Chapter 295
"This this……"

Shopkeeper Wang froze for a moment, almost crying.

Qin Lu naturally knew that shopkeeper Wang would not take them to patrol the salt, but she said this on purpose, in order to stimulate him and make him tell the truth.

"Shopkeeper Wang, don't be modest. Our adults have just arrived in Yongcheng, and we are not familiar with the place. If we have your help, we will be ready for everything." Qin Lu's words were like a knife, directly on the head of Shopkeeper Wang. .

Shopkeeper Wang's forehead was covered with sweat, and it took a long time before he wiped off the sweat in a panic, "My lord, please forgive me, our biggest salt merchant in Yongcheng clearly doesn't want to do anything now, you, you let me I'm in it, it's not..."

At this point, even Zhang Deshan, who had the simplest mind, could understand what he meant, let alone Qin Lu and Qin Tieniu.

"Do you dare to shirk?" Zhang Deshan was impatient, and stepped forward to grab the collar of shopkeeper Wang, "What is the name of the biggest salt merchant? I really want to know, who gave him the courage to not even the officials of the capital?" In eyes?"

This was discussed before coming here. If shopkeeper Wang disagreed, then Zhang Deshan would threaten and lure him. After all, he wanted to get something from him, and he must not return without success.

Compared with the largest salt merchant, there are countless salt merchants like Shopkeeper Wang in Yongcheng. Qin Lu believes that as long as Zhang Deshan threatens a little, he will definitely turn against him.

"Say it?" Zhang Deshan raised his voice, and with his tall stature, shopkeeper Wang trembled in fright.

When Zhang Deshan released Shopkeeper Wang, he slumped down on the ground, "My lord, you don't always make things difficult for me, do you?"

"Then tell me the secret of the biggest salt merchant."

Zhang Deshan looked at Shopkeeper Wang with a half-smile.

The moment his eyes met, Shopkeeper Wang gave up. He leaned against the wall and got up, sighed and tremblingly said: "Hey, I'll tell you, you can't betray me."

"I'm an official in the capital." Zhang Deshan patted his chest, and was about to swear to Shopkeeper Wang.

Seeing this, shopkeeper Wang accepted it as well, "Okay, since the official is like this, then I'm not shabby."

Shopkeeper Wang bravely put forward conditions with Zhang Deshan.

He promised to say all this, Zhang Deshan naturally wouldn't ignore it, and nodded repeatedly, "Success, as long as what you said is true, then the official will definitely protect you."

Zhang Deshan made a strong promise, and shopkeeper Wang also opened his mouth.

"Actually, the largest salt merchant in Yongcheng is not only the largest in Yongcheng, but also the largest salt merchant in Beijing. Eighty percent of all the salt merchants buy from him, and the rest belong to another person. You Say us salt merchants, salt dealers, can we not provide for others?"

Shopkeeper Wang looked at Zhang Deshan helplessly, then continued with a sigh: "I heard that they have a very good relationship with the government..."

"It was not bad in the first few years, leading us to make a fortune, but these years, they don't seem to be thinking about it, it seems that they only think about ways to make money. They used to think about the people, but now they only think about themselves..."

Speaking of this, shopkeeper Wang's face is full of sadness, "Of course we will earn more, but..."

"I just feel that something is wrong."

At this point, Zhang Deshan frowned and looked at Qin Tieniu.

Qin Tieniu nodded, and he opened his mouth to ask, "Do the common people have no complaints?"

"Of course I did. I believe you must have seen it, but there is nothing you can do about it..." Shopkeeper Wang lowered his eyes and drank tea to relieve his inner anxiety after finishing speaking.

After saying this, Qin Lu fell into deep thought, and there was always a part of her heart that was ready to move because of the words of shopkeeper Wang.

"My lord, I've said everything I need to say, you see?" Shopkeeper Wang looked at Zhang Deshan tentatively.

With just one glance at Zhang Deshan, he waved his hands and stood up, "Don't worry, I won't let you patrol salt with me, but you must be my internal response."

Zhang Deshan told shopkeeper Wang everything that had been discussed in advance.

After finishing speaking, he deliberately smiled at Shopkeeper Wang.

It's just that the smile was uglier than crying, so shopkeeper Wang followed the skinny smile with a nonchalant smile, "Master, little one..."

"If you refuse, then I will tell the biggest salt merchant that you are mine." Zhang Deshan's ability to threaten people comes from Qin Lu, so it can certainly bluff people.

No, shopkeeper Wang was speechless when he heard Zhang Deshan's words, and quickly got up to salute, "I understand."

"Okay, then we won't bother."

The matter was completed fairly smoothly, Zhang Deshan knew that there was no point in staying longer, so he left quickly.

When the group of them left Shopkeeper Wang's yard, Zhang Deshan looked at Qin Tieniu with a playful smile, "Master, do I have a reward? How is my performance?"

"That's right, Zhang Deshan, this king really underestimated you before." Qin Tieniu looked at Zhang Deshan helplessly, and then patted him on the shoulder, "You go to the inn first, and I will go shopping with my wife."

"Come on."

Zhang Deshan still knew that he couldn't make light bulbs. As soon as Qin Tieniu finished speaking, he ran away.

In the blink of an eye, Qin Lu could no longer see Zhang Deshan. She smiled and came to Qin Tieniu, "Tie Niu, this biggest salt merchant is not easy to deal with. What are you going to do?"

"Turn around first, find out who he is."

"it is good."

Qin Lu fully supported Qin Tieniu. Before coming here, she greeted the chamber of commerce in the capital, and the president also introduced some merchants in Yongcheng to her.

The president can say that if something happens in Yongcheng, you can look for those people.

Qin Lu thought about it, it's too early to look for it now, she still has to wait until the right time, they are her cards.

The two of them walked in the streets and alleys of Yongcheng, feeling very comfortable.

It's just that they are not just hanging out, they all have a purpose.

Qin Tieniu was looking at the vendors, and Qin Lu was looking at the common people.

The two unconsciously made a clear division of labor.

After wandering around for half an hour, they had already arrived at the inn. The two did not go back to their room, but chose to drink tea at the tea house opposite the inn.

In the past, the number of people in the capital would gradually decrease at this time, but it was the complete opposite in Yongcheng. The more people there were at this time, the more people would be.

Looking at the people coming and going on the street, Qin Lu frowned, and she looked at Qin Tieniu with embarrassment on her face, "Tie Niu, you said that this city of Yong is watching singing and dancing, but why did the salt merchants become theirs?" The biggest problem in life."

Qin Lu was really puzzled, and Qin Tieniu was even more so.

"That's right, according to Shadow's investigation, these salt merchants each have their own characteristics, some have problems with weight, some have problems with price, and some have problems with quality..."

After all, there are all kinds of problems, and their business styles are also different, which can be said to have their own characteristics.

In a word, no one does business in a down-to-earth manner.
