This made the villagers, who had never had an intimate chat with a noble general, blush and feel greatly honored. In the future, when going out for a drink and boasting, they could say, "I once had a drink and a chat with a general! Do you have that? Haha!"
Many villagers' favorability towards Long Chen even reached the eighties.
This behavior gradually shook the firm resolve in Xu Chu's heart.
His ambition was to assist a lord with aspirations to swallow mountains and rivers, unify the land, or support the Han dynasty. Although Long Chen excelled in various aspects and had favorable conditions, being both a general and a county magistrate with his own base, Xu Chu was moved by his charisma.
However, he wondered about Long Chen's aspirations!
Xu Chu decided to test it later.
As night fell, persuaded by the villagers' enthusiasm, Long Chen finally decided to stay in the village for the night.
