Chapter 467 The Salt Gang in Shu Is as Fast as Lightning

When Chang Sun Xin was thinking about what staff to ask for help, a ship docked at the Zhongjiangshui Wharf next to Rongzhou and Yi County in Shu.

"Military supplies, military supplies, get out of the way of other ships, add lanterns and torches to the dock, and move our cargo first."

A group of people on the leading boat shouted in unison.

The ship that was originally going to lower its sails and dock, immediately adjusted its sails and the ship began to deviate from the dock. The people on the same boat signaled to the other ships.

Now it is downstream, the boat returns to the river and needs to be adjusted, otherwise it will be swept away.

The porters and those resting on the dock also stood up, and more torches were lit.

Several ships are docking. The ships at the back of the fleet will continue to go to Luzhou, and a group of ships will stop to unload.

From Luzhou, go to Rongzhou via Wenshui, and then unload the cargo.

The other four places are Bazhou in the east, Kuizhou in the southwest, and Fengzhou and Liangzhou further east.

Fengzhou and Liangzhou are not suitable for transporting things from Shu. It is better to send things from Chang'an, which is closer.

In the latter two places, the person with the exchange coupon can just send the exchange coupon directly, and the money will be recognized locally.

The other five places could only rely on salt merchants from Shu.

In total, it took twelve days, and the horse ran for nine days to Shu.

After receiving the letter, Yang Huanjin and Huang Xianrong spent a day collecting supplies and distributed them to various places that evening.

After two days of sailing along the current, Rongzhou was the first to arrive.

What they want to give is silk and copper coins. The silk and silk are enough to make up the large amount, and the copper coins are not enough to make up for the two silk coins.

The merchants in Yizhou are all at a loss. Are our salt merchants crazy?

One by one, as if urging orders, the goods and money were transported to the dock, and everyone else was pushed aside. The salt merchants shouted for military supplies to occupy the position first.

We loaded up one boat and moved one boat at a time. We were going with the current, and even with the sails on, we were not afraid of hitting other boats on the road.

The things at Heyi Pier were unloaded, and the person in charge called others to come over and help deliver them to Zhechong Mansion in Rongzhou.

At this time, General Li Xuandao of You Xiaowei was still on the road, leading the troops from Fengzhou and Liangzhou in a hurry, but they didn't reach the place.

After the cargo on the ship was unloaded, the urgent report from the imperial court had just been delivered to Rongzhou. It took almost half a day to get from the dock to the Rongzhou capital.

The salt merchants in Shu followed the speed of the urgent report. After the people who urgently reported arrived in Shu, they also took boats and could not escape by land.

Those who reported urgently used small boats, which were slow, while the salt merchants used large boats with oars and sails.

Two hours later, part of the fleet that had just passed through stopped at Luzhou Pier, and the rest turned to Wenshui.

The Zowen River flows against the current, and the river twists and turns, so trackers are needed in some places.

The people in the fleet rowed oars, adjusted the sails, and rushed upstream for a while, waiting to meet the trackers before using the trackers.

It is very dangerous for trackers to pull fibers and light torches at night.

However, speed is not required at this time. To add money, as long as the boat is moving forward.

The Shu salt merchants paid for the manpower and shipping money themselves, and did not touch the money on the exchange coupons given by Li Yi.

One is delivering something to the army and is about to fight. As a salt merchant, he should support him.

The other is that they calculated and used the money in the exchange coupons for transportation.

In the future, I will ask Li Yi for help in Chang'an, and Li Yi will help. However, Li Yi will not pay for the places where money is also needed.

Now that he and others have paid for the extra money, when he goes to Chang'an for business and has no money on hand, Li Yi will naturally help pay for it.

Especially the officials in Chang'an, Li Yi had a good time.

At the Zhechong Prefecture in Rongzhou, Yu Zilong, the captain of Zhechong, was writing a memorial under an oil lamp to be sent to Chang'an to express that there was no problem on his side.

He informed the military households in Zhechong Mansion about the official document he received last night.

The military households went home one after another to prepare, mainly taking food, weapons and armor from the warehouse.

Once Zhechong Mansion sets off, there will be no more baggage. The baggage will be sent to the front after that. You have to bring your own food during this period.

Some wives are wiping tears while steaming rice and frying it, wondering if their husbands will come back alive this time.

The children at home stopped making trouble, and the elderly helped out.

When the husband is sleeping, I don’t know when the order is given, and I have to assemble.

For them, this is their fate. Zhechong Mansion does not need to pay rent, and they can prepare their own light weapons and armor, as well as military rations for the march.

At the end of the Chou period, there was a noise coming from outside Zhechong Mansion in Rongzhou.

The scout ran out and came back after a while, waking up Yu Zilong who had not slept well.

"What's the matter?" Yu Zilong thought he was going to start a fight.

"Our salt merchants sent a large amount of silk and copper coins from Yizhou. They rushed all the way and just arrived at the place." the soldier replied.

"To whom?" Yu Zilong still didn't understand.

"We also have soldiers from the government, two coins per person." The soldiers looked very happy and got two coins for free.

"Who gave it to me?" Yu Zilong felt that he was dreaming. Someone came to give the people in Zhechong Mansion two coins to each person?

"Your Majesty asked Li Yi to send it. Li Yi has a village with a thousand acres of land on the bank of the Bashui River in the east of Chang'an."

The soldier said something that he himself didn't believe, but he couldn't help it, that's what the other party said.

"Get some water and I'll wipe my face." Yu Zilong wanted to wake up.

After simply cleaning up, he went out and met the person in charge sent by the salt merchant, Pan Guanshi, so he called him Pan Guanshi. His surname was Pan and his first name was Guanshi.

"Pan has met Captain Yu." Manager Pan handed over the paperwork.

Someone picked up a lantern nearby, and Yu Zilong opened it to look at it.

It says: Reporting to Captain Yu Zilong Zhe Chong, we, a salt merchant in Shu, received an urgent report. We have to exchange tens of thousands of coupons for silk and copper coins. With your majesty's grace, we can accomplish the affairs of Jin Ziguanglu and Li Yi. All the soldiers of the government who are transferred will Each person is given two coins.

Behind it is a series of seals, handprints and signatures.

Yu Zilong can think of the other person's situation when he sees one. The famous salt merchants in Shu are all listed above.

Individually, they are Shu salt merchants, and together they are Shu salt gangs.

Yu Zilong read it again. There were not many words, so he could probably understand it.

There is something called an exchange coupon, which is a lot of money and can be exchanged for other money.

His Majesty knows about this, and he probably asked him to send it as a gift.

There is a man named Li Yi who is a doctor of Chengjin Ziguanglu. Why is he just a literary official? Does a third-grade literary official have no actual duties?

If you are not sending money but asking for money, you are definitely a liar.

"Li Yi has tens of thousands of dollars? His majesty asked him to pay, and he did it?" Yu Zilong asked Manager Pan.

Manager Pan had gone with him to Chang'an, and he knew something about the situation.

"Yes, 100,000 yuan. There are two state capitals that are far away from us and have been separated. We will take care of the rest." Manager Pan replied.

"He has a thousand acres of land?" Yu Zilong asked again. UU reading www.uukanshu.net

"That's right, right by the Ba River." Manager Pan replied.

"Then he grew gold in his land?" Yu Zilong was a little angry.

"Absolutely. In the winter in Chang'an, you couldn't eat cucumbers anywhere except the royal family before. Now you can eat cold melons. Lijiazhuangzi has them."

Manager Pan understood Yu Zilong's thoughts, but he still told the truth.

Yu Zilong was stunned this time, as if he was thinking about something. After a moment, he whispered: "Toilet water, Dongzhu Li?"

"Captain Yu is very knowledgeable, it's him." Manager Pan smiled, it's good to know, it will facilitate communication.

"Since it's him, he probably has money. Let's keep the money and I will distribute it to my brothers at dawn." Yu Zilong agreed.

Manager Pan shook his head: "No, those who want us will be sent to everyone in person according to the roster."
