Dressed as an old woman, I carry the system and my son to escape the famine

What Yao Shu said was indeed correct. When she took the initiative to buy private salt, it meant that she was no longer afraid of the government.

The two men did not think of anything more suspicious for the time being, so they readily accepted her statement.

The bearded man nodded slightly: "In that case, you can just tell me how much goods you need."

"I want salt from two warehouses." Yao Shu took out a bag of silver, which was so bulging that the two men immediately widened their eyes.

The bearded man reacted immediately, put away the greed in his eyes, and said softly: "Although our salt is cheap, it is not that cheap. Sister, isn't it a bit too insulting for you to do this? "

"You are joking, these are not the money I spent to buy salt, but the reward to the two eldest brothers as a thank you for their help. I hope the two eldest brothers can buy some wine and relax during their rest time." Yao Shu blinked slightly.

The bearded man nodded with satisfaction: "It seems that the big girl is really on the right track."

"Well, since the eldest sister has asked me, I will naturally satisfy you. Waiting for our arrival at the same time tomorrow, you will see the salt in the two warehouses. But naturally, this kind of thing cannot be made public , so we will disguise ourselves." The bearded man briefly explained the general method, and then the few people dispersed.

After returning home, Yao Shu looked at the Shen family and asked about their progress.

He found that the progress of others was also very impressive, so he nodded with satisfaction.

"But you must be careful. These people are desperadoes. If we are really targeted by them, I'm afraid we will be in danger. No one is allowed to act rashly before Lao San is rescued. Next, we will Waiting for the important person to appear." After Yao Shu finished speaking, she silently flicked the non-existent dust on her body.

The Shen family didn't know what she was referring to. Before they could ask about the door, they were suddenly kicked open.

The Shen family was immediately surrounded by a group of officers and soldiers, and General Ling slowly walked through the crowd with a complicated expression.

Shen Qiu also looked surprised and subconsciously looked at Yao Shu beside him.

Yao Shu didn't react at all. She stood up slowly and saluted: "I didn't expect General Ling to come so quickly. It's beyond my expectation."

"I was the one who was really surprised. I didn't expect that your Shen family was really related to selling illegal salt. You really dared to do such a big thing. After such a long time, I thought you were... A person who values ​​love and justice, now finds out that there are times when he can be so confused." General Ling sighed helplessly, really not knowing how to speak.

He has now determined that the Shen family is related to the sale of illegal salt, and he is increasingly disappointed with Yao Shu.

His face was full of sorrow. After thinking for a while, he finally reminded: "I don't know if you have heard that selling illegal salt is a capital crime. If you are not wronged, or if you are wronged, you can tell me. I will help you get justice. , to solve this matter.”

"Please rest assured, General Ling. We will naturally give you an explanation for this matter. I wonder if General Ling has received a trusted messenger from Marquis Ningyuan in advance, so he brought so many of his people here."

Hearing Yao Shu's words, General Ling nodded in surprise: "Yes, I did receive the news from Marquis Ningyuan, so I rushed here. Although I have a good relationship with the Shen family, after all... "

"But after all, General Ling was ordered by the emperor to thoroughly investigate the sale of illegal salt. Since Marquis Ningyuan has conveyed the news to General Ling, please rest assured, general, our Shen family will definitely not do anything to disappoint the general. . Since everyone present is a close associate of General Ling, I have something to say directly." Yao Shu told General Ling exactly what they planned.

After hearing this, General Ling's eyes widened immediately with shock on his face: "This method of yours is too risky. If something happens..."

"As the saying goes, wealth can be obtained through danger. If we shrink back no matter what happens, we will definitely be more constrained in the future." After hearing this, Yao Shu gently shook her head, "General, don't worry, we need the general now." Help. Just claim to the outside world that you are investigating the Shen family's illegal salt sales, and leave the rest to us."

"Can you really solve this matter? If you really can't, don't be brave. After all, this is a matter of life and death. If you don't get it right, you will be beheaded. What's more, the reason why I am here today , because I want to protect you one step ahead. If it were someone else who came today instead of me, it would be difficult to guarantee what would happen."

After General Ling finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh.

He would not believe that the Shen family would engage in selling illegal salt. Moreover, after Ning Yuanhou's incident, there were still people following him to this day.

"Don't worry, since we can make this decision, we can definitely do it well. I also hope that General Ling can rest assured that if anything happens, our Shen family will bear it on our own and will never implicate General Ling. ." Yao Shu was worried that he would have scruples, so she promised again.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, General Ling waved his hands angrily and immediately changed his expression: "What are you talking about? I have known the Shen family for such a long time, and I definitely know what kind of people you are. Now that you have appeared, If it's over, I will naturally face it with you. What's more, I also have an inseparable connection with Marquis Ning Yuan. Brother Shen is Marquis Ning Yuan's younger brother, and I am Ling Hui's younger brother."

After speaking, General Ling waved his hand and left two guards to continue guarding the Shen Mansion, making a pretense to the outside world.

With these two soldiers guarding her, Yao Shu also breathed a sigh of relief.

Firstly, the safety of the Shen family is guaranteed, and secondly, people who are targeting the Shen family can temporarily relax their vigilance.

Such a way to get the best of both worlds really makes Yao Shu happy.

Early the next morning, Yao Shu arrived at the place agreed upon yesterday, but she never waited until the two men showed up.

Just when she turned around to leave, she suddenly saw Mr. Li's figure.

Young Master Li asked the bearded man warily: "The woman you talked about yesterday looks like this?"

As he spoke, Mr. Li held up a painting.

The bearded man immediately nodded in agreement: "Yes, that's her."

"Why did this woman suddenly want to buy salt? How did she tell you?"

Yao Shu immediately found a remote place and listened carefully to the conversation between the two people.
