After hearing Jiang Nuan's words, the man stood dumbfounded and looked at the people around him. But the smell of natural farm fertilizer clinging to him had created a small empty space around him. He pointed at himself in disbelief.
Surely the person this master said was suited to being county magistrate wasn't him? How could he possibly have that kind of ability?
He had originally come to the County Magistrate's Residence to haul away night soil that day, but when he passed by and saw so many people gathered there, he could not help stopping for a closer look.
In that brief span of time, Jiang Nuan had assigned him to this group.
Even now, he was still utterly bewildered.
This man's name is Tang Bei. His family was poor from the time he was little and could not afford to send him to school. All he could do was watch enviously as other children went to class.
Unable to suppress his thirst for learning, he would crouch by the school's walls or beneath its windows every day, secretly listening to the teacher's lessons.
The teacher actually knew he was there all along, but never exposed him.
After growing up this way, he found that farming could not even keep him fed, so he decided to take odd jobs. Through a chance turn of events, he ended up hauling night soil.
Guagua gave an introduction to his circumstances.

Guagua soon gave him the answer.
