Salt Merchant

Whether it is long or short, three days is not too short.

The news that Lin Ruhai was going to die spread throughout Yangzhou almost instantly. Of course, the news that he was going to accept disciples also spread throughout Yangzhou.

The news of his death has actually been rumored for a long time, but it has only been confirmed now.

Some people clapped their hands in applause, some sighed, and everyone’s reactions were varied.

But these people were still surprised when they received the news of Lin Ruhai’s acceptance of apprentices.

They are about to die, why do they still accept closed disciples?

After asking around a bit, these people understood that it was for his daughter that they made the final plan.

It seems that he is really going to die, otherwise why would he make such a plan?

Among the best restaurants in Yangzhou, Yipin is in the middle. Chef Xiaomeng cooks a table of the most delicious dishes. It is rumored that the ingredients are shipped from Shenjing by the fastest ship.

Xiaomeng has to admit that this ingredient has improved his dishes by at least three levels. This time, those big salt merchants should be satisfied.

In the box, the eight major salt merchants were talking and laughing happily.

The private room of Yipinju is magnificently decorated, and an incense burner in the shape of a copper crane is smoking.

The smoke is not like ordinary incense, and the fragrance is lingering for a long time, and the fragrance is refreshing.

A maid was checking from time to time, and if it was missing, she would add some.

“Brother Jiang is so kind. This is ambergris. Wouldn’t it be a pity to just burn it like this?”

The eight people sitting in the box are none other than the eight famous salt merchants in Yangzhou.

Each of these eight people is well-dressed, some of them have white beard and hair, some are middle-aged, and even young men are sitting in the private rooms.

These eight people seem to have a big age gap, but everyone’s temperament is similar.

Looking at it, you can tell that they are people who have been in high positions for a long time. One of them is sitting in the main seat, but it is the initiator of this party. He is also the highest and youngest among the eight major salt merchants, Jiang Chun.

Seeing that everyone was sitting down, but no one wanted to move, Jiang Chun raised his hand and said.

“Come on, come on, you’re welcome. I managed to buy this through my relationship. It’s not an ordinary item, it’s a real boutique.”

Jiang Chun had ten jasper rings on his hands. It could be seen that he liked to show off his wealth. He spoke very proudly, and then set an example by himself.

If Yang Guang were here, he would probably laugh when he saw it. After all, this is just a high-quality dish in the supermarket.

It is said to be a high-quality dish, but it is actually just a defective product picked out in Yang Guang’s space, but even so, its taste is incomparable to those grown outside.

After seeing Jiang Chun move his chopsticks, other people also moved their chopsticks one after another. In fact, they couldn’t help but smell the aroma.

After putting the food in his mouth, he felt his whole body was conquered. It really deserves to be a good thing from Shenjing City, and Jiangnan really couldn’t find it. .

For ordinary people, eating is just for living, but for these big salt merchants, eating is definitely not just for living.

Enjoyment is the greatest essence of eating, and now they are enjoying it.

After some enjoyment, the salt merchants finally started talking about the business, and their business was about the salt patrol envoy.

Qiu Chen, the head of the Qiu family, one of the eight great salt merchants, put down his chopsticks and said, “Everyone, Lin Ruhai is dying.”

“For the time being, it’s a good thing for us, but we can’t take it lightly. You must know that the emperor has been staring at the salt tax.”

On the other side, Qiao Yan, the Patriarch of the Qiao Family, nodded after hearing this and said, “That’s right, I really can’t relax. Someone in my family sent me a message from the court.”

“Although we have fed many important officials of the court with money, what if the emperor keeps watching us closely?”

“Although the Ministry of Household Affairs has always opposed the increase in taxes on salt merchants, the princes in the court also love us very much, but the emperor can’t help but have ideas.”

“Right now, Lin Ruhai is about to die, but if another person is sent who is as reckless as Lin Ruhai, or even more aggressive than Lin Ruhai, then it will be troublesome.”

As soon as these words came out, it really aroused the approval of the salt merchants, and they all nodded in agreement.

Jiang Chun said, “Brother Qiu and Brother Qiao are right. Although it seems safe now, we must not take it lightly.”

“In my opinion, we should donate some more money to the Ministry of Household Affairs, and then communicate our thoughts to the people in the court, so that we can live better.”

“That’s right. Brother Jiang’s words won my heart. Instead of letting the emperor choose, it’s better for us to choose ourselves.”

“At least the people who come up with it will be our own people. It’s safer to do things this way.”

Jiang Chun looked at Huang Guan and raised the wine glass in his hand.

The person who spoke was the person sitting next to Jiang Chun, Huang Guan, who had a close relationship with Jiang Chun’s family.

The Jiang family and the Huang family are already related by marriage, and they are also like-minded among the eight major salt merchants.

Although the rest are also from the Eighth National CongressOne of the salt merchants, but its strength is much weaker than the four mentioned above.

It is said that they are the eight major salt merchants, but they are actually pulled to make up the number. The four Jianghuang and Qiuqiao families really play a decisive role.

The other Hou, Wang, Cheng and Bao families are actually only obedient.

In fact, the four families didn’t want to come, but they had no choice. What they ate was the salt merchant’s meal. If they didn’t fit in, they would offend other people, so they couldn’t come.

But come here, it seems that it is not good not to speak. Huang Guan looked at Hou Cheng, the head of the Hou family, and said, “Brother Hou, why are you absent-minded? But what’s on your mind?”

It looks like he is caring, but he is actually guarding others. This Hou Cheng has a problem, and he is distracted at this moment. Are you planning to report them?

Sure enough, several other people looked at Hou Cheng, even the Wang family, the Cheng family and the Bao family who were supposed to form a group were the same.

Hou Cheng quickly explained: “No, no, I’m just a little worried. You may not know that Lin Ruhai’s closed disciple is a very powerful guy.”

“Everyone knows that my Jiangnan Hou family is a branch. It is said to be a salt merchant, but it is actually used to make money for the main family in Shenjing City.”

“Recently, there have been a lot of incidents at the master’s house. They just evacuated my Jiangnan branch. Right now, I can’t even get past the end of the year.”

Hou Cheng spoke like weeping, but Jiang Chun listened and said disdainfully: “Okay, I know that your family’s scriptures are difficult to read, but what does this have to do with Lin Ruhai?”

Seeing that Jiang Chun was dissatisfied, Hou Cheng immediately stopped crying and said, “Everyone doesn’t know that the disaster of the master’s family in Shenjing City is actually related to this disciple of Lin Ruhai.”

“That man’s name is Yang Guang. It is said that his identity is a mystery. All he knows is that he has a big backer behind him. He has done a great job in the city of Shenjing. Not only that, but even the prince was kicked out of his house and occupied the prince’s mansion. ”

“The most important thing is that this person is cruel and ruthless. My master’s family offended this person and was forced to kill him.”

“There is a good family to help you get ahead, but in the end, a well-behaved family of the state duke abruptly ruined the family, but what about others, how happy it is to be promoted to a noble.”

“I didn’t expect him to arrive in Jiangnan, but I’m a little worried.”

Seeing what Hou Cheng said was terrible, the other families also became a little worried. After all, they came from Shenjing City, so it’s hard to deal with.

Jiang Chun said confidently, “What am I talking about? So that’s the case. Although this person has some skills in Shenjing City, this is Jiangnan, everyone.”

“The sky is high and the emperor is far away. When we get here, if it’s a dragon, we have to coil up, and if it’s a tiger, we have to lie down. We are the masters here. How can we be robbed of our prestige?”
