In the dark night, Wang Er hugged Liu Ying tightly and stepped out of the palace gate. Their eyes met, and Zhao Chengchu's figure gradually appeared in the dark night.

"Thank you!" Wang Er's voice was low and firm.

"My brothers, eldest brother, will definitely not sit idly by!" Zhao Chengchu's words were full of sincere brotherhood. He gently patted Wang Er and Liu Ying on the shoulders and led them back to the inn.

In the inn, Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes fell lightly on Wang Er and Liu Ying. "You stay here to rest, and take her away when she recovers!" His tone was calm and decisive.

Wang Er nodded silently, hugged Liu Ying tightly and turned to leave. His steps were firm and his back was resolute, highlighting his tenacity and responsibility.

The next morning, the sun shone on the faces of the people. However, they found that the prices in various salt shops suddenly increased sharply, and their faces turned pale. The price of salt was almost close to the price of food, which made many people feel miserable.

Go back, shaking his head in despair.

However, there were still people who showed hesitation and finally gritted their teeth and bought some salt, their faces full of pain. Their actions seemed to ignite everyone's desire to buy, and soon all the salt shops were robbed.

Many people beat their chests regretfully when they saw the words "Sold Out" hanging in front of the shops. However, those who bought the salt felt like they had gotten a big deal, with smiles on their faces, as if they had won a major victory.

Zhu Yuanzhang's men were sent out one after another, and until evening, the inn was full of fierceness.

Zhao Chengchu stood at the door, staring at the distant sky.

Soon, a motorcade slowly appeared in sight. Seeing this, Zhao Chengchu immediately led people to rush over.

There were faint white marks on the bluestone slabs on the ground, and the carriage was filled with linen sacks.

If you look carefully, you will find some white and yellowish particles falling from the carriage on the wheels.

After the leader saw Zhao Chengchu, he hurriedly greeted him.

"General Zhao, the gang leader asked me to say hello to you!"

The visitor was a small leader of the Cao Gang, and he was very excited to receive the task of transporting salt this time.

Since his own power was annexed by Gang Leader Bai, Zhao Chengchu knew that Brother Bai must have some help behind his back. Therefore, when he received this task, he took out all the stolen official salt he had secretly hidden in exchange for

Chance.

Zhao Chengchu asked Luo Rucai's people to take the salt from the carriage back, then looked at the person in front of him and asked calmly: "Who are you?"

"Back to the general, young Luo Rucai was originally a water bandit, but now he officially joined the Cao Gang and served as a deacon." Luo Rucai answered respectfully.

"I heard that you contributed a lot of salt this time. I will reward you well." Zhao Chengchu said and handed his sword to Luo Rucai.

Luo Rucai's face was full of excitement, and he took Zhao Chengchu's saber with trembling hands, then knelt down on one knee and said in a deep voice: "I will go through fire and water for you, and I will do so without hesitation!"

"You can go back after a few days of rest." Zhao Chengchu warned, "After all, the Cao Gang needs talents like Brother Luo."

"Yes!" Luo Rucai turned around and left with the others, holding the knife in his hand and his face full of respect.

Zhu Yuanzhang walked out of the darkness and said calmly: "You have grown up a lot."

"It's all thanks to my elder brother's good teachings." Zhao Chengchu's face returned to his harmless look.

Looking at Zhao Chengchu's smiling face, Zhu Yuanzhang smiled deeply, took a deep look at him and said: "Go down and prepare, remember that we are rebels!"

Zhao Chengchu bowed and said: "Understood!"

After Zhu Yuanzhang left, Zhao Chengchu pondered Zhu Yuanzhang's words. He recalled Zhu Yuanzhang's voice and nodded secretly while standing on the army.
