Chapter 1358: Chapter 363: Truly My Good Brother_3

But for the Courtesan, after all, this was still a city untested by time. If she came to the city at this time, it was certainly because of personal connections! Otherwise, a Courtesan would not risk her reputation and come to a burgeoning city at this time.

Then he glanced at Yuchi again. After confirming that there was no joking in his gaze, he took a deep breath, grasped the armrests of the chair firmly to avoid falling off, and couldn’t help but ask a question.

"President Yuchi, I haven’t read much; is this true?" The County Magistrate trembled.

"Sir, you’ve known me for quite a while now; don’t you know me well enough yet?"

"Since we’ve spoken about this matter openly, it indicates that there should be no issue, barring any force majeure situations."

"For instance, mountain floods, tsunamis, mudslides; otherwise, the Courtesan should be able to come to Jiangnan after the New Year this year."

Yuchi smiled.

He had initially planned to delay the plan until the year after next, but since the authorities said there was no issue, and the number of people entering Jiangnan was under control, he could add fuel to the fire at this time.

The main purpose was to push Jiangnan into a phase of rapid development. Once his tasks here were complete, he would have the opportunity to handle other things, without fixating solely on Jiangnan. He could then explore new lines of business in new areas.

"Alright then!"

The County Magistrate was at a loss about how to view the man before him!

It’s important to know that gaining trust for a Courtesan is very difficult. Without many acquaintances or extremely reliable personal connections, such a feat would be unattainable. Yet, the man before him could achieve it, which was truly remarkable!

Swallowing hard, he quickly drank a mouthful of tea, moistening his throat, and then he candidly asked Yuchi:

"President Yuchi, I already know the first matter, so what’s the second? It can’t be more astonishing than the first, can it?"

Then he realized that saying such things might be unwise!

Why do I sound like Poisonous Milk?!

Saying something won’t happen, and then it actually occurs—using such remarks with the man before him wasn’t right, so he decided to rephrase.

He corrected himself:

"President Yuchi! The second matter must be more astonishing than the first, right? It must be even more astonishing than the first, right?"

That was fine; otherwise, he always got embarrassed after speaking, with his face burning hot. That’s not good. By stating that the second matter could be even more astonishing than the first, it wouldn’t be unexpected or confusing!

It would mean he predicted the development beforehand, a starkly different scenario—a capability only narratives’ protagonists possess!

Yuchi: "..."

Well, seems like people have started preemptively answering, they’re already familiar with the routine!

Yuchi looked at the man before him, seeing the fear and anticipation in his eyes, felt a bit embarrassed and said with a smile, "Sir, you should know about the Celestial Craft Workshop’s influence."

County Magistrate: "..."

Upon hearing Yuchi’s words, he was completely shocked, staring at the man before him. It seemed like he anticipated something, but such anticipation was hard to translate into reality because it sounded too overwhelming!

He intended to change his speaking style, but merely altered it slightly. Upon hearing those words, he could not maintain his calm demeanor, saying he was entirely shocked!

Could it be that he has connections with Celestial Craft Workshop?

Could the Celestial Craft Workshop indeed be entering Jiangnan?

Impossible, right.

Impossible, right.

This shouldn’t be possible.

Why? Because while Courtesans are impressive, they only appear in some large cities, maintaining personal relationships!

Meaning, I have a good relationship with you, so if you know any Courtesans, you can introduce them to me. This falls under personal relationships!

There won’t be a connection between individuals and the Celestial Craft Workshop—they aren’t a small faction; they’re the largest entity in their entire state. If they are about to set up a shop in Jiangnan, this means this man has a great relationship with them; otherwise, the Celestial Craft Workshop wouldn’t logically come to Jiangnan now!

"Brother, why are you silent?" the County Magistrate said, trembling.

"Because you’ve already anticipated everything I was going to say in your heart," Yuchi replied with a smile.
