After Black Tooth and Lou Yuxue finished their probing, they moved on to discuss matters related to the current deal.
For the most part, however, Chen Yi had already learned of the situation from Liu Lang.
Or had gleaned it from eavesdropping on the Hidden Guard.
Among the new information, only two things concerned Chen Yi.
The first was news about the other financier.
Although Black Tooth was vague, the few scraps of information he let slip made it easy to deduce that the person was likely a local from Shu State.
Probably a member of one of the great Noble Families.
This aligned with Chen Yi's earlier speculation. However, with so little information available, he couldn't be certain which family the person was from.
After all, there were many families in Shu State on good terms with the Xiao Family, but even more who were their enemies.
Until that person's identity was exposed, it would be difficult to deduce who they were from such fragmented clues.
