Anjing was not the sort of person to sweep public spoils straight into his own account and flip them for personal profit—though for the moment, the spoils of Linjiang City were practically indistinguishable from his private assets, the necessary procedures still had to be followed.

After receiving two replies—“Read, in principle approved; please consult Prince De” and “Read, approved”—Anjing was granted the right to dispose of the spoils as he saw fit.
