Bab 276: It's Lonely at the Top

"Deliberately? Why do you say that?"

Shen Yao chuckled. "I've met Official Ji a few times before. His words and actions are extremely elegant. He doesn't seem like someone who has been immersed in the bureaucracy for many years. If I'm not wrong, this Official Ji of Dingyuan County is probably from an extraordinary background. There's probably another reason why he came to Dingyuan County to be a county magistrate."

"Moreover, after Official Ji came to Dingyuan County, he did two major things. Firstly, he reduced taxes. Whether it was the merchants who ran shops in the county or the commoners, they were extremely grateful. Secondly, he eliminated brothels. His actions must have touched some unspeakable benefits of power."

"In that case, the master behind Wind and Moon Restaurant wants to declare war on Official Ji?" Ji Zhao understood Shen Yao's words and asked curiously.
