Gao Peng was sleeping soundly with his two beautiful maids in his arms.
As a result, a burst of shouting woke him up.
When he heard Jin Sheng's voice, he became even more angry.
Throwing on his clothes, he slammed the door and walked out, "If you don't stay well in Beiba Village, why did you come back in the middle of the night?"
Jin Sheng didn't care about Gao Peng's anger, and just said quickly, "Master, didn't you ask Wu Zi'en to send me a message to pay attention to whether there is any salt in Li Qian's house? I found salt in Li Qian's house. There was a lot of salt in his house, and there were several jars full of salt. You can’t find this kind of salt on the market, it’s very thin and white.”
Gao Peng was stunned for a moment, and his anger suddenly disappeared, "Really?"
"I saw it with my own eyes. I even brought a small bottle back to show the young master." Jin Sheng said.
He immediately took out the small bottle of salt and handed it to Gao Peng.
Gao Peng took the vial and poured a little into his hand.
It’s really snow-white and fine, but is it salt?
He also dipped his fingers into it and tasted it.
His expression also changed immediately.
"Go and call Mr. Zhou!"
Five large oil lamps illuminated the room.
Gao Peng looked at the small bottle of salt on the table, with excitement in his eyes.
He didn't expect to ask Wu Zien to take the message today, but Jin Sheng brought him the news today. The speed was so fast that he was a little surprised.
However, this also proves that his men are able to do things well.
good very good.
Master Zhou walked in.
Gao Peng also stood up immediately, "Mr. Zhou, come and take a look. This is the salt that Jin Sheng found at Li Qian's house. I have never seen such fine salt!"
Master Zhou just walked forward slowly and unhurriedly.
I poured some salt out of the small bottle and looked at it carefully for a long time before twisting some and putting it in my mouth.
Then he closed his eyes and savored the taste of the salt.
"Jin Sheng, why have you lost weight?" Gao Peng didn't bother Master Zhou. He originally wanted to praise Jin Sheng, but he was surprised when he saw that Jin Sheng had lost some weight.
He really didn't notice it before, but now that the lights were bright, he realized it.
When mentioning this matter, Jin Sheng looked aggrieved and angry.
"It's all that brat Li Qian who starved me to this point!"
"Isn't he kind to the refugees? Doesn't he still have rice to eat every day? How could he make you so hungry and thin?" Gao Peng asked in surprise.
"He treats the refugees kindly. The other refugees do have rice to eat, but for some reason, he only gives me wild vegetable porridge, and I can only eat one meal a day." Jin Sheng said angrily.
Of course, he would not dare to say that this was what he asked for, otherwise it would be weird if he didn't get scolded by the young master for being stupid.
"He only gave you wild vegetable porridge, and only one meal a day? Did he find you?" Gao Peng's face suddenly darkened.
After all, targeting Jin Sheng in this way must not be unprovoked.
"Sir!" At this moment, Master Zhou opened his eyes, "This salt is indeed good salt!"
Gao Peng also immediately stopped caring about Jin Sheng.
"Mr. Zhou, why don't we take people to Beiba Village now, arrest this Li Qian, and force him to find out the specific location of the salt mine."
"Even if he has good salt, it doesn't mean he extracted it from the salt mine." Master Zhou said, "We went to arrest people rashly, and he used this to refute us. What can we do with him? Besides, there is Zhuang Shaoyuan watching us from behind. If we go to arrest him, we will get nothing, and we may even let Zhuang Shaoyuan use the topic to his advantage, which is really a rash move."
Gao Peng was silent for a long time after hearing this, and nodded, "Mr. Zhou is right. It seems that I am still a little impatient."
Then he said to Jin Sheng, "Go back to Beiba Village immediately. Don't attract Li Qian's attention. If you find anything, ask Wu Zi'en to bring me a message. After all, he is a local young master and has easier access than you."
Jin Sheng had a sad face. Do you want to go back?
Originally, he slipped out and didn't want to go back.
But he didn't dare to disobey the young master's orders.
"By the way, you have been in Beiba Village for so long, but have you ever known where Li Qi'an got the stones for making chalk?" Gao Peng then asked.
Jin Sheng shook his head, "I am almost exhausted every day. When I wake up, rocks are piled there."
"What a waste." Gao Peng was originally going to praise Jin Sheng a few words, but now seeing Jin Sheng's appearance, he really couldn't praise him.
"Forget it, you don't need to inquire about the stone. I have already handed it over to Wu Zi'en. Just keep an eye on Li Qian and me. Once the news is true, no one will be left in Beiba Village!"
