Chapter 343 Lin’s Salt Industry was smuggled(2/2)
Cai Yushi smiled and said: "There are many righteous people in the court, and the chief minister cannot cover up the sky with one hand."
In fact, Cai Yushi still had some secrets that he did not tell Fei Yunshi - Shen Shoufu might be running out of time to take care of himself, and by then, Shen Shoufu might not be able to care about protecting Lin Tailai.
On the contrary, what happened to Lin Tailai might add another charge to the chief assistant.
In this case, Cai Shiding has made a great contribution, and won't his future be brighter and brighter?
If it hadn't been for the trouble caused by Shen Shoufu, Cai Shiding would have already become a doctor in the Six Divisions. Why did he live in Yangzhou and delay being promoted?
Fei Yunshi did not know these secrets, and he was reluctant to give up the official position of Yan Yunshi, so he could only do things based on luck under Cai Yushi's coercion.
After that, for several days, Lin Daguan came to the Salt Transportation Department every day, which directly caused the Salt Transportation Department's business to be paralyzed.
On this day, Suzhou Guard Deputy Qianhu and Yangzhou Shuicicang Bei Yuying Commander Zhao Dawu were inspecting the warehouse.
It is now the season when the spring water transport begins, so we cannot afford to be careless.
As soon as I walked around the warehouse, I saw a soldier running towards me, shouting: "Something has happened! Our salt has been seized by the saltmen from the Taizhou Branch!"
It is said that this incident is very bad, enough to make any salt industry practitioner tremble with fear.
But Zhao Dawu thought about his backer, the official Lin, and said confidently: "Don't panic! Please explain it to me in detail!"
According to Lin Daguan's intention to win people's hearts and the original agreement, most of the salt products of Lin's Salt Industry are carried by the Suzhou Guard Cao Army.
The internal structure of other salt industry groups is generally subdivided into traders, transporters and other links.
The person who is responsible for collecting and distributing salt in the salt field is called a salt field merchant, and the person who transports salt from the salt field to the diversion area for wholesale is called a transporter.
Within Lin's Salt Industry, Wu Deng, the second shopkeeper who is familiar with the Lianghuai Salt Fields, plays the role of market dealer.
There is one difference between Lin's Salt Industry and other salt merchants, that is, the role of transport merchant and part of the profits are handed over to the Suzhou Guards Cao Army. This is the biggest feature of Lin's Salt Industry.
Not counting the 5,000 new nests that have not yet been issued, Lin's Salt Industry currently rents 12,000 nests.
According to current official regulations, 2.4 million jins of normal salt and an equal amount of surplus salt can be transported each year, adding up to about 5 million jins of losses.
Salt products exceeding this amount are so-called "smuggling".
According to Lin Daguan's plan, during the water transport season from February to September, 600,000 to 800,000 jins of salt will be transported every month.
Zhao Dawu, who was stationed at Shuicicang in Yangzhou, in addition to guarding Shuicicang, also worked part-time to coordinate and distribute the Cao Army's salt transportation affairs, which could be regarded as "doing private work" for Lin Daguan.
Therefore, if there was a problem with the salt transportation, it was immediately reported to Zhao Dawu.
The soldier continued: "We, the Suzhou Wei brothers, were detained together with the canal boat and 300,000 kilograms of salt cargo!"
Three hundred thousand catties? Zhao Dawu was a little confused when he heard this amount.
He made the salt transportation plan. This batch should be 200,000 jins. Why is there an extra 100,000 jins?
Then Zhao Dawu reacted immediately and cursed loudly: "Wu Deng, this cuckold bastard!"
He had already figured out that the extra 100,000 kilograms must be Wu Deng's own private goods! And he was smuggled on a smooth sailing ship of Lin's Salt Industry!
Zhao Dawu quickly made a judgment in his mind. The 200,000 kilograms from Lin's Salt Industry should not be a big problem. They were all certified. It was just that the increased losses might be a little more.
The seizure this time must be due to something wrong with Wu Deng's 100,000 kilograms of private salt without any certificate.
One hundred thousand kilograms of smuggled salt without any basis is enough to convict all those involved in the crime of serious crimes! From the salt collector to the salt transporter, no one can escape!
Thinking of this, Zhao Dawu couldn't help but let out a long sigh and angrily recited a poem: "The song of neon clothes reaches thousands of peaks, and the dance breaks down in the original!"
Is it possible that Lin Daguan, who is so wise and powerful, will also be troubled by beauty?
I have long heard that Wu Deng is not a good person, transporting at least 700,000 to 800,000 kilograms of illegal salt a year.
But Official Lin was willing to let it go, allowing Wu Deng to smuggle under the banner of Lin's Salt Industry and make extra money for himself!
If it weren't for Wu Tian's beauty, who would believe that Lin Daguan could be so tolerant and generous?
Zhao Dawu thought about it, turned around and walked out. He wanted to go to Yangzhou City to visit Mr. Lin in person!
No, this is a remonstration! I want to offend Yan Zhijian! Please advise Lin Daguan to wake up, cut off the troubles caused by the enchantress, and don’t make fun of the foundation!
