Lin Shoude still had some courage, despite his lack of adaptability, but with Yang Zhenshan's suggestion, coupled with the fact that the Prefectural Government now had money and food, Lin Shoude felt that Yang Zhenshan's proposal was highly feasible.
However, the main thing was that he was holding a grudge in his heart, and Yang Zhenshan was right; he had been driven to An Yuan City.
He had been a County Magistrate in Jiangnan for twelve years, but in the end, he could no longer stay in Jiangnan; more precisely, many officials in Jiangnan could no longer tolerate him.
Those officials had banded together to give him a promotion, from County Magistrate to Prefect, moving him from Jiangnan to Chongshan Town.
For most officials, a promotion required spending Silver, cultivating relationships, and owing favors, but Lin Shoude was different; his promotion came from others spending Silver, pulling strings, and owing favors on his behalf.
