At that time, he, too, was interested enough to set aside the political affairs he held in his hands.
Thus, he just straightforwardly watched the drama unfold.
“Family Head, it is, it is, it is the subordinate...”
Not long after, a man who seemed to be in his forties or fifties stood up tremblingly.
One could see that although he hadn’t yet spoken, the expression of panic and unease on his face was already incredibly intense.
Were it not for the fact that Luo Ping, the Current Patriarch of the Luo Family, had yet to harshly reprimand him, this person would probably have found it hard to even stand.
The matters of Nanshan Prefecture were personally handled by him.
And now, he had yet to properly resolve this matter.
This was already a dereliction of duty on his part.
“Nanshan Prefecture matter, why hasn’t it been resolved until now?”
“This matter, are you not taking it seriously or is it...”
Inside the room.
Luo Ping, the Current Patriarch of the Luo Family, began to sound increasingly icy.
Before Luo Ping could finish these words, the person in charge of this matter quickly stood up and knelt down on the ground.
“Family Head, this matter, this matter...”
“This matter has other hidden factors.”
Sitting in the main seat, Luo Ping heard this and his slightly narrowed eyes remained narrowed, “Oh? What do you mean?”
In fact, it wasn’t just Luo Ping of the Luo Family in Qingshi City,
but Luo Yao, the next-in-line successor of the Luo Family, was similarly disposed.
At that moment, the members of the Brain Trust in the room displayed faces full of schadenfreude.
After all, this matter did not involve them.
What did they, members of the Brain Trust, have to worry about?
“Family Head.”
“The disturbances in Nanshan County actually had been largely quelled from the beginning when I did my utmost to manage them.”
“But what I did not expect...”
“Soon after, the disturbances in Nanshan County gradually began to flare up again.”
“And the disturbances kept growing larger and larger.”
“During this period, I have been investigating the specifics of this matter.”
Inside the room.
The kneeling member of the Brain Trust spoke with a tremble in his tone.
Luo Ping quietly watched the man in front of him.
He picked up a cup of hot tea from the table, brought it to his lips, sipped a bit.
Then, he quietly asked, “The specifics? What specifics? Let’s hear it...”
The member of the Brain Trust promptly spoke up, “Family Head, the disturbances in Nanshan County have never ceased, but have grown instead. I suspect that major clans within Nanshan County are involved...”
Upon hearing this, Luo Ping’s countenance involuntarily displayed a hint of surprise as he counter-asked, “Major clans of Nanshan County? Are you sure?”
The kneeling member of the Brain Trust clenched his teeth and nodded, “Certain, and very likely...”
Seeing this, Luo Ping, sitting in the main seat, silently waved his hand, signaling that the member of the Brain Trust could sit back down.
And as that person cautiously returned to his position, sitting down with just half his buttocks, Luo Ping, the Current Patriarch of the Luo Family, couldn’t help but ask again.
“How long do you think you need to resolve this matter?”
The Brain Trust member who had just returned to his position pondered the question briefly before giving a reply, “Within one month...”
A month is not actually a long time.
Generally, such disturbances could hardly be resolved in less than two or three months.
It’s not that the Luo Family in Qingshi City finds such a matter troublesome.
Rather, such minor issues have never really exercised the true capabilities of the Qingshi City Luo Family.
Normally, it’s managed by those below them.
If the Qingshi City Luo Family were ever forced to take matters into their own hands, it is estimated it could be ended within three days.
Furthermore, at least half or even more of those three days would be spent traveling.
After all, the land of Nanshan County is not near Qingshi City.
He throuht of hurrying to Nanshan District from Qingshi City.
Even if a Tortoise Shell Hovering Boat was used, it would still take some time.
And if one were to truly walk...
It would take months, and one probably wouldn’t even arrive.
Thus, there was even less to say about resolving the unrest in Nanshan District.
“Alright.” “Since you say one month, then let it be one month.” “If you handle it well, naturally there will be benefits.” “If you do not handle it well...” As he spoke, Luo Ping shifted his gaze back to a member of the Brain Trust, who was already sweating profusely, “If you cannot handle it, then you need not come back in the future...” After saying this, Luo Ping, the current Patriarch of the Luo Family seated at the head of the table, lowered his head again.
Silently flipping through the government affairs documents in his hands.
Meanwhile, the other members of the Brain Trust in the room.
After hearing these words from Luo Ping, the current Patriarch of the Luo Family.
Everyone became somewhat excited.
It’s known that the number of members in the Brain Trust is limited.
It’s not as if anyone who wishes to join can.
Therefore, once the Brain Trust is full.
Those outside families, or the talents under the Qingshi City Luo Family, also extinguished their hopes of entering the Brain Trust.
And now, suddenly, such an opportunity appeared.
Naturally, everyone silently watched that member of the Brain Trust.
However, though that was the case.
If they were to hinder that member from doing their work.
They naturally did not have the boldness to do so.
Not disturbing them was permissible.
But if they dared to play any tricks in such matters.
It would be fine if it was unknown by others.
But if it became known by others, known by those of the Qingshi City Luo Family.
The price they’d have to pay would be extremely horrifying.
Being directly expelled from Qingshi City, or even having the powers supporting that member of the Brain Trust expelled from the city were possibilities.
These were not impossibilities.
At dusk.
A round moon hung high in the sky.
Its milky light continuously sprinkled upon this vast land.
This made the countless creatures on this land feel waves of relief and tranquility.
Deep within the Luo Family ancestral land in Qingshi City.
Inside a small courtyard continuously emanating an ancient and mysterious aura.
At this moment, Luo Changfeng, the Ancestor of the Qingshi City Luo Family.
He was holding a cup of hot tea, silently drinking while calmly enjoying the current night scene.
This morning, the incident that happened in the room designated for handling government affairs within the family.
He was naturally aware of it.
One might even say he knew from the very beginning.
He also knew the reasons why the unrest could never be resolved.
Yet, for such matters, he had already grown somewhat weary of paying attention.
Why would he care about the disturbances of ants?
Let alone the unrest within Nanshan District, even the Da Feng Dynasty’s Imperial Feng Family, Luo Changfeng no longer regarded them.
The recent quietness of the Demon Power of White Brahma Temple hidden within the White Lotus Prefecture was the same.
Compared to caring about these powers, he would rather pay more attention to the Wan Dan Sect Sub-sect he held in his hands.
Currently, his Wan Dan Sect Sub-sect was intensely competing with the nearby Divine Pill Sect Sub-sect.
Price wars, poaching and such.
Basically, everything had been employed.
Though it seemed to have no significant effect in the short term.
Still, there was somewhat of a use.
Better than doing nothing, right?
“Price wars are useful, but if too many are played...”
“The revenue from Spirit Stones seems to be greatly decreasing.”
“Doing this, I’m not sure if it’s worth it or not.”
