Chapter 400 Finding the Salt Seller

Inside the Fenghua Building.

Zhou Tie, Qian Desheng, Zhao Lie and others were all sitting around in the reception room.

Xie Xian sat in the main seat, looked at the pile of information in his hand, raised his head and asked.

"Is this the information for all members? Is there anything missing?"

The waiter nodded: "The shopkeepers are all here, there will be no mistakes."

Xie Xian nodded and said softly: "Well, let's go out."

After the boy turned around and left, Xie Xian rubbed his brows, feeling a little irritable.

Along the way, he told everyone about Jianjiang's general situation.

After arriving in Jianjiang and only having one day's rest, he led everyone to rush to Fenghua Tower without stopping.

According to the master's request, the investigation of the salt administration was conducted undercover.

This power without identity and power can only find an entry point through Fenghua Tower.

Fenghualou had already arranged for someone to take charge of its management when it left Jianjiang.

All members must create corresponding files.

There may be someone who can be useful here, so I came here to check it out.

However, the results were obviously disappointing, and not much useful information was found.

Zhao Lie looked at his frown and asked, "Sir, is there nothing gained?"

Xie Xian shook his head.

Zhou Tie glanced at the thick stack of information and asked: "Lao Xie, we have been walking for such a long time, and there are so many more members. Fenghualou's business is good."

"There are all rich people here, isn't there even a salt merchant?"

Qian Desheng, who had been silent all this time, spoke up: "With all due respect, I also visited Fenghua Tower just now. It's really good here."

"But... I'm afraid it won't catch the eyes of salt merchants."

"The financial power of the salt merchant is beyond the imagination of ordinary people. Back then, I visited the salt merchant's home with His Majesty."

"A mansion covering an area of ​​thousands of acres! There are so many beauties and intricately carved features that even His Majesty couldn't help but marvel when he saw it!"

"Jianjiang is only a key place for circulation, not a major salt-producing area. Fenghualou's reputation is not enough to attract salt merchants to come all the way."

"Even if we search, we can only find private salt dealers. But those people are engaged in beheading business. How can you find traces here?"

"Even if I like it here, I would rather spend more money than get any membership."

Before Xie Xian could speak, Zhou Tie gave him a white look: "Old man! Are you the only one who talks a lot? What can you remember at such an old age?"

"No matter how awesome the salt dealer is, can he be more awesome than our Taoyuan County counterpart?"

Hearing his strange anger, Qian Desheng stood up suddenly, pointed at him with an orchid in his hand, and said angrily: "Zhou Tie! Are you done yet? Are you going to contradict us along the way?"

Zhou Tie sneered: "What the hell! Do you think you are still the same palm print eunuch before? You just take money and do nothing! If I hadn't been very capable, I might have been in trouble! I will remember this for my whole life!"

Qian Desheng was not convinced: "You are so tough! You can buy the top pick with money, how do you know that the second place is not bought with money?"

"You're so interested in following me, aren't you!" Zhou Tie glared, rolled up his sleeves and headed over.

Zhao Lie quickly stood up and went to pull him.

Qian Desheng raised his head, closed his eyes, and screamed: "Try fucking hitting me!"

"The master is going to marry our princess in the future, and our family can't kill you!"

"Bah! Are you the only one who still wants to go to heaven!?" Zhou Tie said hard, but his fists were slowly lowered.

This was not the first time Qian Desheng had revealed this to him on the way here, and he was not sure what the situation was.

What if I really get married? This old eunuch’s ability to fan the wind and light up will-o’-the-wisps is extraordinary!

Seeing that he gave in, Qian Desheng smiled coldly: "Oh, you little trash, you have no strength!"

"Damn it, you have to die today!!!"

"That's enough!" Xie Xian slammed the table and said angrily: "I'm here to do business, what's the point of getting entangled in the past grudges."

"If you make any more noise, I will report it to the government!"

The two of them immediately stopped talking.

Zhao Lie secretly extended his thumb towards Xie Xian, he is indeed a gentleman!

"Steward Qian is right. We definitely can't get along with serious salt merchants, so we can only find private salt dealers." Xie Xian said.

"Sir, where can I find private salt dealers? Is there any relationship between private salt and official salt?" Zhao Lie asked.

Xie Xian smiled slightly: "I have also sold private salt in the county. These people can be found in almost every city, but they are big or small."

"In a core location like Jianjiang City, there will definitely be private salt dealers."

"They are private salt dealers in name, but in fact the salt in their hands comes from the official salt field."

"Otherwise, with the amount of salt used in Taoyuan County, which private salt dealer would dare to make so much salt privately?"

Zhao Lie said thoughtfully: "Even if we find it, what should we do next?"

"Well, so we first need to find a piece of thread, and then find a way to become a private salt dealer."

"With this identity, the rest will be easier."

Zhao Lie suddenly realized: "I see, what did you find when you looked through the information just now?"

Xie Xian picked up the information: "The distance between the north and the south is too far, so it's probably pointless to find a private relationship with the county."

"Even if the mastermind behind Liu Xun is related to the salt policy, it is impossible for him to have such a wide range of influence, not to mention that the north is not a major salt-producing area."

"I've already looked at all the members in Fenghua Building, and there aren't many useful things."

"So we have to stay here for a while, let our people pay more attention to it, and also check it carefully outside!"

"Try to find the private salt dealers!"
