"What?" In the town hall, Jiang Wang's face showed astonishment.
Only after settling down did he learn from Deacon Qian that the Qi Army had besieged Yang Country.
That's why he understood why Deacon Qian was so accommodating, allowing them to be taken advantage of.
He was still too naïve. Had he known this earlier, not to mention five hundred Prime Stones, he might have been able to obtain a thousand.
But in the grand scheme of things, what do a few more or less Prime Stones really amount to?
Every move of Qi Country could cause turbulence in the Eastern Region.
Let alone such a major event as the army surrounding Yang Country!
"Be clear, when the Qi Army encircles the border, are they locking down Yang Country to stop the plague, or do they intend to swallow it whole?" Jiang Wang asked.
"I'm just a small merchant. How could I see through these major events clearly? But perhaps... it's a bit of both!"
The town hall lapsed into brief silence.
