Li Erlang immediately asked, "What do you mean by that?"
Bai Shanbao thought for a while and realized it was not necessarily a bad thing, so he shared how County Magistrate Yang had first used his own money to buy and lend out cattle, and then bought grain seeds and agricultural tools to distribute to the farmers.
County Magistrate Yang was known for being wealthy and bold, a common perception among the residents of Luojiang County both high and low.
The grain price war of the previous year had led to his impeachment, but in the end, he had emerged victorious.
Bai Shanbao and Manbao got along well with him; some things he couldn't discuss with people in the County Governmental Office, and since Wantian was just a servant, he would talk to the two of them whenever he met them.
Ultimately, he had won that battle over grain prices.
