"Miss Deer..."
Qian Zhaode looked at Lu You with aggrieved eyes, but before he could finish his words, Lu You held the short blade and moved forward a few more times.
"If we follow your rules, I'll grab half of it. Will you give it to me?"
Looking at Lu You's calm eyes, Qian Zhaode thought for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and nodded.
"We are all family, so we should spend money together. Find a sack and I will give you some money now!"
As he spoke, Qian Zhaode placed his sack on the carriage and prepared to "divide the spoils".
But seeing this scene, Lu You shook his head again.
"I'm not just talking about you, the sack, I'm talking about all of you, the sacks!"
Hearing Lu You's words, the sturdy men in hemp clothes who were surrounding the fire immediately came over with knives in hand.
"You little bitch..."
Bang! !
A brick was thrown and hit the leading man directly in the face.
Everyone was shocked, but before they could react, they saw Lu You had already flashed in front of the fallen man.
The big man let out a howl of pain as his knife came down.
Lu You stood up, holding a bloody ear with a dagger.
"You better understand the situation now. It's not that you surrounded me."
"It's me alone who's targeting you!"
"Now, everyone carrying sacks, line up and come to pay. If anyone dares to fail to pay even a penny, I will not be so easy to talk to!"
After saying this, Lu You flicked his wrist and threw the ear on the tip of the knife directly into the fire.
Behind Lu You, Qian Zhaode held the hilt of the knife tightly with his right hand, and only let out a sigh of relief after a few breaths.
"Do as Miss Lu says!"
Upon hearing Qian Zhaode's order, several constables started to shout and scold.
Although those walking men were extremely strong, they were usually honest and well-behaved people. They had long been afraid of being bullied by these constables. When they heard the scolding, how could they dare to resist?
Then a strange scene appeared.
Next to the campfire, a group of strong men armed with swords began to line up in front of the carriage.
Lu Yi and others turned directly into accountants, quickly counting the silver and money in their sacks. After each counting, they took out half and threw it on the carriage.
"Be careful, only take the silver and give them copper coins, otherwise it will be too heavy to hold."
Lu You sat on the car board and reminded everyone.
Soon, the silver coins on the cart were piled up high, and Lu Yi handed the last sack back to Qian Zhaode.
"Second sister, the order is ready. The total is one hundred and ninety-eight taels, three cents and four coins!"
Upon hearing this, Lu You directly handed the four copper coins to Qian Zhaode.
"We are all friends, I don't want this change, just treat it as treating the brothers to tea."

"Thank you Miss Deer!"
Qian Zhaode held four copper coins in his hand and saluted.
"If Miss Lu has nothing else to do, we won't disturb your rest..."
"Wait a minute!" Seeing Qian Zhaode was about to leave, Lu You hurriedly shouted, "You were the one who distributed those knives, right? Hand over the knives!"
When Qian Zhaode heard Lu You's words, his eyes widened immediately.
"No... Miss Lu, you are being unreasonable, aren't you? These knives belong to our brothers..."
Snapped! !
Lu You raised his hand and slapped Qian Zhaode on the forehead.
"Is that knife yours? You are a constable, don't you know the laws of the Wu Dynasty? Do they have a knife register?"
Um? ?
Qian Zhaode looked at Lu You with a confused face, but he was already cursing him in his heart.
Talking about military law at this time?
They don't have a knife license, but you don't have one either?
Isn't this pure bullying?
Just when Qian Zhaode was feeling indignant, Lu You grabbed him by the collar.
"The people gathered here shouldn't be all the weapons you've distributed, right?"
"I just wanted the knives in their hands, not the bows and crossbows you hid. You should thank me."
"With a sharp blade in hand, the desire to kill arises naturally. Nearly ten thousand people cannot enter the city and have become refugees here. How long do you think Wu Lu can suppress these people?"
"There are only about a dozen of you left in our Qingshi City constables."
"But you have issued dozens of swords. Do you think that after a long time, these people will follow you as lackeys, or will they chop you with swords and then go their own way?"
"Look at where the footmen are standing, and use your dog brains!"
Lu You whispered in Qian Zhaode's ear, then pushed him away.
Qian Zhaode steadied himself and turned to look at his men not far away, only to see that there seemed to be a transparent wall separating the marchers and the constables, and the two groups naturally stood apart.
Thinking back to what Lu You had just said, Qian Zhaode's heart sank. Then, without thinking, he shouted loudly to those pedestrians.
"You guys, put all the knives in the car! Quickly!!"
Qian Zhaode's shout immediately aroused the vigilance of the footmen, and the leader of the footmen even stood up directly.
"Captain Qian, we brothers followed you to save our lives, but if you bully our own people like this, we brothers will not accept it!"
Following the words of the leader of the group, the other groups of people also raised their weapons and started shouting loudly.
"Yes! We refuse to accept!"
"Everyone has a knife in their hands, why should we listen to her?"
"That's right, at worst I can just fight her..."
Lu You turned to look at Qian Zhaode: "Do you need my help?"
Qian Zhaode said nothing upon hearing this, but walked straight towards the leader with his official sword in hand.
"Show me your sword book!"
The leading footman was stunned when he heard this: "Knife record? Captain Qian, you must have been beaten silly by that little bitch, right? You gave us this knife, where did the knife record come from?"
"If you don't have a sword, you have to hand it over. This is the martial law. Those who resist and disrespect others can be killed!" Qian Zhaode said coldly: "I'm telling you one last time, hand over your sword!"
Upon hearing this, the footman turned around and looked at his brothers who were also footmen behind him, then turned back and looked at Qian Zhaode with a sneer.
"Then what if I don't pay?"
Qian Zhaode placed his right hand on the handle of the official sword, but swung his left hand violently.
A cold light flashed, and the big man dropped the long sword he had raised. He looked at Qian Zhaode with disbelief.
A gurgling sound of bubbles was heard, and the big man grasped his neck with both hands, and blood continued to flow out through his fingers.
The sounds of swords being drawn were heard, and several constables drew their swords and stood beside Qian Zhaode.
Qian Zhaode held the short blade in his left hand and suddenly drew out his official sword with his right hand, pointing it directly at the group of pedestrians.
"Everyone, put down your swords! Anyone who disobeys will be killed!"
