Seeing that Hemushan was a little panicked, the county lieutenant said calmly: "In the entire county government, the county magistrate is naturally the most powerful. If you want to find someone to help you, you can only ask the county magistrate for help."
"Ah? Looking for the county magistrate, but I don't know him!"
"It doesn't matter if you don't know him. As long as you are willing to pay some money, I can help you contact the county magistrate. I believe that with the help of the county magistrate, your case will be nothing."
After hearing this, Hemushan finally understood that the county government wanted to seize his wealth.
But he was still prepared to continue acting with the other party.
"Then, how much money should I pay?" Hemushan asked the county lieutenant.
