Chapter 208: The crime of embracing jade

Zhou Yu squeezed the teacup tightly, then relaxed and pushed the teacup in front of Yang San, "Drink a cup of hot tea to warm yourself up."

Yang Xi noticed Yang San's soaked shoes, went back to the house and took out Zhou Yu's shoes, "Put on your brother-in-law's shoes."

Yang San enjoyed the feeling of being cared for. He thought that no family would care about him anymore in this life. He held the warm tea cup in his hands, and the mist filled his eyes, which made him unable to let go of the warmth.

Zhou Yu then asked carefully about the situation at the Ruizhou border, "Prefect Gu and General Bai are better informed than you. While they are wary of each other, they are also looking for news about whether the capital has been breached."

Yang San put down the tea cup in his hand and put the thin quilt on his legs, "There isn't much I can do in Ruizhou at the moment, I will put all my thoughts on the island."

Zhou Yu asked, "When will the horses you bought from the grassland merchants be delivered?"

Yang San responded quickly, "Brother-in-law, what do you think?"

Zhou Yu had many thoughts, "How much salt does the Xu family still have?"

Yang San, "I haven't used much salt from the Xu family. There is still a lot of salt from the Xu family."

He only used a dozen bags of salt for the entire cave.

Zhou Yu stood up, took a pen and paper, drew a map on the paper, and pointed to Mingzhou, where smuggling is the most powerful, "You use salt to buy stallions from prairie merchants, and ask them not to send the horses to Ruizhou, but to Mingzhou."

.”

Yang San, "When I bought a mare, I bought a stallion from them. They didn't dare to sell it. They said that the tribal leader strictly prohibited the sale of stallions to the Central Plains."

Zhou Yu snorted lightly, "That's because the price you gave is not enough for them to take the risk."

Yang San's heart ached when he thought of the Xu family's salt, and his distressed face twitched, "Brother-in-law, I need salt too."

He didn't stop recruiting his subordinates when he returned to Ruizhou. Now he has 5,000 subordinates including his family members, which makes him quite a powerful force, but the daily expenses also make him want to pull his hair out.

Zhou Yu snorted, "Stingy."

Yang San's face was stupefied. He really couldn't be proud. Every day he opened his eyes, he fed five thousand people. The stall he set up was not running yet, and now it was all supported by him.

Yang Xi pointed out something, "Can we still make you lack salt?"

Yang San stood up excitedly, "Sister, brother-in-law, do you still know how to dry salt?"

He has no access to salt mines and only sea water, so my sister and brother-in-law know how to dry salt from sea water?

Zhou Yu smiled and said nothing, and Yang San spun around in excitement. As expected, his sister and brother-in-law were his treasures.

Zhou Yu asked, "How much salt can the Xu family use to buy a stallion?"

Yang San suppressed his excitement and calmed down, "It's hard to buy stallions, especially good horses from the grassland. If you want grassland merchants to take risks, half of the Xu family's salt will be used."

Zhou Yu, "Now is not the most chaotic time. Now all the forces are waiting for the results in the capital. You have to race against time and build the island as much as possible."

Yang San was also anxious and had no time to give him, "I understand."

Zhou Yu did not discuss Wang with a different surname with Yang San. This was not something he should discuss. Yang Sanhui and Uncle Zhong analyzed that he was more concerned, "If we go to Yizhou, can you conquer the Bai family?"

Yang San sat up straight, his eyes blazing, "The escort agency has been split up, and Master Bai will come to Shanghe Village with the escorts who follow him."

Yang Xi was surprised, "The escort agency has been broken up?"

Regret flashed across Yang San's face, "I'm still late. Master Bai is the second master of the escort agency, and there are other masters of the escort agency. The brotherhood is challenged in the face of interests. The first master wants to bring the escort agency to surrender, but Master Bai is opposed to it."

, the two parties were in a stalemate when I went there."

Yang Xi heard Yang San say that the Bai family has more than 400 escorts, and asked quickly, "How many people can the Bai family take away?"

The smile on Yang San's face faded a little, "More than one hundred and seventy people."

Zhou Yu, "Not everyone is willing to leave their hometown. More than 170 people are already a lot."

Yang San, “It’s so different from what I expected.”

He is rushing to annex the entire escort agency.

Zhou Yu was not disappointed, "If you think about it from another perspective, you have taken away the 170 people who have the most important friendship with you. Wouldn't you be happier if you think so?"

Yang San was indeed happy. No one disliked people who valued friendship. These one hundred and seventy people would be loyal to him in the future.

Zhou Yu said again: "The Bai family's goal of taking so many people away from Yizhou is too big. Have you discussed countermeasures?"

Yang San curled his lips, "They will go north in batches. I will send a boat to wait at Nanhe and pick them up from Nanhe."

Zhou Yu didn't say much anymore, Yang San's thoughts were already very mature.

Yang Xi talked about Guanyi, "Can you see wanted portraits in Yiju?"

Yang San really didn't pay attention, shook his head, and then gloated, "Haha, he is wanted, so it seems that his mountain must be taken away."

He was very wary of Guan Yi. He felt that Guan Yi was the same type of person as him, but they were different.

With the guidance of his brother-in-law, he has a new bottom line. Guan Yi has no worries. It is too dangerous for such a person to be ruthless.

He knew that Guan Yi was developing power, so he kept sending people to keep an eye on Guan Yi and never relaxed. Now that Guan Yi has suffered a big setback, it will be difficult for Guan Yi to catch him!

When Yang San heard from his brother-in-law that Zhao Hua and Liu Yan had been sent to the escort agency, he smiled happily. His sister and brother-in-law were his solid backing. When he was not at home, his brother-in-law had arranged for him to be in charge of the city.

The rain became lighter, and Yang San got up and went to Zhong's house. He also wanted to analyze the situation in the capital.

The next day, Yang San left. He had to deal with Xiangxian's affairs. After finishing Xiangxian's affairs, he would go back to the island to wait for Master Bai, and then return to Shanghe Village with Master Bai.

Yang San went to the county in the morning and didn't come back until dinner time. He didn't go back to rest after dinner, and stayed with Yang Xi and his wife.

Yang San was very attentive. One day he would pour tea for Zhou Yu, and the next he would help Yang Xi get a fan.

Mrs. Ye looked sideways, "Xixuan, do you have something to ask your brother-in-law?"

Yang San was worried about sun-drying salt. He was scratching his head. Salt was so important to his future. Not only could he be self-sufficient, but he could also sell it in exchange for food and soldiers because of the large output. Especially when his sister revealed that their recipe for sun-drying salt was even better.

Well, he was more concerned about it.

Yang San glanced at his brother-in-law and saw that he had no intention of stopping him and there were no outsiders in the room. "I want to ask my brother-in-law and sister to help me dry the salt."

The tea cup in Zhou Bing's hand fell on the table. He suspected that his ears had heard it wrong. His tone was suspicious, "Brother knows how to dry salt?"

Yang San raised his head, "Brother-in-law and sister not only know how to make salt, they also make salt that is better than official salt."

Zhou Bing stared at his eldest brother with burning eyes. What kind of fairy eldest brother did he recognize? Yes, and his sister-in-law. He didn't think that Yang San would tell Yang San. It must have been his eldest brother who told Yang San.

Ye is a housewife, and she also knows the importance of salt. She asked in a daze, "Yu'er, do you really know how to sell salt that is better than official salt?"

Zhou Yu held his wife's hand and said, "My wife and I are sure. We haven't tested it yet, but we are sure."

Ye covered her heart. Why did she feel that her son and daughter-in-law had become more and more powerful since they left the capital?

At the same time, Ye's eyes turned red again. If the emperor is a wise king and her husband is still around, and her son can really produce salt that is better than official salt, the Zhou family will be honored for generations.
