God Catch starts with adding points

The only thing missing now is a way to smuggle salt.

After failing to snatch Lu Bai's land, they must have found another way to establish a salt-selling channel belonging to the admiral.

All that's missing now is salt.

Lu Bai estimated that Deputy Baihu would want to get back the [-]% of the salt for the admiral.

Lu Bai stood up and was about to leave when Gu Qinghuan stopped him, "Let me ask you, how much do you plan to give him?"

Lu Bai smiled, "It must be [-]%."

What kind of right to invest [-]% of the shares, and then get [-]% of the shares, I want to eat ass!

Now that Lu Bai has entered the realm of cultivation, he has become more courageous and no longer takes the admiral seriously.

Gu Qinghuan looked at him, "What level are you in now?"

Lu Bai was puzzled, but he still replied, "The mid-stage of Qi refining."

Accompanied by the healing of the people in the city, the task of hanging pots to help the world has allowed Lu Bai to continue to gain merit points. He has now obtained 65 merit points. The method has been promoted to the middle stage of Qi refining.

However, since there are still a few sporadic patients, Lu Bai's task has not been completed yet, and the Beidou formation has not been received yet.

2 Chapter Fifty

"The middle of the gas refining period!"

Gu Qinghuan muttered, feeling that Lu Bai could hold back the admiral's anger, so he waved for Lu Bai to go.

Before leaving, Lu Bai had a gourd of wine.

After surviving the hot summer noon, the market place should be lazy, but there is a peaceful atmosphere of a noisy future.

However, after a plague, Yancheng's vitality was seriously injured.

Lu Bai walked through the sparse crowd.

Some people sighed for the lost life and the loneliness that will come in the evening.

In the past, there were vendors selling candied haws and other snacks on the street, but now they are selling children, daughters, and even daughters-in-law, just to exchange some money, prepare a thin coffin for the dead, and earn a living for the living. Opportunity - the upcoming salt tax, if you can't pay it, you will really die.

There are many beggars on the street.

Lu Bai heard from several elders under his command that the sub-rudders in Yan City are almost saturated, and most of the newcomers to the Beggars' Gang are orphans, and some women and old people who have lost the breadwinners of their families.

Almost all their parents and sons died from the plague.

Naturally, the Beggars would not refuse anyone who came.

Not only did they not reject those who came, the beggar gang, under the auspices of Gu Qinghuan, also selected suitable people from among these orphans as their future training targets.

Lu Bai turned a street corner, cigarettes lingering around.

This is a T-shaped intersection, and a statue of a sword fairy is enshrined in the center.

Many people gathered here, bustling, shoulder to shoulder, holding three sticks of incense, praying and muttering to themselves in front of the statue.

Their prayers are not limited to getting rid of the plague, but also wish for a better life such as reducing the salt tax.

Amidst the smog, Lu Bai walked through the fog in the autumn morning.

He walked slowly, and saw some patients lying in the corner in the smoke, and saw some numb children with grass marks on their heads.

When he came out of T-shaped alley with smoke, a woman wearing a cool shirt stood at the door and waved a handkerchief to Lu Bai, with a charming smile on her face.

Lu Bai remembered that it used to be a shop that sold tea, food and pastries. Because the Jiangnan pastries were very authentic, Gu Qinghuan often asked Lu Bai to bring some pastries from the shop when he returned home.

They are a mom-and-pop shop, where women sell and husbands make.

Now that the husband is gone, the woman came out and really sold it.

Lu Bai walked through the streets after noon in the hot summer, but it seemed like he was walking in the bleak streets in winter.

Kagura Restaurant is also much more bleak.

In the past, there was a lot of traffic and people coming and going in front of the gate, but now there is not a single carriage.

When Lu Bai went in, there were very few guests inside, only three or four idlers eating wine.

There were also two fair men in brocade clothes staring at the person who came in.

When they saw Lu Bai coming in, they walked over with smiling faces, and said in a thin voice, "Lord Lu, the admiral has been waiting for you for a long time."

Lu Bai smiled and said: "Yo, the admiral came here in person, blame me, blame me, I thought it was just the Lord Baihu cleaning up for me."

The father-in-law on the left smiled softly, "Lord Lu has just done something important for the Admiral. You are the darling of the Admiral now. It's too late for the Admiral to love you. How could he blame you?"

He turned sideways and asked Lu Bai to go upstairs.

Lu Bai picked up the wine gourd and took a sip of the wine, then walked upstairs slowly.

Shenlefang is a wooden building with three floors, the third floor is a private room.

Although the second floor is not a private room, the layout is not bad.

At this moment, the sunlight from the west came in through the doors and windows, and it was as miserable as blood, dividing the entire second floor into two, with blood on the left and darkness on the right, as if there was no light to go.

A gust of wind blows, making the veils on the doors and windows flutter, as if autumn is here.

The second floor was quiet.

But it's not that there is no one, but there are only people who want to invite Lu Bai - the admiral, the deputy Baihu, and a few people in plain brocade clothes.

Judging by their appearance, nine out of ten are the adopted sons of the admiral.

Lu Bai took the lead, "Admiral, forgive me, forgive me, I didn't know you were here, otherwise I would have come here as fast as I could."

Everyone present stood up.

The leader is over half a hundred years old, dressed in brocade clothes, with gray and white hair mixed with a smile on his mouth, he looks amiable and makes people feel like spring breeze.

However, if you look closely at his eyes, you will find that his eyes are cold and majestic. If you stare at someone for a while, cold sweat will break out on your back.

This high-ranking person is presumably the admiral.

The admiral smiled, "We did this on a whim. President Lu doesn't think we're bothering you. There's no such thing as forgiveness."

He pointed to the seat opposite him, "Zongqi Lu, please sit down."

Lu Bai was not polite and sat down directly.

Then, the Deputy Baihu and the admiral's adopted sons sat down.

The servant first poured a glass of wine for everyone.

Lu Bai declined, and poured himself a glass of wine from his own wine gourd.

The admiral raised his eyelids, but said nothing.

The Deputy Baihu and the adopted sons of the admiral looked strange.

The admiral said: "There was a plague for no apparent reason. If it weren't for the Sword Immortal Temple, we might still be living as mice at home today."

He changed the subject, "Zongqi Lu, I heard that you were the one who released the method to get rid of the plague."

He was very interested in this, and he didn't know how Lu Bai found out.

Lu Bai used a wine gourd to pour himself a glass of wine, and said brazenly: "That's because I believe in the sword fairy. I almost worshiped the sword fairy temple when I saw it. The sword fairy was moved by my devotion and healed my aunt's illness." Well, then I realized that praying to the sword fairy is useful."

The admiral smiled, but didn't smile, "Your aunt agrees with you worshiping the Sword Immortal Temple?"

Lu Bai wondered, "Why don't you agree?"

The admiral believed his evil.

Gu Qinghuan and the Lu family have a sworn hatred.

However, from what he said, it was clear that Lu Bai still didn't know about his aunt's enmity with the Lu family.

So, he changed the subject again, "I heard that in Yongle City, you sold the salt to Deputy Liu Qianhu and the others?"

Lu Bai nodded, "Yeah."

The admiral patted the table, "Okay! Great! I knew I was right about you. Lu Zongqi is definitely a man capable of great things."

He beamed.

This time, there was a smile in his eyes.

When he asked Lu Bai to do this errand, he had already expected various results in his heart. Lu Bai was considered qualified when he came back from the salt dealer, and excellent if he figured out the way, but he never expected that Lu Bai not only found the way It was clear, and when Liu Fuqianhu and those old fritters couldn't get any salt, Lu Bai actually got it done.

This is equivalent to a 150-point answer sheet, and Lu Bai gave an answer of [-] points.

How could he not like it.

The admiral called on everyone to raise their glasses to toast Lu Bai with a glass of wine.

Lu Bai poured another glass of wine from the wine gourd, and then toasted with everyone.

The admiral's adoptive sons looked unhappy, and the deputy Baihu's expression was particularly gloomy, but they looked at the admiral and saw that he was very happy, so they didn't speak.

After putting down the wine glass, the admiral said, "General Lu, tell us quickly, how did you get the salt before them?"

Lu Bai waved his hand, "Hey, this is simple."

He raised his chopsticks first, picked up a chopsticks dish for himself, and then said, "I went to the Salt Supervision Department and told their adults, I am a friend of your city lord, I want to buy private salt, you Give me some private salt, and then the adults said, oh, since you are the friend of our city lord, I will give you cheaper private salt, which is [-]% of the price of official salt. The private salt we sell now is originally the same as official salt. One price. This lord has talked to this point, what can I say, of course I say yes—"

Chapter 251 Turn Your Face

Lu Bai spread his hands, "Then the private salt will be in hand."

After Lu Bai's voice fell, the surrounding area was extremely quiet.

A gust of wind blew, and Lu Bai even heard the fluttering and rubbing of the window screens.

Deputy Baihu's face turned black.

The faces of the adopted sons were also not good-looking, and some adopted sons were already gnashing their teeth.

The admiral's expression was not very good either.

Not only the eyeballs are full of murderous look, but also the smile on the face has a trace of murderous look, just like a dog that does not bark but bites, it is terrifying.

"Lu Zongqi, you really know how to joke." The admiral smiled, the words were almost ground out with his teeth, dry and harsh.

Lu Bai blinked, "What I said is true, I can swear on it with my life."

The admiral restrained his emotions, asked his servants to pour him a glass of wine, and shook the glass leisurely, "Let me remind Mr. Lu that there are rumors in the capital that next year, the salt business will be under the jurisdiction of the West Factory. You know, Dong The factory and the West Factory have never been separated, and our family still has some relationship in the West Factory."

He drank the glass of wine, "At that time, everything about the salt affairs will be a matter of our family."

boom!

The admiral slapped the wine glass on the table, and said with a chuckle, "So, Mr. Lu, those who achieve major events should broaden their horizons."

Lu Bai had a humble expression, "I've been taught, but what I said is true."

A adopted son almost slapped the table.

If you don't want to tell everyone about the way of smuggling salt, please find a better reason. With such a stupid reason to fool, who do you despise IQ?

The admiral decided to expose this fault.

Now is not the time to turn your back.

Their salt is still in Lu Bai's hands.

"Since Lu Zongqi doesn't want to say it, we won't force it." The admiral smiled, "However, trust is still very important for everyone to work together."

Lu Bai nodded, "Your Excellency is right, trust is the most important thing, and I will learn more from the admiral in the future."

The admiral felt that this was wrong.

But he couldn't explain why, so he nodded in relief, and continued: "The Holy Majesty has already rejected the city lord's memorial on the exemption of salt tax, so this year's salt tax is collected normally, which is a big deal for us. Big business requires early preparations."

"Humph!"

A adoptive son said at the right time, "Father, I got the news that the salt price that Lu Zongqi got was [-]% of the official salt, and the salt price that was sold to Deputy Liu Qianhu and the others was also [-]%. The salt price given to Liu Fuqianhu and the others doesn’t need to be too much, [-]% is enough for us to take the lead, but it’s a pity—”

He glanced at Lu Bai, "Because of some people, I missed it now."
