A merchant who had a good relations with Hong Niu spoke, completely absolving him of the blame of betraying the Empire.
While the Merchants were engaging in flattery and trying to put themselves in Ikasa's good graces, Zhang Chun snorted. He looked with contempt at the hypocritic bastards who were flattering him just a few minutes ago and promised to stand up for the Empire.
Zhang Chun sneered and coldly spoke the words that sent shivers down the backs of these merchants.
"Should I report all your words to Governor Hao? Would you like to see how he reacts to your claims when I tell him that you are colluding with a Holy Wood Empire Merchant to tarnish the image of Furnace Fire Empire?"
