Guan Zhong, a great statesman and reformer in the Spring and Autumn Period, ruled the feudal lords and rectified the world for Duke Huan of Qi. The policy of boiling salt.) created the earliest salt and iron monopoly system in Chinese history. According to Guan Zhong's rough calculation, the state of Qi would receive 60 million yuan a year.

Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, under the suggestion of "financialist" Sang Hongyang, in order to strengthen the centralization, recapture important economic undertakings such as salt and iron from the rich businessmen and tyrants, and reverse the financial difficulties of the country, he also implemented salt and iron official camps and alcohol. monopoly. Since then, the system of salt and iron franchise has been running through the entire Chinese feudal dynasty!

During the Tang Dynasty, more than 90% of the mineral veins in the country were in the hands of the imperial court, and less than 10% of the mineral veins were in the hands of important ministers and noble families, such as the eldest grandson Wuji!

As a thousand-year-old clan, the Wang family also has two ore veins in their hands. There are three sources of iron or iron ore for the folk smithy. The first is to find local officials to buy them; Return to the furnace for recasting; third, go and buy it from a family with iron ore!

In the Tongfu Inn, Dugu Feiying pondered for a moment, then ordered: "Since the iron ore in this ironware shop comes from the Wang family, then the Wang family must know Kang Changan's identity. In this way, you can contact the Wang family and show your identity. , please cooperate with one or two, we must find out the identity of this Kang Changan as soon as possible!"

"Yes! General!"

Zhang Dafu bowed to take orders. After hesitating for a moment, he clasped his fists again and said, "General, Wang Yu, the head of the Wang family, has returned to Taiyuan! He came back around noon!"

"Oh? Wang Yu?"

Dugu Feiying's eyes lit up, he pondered for a moment, a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, he smiled and said:

"The Wang family has been operating in Taiyuan for many years, and is a real snake, and Wang Yu, if I remember correctly, Wang Renbiao, Wang Yu's son, and the Marquis of Yongan have a good relationship. Our trip is mainly to protect the Yanhuang Academy and his party. Safety.

So, to a certain extent, we and Wang Yu should be on the same road! Get ready and follow me to the Wang family later. If we can get the help of the Wang family, it will be very convenient for us to do business in Taiyuan City! "

"Yes! General!"

Zhang Dafu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that it would be best for Dugu Feiying to go out in person, otherwise he might not be able to do it!

Today, although the imperial power is strong and the family is weak, the prestige of the thousand-year-old family is still deeply rooted in its influence on the people. In their hearts, the family is still extremely powerful. It will take time to change this perception!

"Brothers scattered to the city, can you send back any useful news?"

Before Zhang Dafu turned to leave, Dugu Feiying asked again.

Zhang Dafu clasped his fists and said, "Returning to General, the brothers asked the city gate generals and beggars and traders at the main intersections in the city, and found that among the unfamiliar faces in Taiyuan City in the past two days, in addition to this surnamed Zhu Xie, there are three other groups. They are Turks, and I have already sent people to stare at them!"

"Okay! I'll deal with these people after I go to the Wang family!"

Hearing this, Lonely Flying Eagle nodded, and then he asked again, "What's going on at Chuji Ironware Shop~?"

"Bang bang bang!"

Zhang Dafu was about to answer, but at this moment, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

"It's me! Zhao Erhu!"

Immediately, a man's voice came from outside the door, and the man's tone was very urgent.

"Go open the door!"

Dugu Feiying looked at Zhang Dafu and said.

With a "squeak", the door was pushed open from the outside, and a strong and powerful man walked in quickly from the outside, while Zhang Dafu hurriedly closed the door. The big man walked quickly to Dugu Feiying, clasped his fists and said, "General, it's not good! Zhu Hongsheng is gone!"

"What? Zhu Hongsheng is gone?"

Hearing this, Dugu Feiying couldn't calm down immediately. He stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Erhu's shoulder and asked, "Why did a good person disappear? Didn't you lead someone to stare at him?"

Seeing Dugu Feiying's anger, Zhao Erhu couldn't help shrinking his neck and said with a bitter face: "General, brothers have been staring outside the iron shop, but after staring for more than an hour, they still haven't seen him. When Zhu Hongsheng came out, I saw that there were few people on the street at noon, so I directly sneaked into the ironware shop, but found that the ironware shop was empty. The last commander didn't know how this group of people disappeared for no reason! "

"you……!"

Dugu Feiying pointed angrily at Zhao Erhu's nose, almost swearing, Zhang Dafu on the side hurriedly said: "General, in my opinion, this ironware shop is definitely not simple, maybe it is the Turkic spies in Taiyuan City. There must be more than one exit at the front door, do you want me to bring someone to chase~?"

Dugu Feiying slammed his fist on the table next to him, and he said angrily, "This Zhu Hongsheng and the owner of Chuji Ironware Shop must be Turk spies. Now it seems that they have discovered us, so we don't need to. Cover up, Zhang Dafu, you take twenty brothers to track down Zhu Hongsheng and Kang Changan along the iron shop, and be sure to catch them before it gets dark!"

This time, there were only 30 advance troops led by Dugu Feiying, and this time they sent 20 people directly. If so, the manpower is far from enough. After all, how big is Taiyuan City? If you want to find two people in this city, it is obviously not enough to rely on this manpower!

"The last general takes orders!"

Although, knowing that the task is arduous and difficult to complete, Zhang Dafu still leads the order with a fist, and then he immediately turns to leave

go.

Dugu Feiying looked at Zhao Erhu again, and said solemnly: "Zhao Erhu, take the rest of your brothers to search the Chuji Blacksmith Shop immediately, and be sure to quickly find out how Zhu Hongsheng and others escaped, whether it was through the secret passage, the back door or the window. After finding out their escape route, quickly pass the news to Zhang Dafu! In addition, by the way, find out if there are account books in the ironware shop!"

Zhao Erhu hurriedly clasped his fists and said, "Yes! General! This subordinate will not be disgraced!"

"I'm going to Wang's house, hurry up and search the iron shop!"

Dugu Feiying waved his hand, then picked up the saber hanging on the wall, and left first.

The sudden escape of Zhu Hongsheng and Kang Changan undoubtedly confirmed that there is indeed a problem with their identities. It seems that there is no need to trace their identities, and they can be arrested directly. But Dugu Feiying still intends to go to the Wang family's ancestral house, but his purpose has changed. This time, he mainly went to seek Wang Yu's help to help him quickly find Zhu Hongsheng and Zhang Kangnian in Taiyuan City!

"Yes! General!"

Zhao Erhu followed closely and left the guest room, closing the door by the way, and then quickly went downstairs and left the inn.

The county seat of Lantian County.

It was noon, but the county town was very lively. Compared with the previous two days, many people from other county towns poured into Lantian County today, including businessmen, gentry, scholars, and of course, more ordinary people. !

Today, these people come to Lantian County for a common purpose, and that is to see with their own eyes the fundraising conference that has been promoted for several days! Even if you are not eligible to participate, it is always good to watch the excitement outside the Dragon Gate Inn!

The building scale of the Dragon Gate Inn is quite large, and there are no guest rooms on the entire first floor, all of which are halls. At this time, the hall on the first floor has been temporarily filled with seats. Today, the Dragon Gate Inn is not open to the public, although it is almost noon. But the heavy glazed door of the Dragon Gate Inn was still locked.

As for the guests who stayed at the inn a few days ago, Lin Wenyuan naturally would not expel them. Anyway, he just had to ensure that no tourists who came to the inn today would affect the fundraising conference!

"Yo~! Look! Master Cao of Chang'an City is here!"

"Tsk tsk! I heard that Master Cao's son was also admitted to Yanhuang Academy this time. I don't know if it's true or not!"

"Master Cao is so lucky!"

"Who said no?"

"Look! Isn't that the young master of Jiangnan Yanyu Villa?"

"Wow! It turned out to be Master Zheng! I heard that the Fenglei team of the Zheng family defeated the Xiliang Sweaty BMW team yesterday, and tied for the first place in the Tang League standings with King Jiangxia's Tigers! I didn't expect to see Master Zheng here! "

"Five days from now will be the match between Fenglei and the Tigers. Some will watch it then!"

"Haha! Who said no?"

"Huh? Isn't that the shopkeeper of Chang'an City's Qiaojiang Pavilion?"

"What? Qiaojiang Pavilion? I heard that the owner behind the Qiaojiang Pavilion is the one in the palace!"

"Shh~! Be quiet, your mother-in-law!"

"Hu~! Look! Why is the yamen of the county government here?"

"So many yamen, what is this for?"

It's still a while before the fundraising conference starts, but there are already many "melon-eating people" on the streets outside the Dragon Gate Inn. Everyone is talking about those businessmen who come to the fundraising conference. When they meet businessmen they are familiar with and interested in, They will also talk about some recent "news" about this person. I have to say that the people of the Tang Dynasty who lacked entertainment methods were very excited to eat melons!

At this moment, the two teams of yamen, led by a man, ran towards this side quickly. At a glance, good guy, there are nearly a hundred yamen! The person in the lead was the county magistrate Sun Zhaotou of Lantian County. Seeing this, he quickly made way for the officials and the masses. Sun Zhaotou took the opportunity to bring people to the "small square" in front of the Longmen Inn, and divided them at the door. Standing upright for two columns.

They are here to maintain law and order and ensure that the fundraising conference goes smoothly! But if Li Zexuan was present, he would probably complain to Sun Zhaotou: "Are you here with someone to maintain the law and order, or are you here to welcome the guests?"

In fact, their posture is too much like the two rows of welcome clerks standing outside the door of some modern high-end hotels!
