Urban Martial Saint

Chapter 1889 - 1889: Members of the Huang Family

Of course, selling something for seven thousand that only costs two to three thousand, she's definitely not losing out.Ye Qing murmured to himself, if it weren't to extract some useful information from this woman, he wouldn't have bought these goods.

After finishing her sentence, the woman realized she might have misspoken, quickly changing her words: "No, it's... it's this box of Maotai, you bought it for seven thousand, you definitely won't lose out!"

"Doesn't matter if it's a loss or not, I'm taking it to gift someone, not to drink myself. As long as this is the price, the level is there, that's enough." Ye Qing smiled.

"Oh, so you're gifting it then, brother." The woman smiled, her gossiping instinct instantly kicking in, and asked softly: "Brother, giving such a heavy gift, is there a big event you're handling?"

"It's not really a big deal..." Ye Qing sighed, glanced at the woman, and whispered: "By the way, big sis, can you do me a little favor?"

"What favor, just tell me, big sis will absolutely help if she can!" The woman immediately said, considering Ye Qing spent so much money buying this box of wine, she felt a bit guilty. Helping Ye Qing a bit would at least ease her conscience.

"This thing is a little tricky to talk about." Ye Qing sighed, seeing the woman's curious expression, he turned to look outside Shan De Tea House, whispering: "Big sis, do you know who the boss of that Shan De Tea House is?"

Hearing this, the woman's expression changed instantly, she looked at Ye Qing with vigilance, saying: "Why are you asking about this?"

Seeing her reaction, Ye Qing felt an intuition. This level of wariness suggested that there must be something amiss in the Shan De Tea House. If it were a normal household, why would she be so intense?

"No, no..." Ye Qing whispered: "Big sis, please don't be afraid, I... I just want to ask about the situation inside Shan De Tea House."

"Why are you asking about this?" The woman became even more wary, glaring at Ye Qing, said emphatically: "I don't know anything about the situation in Shan De Tea House, so don't ask me."

"Big sis..." Ye Qing wanted to say more, but the woman pushed the box of Maotai forward and said: "Stop wasting time, pay the money and leave quickly."

Ye Qing looked at the box of Maotai then at the woman, whispered: "Big sis, if you don't help me, I can't even take this wine!"

"Are you threatening me?" The woman got angry and glared at Ye Qing indignantly. But after looking at the box of Maotai, she couldn't help but ask reluctantly: "What exactly do you want?"

"Big sis, listen to me carefully." Ye Qing said: "I don't have any plans against Shan De Tea House, this wine is also meant for gift-giving. But I don't understand Shan De Tea House at all, even buying this wine, I don't know whom to give it to!"

"Oh?" Hearing that Ye Qing intended to give a gift to someone inside, the woman's expression softened. She looked at Ye Qing and said, "You aren't here to cause trouble?"

"Big sis, would I dare?" Ye Qing said with a miserable expression: "The thing is, I have a younger brother who somehow offended them inside a while ago. Last night, he was beaten up inside Shan De Tea House."

"Is there such thing?" The woman widened her eyes and muttered: "No wonder I heard some noises inside yesterday, turns out there really was a fight."

Hearing this, Ye Qing felt delighted inside, knowing he was asking the right person this time. Judging by the woman's reaction, she must be aware of the situation in Shan De Tea House; otherwise, she wouldn't be so wary.

"Yes, my brother was beaten up and called me overnight to ask for help. But when I got here, my brother was already gone!" Ye Qing sighed and whispered: "I figured, since it's on their turf, he must have offended someone important. I suspect that someone inside Shan De Tea House must have taken him away!"

The woman looked at Ye Qing and whispered: "How exactly did your brother offend those people?"

"I don't know either." Ye Qing thought for a moment and said: "From what he said, it seems to involve some minor business matters. It's not a big deal, but you know, young people can have tempers and conflicts are inevitable."

"That's true." The woman nodded and looked at Ye Qing, asking: "So what are you planning to do now?"

"Ah!" Ye Qing sighed and said: "I was thinking of calling the police..."

"Don't call the police!" The woman immediately interrupted Ye Qing, looked around nervously, whispered: "Brother, if you trust big sis, then don't call the police!"

"Oh?" Ye Qing looked at the woman and whispered: "Big sis, what you're saying is exactly what the taxi driver told me earlier when I came over. He advised me to spend money to settle the matter and never involve the police. But why... why is this?"

"Brother, you must be visiting Xifu City for the first time." The woman said: "You might not know that in Xifu City, the people inside Shan De Tea House are like untouchable royalty!"

"Is that so?" Ye Qing's heart skipped a beat; it seemed Shan De Tea House was indeed not simple.

"Of course!" The woman glanced at Ye Qing and whispered: "Brother, you seem quite sincere, so I won't hide it from you. However, don't mention to anyone that I told you this."

"Big sis, you helped me; I'd be grateful and wouldn't let you down." Ye Qing said appreciatively: "Big sis, it's my first time here, and I don't understand anything. You've been around here for a long time, so you must be familiar with the people inside Shan De Tea House. Please tell me about the situation inside. Otherwise, I won't know which deity to pay respects to even with gifts and money."

Ye Qing showered the woman with flattering terms and succeeded in persuading her. The woman cautiously checked the surroundings and, ensuring no one was nearby, whispered: "Young man, do you know who the boss of Shan De Tea House is?"

"Who?" Ye Qing asked.

The woman said: "The boss's name is Yang Tianyun, and in Xifu City, he's like a feudal landowner, a character that nobody dares to provoke!"

"Oh?" Ye Qing frowned slightly; if he's just a land owner, he shouldn't be so formidable, right? Considering how strong Liu Mubai is, how could he be injured by a mere landowner?

"But..." At this point, the woman continued: "Yang Tianyun alone might only be rich, but he doesn't have such immense power. The reason Shan De Tea House strikes fear in people's hearts in Xifu City is because of who he's relying on."

Ye Qing quickly shook his head, and the woman's gossiping nature was stirred, she immediately said: "I knew you wouldn't understand, otherwise you wouldn't have considered calling the police. Let me tell you the truth, Yang Tianyun, he's the son-in-law of the Huang Family!"

"Huang Family?" Ye Qing's heart skipped a beat, hearing these two words, he suddenly felt uneasy. There can't be many families that can be called the Huang Family and have such power, right?

The woman whispered: "You may not know the Huang Family, but have you heard of Huang Yidao?"

"Huang Yidao!?" Ye Qing exclaimed; he had suspected it might be Huang Yidao's Huang Family. Unexpectedly, it indeed involved Huang Yidao. This means, his brother Ye Jun's disappearance, along with Black Bear and Liu Mubai, are all related to Huang Yidao's Huang Family?

However, in the last Humeng City clash, Huang Yidao was subdued by Prince Nalan, trying to compete for the Sun Shooting Bow, only to be killed by Ye Qing. Ye Qing initially thought the Huang Family was in decline. But unexpectedly, this situation arose, and the Huang Family still dared to strike at his people; does this mean the Huang Family has found new backing?

"Brother, I see your expression, you probably have heard of Huang Yidao. I won't elaborate on Huang Yidao's matters." The woman whispered: "I don't know who your brother offended inside, but if it's a minor issue, money might resolve it. If it's too big, brother, let me advise you not to throw your life away!"

In other words, she was telling Ye Qing that if the matter is too big, trying to resolve it is a death sentence, better to just forget about the brother.

Ye Qing frowned and turned to look at Shan De Tea House. If this really has ties with Huang Yidao's royal family, then the situation is indeed troublesome. Having killed Huang Yidao, he's already in a life-or-death standoff with the Huang Family. With these people capturing Ye Jun, Black Bear, and Liu Mubai, can these three really fare well? Moreover, what's most crucial now is that Ye Qing doesn't even know where the trio is being held. Even with Fu Qingping's assistance to sweep Huang Family, they must first locate Ye Jun, Black Bear, and Liu Mubai. Otherwise, if Ye Qing rushes into an attack, whether he can find the trio aside, if he angers the Huang Family and they kill the trio first, wouldn't Ye Qing have made the trip for nothing?

"Big sis, besides Yang Tianyun, who else is in charge inside Shan De Tea House?" Ye Qing whispered: "If I were to gift, whom would it be appropriate to give to? My brother's issue isn't major, there's always someone who can help him out!"

"This thing you're asking me, you're asking the right person." The woman immediately smiled and said: "I've been here for a long time, and I'm very familiar with the situation inside Shan De Tea House. However, brother, if you're looking for someone influential, a single box of wine won't suffice!"

"Big sis, whatever else is needed, help me arrange it. I definitely won't shortchange you on money!" Ye Qing quickly smiled, realizing the woman was indirectly asking for payment.

"Great!" The woman was thrilled, saying: "Rest assured, I'll handle the items, no problem. If it doesn't work out, you come find me!"
