Over the years, it could be said that the Jun Family had gotten considerably well in this city.
Even the officials didn’t dare to offend the Jun Family hastily.
"The first young master of the Jun Family, Jun Shi Mo, is going to attend the country examination and the Jun Family is making things difficult for us here," the governor added with a bitter face.
The Jun Family didn’t want to lose any face outside, so they wished that their favored son could become an official easily.
The problem is, is it so easy?
If they were to pass someone unqualified to attend the Imperial Court, they would be investigated in the future. At that time, it was unknown how many people would be pushed down because of this incident and couldn’t return anymore.
The city governor didn’t really want to.
The other officials also didn’t want to.
But the Jun Family has been pressing them.
"I want to know how the Jun Family had enough money in the first place for their business expansion," Jun Shi Lian asked.
"They said that they found a lot of treasures from the ruined buildings of the Second Jun Family and used that wealth to expand the Jun Family business. No one know whether it’s the truth or not but since the Jun Family used to be one, there’s nothing that we can do either," the city governor explained.
The Second Jun Family?
Jun Shi Lian thought about Jun Fang and was a bit speechless. It seemed that his cousin left in a hurry and didn’t bring all of their wealth.
Then again, it was not that easy to leave overnight with all of their wealth and treasures.
There might be some left behind.
’But I didn’t know the Jun Family is so rich…’
Jun Shi Lian chuckled in a low voice and then looked at the governor. "There will be many soldiers returning during this period of time. I hope you can come to various residences and asked to gather enough pension for the disabled."
"Ah?"
"The Jun Family is so rich and there are many people who fought on the frontline who returned injured. How could they not be willing to help?" Jun Shi Lian repeated, his tone was cold.
The city governor froze when he saw Jun Shi Lian’s look and laughed dryly. He felt that this young man was here to make trouble with the Jun Family and extort them openly.
But it was true.

The Jun Family’s reputation hasn’t been very good because they were increasing the prices in many of their business.
If they could use this method to demean the Jun Family…
It was a good thing.
The city governor was stunned when he heard the entire plan from Jun Shi Lian and looked at this young man as if he was seeing a scary person. But he also knew that Jun Shi Lian didn’t tell the exact details of some plans.
It was clear that Jun Shi Lian didn’t trust him completely.
But it didn’t matter.
What the city governor knew was that it would be impossible for him to do anything else.
This young man was already a 1000 men commander on the battlefield and fought on various frontlines. There were not many achievement written but for such a young man to reach this height… he should be very remarkable in his army.
What he didn’t know was that the appointment for him to become 1000 men commander only came down after the war was over.
Nan Luo let him return to settle the business of the Jun Family while he himself went to settle his marriage.
Once he came back, he would be the fifth adjutant of Nan Luo’s army.
But the premise was that he could finish his work at home. ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
After all, the rank of a 1000 men commander was still very high and many people might never reach this rank in their entire life.
Jun Shi Lian is still young.
At least, compared to many other commanders, a 1000 men commander who was still in his early twenties was definitely very young.
