"How much do you know about the matters of Lu's?" Lu Qing asked again, "Is Mr. Li involved in this as well?"
"Outside the government office, no one knows; within, no one is unaware."
Mentioning Lu's, Shen Xiang did not carry the resentment of the Qingshui County people outside, but instead sighed sadly: "Outsiders say Lu's monopolizes the brewing and selling business in Qingshui County, making a fortune, yet they don't know the boss of Lu's is just driven by greed and can't back down, becoming a 'little devil' under 'King Yan's' control!"
"What do you mean by that?"
"Although Lu's is the only brewery allowed to brew and sell alcohol in Qingshui County, a portion of the Silver they earn each month has to be given to the government office. So, the government turns a blind eye to their market exploitation and doesn't allow others to brew and sell alcohol."
"Isn't that a profitable business?" Lu Qing asked.
