Clan Rise: Starting as a Grandfather

Chapter 291: Chapter 282: Reunion with Luo Shang

Tenglong Guard, within the Guardian Department.

“General Yang is benevolent and righteous. I, Wang, am thankful to General Yang for maintaining peace and security for the people, for eliminating harm, and for relieving the suffering of the people…”

Inside the main hall of the government office, Wang Zhenze continuously clenched his fists in a bowing salute towards Yang Zhenshan, as various flattering words blurted out ceaselessly.

Next to him, Shang Mingde chimed in, “Exactly, General Yang is benevolent and selfless!”

The two of them echoed each other, making Yang Zhenshan somewhat embarrassed.

‘Am I really that good?’

Yang Zhenshan stroked his beard, smiling at the corners of his mouth, muttering to himself in his heart.

If you say he’s benevolent, that can be counted; he helped the Wang family retrieve their cotton cloth and returned the full amount of Silver Coin, which naturally falls under being benevolent. If it had been anyone else, the Wang family would likely not have recovered a single copper coin.

If you say he eliminated threats for the people, this is also true, as he indeed wiped out a group of bandits.

But to say he is completely selfless, Yang Zhenshan felt a bit embarrassed.

“Cough cough, Family Head Shang, Manager Wang, haha, please take a seat!”

Yang Zhenshan had to interrupt the flattery and invite them to sit down.

“Many thanks, General Yang!”

The two thanked him with clasped fists, and then they sat down beside Yang Zhenshan.

“General Yang retrieved the cotton cloth for me and paid the exact amount due; I truly cannot thank you enough!” Wang Zhenze spoke with genuine emotion this time.

Previously, he had completely given up on that batch of cotton cloth, considering it as a loss to avoid disaster.

But he never expected that not only would Yang Zhenshan retrieve the cotton cloth, but he also sent someone to Jing’an City to invite him to collect the payment.
