After Lao Nanfeng peeked at the eldest girl washing clothes through his telescope for a few times, he was satisfied. The thief was satisfied and walked down from the watchtower humming a tune with a happy look on his face.
It happened that the war monk and a group of civilians were digging shooting holes on the wall of the village.
Seeing Old Nanfeng's relaxed look, the war monk smiled and said: "The general is in a good mood. It seems there is no problem around him."
Old Nanfeng said with a smile: "We just discovered the rebel scouts, they will attack soon. War Monk:"! ! ! "
The man who was drilling holes next to him said: "!!!"
A group of people all looked at Old Nanfeng with strange eyes, thinking: The bandit army is about to attack, and you are still smiling so happily? A very happy look? What is wrong with you? Old Nanfeng said with a smile on his face: "Oh, the Central Plains is so nice. There are also beautiful girls washing clothes by the river.
Yes, when we were in the north...cough...
He quickly stopped and immediately lowered his face: "Those who dig shooting holes, move quickly. All the remaining shooting holes must be dug within one day. Otherwise, when the rebels attack, our gun soldiers will have no place to fire." Where's the gun?
As soon as he finished saying this, the peasants' movements sped up three times.
How dare you not speed up? If they can't stop the bandits, they will die.
The war monk let out a long sigh and tightened his grip on his whistle stick: "Ami stole the Buddha! Good slaughter, good slaughter!"
Old Nanfeng glanced at him sideways: "Master, I can tell by looking at your figure that you are a practitioner and your kung fu is very good. I probably can't beat you. Even a fifth grader in high school may not be your opponent. And you are so good at it." He has a strong murderous aura, and he did a lot of killing and arson when he was young, right?"
The war monk clasped his hands together: "The poor monk has forgotten what happened in the past."
Old Nanfeng chuckled: "In order to save these people, you must take action. How about changing the sentry stick? I will get you a big knife. I see that you are a good swordsman."
The war monk shook his head: "The knife is too powerful for killing, so the poor monk can just use the whistle stick. The stick technique is the 'smart martial art of non-killing', and the poor monk doesn't want to kill anyone anymore."
Old Nanfeng chuckled: "How can it be so easy to achieve the word "no killing" in this divine martial arts? In my opinion, killing one person and saving two people is also a great merit. What do you think, master?"
The war monk shook his head: "If you don't kill one person, wouldn't it be better to save two more people?"
Old Nanfeng laughed: "Master, you are called greedy!"
War Monk: "In this matter, there is nothing wrong with being greedy."
Old Nanfeng shook his head, turned around and left. Within a moment, he reached the front of the warship. The captain of the war was still sitting on the bow, bored and watching the civilian workers move the goods on the cargo ship.
Old Nanfeng waved to him and said with a smile: "Brother, are you bored?"
The captain smiled: "Yeah, it's a bit annoying to command such a powerful warship but not have much chance to take action."
Old Nanfeng: "I won't be bored anymore, the thieves are coming."
This sentence cheered up the captain: "Hey, then I..."
Old Nanfeng: "I have to ask you to hide for a while."
The captain was anxious: "Why? It's hard to get a chance to take action."
Old Nanfeng said: "If your ship is parked here, the thieves will not take action.
This sentence made the captain wake up. Yes, his ship's twelve cannons are mounted here. How can the rogues dare to move?
Old Nanfeng chuckled: "The fleet is unloading normally. After unloading, you will lead the fleet back to Qiachuan Pier, right? Please sail a few miles north. After you can't see Gudu Pier, find a place where the water flow is slightly slower. Wait somewhere, and when you see thick smoke rising from Gudu Pier, you can bring the fleet back."
The captain understood instantly: "Hahaha, that's it. Thank you, General Nanfeng."
The sky was completely dark, but fortunately there was a bright moon in the sky, which cast its silver light on the Jie Pond, making the entire Jie Pond a silvery gray, and the naked eye could barely see.
Xing Honglang, Zao Ying, Tie Niofei and others dismounted their horses one mile away from the dissociation pond. Zao Ying's men stayed behind and hid their horses in the woods.
Xing Honglang and Tie Niofei led the private salt dealers and continued to move forward.
They all put on black clothes and blended into the darkness, making them invisible to the naked eye.
Tie Niao Fei pointed at the huge city on the north bank of Jiechi from a distance: "Look! Hedong City, the salt department of the imperial court lives there. There are a thousand officers and soldiers stationed here anytime and anywhere. No matter how the bandits outside make trouble, this Thousands of officers and soldiers did not move, they just guarded Jiechi."
Xing Honglang nodded.
The two of them led people around to the south bank of the Jingchi Pond.
Jiechi is more than forty miles long and four miles wide. As long as it goes around the south bank, it will not be easily discovered by the government. The salt lords have always contacted the saltsmiths on the south bank to secretly smuggle salt.
The two were sneaking in the darkness, and a village appeared in front of them. There were salt ponds everywhere around the village, one after another, spread out in large areas. The salt ponds were surrounded by high wooden walls. These wooden walls almost surrounded the entire village and all the surrounding areas. The salt ponds are all enclosed in it.
There was a door open on the wooden wall, and a small window on the door. Looking through the small window, two officers and soldiers were guarding behind the door.
Xing Honglang whispered: "I haven't run for salt for several years, and I don't recognize these two soldiers."
Tie Niofei chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I recognize them."
He rushed out of the woods and walked towards the two officers and soldiers with a smile.
The officers and soldiers felt someone approaching in the darkness, and put their hands on the handles of their knives: "Who is it? This is an important place, and you are not allowed to get close."
"It's me, Tie Niofei!"
The two soldiers immediately laughed: "It turns out it's the head of the Iron University."
Tie Niao Fei chuckled and took out a piece of silver and stuffed it in through the small window on the door. Soon, the door opened and two officers and soldiers whispered: "This time I gave you a lot. Master Tie Da wants it." Play a big game?
Tie Niofei: "Yes, it's a big game, it depends on whether you are afraid or not."
The two soldiers laughed: "It depends on how much fun you have."
Tie Niao Fei: "I want to get rid of all the salt in this village."
The two officers and soldiers looked at each other, a little confused: Take them all away? are you crazy?
However, this is just one of the many salt villages around Jiechi. Even if the entire village's salt is taken away, it will not have much impact on the court. Other villages still produce salt.
It's not that they don't dare to play, it's just that they definitely wouldn't dare to play with just two soldiers.
"This matter needs to be notified to the superiors."
One of the soldiers said: "At least the Salt Division Secretary nods before we dare to help."
Tie Niao Fei: "How much does it cost to get the nod from the Salt Division? Please quote a price."
The soldier whispered: "At least...one hundred taels, no, two hundred taels."
"Okay! Two hundred taels is two hundred taels." Tie Niofei took out a bag of large silver ingots that he had prepared: "You go and report, I will wait here."
The two soldiers nodded, and one of them continued to guard the gate of Salt Village, while the other took a bag of large silver ingots and ran into the village. After a while, the captain of the officers and soldiers in the village also stood up and saw the large silver ingots. After that, he quickly rowed a small boat, crossed Jiechi, and headed towards Hedong City on the opposite side.
