Chapter 2987

The motorcade entered Qingzhou City. Bai Shan didn't transport the official salt to the assassin's residence, but lived in the post station. Their car occupied the space of the post station, but it wasn't enough. County magistrate Dong had to run to the second floor of the post station to find Bai Shan, "sir, the post station can't be put down."

Bai Shan looked down and said, "take the one that should be given to the assassin's house. Let's go to the assassin's house."

Mingda and Bai Erlang have gone directly to the assassin's house to find the prince. Bai Shan and they need to slow down the delivery of salt. When they arrive, they directly find the assassin Guo.

Guo Jishi also went to see the official salt handover.

Originally, this was a small matter, which was not enough for Guo to appear in person, but this batch of official salt was special. In addition, the prince lived in the residence of the assassin at this time, so he came to see it in person.

Guo Jishi stood by and watched the clerk open the salt bag to check the quality. After recording a superior, he weighed it and asked people to carry it into the warehouse.

Because there will be losses during transportation, Bai Shan specially loaded more than ten kilograms of salt, and said that in the end, there were more than nine kilograms of salt left. The servants returned it to the people in Beihai County in cloth bags.

The Yamen of Beihai County looked at Bai Shan. Bai Shan nodded slightly and said to them, "take it back and give it to Mr. Cui for accounting."

The Yamen should go down.

Guo pricked his eyebrows slightly, smiled with Bai Shan and said, "Bai county magistrate has strict rules."

Bai Shan respectfully said, "when it comes to salt tax, officials dare not ignore it."

Guo then looked at the officers in the court and knocked and said, "I heard the words of Bai county magistrate. We should not neglect the salt tax. In the future, we should not stare at it in person, but also have clear accounts and should not be fooled."

The officers quickly responded.

When they put the official salt into storage, Guo asked Bai Shan, "I heard that you brought a lot of official salt this time?"

"Yes," Bai Shan said, "Beihai county is poor. It needs to build roads, water conservancy and land, so it needs a lot of money. The governor also knows that Beihai county has nothing to do except salt, so the lower official can only make up for it."

Believe it or not, Guo Jishi nodded and reminded, "the magistrate of Shouguang county has arrived. Does he also live in the post station?"

Bai Shan bowed his head and said with a smile, "I haven't had time to visit other colleagues."

That's why he likes to live in the post station. Doesn't Bai Shan have the money to buy a house in Qingzhou City?

It's just that it's more convenient to live in a post station.

He went to see the prince first. The prince was busy, so he didn't have time to see him. He happily went back to the post station and carried a pot of wine on the way.

Zhou man stares at him when he sees the wine.

Bai Shan immediately said, "it's not for me, but for other county officials."

In addition to Lu county magistrate, sun county magistrate of BoChang has a residence in Qingzhou City, but perhaps considering that other colleagues live in the post station and have better information, sun county magistrate does not live in his own yard, but also crowded into the post station.

This is convenient for Bai Shan.

Bai Shan asked someone to bring out a bag of official salt for them to taste.

The Yamen officer dug a plate of official salt with a plate and brought it up and put it in the middle of the table. The six people looked at the plate of white salt on the table together.

Sun county magistrate rubbed with his thumb and index finger. The particles were very uniform. Depending on the size of the particles, they could be arranged in the middle. He asked, "this is the salt dried by the salt drying method?"

Bai Shan nodded and asked, "the busy farming is coming. It's time to work hard. Don't you take the opportunity to buy some official salt?"

Several county magistrates looked at each other and asked, "can you supply so much salt in Beihai county? I remember that in the past, the output of your Beihai county was only enough for this county and Qiancheng County of Linzi county? "

Bai Shan said: "the salt field has expanded. Although it's a little nervous, I can squeeze it out if you want me to squeeze."

The other five county magistrates looked at him suspiciously, hesitated and asked, "are they of such quality?"

Bai Shan said: "I can't guarantee that it will be the same, but I can guarantee that it will be qualified. That is, the quality of inferior salt is also higher than before."

BoChang county magistrate pondered, "how much is the price?"

Bai Shan smiled and said, "the price is the same as before."

Then someone looked at the county magistrate of Qiancheng and said, "it's wrong. In the past, you still needed to burn fire and consume firewood to make salt, but now it's directly dried out."

Bai Shan said with a serious face: "now we don't need to consume firewood, but the manpower is also higher. Moreover, we have to reclaim salt fields and dig ditches, which consumes a lot of materials and occupies a lot of land..."

"In fact, the cost is about the same."

At that time, Guo Jishi only took Lu county magistrate to Beihai county. Although other county magistrates had heard that the salt field in Beihai county was not boiling salt, but drying salt, they didn't know how to operate. Therefore, Bai Shan said that although they had doubts, they couldn't find evidence.

Bai Shan reminded: "you buy salt from other places at the same price. You have to transport it yourself. We are from Qingzhou. The journey is short and the cost is not lower?"

"No," Shouguang sun county magistrate said, "Shouguang's purchase of salt from Qizhou is not only closer, but also better."

Bai shanlue thought it was true that the coastal area of Beihai county was too far from Shouguang county.

Bai Shan looked tangled. After a long silence, he clenched his teeth and said, "OK, then I'll be cheaper."

Everyone sat up straight and asked him, "how much is it cheaper?"

Bai Shan said, "I'll give you two Wen less for a fight."

Magistrate sun leaned back, "magistrate Bai, you are too stingy."

The other county magistrate also took a break and said, "yes, yes, it's only two Wen for a fight."

Bai Shan said, "now the assassin's office doesn't allow me to reduce the price of salt. What I lack now is what you earn."

"That's too little. It's a long way from Shouguang to Beihai county."

Bai Shan said, "a little makes a lot. Who's the county yamen who didn't pull the official salt with a car? How many fights has it been?"

Other county officials insisted, "no, too few."

Bai Shan asked, "how much do you say?"

Five county magistrate, you look at me, I look at you. Finally, the most cheeky BoChang county magistrate said, "a bucket is ten words less!"

Bai Shan: "... What about your robbery? That won't work. I'll give you three Wen at most. "

Magistrate Sun: "ten Wen is not much. Magistrate Bai, if you think about it, you can only provide official salt for two counties. Now you can provide six counties. How much more do you earn? You have to give us soup when you eat meat, don't you?"

"You can't just watch me make money, you can't see me spend money," Bai Shan said. "I spent so much manpower and land resources to build the salt field, so I can't go back to buy food? Can you have less food then? "

"Alas, grain is different from salt. Salt is official salt, but grain should be bought with grain merchants."

"Yes, yes."

"So you adults also understand me. Ten Wen less in a bucket is the blood of the long-term workers of the salt farm."

"That's all right. How about everyone take a step back and lose seven words in a fight?"

Bai Shan: "Wuwen!"

We spent a long time grinding for the two Wen money. Finally, it was Sun county magistrate who took a step back. Bai Shan didn't look like a son of an aristocratic family at all when he negotiated the price. It's just two Wen money. You need so much ink?
