Of the four knights sent out by Luo Yangxing, the two who went to Changlu did not gain anything. Only the other two knights who went to the salt field found Wang Wenyan and passed on the news.

Wang Wenyan had his own considerations as to why he rushed to the salt field. If someone wanted to destroy the salt field, they couldn't just kill the salt workers who worked here. There must be a leader to deal with it.

Zhang Shize is the direct grandson of the British prince. He has a distinguished status and no one dares to touch him. Wang Sheng is the grandson's uncle, and the same is true. Wei Zhongxian is an eunuch in the palace. He has an extraordinary background and is not easy to touch. From the beginning to the end, it looks like

As long as he keeps busy, Wang Wenyan, who promotes and leads the construction of the salt farm, is the most suitable person.

Changlu Town is the enemy's base camp, so staying there is not courting death. Besides, if Taisun wants to send someone here, he must be guarding the salt field. Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, Wang Wenyan ran to the salt field by himself, not only

In this way, he also brought the remaining ten Jin Yiwei and Liu Bin's group there.

When the messenger Jin Yiwei found him, he was supervising the production in the salt field, while Liu Bin, who was temporarily under his command, was counting the quantity of salt and preparing for future sales. The entire salt field looked in order and was not disturbed at all.

People destroy signs.

"What? Your Highness actually brought someone here in person!" Wang Wenyan was very surprised. He never expected that it was the young emperor's grandson who came in person. He thought he would request an imperial edict and send other troops to protect him.

But there was nothing he could say at this time. He could not interfere with the emperor's grandson's decision. The only thing he could do was to carry out the tasks ordered by the other party and organize people to prepare meals and boiled water. As for the house and residence, even without Zhu Youxiao's instructions,

He couldn't afford it either.

This was originally a simple salt village with only a little over 200 people. The current houses were built just to win over people when he built the salt farm here. There are no extra ones at all.

Food for two hundred people is not too troublesome to prepare. The salt field itself is responsible for the daily meals of the saltmen, and all kinds of tableware and cooking utensils are available. It is only necessary to buy more food for two hundred people at dinner.

That night, this order was conveyed by Wang Wenyan, and soon the kitchen made up of Yanding's family members became busy.

After a short break at noon, Zhu Youxiao and his men set off again. Carrying spears and carrying cowhide backpacks, two hundred young men came down from the resting slope, lined up on the official road, and then walked to Luo Yangxing's

Under the guidance, set off silently.

Compared to the morning, the afternoon trip was much duller. After a whole morning of marching, the teenagers had exhausted a lot of energy and had not recovered. At noon, Zhu Youxiao had already informed that they would not stop until the evening.

They would rest and eat after reaching their destination. In order to save every energy, naturally, the young men kept silent and Hammerhead walked on silently.

Soon, the afternoon passed, and the sky slowly darkened. After an afternoon of non-stop marching, most of the teenagers' physical strength was almost at the bottom, but they still gritted their teeth and persisted, not for any reason, just because of their minds.

His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun, the most noble one among them, has walked from morning till now just like them.

Your Highness can persevere, why can't we?

The sky gradually darkened, but the team still walked without listening, but the formation was adjusted. The official road was originally wide, and in the daytime, because of fear of blocking the road, they always walked side by side. But at night

There were no pedestrians in the wild, so the team was changed by Zhu Youxiao to five people marching abreast.

The entire team has been greatly shortened, which can not only reduce the risk of someone getting lost, but also enable timely response when encountering emergencies. A row of five people is already a small square formation, enough to cope with most raids. Although the teenagers are walking fast

Somewhat powerless, but still meticulously abiding by the rules of the march, the entire team is still very orderly.

Zhu Youxiao was alone outside, looking after him before and after running. At the same time, he read loudly the key points of the night march, asking the teenagers to keep up with their companions and not to fall behind. The twenty squad leaders also

His request was to count the number of people in his class every once in a while.

Because they eat meat every day, night blindness is basically non-existent among the two hundred people. In addition, various strict measures were taken to ensure that Zhu Youxiao's team would not lose anyone during the night march.

Changlu Town.

The most central area in Changlu Town is, of course, the Salt Transportation Department. The top salt transportation ambassador is naturally a man of the hour here. He controls the production and sales of salt in the entire Changlu Salt District.

The guarding eunuchs stationed here to select tribute salt for the palace cannot compare with it.

However, the most prosperous place in Changlu Town is not located here, but the long street located at the east city gate. Changlu Town is a small town with a small population and low city walls. There is only one city gate in total.

, where people gather, it is naturally a prosperous place. Most of the people who come here are related to salt, so they are naturally generous. The various places for enjoyment here are not much worse than those in the capital.

Peony House is the best place for romance in Changlu Town. In the private room on the second floor, a group of people are drinking and having fun. One of them is the one who spread the news that Wang Wenyan destroyed the salt farm on his own.

They are all people who make a living from salt, and this is the headquarters of the entire Changlu Salt District, so it is inevitable to talk about this aspect.

"Brother Li, I heard that there is a salt field opened in Tianjin. It is said that the salt is produced using some kind of sun-salting method. The quality of the salt is not bad, and fine salt is produced directly. Is there such a thing?" A black man with five big and three thick hair said,

Taking advantage of his drunkenness, he asked with a half-smile.

Brother Li's expression changed when he heard this, and he quickly denied it, "What happened? You must have heard it wrong, Black King Kong. I wonder where you heard the rumor?"

"Haha, really, I just asked casually, just talking." Heijingang laughed, casually revealed it, and talked about other topics.

However, none of the people present at the meeting were born from fighting. They were all human beings. How could they not tell? This Black King Kong was obviously not asking casually. And Brother Li's reaction also confirmed them that there is indeed such a salt farm.

The salt method produces salt.

After such an episode, the atmosphere in the room was no longer as strong and casual as before, and the banquet ended in a hurry soon after. And Brother Li also hurried back to the Li family mansion in the west.

Boom, boom, boom!

After entering the depths of the mansion, Brother Li stopped in front of a wing door and knocked on the door.

"Come in." An old but calm voice came from inside.

Brother Li took a deep breath and pushed the door open. What he saw was an energetic old man. At this moment, the old man was holding a writing brush and practicing calligraphy with his wrist hanging. Seeing this, he did not disturb him, but stayed quietly beside him.

He stood quietly, waiting for the old man to finish writing.

"What's the matter?" The old man placed the brush on the brush washer, turned around and asked.

"Sir, many of the people who came to pick up the goods already know about the salt drying field in Tianjin. Even Black King Kong, who has always been cruel and very unpopular, knows about it." The man known as Brother Li answered respectfully.

"I know, you go down." The old man didn't care, turned around and started cleaning the brushes in the brush wash. His cleaning movements were measured and full of everyone's style.

"Yes, sir." Brother Li didn't say anything and quietly retreated.

"Has it spread already? It's good to know that the people we contacted from the south should come over in the next day or two." The old man silently cleaned the brush and hung it on the pen holder, then suddenly murmured to himself.

Boom!

At this moment, as soon as the old man finished speaking, a muffled thunder suddenly exploded in the sky, and suddenly the wind surged, and the strong wind carrying moisture blew everywhere, making the room rattle.

"It's going to rain!" The old man looked at the gloomy outside and closed the door with a creak.

"Oops, it's going to rain." At the same time, Zhu Youxiao also looked up at the sky. He never expected that it would rain in the north in winter.

"Everyone, hurry up, we'll be there soon, hold on." He shouted, and then took the lead to speed up the pace. The young man behind took a look, gritted his teeth and followed. Luo Yangxing also took the lead and went ahead.

Go to the salt field and ask the people there to prepare.

Riding a horse is naturally fast. Although Luo Yangxing's horse has been walking for a day, it is not too tiring because it keeps the same speed as people. Now that the horse is whipping, the distance is very close, only about ten minutes.

We rushed to the salt field.

The arrival of Luo Yangxing immediately caused the salt farm to panic.

Piles of bonfires were burned in the open space at the entrance of the village. There were large iron pots on them, and they began to reheat the food prepared early in the morning. Everyone started it and heated it slowly. Some people also started to heat it up.

I went to clean the warehouse and prepare a place for the people who were about to arrive.

There is nothing we can do about it. No one thought that it would rain in the winter in the north. Fortunately, we took this into consideration when we built the salt farm. We built many warehouses. Some warehouses were filled with salt, while others were empty and just needed.

Come here to give someone shelter from the wind and rain.

But when the saltmen were busy, they didn't notice that there were dim lights on the sea to the east, floating towards this side.

Tianjin City, Tianjin Bingbeidao Yamen. A man dressed as an officer came in a hurry and found Bingbeidao where the Hou Yamen lived.

"Sir, the soldiers stationed on the bell tower discovered that there were lights approaching about twenty miles to the south. According to the judgment, there are three large ships that want to anchor here." The officer reported respectfully. Facing Lord Hebeidao, his posture

Set it very low.

"Twenty miles to the south." Tianjin Bingbeidao touched his beard, "It seems that a new salt farm has been built over there." As if he remembered something, he raised his head and ordered: "You don't have to pay attention to this matter, pay close attention.

That’s fine, as long as those three ships don’t approach the port.”
