Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

Chapter 219: Jiangnan Yanshang Fertilizer

“Yes!” Wei Qi and Cao nodded and promised. They could get to this point and become winners in the deep pool of Yanzheng in Jiangnan Province. Naturally, they had their own strategy and courage. If the great prince really hurt the killer, they would throw a boulder over them. Even if they could not break the spine of the great prince and the Li family, they would break a few bones!

Wu Minzhi nodded heavily: “There is no way to get under the circumstances. The Grand Prince used to pull together more than once, to see how harsh his attitude was towards us. He thought that he would not force us to take the final step. Now he still collects the silver and buys salt as soon as possible and dumps the charges against the officials who buy salt. ”

“Well, we'll do it right away. ”

The other smaller salt merchants wanted to gather silver, afraid it would cost them some work, but for them, it was just a little headache, or something to solve.

Soon after, Qi received a letter from Mu Yunyao to him: "Miss asked me to put together some of the salt merchants for sale?” After a little reflection, I couldn't help but laugh. I have a deeper admiration for Yunyao Mu. The lady is like a god!

Salt dealers are now in a hurry to sell their property, the prices must be much lower than normal, and the industries in these salt dealers' hands are unusual. In terms of gardens, the gardens under the salt dealers, some of which can be compared to the royal gardens, are different in specifications and styles.

In the hands of Qi Fang, Mu Yunyao sent six taels of silver tickets to buy directly from the best garden, land and shop. Zero overall saved at least a few hundred thousand taels of silver.

The salt merchants finally put up 15 million taels of silver. Wang estimated that the time was almost up, and sent someone to notify him where the salt was hidden.

In just a few days, 15 million taels of silver were in hand, and the King couldn't stop feeling excited.

Mu Yunyao counted the deeds and deeds in his hand, and he couldn't stop laughing. It took him a while to pack things up and lock them in the cabinet.

Jinlan slowly walked in: “Lady, someone at the door came to deliver the gift, saying that it belonged to Lord Li, Governor of Jiangjiang. ”

Mu Yunyao's smile faded: “Just say that I have been uncomfortable for two days, it is not convenient to see outsiders, let that person come from wherever he wants to go. ”

“Yes, miss. ”

Two days ago, Jingling City salt tax verification ended, Li Yuan had to go to Yangzhou City. He wanted to come to the embroidery garden to see Mu Yunyao again. But I didn't expect that the dizziness was just right, and rumors of mud sand stealing salt exchange spread, suddenly scaring his soul half off.

If the rumor is true, this is enough to shake the field. Once it reaches the Emperor's ear, it will surely lead to anger. Even the Li family will not be able to protect him. So as soon as I heard the news, I rushed off to Yangzhou City.

On his way to Yangzhou City, he suddenly received a letter clearly stating how officials who buy salt plotted to replace the salt with mud sand to profit from it, and clearly stating where the salt had been stolen.

This letter was like a charcoal. When it landed in his hand, he was restless. When he disembarked from the boat in Yangzhou City, he dispatched officers and soldiers directly to the hiding place mentioned in the letter. I thought it would be empty. I didn't expect to find a lot of salt in a warehouse.

Yangzhou City officials have long been the birds of shock. After hearing that Li Yuan once went to the boat, he wanted to greet him. Never thought, he couldn't even speak in time to say a word. After seeing him go straight to the old warehouse at the south pier of the city, he extracted a large quantity of salt inside. Many officials now have soft feet and can't stand still.

As soon as Li Yuan looked at the pile of salt in the mountains, his eyes rapidly turned into a total indifference. He turned his head to Yangzhou Salt Transport to make Sun Tong angry and drink: “Sun Salt Transport History, are you guilty? ”

Yangzhou Salt Transport brought Sun Tong down on his knees: “Lord Li, what sins do you not know? ”

“You used the time of the court to check the salt tax, buy a lot of official salt, and lied that the salt boat was sinking on the west river on the way, and loaded a lot of mud sand on the boat to impersonate salt, hiding the real salt here in secret, trying to make a profit from it while the wind wave passed, luckily the official got the news early, this didn't make your plan succeed! ”

“Lord Li, I would never dare to think of this. Please ask Lord Li to look into it! ”

“Humph, this officer will immediately go to the court to inform the Emperor of what you have done, and the Emperor will naturally send a member of the Criminal Department to escort you to Beijing to investigate and clarify. ”

Sun Tong suddenly understood that Li Yuanyi was simply trying to make him a scapegoat, so that he could calm the problem of Yanzhong in Gangnam and get credit for it. More importantly, he did a life-saving favor to the salt merchants in Gangnam and gathered a lot of people's hearts for the Grand Prince: “Lord Li, you can't blank-tooth me like this, you have to produce evidence! ”

“The official will naturally inquire into the matter, and the evidence will be sent to the Emperor without further ado! Somebody, put Sun Tong in custody! ”

Soon after, Li Yuan's actions in Yangzhou City passed into the ears of the salt merchants. The people were relieved. It was unfortunate to see that the Grand Prince did not intend to destroy them all.

Li Yuan first took Sun Tong to prison, and then took him with his officers. He reported the matter to the Emperor as he wrote a fold and sent someone overnight to interrogate him for testimony.

During that time, Wu Minzhi went to Yamen to ask for Li Yuanyi, but unfortunately Li Yuanyi did not see him.

Soon after the fold into the capital, it was presented to the Emperor. After watching the fold, the Emperor was furious. Fortunately, the salt was recovered in a timely manner, which did not cause much loss. Later, he ordered Li Yuan to thoroughly investigate the Yanzhou case, and make sure the case was clearer.

Once Li Yuan received the Emperor's sacred decree, he relieved himself greatly. Whoever secretly sent him a letter, in general, helped him a great deal. This is a credit for coming to the door for nothing!

He relieved himself temporarily and wondered how to force the salt transport to take responsibility for Sun Tong. He heard that his subordinates had come to report that Wu Minzhi, the leader of the salt merchant, had asked to see him.

The last time he was worried about how to write a fold to the Emperor, he heard Wu Minzhi's request and was not in the mood to see him. Now the matter is closed for a while, just let go, think about how to squeeze some oil water from these salt merchants, after all, the salt merchant fat in Jiangnan, this is a well-known thing, not to fraudulently, how to treat him with some hard work?
