Royal Gold Magistrate

Inside the Fenghua Building.

Zhou Tie, Qian Desheng, Zhao Lie and others were all sitting in the reception room

Xie Xian sat on the main seat, looking at the stack of documents in his hand, raised his head and asked.

"Is this the information of all members? Is there anything missing?"

The boy nodded: "The shopkeeper, they are all here, there will be no mistakes."

Xie Xian nodded and said softly, "Well, let's go out."

After the boy turned and left, Xie Xian rubbed his eyebrows, feeling a little irritable.

Along the way, he has already told everyone about the general situation of Jianjiang.

After arriving in Jianjiang, he only had a day off, and he led everyone to Fenghualou immediately without stopping.

According to the master's request, the inspection of Yanzheng was an unannounced visit.

This person has no identity and no power, so he can only find the entrance from Fenghualou.

When Fenghualou left Jianjiang, someone had been assigned to manage it.

All members must establish corresponding files.

There may be someone who can be useful here, so I came here to check it out.

However, the result was obviously disappointing, and not much useful information was found.

Seeing his frowning look, Zhao Lie asked, "Sir, are there no gains?"

Xie Xian shook his head.

Zhou Tie glanced at the thick stack of documents and asked: "Old Xie, we've been walking for so long, and there are so many more members. Fenghualou's business is good."

"There are rich people here, isn't there even a salt merchant?"

Qian Desheng, who had been silent all this time, spoke: "With all due respect, I also watched Fenghualou just now, and it's really good here."

"But... I'm afraid I won't be able to catch the eyes of the salt merchants."

"The financial strength of the salt merchants is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Back then, I visited the salt merchants' homes with His Majesty."

"A mansion covering an area of ​​over a thousand acres! Beautiful women like clouds, carved beams and jade bricks, even His Majesty couldn't help but be amazed when he saw it!"

"Jianjiang is only a key place for circulation, not a major salt-producing area. Fenghualou's reputation is not enough to attract salt merchants to come all the way."

"Even if we search, we can only find private salt dealers. But those people are doing beheading business, how can you find traces here?"

"Even if I like this place, I would rather spend more money than become a member."

Before Xie Xian could speak, Zhou Tiebai gave him a look: "Old man! You are the only one who talks too much? What can you remember in your mind at such an old age?"

"No matter how awesome the salt merchant is, it's even better than our Taoyuan County?"

Hearing his eccentricity, Qian Desheng got up suddenly, pinched the orchid and pointed at him, angrily said: "Zhou Tie! Are you finished? Are you going to contradict our family all the way?"

Zhou Tie sneered: "What's the matter with it! Do you think you are still the eunuch with palm prints before? You don't do anything with money! If it weren't for my excellent skills, I might have been killed! I will remember you for the rest of my life!"

Qian Desheng refused to give in: "You are so tough! You can spend money to buy the No. 2 Scholar, how do you know that No. [-] was not bought with money?"

"You're so excited about me, aren't you!" Zhou Tie stared, rolled up his sleeves and was about to go over.

Zhao Lie hurriedly got up to pull him.

Qian Desheng raised his head, closed his eyes, and screamed loudly: "You fucking hit me!"

"Master is going to marry our princess in the future, our family can't kill you!"

"Damn! You still want to go to heaven!?" Zhou Tie's mouth was stiff, but his fist was slowly lowered.

This was not the first time Qian Desheng had shown off to him on the way here, and he was not sure what the situation was.

What if the master really married?This old eunuch's skill in fanning the wind and lighting the will-o'-the-wisp is extraordinary!

Seeing his confession, Qian Desheng sneered coldly: "Oh, you little trash, you have no strength, you!"

"Fuck, you're going to die for me today!!!"

"Enough!" Xie Xian slammed the table and said angrily, "I came out to do business, so there's nothing to entangle with previous grievances."

"If you continue to quarrel, I will go to the government and report everything to you!"

The two suddenly died down.

Zhao Lie secretly gave Xie Xian a thumbs up, as expected of a gentleman!

"Steward Qian is right. A serious salt merchant will definitely not be able to get along with him. We can only find private salt dealers." Xie Xian said.

"Sir, but where do private salt dealers find it? Is there any relationship between private salt and official salt?" Zhao Lie asked.

Xie Xian smiled slightly: "I have also bought private salt in the county. These people can be found in almost every city, but they are big or small."

"In a core location like Jianjiang City, there will definitely be private salt dealers."

"They are private salt dealers in name, but in fact the salt in their hands comes from the official salt farm."

"Otherwise, with such a large amount of salt used in Taoyuan County, which private salt dealer would dare to manufacture so much salt?"

Zhao Lie said thoughtfully: "Even if we found it, what should we do afterwards?"

"Well, so we have to find a thread first, and then find a way to make ourselves a private salt dealer."

"With this identity, the following things will be easy to do."

Zhao Lie suddenly realized: "So that's the case, then what did you find when you looked through the documents just now?"

Xie Xian picked up the information: "The distance between the north and the south is too far, so it may not be meaningful to find the private salt relationship in the county."

"Even if the mastermind behind Liu Xun is related to the salt administration, it's impossible for him to have such a wide range of influence, let alone the north is not a major salt-producing area."

"I have read all the members in Fenghua Building, and there are not many useful things."

"So we're going to stay here for a while, let our people pay more attention, and by the way, check it out carefully!"

"Try to find out the private salt dealer!"
