Chapter 261 Businessman

It was night, Du Zhixin had a banquet with ginger rice in Qingfulou, and the host and guest had a great time.

In his view, this is a statement to the salt merchants that the Wu family salt shop has received the support of the county government, and warns the Lu family and the Yin family not to engage in such petty tricks, and the business affairs should be resolved in the business field .

During this small banquet, Yan Yunyun sat with him halfway through, saying that he couldn't drink enough, so he left early.

She seems to be doing it on purpose.

In the past, she was a prostitute, and it was obviously impossible for her to come and go whenever she wanted to drink with her guests.It was different now, no one at the table could force her.

She came out of Qingfulou, and took a deep breath on the stone steps, as if feeling some kind of freedom.

Faintly, there is also a sense of power to control the fate of others.

She walked all the way through the long street and arrived at the county government office.

……

Li Xia is talking with Han Chengxu in the public house.

"A Lang, father." Yan Yunyun saluted with a somewhat reserved expression.

Li Xia said: "Why are you here tonight? Are you in trouble?"

"No, I just want to report the progress of the matter to Alang."

"Alright." Li Xia said, "Let's talk."

"I'm going to kill Du Zhixin. Wu Hou is a reckless person. This time we have made him think that we will settle for him if there is a big incident in Qingfu. He will probably smash the salt shop of Lu's house indiscriminately." , or even more. If they move their hands, they can't stop if they want to..."

"Will Wu Tong come in person?"

"I tried my best to force him to come, and let him personally destroy the salt merchants. We'll kill people with a knife."

Li Xia thought for a while, and said, "I don't care what you do this time, in short, grasp the salt industry in Qingfu County as soon as possible."

"Yes."

"Just to remind you, you should use the means of doing business in the future." Li Xia said again: "It is the simplest and straightforward way to kill people and steal money, but if you use it too much, it will backfire, just like you used to rely on your beauty."

Yan Yunyun lowered her head, deeply touched.

She thought for a while, and asked: "Then when the Wu family and the Lu family make their move, how about we buy the salt shop of the Yin family first?"

Han Chengxu suddenly smiled, and exchanged glances with Li Xia.

"What does Mr. Han think?"

"Yes." Han Chengxu said: "But in this way, there will not be much money in the account."

"You should be willing to spend the money." Li Xia looked at Yan Yunyun and said, "Let's do it like this."

"Alang, don't you leave it to your father? Are you afraid that I will run away with such a large sum of money?" Yan Yunyun asked.

She seemed to be sneaking a glance at Li Xia, as if she wanted to hear him say "I believe in you" or something like that.

But Li Xia just said indifferently: "You can't run away. If you dare to run, I will kill you no matter how far away you are."

"Don't dare."

Yan Yunyun lowered her head, a little disappointed.

She couldn't tell what she came here for, maybe besides reporting information, she also wanted to hear the appreciation from Li Xia or Han Chengxu.

It's a pity they didn't, it was always calm.

But they didn't shy away from her, and continued to talk about things calmly.

"After the money is spent, it is best to benefit from the salt industry within a month. Right now, everything is at the beginning, and there are many places where money is needed."

"How much does Mr. Han think the salt industry will earn in a year?"

"40 to [-] guan. However, if the business of Junlian Prefecture and the Wumeng tribe to the south is also snatched, there should be more than [-] guan. A Lang is different from Wu Tong, A Lang doesn't need to manage anyone."

"Then this is about the same as Xin Qiji Liquor's official camp?"

"No, private salt is more profitable. Xin Qiji is buying a wine business all the way in Hunan, while Alang only sells salt in one county, one prefecture."

"If you sell salt to Wumeng, can you open up a smuggling route to Dali at the same time?"

"It still needs to be done step by step."

"Yeah... where did you just say?"

"The landlord's attitude, it seems that after Jiang Wei was almost accused of being the murderer of Tang Ergeng, the landlord has not interfered with private salt matters..."

Yan Yunyun stood aside, turned on the lights for them, and poured tea again.

She felt that feeling on New Year's Eve came back again, she couldn't tell what it was like, but she was no longer wandering and helpless...

~~
In Qingfulou, a banquet is about to end.

"Haha, Brother Wu Hou, let me tell you... I think the Lu family may have sneaked into Mongolia."

"is it?"

"Really, the last time I searched for the Quanzhen sect assassins from the north, they were hiding in Lu's house."

Wu Hou said: "Then Team Leader Jiang should let Li Xianwei inspect Lu's house!"

"No, no." Jiang Fan waved his hand and said, "What does that sound like? People will say Li Xianwei murdered his life for money, which is not good for the official reputation."

"What are you afraid of? Are officials still afraid of the people?"

"No way, how could the county magistrate attack the big family under the rule? It's not good to hear it. By the way, didn't Wu Xunjian fight against Mengta? He also made meritorious service, but he can send someone over."

"Is it okay?" Wu Hou asked.

Jiang Fan said: "How dare the imperial court care about the conflict between Jiyi Prefecture and the salt merchants? I heard that the Mongolian army attacked from Yunnan this time, and the imperial court is eager to win over the Tibetan soldiers of all ethnic groups in southern Sichuan."

Wu Hou became interested and said, "Shopkeeper Du, what do you think? I think it can be done!"

Du Zhixin hurriedly said: "There's no need to do this, no, no, I'm a businessman."

"Hahaha, yes, businessman... Tonight, shopkeeper Xie Du will entertain you. I have to go. It's late at night."

"Jiang Bantou, walk slowly."

Amid the laughter, Jiang Fan bid farewell to Du Zhixin, Wu Hou and others, turned around and left.

Jiang Fan was quite drunk and staggered.

"Hahaha... don't need help, I can walk..."

After walking a long distance, the man supporting him whispered, "Brother, I suddenly thought of something."

"Say."

"The last time we did Zhang Yuanming after the banquet in Qingfulou."

"So what?"

"If we do Du Zhixin again tonight, how unlucky is Qing Fulou? People will say that those who have eaten a banquet here will die easily."

"Young mother, talk to me about irrelevant things."

Jiang Fan burped, stood up, and looked very sober in the night.

He felt that the two murders were actually the same, the last time was for the land, this time for the salt industry.

The difference is that this time it is done again, and the way for the county lieutenant to get money is completely opened.

"Go ahead..."

~~
Yan Yunyun walked out of the county office.

She took off the Iroha mask on her face and put on the mask of an evil spirit.

"Not good enough," she murmured.

After listening to the conversation between Li Xia and Han Chengxu tonight, she realized that they have greater ambitions, at least to become the local leader of the entire Syria.

Then the plan she made for this little private salt would seem too mother-in-law.

Han Qi'an was more straightforward in getting rid of Zhang Yuanming last time.

~~
Wu Hou returned to his residence half-drunk and half-awake, and couldn't help but smirk twice.

"Hey...salt smuggling, decapitation is a serious crime, and he is a 'businessman' all day long, a fool shopkeeper... I am afraid of the people who come here..."

He spat on the ground to show his disdain for Du Zhixin, and then fell asleep on the bed.

Sleeping until midnight, I suddenly heard a scream.

"what!"

Wu Hou woke up suddenly, and rushed to Du Zhixin's room. Looking around, he saw Du Zhixin lying in a pool of blood, with knife holes all over his body.

Leaning down to check, Du Zhixin was out of breath.

"Damn! This is too much!"

Wu Hou roared angrily, and picked up a man who rushed over.

"Go! Go back to Junlian and tell brother, bring someone to destroy these salt merchants! And do a shitty business..."
