"Brother Zhao!"

"Are you really from Jin Yiwei?"

Wu Xiao and others from Feiyan Village looked at Ning Fan with complicated expressions, and became silent after seeing him nod.

"So what?"

"So what if it's not?"

Ning Fan smiled, looked around, and said softly: "It is fate to meet all of you brothers!"

"How about it? Are you willing to accept the imperial court's offer?"

"this……"

There was a look of hesitation on Mu Zhuang's face, and Wu Xiao on the side sighed sadly: "Since the imperial court has set its sights on Wumei Mountain, there is naturally no place here."

"As Brother Zhao said, this is the time when heroes are born in large numbers. If you can establish some achievements, you are worthy of coming to this world!"

"Brothers, what I mean is that I will follow Master Yang and surrender to the imperial court."

"Um!"

Everyone nodded, and Ning Fan also chuckled and said: "Don't worry, when we arrive in Lingzhou City, life will only be happier than now!"

"Brother Zhao, are you here this time for the purpose of King Lu's rebellion?"

"good!"

"How dare you disobey your superiors?"

Ning Fan smiled. Among the five leaders, Liu Cheng, who was the most dexterous, held his hand and said to him: "Master, if our brothers return to the imperial court, please don't forget the brotherly love today!"

"nature!"

Ning Fan smiled and nodded, cupped his hands slightly, and looked around: "Brothers, the mission here is over. I have to return to Lingzhou to resume my duties. Let's meet in Lingzhou City!"

"good!"

Watching Ning Fan leave with Dian Wei and Xu Chu, the atmosphere in the entire hall became very calm.

After a long time, Wu Xiao, who seemed thick-headed and simple-minded, suddenly said: "Brothers, the death of the boss is really related to Brother Zhao..."

"shut up!"

"The eldest brother and the other eleven village leaders died at the hands of the despicable villain Lu Yuanshan!"

…

Lingzhou City.

The Lu family residence.

"Master, you are crazy. All the people and traders in Lingzhou City are crazy!"

"I'm so panicked that I can't even speak!"

"What's going on?"

Lu Qin looked at his usually steady right-hand man who was completely panicked at this moment, and his eyes suddenly froze.

"Look..."

"What's this?"

Seeing the old housekeeper suddenly handing over a small cloth bag, Lu Qin frowned slightly, but took it in his hand, spread it out and looked at it, his expression suddenly startled.

"Salt?"

"Yes, sir, this is the salt sold by the Cai Family Salt Store!"

"Fine salt is purer than green salt!"

As soon as the butler finished speaking, Lu Qin's expression suddenly changed and he quickly asked: "Where did the Cai family get such pure salt?"

"What's the selling price?"

"Six...sixty!"

"Sixty taels per fight?"

Lu Qin's brows furrowed, but the stone hanging in his heart fell to the ground: "How can ordinary people afford to eat!"

"No...no!"

"Sir, it's sixty cents per dou."

"What!"

After Lu Qin heard the report from the housekeeper, he immediately put on his long robe and personally led several servants towards Cai's Salt Walk.

People were coming and going on the street, just like going to a market. The passing vendors carrying poles and pushing unicycles seemed to be rushing in the same direction.

"What are they?"

"Go buy salt!"

"This...this..."

Lu Qin raised his arm and pointed at the crowded crowd. He was speechless for a long time.

"Master, let's go and have a look too!"

"The Cai family's salt shop seems to be specifically working against us. Wherever our Lu family's salt shop is, there must be a Cai family's shop!"

"Asshole!"

"The Cai family has become so bold because of their ambitions that they dare to go against my Lu family?"

Lu Qinqi's face was livid, he raised his feet and walked towards the nearest salt, but he had to stop after walking half a street.

"Master, stop pushing forward, you can't walk anymore!"

"The Cai family's shop is in front of you!"

"Where is our shop?"

"There it is!"

The old butler pointed in another direction, to an empty facade, not even a single person could be seen.

"snort!"

Lu Qin just groaned and walked towards his shop. But after walking in, he found that there was no doorman. Just as he was about to ask questions, he saw a man dressed as a servant with a grin on his face.

He walked in with a big bag.

"Hehe, I still got it."

"This is happening!"

While the boy was muttering, he saw two more figures in the store. One of them was actually the housekeeper of his house, and he was stunned for a moment.

"Sir...sir!"

"Hmph, what are you holding in your arms?"

"this……"

The boy's face suddenly tightened, but the old butler pulled him away. White salt spilled out, and the old butler suddenly turned pale!

"you!"

"Did you go buy Cai's salt?"

"Bastard thing!"

Lu Qin let out a long sigh, with a look of exhaustion on his face, waved his hand, and said softly: "That's all, let him go!"

"Go and prepare the frame of the bicycle, prepare a plate of gold ingots, and come with me!"

"yes!"

Lu Qin drove all the way to the county magistrate's mansion and was about to walk in when he was stopped by two tall and thick-mannered government officials.

"Who is coming?"

"This is an important place of the government, and no one can enter it!"

"You...you don't know me?"

"Exceptor Lu!"

"You know me and don't let me in!"

"I'm sorry, except for Mr. Lu, the county governor said that no one else is allowed to enter."

"How courageous are you? I'm just an idler, too?" Lu Qin held back his anger and glared angrily: "I'm an old acquaintance with the county governor, why don't you report it quickly!"

"Exceptor Lu!"

"The Sheriff has said that no one is allowed to enter without his permission, especially you!"

"The Sheriff's Mansion has no contact with your Lu family, and he has no personal relationship with Yuan Lu except you."
