Chapter 344: The Original Host's Grievance

"Zhang San, are you the witness?"

The moment Magistrate of Metropolitan prefecture Shen Erxian saw Zhang San, his mind essentially pieced the whole situation together.

He had previously spoken to the young man about buying a house, intending to offer him a property from the Shen Family that, although not particularly large, was still quite decent and not too far from the Shen Family's residence.

Once Zhang San found out that the prices in the Capital were too high and wanted to buy a house, the Shen Family could take the opportunity to sell him a good one at the right moment.

Moreover, counting on Shen Bao's intelligence, which was not at all promising, was less reliable than hoping that Shen Bao could make a good friend like Zhang San and then arrange a marriage for Shen Bao early so he could have more children.

Hoping that some of these children, recognizing Zhang San as their godfather, would turn out to be successful.
