Liang Shi's expression was complicated. "You're all mistaken. This Ancient Wen Heng is not as simple as he seems. Otherwise, he couldn't have transformed the turbulent Lu City into a major tax contributor in such a short time.
"I hear his wife has shops all over the place and no shortage of capable people at her disposal.
"Some time ago, the Holy Emperor took notice of his rapid calculation skills and even had him train a batch of personnel. I didn't think much of it at the time, assuming it was all just outside exaggeration.
"Now, it seems those rumors must be true.

They were far from Shangjing here, so their access to information was limited.
