It was ten days later when Zhang Yang brought the other brothers to transport salt back to the base.

This time, I transported salt along the Yangtze River upstream and up to Hezhou. I have many insights and risks along the way.

According to conventional rules, in faraway places, the salt field is transported to Yangzhou and handed over at Dongguan. For example, the last time, it was directly moved to Dongguan Wharf and sent to the salt merchant's warehouse. The salt gutter was handed over. This transportation task was considered to be over.

Following the last waterway, the ship filled with cargo was slowly sailing on the water.

Zhang Yang and He Zhaoyi stood at the bow of the boat, watching the scenery on both sides of the strait. Since when, this has become a habit for them.

Anyway, there are so many brothers in the salt boat. Zhang Yang, the eldest brother, only needs to give orders unless he has to. He is a leader, so he naturally has to do what the leader should do.

The breeze blew, and although He Zhaoyi around him was dressed as a man, she still couldn't hide the charm of the woman.

However, although Zhang Yang was not distracted by smelling a natural body fragrance, He Zhaoyi was just a business partner. Business is business, and feelings is love. If these two were confused, the ending would be very tragic. How many of the wealthy people were caused by their business rivals with women to make their families fall into trouble.

"Young Master He, we are about to arrive in Yangzhou." Zhang Yang looked at the green trees on both sides, looked at the more and more ships in the distance, and knew that he was about to arrive at his destination.

"Well, after passing Yangzhou, go west." He Zhaoyi's lips moved slightly, and clear words came, every word was gems.

"Let's go west? We can just unload it to your He family warehouse?" Zhang Yang asked. Why didn't he clarify this with her?

"Of course not. When unloading it in the warehouse, the shopkeeper who manages the warehouse will definitely tell my family that the business will be taken over by my brothers. How can I make money? Don't forget, I haven't given you money yet. I can't make money, but I don't have the money to give you." He Zhaoyi's words were so direct and never beat around the bush.

Zhang Yang's heart sank: It's worthy of being a salt merchant family. It's said that businessmen are all profiteers, and they are not businessmen. This young lady who has never done business has such a good way of doing tricks. If she is not careful, she will be played with. She must be careful in the future.

"According to the salt farm rules, we are only responsible for transporting it to Yangzhou. If this trip takes a long time, we will be blamed by the salt farm commander when we go back." Zhang Yang began to make excuses.

"If you want to go, I will give you more fifty taels of silver from your brothers. If you don't go, then I will give you the salt money in the future."

"This is not a matter of just fifty taels of silver." Zhang Yang said. Last time I took my boat back, I gave me fifty taels. This time I was transported so far for you, but I only gave fifty taels. Why have you become stingy?

"Then it's eighty taels, don't let it go!" He Zhaoyi said.

"Okay, then I'll help you." Zhang Yang agreed. Now he needs money in urgent need. If he doesn't give it to him, just ten taels of silver per burrow from the coarse salt turned into fine salt, the hundred taels of silver would be 1,000 taels of silver. Now the development of the base urgently requires money. It's almost the end of the month. The promised wages of the workers must be paid, and a large amount of money will be needed to buy coal, smelting iron, and making weapons.

Seeing Zhang Yang agreeing, He Zhaoyi's nervous mood just now also eased. He didn't pay back the money and used it to pay it back. This is also a common method used by the family. He didn't think there was anything wrong, but if he didn't agree, he really didn't know what to do. If he transported it to the warehouse at home, all these credits would be taken over by his brothers, especially his second brother. Those warehouses had his own spies and he could not hide anything from him.

This time I came out to prove my ability. I must make a lot of money and go back to let the old man see who said women are inferior to men!

"Listen to the boat in front, lower the sails, stop the boat, and be inspected!" Suddenly, a voice came from behind. What's going on? Zhang Yang and He Zhaoyi's faces changed slightly, and they turned their heads and looked back.

A pointed light sailboat, with a bulging sail and a speedy boat, approaching. Seven or eight soldiers wearing Tibetan Youth official clothes stood on the bow, shouting together.

Oh no! It's the anti-smuggling ship of the Salt Inspection Department!

I was afraid that whatever I had come. Last time I was loaded with official salt on the ship, but I didn’t see them check it out. Now, except for the layer above the salt bonnet on the ship, the one below is fine salt. Although the salt is correct, the type of salt is wrong.

what to do?

Seeing more and more ships nearby, Yangzhou City was about to arrive.

Escape? I guess I can't escape.

Then adapt to the situation!

"Drop the sails and stop the boat." Zhang Yang ordered.

The two brothers Pan Yuanming and Pan Yuanshao untied the sail rope and lowered the sail.

Suddenly, the ship slowed down and finally almost stopped.

The anti-smuggling boats sailed over and walked side by side.

Several officers and soldiers at the bow of the boat jumped onto Zhangyang's boat.

"Dear soldiers, thank you for your hard work." Since Zhang Yang was a man of Tsuna, these negotiations were naturally completed by Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang took out a purse from his chest, which contained all his money, about ten taels.

"Mr. Jun, please accept it with a smile." Zhang Yang laughed and handed it over.

"Stop doing this." This time, Jun Ye didn't know how to look at the purse handed over by Zhang Yang, and said carelessly: "Where is the salt ray?"

"Here." He Zhaoyi hurriedly handed over the salt turf.

Jun Ye opened it and saw, "Well, is it from Baiju Salt Field?"

"That's right, we are the official ships of the salt farm." Zhang Yang said quickly. The meaning of this is naturally that we are all serving the government, so don't make things difficult for us.

"What's wrong with the official ship? For the sake of the court's salt tax, any suspicious ships must be searched!" He said, waved to the back.

Immediately, a few people came up from behind, crossed Zhang Yang and He Zhaoyi, and walked towards the cabin behind.

Step by step, they gradually approached the salt bonnet, and the officer and soldier in front had already used the tip of a knife to lift the coarse cloth covering it.

The people in the cabin all had cold sweats on their foreheads. Lu Zhen and Shi Wendang stood at the end, and their hands were gradually touching the place where the combo crossbow was hidden, just waiting for them to find that the salt was under the coarse salt, then they would tear their faces apart and quickly deal with them.

If so much salt is surrendered, these people will be arrested and will definitely be dead.

There is still a way to survive when resisting now, but if you kill so many officers and soldiers, what should you do in the future? That is what your elder brother should worry about.

"Stop! Which adult are you? You don't understand the rules so much, why do you even need to check my He family's salt boat?"

The officers and soldiers were surprised and looked up at the place where the sound was just made.

He Zhaoyi stood quietly at the bow of the boat. At this moment, her image suddenly seemed so tall. Her white little hands were raised high, and there was a waist card in her palm.
Chapter completed!
