Salt Supervision Department Su Supervision Department's surname is Su, and his official position is Supervision Department.
He was very busy.
When Lu Bai was welcomed in, Supervisor Su asked impatiently: "What's the matter with you?"
When Lu Bai took out the letter from the prefect, Superintendent Su glanced at it.
His tone was much gentler, and he even sounded happy, "It turns out that Mr. Lu is the one who solved the serial beheading case. I'm sorry, I'm disrespectful."
Superintendent Su bowed his hands and asked his subordinates to watch tea.
Not to mention the reputation of the prefect, but also the ability to solve the serial beheading case, Supervisor Su would have to make friends with Lu Bai.
Just in case I need anything in the future.
Lu Bai was polite and exchanged a few words before explaining his purpose.
Supervisor Su was not ambiguous at all.
He told Lu Bai to follow them immediately, "It's not easy for you to travel all the way from Yancheng to Yongle City. I will make arrangements immediately and let you join a team the day after tomorrow to transport the salt away."
Lu Bai thanked him with his hands.
He asked several of his Jinyi guards to inform hundreds of households and let them prepare in advance.
After they all left, Lu Bai took out a key from his sleeve and said, "Sir, I often do some business, and I brought some local products when I came from Yancheng."
He told Su Supervisor the address of the inn and asked him to pick it up on his own.
The Su Supervisory Department confiscated it.
He frowned and looked at Lu Bai, wondering what he meant by this move.
Lu Bai smiled gracefully, "My caravan came from Yancheng, so we can't go back empty-handed, so I want to transport some salt -"
Whoosh!
Supervisor Su suddenly stood up, "Mr. Lu Qi, selling illicit salt will lead to beheading, and your illicit salt sales actually ended up on the head of our Salt Supervision Department. You don't take our Salt Supervision Department seriously!"
He rolled his sleeves and said, "For the sake of the magistrate, I can pretend that I didn't hear anything. Mr. Lu, please."
Lu Bai sat in his seat and did not move.
He took a sip of tea gracefully.
This Supervisor Su is just showing off.
If he is as righteous as he said, where did the private salt come from?
"General Lu, if I ask someone to invite you out, we will all lose face." Supervisor Su said fiercely when Lu Bai didn't move.
Lu Bai put down the teacup and pushed the key over, "Don't worry, Supervisor Su, I'm sincerely doing business with you. I'm neither testing you nor deliberately defrauding you. Jin Yiwei wants to catch you, I just want to do business."
."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lu!"
Supervisor Su called to the people outside, "Come here, send General Lu Qi out!"
Several policemen came in.
Lu Bai stood up and said, "Oh, that's right."
He took out a letter from his arms and said, "This is a letter that the city lord asked me to bring to you."
Lu Bai threw it out casually.
The thin envelope moved slowly in the air, as if someone was holding it.
Several police officers who were about to escort Lu Bai out were stunned.
This hand——
"Get down!"
Supervisor Su waved his hand and told the police to exit.
He stretched out his hand and slowly took the envelope. He looked at Lu Bai with deep fear before looking down at the letter.
Although he is a civil servant, he still knows something about spiritual practice.
Lu Bai is obviously a practitioner.
Both a practitioner and a letter from the Lord of the City——
Supervisor Su raised his head and looked away from the envelope, "Haha, it turns out he is the Lord of the City. Mr. Lu told you earlier."
Lu Bai nodded, "Yes, it's my fault. Seeing Supervisor Su being too speculative, he suddenly forgot about this important matter."
"Look, I almost missed something important." Supervisor Su asked Lu Bai to sit down again.
He ordered his men, "Serve tea, serve good tea, and make a pot of Mingqian tea from my collection."
He sat down and said to Lu Bai: "My Mingqian tea was specially brought from the south. It is mellow, fragrant and has a long lasting flavor. Brother Lu and I hit it off right away, so we drank this good tea instead of wine and talked about our daily life together.
"
Lu Bai raised his eyebrows, "Oh, then I'm going to have a taste."
After the tea was served, Supervisor Su asked his men to step aside, and then he got to the point, "I wonder how much Mr. Lu wants, so I can let my men prepare it."
Lu Bai said a number.
"So many?" Supervisor Su was surprised.
Lu Bai smiled bitterly, "Mr. Su, you also know that the entire Yancheng has to pay a salt tax. After paying this, the remaining salt is for them to eat."
"Oh, right."
Supervisor Su slapped his forehead, he just remembered.
He pondered for a moment and agreed to Lu Bai's request.
Not only that, Su Supervisor also sold it to Lu Bai at a price lower than 50% of the official salt, "Just treat it as a meeting gift from me to Brother Lu."
Lu Bai thanked him happily.
It's 50% lower than the price of official salt, so it's a big gift.
In this regard, Lu Bai was not stingy.
He continued to push the key over, "Mr. Su, I hunted two monsters on the road that have been practicing for more than ninety years, and got some medicinal materials from them. Although they are not very expensive, they are rare. Please accept it, Brother Su."
"Nine, ninety years of Taoism——"
Supervisor Su was so happy that he grinned to the back of his head.
Salt is not important to him.
The most indispensable thing for the dignitaries of Yongle City is salt.
But medicinal materials - especially medicinal materials obtained from monsters with ninety years of Taoism, equivalent to a first-level master, are marketable and priceless.
"well."
Supervisor Su couldn't help but applaud.
Next year the Salt Supervision Department will be under the jurisdiction of Xichang.
He didn't know how to give a gift to his father-in-law in Xichang, but Lu Bai's gift solved his urgent need.
My father-in-law is a practitioner and needs medicinal materials.
The precious medicinal materials given to him by Lu Bai were just what they liked.
Supervisor Su was overjoyed, and his conversation with Lu Bai became more and more cordial.
In the evening, he stayed with Lu Bai for a meal, and then reluctantly sent Lu Bai out of the Salt Supervision Department.
As for private salt.
He will arrange it for Lu Bai. Four days later, Lu Bai can directly contact the official named Ma.
He will help Lu Bai get everything done.
"Then thank you, Brother Su." Lu Bai turned around and handed over to Supervisor Su on the steps.
"It should be." Supervisor Su returned the greeting.
Lu Bai turned and left.
There are still many people queuing in front of the Salt Supervision Department.
When they saw Supervisor Su personally sending Lu Bai over, they were filled with envy for a moment - with this relationship, nothing could be accomplished.
The hundreds of households in Yancheng and the Jin Yiwei were astonished.
They wondered when Lu Bai got in touch with Supervisor Su.
I can't understand.
"Let's go."
Lu Bai got on his horse, said hello, and led his men away.
Hundreds of households followed him back in confusion.
Deputy Liu Qianhu had been waiting for them. When he saw them coming back, he asked eagerly: "How is it?"
"The official salt is done." Hundreds of households said in a daze.
Deputy Liu Qianhu was surprised, "Did he really get it done?"
Zhang Baihu said: "Not only did he get it done, Superintendent Su of the Salt Supervision Department even kept him for dinner and personally escorted him out of the Salt Supervision Department's yamen."
"What!"
Deputy Liu Qianhu was even more surprised.
He doesn't even have such a big face.
Zhang Baihu lowered his voice: "Sir, it's not surprising. What we saw today is really real. Mr. Lu can retrieve objects from the air and enter the immortal realm."
It’s not surprising that Supervisor Su took the opportunity to make friends with a master in the Immortal Realm, not to mention that Lu Bai also had a letter of recommendation from the prefect.
Deputy Liu Qianhu was stunned and shocked.
Could it be that the realm is so high that it is really so popular?
Lieutenant Liu Qianhu had an inexplicable desire for the realm for a while.
But think about yourself.
I have worked hard for most of my life to reach the first level. If I want to enter the realm of cultivating immortals, I still have a long way to go.
Thinking of this, Deputy Liu Qianhu became very jealous of Lu Bai.
He actually entered the realm of cultivating immortals when he was less than twenty years old. If this talent was given to him——
He made a fist.
"My lord, my lord?" Zhang Baihu waved his hand in front of Deputy Liu Qianhu.
Deputy Liu Qianhu came to his senses and asked, "What's wrong?"
Zhang Baihu said: "Now that the official salt is in hand, private salt - should we ask General Lu to handle it?"
Entrusting General Lu's flag office to tell Lu Bai about his private salt connections.
Otherwise, they would have to wait at least a month.
