Jiang Yimian and the other person exchanged a glance and were about to speak when a commotion broke out outside.
"Hey, what are you doing? Didn't we agree that we would decide what to do with the gunpowder? You're just robbing us! Put it down, put it down!"
Lin Yan'an watched the group of guards carrying away boxes of gunpowder, and he was furious. He wanted to step forward to stop them, but the guards blocked his way and he couldn't move.
Wang San, Liu'er, and the other Zhou family servants suffered the same fate.

As for Lin Yan'an and the others, they were locked in the side courtyard.
Seeing the door close again, Jiang Yimian silently said, "Wu'e should have received the news by now."
