Liu Ruyu received Liu Daxia's advice and today he found an opportunity to visit Zhao Ce's house.

During the Chinese New Year, the two families had a little unhappy, which caused him to never visit Zhao Ce's house after returning to Beijing.

Although he is older and older than Zhao Ce, Zhao Ce is his life-saving benefactor.

Originally, I should have visited the door after returning to Beijing.

Last time I came here, I was worried that the two of them had different camps and did not enter.

Now this matter has been settled temporarily, and the imperial court has temporarily stopped the civil servants because of the spring flood and spring plowing.

After Liu Ruyu threw the greeting letter, he stood at the door with a gift in his arms.

As an imperial official, he did not bring any servants or entourage when he went out.

When Zhao Ce saw him, he saw Liu Ruyu wearing ordinary clothes and holding two gifts in his hand.

"Mr. Liu."

Zhao Ce took the lead in saying hello and asked Xu Fang next to him to take the gift.

Liu Ruyu handed it over and said with a smile: "Brother Lin, today I will come to bother you."

Zhao Ce asked him to sit down and had someone come to tea.

Liu Ruyu asked, "Why didn't you see your wife?"

"I am happy and sleepy. I feel sleepy shortly after using the meal and I take a nap in the room."

When Liu Ruyu heard this, she sighed: "When I met you in Gaozhou Prefecture before, Mrs. Yongxibo subdued a criminal."

"During the Chinese New Year, I didn't see any changes in her appearance."

"But I don't want to have been happy for a while."

Liu Ruyu remembered how Su Caier looked during the Chinese New Year, and she really couldn't tell that she was happy.

When we meet again this time, Zhao Ce said that he had been happy for six or seven months.

Liu Ruyu remembered his days in Gaozhou Prefecture, and couldn't help but talk about his sexual desire.

After catching Zhao Ce and recalling the past, he talked about what happened after Zhao Ce and others left.

Liu Ruyu said: "After your family left the local area, I will continue to rectify the local salt administration."

"Now the local salt prices have finally returned to normal."

Zhao Ce nodded and said, "Mr. Liu is a good official who does practical things and is also a blessing for the people of our place."

Liu Ruyu shook his head and said, "Although the salt price has begun to recover, the salt that was transported away privately still cannot be recovered."

"The court suffered a lot of losses in vain, and I can't do anything about it."

Zhao Ce said curiously: "Is it the account book not written clearly?"

"So that the lost salt cannot be found out where it goes?"

Liu Ruyu said with a bad face: "No."

"Actually, I found it, but unfortunately I can't do anything."

"After returning to the capital, I have submitted a report to the court for this matter, but Your Majesty has not handled it yet."

In fact, it is likely that I won't deal with it...

Liu Ruyu was naturally not patrolling Gaozhou Prefecture in the local area.

It’s just that the salt price in Gaozhou Prefecture is too outrageous, so he checked it for so long.

Before he passed, he actually heard some wind.

Zhao Ce asked: "Is it difficult for the person involved to deal with?"

Liu Ruyu nodded.

The salt fields in the Ming Dynasty, especially in the Lianghuai area, were even more serious in the salt fields with the highest output.

It’s just that the salt yield in those places is high, which is not so easy to cause salt shortage.

But if the salt production speed cannot keep up with a small salt field, the salt price will soon have problems.

And those who can risk salt farms and salt merchants to deliver salt privately are naturally not ordinary people.

Zhao Ce had heard Liu Ruyu say before that the salt was probably sent north and stocked up.

However, Zhao Ce did not ask in detail who to give to.

Now looking at Liu Ruyu's face, Zhao Ce suddenly had a guess?

"Is the person behind this salt hoarding is a royal relative?"

Liu Ruyu was not surprised that Zhao Ce could guess it well.

He whispered: "It's the uncle of the current dynasty."

"After I returned to Beijing, I investigated it privately."

"In order to win over the uncle, salt merchants from all over the Ming Dynasty brought salt to privately."

"The salt merchants in the Lianghuai region alone sent more than hundreds of thousands of salt!"

"In addition to the salt merchants in other regions, I estimate that the two uncles must have millions of stolen salt!"

The scent is divided into small scent and large scent, small scent scent and 400 scent

The average price of the first inlet is 300 kilograms, which is equivalent to six cents and four cents of silver, and another tax of three taels of silver.

Millions of citations...

Even if the money sold is not calculated only by the cost price, it is converted into silver...

Zhao Ce couldn't help but exclaim in his heart, "Good guy!"

These two uncles sit in the capital and don’t have to do anything, and the money they are respected can kill them!

Not to mention the people of the Ming Dynasty, I don’t know how many years the soldiers in the frontier have eaten!

After Liu Ruyu finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Ce's thoughtful face and added: "Forget it, you don't have to pay attention to this matter."

"Your Majesty will decide."

I haven't seen Zhao Ce for a while, and as soon as Liu Ruyu met, he couldn't help but start talking.

However, he came to the door today, and in addition to chatting about these things, there were more important things.

"By the way, the autumn exam is coming, how are you preparing?"

"I am still waiting for the Ministry of Personnel to arrange positions during this period, and I am very free."

"If you have any questions about your studies, I can discuss it with you."

Liu Ruyu did not mention what happened at his family before, but instead talked to Zhao Ce's usual old friend.

He is a Jinshi of two rankings, and he is more than enough to be Zhao Ce's husband.

But the words used are discussed together.

Zhao Cexin thought this was just right.

Recently, he has taken many questions and done a lot of scriptures.

I originally thought of bringing some copies next time to ask Yang Shousui to help me take a look.

Now that there is a voluntary coolie in front of him, how can you not use it?

Zhao Ce nodded and said, "I have indeed written a lot of scriptures recently, so please help me with my opinion."

When Liu Ruyu heard that Zhao Ce did want his own help, he was so happy that he had to go into the study with Zhao Ce.

"Although the literary style of Northern Zhili is not as good as that of Southern Zhili, it is surrounded by imperial examination counties because of its Imperial College."

"So the difficulty of participating in the provincial examination this time will be much more difficult than if you participated in the original state prefecture."

"But you don't have to worry. I will help you find out as much as possible when the examiner goes."

"Although it may not be accurate until your Majesty's assignment, it's better than reading without any goal."

The two talked about Zhao Ce’s homework. After a few steps, a shout suddenly came from the other side.

"master!"

It was the voice of the concierge Lao Zhang.

Zhao Ce turned around and saw a bunch of people standing behind Lao Zhang.

"Master, Master Zhu and Master Zhu are here."

Liu Ruyu said: "Brother Linzhi still has guests at home today?"

"Then I'll go to your study first..."

He said, turning his head to look at the person coming.

After seeing this, he forgot the second half of the words before he finished speaking.

Mr. Zhu, Mr. Zhu?

Liu Ruyu took a deep breath.
