The atmosphere in the office was quite nice, and the rain falling outside was irrelevant to the dryness within the room. The streams of water on the window ledge and the hot tea in the cup complemented each other, one cold and the other warm.
Despite the numerous tasks, more than triple the usual amount, being able to sit in the room handling official business in such weather was actually a very comfortable matter indeed.
This was just an inconspicuous little office in the hinterlands of the Great Tang, where a minor administrative officer worked.
There were several levels of administrative officers in the Great Tang Kingdom, with some for small towns and others for large cities, each responsible for different areas.
Above the city administrators, there were higher-level chief administrators who also called themselves administrators, though their administrative rank was much greater.
