Chapter 78: The Salt Gang

After leaving "Jun Mo Ting", Liu Mo parted ways with He Ruda.

On the way back to "Jingshui Pavilion", Liu Mo was in a good mood.

On the one hand, my teammates are very reliable. On the other hand, I am about to meet my two daughters-in-law whom I haven’t seen for a long time, so I am naturally in a good mood.

Yuan'er waited at the door for a long time. After seeing them, she quickly stepped forward and hugged Lin Shiqi tightly.

Obviously, the love between sisters far exceeds that of husband Liu Mo!

Xin'er leaned against the door. She had been away from Rongcheng for three months. She was six months pregnant and her belly had already swelled significantly.

"Husband, how are you lately?" Xiner was the first to speak, her smile still so warm.

Liu Mo stepped forward and gently stroked his swollen belly, "I should be more concerned about you."

In four months, I, Liu Mo, will be a father.

This feels like a dream.

Wang Xiaoqi came out to greet him and asked the waiter to come and take care of the horses.

Entering "Jingshui Pavilion", Liu Mo immediately announced that an important meeting would be held in the evening.

Today is different from the past, when Liu Mo was only thinking about how to run the restaurant.

Nowadays, when engaging in official salt channel business, there are too many things to consider.

At the meeting, Liu Mo announced that from now on, everyone who is related to Liu Mo will not be allowed to accept any gifts in private, and will not be allowed to contact anyone of unknown origin in private.

If you need to purchase anything, you can mention it to Lin Shiqi and purchase it together.

A simple description cannot give the enemy any chance to release sugar-coated bullets.

While on Earth, Liu Mo had seen too much similar information.

A good and upright official often falls into the hands of his relatives around him.

The only people he can and want to take care of are his three wives and Wang Xiaoqi and the few people around him.

The other clerks have already made what they have to explain, and whether they stick to it or not is entirely up to them.

If anything goes wrong, he will be kicked away and Liu Mo can't be blamed for being cruel.

After the explanation, Liu Mo went back to his room to rest.

Next, there are still too many things to do one by one.

The first and most crucial thing is to join the Salt Gang!

The next day, before dawn, Liu Mo got up.

After a simple breakfast, he took Zhao Da with him and the two of them set off to the location of the Salt Gang.

It took about an hour to reach the destination.

The salt gang is close to the waterfront, surrounded by gray morning mist on the river.

Looking up, I saw a large door with a romantic and solemn temperament. The round arched window and the stone masonry at the corner showed elegance and elegance.

As expected, it was the gang with the most money and wealth. Those who didn't know better thought it was the manor of a certain prince.

Walking forward, the guard at the gate blocked the way.

The two men were dressed in snow-white robes, symbolizing the whiteness of salt, but in Liu Mo's eyes, they looked like corpses wrapped in cloth. "Who is coming?"

"I am a salt merchant, and I am here to visit the leader of the Salt Gang!"

"You can meet the gang leader whenever you want?" the guard said in an extremely arrogant tone, "If you want to join the Salt Gang, go over there and pay the money first, and record it in the record. When it's your turn, someone will notify you!"

Liu Mo frowned. Not only did the servant at the door have such a bad attitude, but he also had to pay money first to be ranked?

Holding back his anger, "Brother, I would like to make it easier for you," Liu Mo said while taking out a letter from his sleeve. "This is a handwritten letter written by the new magistrate He Ruda, and it has his name on it.

's seal."

"What about the county magistrate? Even when the magistrate comes, he has to follow the rules!" the guard repeated slowly, as if he thought Liu Mo was an idiot and didn't understand what he just said.

Sure enough, just like the rumors, the salt gang today is so arrogant that a little guard of the salt gang actually doesn't take the government seriously. Such evil forces will one day destroy you!

To be honest, if we want to take action, this person is certainly not Zhao Da's opponent, but if he beats up the members of the Salt Gang when they meet, it will be difficult to get along.

But then again, if the gatekeeper's men succeeded like this, how could he still be a member of the Salt Gang? So he forced himself to smile.

"Brother, you should know Chen Zhiyuan, the previous county magistrate."

"Nonsense, boy, what do you want to say?" The guard's eyes were light gray, extremely dull and lifeless.

"Then you should know why he was stripped of his flower feathers." Zhao Da smiled slightly and reminded. "What you are seeing is none other than Liu Mo, Mr. Liu!"

The guards seemed to turn a deaf ear.

"Do you really want to know if the leader of the Salt Gang Palace would offend the prefect Jiang Lin for a gatekeeper?" Liu Mo said lightly, "Brother, can you please pass the message for me and give the letter to the person in charge?"

One of the guards was indifferent. Just when Liu Mo couldn't bear it anymore and was about to get tough, another guard suddenly said, "Mr. Liu, please wait a moment."

Although it was just a small victory, the fruit was still sweet, Liu Mo thought to himself. He had passed the first test.

Not long after, another guard from the Salt Gang came and said, "Mr. Liu, you can come in, but he can't!"

Liu Mo didn't want to worry about it, so he asked Zhao Da to stay and followed the visitor in.

Turn east, pass through an east-west hall, and then go to the south hall to reach the reception hall.

Pushing open the door and entering, several people who were discussing something stopped one after another.

"It's you!"

"Fuck, it's you!!!"

Liu Mo and another "old acquaintance" said in unison.

That person was none other than Zhou Zhushan, who had assassinated him before!

Zhou Zhushan was also shocked, half of his tone was disbelief, and the other half was of extreme disgust.

Damn it, there’s a narrow road between enemies!

Liu Mo stopped and quickly glanced around.

"What are you doing here?" Zhou Zhushan looked at him with sharp eyes, his face full of hatred.

"Join the Salt Gang." Liu Mo smiled, and then bowed to an old man in the hall who was about fifty years old. "You must be the old gang leader Gong. I'm Liu Mo, and I have met the old gang leader Gong.

.”

Gong Changyi: The leader of the Jiang Lin Prefecture Salt Gang, he has a tall body and has gained some weight due to his age, but he still looks handsome. His hair is sparse and there are some spots of gray in his beard.

"Are you Mr. Liu?" Gong Changyi stroked his beard and smiled, "I have long admired your name."

Liu Mo walked straight up to Gong Changyi and handed over the letter in his hand.

Gong Changyi stretched out his hand, picked up the letter and examined it carefully. "Master He is so thoughtful, even the sealing wax is from the government."

As he spoke, he removed the sealing wax and unfolded the letter.

Liu Mo watched Gong Changyi read the letter and glanced at Zhou Zhushan from the corner of his eye. The other person's face was gloomy and he was gritting his teeth.

Little bastard, I don’t know how you escaped, but don’t fall into my hands. Otherwise, you will be cut into pieces this time!

Liu Mo secretly swore...

Zhou Zhushan must have had the same idea as me and wanted to kill me.

"Haha, Mr. Zhou, Mr. Liu." Gong Changyi said after reading the letter, "Both of you want to join our salt gang, and you both have official approval documents for new salt. What a coincidence!"

What? Liu Mo was surprised!

Does this turtle egg have new salt? There is also a government approval for new salt!
