Jinzhong suddenly received Zhu Di's super courtesy, which made Jinling City a lot of speculation.

"Lord Jin can't do it?"

"Nonsense. In the afternoon, I saw him coming home with a piece of marinated meat. He couldn't see his eyes."

"What does your majesty mean?"

"Maybe I think the old man has worked hard and made great achievements."

"Can the young master's credit not be high? And he's not in good health, but when do you think the whole Taiji hospital is out!"

“……”

Zhu Di probably didn't expect that his casual behavior would lead to so much discussion. He is reading the memorial.

"Your Majesty, the three men confessed. The salt merchant above them is Jaffe."

Liu Guan feels very forced. At present, his main job is Zuo Du imperial censor, but there is no Shangshu of the Ministry of punishment, so he has to work part-time for some time.

You say part-time, just part-time. It's a big deal. It's hard, but I actually encounter this kind of thing.

If Jin Zhong is a pot bearer, Liu Guan is an innocent passer-by involved. If Zhu Di sent him to arrest Jia Fei, it would be difficult to deal with the matter. If he didn't do it well, he would fall into it.

"Who's Jaffe?"

……

In a village outside Jinling City.

Jaffe was originally a gangster. He was tough enough to fight, and soon gathered a group of his men. After getting the first pot of gold, he took some steps and successfully got the ticket to open China and France.

Compared with other salt merchants, Jaffe's means of doing things are more direct. If he gets in his way, kill him.

Although this way of doing things is easy to offend people, Jaffe relies on his own relationship and aggressively devours the market. So far, one third of Jinling's salt supply is his business.

With his dark face and short stature, if his clothes were not reminding others of his wealth, he would probably be regarded as a rural farmer.

But it was the farmer's appearance that cut down the present family property with a long knife.

This day, Jia Fei was watching several accounting rooms calculate the recent income. After hearing the rapid footsteps, he raised his eyes and saw that his confidant platinum east came with a panic on his face.

"What's up?"

Jaffe's first impression is perseverance. He has a strong appearance and temperament. The short two words are sonorous and powerful.

Platinum East looked at the accountants and whispered, "brother, the three companies that took the goods from us have been arrested!"

Jaffe's eyes were still firm. He didn't move. He said in a deep voice, "do you know the reason?"

Platinum said, "my little brother went to fan's house. Lord fan sent word that it was Jin Zhong's family who went to buy salt today. It was found that it was wrong. Then the old thief Jin Zhong sent someone to catch them."

Jaffe was lost in thought, but platinum East could not help but say, "brother, we cook the salt ourselves. Experts can tell it."

There are differences in quality between official salt and private salt, and the salt in each place is different. Of course, the salt supplied to Jinling is the best, so platinum East has this concern.

Jia Fei's eyes moved and said faintly, "Jin Zhong is just a dog taking a mouse. Don't forget, it doesn't matter who those big salt merchants are in the court? It doesn't matter. They have been swallowed long ago!"

Buckinghead said happily, "brother, do you mean that those people will naturally calm this matter?"

"Of course." Jaffe's eyes flashed a fierce look: "if they don't calm down, they can't run!"

……

"Uncle, it's a little strange!"

Huang Zhong was able to participate. When he learned that Jaffe didn't run away, he thought it was a little troublesome.

A competent salt merchant is not a fool, but Jaffe doesn't run, which shows that he is confident that the fire won't burn him.

In the study, Wan Wan sat solemnly opposite Fang Xing, holding a chess piece in her hand, and her little eyebrows were twisted into baby silkworms.

Fang Xing pointed to the chessboard and signaled Huang Zhong to talk later.

Wan Wan was a beginner. Seeing that her white chess had been almost mentioned, she pouted and said, "Fang Xing, you deceive the small with the big. This game doesn't count."

Fang Xing smiled: "then why don't you go and have a look at the newly made juice?"

"Good, good!"

Sour and sweet fruit juice is Wan Wan's favorite, among which the fruit juice made by Fang family is an indispensable food.

After Wan Wan couldn't wait to leave, Fang woke up and asked, "there's no sign of Najafi picking up his belongings?"

Huang Zhong said: "no, according to Jia Quan, his family is the same as usual, and even the shipment has not been affected."

"Interesting!" Fang Xing said with a smile, "it seems that the things discussed that day haven't leaked out. That's fun."

As soon as Huang Zhong thought about it, he smiled and said, "I don't know who Najafi depends on. It's killing people."

"Hu Guang still knows the general, and those assistant ministers also have this integrity..."

Fang woke up and stopped talking because the knife came.

"Sir, your majesty has a will."

Huang Zhong immediately reacted. He said with a bitter smile, "uncle, Lord Jin carried the first pot. It seems that your majesty wants you to carry the second pot!"

"This is not a pot."

Fang woke up and said, "since I am in charge of Jubao mountain guard, I am naturally duty bound to use force."

After arriving at the front, the will really made Fang wake up and immediately took someone to copy Jia Fei and his gang.

After Fang Xing received the will, he asked Fang Wu to talk about Zhuangzi.

Fang Wu took out a sketch and said, "Sir, the wall of the main house is very thick. When I opened the door, I looked at it with a telescope from the side. It seems to be double-layer brickwork."

"Where's the wooden door?"

Fang woke up and looked at the terrain. He felt that he could get rid of the formation and surround it, so he asked casually.

Fang Wu scratched his head and said, "it feels a little heavy. It's probably good wood."

Mr. Xin seven already had an abdominal case. He pointed to the sketch and said, "Sir, Najafi's men have more than 200 lives. If we attack from the gate, there will be casualties. We'd better cover with guns and grenades and blow up the wall."

Fang Wu thought it was the safest thing to do, but Fang woke up and shook his head and said, "no, let's attack today!"

"Master..."

Xin Laoqi thinks Fang Xing should not be a person who ignores casualties, but what's the matter today?

Fang woke up and said, "old seven and Fang five go to find Lin Qun'an and pull out two thousand families. Also, I want a gun."

Xin Laoqi suddenly realized it and hurried to the barracks with Fang Wu.

Fang woke up and looked at the sky and explained to Huang Zhong, "it must be killing. If your wife asks, you say I went to the military camp to see the drill."

Huang Zhong took the order and went to the front hall.

Fang Xing set out with a knife and another servant, but he met Zhu Zhanji on the way.

"Brother Dehua, let's try the power of that gun this time?"

Fang woke up and saw that although Zhu Zhanji didn't have a armor, he was dressed neatly. He nodded and said, "I've ordered someone to take a gun with me. Today we'll take Jaffe to test the gun."

Only Jia Quan had seen artillery among Zhu Zhanji's bodyguards, so they didn't know the significance of Zhu Zhanji's persistence.

But when they met with jubaoshanwei and saw the gun dragged by two horses, they couldn't help but doubt the power of the gun.

"Let's go."

Fang Xing is also looking forward to the first actual battle of the artillery, even if the opponent is just some outlaws.

All the way around the city, I finally found Chuang Tzu ten miles outside Jiangdong gate
