MTL - Enter the Room-Chapter 209
Chapter 209
Shao Qing laughed loudly, and returned to his sunny and bright youthful appearance.
Song Jiyun heaved a sigh of relief.
Dai Sishi ran over and said awkwardly: "Master, the people from the inspection department want fifty taels of silver, and they say it's the wages of those trackers."
If it is really the wages of the trackers, why is it not the trackers who come to ask for money, but the people from the inspection department?
This is clearly extortion.
This kind of thing is often done by inspection departments all over the country, which is good, at least there is a name, some don't even have a fig leaf, and simply ask for money directly.
Song Jiyun was mentally prepared.
This is also a normal loss for merchants.
She asked Zhou Zheng to give Dai Sishi the money.
Then he observed Shao Qing's expression.
Shao Qing didn't seem to feel that there was anything inappropriate, and chatted with a few boatmen there, and planned to go fishing with them at night.
Song Jiyun thought about his reaction to these things along the way, which shows that he is not very clear about these little tricks.
Follow Yuan Yunzhong, but don't know about these general affairs...
Song Jiyun was attentive when he left.
Who knew that they gave up the ship's space, but the cross-eyed inspection department made someone lead a lucky boat just like them.
The person in charge on the Fuzhou ship is also shoulder to shoulder with Cross Eye, who looks very familiar.
I don’t know if I spent money to get through the cross-eyed or has something to do with the inspection department?
Song Jiyun glanced at it and then forgot it.
She repeatedly told Dai Sishi to arrange the night watch and vigil.
She is not afraid of thieves coming onto the boat, but she is afraid of people from the inspection department becoming thieves. If the family of officials and bandits is still calling for the thief to be caught, then she will not be able to keep the porcelain in her boat.
Dai Sishi obviously knew the power of it, and discussed with Song Jiyun the arrangements for night watch and vigil.
A curse came from the bow of the ship.
Song Jiyun and Dai Sishi looked up.
I saw Shao Qing angrily throwing the fishing rod on the deck of the tank boat with a "slap", pointing at the Fuchuan parked on their original berth, and asked loudly, "What's going on?"
Song Jiyun walked over quickly with Dai Sishi.
The steward of Fu Chuan who occupied their position heard Shao Qing's movement, not only did not calm down, but arrogantly smiled at Shao Qing sarcastically, turned his head and enthusiastically said loudly to Cross Eyed and others: "Thank you, several officials. Master, Zuixian Tower, I treat you, if you don’t get drunk today, you won’t return.”
Cross-eyed and other inspectors laughed flamboyantly, and Cross-eyed even sarcastically said: "Some people just don't know current affairs!"
Shao Qing was so angry that he leaned on the side of the boat and was about to jump down.
Song Jiyun held him firmly, and said: "We have something on the boat, it's better to stop here."
Those boats of the same size as them all occupy a better position, but also because each other's boats are about the same size, the side of the ship is next to the side of the ship, and you can jump onto the other side's boat by turning over the side of the ship. And because their location is not very good, there are big boats mixed with small boats. The big boats can capsize onto the small boats, but the people on the small boats cannot easily get onto the big boats.
This is also the main reason why Song Jiyun is willing to give up the original ship space.
Since Shao Qing learned that her newly fired blue and white plum vases could sell for two thousand taels of silver for a pair of feet high, he saw that this boat of porcelain was no longer porcelain, but a boat of gold.
Hearing what Song Jiyun said, he immediately silenced the flag.
The cross-eyed chicken glanced at them, and walked away with Fu Chuan's steward.
Unexpectedly, when they got up the next morning, the water transport ships left the dock one after another, and the inspection department personnel also began to follow their normal procedures to read their guides and inspect their goods. But Cross Eyed suddenly brought a group of people up, and stopped them from leaving, saying that they had discovered the escaped pirates, and that all passing ships needed to re-examine their guides and cargo.
Song Cuiyun looked at the ships on the left and right.
Everyone needs to retest.
Song Jiyun frowned.
She was not afraid of them checking again, but these people acted very rudely. They almost broke a porcelain bottle of their height when inspecting the goods on their ship before.
Besides, this cross-eyed rooster seemed to be a bad person.
She and Zhou Zheng discussed in a low voice: "You go to the inspection department to see if you can take care of it and get someone else to inspect our ship."
Zhou Zheng also agreed with Song Jiyun's approach, he went to the inspection department with a pocket of money.
Soon, another person was sent to check their ship.
Cross Eyes pulled the person aside and muttered for a long time, the other person who was sent hesitated for a while, finally stood on the side of Cross Eyes, and led the Cross Eyes to their cargo hold.
Cross-eyed saw the porcelain they brought, their eyes were red, and they pulled the other people aside and muttered for a while. When they got on the deck, the tone of the group of people changed: "The cargo is overweight, and the fine is tripled."
According to the imperial court's decree, the inspection department of the goods has to collect taxes.
That is to say, they have to draw a tax again.
And it was three times the last time.
Song Cuiyun's porcelain is highly profitable, so I'm not afraid that they will levy another tax.
But it makes people unhappy to bully people like this.
The cross-eyed man squinted at them, and cursed pointedly: "I don't know how to flatter you!"
Song Jiyun thought that he still had the famous post of King Zhang Huai in his hand, so he smiled coldly, and was just about to make things worse, get over these troublesome little devils, and deal with the King of Hades, but Shao Qing had already cursed back and said nothing , kicked the cross-eyed on the deck, pointed at the cross-eyed and said, "I'd like to see how the **** you flatter me!"
The people in the inspection department probably never dreamed that someone would dare to beat them first in broad daylight, under the eyes of everyone, and in public. Dazed for a moment. But soon came back to his senses, Hua La La pulled out the saber and stick from his waist and greeted Shao Qing.
Song Jiyun was very beautiful in both her dynasties, and it is easy to meet people of various religions and top schools when traveling on boats. In order to avoid trouble, she either hides in the cabin or wears a veiled hat.
Hearing the movement, she grabbed the veiled hat and put it on her head, and ran out of the cabin, seeing a dozen people surrounded by Shao Qing alone, Dai Sishi and the bodyguard she hired to help guard the ship were all stunned. There, I couldn't help becoming anxious, and shouted loudly: "You are all dead! If you don't fight back when your own people are beaten, who dares to hand over your back to you in the future."
That's someone from the inspection department!
The bodyguards were still hesitating there, but Dai Sishi knew how powerful Song Jiyun was, and had no doubts about her ability, so he rushed over immediately to help Shao Qing and the gang from the inspection department fight.
have to!
Several bodyguards saw that even if they didn't do anything, they probably couldn't stay out of it, so they just rolled up their sleeves and joined the group fight.
There were people coming and going on the pier, and the conflict here quickly attracted everyone's attention. Someone from the inspection department was beaten, which was terrible, and someone immediately reported it to the inspection department.
Soon, a person in a green official robe led a large group of government servants in black clothes and soap boots holding sticks and rushed towards them aggressively, shouting loudly: "Who is it? Even the people from the Inspection Department Dare to fight? I think he is desperate for his life?"
The inspection department of Nanjing Xiaguan Wharf is not a casual inspection department. Others are from the yamen of the ninth rank or the genuine ninth rank, but it is the seventh rank.
Although it is under the management of Tianfu, the person on duty is the pro-military guard under the five armies of the Nanjing Ministry of War.
Many meritorious children of Nanjing live here.
It was the first time in so many years that people from the inspection department were beaten.
