Rofuss most admired political figures were, apart from the Founding Fathers of the Newland Federation, the current Grand Secretary of the Liangxia Empire.
In Rofuss's own words, if given a choice, he would rather be friends with Xue Yuanzheng.
In this world, perhaps no one wanted to be Xue Yuanzheng's opponent.
Not to mention anything else, in the past decade, Xue Yuanzheng had done many things that Rofuss had always wanted to do but never dared or was unable to do.
Most representative was the promotion of trade relationships with other countries by opening up its markets.
