Meng Yunzheng was just about to give Lu Wu some instructions when he saw a few laborers walking towards him.
They appeared a bit reserved, but their faces had a subtle look of expectation and excitement.
The leader, a very thin man with a slightly hunched back, nervously asked Meng Yunzheng, "Young Master Meng, what, what can we do?"
"Yes, Young Master Meng, we can help too. We may not have other skills, but we are strong."
"Yes, yes, we're very good at working."
Initially, they were apprehensive and bewildered, but after Xia Yi revealed his identity, they felt much more at ease. These people were from the imperial court, which meant they were not bad.
Yet they soon started to worry. They were different from Old Master Yang and the others. Although they were locked in cells, they were still helping the black market. Moreover, when Old Master Yang and Lu Wu took action earlier, they didn't join in to help.
