Chapter 73
Chief Steward Seong flinched.
The proper name for Yangnyeong was Yangnyeong County.
When the previous county magistrate held office, he didn’t govern just Yangnyeong itself. He oversaw all the surrounding villages that fell within its jurisdiction.
There were four villages encircling Yangnyeong:
Cheongsu Village, Unam Hamlet, Baekun Town, and Jukrim Town.
The magistrate’s duties were to collect taxes, maintain order, and resolve disputes in these places.
The former magistrate hadn’t done any of that.
But Unwi would.
He intended to do it all.
“I asked if it’s true.”
“...If you’re asking whether Tianlin runs a black market there... yes. It’s true.”
Chief Steward Seong sighed heavily as he looked at Unwi’s faint smile.
