Chapter 49: Yu Dadan
"This…” The clerk’s eyes turned, a look of difficulty appearing on his face.
Seeing this, Shen Luo understood. He reached into his sleeve, pulling out a piece of silver and placing it on the table.
The clerk glanced at it, his eyes brightening immediately, and he reached out to take it.
"First, tell me.” Shen Luo raised his hand to lightly cover the silver, a gentle smile appearing on his face.
"Ahem…if I’m not mistaken, there is only one family with the surname Yu who works as boatmen on the Huangwei Dang section of the river. The water area spans more than ten miles with many hidden reefs and chaotic rocks, and the water flow is rapid. Only that man from the Yu family can navigate the boat there.” The clerk cleared his throat and withdrew his hand, looking somewhat disgruntled.
Upon hearing this, Shen Luo was pleased inside. He picked up the silver and placed it into the clerk’s palm, but he didn’t let go immediately, continuing to ask:
"Where is Huangwei Dang, and is it easy to find?”
"Easy to find, easy to find. Just go out of the western city gate and head southwest for about fifty or sixty miles. If you can’t find it along the way, just ask anyone. Say you’re looking for Yu Dadan,” the clerk said quickly, his face beaming as he felt the chill of the silver in his palm.
"Thank you,” Shen Luo said, letting go and smiling.
