Chapter 26 City Chaos
Today, the city of Suzhou is full of unease, dark clouds cover the sun, like a poisonous snake lurking in the middle of the night, waiting for the prey to relax its vigilance, it will open its mouth and wrap it in its belly!

Jia’s Salt Shop shipped in three large carts of private salt early in the morning, and the shopkeeper personally escorted the shipment. Before leaving, he gave the shop manager thousands of instructions, saying that from today onwards, the price of salt in the shop will increase by two more. become!
The manager of the salt shop stomped his feet anxiously after hearing this: "You can't do it! The price of salt in Suzhou is already higher than that of other states and counties. Can it be sold if it continues to rise?"

The head shopkeeper of the Jia family patted the shoulder of the head of the salt shop twice, and lamented: "There is no other way, if the price of salt doesn't go up, our Jia's shop will be ruined!"

"But this." The head of the salt shop felt that it was still inappropriate, and wanted to retaliate!

"Who do you see is willing to eat boiled vegetables every day? I think you have been in this salt shop for a long time, and you really eat salty radishes!" The shopkeeper has been disturbed by Jia's mess these days. Chaos, seeing him push back three times and four times, he spoke harshly and taught him a lesson.

When Wang Yan left, his face was full of anger, and the manager of the salt shop spread his hands and touched his nose.

As the hours approached, there were gradually more people on the streets of Suzhou City. When they saw the price of salt copied from the wooden sign in the salt shop, they said angrily, "Is it selling salt or gold today?"

A bucket of seven renminbi of salt is probably for the saints to eat.

"Bah! Your Jia family's business is black-hearted." A white-headed old woman holding a vegetable basket outside the salt shop, saw the words on the salt plate, put her hands on her hips, and sprayed saliva on the ground outside the salt shop.

The boy in the shop who was cleaning the salt trough heard what the old woman said, threw down the rag in his hand angrily, rolled up his sleeves and said aggressively: "I said, you old woman, if you can't afford salt, you can boil it with water. Get out of here and stay away." Shout!"

After the voice fell, he waved his fist at the crowd outside.

The common people outside the gate looked at this posture, who would dare to say a word, the price of salt was so expensive that they had to buy it, who would let the people regard food as their heaven, and salt as their first priority?

Although there is nothing wrong with the salt shop today, there are already complaints.

Dry firewood will always burn when it encounters a raging fire, but how prosperous the fire can burn depends on the fireworker.

Since there are conflicts, there will always be times when they break up, and how many days they can survive depends on the ability of the Jia family.

In Lanyue Pavilion, Lianyi is pinching a piece of Yuan Shandai to draw eyebrows for his young lady carefully.

"Miss, the Jia family has put salt." Luo Ning pushed the door in with a bowl of fermented lotus root balls.

"Really?"

Standing up with a "bass", Lianyi pinched her eyebrows and wiped a black streak on her young lady's charming face.

Feeling something was wrong, Lu Ziyu leaned over to look at the glass mirror standing on the table, and saw a black mark on his face, so he hurriedly wiped it off with his hands, but the more he wiped it, the dirtier it became, and finally he just covered his face and murmured Xiaozui said coquettishly: "It's over, it's over, your young lady won't be able to marry~"

"Pfft..." Lianyi and Luo Ning couldn't help laughing out loud when they saw this. My young lady always cherishes her appearance, and she usually doesn't go out for three to five days when she has acne on her face. Buddy, I don't know how many blocks my heart will be broken!
Lianyi pursed her lips and smiled, put down her eyebrows and fetched clean water to wash off the black marks on the young lady's face, and reapplied her makeup.

Lu Ziyu stretched out his hand and picked up a piece of emerald hibiscus hairpin from the dressing table, raised his head in front of the mirror and made a few strokes and inserted it in his hair. His vermilion lips seemed to be very satisfied with the makeup: "Tell the eldest son to wait three days before applying it." Don't be impatient with salt, or all previous efforts will be wasted!"

With a smile on her face, Luo Ning leaned back and backed away. Although she didn't know what kind of medicine her lady sold in the gourd, after all, she had been with her for so long, so she knew that it must not be a good medicine for saving lives.

I don't know why the Jia family provoked the young lady, and they ended up like this, not to mention Luo Ning and Lianyi, who often served by Lu Ziyu's side, even Jia Cen, who is lying on the bed now, doesn't know how he offended him This aunt!
The blame can only be blamed on this fate, who let the Jia family sell private salt secretly, and who let the Ninth Prince come to Suzhou to investigate the case of Yanyin?If the matter of Yan Yin can be settled by the Lu family, the Ninth Prince will return to Beijing to report to the saint, and it will be easy for him to return to the capital of the Duke of Lu.

One after the other, they are all in the bureau she has set up, the so-called strategizing is nothing more than that.

The next day in Suzhou City, many beggars sat in piles at the gate of Jia's mansion and outside the shop, knocking on the bowls and chopsticks, and shouting in unison: "The Jia family is so kind, they earn black money, and there is no money in the shop." , transported here to sell smuggled salt, seven cents a bucket of salt, scared the old god to death, I said he earned money from the common people, he said that the blood of the common people is sweet to drink!"

Everyone on the street who heard the song was filled with anger.

"This Jia's family actually sells illegal salt? And it's so expensive?" Peasant women in common clothes stood on the street in twos and threes, gossiping.

"In this city of Suzhou, Jia's shop is the most wicked!" The slightly fatter woman frowned, covered her mouth with her hand and whispered a few words.

"Let's go, let's stop him at Jia's salt shop and eat this smuggled salt, but he will be caught and sent to prison."

The people gathered together and went outside the Jia's salt shop to ask for an explanation.

The head of the salt shop heard that the salt in his shop was illegal salt, he was so frightened that his legs went limp and he shuddered several times, and then he heard from the boy that the common people came to the door and hurriedly closed the shop I asked the waiter in the store to report a letter to Jia Erye.

A few days ago, Jia Cen heard that many shopkeepers in the shop took the cash from the shop and ran away. He was so angry that he couldn't afford it. He finally recovered from his illness. Compiled a little song, there are still many people making troubles outside the salt shop, they were so angry that they sprayed a mouthful of blood, collapsed on the bed and sobbed: "God is going to kill my Jia family!"

Jia's house was already "lively" and couldn't get over it. Lu Ziyu was lying drunk in a small boat on the Lanyue Pavilion Lake, holding a wine glass around his waist with both hands, pouring the peach blossoms that came from Mucangzhai that day. The brewing is sent to the lips without stopping.

Her cheeks were bright red, her slender eyes were mixed with a little mist, and they were moist. I don't know if it was because of the strong wind blowing on the lake, or because of something in her heart?
At night, candles flickered in Jia Zhen's room, the wife of the governor of Suzhou.

"Pa" the man's generous palm fell on the woman's face without any mercy.

Jia Zhen was beaten to the ground, the pearls and hairpins on her head were scattered all over the floor, the corners of her mouth were bloodshot, she looked in a mess, how could she look like Mrs. Governor?

"Bitch, I shouldn't have married you in the first place. All of your Jia family are evil spirits." Today, when Li Wei heard the government servant report about the Jia family's salt shop, he was so angry that he was so angry that the superiors clearly confessed to these people. The salt can't move first, he, Jia Cen, is so determined to do such a head-scratching thing, isn't it clear that he is also pushing Li Wei into the pit of fire?

Glancing at Jia Zhen, who was lying on the ground and weeping, she stepped forward and kicked again angrily: "Just like your short-lived brother, it's a disaster!"

After saying that, he walked away, leaving only Jia Zhen crying bitterly.

Jia Zhen's heart was filled with grief, her elder brother was seriously ill now, and her husband showed no mercy for her, and she was about to bump her head to death on the carved mahogany bedside, when she heard a chilling male voice in her room: "You Dead? He has three wives and four concubines and can live freely? Is this what you want?"

Looking for the reputation, I saw the man who was speaking was slender, wearing the clothes of a servant in the governor's mansion, leaning lazily on the side of the bed with his arms folded, Jia Zhen couldn't see his face clearly, she could only look at the man with a serious look on his face. smile.
