"Don't worry, Lord Sun, we'll meet again soon."
Sun Dachuan only saw the silver notes and didn't understand the meaning behind his words. Instead, he waved goodbye to them warmly.
Only after leaving the government office did Li Ping angrily ask:
"Young master, you're not usually like this. Why are you being so timid today?"
He turned his head and glared at him hatefully.
"You're the coward! This government office is maliciously extorting protection money from the people. Do you have any evidence? Do the people dare to come forward and testify?"
Upon hearing this, Li Ping looked at him as if he had just realized something.
"Young master, what do you mean?"
"Hmph! Since Zhuang Guoqiang refuses to show up, let's get rid of this rotten apple and teach him a lesson!"
"Young master, shall we report back to the imperial court?"
"Of course I will. I'll write a personal letter to my father later and ask him to send an imperial censor to thoroughly investigate Yong'an City. These two documents are crucial pieces of evidence."
Upon hearing this, Li Ping immediately gave Leng Chuchen a thumbs up.

Mentioning the plaque, Li Ping asked curiously again:
"Young master, is Chenwan Heming your, Miss Luo's, and Yiming's names?"
"Yes, the three of us will eventually be together."
"Then... will Miss Luo be angry when she sees this?"
He immediately glared at him.
"Miss Luo, you're so petty. Hurry up and make the plaque. I need to hang it up for business tomorrow."
Li Ping hurriedly nodded and ran to find a shop selling plaques.
Leng Chuchen then went straight back to Caishen Street.
It's already evening, and the main street of Yong'an City is still bustling with activity, but Caishen Street is as deserted as before, with not a single person in sight.
Seeing this scene filled him with indescribable sadness.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed that such a mess could happen in the Celestial Empire, under the benevolent rule of his father.
It seems these rotten apples will never stop.
The next morning
Jiawang and Yiming had already started shouting in the yard early on.
"Eldest sister, father, get up quickly! The government has issued a notice that the Caishen Street is now open to the public."
