"We are an official, and it is my personal responsibility to protect peace under our jurisdiction. We must not allow bullies to be rampant. Private salt must be paid, and murder cases must be investigated. This is my consistent claim..."

Jiang Chun and Fang Yankai felt helpless when they saw Li Xiayi saying these things seriously.

They had seen more than ten bloody corpses and fully understood what Li Xia was doing.

But you can't say, "Li Feiyu, you don't have to tell us these high-sounding people, you acted fakely." You can only sigh.

"Yes, such a violent and unrestrained salt owl bully cannot be tolerated."

"Feiyu did a good job and should eliminate this villain and be at peace. Our county will ask you to check the achievements of private salt for you."

Jiang Chun said casually, thinking that this matter ended...

The case was decided, and the Yan Xiao from Yunlian Prefecture came to Qingfu to commit crimes. Fortunately, the county dealt with it in time and did not allow these thieves from other places to continue to cause trouble.

This is very good, no mistakes.

Although Fang Yankai doesn't like Li Xia's methods, he also thinks that the result of the matter is not bad...

The next moment, the two of them heard Li Xia say again: "It's a pity that the salt lord Wu Tong is still rampant in Yunlian Prefecture, but please ask the county magistrate, don't worry, I will go to Yunlian Prefecture to wipe him out tomorrow."

"No!"

Jiang Chun and Fang Yankai shouted in unison.

"Wu Tong is a military officer from the Song Dynasty, who is in charge of the foreign soldiers of Yunlianzhou. You have no right to deal with him, and the army is named Wuming..."

"If the barbarians in Yunlianzhou are incited to cause chaos, they will be out of control..."

Li Xia glanced at the two of them and said, "Isn't it the county magistrate? The chief clerk has been urging me to suppress the salt owl?"

Jiang Chun hurriedly pulled Li Xia into the public housing, no longer pretended to be an official, and said, "Can Feiyu stop making trouble? This matter is related to the conflict between the two places, and is definitely not a trivial matter."

At this point, he lowered his voice and said, "I tell you that Wu Tong must be behind him. You and I will manage you well, why bother with Yunlianzhou?"

"I won't argue with the county magistrate or chief clerk, just say one thing."

Li Xia took away Jiang Chun's hand that he pulled on him, turned around and walked out, leaving a faint sentence.

"You can't stop the soldiers in my hands."

In the public room, Jiang Chun and Fang Yankai looked at each other, but they didn't know what to say.

Liang Wai, Jiang Chun sighed.

"Let him go, he must have collected Wu Tong's money and silenced the person."

Fang Yankai didn't say anything, and sighed in his heart: "I would have been fine if it was just that..."

No one in Qingfu County can control Li Xia's decision. Without talking about prestige, merit, backing, etc., just saying that he has soldiers and money, it is enough to take power in Qingfu.

With Jiang Chun and Fang Yankai, he said that he would give them face to tell them, not to discuss with them.

After leaving the county government office, Li Xia went to the barracks and ordered Huhu, Xiongshan, Wu Ang and Yu Chun to go to Yunlian with him.

The New Year has just passed, and the number of troops has not yet been fully recruited, and the four hundred-man teams have only more than 220 people.

Wu Tong brought 200 people to Qingfu County Town, and there was almost no advantage in the number of people.

Li Xia did not feel excited when she faced Wuliang Hetai. He knew himself and his enemy, and had a heart and had no intention. He actually felt that this battle was not very interesting.

Of course, he will still do his best. This is the mentality given to him by many years of competition. Lions fight rabbits and use all their strength.

Speaking of which, the entire process of seizing private salt was not difficult for Li Xia, but it was just too cumbersome.

Therefore, he wanted to use Yan Yunyun and Jiang Fan to do his business...

"Alang, we have taken over the salt business of the Yin family; the Wu family's private salt in the county has also been confiscated; Lu Wenyang's widow also promised to sell the remaining salt to us. In the Qingfu area, only our family is still selling salt."

After entering the night, Li Xia came back from the barracks and saw Yan Yunyun and Jiang Fan. Yan Yunyun seemed very excited and kept talking.

"I spent less than 10,000 guan this time and have obtained more than 100,000 guan of salt from Lu and Yin families. Please rest assured that there is no evidence left, we..."

Li Xia suddenly raised his hand and said, "Sold at this price per pound and filter out the sand ash in the salt."

Yan Yunyun was stunned, thinking that if this happens, the salt will not be worth more than 100,000 yuan.

"But we are official salt..."

"I don't care whether it's official salt or private salt." Li Xia said: "In the future, we will sell salt without mixing sand, and a pound of sixty cents."

"Alang, if this is the case, then when this batch of official salt is sold out, you will lose money in the future."

"Then I won't get in the official salt in the future." Li Xia said: "Tomorrow I will kill Wu Tong, Jiang Fan will follow me and surrender all the salt wells I found last time."

"yes."

"After the salt well is confiscated, Yan Yunyun, you go to Yunlianzhou and control them all. After selling the official salt in your hand, we will sell private salt."

"Yes." Yan Yunyun said: "We sell official salt and private salt together... But one thing is, Lu and Yin's families bought salt from the Jingjing Supervisor. If this is the case, they will only offend the salt officer of the Jingjing Supervisor."

Before Li Xia could speak, Han Chengxu had already said: "This is not something you are worried about."

"Daughter understands."

Yan Yunyun lowered his head and felt reluctant to leave. He sifted away the sand in the official salt, which took time and effort and was less profitable a year.

As soon as the thought arose, she heard Li Xia say lightly.

"If I had found a grain of sand in the salt you sold, you know what would happen."

Yan Yunyun was shocked, his hands trembled unconsciously, and hurriedly said, "I will never dare."

She glanced at Li Xia quickly, lowered her head again, feeling a little aggrieved.

If someone else did this, she would say a few words like "Let the people of Qingfu eat salt of conscience" and so on, she would probably feel hypocritical and false and righteous.

Li Xia's expression was calm and handsome, which made her feel that her boss had compassion and felt that she was a little admiration for a while.

"Okay, you can do business well in the future." Han Chengxu said: "For Alang, the people under his rule can live and work in peace and prosperity in the future. This is the top priority, and you must not delay Alang's plan."

"My daughter understands that she must not dare to make fraud."

Han Chengxu nodded.

In his opinion, these are trivial matters. Li Xia is in charge of Qingfu County, and the business within the territory cannot cause great storms. He was worried about Yunlian Prefecture, so he waved to Yan Yunyun and Jiang Fan, turned to Li Xia, and said, "Alang, it is not difficult for Wu Tong to kill, but the difficult thing is how to ensure that we are in Yunlian's salt field after his death."

"It's not just a salt field." Li Xia said: "There is also a five-foot road smuggling trade route. What I want is to control the entire Yunlian."

"That killing Wu Tong is useless, he is just a small inspector..."

The two of them spoke, but Jiang Fan didn't dare to listen too much. She got up and wanted to go out, but saw Yan Yunyun still sitting there.

Jiang Fan winked, as if signaling, “You won’t leave?”

Yan Yunyun ignored him and kept sitting upright.

Jiang Fan glanced at Li Xia and Han Chengxu, and saw that they didn't care much about it, so she went out by herself.

“…”

"Take it slow, the situation in Yunlian is different from that in the provincial capital. The magistrate is just a supervisor and has no real power. The real strength of the local people are local officials of various tribes, which gives us the opportunity to secretly explore the situation."

"Alang's intention is to support our village elders who obey orders?"

"Well, let's kill Wu Tong first and then talk. If you extend your power in, there will always be times to deal with it... Let's do it first, I'll look at the map and determine the ambush point tomorrow."

Han Chengxu was old and couldn't stand up, so he stood up and glanced at Yan Yunyun.

Although they didn't care about her, they wouldn't talk about deeper topics in front of her.

"You have something to do?"

"My daughter still has a few small business matters and wants to ask her father for advice."

"It's late, let's talk tomorrow."

"Daughter helps his father..."

Li Xia sat alone in the public room, picked up his pen and marked it on the map a few times, and the door of the house was pushed open again, but Yan Yunyun walked in.

"What's the matter?"

"Alang." Yan Yunyun stepped forward and whispered: "I see that the house is still on, so I want to come and serve tea for Alang."

"You can come to the county government office later."

"There are all our people..."

Li Xia turned to look at her, and she was already displeased, with a stern look in her eyes.

Yan Yunyun lowered her head, she obviously knew that she had done something wrong.

But she still said softly: "Alang should marry Qiao'er in the future, right? I recognized my adoptive father, and that's her aunt... I was eleven years old and ruined my appearance. I would never dare to have any inappropriate thoughts... But Alang is so lonely now, maybe he needs someone to serve me..."

She wore a colorful feather mask today and dressed up specially, facing Li Xia sideways, showing her graceful figure.

But Li Xia said, "I will not have such a relationship with my subordinates. This is the principle. Don't let me hear this again."

His tone was so stern, Yan Yunyun was a little scared.

But she was a little unwilling to give up, rubbing her legs gently, biting her lip and jokingly saying, "If I knew Alang had this principle at the beginning, I might not..."

"Enough."
