After Jiang Zhen sent people to investigate, he learned that the group of people who approached them was also a fleeing Yanhu family, and those who brought their families with them also brought many women and children.

Such a group of people obviously pose no threat to them.

After confirming that the group of people were harmless, Jiang Zhen felt relieved, and even sent someone over there, proposing to have a good talk with the people over there - after finally meeting such a group of people, if he could, of course he would try to find out informative.

Before Zhu Erlin could understand the situation of Jiang Zhen and others, the envoy sent by Jiang Zhen came.

"Talk?" Zhu Erlin was taken aback for a moment, then agreed.

If those people were officers and soldiers, after seeing them, they might have called them without saying a word. Since they didn't call them, they must be Yanhu or ordinary people who gathered together.

Of course, Zhu Erlin was also on guard, and added: "You come to my place to talk, you can't come to too many people."

The person who went to negotiate with Zhu Erlin was Jiang Ming. After looking at the situation at Zhu Erlin's place, he agreed to Zhu Erlin's request: "No problem, our boss will come over and talk to you later."

Seeing Jiang Ming's willingness to agree, Zhu Erlin immediately felt relieved.

When Jiang Zhen went to Zhu Erlin's place, he only brought about [-] people with him, but these [-] people were all masters brought out by him. If he encountered any danger, he was confident that he could escape.

Soon after, Jiang Zhen met Zhu Erlin and his party.

There are a lot of people in this group, most of them have tattered clothes and carry pots and pans on their backs, just like the fleeing people under his hands, but there are also some people...

Jiang Zhen's eyes fell on Zhu Erlin. The people at the head, looking at their hands and faces, were all born in poverty, but their clothes were really well-dressed. The clothes... looked like they were ripped off from people in Hongjiang Saltworks .

There is no doubt that this group of people killed people from Hongjiang Saltworks.

Jiang Zhen glanced at the other party thoughtfully, and made a bold guess about the identity of this group of people.

Zhu Erlin glanced at Jiang Zhen and the others, also a little strange, and frowned immediately: "Aren't you a salt household?" The men in these salt households cook salt every day, and they have some similar characteristics. For example, the palms are particularly rough, but this is not the case for these people in front of them.

Jiang Zhen nodded: "We are indeed not Yanhu..."

"Jiang Zhen! Why are you here?!" A voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Jiang Zhen's words.

Jiang Zhen turned his head, and saw Zhou Maohe, who was about to become a savage with an unshaven beard, staring at him in surprise: "Why did you appear here? What do you want to do?"

"Do you know this imperial envoy?" Seeing this, Zhu Erlin immediately looked at Jiang Zhen warily.

Jiang Zhen confirmed his guess—these people in front of him should be those who copied the Hongjiang Saltworks.

Didn't expect him to meet these people here...

"I know this imperial envoy, and I came here for him, but don't worry, I have no ill intentions towards you." Jiang Zhen said to Zhu Erlin.

"You said you have no malice, so you have no malice?" A person next to Zhu Erlin yelled dissatisfiedly, and someone quickly grabbed Zhou Maohe, and while controlling Zhou Maohe, he asked Jiang Zhen: "Who are you? Not from the government?"

As soon as the word "government" came out, the people around Zhu Erlin started to riot, some were full of hatred, and some were trembling.

"Quiet!" Zhu Erlin yelled, then put the knife on Zhou Maohe's neck, and said to Jiang Zhen and others: "Put down your weapons! Otherwise, I will kill him!"

They have been chased by those officers and soldiers for a long time, and they have fought several times. Now they have become frightened birds, fearing that Jiang Zhen and others will not be kind.

Seeing this, Jiang Zhen threw the wooden stick in his hand openly, and said: "You can go to my side to have a look. I saved many salt households, and I didn't come to arrest you. As for the imperial envoy ..."

Jiang Zhen looked at Zhou Maohe: "Master Zhou, in addition to helping people deliver goods, our Jin Zhen Escort Bureau also takes care of protecting others, or finding people and things. This time, it was Zheng Shao who paid me to come find them You, the one who took you out of here."

This is the excuse that Jiang Zhen had thought up for himself a long time ago.

If he could conceal his identity, he would conceal it. He really couldn't conceal it... He came here this time to save the imperial envoy!The reasons are above board.

As for why a group of people were dragged, it was just because they looked pitiful.

These salt households rebelled only when they were forced to do so, and they could not be called extremely vicious. Seeing Jiang Zhen's frank face, they didn't do anything to Jiang Zhen and others, so they just surrounded Jiang Zhen and others, and sent People went to check with those who followed Jiang Zhen.

After they confirmed with the people led by Jiang Zhen and learned that Jiang Zhen rescued them and killed some people from the Hongjiang Salt Field, they no longer guarded against Jiang Zhen.

On the contrary, Zhou Maohe looked at Jiang Zhen with a frown, his face full of dissatisfaction: "Did you kill someone? You actually killed someone? How can you kill someone?!"

Jiang Zhen: "..." If you don't kill someone, do you have to wait to be killed?This Mr. Zhou is really a person who is easy to change and hard to change.

"Don't worry about him." Zhu Erlin said to Jiang Zhen, waved his hand and asked Zhou Maohe to be taken away. After Zhou Maohe was taken away, he said, "Your bodyguard can protect people with money? If I give you money? Can you help me protect some people?"

Jiang Zhen was slightly taken aback when he heard the words, and immediately felt that Zhu Erlin was a man to be made.

No matter from the history of Daqi or the history of the world he lived in, peasant uprisings have never been successful.

Farmers in ancient times had no channels to absorb knowledge, they didn’t know a few words, they hadn’t learned how to manage their subordinates, and their horizons were narrow... Although they could revolt because they couldn’t stand the oppression, they couldn’t revolt successfully.

It is definitely a fluke that Zhu Erlin was able to copy the Hongjiang Salt Farm. If he is arrogant because of this, he will definitely have to be wiped out by the officers and soldiers in the end. Fortunately, his mind is still clear, and he has not taken credit for it. He also realized his own shortcomings place.

Zhu Erlin has indeed realized his own shortcomings.

He is a salt household. He has never left the sphere of influence of the Hongjiang Salt Farm since he was a child. Even if he helps his father manage people, he manages only those salt households who live with them. There are not many people in total.

But now, there are thousands of people following him!

If it weren't for the imperial envoy, he wouldn't even be able to figure out how much food these people would eat every day!

And...Zhu Erlin clearly realized that it was really too difficult to travel with a group of old and weak children.

If it weren't for those old and weak children, he would have easily escaped the pursuit of the officers and soldiers with the people under his command, but in order to protect those people, he had already lost a lot of people.

He wants to rebel because of those people. Even if he dies, he still wants to protect those people, but if he keeps them...I'm afraid they will be taken over in a short time.

Zhu Erlin had already talked with those people who were rescued by Jiang Zhen, and knew that Jiang Zhen was indeed a good person—even he would not be able to save so many people who had no relatives and no relationship with him unconditionally like Jiang Zhen.

Jiang Zhen confiscated every penny, and he was willing to save those people. If he gave money... would Jiang Zhen find a way to give the old and weak under him a way to survive?

"You are from outside, can you get those women and children outside? I will give you money." Zhu Erlin said: "I have a lot of money."

Jiang Zhen looked at Zhu Erlin.

Jiang Zhen also knew that Zhu Erlin must have a lot of money. After all, this person copied the Hongjiang Salt Farm, and how rich the Hongjiang Salt Farm is...anyone knows it.

"I'm not capable of taking away everyone around you, but I can help you get in touch." Jiang Zhen said to Zhu Erlin.

The Jin Zhen Escort under his hands is too small, and it is almost impossible to rescue the people in this place, but if Zhu Erlin has money, he can help Zhu Erlin contact others.

In Daqi, there are many sea merchants.

Daqi has a sea ban, but actually does not allow sea merchants to exist, but sea merchants have been banned repeatedly.

These sea merchants, to be honest, are all smuggling, which is illegal.

These maritime merchants are doing illegal business. As long as Zhu Erlin is willing to pay, they will definitely be willing to pick up the old and weak here and send them to other places for resettlement.

On land, Jiang Zhen can lead dozens of people through the blockade of the seaside by the officers and soldiers and the Hongjiang Salt Field, but it is impossible to leave with thousands of people, but if a big ship comes from the sea...

Those officers and soldiers didn't even have a boat, so they couldn't stop the sea boat from coming.

Jiang Zhen told Zhu Erlin about the situation, and Zhu Erlin immediately agreed: "I hid most of the gold and silver that I snatched from the Hongjiang saltworks, but we also brought some with us. I can give you a deposit first, and you help I'm going to contact the sea merchant."

Zhu Erlin is a bit desperate now, he can only choose to trust Jiang Zhen.

"Yes." Jiang Zhen agreed without hesitation.

While Zhu Erlin and Jiang Zhen were discussing things, on the other side, Zhou Maohe was distributing supplies to Zhu Erlin's subordinates.

He was unwilling to help this group of rebels, but these people forced him to keep accounts and do things.

These guys are too hateful!

Zhou Maohe was slandering in his heart, but when he saw someone took the wrong thing, he immediately said: "Stop, stop, you took the wrong thing! Here are the things for those children!"

The person who forced him to deal with logistics just now obediently exchanged some things.

"What a mob! A mob! It's unbearable!" Zhou Maohe muttered again, his face full of disdain.

"If you keep yelling, I will beat you!" Someone stretched out his fist towards Zhou Maohe in dissatisfaction.

Zhou Maohe didn't dare to speak at once... What about Jiang Zhenren?Why didn't you come to rescue him?

Hexing Mansion.

When Zheng Yi was delivering wine to the capital, he told Mr. Zheng Er that Zhou Maohe might do something to the Hongjiang saltworks, and the Zheng family could make a profit from it. Of course, he didn't say that he planned to promote this matter.

Master Zheng Er has always attached great importance to the matter raised by Zheng Yi. After learning about it, he took advantage of the Qingfeng wine to please the queen mother, and specifically mentioned the chaos of Jiangnan's salt affairs to the queen mother, and expressed his disapproval. Zhou Maohe's worry——Zhou Maohe, this idiot, after discovering the corruption of the salt government, is likely to run into it head-on.

When the Queen Mother heard Master Zheng Er's words, she felt that it was very reasonable, and said: "The Ai family hopes that Mr. Zhou can help the Ai family to solve their problems."

Obviously, the Queen Mother hoped that Zhou Maohe could go to the Hongjiang Salt Field to make a fuss.

Therefore, Master Zheng Er sent a letter to Zheng Yi, asking Zheng Yi to "help" Zhou Maohe at the right time.

Help whatever... He doesn't need to do anything, Zhou Maohe has already copied Hongjiang Saltworks...

Zheng Yi sighed, and put the belated letter from Mr. Zheng Er beside him.

Master Zheng should have seen the letter he sent to his second uncle after he learned of the accident at the Hongjiang Salt Field.

Master Zheng Er had indeed seen the letter from Zheng Yi.

He had received Zheng Yi's letter before, and since he thought of meddling in Hongjiang Saltworks, his heart has been burning, but even so, he thought it would take a long time for this to happen.

As a result, in the blink of an eye, the Hongjiang Salt Field was gone?

Things were going too fast, Master Zheng Er couldn't react.

Still, it's a good thing for him.

The memorial written by Zhou Maohe after copying the Hongjiang Saltworks has also been sent to the capital. The queen mother counted the days and found that when Zhou Maohe started to attack the Hongjiang Saltworks, it was when Master Zheng Er reminded him that for a while, On the contrary, I feel that Mr. Zheng Er has some clever plans.

The Empress Dowager found her confidants to discuss the matter of the Hongjiang Salt Plant, and among all her confidants, Master Zheng Er was undoubtedly the most valued. In the end, the Empress Dowager also adopted his opinion and used the person he recommended...

But at this time, Jiang Zhen and Zhu Erlin first settled the old and weak on the mountain, and then brought the young and strong down the mountain again.

They want to divert the attention of those officers and soldiers, and try to save more people.

Without those cumbersome things, it was much more convenient for Jiang Zhen to do things. At the same time, he also contacted Zheng Yi and sent Zheng Yi a lot of gold.

Jiang Zhen is so courageous...

Zheng Yi sighed, but had to admit that Jiang Zhen's actions brought him great benefits.

These days, Jiang Zhen has sent him a lot of information, and it is these information that let him know the situation at the Hongjiang Salt Field well, and it is much easier to do things. In comparison, other people are not so good condition.

Now, even those officers and soldiers who went to suppress the bandits did not know the specific situation in the Hongjiang Salt Field.

Zheng Yi carefully looked at the information that Jiang Zhen sent back, looked at it, and suddenly saw a letter.

"Brother Zhao Jin personally" was written on that letter.

Zheng Yi: "..." He not only has to help save those traitors, but is also responsible for sending Jiang Zhen's love letter to Brother Zhao Jin...

Zheng Yi has contact with Jiang Zhen because he has always sent someone to wait for Jiang Zhen somewhere, but Zhao Jinge has no contact with Jiang Zhen.

He went to ask Zheng Yi, Zheng Yi only told him that Jiang Zhen was safe, other than that, he couldn't get any news about Jiang Zhen, this...

Brother Zhao Jin was unavoidably anxious. He was so anxious that it was difficult to sleep well even at night.

He missed Jiang Zhen, very, very much.

When dealing with the affairs of the Jin Zhen Escort that day, Brother Zhao Jin inevitably lost his mind, and it was Zheng Baoning who called him a few times before he came back to his senses.

"Sister-in-law, you are tired after working for so many days, do you want to take a day off?" Zheng Baoning asked.

Brother Zhao Jin is really busy these days from morning to night, non-stop, and occasionally goes to exercise when he is free... He is a big man, and he can't stand being so busy!

"No need." Brother Zhao Jin declined.

"Sister-in-law, you should also pay attention to your body, otherwise the boss will feel distressed when he comes back." Zheng Baoning persuaded.

"Physical?" Brother Zhao Jin was taken aback, and suddenly remembered something.

When Jiang Zhen left, he said that he might be pregnant... He was too busy these days, so he forgot about it. Now, should he go to the doctor?

Although he didn't feel anything, the last time he was pregnant, he didn't feel anything at first.

Brother Zhao Jin has been busy for so many days, and now he has almost finished all the things he should be busy with. After thinking about it, he asked Zheng Baoning to watch here. He won't be here in the afternoon.
