Yet, seeing Wei Yuan's expectant look, her heart softened, and she said, "The initiative is now in our hands, so what we need to do is to find a way to pressure the Xu Family. The greater the pressure, the quicker the resolution. The best method to pressure them now is to tarnish their reputation. Wasn't there a pedantic scholar named Cai Shizhi not long ago, who wrote many articles cursing you with quite an impact?
This guy could curse you; he could curse others, too. Now, hundreds of thousands of refugees are hanging by a thread because of the Xu Family's selfishness, which is a clear man-made disaster. With such a major incident, if he doesn't write a whole bunch of articles to fiercely criticize them, can he still be called a literatus?"
"Are there really hundreds of thousands?"
"One hundred thousand is too few to have a strong impact. Besides, by the time someone comes to verify the number of refugees, we will have already achieved our goal."
