Chapter 567

Except for a few people in Liangshan who left the Loyalty Hall indignantly, the others all received the imperial wine one after another. Just after receiving the imperial wine, everyone's eyes turned to Su Taiwei who was in the field.

Taiwei Su looked at the figures of Wu Song and Lu Zhishen who had gone far away, and remained silent.

He knew that some people were willing to surrender to the court, but he didn't feel that everyone in Liangshan would surrender or be recruited by the court. He didn't care about those who didn't want to be recruited. Su Taiwei glanced at everyone and said : "Now we are all members of the imperial court, and we will protect the Song Dynasty together."

At the moment, many people showed firm eyes, and most of them were surrendered generals from the imperial court.

Wu Song and Lu Zhi left angrily, and Sun Erniang chased after them. Before they had left the Loyalty Hall, there was loud music playing in the Loyalty Hall.

Sun Erniang stopped Wu Songdao, "Brother Wu, Brother Wu, what's the matter with you? Stop!"

Wu Song in front walked away with his head sullen and didn't want to turn back, but when he heard Erniang Sun's words, he froze suddenly. Erniang Sun was kind to Wu Song after all. She also gave him an outfit and gave him directions.

Wu Song turned to look at Sun Erniang, his face was ugly, but when he saw Sun Erniang holding the wine bowl, he was quite annoyed, "I don't want to drink today's wine."

Sun Erniang held the wine bowl and persuaded, "How do you say that, this is imperial wine, it tastes very good!"

Lu Zhishen next to him punched Tingzi's wooden pillar and said, "Today, I feel aggrieved by drinking this wine. Even if it is Buddha's wine, it is not uncommon for the family to drink it."

Wu Song seemed to let out a sigh of relief, and said, "If I drink this wine, I have to be loyal to the government, but those people... how can I drink it?"

Sun Erniang held the wine bowl and said, "Brother Wu Er, you are talking too lowly. Now it's not the government, but the imperial court."

Lu Zhishen punched the wooden pillar again, the wooden pillar trembled, and the ashes fell from the top of the wooden pillar and beam. Then he snorted and said loudly, "Imperial court, you can see it! It's not just being manipulated by the government."

Lu Zhi snorted coldly and left, leaving behind Erniang Sun who was holding a wine bowl with an embarrassed expression.

On Sanhuang Island, Zeng Yunfeng was studying the topographic map, when Li Ying walked in and said, "Brother, Liangshan has accepted the call, and the army is ready to leave."

"What are they doing now?"

"According to the information, they are now rectifying the soldiers and horses on Liangshan, packing up the grain, fodder, gold and silver utensils, and preparing to move them away. They can dismantle them, they have dismantled them, and they are ready to take away everything that can be taken away."

Zeng Yunfeng turned his head and said, "Let them take them away. Why keep these things? It's useless at all. I only want the mountain. As long as the mountain is not removed, other things are up to them."

"By the way, how is your contact with Fang La from Jiangnan? How is Fang La's business in Jiangnan doing now?"

Li Ying raised his head and said, "Fang La didn't know that we were originally from Liangshan, but thought we were rich businessmen from the north who were making deals without telling the court."

Zeng Yunfeng put down the pen in his hand and said, "The Jianghuai area is also extremely important. Now that the imperial court controls the salt industry, Fangla in the south of the Yangtze River can't bear it."

"Now that we control the salt field, Fang La has no choice but to bow to us." Li Ying stroked his beard.

"There are two words in this war, one is people and the other is food, but there is another word that is often overlooked by people, that is salt, without salt, often the body has no strength, so, in whose hands is this salt put? , whose army will have combat effectiveness."

"The Song army in the Qingtang area has not recovered. Now the largest salt field is in the Jianghuai area. As long as Song Ting controls the Jianghuai area, his tax revenue will continue to flow."

"We also want to mix sand from the middle, and share one or two from the middle. These wealthy businessmen have been eating for so many years, and they are fat and oily, but they are still greedy and do harm to the village. Now we mix it in, and they don't want it. Dare to say anything, but is it easy for us to offend these local rich businessmen?" Li Ying said.

Zeng Yunfeng raised his eyes and glanced at Li Ying, "Let them try it out, just in time for us to raise the banner of justice for the heavens, and we need a few heads to worship the banner."

"In the future, we will occupy the Liangshan Water Park and control the Jeju waterway. We will tightly strangle the Grand Canal from south to north. He will have to pay as much salt tax as we ask him to pay." Zeng Yunfeng said coldly.

The salt in the Song Dynasty was official salt, but this private salt was repeatedly banned, because the demand for salt in many places was strong, but many places still couldn’t afford it, but the salt fields that were far away from those places had double the local salt Three times or even five times the price, but those salt merchants frequently drive up prices.

When Zeng Yunfeng was an official in the Jianghuai area, he killed many of these salt merchants, ransacked their families and wiped out their families, and exiled countless people, but there are still an endless stream of latecomers.

He knows what these salt merchants have done most. Seventy to eighty percent of what these salt merchants sell is not official salt. into his pocket.

What's more, in the local area, it is even more levying and extorting, bullying the village, and killing countless people. The long-term workers in the salt farms have a miserable life and a worrisome fate.

Three days later.Li Ying came to Zeng Yunfeng excitedly and said, "Brother, Liangshan Song Jiang and others have all withdrawn from Liangshanpo."

With excitement on Zeng Yunfeng's face, he said, "Okay, now that those people who occupy the magpie's nest have left, let's go straight back to Liangshanbo and raise the banner of justice for the sky again."

Li was a little worried and asked, "Will Song Jiang be instigated by the court to turn around and attack us!"

Zeng Yunfeng snorted coldly and said, "He really wants to, but I have all the mountains, rivers and rivers in my hands. With the few people in his hands, it's okay for him to go up the mountain and act as a spy. If he wants to attack Liangshan, it's just a dream. Unless he, Song Jiang, has the ability to make all the big army students swim over."

Zeng Yunfeng brought his more than 3000 sailors back to Liangshan in a mighty manner. Now the Liangshan cottage has been stripped away, only the remaining parts that cannot be dismantled, and more than half of the wood in the Liangshan cottage has been demolished.

Zeng Yunfeng and the others have a long way to go. Fortunately, there is one thing that is relatively complete, and that is the Hall of Loyalty. Basically, the chairs and tables, including the plaque of the Hall of Loyalty, have not been removed, including the flagpole with the big flag. there.

Zeng Yunfeng and many other leaders including Ruan Xiaoer and Ruan Xiaoqi returned to the Hall of Loyalty, Zeng Yunfeng glanced at the plaque on the Hall of Loyalty and said, "Come here, take down this plaque for me."

Immediately, several people went up and took down the plaque of Loyalty Hall and replaced it with the plaque of Juyi Hall brought back by Zeng Yunfeng.

On the flagpole outside, the apricot-yellow flag that stands in the way of the sky is hung again, but the current big flag has changed its shape, and it is no longer what it used to be.
