Chapter 164 The crisis facing Wanzhou
Ying Zhexun walked into the center of the square and looked at the red-eyed people, some of whom hadn't eaten salt for several days.
"I, Ying Zhexun, on behalf of the Dayan royal family, assure the people of Wanzhou that this salt case will be dealt with as soon as possible. Let everyone have a safe, affordable salt."
The crowd was silent for a while, and suddenly someone boldly asked, "The salt in the Salt Management Department is poisonous, what's going on?"
"Severe punishment will not be given. Where is Si Cheng, the salt control department?" After Ying Zhexun finished speaking, Si Cheng climbed forward, his official hat crooked, "Yes, the subordinate official is here."
"Take me to see the salt."
In the warehouse of Zhiyan Division, there are as many as ten barrels of salt placed one barrel after another. A steward opened one of the barrels, and saw that the salt grains were rough, yellowish in color, and some were even black. Grab a handful in your hand, moisten it, put it on your nose and smell it, it has a pungent smell, take a sip, it tastes bitter and astringent.
This is poisonous salt that harms people!
"Come here, take down the salt management department, Si Cheng! Move the salt outside!" Ying Zhexun ordered decisively!
"My lord, spare my life, my lord, spare my life!" Si Cheng begged bitterly, his head hit the ground with a bang, and an unknown liquid flowed out from under it.
Five or six officials, large and small, from the Salt Management Department were **** on the square. Behind these people, more than a dozen buckets of salt lined up.
Ying Zhexun raised his hand and pointed, "Si Cheng, I will give you a chance to redeem your sins. Where did this salt come from? Who is supplying you with this salt?"
Si Cheng's right eyelid twitched wildly, how can he protect himself and overcome the difficulties in front of him temporarily, "My lord..."
Before he finished his words, an arrow from the sky, surrounded by a sharp wind, was directly nailed into his chest.
The crowd panicked, the accident was so sudden, Ying Zhexun looked in the direction of the arrow, a hundred steps away was the Liulang Pagoda in Wanzhou, the tower had seven floors. With a wave of his hand, he commanded his subordinates, "Chase!"
Ying Zhexun didn't chase after him, he looked at the dead Si Cheng and a few of his men, and raised his hands.
Several officials were killed on the spot without exception.
Then he pointed to the row of poisonous salt, drew his sword, and the barrel was broken and the salt came out. "These salt will not be sold to the common people. We will find a way to raise new salt as soon as possible."
"Do you have a solution?" A trace of surprise flashed in Ying Zhexun's eyes, and he followed the prestige, and when he saw Zhe Yu, he was stunned.
Like, really too like!
"Who are you…?"
Zhe Yu frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Student Zhe Yu is a new student of Kunming Academy. He was recommended by the academy and entered the Wanzhou government office as a recorder."
"Zoyu, Zheyu?" Ying Zhexun murmured, "Okay, let you try."

In Xiangnanfang, an accident caused all the noble ladies to run away, and Wen Yi was also taken away by the government office.
Wen Xiang heaved a long sigh as he looked at the scene of the empty house.
"Miss Bai, thank you for your help today, and, my lord!" The appearance of that immortal figure gave Wen Xiang hope. only…
"That's my husband." Baicaoshi replied, her husband has a peach blossom physique, and she was also very helpless. "Right now, there is a crisis in Wanzhou City. Before the crisis is resolved, people probably don't want to buy rouge bath beans. I should go back."
"You don't want to know, the source of the supply of my spices?" Wen Xiang almost blurted out.
"Can you say it? Beyond the South China Sea, An Nanguo?" Baicaoshi looked back and asked with a smile.
Wen Xiang was inconceivable, "You...you know everything."
I wrote about the blind spots of knowledge, Kawenka is amazing.
In the past two days, I have almost found a lot of information about salt, which is too difficult.
Why should I embarrass myself.
I’m Chang Tian Wen, why did I compete with Yan?
