Pampered Poisonous Royal Wife

Wei Qi stepped forward and kicked Zhou Lu. "Tell me honestly, did you spread the rumors?" Seeing Wei Qi, he hurriedly rushed forward, crying as he begged, "Brother-in-law, I know I was wrong. I drank too much at once, so I didn\'t expect the situation to be this serious. If you save me, I won\'t drink anymore in the future."

It\'s done! "

Wei Qi shook him off. At this moment, he even had the urge to kill someone. "You bastard …"

Wu Minzhi stepped forward and said, "Mister Qi, the matter has been resolved. We should think of a way to save him now."

I\'ve already sent the silver taels over, and Sir Li has started moving as well, trying to find a way to make up for the deficit. Now that this matter has cropped up, if the higher-ups were to investigate it, it would be difficult for Sir Li to blame them, and when the time comes, he\'ll be unable to protect himself, so how can he protect you?

"Don\'t be impatient, Mr. Qi. The master behind you has a way to turn the situation around. If you need any money, just say so. Even if your family is going bankrupt, we have to settle this matter."

Wu Min opened her mouth, and the other salt merchants agreed, "Yes, please help again, Mr. Qi. You must keep this under wraps."

"Please, Mr. Qi..."

"No need to be so courteous, Lord Li is involved as well. He can be said to be standing on the same boat as all of you. If this boat were to capsize, we would all die, so we should all work together."

"Yes, Mr. Qi is right."

Qi Ming continued, "A while ago, news was transmitted from the transport ship, claiming that someone was fishing on the Xijiang River for a sunken boat. We can do some work here."

"Doing some work here?" Everyone was puzzled.

"Since the salt merchants are able to secretly push the government to buy salt to make up for their losses, I presume that you should have people in the government."

"This... It\'s just that they can say a few words, but they can\'t be considered our people. "

Everyone smiled and did not expose him, "Things have already happened, someone still has to take responsibility." Wu Min\'s heart skipped a beat. Looking at the smiling group of students, she felt a chill run down her spine. This was the crime of beheading someone. Whoever took the blame for this would lose their life. However, this fellow spoke in a relaxed manner, as if he was not taking human life seriously at all, "Mr. Qi\'s meaning is that we should push it away."

Someone comes out to take the blame? "

Qi Ming nodded his head, "Besides, it\'s not enough just to take the blame. The amount of salt that has been lost is huge. When the Emperor hears about it, he will be furious and he will think of ways to send people down to investigate. If we find any clues, you and I will not be able to escape either."

"Then what should we do?" He first went to find someone to blame for the huge amount of salt he had eaten, saying that the officials were greedy after seeing it. They purposely hid the real salt ship, replacing it with sand to make it look more plentiful before declaring that the salt ship had sunk. Then, Sir Li\'s eyes were like torches as he discovered the sinister thoughts of these people and directly detained them for interrogation …

They caught up to a large amount of salt! "

All the salt merchants couldn\'t help but look at each other, after thinking for a while, their faces were full of worry.

"Mr. Qi, the method you suggested is feasible, but where can we find that much salt now?" Last time, they had taken out all the goods they had on hand. They didn\'t expect to be robbed by others. Now that they had no salt in their hands, it was too late to buy anything.

They all frowned, "It is a life-and-death situation right now. Everyone, please do not hide anything! You are all famous salt merchants in Jiangnan, how can you not have goods on your hands? "

"Mr. Qi, our stocks have all been robbed by someone. There\'s really no salt available right now."

"Chief Wu, is there nothing you can do?"

Wu Min Zhi shook his head, "A woman can\'t do anything, so there\'s nothing I can do."

The salt merchant\'s face turned pale, their hearts filled with despair. Could it be that they will not be able to escape this calamity?

"Everyone, don\'t worry. Let\'s calm down and think of a way. There are a lot of salt merchants in Jiangnan, and now that it is the time to check the salt tax, those smaller ones must still have some stock. We need to find a way to buy some."

"Then the quantity is also far from enough?"

"Let\'s go buy it first and try our luck. It\'ll be fine as long as we can gather as much as possible. It\'s better than us getting tied up together and getting beheaded."

The salt merchants nodded. "That\'s the only way."

"I will report this to Master, and let him think of a way to mobilize some of them. Now that we are united, everyone must keep your mouths shut and not leak any more information, or else you will know the consequences."

"Yes..."

"Please rest assured Mr. Qi." After the salt merchants left, they started to search for connections and found out who among the salt merchants had hoards, but the result was not satisfactory. Those people did not have many hoards, but their taste was great, the price they offered was 40% higher than the market price, but even so, they could only hold their noses and buy from each other at a high price …

Even after the salt, they would still be grateful to each other.

Two days later, there was still no progress on the matter. All the salt merchants gathered at Wu Min\'s residence once again. "Leader Wu, I\'m afraid we won\'t be able to escape calamity this time."

"That\'s right. We\'ve raised the money for two days, but the number isn\'t even 10% yet. What should we do?"

Just as he was deep in thought, a servant suddenly entered the room and reported, "Master, someone has delivered a letter to you from the entrance. It\'s clearly meant to be in your hands."

Wu Min quickly sent it over. When she opened it, she saw the contents on the thread and stood up. There were only three words on the paper: I have salt!

Upon seeing Wu Min lose her composure, everyone hurriedly asked, "Chief Wu, is there some bad news?" They were truly scared, afraid that the next moment, they would hear the news of the government\'s order to capture them.

"Everyone, please take a look." Wu Min handed the letter over.

"This... "It\'s just three words, and there\'s no name written on it. Who actually has salt in their hands?"

"Is someone making fun of me?"

"I actually hope that it\'s true. No matter how much money I spend, I can at least preserve my life."

Wu Min raised her hand to signal for silence. "We are waiting patiently. Since the other party has sent a letter over, they must want to make a deal with us. They will definitely find a way to send another letter." Yes, Chief Wu\'s words are reasonable. "
