The big bandit in the Red Mansion robbed Lin Daiyu at the beginning

"Of course, we in Qingfeng Village never force anyone to do anything. Whether you want to go or stay is entirely up to you."

Many people were so angry that they cursed their mothers.

They are taking money from my own pocket. Isn't this forcing someone to do something against his will?

Although it is a ticket purchase, what is the difference between selling the ticket and snatching it?

Among them, how many of those who could become salt merchants in Yangzhou had their ancestral businesses not in Yangzhou?

How could I just throw everything away with just one sentence? But how could I dare to reveal anything in front of Qingfeng Village?

Many salt merchants who had some ideas in their minds had to give up some of them.

Qingfeng Village has cut off all their subsequent plans at the source.

As a salt merchant who has experienced the pain of being in the same crowd for a long time, he naturally understands.

When Qingfengzhai is trying to reason with you, you'd better follow suit.

But I thought that a ticket was too expensive just for a trip to Datong Mountain.

There are also people who think they are smart and ask,

"Excuse me, Mr. Liu, if I buy a half-day tour, what discount can I get?"

"How much is the discount for a half-day tour?"

Liu Quan was slightly startled, then he folded his arms and scratched his chin with his fingers.

"My hall master will probably break his bones!"

……

Yangzhou Salt Administration Office.

Lin Ruhai sat upright in the main hall, reading ancient books and sipping fragrant tea, feeling very comfortable.

Suddenly he frowned, put down the book and said,

"Strange, why do I always feel a little uneasy today?"

"Could there be trouble with the salt tax? That shouldn't be the case!"

He immediately shook his head, blaming himself for overthinking it.

Just as I was about to pick up the book to continue reading,

Uncle Lin came running into the hall and said to Lin Ruhai happily,

"The master is coming! The master is coming!"

Lin Ruhai's old face darkened, and he frowned and scolded,

"What's going on? Explain clearly!"

Even if Lin Ruhai scolded him,

Uncle Lin couldn't hide the smile on his face and said happily,

"Master! The salt merchants are coming with their caravans and silver to pay the salt tax!"

"The servants have inquired and found that many families are exchanging silver from the banknote exchange, or are collecting silver to send to our government office!"

"Oh?"

Lin Ruhai's eyes lit up, he stood up in surprise and burst into laughter.

"Hahaha! Okay! Okay! Okay!"

After saying "good" three times in a row, Lin Ruhai stroked his beard and the last trace of worry on his face disappeared.

He slowly sat down again and picked up the book.

The whole person said calmly,

"Give orders to follow the procedures and make sure the money entering the warehouse is verified!"

Uncle Lin nodded heavily.

"Hey! Good sir!"

After Uncle Lin left, Lin Ruhai put down the book, and could no longer suppress the smile on his face as he muttered to himself,

"This Qingfeng really has a perfect grasp of human nature!"

Suddenly he frowned, thought for a moment, and sighed softly.

Then he took the pen, ink, paper and inkstone and spread them out on the table.

After grinding the ink, he pondered for a long time before picking up the pen and writing on a blank memorial.

"I, Lin Ruhai, bow three times to the north and respectfully report: Yangzhou is the salt tax collector of Lianghuai..."

After a moment, Lin Ruhai finished writing the last word in one go and picked up the pen.

After placing the brush on the pen rest, he picked up the memorial with both hands and read it carefully from front to back.

He nodded with satisfaction and took out a large seal from the seal box beside him.

It was lightly printed on the memorial.

As soon as he raised the seal, he suddenly felt flustered.

He raised his head and frowned.

"What's going on? The salt merchants have come to pay the salt tax, so why are you still feeling so upset?"

"Could something happen in the mansion?"

He immediately shook his head.

"No, Qingfeng arranged for Rong Mama and the others to do this, but they are all skilled in martial arts, so the mansion is absolutely safe."

Then he looked outside the hall, thought for a moment, closed the memorial and stood up.

"I'd better go check it out! Otherwise I'll always feel uneasy!"

……

at the same time,

The back door of Lin Mansion.

Rong Mama brought two maids from Qingfeng Village,

He smiled and bowed to Qingfeng Li.

"Master Bee! Please come in! My wife is in the garden enjoying the view."

"But there are so many people in front, so I have to ask you to go through this back door."
