Chapter 215: Giving a mountain of gold and silver

Gu Mengyu didn’t understand the difference between Neiulu and Waiulu. She just asked: “Is the matter really that serious? Zhao Ning clearly just colluded with Dong Qingshan, why did he get involved in the Jianzhou Jurchen again?”

This question is difficult to answer, and Liu Peng felt that he could not find a reasonable answer. He immediately asked Gu Shanhe to use methods to treat the captured prisoners. It didn't matter if he killed a few on the spot. However, the result of Gu Shanhe's announcement made Liu Peng disappointed.

These two Jurchen horse thieves came to work with Zhao Ning for more than ten days. When the bandits heard that Zhao Ning said someone recommended them, the bandits did not know the true background of the two and had no contact.

These two people spoke standard Liaodong Han dialect, and they could not hear any Jurchen accent. Moreover, their clothes and even behaviors were not much different from those of ordinary Liaodong Han people. Therefore, Liu Peng couldn't help but explain: "Who went to see if the horse thief had braids or had hair..."

The answer was disappointing. The murdered Jurchen horse thief actually had long hair and did not have braids as Liu Peng imagined. However, Liu Peng still believed in Jiang Qingyue's judgment.

If you don’t even believe Jiang Qingyue’s judgment, then is there any meaning in your life?

However, Jiang Qingyue thought Liu Peng’s estimate was correct, because the situation of the Neiulu is different from that of the External Niulu. Most of them are Jurchen-like Han people and the Chinese-like Jurchens. It is not surprising that they have a haircut: "I'm afraid that this kid Zhao Ning is not so brave, and I'm afraid there is a bad hand behind this!"

Zhao Ning is brave enough to make such a big case in broad daylight, but Jiang Qingyue feels that he doesn't have the courage to collude with the Jurchens, and there may be others behind the scenes. But Gu Mengyu raised the question: "But no one in Dengzhou Prefecture has any contact with the Jurchens..."

Without a local party leading the way, these two Jurchens are not familiar with the place and are just a newcomer. How could they collude with Zhao Ning? Who is the mastermind behind this scene? Jiang Qingyue can’t figure it out now, and Jiang Haotian can’t figure it out either: “This is strange. If I don’t get rid of this mastermind, I’m restless!”

But Liu Peng suddenly thought of something: "Who said that no one in Dengzhou Prefecture has a friendship with the Jurchens and past!"

"Who?" Jiang Qingyue blurted out: "Who has such courage!"

Liu Peng said, "How did the eldest lady forget about smelling the fragrance!"

When Liu Peng talked about the name of the Scent of Incense, Jiang Qingyue suddenly realized why he forgot the Scent of Incense? I remember that when he was in contact with the Scent of Incense, the other party threatened him with the Scent of Incense and Nurhaci.

"It seems that it's the fragrance smelling sect!"

In the past, Jiang Qingyue and Jiang Haotian only regarded the Scent of Winter Sect as an ordinary sect, but after the Lujiazhuang case, the Jiang father and daughter knew that the Scent of Winter Sect was not an ordinary sect, but were determined to rebel.

Otherwise, why would they collect so many weapons and armor?

Moreover, it is natural for them to collude with Zhao Ning. If you want to rebel at the moment, you must have a force. Zhao Ning's group is just a few of the top-notch civilian forces in Dengzhou. If you master Zhao Ning's force, you will naturally achieve twice the result with half the effort.

Jiang Qingyue even thought more: "Go and check the family-killing case in Laizhou Prefecture. Did the other party have any problems with the Winter Sorcery Sect?"

Without even checking, Gu Mengyu had already answered: "I know very well that case. When the Yinxiang Sect came to our Gu family to preach, they specifically talked about this case, saying that the Ding family in Laizhou Prefecture was extremely disrespectful to the Yinxiang Sect. They not only cursed the ancient Buddha's mouth god, but also dared to use martial arts to the envoys of the Yinxiang Sect. As a result, they were punished by heaven and the whole family was wiped out by a group of bandits!"

That's right. If the local academic affairs of the Scented Sect are setbacks, they will borrow the power of Zhao Ning and his group to clean up the situation. Anyway, Zhao Ning only works in Dengzhou Prefecture all year round. Even if the case is released, the Laizhou officialdom will at most issue a few reward orders to Dengzhou, and he can't do anything to Zhao Ning.

The so-called heavenly punishment is actually that if Liu Peng died of a bad life today, it might have become another heavenly punishment in the mouth of the incense-smelling scholars.

When Liu Peng thought of this, he thought more: "So, I think our Changqingshan Changdian Shi may have some problems!"

Chang Dianshi colluded with Zhao Ning very deeply, and his relationship with the Wenxiang Sect seemed to be good. The last time Liu Peng broke into Lujiazhuang, he sent Changshu Office to talk about the big shots. Afterwards, he even stood up for the Wenxiang Sect to deal with Liu Peng.

Liu Peng was so clear that Jiang Qingyue also felt very suspicious: "Yes, this Chang Dianshi is too active in this matter. Even if he wants to make money, he doesn't have to do this!"

Whether it is making money, catching some political achievements, or gaining reputation, Chang Dianshi's operations did not conform to the practices in the officialdom. Gu Mengyu suddenly felt scared and sweated: "Now that Chang Shu Office is the head of the Chang team!"

After she said this, Liu Peng felt more and more that he had found more problems in Changqing Yun Changdianshi!

That's right, Chang Dianshi did not capture other teams, but he had to capture the strong team, and even sent his sworn brothers to capture the team.

The squad is the core and foundation of local force. It is the only team in the entire Huang County that can be pulled out of field battles. In addition, among the three squads, the largest number of people and the most complete equipment.

Chang Dianshi gave up the important task of public security arrest, but he was determined to arrest the team of the squad, which was not worthy of money. Liu Peng felt that he had to see clearly his intention: "I'm afraid he would not be kind to deal with the money!"

Coping with money was a natural thing in the officialdom. No one took some food and drink in his arms, but the problem was that Chang Dianshi's operations were too rough and arrogant. He did not give the brothers below his ranks, nor did he give the people in Huangxian a way out.

If Liu Peng hadn't emerged, perhaps Huang County had already had a big trouble now. For the sects who were determined to rebel, there was a big trouble in the local area, especially causing fierce civil rebellion, which was the best opportunity for them to rebel. Many times, these underground sects would even take the initiative to create severe social turmoil, forcing everyone to get on their pirate ship.

"So, is this Changqing Yun Changdianshi a member of the Fragrance Sect?"

"Yes, you'll know if you check it!"

Although it is a taboo to check Shangguan’s background in the officialdom, if Chang Qingyunzhen colluded with the Scent of Incense, or even a member of the Scent of Incense, then everyone can understand Liu Peng’s actions.

After all, this is no longer an internal matter in the officialdom, but a major matter related to the country and the country, and it is related to everyone's official hat and life and death.

When everything was towards Chang Qingyun, Jiang Haotian issued an order: "Let Ding Zihang lead a team of people to check the details of this Chang Dianshi. Not only did he check in Huangxian, but he was from... he also went to his hometown!"

"No need to go to his hometown to investigate!" Liu Peng said, "If he is really from the fragrance smelling sect, he will definitely expose his fox tail in our Huang County. The key is what to do if it is really verified!"

Of course, Liu Peng said not how to deal with Chang Qingyun Changdian Shi, but if Changdian Shi stepped down, how could Longkou get the greatest benefits in the changing situation? Gu Mengyu was very interested in this topic: "In that case, the county pattern may be moving!"

As soon as Gu Mengyu said this, someone was already shouting outside: "Mr. Liu, Boss Jin Baiwan is here!"

Not long after, Jin Baiwan appeared in front of Liu Peng with the rich and noble spirit of a nouveau riche. He shouted to Liu Peng: "Mr. Liu, are you okay? It's okay if you're okay. Today I'm sending you a mountain of gold and silver!"

Liu Peng also smiled and bowed to greet me: "It's okay, it's okay. Thanks to Boss Jin's blessing, I finally had a chance. No major happens. I don't know if Boss Jin has a big business to take care of me! By the way, Boss Jin, there is too short of salt in Longkou, so you have to send a few more ships of salt over there!"

Speaking of which, transporting salt from Liaodong to Longkou is a very profitable transaction. In terms of profit margin, Liu Peng was very satisfied. He could make at least 50% of the profit with just a change of hand. The only thing that made him dissatisfied was Jin Baiwan's supply capacity.

That's right, he had deduced with Ma Linian before, thinking that the supply capacity of Jin Baiwan must be a bottleneck, but even Liu Peng did not expect that Jin Baiwan's supply capacity was so limited. At first, Jin Baiwan could only transport twenty or thirty stones of salt at a time, and it was not transported by his own ship, but could only transport it on other people's merchant ships. Later, he became brave and could transport fifty or sixty stones of salt at a time or more private salt at a time, and he would also transport it on Jin Baiwan's own merchant ship, but the amount of shipments at one time never exceeded one hundred stones.

The Jin Baiwan method looks very safe. The Liaodong goods shipped can be used to make money without losing money, while the 50 or 60 stones of salt can be used to make huge profits. However, the problem is that as Liu Peng pointed out, the quantity is too small, so small that it cannot meet Liu Peng's needs at all, nor can it meet Jin Baiwan's appetite.

Salt is a commodity. Although the profit is high, it must be calculated in the unit of stone. Unlike raw silk, it is often calculated in two, and it must be used to make a lot of money. Fifty or sixty stones may meet the needs of a village or even a small town for a whole year, but for Liu Peng, this amount of salt is not enough to even plug the teeth.

His catch workshop is now in a surprisingly good business. He has to deal with countless catches every day, including fish tofu, fish balls, fish paste, dried fish... The salt brought by Jin Baiwan cannot even meet the needs of his catch workshop. Liu Peng has to try every means to find a way to get private salt and official salt. He now made further requests to Jin Baiwan: "Boss Jin, you have to transport at least a whole ship of Liaodong salt for me a month. I know that you have a way out in Liaodong, and the navy dare not stop your ship."
