Magistrate Gu Jinli happily received the letter like a treasure and said, "Thank you, Master Ouyang and Elder Ouyang, for your help."
If it weren't for the Ouyang family's involvement, as a fourth-rank magistrate, dealing with the Ying Family, Zongzheng Family, or even Shen Si would be impossible for him.
Magistrate Gu handed the letter to County Magistrate Zheng, knowing he was a collateral branch of the Zheng Family.
After reading it, County Magistrate Zheng's eyes lit up, and he exclaimed, "Great! The citizens of Great Chu are indeed fortunate. Not only do they have the Emperor's assistance, but also silver donations from various families in the Capital. The future will definitely be better."
Ah, phew!
Young Master Dou almost rolled his eyes. You really know how to talk, praising without mentioning anything else. You've taken flattery to a new level.
Master Ouyang glanced at Young Master Dou, giving him a look that suggested, "You should learn from County Magistrate Zheng."
