Reborn and Married to Uncle, Husband and Wife Teamed Up to Abuse Scum

Chapter 395 Mu De’an can’t come to power

The officials of the yamen asked people to hide out under the pretext of Tang Gang. Xin An and Tang Mo, who came to eavesdrop in the name of Tang Gang, were sitting in the aisle on the side of the yamen. The layout there was exquisite, and they could see some of the things in the lobby and hear clearly. No matter what people say, I have to say that Tang Gang's name is still very useful.

Tang Mo was always puzzled and whispered: "Since Huaijiang is under the control of the emperor, why don't you just ask these merchants to pay the money, and then do this?"

Xin An lowered his voice, "Because the princes have grown up and the emperor is old. Merchants always value profits."

It is not easy for a businessman. The emperor's mountain looks extremely majestic, but no one dares to go all the way to the dark side of the emperor or courtiers. They always bet in many places. I think the emperor also knew it, so he did not give a direct order and prepared to spend money. Some twists and turns.

"If you watch carefully today, you might as well come up with the charter as soon as possible."

The two of them just said these two words and then stopped and waited quietly. After a while, Tang Mo felt a chill on the back of his neck. When he looked back, he almost screamed out of fright. Tang Gang, who didn't know when he appeared, was looking sinister behind him. Staring at him with pity, Xin An looked back and was startled.

Tang Gang glared at the two of them angrily. The two shameless people dared to act behind his back. Fortunately, he was aware of everything and found something wrong before he found them.

"How do you know where I am?"

Tang Mo was sure that he didn't disturb him when he went out.

"I knew you were lying on your ass."

"Okay, I know your nose is good."

Tang Mo told him to be silent and pointed outside the wall so as not to disturb the people outside.

Tang Gang glared at him and began to wait silently.

Mu De'an waited for only two sticks of incense. The moment before he ran out of patience, various salt merchants arrived one after another.

"I'm sorry for keeping Master Mu waiting. Yesterday, the water rose and almost drowned the salt. I was late."

"Master Mu, please calm down. There are hundreds of thousands of kilograms of salt piled on the dock. If it gets wet, the damage will be huge. I will hurry up and wait until the matter is dealt with."

Mu De'an sneered, "The water is rising. It only rained a little bit last night. How come the water is rising?"

"My lord, you don't know, but the water is rising upstream."

The salt merchants were very calm, "It rained heavily upstream last night, and the water surged violently. I'm going there all night, so I don't dare to neglect it."

"Yes, yes, sir, you must know everything clearly. We don't dare to deceive you."

Without even waiting for the big salt merchant to speak, the small salt merchants blocked Mu De'an's words. His attitude seemed to be that he was being arrogant and did not sympathize with the hardships of the salt merchants at all.

Mu De'an stopped dwelling on this matter and talked about business, "I invite you all to come here today because I have something to discuss with you."

He said that the imperial court is encountering difficulties now and hopes that everyone can donate generously. "You are all people who have benefited from the imperial court. Now the imperial court needs me, so I think you should be very willing to help."

"Boss Yao, why don't you express your stance first?"

Boss Yao is still in the capital and has not come back. Today is the second master of the Yao family. After being called, he raised his hands and said, "I am only here today because of the favor of the imperial court. Lord Mu is right. When the imperial court needs us, it is our duty to do so. Although It has been difficult to do business in the past two years, and the profits are meager, but the Yao family is willing to squeeze out ten thousand taels of silver to help. "

"Boss Yao is righteous."

Boss Huang immediately expressed his position, "Our Huang family has been having a hard time in the past two years, and we are not as strong as the Yao family. We are willing to raise five thousand taels of silver to express our feelings." "Our Mu family is also willing to squeeze out five thousand taels. "

"Our Han family can only squeeze out three thousand taels. Please don't dislike it. It's really not rich."

Everyone rushed to express their willingness to donate money, saying thank you to the court, but the amount became smaller and smaller. In the end, some even gave a thousand taels, and they had to go back and **** their wives' jewelry to raise the money.

Mu De'an's face was livid, and the people who followed his lead also looked stunned. All the donated money could not make up one hundred thousand taels, and the gap between one million taels was too far.

Master Yao handed over his hand and said, "Master Mu, when will you need this money? I'll raise it as soon as possible so that you don't delay your errand."

Mu De'an sneered again and again, "Okay, everything is fine."

"Boss Xin, you haven't spoken yet, what should I say?"

He thought that Xin Kuan was Tang Gang's in-law, and he would speak more for the sake of Tang Gang's face. Xin Kuan stepped forward and handed over his hand, "The common people have just made a detailed calculation. We can raise about twelve thousand taels with all our efforts."

"As you know, Lord Weiyuan is the in-laws of the common people. Whenever there are conditions like this, the common people have to give him a face. It's really... ugh."

All the salt merchants were very satisfied after hearing this. They were afraid that Xin Kuan would stab them in the back just to curry favor with his in-laws. If that happened, they would have to guard against him in the future.

The corner of Tang Gang's mouth behind the wall twitched slightly, and he couldn't help but think of the food he had eaten at Xin's house in the past few days. They were cunning. These salt merchants were too cunning. Fortunately, he didn't rush forward and ask for money. Otherwise, How do you get off stage?

Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!

Mu De'an really couldn't stand it. Things were completely different from what he thought. How dare these salt merchants?

"Who doesn't know that you salt merchants in Huaijiang are extremely rich? You all wear brocades and splendid clothes, but you can only afford this little money?"

Boss Huang raised his arm, and the brocade sleeves were exposed with frayed edges. "You don't know, we salt merchants in Huaijiang only have a name and a glamorous appearance."

"The grassroots people must make the decision for the grassroots people and others. Salt smuggling is rampant. Those people open salt mines privately or go to the northwest to dry salt secretly. They also get sea salt and disrupt the market. The price is half cheaper than the salt in our hands. People are the province. All the money is used to buy private salt, and I can hardly continue to do business. "

"Whose warehouse is now full of salt? The salt on the dock is piled up like a mountain. We all suffered heavy losses."

"Boss Xin is right. As long as our wallets are looser, how can we not do our best for the imperial court? We will be proud of our faces if we contribute to the imperial court. It is a matter of honoring our ancestors. How can we not be willing?"

"Yes, please make the decision for us, sir."

"Please sir"

As soon as Boss Huang's words came out, many small salt merchants had red circles in their eyes. They raised their hands to wipe away their tears while revealing clothes that were either sanded or patched underneath. They really agreed with what they just said, but they were just bright on the outside.

"You wait."

Mu De'an pointed at everyone with trembling hands, and the officials from the Yamen also spoke, "Sir Mu, the Huaijiang salt merchants have had a hard time in the past two years. Please take a look at the arrest and trafficking of illegal salt."

This was because he didn't want the money to come out and wanted him to work. Mu De'an took a step back and said, "Wait."

He was speechless, and Tang Gang and Tang Mo behind the wall didn't look good either. Today, they finally got to know the salt merchants. They had strong backgrounds and similar sympathies. Ordinary officials really didn't care about them. way.

Xin'an looked indifferent. She knew very well that these salt merchants were not doing their best, and Mu De'an was not a drink at all.
