Yongding River pier and the gang members who were queuing up to pay.
"As long as it is profitable, there will always be people who are not afraid of beheading and are willing to tie their heads to their belts.
It is precisely because the smuggled salt dealers of all dynasties are desperados, once persecuted too much, it is easy to cause disaster.
Therefore, the Ministry of Household simply picked up the salt gang, ate the big head on it, and then left the leftovers from the fingers, which was regarded as a reward for the meat and bones of the domestic dog. "
Ji Yuan put down the teacup and said lightly:
"Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp.
The salt gang used the catching of salted fish as a cover, as long as they joined in, the illicit salt dealers became salted fish dealers and did not have to bear the guilt.
Thousands of households, look at the baskets of goods, with a few fish spread on the surface and handfuls of coarse salt underneath. "
Qin Wugou had a look of surprise on his face, he didn't expect such a doorway.
"What's going on with this count?"
she asked again.
"The salt gang is not a good person to open a shantang. They recruit so many private salt dealers in order to do big business.
Those people go to the wharf to get salted fish every month, then go back to sieve the coarse salt, and secretly sell it to restaurants, shops, and poor gates.
Earn 30% of the amount earned as gang expenses. "
Ji Yuan lived in Nanmen Hutong in Tai'anfang before, so he has a good understanding of the three religions and nine streams of the bottom.
"Now it's 60%, and it's increased by half."
Ping Xiaoliu, who was silent, summoned the courage to answer.
Sixty percent?
Qin Wugou raised his eyebrows and seemed a little surprised.
She had read the relevant dossier before, and knew that 50 catties of official salt were five coins and silver, while private salt was between two and three coins.
The price fluctuates from time to time, but the overall difference is not much.
If 60% is taken away, the profit of the smugglers is actually very small.
"Since the three-and-a-half church took root, the salt gang's business has not been as easy as it used to be.
Especially when the official salt was transported by water, Su Meng had to pay tolls.
Open source and reduce expenditure are naturally the source of the gang masters and hall masters, and the flow of the gang members and leaders, which is also... reasonable. "
Ji Yuan jokingly smiled and said to Qin Wugou:
"Don't look at the 60% of thousands of households, how many people want to join the salt gang to pay this number!"
Qin Wugou retracted his gaze, shook his head and said:
"The Ministry of Household raised the salt gang to control private smugglers, but Zhou Xiao has squeezed him so fiercely, sooner or later there will be another disaster.
Sure enough, after sitting in a seat for a long time, there is nothing left in my head, forgetting the original intention of the day.
It is estimated that the Cao Gang and the three-and-a-half court are the same. "
Ji Yuan nodded in agreement and said:
"That's why it is necessary to sweep away evil and purify the atmosphere.
Gu Jue
So that these powerful local snakes understand that they are only the chamber pots of the court.
Although it must be used, if your hands are dirty, you should replace them with new ones. "
Qin Wugou leaned on the chair, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and he closed his eyes and said:
"Ji Baihu, think about it carefully, if you are willing to go with me to Donghai Mansion, I can recommend you to be a thousand households in a year.
If you don't mind, it's okay to be my face. "
Ji Yuan coughed twice, but still declined.
Compared with Cheng Qianhu, who is at the end of his career, it is naturally better to follow Qin Qianhu.
But unfortunately, he doesn't love this soft meal. The East China Sea is high in mountains and rivers, and there is no protection from the saints.
I have broken the plan of the four gods outside the territory several times in a row, what if I am targeted by those disciples' minions?
"Ninth brother is only a hundred households, but he is so admired by thousands of female households in Beiya.
Even at the expense of recruiting him as the head of the face, there must be something special about him. "
Ping Xiaoliu lowered his head to drink tea and pretended not to hear anything.
"As expected, I'm right! I used to think that Brother Nine was not something in the pool when I was in Tai'an Square!"
...
...
The sun slanted westward, and hundreds of smugglers in Tianjing finished their counts.
Lord Long looked at the bags of silver, piled up like a hill, and couldn't help but feel extremely satisfied.
Apart from handing over 40% of the 60% to the hall master, he exclusively owns the remaining 20%.
In this way, about half a year has passed.
The money spent can be recovered.
"It's really a fat difference with plenty of oil and water, Lao Zhou died too well and too timely."
Lord Long stroked his mouse-whiskered beard and glanced at Lifu and the dealer on the pier.
There is quite the feeling of a landlord and old wealth inspecting his own fields.
These mud legs are his horses!
Work hard to make a lot of money for yourself.
Just when Lord Long was complacent, a panicked voice suddenly came:
"Steward, here comes the wharf... People from the government! A small flag of the Beizhen Fusi!"
Lord Long glanced at the leader angrily, and scolded:
"We are all businessmen, why are you afraid of officials?
Prepare five taels of tea money and send it away. "
He waved his hand, not even willing to come forward.
After relying on the Ministry of Household, the Yanbang considers itself a "family" with the government.
When an ordinary gang sees Beizhen Fusi, it's like encountering a death star, and they can't wait to hide away.
But Long Ye thought that he was supported by the second-rank officials of the imperial court, but he was not too afraid.
"That little flag is very fierce, I'm afraid the visitor is not good."
The salt gang leader said with a bitter face.
"Useless things, get away!"
Lord Long kicked the other side away, looked up and caught a glimpse of the bullfighting suit in the distance, and walked forward with the wind.
"Several officials, what wind is blowing you here?"
Li Yan's face was expressionless, he pushed away the hand of Lord Long that handed the money, and said coldly:
"I received the news that a batch of privately minted copper coins has recently flowed into the market, and I have given an order to check it."
Lord Long shook his beard and said with a smile:
"This is the wharf, those lifu and peddlers are all poor, unable to squeeze oil and water.
They didn't even know a few characters, and their pockets were cleaner than a rice jar with a mouse in them. How could they be involved in the coinage.
If the official wants to investigate, he should also go to a place of circulation like a casino or a bank. "
Li Yan imitated Brother Jiu's usual posture, and with a glance out of the corner of his eyes, his domineering energy was instantly revealed.
"Are you teaching me what to do?"
Lord Long's face twitched, and he swallowed his anger:
"The villain doesn't dare, but the official, how much money can you spend on the pier a day? How can the privately minted copper coins flow over?
If the inspections are carried out one by one, it may delay the loading and unloading of goods.
These big boats and small boats are all transporting household salt... the villain can't afford it. "
Li Yan's eyes were downcast, and he held the handle of the knife with his right hand and said nothing.
After a while, he exhaled a turbid breath, and his tense face seemed to relax.
Humph, what about the people in the government? What about Beizhen Fusi?
Not to be obedient to accept Lao Tzu's money!
There was a trace of contempt in Long Ye's eyes, but he said:
"This official, please give me a face, and please accept a little bit of silver.
The brothers have worked hard to investigate the case and should be rewarded well..."
When he raised his head to hand over the money, the black scabbard suddenly enlarged in his eyes.
"Crack", the voice was dull.
The scabbard was slapped on Long Ye's face, blood splashing with his teeth.
He staggered around twice, and then barely stood still.
The sly and thin face of the rat spirit reincarnated was visibly swollen to the naked eye.
"Beijing Fusi's handling of the case requires you to point fingers!
If you dare to make a noise again, kill on the spot! "
Li Yan was ferocious, and said according to the lines Ji Yuan gave him:
"There are enthusiastic residents of Xing'an Fang who reported anonymously, claiming that the Yan Gang minted coins privately, with no small intentions, so I will come to investigate.
Seeing you push three or four, you must have a ghost in your heart! Search for me!
If blocked, it will be directly regarded as disturbing the Beiya office and will be arrested on the spot! "
Lord Long, who received a scabbard, felt an unprecedented humiliation.
He clenched his fists hard and said with blood dripping from his mouth:
"The villain dares to ask the official's surname? I will report it to the gang master and let him visit the house another day!"
Li Yan glanced sideways, and another scabbard fell, knocking the person to the ground.
"Your grandfather can't change his name, sit or change his surname, his surname is Pei and Mingtu, and he is the fourth in the family!
Some kind of will come to trouble me! "
Lord Long silently kept the name in his heart, and his eyes gleamed with resentment.
"A small flag, dare to be so arrogant! Pei Tu, Pei Shilang, right!
Offend the Salt Gang, you look good! "
Behind Li Yan, there were seven or eight eagles riding on the cloud, gathering a group of boatmen, laborers, and dealers, each asking a few questions.
Then open the purses one by one to check whether they are Datongtongbao.
"Li Xiaoqi, found nineteen privately minted copper coins."
At sunset, one of the Yunying Tiqi shouted loudly.
"These are coins mixed with copper, they are much lighter in weight, and their color is slightly yellow..."
Li Yan picked up a privately minted copper coin, put it in front of Lord Long and shook it, the corner of his mouth twitched and said:
"You have a big deal! Take it away from me!"
Manager Long, who had taken over the Yongding River Wharf soon, was dumbfounded and his face was pale with fright.
He rushed towards the wooden platform like a madman and shouted:
"The copper coins are all paid by the dealers, it has nothing to do with me! The official, it's Ping Xiao..."
Li Yan's eyes turned cold, thinking of Brother Jiu's advice.
Grasp the scabbard tightly and walk quickly.
Lifting the handle of the knife and knocking it up, it directly shattered the jaw of the struggling Dragon Lord.
"Beiya will not wrong a good person, but it will not let a bad person go!
If you have something to say, wait until the yamen to say it! "
Those Yun Ying Ti riding like dragging a dog to death, took away the vaguely screaming Dragon Lord.
Hundreds of thugs gathered on the pier, but no one had the courage to do it.
Against the government, against the Beizhen Fusi.
Even the stupid and reckless man knows the importance of it.
Ji Yuan in the private room of the teahouse stood in front of the window with his hands on his back.
The tall and straight figure casts a shadow, and it has the temperament of the villain behind the scenes.
"The fire is on fire, just tonight.
Lord Qianhu, it's time to see your means. "
Qin Wugou flicked his fingernails, a chill appeared in his eyes.
"As long as the Yan Gang and Cao Gang take the lead, Lei Falcon will definitely fight.
As soon as He Yunchou appeared, I made a three-and-a-half-point selection! "
