The romantic exploration

Chapter 181 No. 77 Nantang Lane!

The salt gang has a long history. The people take food as the sky, and the food is accompanied by salt. Since ancient times, salt has been in the hands of officials because of its importance, and these monopoly industries that have always been operated by officials are extremely expensive. Therefore, people gradually began to risk selling private salt for huge profits.

And the formation of the salt gang gradually emerged in this way. Most of the composition of the salt gang came from grass and mud legs, but gradually formed a force. When the official family reacted, they found that the salt gang had become powerful, and it was very difficult to eliminate and catch them. Later, the salt gang gradually began to open up. Officials and businessmen colluded with this line, and then from then on, there was a white, black and black existence outside the salt iron official camp!

According to Shen Nantong's description, the Yan Gang's current handle in the south of the Yangtze River is called Lao Dao. The rumored means are extremely ruthless, and even the officials of the whole Jiangnan Road dare not take the initiative to provoke them. But whether the facts are exaggerated or not, of course, it is impossible for people like Shen Nantong to really explore the authenticity of this kind of thing, so Shen Nantong just told Song Yi everything he knew.

Shen Nantong, the person who is talking about the salt gang in Yangzhou, knows it, and has seen it several times from afar, but he doesn't know much about it. All he knows is that the person in charge of the salt gang in Yangzhou is Yutou Zhang, known as the 'eight-armed octopus', which means a lot of means.

Yutou Zhang is tough-looking, but his mind is extremely smart and tactful enough, so he has been in charge of the affairs of the salt gang in Yangzhou for more than ten years, so if Song Yi has to deal with the salt gang in the south of the Yangtze River, Yutou Zhang is undoubtedly the first person Song Yi must contact...

"I mean, the shipbuilding workshop can also be selected in Lin'an Prefecture, but since you are now in Yangzhou, it will be more convenient to start from here, because if you start from Lin'an Prefecture, it will be more strange and difficult. If you can deal with Yutou Zhang, the problem in Lin'an Prefecture will probably not be too big. I The operation will also be much smoother, what do you think? Shen Nantong half squinted and asked with a smile.

"Do you have any weaknesses in the fish head?" Song Yi asked.

"Greedy, lustful and good wine, it should be said that wine, sex, wealth and energy are omnipotent... If you want to use money to get through his line, I advise you not to think so. The people of the Salt Gang have seen a lot of storms and have a great appetite. If you use money to dredge it at the beginning, I'm afraid it will be a bottomless hole in the future... As for women's sex, Yutou Zhang is also very picky. He has to take the bite of a good woman. He doesn't like the little yellow flower girl and doesn't like the women in the brothel, so it is difficult to start from here. So I have to find another way!" Shen Nantong analyzed it seriously.

"Hehe... So, Yutou Zhang seems to have shortcomings all over his body, but he prefers to make people feel like they can't find the shortcomings? Song Yi asked with a wry smile.

"Well, otherwise I won't feel tricky on my side, and I have to remind you that dealing with the salt gang is a matter of rolling with a knife head, and because I can't see the light, I can't expect much support from the government in the end..." Shen Nantong reminded.

"It seems that it's really difficult to do. If every stew of the salt gang is so difficult to deal with, no wonder the government will be helpless with these people!" Song Yi frowned slightly and said tangledly.

"So please ask my nephew about this matter. If my nephew can't do anything, I will continue to think that there is no choice but to ask Kuang Lugong to go to the palace to ask for an order, but in fact, to be honest... On the side of the south of the Yangtze River, sometimes the will come down will lose its power..." Shen Nantong said with eight-character beard and squinting mung bean-like eyes, as if he was worried, but Song Yi really wanted to laugh when he looked at him worried.

"Then I'll think about it again. Uncle Lao came here specially. I should have visited him, but I've been too busy recently, and I can't find time... I will definitely visit you another day to apologize. Song Yi began to say polite words, which also meant that the first exchange between the two was coming to an end.

"The virtuous nephew doesn't have to be polite. I thought your trip to Beijing would delay some days, but I didn't expect that my virtuous nephew was busy with getting married and other big things. I didn't bring any congratulatory gifts this time. It's really my uncle's negligence, so I'm looking forward to the next meeting. My uncle must prepare a small gift to apologize!" Shen Nantong also said politely, his eyes narrowed into a line!

"Hehe... Uncle is welcome!"

"You're welcome! Haha..."

The fact of politeness is embarrassing, but it is indispensable. After the end of the politeness, the two broke up in the Qingqiu teahouse. Shen Nantong got on a luxurious and exquisite carriage and gradually drove away, while Song Yi walked to the street.

Zhan Peng was busy with the affairs of the game hall, while Fu Yao was left in the house by Song Yi. He was worried that Hao Anying would have accomplices to stay in Yangzhou City, so Song Yi could only frown in the crowd and think about how to deal with Yutou Zhang.

To be honest, Song Yi understands that Shen Nantong's loss of dealing with the salt gang to himself must also be his own little calculation. It may also be to test Song Yi's ability, or it may be to deliberately let himself wear off his sharpness first. However, no matter what calculation Shen Nantong is, Song Yi knows that he is There is no reason to shirk.

He took over the heavy responsibility of Wang Kuanglu and received a lot of help from the Wang family. Therefore, finishing the work of this shipbuilding workshop is also regarded as Song Yi repaying the Wang family's affection. Therefore, Song Yi thought that he still had to finish this matter this time. After finishing this matter, he could really resign like the Wang family, and then be down-to-earth. Be a free man...

Although it was so difficult that even Shen Nantong, a big man in Jiangnan, needed to shirk the shirking. It was so difficult that Song Yi did not know how to do it, but at the thought of getting complete freedom, Song Yi suddenly was full of fighting spirit, and then he suddenly stopped in the bustling sea of people and changed his eyes firmly. Walk in one direction towards Nantang Alley...

Although he didn't know what to do, he thought that he should at least see the fish head first. Although Yutou Zhang deals with Shuiyun, there is a word fish in his name, but in fact, Yutou Zhang himself is not only not really watery, but also a northerner who doesn't like water very much. It is only because he came to the south of the Yangtze River since he was a child and adapted to the climate of the south of the Yangtze River, so Yutou Zhang took root in Yangzhou.

Because I don't like water, Yutou Zhang's mansion is at No. 77 Nantang Lane. It is said that it is No. 77, but in fact it is not because his house is located at No. 77, but because he occupies all the sites from No. 1 to No. 77 in Nantang Lane, which are his family property...

Therefore, Yangzhou people all know that Yutou Zhang lives at No. 77 Nantang Lane.
