Even if it's one-tenth.
One-tenth of two thousand taels is also two hundred taels!
To tell the truth.
For Fang Zheng, two hundred taels is nothing, but for ordinary wealthy households and rich merchants, they might not be able to produce that much silver.
Even Chief Luo and the others showed a change in their expressions.
They also have a customary ratio, which is that if the County Magistrate offers a certain amount of salary, the subordinates will offer a corresponding amount of salary.
A year?
What a joke!
"Lord."
The person who seemed to be acting as a pawn spoke again:
"I am willing to offer four hundred taels!"
"Good." Lord Yan nodded, moving his gaze to land on one of the people:
"Mr. Mo?"
Patriarch Mo Fu of the Mo Family opened his mouth, his face showing bitterness, and said with hands clasped:
"The Mo Family is willing to offer five hundred taels."
