When I went back, it probably took more time because of the salt. It took almost three months to go back and forth.
They will be delayed for another month, and the day lilies will be cold when they return.
Not to mention private salt, the official salt in Yancheng was out of stock.
Deputy Liu Qianhu was stumped.
He pondered for a long time after getting off work, unable to make up his mind, and asked everyone, "What are your ideas?"
Zhang Baihu took a step forward and said, "Sir, I suggest you ask General Lu to handle this."
Several hundred households nodded together, "Yes, yes."
A member of the Hundred Households advised Deputy Liu Qianhu, "Sir, I finally understand. This Mr. Lu is like a rat with firecrackers tied to his body. He is about to fly. We can't even stop him. It's better not to offend him."
It’s better to take the opportunity to win over him.”
"Yep."
Zhang Baihu nodded.
He said: "When Mr. Lu came out, he had just had a conflict with the admiral. It was the time for us to win over him."
Deputy Liu Qianhu was a little unwilling.
Deep down, he felt that Lu Bai deserved to die because Lu Bai was one of the suspects who killed his son.
"Hey, everyone is here."
When Deputy Liu Qianhu was undecided, Lu Bai walked in.
As a member of the Jin Yiwei, he is staying in the inn today.
Several hundred households turned around and greeted him, "Mr. Lu Qi."
I don't know, I thought the official positions of the general banner were larger than those of hundreds of households.
Deputy Liu Qianhu also said hello, "Mr. Lu Qi, I have to thank you on behalf of the people of Yancheng today."
He asked the people below to tell the inn to prepare a table of good wine and food for them.
Deputy Liu Qianhu asked Lu Bai to sit next to him, "Thanks to Mr. Lu, we finally accomplished a big thing today. Oh, by the way, Mr. Lu, how do you know the prefect and Superintendent Su?"
"Oh, I helped Yongle City solve a major case and got their recommendation letter." Lu Bai said casually, as if solving the case was a matter of effort.
Deputy Liu Qianhu and the others did not dare to think so, "What case?"
"The case of serial decapitation."
Lu Bai took a sip of tea and took a bite of a piece of fruit.
He looked up and saw that the Jin Yiwei sitting there had stopped talking and looked at him with admiration.
They know about the case.
The murderer of the serial case committed the crime more than three months ago. Until they came, he was still at large. There was no clue and there was no progress in the case.
Thinking that Lu Bai solved this case in just three days, Deputy Liu Qianhu had to admit that Lu Bai was a talent, an absolute talent.
Some Jinyi guards may be talented in kung fu, but when it comes to solving crimes, they can only do one trick at a time.
Some people are talented at solving crimes, but when it comes to kung fu, they are terrible at it.
Lu Bai is different from them.
Lu Bai is the only genius Yanagi Qianhu has seen in all his years who is both talented in martial arts and very smart in solving crimes.
Even the son he was proud of was not as good as Lu Bai.
Given time, such talents will surely soar to the sky and become a dragon or a phoenix among people.
Deputy Yanagi Chihu decided that such talents must be attracted.
"good!"
Deputy Liu Qianhu clapped his hands and applauded, "We have solved the cases that could not be solved in Yongle City. Mr. Lu, you have greatly enhanced the prestige of our Yancheng Jinyiwei."
He reassured Lu Bai that he would report to Lord Qianhu when he got back and record Lu Bai's achievements in his credit book.
This feeling is good.
Lu Bai thanked him.
Deputy Liu Qianhu praised Lu Bai a few more times, then changed the subject to talk about private salt, "Mr. Lu Qi, let's go together tomorrow to visit Mr. Ma from the Salt Supervision Department."
Lu Bai raised his eyebrows, "Master Ma?"
Deputy Qianhu Liu explained, "Master Ma has a way of doing private salt business."
Lu Bai understood.
The private salt business of Yancheng Jinyiwei is all about Mr. Ma.
Unfortunately, it's too late now.
Lu Bai chuckled, "No need, I have already settled the private salt business. You adults don't need to pay attention to me. Just go about your business."
All of you are astonished.
Deputy Liu Qianhu couldn't believe it, "We're talking about it?"
Lu Bai nodded, "Well, when we discussed the matter with Supervisor Su this afternoon, we settled the matter by the way."
He told Deputy Liu Qianhu and several Baihu not to worry about him, "This is not good. Let's all do our own thing, which will save a lot of trouble."
Baihu and others stopped talking.
Deputy Liu Qianhu suddenly felt regretful.
If he had known this earlier, he would have told Master Ma this morning to Lu Bai.
Fortunately, they haven't settled anything yet. Lu Bai has already negotiated everything. It was Superintendent Su who personally ordered it, and Mr. Ma has to kowtow to get it done.
Not like them.
When they went to see Mr. Ma, he accepted the gift without saying anything and spoke like his nose was not his nose and his eyes were not his eyes. He looked like a dog looking down on others.
Not only that, but they were paid one month later.
If this were in Yancheng, they would have to find a corner and beat Mr. Ma up when he came home.
But now Yongle City.
People under the eaves have to bow their heads.
After regretting it, Deputy Liu Qianhu and several Baihu looked at each other.
They all came up with the same idea - to ask Lu Bai to help them get the secret salt back, so that they didn't have to wait a month.
It's just that it's a bit difficult to say this, because they were the ones who hesitated during the day and didn't mention the secret.
So, the task was handed over to the shameless Zhang Baihu.
Zhang Baihu smiled shyly, "Mr. Lu, look at this - we are all Yancheng Jinyiwei. As for the salt, you have negotiated an agreement. If we cannot negotiate, we all have to spend it here, and no one will leave."
Not open it is not."
Lu Bai said: "We can set off directly."
Hundreds of households were happy.
Deputy Liu Qianhu said: "Brother Lu, we can't return empty-handed."
Lu Bai nodded, "That's true."
If they don't leave, Lu Bai can't leave. He has to follow Jin Yiwei.
Otherwise, it is dereliction of duty.
"What should we do?" Lu Bai frowned.
Zhang Baihu came over and said, "It's easy, Mr. Lu, you can use your connections to help us get it done, so we can go back together. If you can get it done the day after tomorrow, we can start home the day after tomorrow."
"
He asked Lu Bai, "Does Mr. Lu not want to go home?"
"this--"
Lu Bai pretended to be thoughtful.
After waiting for a while, he reluctantly nodded under the expectant eyes of everyone, "Okay, then I'll give it a try."
Zhang Baihu couldn't help but cheer, "That's great."
Deputy Liu Qianhu also frowned.
However, Lu Bai put the ugly words first, "I'm not sure how much private favor I can get."
Lieutenant Liu Qianhu suddenly felt something in his heart. He asked Lu Bai, "How much did you get?"
Lu Bai told them a number.
This number is half of the amount he actually reported to the Supervisory Committee.
"Ouch!"
Even so, when hearing this number, Deputy Liu Qianhu and others couldn't help but sigh - Lu Bai is going to make a big fortune on this trip.
I estimate that after I return, I can buy a nice manor in the upper city.
Deputy Liu Qianhu and the others were not greedy, "We can just ask for the same amount as Mr. Lu."
It was just as Lu Bai expected.
This is the largest amount they can swallow.
After all, the biggest salt dealer in Yancheng now is Lu Bai.
"Sure." Lu Bai agreed, but he said something first, "The price may be different from mine. This is a friendly price given by Supervisor Su. You--"
Deputy Liu Qianhu nodded, "We understand that as long as it does not exceed official salt, everything is easy to talk about."
Lu Bai nodded.
The half of what he just mentioned should be sold to Deputy Yanagi and the others.
As for the price——
Eighty percent of official salt.
He earns 30%.
Lu Bai felt very happy. Before he even arrived in Yancheng, he had already made a fortune.
