Chapter 276

The purpose of the anti smuggling camp was to collect a large number of civilian workers to build dykes for flood prevention. In addition, some water transport projects also needed migrant workers to dig.

Because many of the peasant uprisings in the past dynasties broke out among the people who were in charge of flood control. It was a hidden danger that such a large group of people gathered together. Therefore, the court set up a special river defense camp to supervise these activities and shoulder the task of flood control and emergency rescue at the same time.

Later, with the development of water transportation, the river defense camp was responsible for the safety of the commercial roads along the river, and cleaned up some fierce animals along the way in the wild.

The salt industry in the area of Mingyue city is well developed, which contains huge profits, so that private salt has been banned for many times. The river defense camp also undertakes the anti smuggling work. Over time, it is called the river defense anti smuggling camp.

In a secret room of hefangying yamen, commander sang Qian was respectfully saluting another old man: "my father's move is really brilliant. It's easy to make Wang and Chu's families turn against each other."

Sang Hong gently stroked his chin beard, and was not too happy: "which is so simple, if this can make the two families turn against each other, it will be too underestimated Chu Zhongtian."

"Is it hard for Chu Zhongtian to turn the tables?" Sang Qian said curiously.

"He will definitely come up with a series of corresponding measures, but it doesn't matter," Sang Hong chuckled. "The first thing is to lead the bank, which is just the beginning, and there are a lot of means waiting for him to cut off their most effective Allies first, and then deal with the lonely Chu family."

"Mingyue Gong is very powerful, but he is not being played by his father in applause!" Sang Qian laughed.

Instead of supporting the imperial court, I did not support the imperial court. The trend of the times is beyond human power. "

Sang Qian thought that his father liked to say things about gods and gods. He was very arrogant, but he didn't like to be flattered. He was really too modest.

"By the way, father should pay attention to his health. The" fairy house lean horse "sent by those rich merchants in Mingyue city is really good." Sang Qian frowned as he spoke, a look that men all know.

Sang Hong looked at him faintly: "are you not angry in your heart now? Before, you were not allowed to go to the fairy house to look for flowers and willows. As a result, I turned around and collected their lean horses?"

"I dare not!" Sang Qian quickly bowed his head to make amends, but he did have some thoughts in his heart, "Dad, you are always honest and upright. This time you accept the lean horses of those rich merchants, I am afraid that your reputation will be tainted in the future, and it will easily attract the attack and criticism of the political opponents of the DPRK and China."

"As long as you can fulfill the task assigned by the imperial court, your father will teach you a truth today," Sang Hong said in a deep voice. "If you want to be a clean official, you have to be more treacherous than a corrupt official."

"Only by accepting the gifts from those families will they treat you as their own. It will be much easier to cooperate in the future and avoid unnecessary suspicion." "

" now our primary task is to deal with the Chu family and take their salt and iron wealth back to the imperial court. The rest is secondary. "

Sang Honggong respectfully saluted: "my father taught me a lesson."

In my heart, however, I keep sighing that all the women can receive such righteous words, and the great truth is one through one. There is no one in the world except my father.

"Hold, Chu's uncle Zuan brings people to see you!" At this time, a soldier ran to the door to pass.

"What is he doing here?" Sang Qian frowned. He didn't like that guy subconsciously.

At the thought that such a rascal can marry a fairy like Miss Chu, he has the feeling that a flower is inserted in cow dung. No, it is the feeling that the flower falls into the dung pit.

In particular, he felt even more upset when he thought that he had been cheated several hundred thousand Liang silver from his gambling house last time.

"You are too happy and angry in the form of color, have taught you how many times, still can't change." Sanghong discontented to say, his son Mao Mao impetuous, a bit of my composure did not learn, "to see what Zuan in the end is intended."

"Yes ~" Sang Qian angrily replied, blaming Zuan, and being scolded by his father.

And said that Zuan is waiting in the hall, suddenly saw the background received two waves of anger from sangqian.

Zuan is speechless for a while. This guy hasn't seen him yet, so he complains?

Did he know about me and his fiancee?

But we two in addition to ambiguous, touch a few more, in fact, nothing has been done.

It's a shame to be angry like this.

At the same time, sang Qian finally came out: "grandson, I don't know what I'm doing here today."

This young master yelled him sick for a long time. How can this guy be worthy of the word "childe"?

But his father taught him not to look angry. If he called his name directly, would the hostility be too strong?

In his heart, he was tangled and incomparable, but where to know that Zuan had already known his hostility from another channel.

"We have found a large number of illegal salt to be shipped from the wharf tonight, so we also asked commander sang to send all the people to wipe out those smugglers." Zuan was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, and directly explained his intention."Private salt?" Sangqian was startled. "I don't know where my elder brother got the information. Why didn't we get any information from the river defense camp?"

While talking, he looked at one of his men without any trace. He nodded slightly and retreated quietly.

Because there are so many people in the river defense camp, Zuan and others are not familiar with the people here, so few people can see anything at all.

"The key to the problem is not where the intelligence came from, but to catch those salt smugglers as soon as possible." Of course, Zuan is not stupid enough to give up Qiuhong's tears.

Originally, I wanted to hate him. All the brothels knew the smuggling information, but the river defense camp responsible for anti smuggling didn't receive any news. What's not a bucket of rice?

However, considering that we still have to rely on their efforts, we should hold back the untimely words for the time being and wait for all the dust to settle down.

"It's not that I don't believe you. It's really a matter of great importance. Every time I jump in the air and disturb the real salt smugglers, it will be troublesome to catch them later." Sang moved into a deep voice.

"My information is absolutely reliable. General, just go and arrest people." Zuan said that not only did he trust Qiuhong's tears, but he also went to stay there. He would never be wrong.

"In this case, does the elder brother dare to issue a military order?" Sang Qian also got up and became serious.

Zuan's eyes narrowed and shook his head: "I'm not a member of the army. What kind of military order should I make?"

Although he is quite sure, he doesn't want to put himself at risk.

You know, there's never a lack of accidents in this world.

This guy lures himself to make a military order. Isn't there a ghost?

With a frown on his brow, zu'an fell into deep meditation, and suddenly felt that the trip might not be so smooth.

Sang Qian laughed: "don't mind, elder brother. I just want to be stable. The main reason is that every time the troops are mobilized, it is not a simple matter. I have to report to the higher authorities for approval. If there is a big fight, there will be complaints from both the superior leaders and the lower level soldiers. "

"And ask the superior?" Zuan was stunned, "don't you go and ask for instructions? How long does it take to come back and forth? "

"Don't worry. Someone has just been sent." Sang Qian made a gesture of invitation, "don't panic. Let's have a cup of tea and have a rest."

Zu'an frowned, how could he be in a mood to drink tea? He thought that these guys were so inefficient that it was no wonder that the illegal salt was so rampant.

Next, sang Qian talked to him about all kinds of topics, and Zuan responded.

After a cup of tea, Zuan finally couldn't stand it. He got up and said, "if it's not convenient for the general, I'll take the guards of the Chu family to arrest them."

As the saying goes, changes take place over time, and he has a bad feeling in his heart.

"Don't worry, elder brother. It will be ready soon." Sang Qian's words changed. "Besides, it's our duty to seize the illegal salt. How can we let the Mingyue government do it for you? If the prefect and the Lord of the city know about it, I will be punished for my dereliction of duty."

"I'll wait ten minutes at the most. If I can't, I'll go there and play an outpost." Zuan also knows that the Chu Zhongtian couple sent him to find sang Qian, mostly out of these formality concerns, so as not to be exploited by political opponents afterwards.

But there is no limit to wait. If the illegal salt really runs away, all the previous efforts will be wasted.

"Minutes?" Sangqian didn't quite understand the time unit, but he could guess the meaning of it. "There will be news soon. Don't be impatient."

After waiting for a few minutes, Zuan finally got up and went out.

I don't know if it's a coincidence. Suddenly a soldier came in and said, "I've got the above warrant."

Sang Qian ha ha ha smile: "good, immediately point all troops and horses, start!"

Soon, the soldiers in the school yard of the river defense camp began to gather. When they saw the soldiers in front of them who were dragging and even had irregular armor, zu'an frowned. Were these soldiers or soldiers ruffians.

With such River defense camps, it is no wonder that illegal salt has become more and more rampant in recent years.

Sang Qian's face is not good-looking, hastily explained: "yesterday's practice was too late, today we may still have some not recovered."

As he spoke, he roared under his opponent: "hurry up, what's the system of procrastination?"

It's a pity that no matter how much he roared, the group of soldiers only dealt with it on the surface, but the actual speed did not increase.

It took more than half an hour to assemble.

But fortunately, we set out at last.

Sang Hong silently watched the troops leaving, playing with a pipe in his hand and spitting out a mouthful of smoke. His thin face was bright and dim in the smoke.

A doubt arose in his heart: "why did Zuan find out the information of illegal salt so accurately?"

Zuan took the guards of the Chu family and the soldiers of the river defense camp to the dock.

Worried about being run away by those smugglers, Zuan was so anxious that he drove his horse to the wharf.

In the middle of the journey, a sedan chair suddenly appeared in an alley nearby.Zuan hastened to stop his horse. Although he stopped at the last minute, the sedan bearers were obviously frightened.

Accidentally fell to the ground, the sedan chair on the shoulder also turned to one side.

"Ah ~" came a girl's voice of exclamation.
