Liu Mo adjusted his breathing, took a step forward, and shouted sternly, "Second Master, do you also want to rebel?"
"Boy, stop pretending like that." The second master said, "I have sent people to inquire about it a long time ago. You are just a ninth-grade official of the Salt Transportation Department, and you still dare to pretend in front of us!
Everyone, my salt gang has been managing the salt channel for decades. Even the eldest prince has tacitly approved of this.
The party struggle in the Great Xia court led to the deaths of the third leader of the Salt Gang and five hundred of his disciples. All this was caused by this kid.
Here, gang leaders and leaders, I suggest that this person be taken down immediately and cut into pieces to avenge my dead brother! "
Good guy, it would be a pity not to become an official if you are so eloquent.
Such reasonable rhetoric indeed worked.
When everyone present heard this, they could see the behavior of the grasshopper at a glance. Everyone had a fierce look in their eyes, fearing that they would tear Liu Mo into pieces in the next second!
Liu Mo scoffed at your mere tricks. I will let you know what human nature is right away!
"I don't want to waste words with you bastard!" Liu Mo snorted coldly, "As everyone knows, I, Liu Mo, am just a scholar from a poor family, and the son-in-law of the Lin family in Linyang City.
Fortunately, the ancestor's good deeds were appreciated by the Sixth Prince. Without any fame, he was promoted to the rank of Ninth Grade Salt Transport Ambassador of the Salt Transport Department.
It's up to you, the second master, to decide whether the third master and Su Zhongle were plotting against each other and executed, or whether Liu Mo, the third master, conspired to murder her through despicable means. In short, five thousand Daxia elite soldiers under General Zhu are in Rongcheng.
The second leader also mentioned just now that the Great Xia court was fighting among factions. Hum, do you want to become a victim of party strife? "
I'm too lazy to chirp with you. The Sixth Prince's elite troops are in Rongcheng. In front of their absolute strength, they won't play any bells and whistles with you! Anyone who dares to resist will be shot without mercy!
After all, this is a party struggle, so of course people will die!
"You stinky boy, you are so sharp-tongued!" The second leader became angry and said, "Gang leader, kill him quickly."
Again? Liu Mo's face darkened, "Everyone in charge, I, Liu Mo, hereby guarantee that as long as the head of the second leader falls to the ground, you will definitely be in peace!"
"Is this true?" one of the leaders asked excitedly.
"Never break your promise!" Liu Mo smiled evilly.
"Ha, second boss, you are seeking your own death and you can't blame anyone else!"
"What are you going to do?" The second master panicked.
But before he could finish his words, with a sharp slash, the nearest Salt Gang disciple slashed his single sword into the shoulder of the second master.
The second master's single sword slipped from his weak hand, leaving his bloody shoulder behind.
"ah…"
"Stop!" Gong Changyi shouted after being silent for a long time.
But his shout came too late. Another leader of the Salt Gang pulled out a dagger from his waist and held it against the second leader's chin. His smile was full of apology. "Second Master, for the sake of all brothers, I have to sacrifice you!"
As he spoke, the dagger slit the second master's throat. The latter groaned a few times and died on the spot.
"What are you all doing!" Palace Chief Yi said angrily.
"Gang leader, it's the second leader who is seeking death on his own!"
"You..." Gong Changyi hesitated, "Liu Mo..." He stretched out his finger and pointed at Liu Mo.
Liu Mo shrugged, pretending to be innocent.
"Bring the second master out." Gong Changyi's face turned livid, "Mr. Liu, no, Mr. Liu, can we talk alone?"
"Just what I wanted!" Liu Mo said with a smile.
~~~
Leave the Salt Gang hall and come to the secret room belonging to the Salt Gang leader.
Gong Changyi slumped down on the chair and stared at Liu Mo helplessly, unable to say a word for a long time.
Liu Mo walked across the room calmly, walked to the table, and picked up the wine bottle on the table to pour wine.
While drinking, he asked, "Gong Gang Leader, please tell me if you have anything to do. General Zhu is still waiting for my return."
Gong Changyi's face turned pale, "People who are clear don't tell secrets. Mr. Liu, what do you want?"
"Finally let's get to the point," Liu Mo took a sip of wine, "What do you want? It's very simple. First, the Salt Gang will be disbanded!"
"What?" Gong Changyi was shocked. "Do you know what you are talking about? The Salt Gang has disciples all over Daxia. Didn't you disband them just because you said they should?"
"Then just wait to be eliminated!" Liu Mo spread his hands. "Gong Gang Leader, people outside are idiots, but you are a smart person. You know best whether I, Liu Mo, am being alarmist.
If Daxia had not waited for the approval of His Majesty and the Ministry of War with the troops on nine sides and ten fortresses of Great Xia, would the Sixth Prince have been able to move? "
Hearing this, the palace chief's face turned pale, and the last straw in his heart was gone. "Da Xia Chaoting, do you really want to kill all our salt gangs? Are you so disrespectful of the lives of the people?"
"If I ignored it, I wouldn't have tolerated your salt gang until now." Liu Mo told him, "The reason why the salt gang exists is that the people cannot afford expensive salt. In the final analysis, it is all the fault of private salt dealers.
Nowadays, the new salt developed by me, Liu Mo, is more delicious than the refined salt eaten by dignitaries. You, Gang Leader, also know the price. "
Gong Changyi looked incredulous, "Is your new salt available to all of Daxia?"
"If this were not the case, the Daxia court would not have such great determination!"
"So, you already knew the news when you came to the Salt Gang last time? But why didn't you tell me?"
Liu Mo snorted, "I just guessed a few things," he returned, "One more thing, some things cannot be explained too clearly."
The Great Xia court wants to clean up the Salt Gang and leave it to Earth. It can be said to be a state secret. How dare I say it?
Gong Changyi sighed, "When the incident reaches this point, someone in my palace is afraid that he will die," he said, "May I ask Mr. Liu, what will happen to the tens of thousands of brothers in the Salt Gang?"
oh? At this time, Gong Changyi is still thinking about his subordinates, and he can be regarded as a caring and righteous person.
"Just now in the Salt Gang Hall, I made it clear that if you work for me in the future, you can save your life!" Liu Mo replied.
"you…"
"Yes, although my new salt can supply the whole of Daxia. However, whether it is selling the new salt or transporting it on official roads, people are needed. The disciples of the Salt Gang are not all evil people. Master Huang and the Sixth Prince know this! "
"Is this true?"
Liu Mo nodded firmly.
Seeing this, Gong Changyi felt relieved, but the next second he frowned, "Master Liu, can you control the tens of thousands of disciples of my Salt Gang?"
"Without any real talent or learning, I, Liu Mo, would not dare to boast so loudly!"
"Hahaha, Mr. Liu, someone in my palace really underestimates you!" Gong Changyi laughed.
With that said, he took off the jade ring finger from his hand and handed it to Liu Mo.
"This is?"
"Mr. Liu, this finger ring is something passed down by the previous leaders of our Salt Gang. Now I will hand it over to you." Gong Changyi said, "From now on, you will be the leader of the Salt Gang. This is the only thing Gong can help you with. of!"
Although he was a little surprised, Liu Mo quickly accepted it, "Thank you very much, Gang Leader Gong! However, there is one more thing Liu needs to discuss with you!"
"Oh? What's the matter!"
"Please betroth Miss Gong to me!"
"What…"
