135. The Salt Fields Are Down(1/2)

"Mingzhu?" Jiang looked at the child who poked his head out of Brother Zhao Jin's arms in shock. Who is this Zhao Mingzhu?

His pearl is here too!

No wonder Brother Zhao Jin, who has always been a very fine life, would wrap himself so tightly with a straw raincoat. It turned out that it was because he was still holding Zhao Mingzhu in his arms.

When Jiang Zhen saw that Brother Zhao Jin was also here, he was very surprised and very happy. Now he was even more excited when he saw Zhao Mingzhu.

He has always missed Brother Zhao Jin and Zhao Mingzhu here, so when he saw Brother Zhao Jin before, he couldn't wait to go up and hug people, but now...

After sleeping outside for two months, Jiang Zhen was really, very dirty now, so dirty that he even disliked himself.

Under such circumstances, it doesn’t matter to hug Brother Zhao in a straw raincoat, but Zhao Mingzhu…

Jiang Zhen looked at his hand that was much thicker, had a lot of cracks and was stained with mud, and he couldn't stretch it out.

Brother Zhao Jin was also very excited. He was afraid that Jiang Zhen would hit Zhao Mingzhu before, so he took advantage of it. Now Jiang Zhen stretched out his hand, but he grabbed Jiang Zhen's hand and held it tightly.

After grabbing Jiang Zhen's hand, Zhao Jin Ge also patted Zhao Mingzhu with his other hand and said, "Mingzhu, call him dad!"

Zhao Mingzhu opened her eyes wide and stared at Jiang Zhen, her pair of black and transparent black and white eyes without blinking.

His Mingzhu can already call him dad? Jiang Zhen looked at Zhao Mingzhu with surprise on his face, waiting for her to call him, but Zhao Mingzhu just closed her mouth and refused to shout.

"She could already call people when she was at home, but now she doesn't call again. "Brother Zhao Jin looked at Jiang Zhen awkwardly. He taught Zhao Mingzhu for a long time, and finally taught Zhao Mingzhu to call him father. She was waiting for this moment. Unexpectedly, his daughter stopped calling him!

"It's okay, when I go back, I will definitely let her call me!" Jiang Zhen said. When he goes back, Zhao Mingzhu called him father, and he must have learned it.

As soon as Jiang Zhen finished speaking, Zhao Mingzhu, who had been watching him seriously, suddenly opened her mouth: "Dad."

Jiang Zhen just felt that his heart was about to melt.

The atmosphere between Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jinge could not be inserted into anyone except Zhao Mingzhu. Zhu Erlin looked at Jiang Ming when he saw this: "That's it?"

"That's our sister-in-law." Jiang Mingdao.

Brother Zhao Jin and Zhu Erlin imagined it a little differently, but Zhu Erlin was born in poverty and had a good impression of a strong person like Brother Zhao Jin: "This pair is good!"

Others also thought that Brother Zhao Jin was good. Not only did he have a strong body and could work like Shuang'er, but he would not be easily targeted by the people in Hongjiang Salt Field. They used to like this.

Only Zhou Maohe became dissatisfied: "It's an indignant! It's an indignant!" A man and a two-year-old were actually pulling and pulling in public!

However, no one listened to Zhou Maohe at all.

The people who came slowly behind were excitedly looking at the huge ships in front of them.

They have lived here for generations, but their experiences have always made them not very passionate about this place. Now they are willing to leave here, and they hope to go somewhere else and live a good life.

Under such circumstances, they were increasingly grateful to Jiang Zhen, and many people started crying in a low voice because of their happiness.

Brother Zhao Jin finally came to his senses. He quickly let go of Jiang Zhen's hand, and then said, "Let me get on the boat quickly. I'll have someone boil hot water for you. You can take a shower and have a good rest."

"Yes." Jiang Zhen nodded and said, "Let them go up first."

Brother Zhao Jin hoped that Jiang Zhen could go up early and have a good rest, but Jiang Zhen wanted those people to go up first, so he followed Jiang Zhen to help Jiang Zhen maintain order and send those people to go up first.

Originally, after seeing the big ship, the people were scrambling to get on the ship earlier, but Jiang Zhen did not rush to get on, but they were not so anxious.

These people were rescued by Jiang Zhen, but they lacked food and clothing these days, and had no shelter from wind and rain. In fact, they were not doing well. Many people died of illness. At this moment, many of them were pale and haggard.

In this regard, Jiang Zhen had no choice but to get them a little more food, but after that, these people would not have to go hungry...

"Where is Mr. Zheng planning to place them?" Jiang Zhen took the time to ask Brother Zhao Jin.

These days, Brother Zhao Jin has been following Zheng Yi and is very familiar with Zheng Yi’s arrangements: “Starting from here and sailing on the sea for a day, there is a small island there. Zheng Shao means to settle people on that island first.”

"There is an island?" Jiang Zhen said again: "Who belongs to that island?"

"There are some fishermen living on the island, and there are also sea commerce parks there, but the island is unowned." Zhao Jinge said.

"That's how..." Jiang Zhen looked in the direction that Brother Zhao Jin pointed, thinking.

These ten thousand people boarded ten ships respectively.

It took some effort, and it was already evening when everyone got on the boat.

It was not until this moment that Jiang Zhen got on the boat.

He got on the largest one. As soon as he got on, he saw Zheng Yi waiting on the bow of the ship.

Many people boarded the ship, but those people were arranged to board the ship from the stern, so the bow of the ship was very quiet and not dirty at all.

Zheng Yi was originally lying on a recliner at the bow of the boat. After seeing Jiang Zhen, he sat up: "Jiang Zhen, long time no see.

"Young Master Zheng." Jiang Zhen called Zheng Yi.

Zheng Yi smiled at Jiang Zhen and reached out to invite Jiang Zhen to sit next to him, but soon his expression froze.

He had seen Jiang Zhen look embarrassed after fighting with someone, but he had never seen Jiang Zhen, who was covered in mud and dirty clothes.

After looking at the exquisite snacks and wine he had prepared, Zheng Yi said, "Jiang Zhen, go and wash first, and we will talk later."

Jiang Zhen also felt that he should wash up first.

This time, Zhao Jin Ge came to pick up Jiang Zhen, and brought Li and Ruoer with him. After boarding the boat, he handed Zhao Mingzhu to Li, and then helped Jiang Zhen wash his hands and feet.

Before, although Jiang Zhen had thick calluses on his hands, his pampered life had left his hands without cracks, but now...

Brother Zhao Jin looked at Jiang Zhen’s hand that had cracked a lot, feeling very distressed.

"I'm fine." Jiang Zhen pulled his hand back and took off his clothes.

He loves to clean himself. He has boiled water to wipe his body these days, but his clothes are mainly dirty. After taking off his clothes, washing his hands, face and feet, it looks less bad than it was at the beginning.

"Brother Jin, do you want to wash with me?" Jiang Zhen stood next to the bathtub and looked at Brother Zhao with a smile.

Brother Zhao Jin's face suddenly turned red: "Wash yourself, I'll wash your hair." Jiang Zhen's hair, if he doesn't wash it properly, he will be shameless to see anyone!

Brother Zhao Jin refused to wash with Jiang Zhen, but when Jiang Zhen took it once and changed the water in the bathtub to wash it for the second time, he was still pulled into the bathtub by Jiang Zhen.

"Jiang Zhen, don't do this... Mr. Zheng is still waiting outside!"

"Let him wait a moment."

"My father-in-law has something to say to you..."

"He didn't say it just now, so there should be no hurry."

...

The wind is too strong on the sea.

Zheng Yi asked someone to move all the tables and chairs he placed on the deck into the cabin, and then asked someone to go to the door of Jiang Zhen and Zhao Jin Ge to wait: "Don't call someone, just let him come to see me after seeing Mr. Jiang come out."

He thought that Jiang Zhen would not be able to clean up for a while.

It took Jiang Zhen an hour to find Zheng Yi, and at this time, the sky was completely dark.

However, there were many candles in the cabin where Zheng Yi was staying, which made the place look very bright.

"Mr. Zheng, is there any signs of things?" Jiang Zhen asked after entering the door.

"Yes." Zheng Yi smiled, then pointed to the direction where Hongjiang salt farm was: "That place will be the Zheng family in the future."

The imperial envoy sent by the Empress Dowager this time, Yang, had already arrived at Wuzhong Mansion. The first thing he did after arriving at Wuzhong Mansion was to call back all the generals who went to "put the rebellion".

It was obviously because of the Hongjiang Salt Field that was corrupt and abused the law, so the imperial envoy Zhou Maohe brought people to copy it. How could it be the salt household rebellion? As soon as Yang Qin sent a delegation, he convicted the generals, and then directly changed the generals to control the military power.

"Envoy Yang Qin has obtained military power. Next, he will start to clean up the officialdom here. The officials from Wuzhong Mansion and Hexing Mansion will probably have to replace a large number of them." Zheng Yi said.

If it weren't for knowing that the Queen Mother had disliked Hongjiang Salt Field, he wouldn't have agreed to Jiang Zhen's plan to take action against Hongjiang Salt Field from the beginning. If he hadn't guessed that the generals who went to "put the rebellion" would probably not be able to get good results in the end, Zheng Yi wouldn't have agreed to Jiang Zhen go to Hongjiang Salt Field at that time.

Now, it is also because the new imperial envoy has defined the original "Salt House Rebellion" as those generals who did not obey orders and sent troops randomly, so Zheng Yi would come to pick up people in person, and even did not mind contacting Zhu Erlin, the former "rebel leader".

These are just poor salt households persecuted by officers and soldiers, and they are not rebels at all.

Jiang Zhen also understood all this.

He dared to take on Zhu Erlin and others because he knew that as long as they survived the previous wave, they would definitely not be able to do anything.

Of course, they still have to leave now... Even if the imperial envoy takes off their hat of "rebel" on their heads, he cannot keep these disobedient salt households. After dealing with the officials, he will definitely "clean up" the place.

After that... there will be no photos and videos. In the future, these people will change into clean clothes and take good care of themselves, shaving their beards off their faces... Who can recognize them? Then, they will be back openly.

"Young Master Zheng, who will take care of the salt farm in the future?" Jiang Zhen asked again.

"The salt field will be managed by this Yang Qinshi." Zheng Yi said: "Although this Lord Yang is very capable, he has been wasting more than ten years because he offended people. He still helped my second uncle a few years ago. Only with my second uncle taking care of him can he have a prosperous career. Last year, my cousin married Lord Yang's eldest son."

Their Zheng family has no power in the court, but they still have such an in-laws.

When Jiang Zhen raised his eyebrows when he heard this, his mood suddenly became very good.

Zheng Yi asked again at this time: "Jiang Zhen, what do you want to do?" Their Zheng family can benefit from the salt farm, but Jiang Zhen should not do it.

Even if they ask Jiang Zhen’s Jin Zhen’s escort agency to help transport salt in the future, Jiang Zhen actually won’t make much money.

"Mr. Zheng, I want to get some sea boats out to sea." Jiang Zhen said.

"Going to sea?" Zheng Yi looked at Jiang Zhen, and his heart became hot again.

Maritime merchants are more profitable than salt merchants.

But the sea is in danger.

"If you do a maritime businessman, just tell me what goods you want." Zheng Yi said. He cherished his life, and in the end he gave up the idea of ​​becoming a maritime businessman.
