"Wait!" He slurped it up, confusing the owner of the tea stall.
Before the owner of the tea stall wanted to ask what was going on, the leading salt merchant directly stretched out his finger and wiped it in the teacup that Song Wuya and the others had just used.
Seeing this, the owner of the tea stall hurriedly said: "Guest officer, this teacup was used by someone else just now. If you want to drink tea, I will replace it with a clean one for you."
The salt merchant couldn't help but put his finger into his mouth, and then spat out with a bah sound.
"It's really salty!" He said, but a smug smile appeared on his face, he raised his hand and led those people outside.
The owner of the tea stall looked at this scene and didn't know what he was doing. Seeing them leave, he said angrily, "It's true that I'm idle, and I'm panicking because I'm idle! What the hell are you doing!"
After leaving the tea stand, the salt merchants did not chase after Song Wuya and the others, but turned around and went to other places.
Not long after, these people came to a courtyard.He knocked on the door, and after the courtyard door opened, he went in directly.
Entering the courtyard, the leading salt merchant immediately asked, "Where is Fifth Brother?"
"It's in the house." The people in the yard said it and ignored it.
Those people entered the house directly, and immediately said like the people in the house: "Fifth brother, this Niu family has played us all. The warehouse caught fire, and they said that the salt was burned, but in fact they still have a batch of illegal salt." , is hiding in the racecourse outside the city. If we hadn't met those two boys today, we really wouldn't have discovered this!"
"Oh? There is such a thing? You can investigate clearly, don't be fooled by others!" The middle-aged man sitting in the room wrote lightly after hearing this.

Chapter 522 Siege of the Racecourse
"It's absolutely true! We tracked all the way, and those two boys didn't find them. We know their whereabouts. Not only that, they also brought private salt from the racecourse. This is the fact that we saw with our own eyes. !" The leading salt merchant said eagerly, as if he was afraid that the fifth master would not believe what he said.
Fifth Lord listened and nodded: "Okay, Hutou. Since you are so sure, then I will leave this matter to you. I think you will do it beautifully. What do you think? ?”
"Thank you Fifth Master for your trust, don't worry, this time I will guarantee that the Niu family will hand over their private salt." Hutou agreed without hesitation, which shows that he must have a solution in mind.
But at this moment, Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo did not return directly to the inn, but continued to sit at the tea stand on the street.
"Brother Wu Ya, let's just sit here, nothing will happen, right?" Bai Zhuo looked around, these people were all salt merchants, maybe they would recognize them, maybe something unexpected would happen.
Song Wuya shook his head: "Don't worry, let's wait here and watch the show!"
"Watching a good show? What good show? Could it be that we just went to the racecourse, and these salt merchants will go to the racecourse to surround them later?" Bai Zhuo was very puzzled, but he also knew that the good show that can be seen now is naturally those The salt merchants besieged the cattle farm.
Song Wuya nodded, this was really what he was waiting for.
As soon as the two of them were talking, a person rushed over not far away and shouted loudly: "Everyone, please listen to me."
At this moment, the salt merchants present immediately looked at that person.
After the man saw that everyone was paying attention, he immediately said to them: "This damned Niu family, they hid private salt in the racecourse and refused to give it to us. Let us waste it here. We can't be here now. Waiting for it, if you keep waiting like this, I’m afraid the money will be for nothing. Let’s work together, let’s go to the Niu’s racecourse to stop them and let them release the salt.”
"You won't be lying to us, are you? The warehouse of this Niu's family has already been burned, how can there be private salt in the racecourse?" These salt merchants listened to this man's words and didn't believe it.
The man immediately explained: "This is absolutely true. What do you think was the reason for the fire at the horse farm yesterday? It was because someone went to investigate whether private salt was hidden in the horse farm. It was really expected. Those private salt Hiding in the racecourse, they didn't dare to use water to put out the fire, but used wet soil!"
I don't know if he really knew it or just made it up. The salt merchants here didn't believe it at first, but when the words came out, they all showed surprise expressions, obviously they were all tempted.
"Whether he is true or not, let's just go and see."
I don't know who yelled such a sentence, but soon everyone got up and walked outside.
Seeing this situation, Bai Zhuo said happily: "These guys are really eager. We just made a show and released the news, and they immediately followed. They are really quick!"
"It goes without saying that they don't want to wait any longer now. After all, if they continue to wait like this, they will spend a lot of money every day! Although these salt merchants have money, it is impossible for them to spend it here like this After all, they are here to make money, not to spend money, do you think they can not be in a hurry? What's more, they also know very well that even if the private salt of this Niu family is in stock, there will never be too much There are many, not everyone has a share, so hurry up." Regarding the mentality of these salt merchants, Song Wuya seemed to have figured it out very thoroughly, and expressed all their thoughts.
Soon there were only the two of them left in the bustling tea stand. The tea owner felt strange looking at them, frowning and looked at those people and went straight to the gate of the city.
"You two young masters, why didn't you follow?" The tea boss asked Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo while cleaning the table.
Song Wuya smiled slightly and said: "These people are all salt merchants. What they do has nothing to do with us. What we did in the past, we can only watch the excitement. Besides, the excitement is not good, I haven't heard of it Did they go to Niu's horse farm? Didn't a salt merchant die at the gate of Niu's house a few days ago? I don't want to follow these people, I didn't see the excitement, but I became the excitement in the eyes of others."
"What you said is true, what you said is true! I have also heard about that matter, and this kind of thing is really hard to guarantee!" The tea boss also agreed with Song Wuya's words.
At this time, what else can he do if he doesn't agree?After all, in his business here, only the two of them were left in the blink of an eye. If they all left, then what business would he do?
Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo didn't get up, but they looked in the direction of the city gate for a while, and saw that all the salt merchants were heading in the direction of the city gate.
"Brother Wu Ya, what should we do next?" Bai Zhuo knew that they would definitely not just watch here at this time, and would definitely do other things.
"Naturally, let them make trouble first. After drinking the tea, let's go to Yu Chun and tell him about it." Song Wuya said with a slight smile.
It's okay for these salt merchants to make trouble.But what Song Wuya is worried about now is that those fake officials will go to that place to make trouble again, so by telling Yu Chun, he can control it to some extent.
Originally, Song Wuya wanted to make things worse and worse, but there must be a limit to how big it is.If another person dies, I'm afraid that the salt merchant will completely lose trust in the Niu family, and it will be difficult for him to do things.So this matter still needs to be controlled.
Soon, the tea was almost gone, and Song Wuya guessed that most of the salt merchants had already passed towards the racecourse.If they delay any longer, they are afraid that those fake officials will really take advantage of the loopholes.
After the two paid the tea money, they immediately headed towards the county government.
"Is Master Yu here?" Song Wuya asked directly when he came to the Yamen.
After the yamen servant nodded, without saying anything, Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo went in directly.
"Sir Song, why are you here? Is there anything you want to tell the lower officials to do?" Yu Chun asked immediately after seeing Song Wuya. He knew that Song Wuya must have something to do.
Song Wuya nodded and said, "My lord, hurry up and take someone to the racecourse outside the city. I just saw that I don't know who it is, and suddenly attracted a lot of salt merchants, and went to the racecourse outside the city. What kind of private salt is hidden in the horse farm outside the city, they have to go to that place to get the goods."
"What?" Yu Chun was shocked when he heard this, but in a split second, the surprised expression on Yu Chun's face recovered. "It's okay, you don't have to worry about it. There is no private salt in the racecourse. They can't get it. At most, it's just making trouble there."
"Master Yu, don't be too happy too early. Don't forget that someone just died in front of the Niu's house. It's not a big deal for these salt merchants to make trouble, but if those fake officials show up again, I'm afraid it will still happen." Someone will die in front of the Niu's racecourse. It will be difficult to say when the time comes, and I'm afraid that it will be useless to elect a helmsman."
Song Wuya's words reached such a serious point, Yu Chun finally realized it, his face changed suddenly, and he immediately responded: "Master Song said that the officials will call people out of the city right now."
As Yu Chun said that, he left Song Wuya and Bai Zhuo behind, immediately called for officials, and prepared to leave the city.
After watching Yu Chunfeng leave in a hurry, Bai Zhuocai asked: "Brother Wuya, if those fake officials really appear, wouldn't that be a good thing? Then you won't have to elect the helmsman, won't you just get rid of this matter?" ?”
"Although that's what you said, but if that happens, things will get out of hand, and it will be difficult for us to handle things." Song Wuya explained to Bai Zhuo, he naturally had something to worry about.
Bai Zhuo nodded and didn't say anything more, but he suddenly said: "Then Yu Chun is going outside the city, should we really not follow? Just wait here?"
"Yes! Do you want to go outside the city? When someone finds out, they will settle accounts with us. In the chaos, it will inevitably be unfavorable to us." Song Wuya also wanted to follow him, but he felt a little uncomfortable. Dare, it's too risky to go out after all, if someone beats you up, it's a trivial matter.If they are recognized by these salt merchants, then things will be troublesome, and they will definitely become the target of public criticism.
You know, inciting arson, and what is currently blocking the Niu's horse farm, these are all things they did.Presumably those salt merchants who did these things must be in this place. When these people point all their fingers at the two of them, I am afraid that the Niu family will immediately become the first to teach them a lesson.
"Hey! This makes me really unhappy. Now I really want to go and see how the situation is." Bai Zhuo said with a disappointed face.
Song Wuya didn't bother to pay attention to him anymore, they couldn't go out anyway, so they didn't go anywhere now, after leaving the county office, they went back to the inn directly.
A lot has passed in this world, and it's almost evening. Those salt merchants are gathered in front of the Niu's horse farm at this moment. I'm afraid they won't just yell a few words and finish the job like last time. They will definitely find a way to rush in. Then find out if the private salt is in the cattle farm.
