Sun Ergou's head lowered, and he shut up again and stopped talking, but his heart had already set off a storm.

Because he found that in front of this teenager who seemed to be younger than himself, he seemed to have become a transparent person, and there was no way to hide everything.

He was completely seen through by him.

Therefore, he could only lower his head again and close his mouth tightly to hide the fear in his heart.

"These clothes and shoes are all your brother's, right?"

Han Cheng shifted his hand behind his back to the front, opened the package in his hand, and took out the old clothes full of patches and the straw sandals with holes.

"Your family is also very poor, your brother should have suffered a lot in order to bring you up, right?"

Sun Ergou's head was raised again, and a pair of eyes stared closely at the straw sandals and clothes that Han Cheng was holding in his hand, and tears couldn't help but flow down.

"I, I can't say anything, I can't say anything, I said brother, brother, they all, they will die, die...... Please, kill me, kill me......"

After seeing these two things and listening to Han Cheng's words, Sun Ergou's emotions finally got out of control again.

After seeing Sun Ergou's reaction, Han Cheng had basically confirmed his guess.

"I'm not going to kill you, and it's useless to kill you."

Han Cheng, who was holding his clothes and shoes, shook his head and said.

"Please, let me die! Kill me! Kill me! Otherwise, my brother, they will all die, they will all die......"

Sun Ergou, who was out of control, begged Han Cheng.

"I'm not going to kill you."

Han Cheng shook his head again.

Sun Ergou had a look of despair in his eyes.

"But I can claim that you're dead, and as long as you don't show up in front of people you know and don't let people see your whereabouts, then people will really think you're dead."

Han Cheng's voice continued to sound, and the desperate Sun Ergou had an unbelievable look in his eyes, and there was a strong surprise and hope in the disbelief.

At most, it is not because they can survive, but because they can survive because of their brothers.

"Why do this to me? I—I'm going to burn the salt works. ”

Sun Ergou looked at Han Cheng with a puzzled inquiry, he really couldn't understand why Han Cheng did this.

Han Cheng smiled, found a wooden pier to sit down, and pointed at Sun Ergou's chest on the left side: "Because I found that you still have a conscience."

To be honest, for the sake of my brother and other family members, I don't hesitate to exchange my life for it, this kind of behavior, I admire, really.

You are also a poor person who has been forced by others to have no choice, and in this battle, you and your family are all victims. ”

"But, but I'm going to burn the salt works......"

Sun Ergou was silent for a while, and then spoke up.

Han Cheng smiled again: "What they asked you to burn shouldn't be a warehouse with almost nothing, right?" It should be a dormitory or something, right? ”

This is not Han Cheng's clever calculation, but because since the other party made a move and arranged for someone to set fire to the salt farm, he naturally wanted to deal a blow to his side as much as possible.

Then burning down the dormitory where many people live and burning a lot of people to death at once is undoubtedly the most effective.

Once so many people died on his side at once, and there was such a big safety accident, the matter of salt production had to be temporarily stopped.

Even if Li Jing used all kinds of connections and used all kinds of tricks to suppress things, it would be impossible for the salt field to make salt in a short time.

There is such a big thing, so many people have died, it must be difficult to recruit workers again, and the other party will guide public opinion a little, saying that this is a punishment from heaven or something, and the means are more clever, take this opportunity to detain all the pots on Li Jing, and then walk around on it, Li Jing has a great chance that he will be transferred out of Mayi.

It is not impossible to be dismissed from office and held accountable.

Burning down the storehouse where there is nothing to store is not much of a loss for the saltworks, at most it is the loss of a house, but it can still be used as a storehouse for a rest and rest.

The impact won't be too great, at most it's just an ordinary water walk.

"Your conscience did not let you do such a hurtful and unconscionable thing, but it also saved you and your family.

Do you think that this time you really did what those people said and burned down the dormitory where everyone lived, and those people would let your brother and them go?

No, things will definitely be very troublesome at that time, and they will only choose to kill people for the sake of secrecy. ”

Han Cheng looked at Sun Ergou and said.

Sun Ergou's body shook.

"No, it won't! They won't do it! They said yes......"

Sun Ergou became excited, and raised some of his voice, as if he was arguing with Han Cheng, but more like convincing himself, but he couldn't finish his words.

At this moment, he had already understood that it was very likely that the matter would be as the young man who was called Cheng Ge'er said, and his brother and others would be killed by that person and used to kill him.

That person has never seen himself and others in his eyes at all, and has always been like looking at ants, so why care about the promise to an ant?

"Brother Cheng, I, I'll tell you everything I know, don't, don't tell others......"

After a moment of silence, Sun Ergou gritted his teeth and said......

After a while, Han Cheng came out of the warehouse and sniffed.

Things were not much different from what he thought before, Sun Ergou didn't know the identity of the other party, and he didn't know anything about the deeper calculations behind it.

only knew that if he could do what the other party said, his brother and sister-in-law would be able to live, otherwise they would all die.

"Let the big guy start making salt as soon as possible after eating, this matter is the most important at this time, Sun Ergou's matter is not too big, I will deal with it."

After Han Cheng came out of the warehouse, he instructed everyone, with some understatement.

Driven by his emotions, these people in the salt field also felt relieved, and they paid less attention to this matter, so they immediately started to eat according to Han Cheng's instructions, and after eating, they quickly entered the state of salt making.

"Good guts!"

On the way from the county seat of Mayi to the Qingque Salt Farm, Li Jing and Wei Cheng met the people who got up early in the morning and were arranged by Han Cheng to deliver a letter to the county seat.

After hearing that there was a small snack last night and wanted to burn the salt field, Wei Cheng couldn't help but scold.

Although he is in charge of the salt field with Han Cheng, he also serves as the Hu Cao of Mayi County to join the army, and he has a lot of things to be busy.

At least until the salt famine was over, he would have been obsessed with it like this.

When I heard about this at this time, I naturally couldn't help but feel angry.

Although the messenger said that the arson was going to be set on the fire, he never said who had instructed it, but he immediately thought of who had done it.

This is as obvious as lice on a bald man's head.

Although Li Jing, who was riding on the horse, did not speak, his face was completely gloomy.

"Let's go to the salt works!"

After listening to what the messenger had to say, he was silent for a while, and then spoke out loud, with something suppressed in his calm voice.

The group quickened the pace of their march......
