Water Margin: The opening scene involves assassinating Emperor Huizong of Song and forcibly taking L

If it's just for a big insect

This old man, Mao, might not kill him.

But just now,

If those were the things he saw,

It spread.

So, what about the Mao family?

It's clear that annihilation is imminent!

Based on this alone,

Mao Taigong clearly wouldn't let him off the hook...

Chapter 928 Salt

But thinking back to what I had just seen...

Xie Zhen couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

If I had known I would see that,

He then stopped going forward.

Or perhaps they simply knocked on the door of Mr. Mao's house to inquire.

Perhaps the tiger had already been killed long ago.

They took it!

How did things end up like this!

Thinking of this,

Jie Zhen quickly looked up and said.

"Grandpa, it was pitch black in the courtyard just now,"

"What exactly are you doing?"

"I really didn't see anything?"

"Hmph, I didn't see it,"

Old Master Mao snorted coldly.

"Why are you running if you can't see me?"

"And you let your brother run so fast!"

"We...we just sneaked into the backyard, didn't we?"

Jie Zhen chuckled dryly.

"Because I was worried that my great-grandfather would misunderstand, that's why..."

Grandpa Mao remained silent, his face dark.

After staring at Xie Zhen for a long time...

Then he spoke,

"Don't blame me, blame yourself for insisting on..."

Upon hearing what Grandpa Mao said,

Jie Zhen immediately sensed something was wrong.

No longer caring about anything else,

He quickly spoke up,

"Grandpa, I will never tell anyone about those things!"

"I promise..."

"Hmph, so you did see it just now, didn't you?"

Old Master Mao snorted coldly.

Jie Zhen also realized she had let something slip.

He could only say with a bitter face,

"Grandpa, we're all from the same village,"

"Please, Grandfather, show leniency!"

"If I spare you today, I'm afraid you won't last more than a few days,"

Old Master Mao said with a hint of regret on his face,

"Our family should be the ones losing our heads!"

Jie Zhen shook her head.

At this point,

They could only remain silent.

original,

What he just saw

This could frighten Mao Taigong so much.

What they were were loads of coarse salt!

Just now,

After Jie Zhen had his brothers hide it well,

Driven by my curiosity,

Go forward to check.

To find out why it's so late at night,

There are still so many people busy in Grandpa Mao's courtyard.

But unexpectedly, he stepped forward.

Using the torches in the courtyard,

Jie Zhen immediately saw it clearly.

The reason why the courtyard is so busy is...

It's all because that old man, Mr. Mao, is with his son, Mao Zhongyi.

Commanding the servants,

They carried loads of coarse salt.

Move it into the cellar in that courtyard!

At a glance,

Jie Zhen then noticed the courtyard.

Everywhere there were loads of coarse salt.

Look,

There must be at least a hundred loads!

To know,

Salt is a substance...

Although it is essential for the human body

But everyone every day,

They might eat a tiny bit, about the size of their little fingernail.

Apart from that salt merchant,

Who would be at home?

Stockpiling so much salt!

Jie Zhen grew up in Dengzhou.

They knew everything about the Mao family.

I knew their family was just ordinary landlords and gentry.

They relied entirely on their several thousand acres of fertile land.

They recruited tenant farmers to make a living.

He was neither a salt merchant,

Now, in the courtyard of this old man Mao,

And then this much coarse salt appeared.

Jie Zhen was in her heart.

I immediately remembered it.

That salt fortress of Liangshan!

Two weeks ago,

The Liangshan Salt Village was breached by a stratagem.

Overnight,

Tens of thousands of dan (a unit of weight) of coarse salt disappeared from the village.

this matter,

This is already common knowledge in Dengzhou.

But the salt fortress of Liangshan

Who exactly breached the defenses?

The coarse salt in those villages,

Who took it this time?

Nobody knows?

This is also recently,

People throughout Dengzhou were talking about it.

The brothers Jie Zhen and Jie Bao,

We were just discussing the coarse salt from these Liangshan salt fortresses.

Who knew in the end,

I actually saw it in Grandpa Mao's courtyard!

This is why,

After discovering that Jie Zhen had seen the coarse salt in the yard, Old Man Mao...

Why are you so nervous?

That's why I'm so scared!

To know,

After Liangshan learned that the salt fortress had been captured,

A large army has already been dispatched to Dengzhou.
