811 Smuggled Salt

The old lady Chen also cried, "Girl, please, have pity on my old lady. My son must be wronged, he will not talk nonsense!"

Not talking nonsense means that what Chen Junsheng said at the time was true!

"You guys get up first!" Gu Xiaowan finally helped Mrs. Chen and Gao Yuemei up and put them on the bed.

Gu Xiaowan also sat down beside her, and casually touched the quilt with her hands.

The quilt was as thin as a sheet, and besides the hay everywhere on the bed and the thin quilt, there was nothing else!

Very poor.

"Aunt Chen, Sister Yuemei, tell me first, how did Chen Junsheng get arrested?"

"Let me tell you! I heard that I happened to see the Jiang family's carriage riding a horse in the busy city that day, and everyone was condemning it, but when I heard that it was a carriage that was approaching, no one dared to say a word. But brother Junsheng is a master who is not afraid of power, and others dare not say it, he dares to say it!" Here, he is still selling illicit salt, he did it, is he afraid that others will say it!"

"How do you know that the Jiang family sells illicit salt? Selling illicit salt, if the government finds out, it is a capital offense! The Jiang family is powerful and powerful, why would they take such a big risk to sell illicit salt?" Qin Yezhi opened his mouth quietly.

Gu Xiaowan also nodded, very curious!

Gao Yuemei's face turned red all of a sudden, she looked at Mrs. Chen, and then said shyly, "I saw it with my own eyes and Brother Junsheng!"

It turned out that Gao Yuemei and Chen Junsheng had been childhood sweethearts since they were children. When they grew up, they naturally matched each other and came together.

If nothing happens, Gao Yuemei and Chen Junsheng will also be together, just like what people say now, hold hands and talk about love or something.

One day, I happened to walk to the door of a warehouse. It was quite quiet, but suddenly there was the sound of hooves and wheels from nowhere.

The two realized that someone was coming, and they were afraid of what others would say this evening, so they hid aside as soon as possible. I wanted to wait until the people left.

However, this wait is almost half the night.

There were many carriages and many people, wearing uniform black clothes and lighting torches, and there was already a moon, which made the night look like day.

The warehouse is located far away in the suburbs, and it is surrounded by trees, and no one ever passes by on weekdays.

Chen Junsheng and Gao Yuemei are in love, naturally they go wherever it is quiet.

When Gao Yuemei spoke, her face was almost down to her chest, and her face was as red as dripping blood.

But Gu Xiaowan understood and motioned her to continue.

Two people came down from the carriage headed by him, one was Jiang Huaian, the richest man in Liujia Town, and the other was also clothed in brocade.

After the two chatted for a while, they walked to the door of the warehouse. Mr. Jiang took a key from his body and opened the door of the warehouse a crack. Only he and the other person entered.

Because only a small slit was opened, it was enough for the two of them to enter, so Gao Yuemei and the others couldn't see what was in the warehouse!

After a while, they came out again, talking and laughing.

Then the door of the warehouse opened, and Gao Yuemei and the others saw that there were a lot of sackcloth bags in the warehouse, neatly stacked in the warehouse, I don't know what they were!

After Master Jiang and the man finished chatting, he instructed the person next to him, and then the carriage carrying Master Jiang left.

The people in black suits are well-organized, and all of them are extremely powerful. The sack looks quite heavy, but everyone has at least three sacks on their shoulders, and what's more, some people have three sacks on their shoulders. The bag, with a bag in hand, is really powerful.

When Qin Yezhi heard this, he thought of the people on the rivers and lakes.

These people are so powerful, they must be armed with martial arts, otherwise, they would not have such great strength.

Over there, Gao Yuemei continued to speak.

There are a lot of goods in the warehouse, but there are also many people, and there is a lot of resistance. After a while, they all finished moving, loaded dozens of carriages, and took advantage of the night to leave.

Gao Yuemei nestled under the tree for a long time, not daring to move.

These people are taking advantage of the night to pull the goods, which can only explain one truth. The goods are not clean, and they must not dare to let others know!

After those people left, Gao Yuemei was nervous about pulling Chen Junsheng away. But Chen Junsheng didn't leave. When he came to the place where they were pulling the goods, he wanted to find out what was in the sack!

Sure enough, I found a handful of white and shiny things. After Chen Junsheng tasted it, he immediately concluded that it was salt.

It seems that the dozens of carriages they pulled just now were all salt.

The imperial court has taken away all the right to manage salt, but Jiang Huainan is still secretly selling salt with others. Isn't this selling illicit salt?

Salt can only be circulated on official roads now. Ordinary people can't hoard a lot of salt except to buy some salt to eat, but this Jianghuainan has taken so much salt all at once. Know that he is still in the salt business.

After returning, Chen Junsheng said that he was going to report Jiang Huainan to the government, but he was arrested.

Gao Yuemei stopped her.

First, they have no evidence, and second, what kind of character Jiang Huainan is, how can they be moved.

After much deliberation, in order not to worry his family, Chen Junsheng could only give up the idea.

But later on, Chen Junsheng still occasionally went to that warehouse, only during the day, but he didn't find anything.

After listening to Gao Yuemei's words, Gu Xiaowan sighed and understood what she meant.
