The Yipu is not far from the inspector's yamen. It is a small yard built by the river, with only six rooms in the kitchen. There are not many soldiers in the store, including Wang Ruhai.

If the state yamen has any official documents to be sent to Hai'an, it will be handed over to the general shop in front of the state yamen. The general shop soldiers will quickly send them to Shilipu in the east of the city, and from the Shuipu soldiers in Shilipu to the military shop twenty miles east of the city, then from the military shops to Huangcun, from the Shuipu soldiers in Huangcun to Jiangyan, then Magou, Baimi, Qutang and then to Hai'an.

If the official documents sent to various salt fields or Dongtai, Rugao and other places are sent to Taizhou, such as postal documents, if they want to send them to Fu'an, Anfeng and even Dongtai after the official documents arrive in Hai'an, they will be sent to the post shop under Dongtai County, and to the south, they will be sent to the post shop in Rugao, and vice versa.

Wang Ruhai didn't know how many documents he had to send from the south to the north for a year, but he rarely received officials from the south, because dozens of miles south was Rugao County. The officials would only pass through Hai'an and would not stay in the remote mountainous area of ​​Hai'an.

Although Zhang Guangcheng is not an official, in Wang Ruhai's opinion, he is more important than those official masters who pass by Hai'an.

He cleaned the best room and even took out all the new bedding that he had already made to marry his son. Breakfast was steamed buns and silk rice porridge that his wife had gotten up before dawn. The tea given to Zhang Guangcheng by the inspector before the New Year was given to him. In short, he took out all the good things he could do.

Perhaps because people are in good spirits when they are happy, Zhang Guangcheng is more generous than when he was in Taizhou. He just rewarded Wang Ruhai with more than 100 cents. At this moment, he was sitting in the room and watching the silver sent by Pan Ergang thoughtfully.

The old servant who came from Hujiaji in the morning couldn't help but say, "Second Young Master, this is a bit strange."

"Why is it strange?"

"Think about it, the four masters of Anfeng, Fu'an, Jiaoxie and Bakcha Salt Course come to Hai'an. It is impossible for them to know that you are in the post shop, but they clearly know that you are here, and they are here to give you money, but they don't come to the post shop, and they don't even send their families to say anything. Instead, they ask Mr. Han to hand it over. Don't you think it's strange?"

"What's strange?" Zhang Guangcheng asked with his head up.

The old servant muttered: "The several ambassadors must have given more than just this little money."

"Suspicious!" Zhang Guangcheng laughed and cursed, and stood up and said, "I'm not very angry when I pay back this little money. Don't think about it. There is no reason why the official in the world comes to see a commoner. It's not strange if the ambassadors don't come. It would be strange if they really come to see me, a commoner."

"Second Young Master, if you investigate where the salt was leaked, how can they not come?" the old servant said dissatisfiedly.

"My father is ill and bullying his superiors and subordinates. They must know that. Since they know, how could they worry about me finding out where the salt was leaked? Even if they are worried, it is only Mr. Huang, the Fu'an Salt Course, will be worried. It is not about Anfeng, Jiaoxi and Basil Tea Farm. How could the ambassador of Anfeng, Jiaoxi and Basil Tea Farm worry about me finding out?"

"Don't worry about why they gave the money?"

"Maybe they are in the same mood as the four parties, and they don't want to make a big deal. If I were the ambassador of the nearby salt farm, I wouldn't want something wrong with my neighbors, otherwise the court would not have a good life."

Zhang Guangcheng thought about it and then said, "What's more, Mr. Han's family said it very clearly. This thousand belongs to us, and Mr. Han also has one thousand taels. In other words, the four families have paid 500 taels to make good relationships and buy peace of mind. Moreover, 500 taels are really a drop in the bucket for their salt officials."

"I know, I'll go there later."

"If my father hadn't been sick, how could I have suffered this mute loss!" Zhang Guangcheng muttered and ordered: "Sixth uncle, didn't you agree to give Li Xiucai two successful salts before? When the matter on Hai'an is done, you will ask Li Xiucai to find someone to go to Hujiaji to transport his two successful salts away."

"Second Young Master, I mean, would they give more than two thousand taels?"

"Uncle Six, do you suspect that Mr. Han embezzled the money he gave us?"

"Who knows people and faces but not the heart, does anyone know whether he has embezzled it?"

"You, you really judge a gentleman by the heart of a villain. You don't think about what kind of money this is. If Mr. Han really wants to embezzle him, he will not share a piece of money with us. If he doesn't send someone to send the money, how can we know?"

Zhang Guangcheng thought about it and then said, "It's not that Mr. Han will not embezzle it. Even if it embezzles, we will not embezzle it in front of him."

"Why?"

"At this point, we and Mr. Han can only advance and retreat together, and we must not have any rifts." Zhang Guangcheng touched his beard and then changed the subject: "Sixth uncle, I promised Li Xiucai to take down the private owls and then divide him into 20% of the public salt. When the matter on Hai'an is done, he will ask someone to go to Hu's family to transport the salt away."

"I really give it, I really give it to Li Xiucai?" The old servant was shocked.

"If a person has no faith, he will not stand. How can I do that thing that goes against his word? I promise to give him 20% of the money. Moreover, this matter must be done in a grand manner, and Quan Xiao and the people of Hu Family and even Hai'an Town Quan Xiao and Li Xiucai made great contributions. Quan knew that I, Zhang Guangcheng, was a person who kept his word."

"Second Young Master, that's 20% of it, not two ships!"

"I am not a three-year-old child, and I can't tell the difference between 20% and 2 boats?" Zhang Guangcheng asked back, then smiled and looked at him, "Give me as much as I should give me, and I can't be petty. By the way, after the matter here is done, he will go back to Taizhou with us. When we arrive at a place where we can't live in Taizhou, please hurry up and ask him to rent a yard near the yamen, and you must treat him with courtesy."

"Second Young Master, he..."

"Don't let him go, do what I said."

...

At the same time, Han Xiufeng was talking to two green camp soldiers who Su Jueming had found from Taizhou in the signing room on the left side of the second hall.

"Lu Daming, what would happen if you didn't go back?"

"Report to Mr. Han, it's okay if the young one doesn't go back. All the brothers in the camp are looking for a living outside, otherwise how can they support their family by relying on that little salary?"

"You are not in the camp, your battalion officers don't care?"

"He wished we would get out of here. He wouldn't have to pay us any salary if everyone left."

Han Xiufeng thought about it and asked again: "What if Shangguan went to the camp to order troops?"

When Lu Daming mentioned this, he couldn't help laughing and said, "It's easy to deal with. I know that Shangguan is coming, so the battalion officials should spend money to hire people. There are coolies in Taiba who carry salt. As long as they are willing to spend money, they will have as many soldiers as they want. In fact, they can't spend a lot of money. First, those coolies are easy to deal with, and second, they can't hire them for a few days. Shangguan will let them get out as soon as he leaves."

You must not have the intention to harm others, and you must be careful of others.

No one knows whether those private owls will retaliate. Hai'an is a small town without even a city wall. The inspection office has a courtyard wall, but the courtyard wall is not only not high but also not strong. If those private owls hold grudges and touch Hai'an quietly, it will be impossible to stop it with Yu Youfu and the big head leading the soap clerks.

Han Xiufeng didn't want to have the life to make money but he didn't want to spend some money to buy the shotguns of the two green camp soldiers in front of him. Unexpectedly, they not only dared to sell guns, but they could afford the money and even dared to be deserters to work hard.

Thinking of the fact that all the soldiers in Chongqing Town seemed to be outside to make a living, it should be fine to dig out the two corners of the Taizhou Garrison Camp, I couldn't help but laugh and said, "Since it's okay if you don't go back, you can stay in Hai'an to serve me. You have two bird guns. The night before yesterday, I seized four shots from my private owl. I turned around and picked a few honest and reliable archers and asked them to learn how to fire the gun from you."

"Mr. Xie Han will give him food, and the younger ones will definitely teach them."

"We must not only teach them to fire guns, but also teach them how to fight."

"Don't worry, Mr. Han, the youngest is just doing this. As long as you give the youngest one month, you will be able to train them into elite soldiers who can fight!"

"Okay, that's it. You don't want to live in the outsourcing committee anymore. You will live in the yamen from now on."

He was really rich to work with the young inspector in front of him. Thinking of the twenty taels of silver reward he just received yesterday, Liang Liu couldn't help asking: "Master Han, do you still lack people here? If you lack people, let my cousin come. He will not only use a bird gun, but also a good knife. He is famous for being able to fight in the camp, and three or five people cannot get close to him."

"Your cousin?"

"Well, he hasn't married even though he is 26 years old this year. He is so poor that he can only go to Taiba to carry salt. Mr. Han, you are so good, let him come to Hai'an to serve you."
