Head-on Clash

For the following period of time, Qin Wentian stayed in the governor's manor and didn't go out. The various major and minor powers of the northern city regions all took the initiative to come and pay up the contributions that they owed for the past tens of years. There was basically no need for the people of the governor's manor to head out to collect tribute. In fact, Qin Wentian even gave the order for them not to head over for tribute collection. In this way, it actually increased the pressure the powers in the northern city regions was feeling. Nobody dared to not come and pay up.
