Martial Arts Crossover: Something's Wrong with This Evil Sect

After Jia Ting finished speaking, he sat upright and calmly surveyed his surroundings.

As Cao Shaoqin's confidant, he naturally carried an air of arrogance. If it weren't for the mission he was on, would someone like Jin Xiangyu even be worthy of speaking to him?

"I'm talking to you!"

Cao Tian, ​​who was standing to the side, saw that Jin Xiangyu was only busy with the account books and ignored everyone else.

He was immediately furious, thinking that the Eastern Depot had influence over everyone in the Ming Dynasty, from civil and military officials to江湖人士 (jianghu figures).

Who wouldn't feel a sense of dread upon hearing the name of the Eastern Depot? How could they possibly let a mere manager from a desolate place bully them?

"What the hell are you calling my mother's soul! Can't you see I'm busy?"

Jin Xiangyu didn't even raise her head, and said with a displeased expression, while simultaneously launching into a barrage of insults at Cao Tian's family.

"you....."

Upon hearing this, Cao Tian's face instantly darkened, and he immediately prepared to teach Jin Xiangyu a lesson, to let her know who she couldn't afford to offend!

However, just as he was about to make his move.

Sitting to the side, Jia Ting glanced at Cao Tian and secretly gave him a look, signaling him not to act rashly.

Then Jia Ting turned to Jin Xiangyu and said politely, "Manager, are there any superior rooms available?"

"It's all gone! It's full!"

Jin Xiangyu was in a terrible mood. These past two days had been incredibly unlucky for her, with nothing going her way.

She finally had her eye on two guys and was starting to have feelings for them, but one turned out to be a pervert, and the other was even more outrageous—he was a woman! She was so angry she wanted to kill him.

"That's simple, just make them move out, right?"

Jia Ting spoke softly, his tone gentle yet carrying an undeniable air of authority.

A toad yawning—what an arrogant tone!

Upon hearing this, Jin Xiangyu finally raised her head and carefully examined Jia Ting and his entourage.

The more she looked, the more suspicious she became. Although these people were wearing straw raincoats, they had the air of officials and were clearly not from the martial arts world.

But so what? Jin Xiangyu works at this Dragon Gate Inn, and she's not immune to killing before!

Coming to the Dragon Gate Inn to show off your toughness is probably a bad idea.

"This old lady is the kind of person who, if she's willing, will grant it a hundredfold..."

Jin Xiangyu paused for a moment, glanced at the person in front of her, and then leaped up, appearing on the table opposite Jia Ting in the blink of an eye.

The innkeeper, ever observant, handed her a stool, making her a head taller than Jia Ting.

After realizing that she was far more imposing than Jia Ting, she gave a cold laugh and said, "If you're not willing, you can put a hundred knives to my neck, and I still won't listen!"

"Be bold!"

Seeing that Jin Xiangyu dared to be so presumptuous, Lu Xiaochuan immediately shouted and prepared to take action.

"Hmm? Step back!" Jia Ting raised his eyebrows and blocked Lu Xiaochuan's path.

Their purpose in coming here was for Zhou Huai'an, and there was no need to create unnecessary trouble and anger this local tyrant.

Once this is all done, we can do whatever we want with this little Dragon Gate Inn. We'll make the innkeeper regret ever being born!

Thinking of this, Jia Ting couldn't help but smile more. "Manager, we're in business. I don't care about money. The most important thing is to stay comfortably and happily!"

Upon hearing this, Jin Xiangyu, who hated pretentious people the most, retorted with a barbed remark.

"Oh? I'm a businesswoman too, but you've made such a mess of this place. How are you going to compensate me?"

Jia Ting chuckled lightly, "Simple, madam, why don't you calculate the total losses? I'll compensate you three times the price!"

Hmm? A big fat sheep?

Jin Xiangyu's eyes lit up immediately. She leaped off the table, revealing a charming smile.

"Oh, what are you saying? All these miscellaneous things added up must amount to at least this much!"

She held up three fingers and waved them in front of Jia Ting.

"Huh? Three hundred taels?!"

Before Jia Ting could speak, Cao Tian spoke first.

"Heh, three hundred taels?"

Jin Xiangyu rolled her eyes at Cao Tian and said with a smile, "It should be three thousand taels!"

Jin Xiangyu wanted to take this opportunity to reclaim everything she had lost from Shan Tianxie.

It's not that I'm trying to say she's amazing, but rather to tell others that she's determined to get back what she's lost, like these three thousand taels of silver!

"You might as well just rob someone!" Cao Tian slammed his fist on the table and roared, "What kind of junk could be worth three thousand taels of silver!"

"Otherwise, what do you think I'm doing?"

Jin Xiangyu smiled broadly, knowing that if these people uttered even a single word of dissent, they would be in for a bad time today.

Jia Ting waved his hand, "Give it to her!"

"But..."

Cao Tian wanted to argue a few more points.

I told her to give it to her!

Jia Ting said in a deep voice, his tone exuding an unquestionable authority.

"it is good!"

Upon seeing Jia Ting's gloomy expression, Cao Tian dared not utter another word and hurriedly took out three thousand taels of silver notes from his pocket and handed them to Jin Xiangyu.

He added in a sinister tone, "Boss lady, you'd better keep this safe!"

Jin Xiangyu didn't take these words to heart at all, and excitedly stuffed the silver notes into her pocket. "Aren't you blind? Aren't you going to invite our distinguished guests to their rooms to rest?"

Only then did the staff realize what was happening, and they hurriedly helped Jia Ting and his group carry their things towards the guest rooms.

Jin Xiangyu returned to her room with a happy heart and put the silver notes into her savings box.

........

In the guest room.

"Master Jia, why didn't you let me teach that shopkeeper a lesson just now?! He was fucking bullying us!"

After seeing the waiter leave, Cao Tian quickly asked Jia Ting.

"Fool!" Jia Ting shouted angrily. This Cao Tian, ​​who knows how he infiltrated the Eastern Depot, is simply as stupid as a pig!

He then asked in a low voice, "It's just a mere three thousand taels of silver. Don't forget why the young governor sent us here?"

"Use Yang Yuxuan's bloodline to force Zhou Huai'an to show himself and find out where Yang Yuxuan put the military seal!"

Cao Tian answered in a muffled voice.

"That solves it. We can wipe out the Dragon Gate Inn with a wave of our hand."

Jia Ting said with a gloomy expression.

"But if this exposes our identities as members of the Eastern Depot, and word gets out..."

If Zhou Huai'an finds out, he'll definitely change his route. If that happens, you'll lose track of Zhou Huai'an, delaying the important matters of the Young Commander and the Commander-in-Chief. Then you'll have to apologize to those two!

"It was my recklessness! From now on, I'll leave everything to Master Jia's arrangements!"

Cao Tian, ​​standing to the side, shuddered involuntarily as he recalled the fates of those who had caused trouble before.

Just then, Lu Xiaochuan walked in from outside. "Master Jia, I just asked the staff, and there have only been two groups of people staying here in the last two days!"

"Oh?"

Jia Ting immediately became interested, knowing that they had made quite a few preparations before coming.

I thought it would be a chaotic situation, but to my surprise, there are only two groups of customers. It's like heaven is helping me!
