The ministers present suddenly looked down at the vendors opposite with complicated expressions.

Do the current rebels still need to come out and earn this hard-earned money? !

It's already like this, why are you still a rebel? !

Even Gu Ruizhou, who had just arrived here, was stunned for a long time with a complicated expression, and he didn't know which piece of news shocked him more.

Frightened, anxious, and suggestive eyes all looked at Gu Ruizhou at the same time. He immediately realized that the little guy should not have spoken just now.

Just like now——

【Uncle Gu, what's wrong? 】

The little guy pursed his lips tightly, his eyes were worried, and there was a hint of anxiety: [The accomplices of the traitors have already looked over here, this won't arouse their suspicion, right? ]

Although these people are unlikely to think in such an outrageous direction, but...

What if?

What if they are so cautious that they move overnight at the slightest sign of trouble? !

Jiang Yingcheng kept twisting her short, fleshy fingers, her face full of confusion. She looked up at her uncle Gu and hinted, "Uncle Qi, are you feeling unwell?"

Gu Ruizhou's scalp tightened, and he used up almost all his strength to suppress the urge to look back.

After realizing what was happening, a bold plan suddenly came to mind: "No, no, but you just came in and bought so much, how are you going to shop later?!"

——This is a great opportunity to quickly gather your fellow rebels!

He was so excited that his fingers were shaking slightly.

Having been stationed here for many years, his greatest wish is to catch all the rebels gathered here. On the one hand, he can seek peace for the people of Da Rui, and on the other hand...

It can be considered as a small compensation for his advice and suggestions in King Jing's camp for so many years.

However, after years of speculation, he never got any definite news, which made him somewhat skeptical about the news.

Unexpectedly, just by bringing this group of people to the market, he could lead to the arrest of so many accomplices of the rebels!

His breathing unconsciously became rapid!

The ministers watching also reacted immediately and seamlessly switched to fault finding mode -

"Well, what Shopkeeper Qi said makes sense..."

"This market is so big, how about...let's go shopping?"

"Didn't the young lady just say that she heard someone hawking something nearby? Or... should we go over there and take a look?"

The toy vendor was so angry that his eyes widened and there was a faint red glow in the corners of his eyes when he saw that a big order was about to be ruined by the innkeeper!

He shouted at Gu Ruizhou fiercely, "Whatever you want to do?! We are doing this business willingly. Why would you, an innkeeper, meddle in other people's business?"

The innkeeper often comes here to purchase goods. He is very talkative on weekdays, and almost all the vendors in the market are familiar with him.

But even so, this Qi guy can't possibly ruin his business!

He was only halfway through his calculations and hadn't even received the coins yet. If they turned around and left at this moment...

He couldn't agree to that!

The vendor winked at his accomplices around him, and soon several strong young men came over, each with a very unfriendly expression on their face.

"What are you doing?!"

"We are all businessmen. It's unkind to block someone's path to wealth, right?!"

"Boss Qi, we are all in the same business, and this is a little against the rules—"

Every word of condemnation was a naked threat, but Gu Ruizhou felt an excitement he had not felt in the past few years.

【Oh oh oh! ! 】

[Come, so many people have come!!]

The little guy's voice was filled with obvious excitement, and his eyes were flickering back and forth between the faces of the rebels. Gu Ruizhou even caught a glimpse of the little guy swallowing his saliva very subtly and uncontrollably.

[Both, both are second class merits!!!]

Gu Ruizhou didn’t know what the “Second Class Merit” was, but the ecstasy of his long-cherished wish coming true almost made him unable to suppress the expression on his face for a moment.

"Since these guests were brought here by Qi, it is my responsibility to ensure that they are not deceived." He clenched his fists tightly, sneered, and said, "Not only are the toys here crudely made, but they are even several times more expensive than the more exquisite ones next door. Isn't this a scam?!"

If this group of rebels really encountered a financial crisis and had to make a living in this way, then it is very likely that there are more accomplices hiding in this market!

Gu Ruizhou's gaze was particularly firm.

Fight!

The vendor at the toy stall laughed grimly, "Ha, with the quality of the food in your store, you have the nerve to accuse others of ripping you off?!"

Gu Ruizhou: “…”

The pretended arrogance suddenly froze, and Gu Ruizhou's whole body was visibly stiff for a moment.

The atmosphere became awkward for a moment.

Gu Ruizhou blushed slightly, and said with his neck stiff, "That's because you have no taste. This little guest really likes Qi's stewed food, and even said that he wants to open restaurants with Qi all over Da Rui!"

Gu Ruizhou unconsciously raised his voice when he spoke this, successfully making the atmosphere even more awkward.

Even the accomplices of the rebels who came from farther away after hearing the news stopped and looked at the little guy's face with complicated eyes.

I like ugly wooden toys and I love to eat weird and unpalatable dishes...

Everyone's eyes lit up immediately!

Isn't this the chosen one? !

Maybe... you can also visit their stall? !

Facing the various looks from the crowd, Jiang Yingcheng timidly looked around and picked out a "worker" who she thought was most suitable for this occasion.

She shrank back behind Lu Yao in a flash, trembling slightly as if she was frightened by this group of rebels, and her voice was pitiful: "Uncle Lu, they are so scary——"

The emotions switched seamlessly between excitement and fear, and Gu Ruizhou, who saw the little guy's acting skills for the first time, fell into self-doubt for a moment - did he see it wrong just now? !

[Uncle, please write down their faces quickly. We will go to their homes one by one later to vent our anger for Cheng Cheng! ]

[By then, with Uncle Lu’s keen sense, he will definitely be able to discover the trick! ! ]

Uncle Gu’s move was simply a stroke of genius!

The court officials who already had this intention held their breath and concentrated, their eyes "nervously" scanning the faces of the people who surrounded them one by one, trying to deeply engrave the faces of these people in their minds.

When the toy stall vendor saw his accomplices gathered around him, he became very excited!

"I advise you—"

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by a cold and low voice.

"What's the noise about?"

Jiang Yanchuan tapped the vendor's half-packed package twice with his slender fingers: "Are you still doing business?"
