"Wang Lun, that poor scholar, should have died a long time ago. How can such a narrow-minded man be worthy of the majesty of this 800-mile lake? Du Qian and Song Wan are both snakes and rats. Well done! Sun Lei A true hero like my brother is the master of these eight hundred miles of water."
Zhu Gui shouted when he saw Ruan Xiaowu touching the knife at his waist, and he couldn't help shrinking his neck. Ruan Xiaowu always looked at his neck, which made his neck feel cold and goosebumps appeared.
"You do have some insights. Let's go up the mountain."
Ruan Xiaowu felt that this made sense, nodded and took Zhu Gui up the mountain.
"Second brother, I will take Zhu Gui up the mountain."
After arriving at the first level, Ruan Xiaowu shouted to the village gate.
"Open the door!"
Ruan Xiaoer appeared and looked at Ruan Xiaowu and Zhu Gui below before ordering the door to be opened.
After capturing Liangshan, Sun Lei quickly arranged the tasks. Ruan Xiaoer was responsible for the three passes in front of the mountain, and Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi were responsible for training and management.
After passing through three passes and entering Wanzi City, he came to the Juyi Hall. Zhu Gui saw a handsome young man in his twenties sitting in the hall. This man was sitting in the middle of the hall as the leader of the village. He was the fourth person next to him. Sitting on it was a young man with a fleshy face and a yellowish beard.
"Could this be Monkey King Sun Lei and Living Yama Ruan Xiaoqi? The person guarding the mountain just now was Lidi Taisui Ruan Xiaoer. So Sun Lei teamed up with the three Ruan brothers from Shijie Village to seize the mountain stronghold?"
Zhu Gui observed the situation in Juyi Hall while thinking about how to deal with it later to save his life.
"Brother, bring Zhu Gui here!"
Ruan Xiaowu cupped his fists and said to Sun Lei.
"Dry Land Hulu Zhugui?"
Sun Lei looked at Zhu Gui with a smile and asked. Zhu Gui didn't look like someone who ran a hotel. He was tall and thin, with prominent bones on his face, a hint of fierceness, and a naked strongman appearance.
"Meet you brother!"
Zhu Gui bowed his head without hesitation and called him brother.
"Get up!"
Sun Lei laughed when he saw Zhu Gui being so understanding.
"The wine and food are ready. Let's drink a few jars together. Wang Lun's wine collection is really good."
Sun Lei walked to the table in the hall, patted the wine jar and said with a smile.
After Sun Lei sat down, Ruan Xiaowu and Ruan Xiaoqi also sat down one by one. Zhu Gui bowed a few times before sitting down at the bottom.
"Liangshanbo has changed its owner. From today on, I will be the person who talks about Shuibo. Do you have any opinion on this?"
Sun Lei looked at Zhu Gui and asked.
"Like a thousand-mile horse finally meeting a bole!"
Zhu Gui cupped his hands and said.
"A thousand-mile horse?"
Sun Lei looked at Zhu Guidao and wondered if this was too much.
"Brother has misunderstood. The thousand-mile horse refers to this eight-hundred-mile water park. This is a huge and good family property. It is really a waste if it falls into the hands of Wang Lun. Only a person like my brother deserves to have it."
Zhu Gui quickly explained that he did not dare to say that he was a thousand-mile horse, but he still knew how much he weighed.
"Does that mean you have no problem with me being the master of this cottage?"
Sun Lei asked with a smile, but Zhu Gui kept saying he didn't dare.
"Last night, I hurriedly killed Wang Lun and the other guys, as well as all the leaders. As a result, I didn't have time to ask about the situation on the mountain. Those little ones don't know anything. Why don't you introduce Liangshan first? Condition?"
Sun Lei looked at Zhu Gui and asked, "Wang Lun is not only small-minded, but also very obsessed with power. Those little bosses don't know anything about it, let alone the minions."
"If my brother has a question, I should answer it truthfully."
Zhu Gui quickly stood up and saluted.
"Sit down and talk slowly."
Sun Lei waved his hand and said.
Liangshanbo is a den of bandits, and burning, killing and looting are inevitable. Wang Lun took possession of Liangshanbo and made a fortune through robbery. The eight hundred miles of water in Liangshan controlled the traffic between Jingdong East Road, Jingdong East Road, Hebei East Road and Bianjing. All merchants coming and going have to cross the boundary of Liangshan, guard the roads and rob merchants, and then borrow grain from surrounding villages and towns to make a fortune.
"Looking at your calculations like this, it should be good. How much income can Liang Shanbo make in a year?"
Sun Lei looked at Zhu Gui and asked. He was not proficient in settling accounts.
"Brother, please see, this is an account kept by a villain in private. Wang Lun and others are not good at keeping accounts. It has always been a villain keeping records, and it is all in this account book."
Zhu Gui quickly handed over the account book in his sleeves with both hands.
"Only more than 30,000 guan in a year? Wang Lun has only been in Liangshan for two years, how come I see more than 100,000 guan in the warehouse? Can Wang Lun still conjure money?"
Sun Lei looked at the numbers on the account and asked doubtfully. The discrepancy in the account was a bit too big.
"Brother, I don't know. The only things this villain has done are going down the mountain to borrow food and plundering merchants. As for the extra money, it was Wang Lun's private gain."
Zhu Gui cupped his hands and said.
"Tell me!"
Sun Lei became interested. He could earn tens of thousands of dollars privately, which was more money than robbery.
"This is……"
Zhu Gui hesitated, as if he didn't dare to speak.
"Why are you hesitating? If you have anything to say, just say it."
Sun Lei waved his hand and said,
"Brother, those are Wang Lun's private business income. His accounts are kept privately. Du Qian and Song Wan have always been responsible. I really don't know."
Zhu Gui finally spoke.
"Private business? Is Wang Lun still doing this?"
Sun Lei asked curiously. He didn't know what the private business did, but the name should have something to do with smuggling.
"Wang Lun is a talented scholar who came to the world. He had hatred in his heart and turned against him. First he had a small quarrel with Du Qian in the local area, and then he was wanted and fled. Fortunately, he was funded by Cangzhou Xiaoxuanfeng Chaijin, and then he got Liang Shanbo. In the family business, Chai Jin is actually behind Liangshan. The Chai family has great financial resources in Cangzhou. Wang Lun often works with smugglers in Cangzhou in private, but something seems to have changed in the past six months."
Zhu Gui said.
"Private traders? Cangzhou? What are they smuggling? What happened again?"
Sun Lei poured Zhu Gui a glass of wine and asked him to drink it and continue talking.
"Brother, it's salt! What's being smuggled is salt!"
Zhu Gui quickly saluted with the wine glass in both hands and replied, then drank the glass of wine in one gulp.
"Salt?"
Sun Lei thought about it.
"Brother, we also know something about this matter. After Wang Lun banned fishing, ships often entered Liangshan from the north, and there were not a few of them."
Ruan Xiaowu said, in the past they just thought those boats were thieves, but now Wang Lun has banned fishing just to prevent his eyes and ears from doing private business.
"Oh, I never thought that there must be a reason why Wang Lun banned fishing inexplicably. There must be a purpose for him to block such a big water pond. It turns out that this guy is doing private business. This sour scholar is really serious. How cunning, you did this under our noses and didn’t even notice!”
Ruan Xiaowu said suddenly, he also figured it out.
"But this is not surprising. It is normal for Wang Lun to be a private businessman. Aren't many large households in the villages and towns around Liangshanbo privately engaged in private business? Otherwise, what use can they make by relying on the rent collected from that little land? Wang Lun This guy is incompetent and timid, and he doesn’t dare to go down the mountain frequently to borrow food and rob the road. There must be some income for such a large village."
Ruan Xiaoqi was not surprised. It was common for large households to engage in private business. It was also normal for Wang Lun to occupy Liangshan and settle down.
“How much profit is there in salt?”
Sun Lei asked while touching his chin.
