The procurement team, led by the steward Gu Renbing, slowly left the manor. The team stretched out like a long serpent, very similar to when Gu Sheng had entered the city for the first time.
As before, it was Gu Dajiang and Gu Xiaojiang leading the team as father and son.
The difference was that Gu Sheng's identity had now completely transformed.
The team moved forward along the road.
There were no disturbances along the way. Gu Xiaojiang, vigilant from time to time, was a stark contrast to his demeanor during Gu Sheng's first trip to the city. The encounter during that first trip — narrowly escaping death — had changed him greatly, making his personality far more cautious.
Luckily.
There were no troubles along the way. Ever since Liu Yuanhu became the interim magistrate of Canghe County, he held complete authority over the area. Many mountain bandits dared not act too recklessly, lest they provoke an eradication campaign.
