"Hehe, I must have amused you, Lord. Whenever we get down to business, I just feel uncomfortable if I'm not clean."
Zheng Fan chuckled and said, "I understand."
Fan Zhengwen glanced at Weng Canghai and said:
"Lord, this is Weng Canghai, who is my tutor."
Weng Canghai stood up and continued, "I am the advisor of Mr. Fan's household."
Zheng Fan nodded again, indicating that he understood.
In fact, all three of them were straightforward individuals, and from the very beginning, their meeting exuded a sense of forthrightness.
After a brief introduction, Weng Canghai moved to the center, taking a map from his sleeve, which had some additional annotations.
Weng Canghai crouched down and spread the map on the ground. He then stood up, fetched a few teacups to hold the map in place, pushed aside some hair that fell across his face, and said:
"Lord, here is Mong Mountain, here is Xiayong, here, here, here, and here—this entire large area is the fiefdom of the Qu Clan."
