He understood, he understood very clearly.
It seems that I have overestimated Lord Huang.
He thought that he was a good official who thought for the people, so he felt grateful in his heart.
Unexpectedly, it was completely unexpected.
Did he go through so many twists and turns and spent so much effort to dig a big pit just to trick him? Revenge for scolding the dog?!
Look at her narrow-minded appearance.
Most importantly, he didn't scold her wrongly back then.
The scene at that time
well
Looking at the smug and arrogant smile on his face, Zhu Yu felt that she had scolded him a little too lightly.
However, on second thought,
It seemed that he didn't know the real situation in Salt Mountain. He thought that he had broken the contract today and was begging for mercy?!
Hehe, interesting.
"What's wrong?"
"You can't be unconvinced!"
Huang Zicheng looked at Zhu Yu in front of him and narrowed his eyes. He was so happy that he could not close his mouth. He waved behind him.
Behind him, the old butler, who knew everything, respectfully handed over the contract that he had prepared long ago.
Huang Zicheng held the contract in his hand and waved it around."Zhu Yu, did you see that? It was written clearly in black and white that if you break the contract, you have to compensate me with a thousand taels of silver.”
As he spoke, he opened the contract and pointed at one of the clauses.
"Look carefully, it's a thousand taels a month!”
"I'm not afraid of you going back on your word. This thing is kept in the salt commissioner's yamen in three copies.”
"If you don't fulfill the contract, I can report you to the yamen. At that time, according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, your family property will be confiscated and you will be imprisoned!”
Zhu Yu's expression became even stranger when she heard this.
At this moment, Corey spoke again and waved his hand."How is it? Since you've breached the contract, give me the 1000 taels of silver for the first month according to the contract.”
Zhu Yu coughed lightly and took a small bag from her back, placing it in front of Huang Zicheng.
Huang Zicheng couldn't help but frown when he saw this.
These days, he had sent people to secretly watch Zhu Yu's every move from afar. He thought that he had consumed a lot of energy and had no more money. This time, he reported him to the yamen.
Could he still take out a thousand taels of silver now?
Yes, but it doesn't matter. You can avoid it for the first time, but you can't avoid it for the fifteenth time. You were lucky enough to avoid it this month, but you still need to pay 1,000 taels next month.
What was there to be afraid of? He could afford to wait!
At the thought of this, Corey narrowed his eyes and smiled."Oh? You're quite sensible. You've already prepared in advance?”
As she spoke, she bent down and began to open the small bag.
When he opened the bag, he was dumbfounded.
He did not see the Great Ming Treasure Notes, but what greeted his eyes were small white particles.
He picked it up and sniffed it before blurting out,"" This is salt???"
"That's right!"
Zhu Yu nodded heavily as she watched Huang Zicheng stare with his eyes wide open, mouth wide open, and waist bent over to pick at the salt.
"It's still refined salt. It's a high-quality product."
When she said this, Zhu Yu was overjoyed.
Idiot!
Why are you here to humiliate yourself again?
"High-quality goods? Refined salt?"
Seeing Zhu Yu suddenly become so calm, Huang Zicheng's heart thumped, and he had a bad feeling.
"Lord Huang, actually, I came here today to thank you for selflessly transferring the Northern Suburbs Salt Mine to me."
"To tell you the truth, the salt mine under that salt mountain contains a lot of salt. It's more than the salt mines near Jin Ling city combined.”
"See, in just three days, I refined more than 1,000 catties of fine salt. I just went to the salt commissioner's office and sold it at 40 cents per catty.”
"Aiyohei!"
As he spoke, he took out a stack of Ming Dynasty notes from his pocket and counted them in his hand. He then waved them in front of Huang Zicheng and said,"See, four hundred taels in three days.”
After he was done, he stuffed it back into his waist. This time, he deliberately stuffed it into his waist. Zhu Yu straightened her waist and patted it again. The smile on her face bloomed like a flower.
"It's very bulging. It can't fit anymore."
......
"Me, me, me!"
Huang Zicheng's entire body trembled violently.
He understood, he understood everything.
This salt mine was a high-grade salt mine, but he sold it at the price of ten catties of salt per month.
Right now, his mind was filled with the words that Zhu Yu had said.
"In three days, I refined more than 1,000 catties. It's still high-grade."
"Three days and I earned four hundred taels."
"There's so much money in my waist that I can't stuff it in."
“.......”
"These are mine."
He turned his head to look at Zhu Yu with difficulty and muttered with a wooden expression,"These are all mine."
"Yours?"
"Lord Huang, take a look at this.”
Zhu Yu took the contract from him and pointed to the terms on it,"This contract clearly states that I only need to provide you with ten catties of refined salt refined from the Northern Suburbs Salt Mine every month for six months.”
"There are three copies of this contract.”
Zhu Yu chuckled and pointed at the bag of salt in front of him."This is for the first month. There are still five months left. Tomorrow, I'll send someone to send them all over to you.”
With that, he turned around.
Just as he turned his head, he seemed to have thought of something. He pointed at the bag of salt and said,"Milord, I put two catties more in here. When I send someone to deliver the rest of the refined salt tomorrow, it will be deducted.”
"In other words, I'll just send someone to send you another 48 catties.”
"You and I"
"Ah pu!"
Huang Zicheng's entire body was trembling violently. His fat body suddenly trembled, and he could only feel the strong voice in his chest that was a little fishy. He could not help but spit out a mouthful of old blood.
Seeing this, Zhu Yu's expression was cold without any sympathy. His expression did not change.
He shook his head and sighed.
"Sigh, I originally wanted to thank Lord Huang today and invite you to the Drunken Immortal Restaurant to eat their signature dish, Shrimp Pig's Heart.”
"Now it seems that I can only go back to the residence and eat more pig liver to replenish my blood.”
