After Lin Xuan Qi got into the horse carriage with Lee He Song, he wanted to instruct the coachman to bring him to the factory in the north.
But when he wanted to do so, he felt hungry and he instructed the coachman to head for Old Feng's inn instead.
He could eat and gather some information about what happened outside the city at the same time.

The horses trotted off in the next moment.
Lin Xuan Qi pondered on what he could do to avoid paying up to Zhao Geng Nian.
But amidst the monotonous trotting of the horses' hooves, he wasn't able to think of much.
One possibility was to find the Governor and ask him to promise something in return for their contributions.
At least, in this way, they would be able to get something worthwhile back from it.
But he had to scrap it since he and the other businessmen didn't have any leverage on the Governor.
Zhao Geng Nian's plan was the best for the Governor.
