Chapter 176 What is it For

Jiang Yifan, watched closely by Ye Xinyan and Jinrong, showed no sign of discomfort and spoke with his usual candor and gentleness, "Please forgive my frankness, educating the common people is the duty of a local official. The Qi family's small shop has opened in the town not long ago and has already gained a respectable reputation. I have also heard that the shop is in negotiations to purchase the adjacent shops and residential houses. If they continue to do business this way, the Qi family's prosperity is just around the corner."

Although Qi Younian didn't know why Jiang Yifan suddenly brought up his family's property and business dealings, it was necessary to exchange pleasantries so that Your Excellency the County Magistrate could continue speaking.
