The Only Favorite Ugly Husband

Most of the people in the Hongjiang Salt Field were Daqi people, but there were a few who could tell at a glance that they were not Daqi people.

When Jiang Zhen saw those people, he was startled, and now he asked Fang Qilai without hesitation.

"Boss, those people you mentioned should be Oriental wanderers." Fang Qi immediately said when he heard Jiang Zhen's question.

"Oriental rogue?" Jiang Zhen frowned slightly. He could understand what those people said, and it was not much different from one of the three foreign languages ​​he knew. He didn't know how these people appeared in Daqi.

Seeing that Jiang Zhen was a little confused, Fang Qi immediately explained.

People outside of Daqi are called Yi people by the people of Da Qi, and these ronin are one of the Yi people.

They originally lived on a small island in the East China Sea. Because of the endless wars in their country, many people could not survive in their own country, so they crossed the sea and came here to seek a living.

"Boss, those oriental rogues work hard, and Hongjiang Saltworks likes to use them." Fang Qi added that such oriental rogues are quite common at the seaside.

Jiang Zhen asked Fang Qi some questions. After thinking about it, he understood that the Hongjiang Salt Farm was good, so why did he treat the salt households under his command badly? This probably has something to do with these oriental wanderers.

It has been 300 years since the founding of Daqi, and it has been more than 200 years since Hongjiang Saltworks appeared. There may not be many salt households at the beginning, but as time goes by, these salt households married and had children and reproduced, and the number has increased.

Originally, Hongjiang Saltworks still needed them to boil salt and cook salt. Even if they thought it was not worthwhile to raise so many people, it was still good for them. But over the years, more and more oriental vagrants have come here.

These oriental wanderers used to have a bad life on their small island. After arriving here, as long as they are given food, they will work very hard, and they are even willing to fight with others. That’s all, they still have no family Those who are dragged down—those who are not afraid of being killed at sea are basically men.

With such a good labor force, the people in Hongjiang Salt Farm naturally began to be dissatisfied with those salt households with their families, and they didn't have any worries when they attacked the salt households.

Anyway, they are not short of manpower.

After figuring out the reason, Jiang Zhen didn't know how to evaluate the current messy situation.

However, this is not the time to think about these things, they have to think about how to deal with that group.

Such a group of people can't be left to continue killing and harming the common people... Jiang Zhen couldn't help frowning when he thought of the tragic situation of the women Shuang'er who were brought by this group of people.

In this ancient time, the fate of women and Shuang'er was always beyond their control, and if they were not careful, they would be extremely miserable... His pearl...

Thinking that Zhao Mingzhu might also encounter misfortune in the event of war in the future, Jiang Zhen's mood became extremely bad, and he became more determined on the path he wanted to take.

Jiang Zhen discussed the countermeasures with his subordinates, and then found a place to eat and sleep to refresh himself.

In the middle of the night that day, Jiang Zhen woke up all his subordinates, and then a group of people quietly approached the group's camp.

Obviously, among this group of people, the status of those oriental ronin is not high, and it is those oriental ronin who are keeping watch this night.

It was already early morning, and the night watchmen were already drowsy. Jiang Zhen knocked on the wood a few times in the dark, and the people under him quietly leaned over, and finally covered the faces of the night watchmen. snout, and cut their throats with a knife.

The number of people in that group of Hongjiang Saltworks was about the same as that of Jiang Zhen and others. They used to sneak attack at night before killing all the people in the village where Fang Qi was located. Now, Jiang Zhen led people to attack them.

The group was wiped out quickly due to mental calculations or unintentional calculations. No one under Jiang Zhen's hands died, and only seven or eight people were injured.

Even if the rescued woman Shuang'er was not from Fang Qi's village, she was nearby. Jiang Zhen asked Fang Qi to talk to them, and arranged for someone to clean the battlefield.

"All the injured come to my side." Jiang Zhen said, after a few injured people came over, he took out a skin bag and pulled out the plug on it.

A strong aroma of wine wafted away immediately.

"Boss?" Jiang Ming was also one of the injured, and now he looked at Jiang Zhen in surprise.

He knew this wine, it was Qingfeng wine that many people in Fucheng couldn't even buy it!Jiang Zhen called them over and took out the Qingfeng Wine. Is this intended to drink this wine for the injured people like them?

In fact, Jiang Ming has never drank much wine, and he doesn't have much interest in wine, but as long as he thinks that this is the wine that the magistrates are thinking about, he especially wants to have a sip.

however……

Jiang Zhen aimed the wine bag at the wound on Jiang Ming's hand, and poured it...

Jiang Ming suddenly let out a scream, which was no different from the pig's cry when Jiang Zhen used to kill pigs.

The people who were cleaning the battlefield were startled when they heard the words. The Shuang'er who was talking to Fang Qi, who was taken away from the same village as him and was rescued by them, huddled subconsciously, trembling stand up.

"Boss, what are you doing?" Jiang Ming was speechless, his boss poured wine on his wound, did he intentionally torment him?

Also, how could such precious wine be poured on his wound casually? It's too wasteful!

"It's for your own good." Jiang Zhen glanced at him, asked him to bandage himself, and then let the next one come over.

Jiang Ming also knew that it must be for his own good, so he kept quiet for now.

However, Jiang Ming was extremely depressed when he saw that the people in the back all gritted their teeth and didn't make a sound because of him as a demonstration.

When the battlefield is cleaned up and the wounds are bandaged, it will be dawn.

These people in Hongjiang Saltworks are the lowest level, and they don't have much money, but for Jiang Zhen, killing them is also of great benefit.

The people in Hongjiang Saltworks all had badges to prove their identity. Now that he got some badges, he could pretend to be his own when he met people from the saltworks in the future, and avoid unnecessary disputes.

After burying the body on the spot, Jiang Zhen packed up his things and continued on his way.

He didn't drive away the women they saved, Shuang'er, but he didn't slow down the speed either.

These women and Shuang'er are all from the fishing village by the sea, and they probably have been working all the time. Although the walk was difficult, they still followed. When Jiang Zhen talked about the knowledge of wild survival, they listened very seriously.

As long as you are human, you always want to live.

a few days later.

Yabian Village is a very small village by the sea, and there are only a dozen or so families in the village.

There is a cliff where they live, and the name of the cliff village comes from it.

Relying on the sea to eat the sea, the people in Yabian Village depend on fishing for a living.They are very poor, and there are no fishing boats in the village that can go to sea. Everyone stays on the cliff to fish, picks up fish and shrimps on the beach, and they also grow some vegetables on the sandy land by the sea, so they can live on.

On this day, Qing Zhuang from Yabian Village caught some fish, picked up some shrimps and crabs from the rock crevices by the sea, and walked home together.

The top of the cliff is relatively high, and they can look down on the village where they live, and when they look down, they are taken aback-a group of people are running towards their village!

Is it the people from Hongjiang Saltworks coming again?If these people come, it will definitely be fine!

These young men hurriedly ran to the village, and as soon as they ran into the village, they saw those people also entered their village.

"Who are you? You..." An old man from Yabian Village stepped forward, wanting to talk to those people, but he didn't want to cut off the old man's neck with a wave of the knife in their hands.

The donated blood gushed out from the old man's neck, which stunned the people in Yabian Village.

In the past, these people always asked them for things, why this time... they actually killed people?

"Master!" Many people cried out.

Every household in this cliffside village is related to relatives, and this old man is the elder of most people in the village. Now those people suddenly killed him, and the villagers couldn't help crying.

"What the hell are you trying to do?" one of the young men asked, looking angrily at the people in the Hongjiang Saltworks, then clenched the sticks in their hands, and some people went to get other weapons—they had already seen it , The visitor is not good.

"Fight!" said the leading man who hacked the old man to death with a single knife, and then the people behind him started fighting with the villagers of Yabian Village.

There were 40 to [-] people from outside, and there were only about [-] adult men in Yabian Village. They didn't have any fighting experience, so they naturally fell into the disadvantaged.

"Father..." A child began to cry, but his whimpering stopped quickly, obviously because someone covered his mouth.

"Run away!"

"Everyone run away!"

"Go!"

……

The young and strong who were fighting with others shouted, and the women in the village wiped away their tears, and were about to run away with their children, but those who attacked Yabian Village, how could they allow the villagers to run away?

"Catch them!" The leader chopped down a villager in Yabian village: "No one can escape!"

A dozen or so of these people shouted and chased after them. At this moment, another group of people appeared from the other side of the village, blocking the women and children from escaping.

A woman running in the front shook her body and fell to the ground in fear. Behind her, an elderly woman brandished a sickle and rushed towards those people, looking desperate.

Those who blocked the way were all carrying knives and sticks. The leader took out the stick and knocked the sickle off the old woman's hand.

Seeing this, the people in Yabian Village were in despair. They were ready to be caught by these people, or to be humiliated, or to be killed, but they didn't want the leader to knock off the old woman's sickle. After that, instead of beating them, he rushed forward with a wooden stick and rushed into the middle of those who were chasing them.

The wooden stick in this man's hand was swung quickly, and he hit the neck of a gangster who had gone to the village to kill someone earlier, and it directly skewed the man's neck, causing the man to fall to the ground and lose his breath.

Aren't these two groups of people the same?

The people in Yabian Village were very excited. Then, they saw the group of people rushing forward. It didn't take long before they killed several people who rushed into the village and wanted to kill people.

Those who had entered the village aggressively to kill people were suddenly frightened and fled in all directions. At this time, the group of people who came after them chased after them...

"They're here to save us!"

"Who are these people?"

"Father! Wake up..."

……

There were all kinds of cries and shouts in the village. When Fang Qi saw these people, it was as if he saw himself in the past.

That's right, the group of people after that was Jiang Zhen and his party.

At this moment, Jiang Zhen led people to chase after him, but Fang Qi stayed behind with the woman Shuang'er who had been rescued before, to appease the people in the village.

"Cheer up, everyone, you'll be fine, and you'll be fine in the future!" Fang Qi said.

Fang Qi's accent was exactly the same as that of the people in Yabian Village. The villagers in Yabian Village relaxed a lot when they saw him, and some people asked: "Are you..."

"I'm from Xiaotang Village." Fang Qi talked about his origin, and then explained the identities of Jiang Zhen and others.

Jiang Zhen didn't tell Fang Qi the truth, he only said that he was nearby, and he would only come here when he saw someone killing people here at will. Fang Qi said the same at this moment, and said: "Our boss is a good man, don't worry , he will definitely help you."

The people in Yabian Village were immediately grateful.

Those who fled scattered and fled, and Jiang Zhen still failed to arrest them all.

These people are all from Hongjiang Saltworks. After they run away, they may bring people over to attack Yabian Village. However, it is impossible for Jiang Zhen and his party to guard these villagers in Yabian Village all the time. Not many, if Hongjiang Saltworks sent more people over, they would not be able to guard the village.

Jiang Zhen and others rested in Yabian Village for the night. When they left, there were more people from Yabian Village behind him.

Two days later, Jiang Zhen and others encountered a group of Yanhu who were hunted down by officers and soldiers who came to suppress the rebellion.

On the Hongjiang Salt Field, there are a lot of salt households. Those who entered the Hongjiang Salt Field before were actually only a small number of people.

But the officers and soldiers who came to counter the rebellion didn't care about these.

When such a thing happened in Hongjiang Salt Farm, they must give an explanation to the higher-ups. If they can't catch the culprit, they can only go to trouble those innocent salt farmers.

Of course, they had other considerations when they went to arrest those salt households.

There is no war these days, but if a military officer wants to be promoted, he must have military exploits and kill the enemy...

Under such circumstances, the more enemies the better, after all, they need to get more heads to get promoted and get rich.

At the request of the officers, the soldiers massacred the salt households in the Hongjiang Saltworks. Regardless of men, women, or children, they were all defined as traitors.

These generations have boiled salt for the saltworks, and the salt households who have encountered many injustices in recent years and endured it by themselves can only run away in panic.

If they don't escape, they will die.

Jiang Zhen's team got bigger again.

And it is impossible for them to never meet others again.

As time went by, there were more and more people around Jiang Zhen. If most of them were not men, Jiang Zhen would not have been able to take care of them.

But even so, with so many people, it was a bit cumbersome after all.

Always send these people to a safe place first, and then think about other things... Jiang Zhen talked with the relatively knowledgeable people among these people, and he learned that there is a mountain forest nearby, which is very good for hiding people.

That being the case, let’s send these people there first...

Bringing people along, Jiang Zhen headed towards the forest.

It is dangerous to bring so many people, so Jiang Zhen sent many people out to inquire about the news. Today, after the people who went out to inquire about the news came back, they worriedly said: "Boss, there are traces of activities nearby, and the number of those people is not small. !"

At the same time, they led people to raid the Hongjiang Salt Fields. They have been hiding in Tibet these days, and attracted many salt households to defect to Zhu Erlin's side. Some people also came to report: "Brother Zhu, it seems that someone has come. We saw the smoke from the kitchen. !"

"Go and find out!" Jiang Zhen said.

"Go and check!" Zhu Erlin also said.

Many people died on the coast of Hexing Mansion, but this did not have much impact on Hexing Mansion.

No, the impact is still there, because some rich families who got the news started hoarding salt, and the price of salt in Hexing Mansion became more and more expensive, and it doubled several times.

However, if you eat less salt, you will not die for a while... The increase in the price of salt does not have as much impact on the people as the increase in food prices.

As for the upper echelons of Hexing Mansion, they don't even care about this.

After all, they will never be short of salt. Except for those involved in this matter and those related to the Hongjiang Salt Field who are worried and frightened all day long, the others have lived their lives and are still singing and dancing.

There are only a few salt households in the Hongjiang Salt Field, so there must be no big trouble.

Compared to Hongjiang Saltworks, they care more about Qingfeng wine at the moment - the imperial decree came from the capital, and even listed Qingfeng wine as a tribute, and they even praised this wine!

What is the taste of wine that even the royal family praises?

The rich merchants in Hexing Mansion are all interested in Qingfeng wine, but since the Zheng family sent some wine out at the beginning, they refused to take out a drop of it afterwards.

Rareness is the most precious thing, everyone looked forward to Qingfeng wine even more for a while, but they didn't know that Zheng Yi was actually a little depressed at the moment.

He managed to save up a batch of wine, but... Jiang Zhen sent someone to leave!

Such an expensive wine, Jiang Zhen used it to wash people's wounds!
