Chapter 759:Mysterious Salt Merchant (Part 1)

“I’ve seen Uncle Wei.”

Back in the library, Zhongyi and Zhong Yi came forward to the courtesy.

Wei Wei had just returned from outside the city, and the dress was really ordinary, like a man who brought food on the street, but he also brought a heavy burden.

Zhong Yi has already prepared a new set of trousers, together with shoes and socks, etc., but Wei Wei refused to laugh, "I am a man who delivers food on the street, how can I wear such a clean and brand-new dress?"Or put it away.”

Zhongyi will be brewed tea handed over, there are some fruits and vegetables on the table, like the decoration of Lingyun Mountain.

Wei Wei was no longer polite, he smiled and slowly sat down and said, "Yi Er, you salt class lifter, I am afraid that it will be busy for a while."

Zhong Yi and Zhong Yi heard this, and immediately came forward, and immediately understood in their hearts that Uncle Wei must be worth the trip, and he was definitely the one said by Master - an accident.

On that day, after the salt was shipped in the Wujing Salt Mine, some salt merchants suddenly re-routed after walking out of the salt field and headed straight to the west, and this trip was the journey of nearly four days.

Dalifu continued to the west of the Nu River, more and more biased, even during the day can not see idle people, salt merchants walk the mountain road, in the middle of several times change horses, the people on the way will rest at will in the carriage, people do not rest, day and night.

"According to your master's instructions, I have been following these people until I have been in a remote mountain road of the Nu River, surrounded by mountains and rocks and mountains and trees in the forest."

With that, Wei Wei took out a white cloth and painted a road map, and he followed the sign on the map, "Here, these salt merchants took all these salts off, and then took the silver original road back."

In his heart, he secretly surprised that although these people took the salt, but how is this different from selling private salt?Such a large amount of money, the person who takes over will definitely take the opportunity to raise the price of salt, and then sell it at a higher price.

In this way, how many times the silver in the hand has been turned?

Who is so bold?Further to the west is the territory of the Burmese, where these people want to transport the salt, in this deserted countryside, can you get out of hand?

“One more thing I discovered a few days ago.”

Wei Wei saw the doubts of Zhongyi, but he did not rush to explain, but turned to continue, "This incident suddenly occurred, involving a wide range, is not known at present, but look at the situation, the court has received the report."

It turned out that in the western part of Dali Province, a group of unidentified people suddenly broke into a post station and ransacked the things there.

Arguably, the post station is also uploaded, to assist some horse official work, there is no important business on weekdays, not to pile up too much goods, but it rained on that day, the local Tusi to the court tribute a lot of things all loaded, only to go soon, only to live here temporarily.

These carriages are filled with a lot of jewelry, jade, as well as tea, porcelain, etc., many of which are sent to Beijing by the local soil, because of its obvious local characteristics of Yunnan, coupled with the scarcity of raw materials, fine work, can be said to be valuable.

As the saying goes, "bad is not a one-way", just a group of merchants are trapped here by heavy rain, everyone avoids the rain together, and when others ask, they say that they can sell some specialties at will, do a little business and so on.

After the last thief, these merchants were not spared, only to find that the car was loaded with private salt and copper and iron, the amount is very large, can be arranged into a convoy, the big carriage is crushed by the dead, the ground left a deep car print, after the rain is a conspicuous gully.

Surprisingly, these things did not kill a person after the theft, the station officials, and those who were robbed are safe, but those who are unknown origin are blind, and everyone has not seen the appearance.

After saying this, Wei Wei sighed, "When they heard the two soldiers of the station, they almost even had such a big thing happening to the dead heart, and once the emperor blamed them, it would inevitably involve them, and now it is a fear of the heart."

The wind is tight enough, if not for this question, I am afraid that few people do not know it?

Other than that, the ginger flyby of the gate of the house is still in the dark, right?

The local Tusi sent people to report to Beijing immediately, and the will of the court should be coming down soon?

Wei Wei deserved to break through the rivers and lakes for many years, if this thing is changed to others, it will not be so smooth.

Just as Ling Yunzi often taught his disciples to read thousands of books is better than walking thousands of miles, walking thousands of miles is better than countless readers...

"Uncle Wei, our salt mine is only the salt that has been out of the last few days, and the salt that was stolen by the evil people is definitely not our Wujing salt class, as for those iron and copper."

Some worry, right?Is it from the Black Mountain?

"Salt class gate is more than one of you, salt well naturally will be more than one of you, as for some copper and iron words, it is not known, but these things are very important, especially iron and copper can cast weapons, the court will not rest."

Zhong Yi also got up and said, "More than that, those who paid tribute to the court were carefully prepared by the local toast, and now such a thing has happened, if someone instigated from it, it will lead to the contradiction between the local Tutus and the court, and the consequences are unimaginable."

In other words, what do you not think about?Are they really doing it, do they want to profit from it, or take the opportunity to provoke the disaster?

Although it is just a speculation, more than one person with the same idea as Zhong Yi, but some people think that this is a big deal, just happen to encounter some bandits to rob wealth, but just happened to encounter such a vote "fat".

A coincidence can also be said in the past, but too many coincidences are often difficult to make convincing, which is also a common thing.

"It is so general that from the salt of your five wells, not only the first ones were pulled there, but when I came back today, I saw the carriage of salt."

Wei looked out the window and smiled and said to the two people, "It is not too late, I should go back to this meal, and I have already made an appointment with your master to meet, and it is too late..."

Unable to stay, Zhong Yi had to say goodbye to Wei Wei, and Zhongyao could only send him outside the courtyard, and after saying goodbye in a hurry, Wei Wei went straight out of the city.

“Things of tribute, jewels, jade, private salt, private copper and private iron...”

Zhong Yi locked himself in the study room, his brain is rapidly hovering all this, what does it have to do with my Wujing salt class?What does this have to do with my plan?

When he returned to the study, he said that when he returned to the study, he saw that Zhong Yi was still sitting on the chessboard.

This time, however, he was finally able to get settled.

“Yi Er, I finally know the relationship between the plan and the accident that Master said.”

Looking at the falling pieces, he suddenly realized, "This chess move should go like this, I finally understand Master's intention..."
