Chapter 326

The salt merchants are now in Zhu Xinlong's mansion, discussing what will happen next. Zhang Si teaches them that they are also trying to kill Zhang Hao because Zhang Hao arrested their family. If they cannot defeat Zhang Hao this time, then they will have a catastrophe.

"What's wrong with you?" Zhu Xinlong looked at those people with some ignorance at this moment. Why did he start dealing with Zhang Hao like this now? He also said that he would take out half of the salt to give gifts to the officials in the capital, so that they could impeach Zhang Hao, as long as the emperor dealt with Zhang Hao.

"Sir, Zhang Hao obviously has no intention of letting us go now. We don't have hope. Today we went to a meeting and he began to announce the arrest of people. Are there any officials in the court who do such a business?

This person is an unreasonable reckless man. His name was Zhang Manzi before. We don’t understand what it means. Today we have seen it. So when facing such people, we either assassinate them or let the court deal with him.

We dare not assassinate a marquis, and there are not many opportunities and great risks, so I feel that it is okay to get rid of him in the court. As long as we are willing to spend money, I believe that those officials will still do this. Sir, I hope you will do this. No matter how much money you pay, we are willing to pay. We will spread the money according to the amount of salt seized this time. The purpose is to let Zhang Hao not come out!" Zhang Sijiao said to Zhu Xinlong with a determined face.

He thought that if his family could not come out this time, then his elder brother would inevitably be involved. No matter what, he could not compromise with Zhang Hao this time, and he would be fighting with Zhang Hao to the end!

"Yes, sir, this is the only way to do it now. We can't deal with Zhang Hao in Taiyuan, so let the ministers in the court deal with Zhang Hao!" Another salt merchant also said excitedly, and the others nodded affirmatively.

"If this is the case, you can do it!" Zhu Xinlong also saw the opportunity at this moment. As long as Zhang Hao was defeated, Jiajing would have no way to sort out the matter in Shanxi, and no one could help him sort it out. Only this Zhang Manzi, a person who knew nothing, dared to come to Shanxi to play like this.

"Sir, I think you need to send someone to the capital to do it. Tell His Highness the King of Jin that no matter how much the price you pay, Zhang Hao will take off the position of reorganizing the salt and iron tea!" Wang Chongyi also looked at Zhu Xinlong and bowed.

"Yes, it's time to act. We hoped to have a good talk with Zhang Hao before, but we didn't expect that he had just arrived in Taiyuan. How could he do this? Since he doesn't follow the rules, we don't need to follow the rules!" Fan Tianming also spoke to Zhu Xinlong.

"Then your family?" Zhu Xinlong sat there and looked at them and asked.

"No matter what, only those officials in the capital can impeach Zhang Hao, otherwise, there will be no appropriate reason!" Zhang Sijiao immediately bowed and said.

"Okay, then let's discuss it!" Zhu Xinlong thought about it for a while and asked them.

He vaguely felt that Zhang Hao came here this time not for the salt merchants, but for the people of the King of Jin. However, there is no evidence yet. After all, Zhang Hao was just rectifying the salt and iron tea, and Zhang Hao was not a member of the royal family. Logically speaking, he could not interfere in the royal family.

Then they discussed there,

Zhang Hao also returned to his place where he lived. Now the people from the Jinyiwei are interrogating the families of those people. Their families do not know that their heads have gone out and think they have been arrested. So many shopkeepers start talking about some of the business matters, including how much money they have been sent to the people of the King of Jin every year.

Some shopkeepers don’t know that it’s so specific, but knowing who is in charge, the Jinyiwei goes to the person in charge and asks the person in charge to tell them.

In the afternoon, Zhang Hao sat at his home, looking at some confessions, and slowly sorted out the context. The salt merchants were basically supported by the King of Jin, including who supported it, and Zhang Hao had already sorted out the whole thing.

"Sir, someone who claims to be Yang Caihuan is asking for a meeting! I have seen you once before!" A hundred households came in and bowed to Zhang Hao and said.

"Oh, let him come in!" Zhang Hao nodded when he heard this, and didn't know what news Yang Caihuan had heard, and he came so soon.

"I have met the second young master!" Yang Caihuan came in and bowed to Zhang Hao.

"Well, what's wrong?" Zhang Hao asked looking at Yang Caihuan.

"It's okay, the second young master, I was going to go to find the salt merchants, but later I found out that the salt merchants' families were arrested, and this matter could not be done!" Yang Caihuan bowed to Zhang Hao, and he was actually very depressed. He originally wanted to make the 150,000 taels of silver, but now everyone in his family has been arrested, so why have you taken out so much money?

This afternoon, he also found Zhang Sijiao. Zhang Sijiao was very rude at this moment, saying that Zhang Hao has arrested their family now. If Yang Caihuan can let Zhang Hao let their family go, he will be willing to pay Yang Caihuan.

Yang Caihuan didn't dare to come to Zhang Hao to say who he wanted to let go. He didn't have the courage to tell the matter between the slave and the master. He could still clearly distinguish between the matter.

"It's okay, forget it if you didn't find out. Just take care of your family's business. Don't worry about other things!" Zhang Hao didn't want to talk to him too much. He was here for the office worker, so why did he talk to him so much?

"Yes, the second young master, but the second young master, there is a good opportunity for our family now!" Yang Caihuan said with a smile to Zhang Hao.

"What opportunity?" Zhang Hao looked at him without understanding and asked.

"Second Young Master, those salt merchants have been arrested now. Many salt merchants have no place to sell salt, so our family can buy it. However, they need salt in the court. Now the adults are here to rectify the salt and iron tea, so they can definitely expel the salt intake. As long as there is salt intake, they will definitely make money!" Yang Caihuan said with a smile to Zhang Hao.

"My Duke of England's residence does not do such a thing. Don't mention this matter. Just do your own thing well. You are not allowed to interfere in the salt and iron tea matter!" Zhang Hao immediately said to Yang Caihuan with a dark face. He is so brave, he dares to do any business.

"Ah, Second Young Master, if we don't do this, there are others who do it. Salt merchants are very profitable. Who doesn't know that those salt merchants are rich in the whole of Taiyuan?" Yang Caihuan looked at Zhang Hao with a little surprise and said.

"I know, but you don't have to worry about this matter. Just do your own thing!" Zhang Hao looked at Yang Caihuan unhappily and said, and Yang Caihuan also noticed it. He nodded immediately and said yes.

"It's nothing, just go out. I still have something to do!" Zhang Hao said to Yang Caihuan.

"Second Young Master, that's fine!" Yang Caihuan wanted to talk about the family matters, but when he thought, if Zhang Hao scolded him, it would be troublesome. He still had to find an opportunity to talk about this matter.

"Second Young Master, do you have to serve you?" Yang Caihuan said to Zhang Hao again.

"No, you're busy with your business!" Zhang Hao waved his hand and said. Yang Caihuan had no choice but to bow to Zhang Hao and then left the living room.

After a while, Chen Lian came in and took Yang Caihuan's information over, including the people who appeared at Yang Caihuan's house these days.

"What a bold thing!" Zhang Hao looked at the visitor's records and was so angry that Yang Caihuan actually had contact with Zhang Sijiao and others. Moreover, Zhang Sijiao went to Yang Caihuan's house yesterday, and today he also talked to Zhang Sijiao on the way, and said that Yang Caihuan wanted to take out their family. If the matter succeeds, they are willing to give Yang Caihuan 150,000 taels of silver.

"Send someone to stare at him!" Zhang Hao said very unhappily.

"Yes, sir!" Chen Lian immediately went out,

Zhang Hao was considering these things. The information from Shanxi would be sent to Zhang Hao as soon as possible. Today, after the salt merchants left, they all went straight to Zhu Xinlong's mansion and stayed in Zhu Xinlong's mansion for about an hour.

Then Zhu Xinlong summoned some members of the royal family, and then those members of the royal family left Taiyuan, as if they were heading towards the capital. Now the content of the salt merchant’s conversation at Zhu Xinlong’s home has also been obtained.

They wanted to take out half of the money worth of salt and give it to the officials in the court, letting them impeach themselves and ask Jiajing to take off his position as a reorganized salt and iron tea. In this way, their families can come out, and the salt is still under their control. They just lose the money, but in the future, no one dares to make the idea of ​​salt, and Jiajing probably won't have such an idea.

"What a courage!" Zhang Hao was so angry after reading the information.

"Sir, you still need to be careful about this matter!" Chen Lian bowed to Zhang Hao and said.

"How to prevent it? Is it possible to send people to chase those people? Is it useful? If they want to go, they will go!" Zhang Hao said with a sneer.

"Sir, listen to the advice of the next official. You were originally in the capital, but you didn't like the ministers. Now these people are willing to pay such a great price. Do you think those civil officials are still trying to kill you and impeach you?" Chen Lian still looked at Zhang Hao worriedly and said.

"I'm afraid they will impeach? You underestimate me too much. If I'm afraid of impeachment, I wouldn't let those salt merchants come out!" Zhang Hao smiled and said proudly at Chen Lian.

"Sir, you did it on purpose, and you just wanted them to do this?" Chen Lian looked at Zhang Hao in surprise and asked.
