Chapter 126 - 130

Chapter 126.1

Second Master Zheng was now highly valued by the empress dowager as an imperial minister in the imperial court; he firmly did not join any side . . . Jiang Zhen and Zheng Yi both knew that if they prepared in advance, he would have been able to find the right person to take over the Hongjiang salt farm.

However, Jiang Zhen was not good at these types of things, so in the end, he did not say much.

After Zheng Yi and Jiang Zhen talked about the Hongjiang salt farm, they spoke about Shen Anxin's affairs. "It was Shen Anxin who bribed the Jiang family."

"It was him?" Jiang Zhen was startled. After Shen Anxin confessed to him he never saw him again. He really did not expect that he would come up with such a thing.

"There should be Feng Jinyuan meddling into it," Zheng Yi added. When he initially learned about it, he was very angry. He did not say anything but made up his mind to give Shen Anxin some lessons in private, but then . . .

Seeing Feng Jinyuan and Shen Anxin fight later and then seeing that Shen Anxin refused to say anything about it when he was obviously not in the right state, he could more or less guess a little.

After guessing, it was not good to do anything more to Shen Anxin. But of course, continuing to cooperate with Shen Anxin was also impossible.

Jiang Zhen was thinking about his future these days, so he almost forgot about this matter. After hearing what Zheng Yi had to say and giving it a little thought, he agreed with Zheng Yi's approach.

Right then, he didn't want to get in touch with Shen Anxin at all, nor did he want to find out why he did it.

"As for these people from the Jiang family . . . there are many people who watch you now, so you can't do anything to them. But you can still move them to some other village, so they would live far away from you," Zheng Yi added.

Jiang Chengxiang and Jiang Chengwen were brought to him for interrogation before, but he could not hold them forever, and they needed to be released.

He initially wanted to send these people far away, but who knew if someone would make a fuss about them again? After thinking about it, he thought it would be best to find another village In He Cheng County to settle them down and keep a close eye on them.

"Just send them to Qiaotou Village," Jiang Zhen said. Aside from Hexi Village, he currently had the most number of people in Qiaotou Village, so naturally, he could keep an eye on the Jiang family if they go to Qiaotou Village.

"Then let's do it," Zheng Yi said. After settling this matter he immediately ordered someone to go and get things done.

After solving the follow-up problems caused by the sudden arrival of Zhou Maohe, Zheng Yi and Jiang Zhen talked about the construction of the Qingfeng House in Fucheng and mentioned the distilled wine that Jiang Zhen had previously made.

The Zheng family had a special brewery. After mentioning it to the craftsmen in the workshop, the craftsmen got busy and had already made some distilled wine.

"The distilled wine according to your method is really very mellow and tastes very good. But it takes a lot of wine to distill just one small jar. The food consumption for making this wine is really great." Zheng Yi thought of that wine and sighed lightly.

That wine was indeed a good wine, but if the method is spread, everyone will make it . . . It would consume too much grain.

There were still many people in Daqi who did not have enough to eat. If this wine spreads . . . the court will certainly issue a ban on alcohol.
