Now that the four teams in Zhechong Mansion are transforming into the most powerful brigade commanders under the Salt and Iron Transfer Department, Xu Yunyan directly arranged for them to find a suitable camp and set up a military camp near Yancheng.

After the leading officer made arrangements, he followed Xu Yunyan to the Yantian. As for why?

Of course, after Xu Yunyan selected the salt field, the task of guarding the salt field would be handed over to the brigade commanders in turn.

In this way, the training brought some civil servants and some sergeants from the Salt and Iron Transfer Department to Wanghai Township. They walked along the seaside and drew a large area of ​​​​salt fields. As for negotiating with the local county government, of course Zhang Long and Zhao People from Tiger, Dynasty, and Mahan stepped forward to take charge.

Xu Yunyan no longer needs to be responsible for this. Xu Yunyan is very happy to be the hands-off shopkeeper now.

After walking around the seaside for a long time, we came to the salt field in Zhaojiacun. After we left the salt field, we watched the cows going up the mountain and grazing. The two of them took turns taking the villagers from Zhaojiacun here to continue making sea salt. Now there are hills of sea salt piled up on the beach where the sea water cannot wash away. Xu Yunyan nodded with satisfaction.

When they saw this sea salt, the officials of the Salt and Iron Transfer Department instantly became excited. They were comparing pictures there just now. They thought that the production of sea salt was meager, but when they saw such mountain-like sea salt, everyone was refreshed and kept talking.

"This is auspicious. No wonder His Majesty has worked so hard to establish the Salt and Iron Transfer Department. It is really auspicious for the country and it has to be like this."

"My Holy Emperor, this auspicious gift of sea salt from heaven is the beginning of the prosperity of our country, the Tang Dynasty, and its people."

Seeing these people being so complimentary here, Xu Yunyan told them about the production of the salt field and the method of drying sea salt, and then asked them to go back to their respective homes and go about their own business.

As for Xu Yunyan, of course he had to return to his home when he came to Zhaojiacun.

Niu Shangshan was in charge of sea salt production today. From a distance, he saw officials who were so impressive and dressed that even the county magistrate in the county government could not compare to them gathered near the salt field.

Although he knew that the salt pan made by his young master was definitely top-notch, being watched like this still made Niu Shangshan a little frightened.

But the young master told me

No matter what it is, just do what you do honestly, don't worry about other cows going up the mountain, and continue to lead the villagers of Zhaojiacun here to dry and make sea salt.

After Xu Yunyan asked them to leave, only Zhai Peng, Li Chun, Zhang Xia, and Zhao Dong were left guarding them. In addition to the four of them, there was also the large car of Xu Yunyan's reward that had come all the way back from Chang'an. Stay.

Xu Yunyan couldn't help but curl his lips when he looked at them.

"Aren't you four going to leave? I'm going home. Do you want to follow me home to eat and drink from me?"

As soon as Xu Yunyan finished delivering the food, Zhai Peng said directly, "I haven't seen the Governor for a long time. Of course I want to eat and drink from the Governor. Isn't it possible that the Governor will drive us away before we have a place to settle down?"

After Zhai Peng said this, he looked at Xu Yunyan and then shook his head.

"You, you were all chivalrous and courageous, or you shed your blood for the country. Why are you so playful and smiling? Could it be that your life is too comfortable and you have all fallen?"

Although Xu Yunyan was joking with them here, none of these people took Xu Yunyan's words as true. They all expressed here that as long as Xu Yunyan needed them to go into battle to kill the enemy, they would be absolutely unambiguous.

Xu Yunyan also believed that they could do such a thing, and then Xu Yunyan led them to the salt field. As Xu Yunyan and the others got closer and closer, they finally recognized the cow up the mountain.

Isn't this my young master?

Niu went up the mountain and hurriedly greeted him, "Master, you are back."

Hearing the words "Niu went up the mountain", the villagers in Zhaojiacun realized that Xu Yunyan was back and hurriedly surrounded him.

"Becoming an Immortal in One Step"

"Master, you are back. Is this journey safe?"

Looking at the concerned eyes of these people, Xu Yunyan nodded to them, "The journey was safe. You don't have to worry. Nothing happened. Now that His Majesty sees our Haiyan, Long Xin is delighted and has relieved us of a lot of burdens." Tax.

In the future, as long as you hold sea salt, you can bear our taxes. Do you think this is a good thing? Like this pile of salt

, our whole village does not need to pay any taxes for a year, and all the harvest in your fields will be yours. "

As soon as Xu Yunyan finished speaking, the villagers from Zhaojia Village cheered non-stop, and amidst their cheers, Niu Shangshan had already met the four brigade commanders behind Xu Yunyan under the introduction of Xu Yunyan.

And these four hotels did not treat Niu Shangshan as a servant. Instead, he was talking there like a friend.

They also wanted to be by Xu Yunyan's side, and did not want to deal with the intrigues in the officialdom. It was not that they liked the feeling of being an official, but they liked the feeling of staying with Xu Yunyan and being able to charge into battle together and protect their home and country.

The group of people returned to Zhaojiacun talking and laughing, but the cow went up the mountain and shouted loudly after entering Zhaojiacun.

"Fathers and fellow villagers, the young master is back, the young master is back!"

Following the shouts of the cows coming up the mountain, people in the village gathered at the place where the sound came from. They kept looking at them, feeling that such a high-ranking official had appeared in their village, and he even took them to dry salt. Although he didn't say It was to make a fortune, but it was a huge benefit that they could use the salt at will.

But just as they were here to welcome Xu Yunyan, after the men who came back from Yantian told the village the good news that they didn't have to pay taxes, these people even knelt down in front of Xu Yunyan here.

This is really a kindness that they can be grateful for, keep in their hearts for the rest of their lives, and never forget.

At this time, Xu Yunyan was made to accept neither a courtesy nor a courtesy from them. In the end, he had to persuade them to leave, and then took a chance to buy some food by himself, and have a meal and drink in the village together. After a while, they were persuaded to leave.

As Niu went up the mountain to his Xu Mansion, and after arriving at the Xu Mansion, seeing the Xu Mansion in such a state of desolation, the four teams behind Xu Yunyan couldn't help but sigh.

"Isn't it too simple, Governor? How about we add something more to you, Governor. You must be worthy of your status."

But when the four brigade commanders said this, Xu Yunyan disagreed.

"A golden kennel or a silver kennel is not as good as my own kennel. Even if it is a magnificent place, how can it be as good as this kennel where I can live in peace of mind?"
