Liu Guangshi was completely unreliable. King Jian Zhang Gou ordered the Tianxiong Army to send troops to quell the chaos in Daming Prefecture.

However, the Tianxiong Army refused to send troops for various reasons. There was only one real reason, that is, they were all afraid of death.

As a result, Gu Erye and other salt merchants, seven or eight hundred people, suddenly became the kings of Daming Mansion. Even the safety of King Jian Zhang Gou was in their control.

Mr. Gu led everyone to attack everywhere and rescued all his family members whom Liu Guangshi captured, and took back the wealth that he brought to Daming Mansion.

"The dozens of children we detained were 1,000 taels each. Let them redeem them." said Gu Erye.

Then he paused and continued, "Let the children from the Han family be released directly."

Thanks to the good idea Han Xianxue secretly gave him, otherwise people like Gu Erye would not be able to escape from the predicament.

"Second Master Gu, why don't we all be kings and domineering in Daming Mansion?" a salt merchant said happily.

"Become the king and dominate? Now the Tianxiong Army of Daming Mansion has not yet reacted, nor has there been a decent general leading it. Otherwise, more than 30,000 people would have swallowed us like fat sheep." Gu Erye said.

"Prepare the vehicle and leave Daming Mansion as soon as possible." Gu Erye continued.

"But where do we go after Daming Mansion?" another salt merchant said in embarrassment.

Now is a time of chaos, and it is not safe to go anywhere. Every family carries a lot of gold and silver, and whether it is the official army, the black bones, or the bandits will keep an eye on them.

"Let's go back to Yanshan." said Gu Erye.

The salt merchants present looked embarrassed when they heard Gu Erye say this.

"Who doesn't want to go back? But now I really have no face to go back." A salt merchant said ashamed.

The others were silent.

If they hadn't been asking for trouble by themselves, then they were still comfortable in Yanshan City and making a lot of money.

However, due to lack of greed and wanting to hold King Jian's thick legs and get promoted without delay, he ended up almost losing his life to Daming Mansion.

"This incident was caused by me. When I returned to Yanshan, I was willing to donate all my property to atone for my sins and then quietly support my old age in Yanshan. You donate half of all my property and then do a little business to support your family. Are you willing?" Gu Erye asked.

"Of course I'm willing. Now we may not even be able to save our lives when we go to other places. We can at least live safely when we return to Yanshan. I just don't know if Master Changshou can take us in." A salt merchant said hesitantly.

"It should be possible. If we are people in Yanshan who have appeared in Yanshan, the people in Yanshan will never have any bad thoughts again. Everyone will behave properly." Gu Erye is worthy of being an old fox, and he just hit the nail on the head when looking at the problem.

The salt merchants who were originally acting powerful in Yanshan City completely collapsed and could only be human. This is a warning to others.

Gu Erye immediately paid a lot of money to hire a idle man in Daming Mansion to open the city gate blocked by Liu Guangshi. In addition, he searched for carriages to place property and family in the entire Daming Mansion.

Those gentry families who took children as hostages also paid all their money honestly.

After everything was ready, the angry second-yester Gu led the salt merchant and their subordinates to ride on horseback and head straight for Zeng's mansion. The convoy carrying property and family was also followed by a convoy.

Gu Erye and his friends came to Daming Mansion to join King Jian to work hard for him. However, when Liu Guangshi took them as thieves, King Jian did not stand up and say a word.

This shows the status of these people in the minds of King Jian.

Mr. Gu and his friends were about to vent their anger before leaving.

"Second Master, rush into the old lady Zeng's mansion and pull King Jian out and beat him up or even kill him with one knife." A salt merchant said hatefully.

"If things could be so simple, it would not be our turn to do it. After all, the Great Chu State has been established for more than 100 years, and many people have not given up on it. If we do this, it will anger many people. When we scolded outside, King Jian dared not come out in the Zeng Mansion like a turtle, which made him lose face in front of the people of Daming Mansion. Isn't this also very good?" said Gu Erye.

"Yes, there are many civil and military officials who have retired from the court in Daming Mansion. We scolded King Jian in front of these people so that he couldn't raise his head. Let's see how he will be a human being in the future?" the salt merchant said with a chuckle.

"What kind of civil officials and military generals! I think they are just a bunch of waste! Look at how the Great Chu State made them mess with each other!" said another salt merchant.

Mr. Gu shook his head gently and said, "I think most of the ministers in the imperial court of the Great Chu State are not wasteful. Everyone calls Liu Guangshi a long-legged general. You see, his methods of dealing with us almost killed us! He is not wasteful at all! Han Xianxue, who drew pictures and made suggestions for me, is not wasteful! But so many capable people have made the Great Chu State be so incompetent but I can't figure it out."

"I think they are all too selfish!" a salt merchant interrupted.

His words made all the salt merchants bow their heads and say nothing. If they were not too selfish, they would not have reached this point today. Moreover, more than 30,000 salt citizens were defeated in Yanshan City, and some salt merchants' families were killed.

The Zeng Mansion received news early.

Old Mrs. Zeng ordered the door to be closed tightly and then he went back to the study to study with peace of mind.

Zhang Gou was restless in a secluded courtyard in Zeng's mansion. The only people he could trust were five guards brought from the capital's palace. There were very few people in the Zeng's mansion who could pick up weapons to resist.

Those lawless salt bandits were not afraid of Liu Guangshi's 30,000 official troops, and it was even easier to rush in and catch him.

Zhang Gou was really scared. If these salt merchants had more knowledge, they could catch him and take a detour to send him back to the capital to receive rewards from the emperor.

His brother, the current emperor of the Great Chu State, should be very concerned about seeing this scene.

"King Jian, we are leaving. We are here to say goodbye to you!"

"Why don't you come out to send us off? You are like your brother, just like you, you are all soft-boys!"

"Don't you like to kill donkeys? Our group of donkeys have arrived. King Jian doesn't come out and take a look for it for the last time?"

Bang! Bang!

The iron gun suddenly sounded twice in the sky, and Zhang Gou was so scared that he shivered all over and sat slowly on the chair, holding the table.

The shouting and cursing were everywhere, from east to west to south to north. Obviously, Gu Erye and his friends were circling around Zeng's mansion while shouting and cursing.

In Daming Mansion, there was no sound except the shouts and scolds from Gu Erye and others. It seemed that everyone else was listening.

Half an hour later, the shouting and scolding finally stopped. What came was the sound of the wheels falling from afar crushing the ground.
