Chapter 274 Boss Wife
Looking at the batch of fabric in front of him, Tang Yu nodded.
"The quality of this fabric is indeed excellent. It is among the best even in Xianyang, let alone Handan."
However, after Tang Yu touched it, he found that the stitching and texture in each place were not quite the same and had some differences.
Finally, he spoke to the waiter.
"Go and call your manager here."
Upon hearing this, the waiter hurriedly went to call the manager.
He knew that the person who could say such things was definitely not someone a lowly waiter like himself could afford to offend.
So they immediately chose to find the shopkeeper.
Watching the other person hurriedly leave, Tang Yu felt even more confused.
If even the largest fabric merchant in Handan cannot provide this kind of fabric, then where does this fabric come from?
Could it be within the city of Xianyang?
After thinking about it, Tang Yu gave up the idea.
No one could do anything really outrageous in Xianyang and still survive.
Those who manage to cause trouble are all acting on sudden whims, and only on a very small scale.
Otherwise, with so many secret agents from the Embroidered Uniform Guard and the Black Ice Guard, as well as the soldiers guarding the city, any one of them could discover you.
Then congratulations, not only will you die without a burial place, but your entire family will also ascend to heaven with you in glory.
"Sir, I heard you were looking for me?"
Tang Yu raised his eyes, expecting an old man to greet him, but to his surprise, it was a young woman.
Her tall figure, though not as striking as Lü Zhi's, possessed its own unique charm.
Meanwhile, her long hair, combed up, was almost up to her waist.
Her face was exceptionally beautiful, yet it also contained a trace of yin energy.
Judging from his manner of speaking, he was clearly the real owner of this cloth shop, not a puppet.
Tang Yu first gave the other person an appreciative look before slowly speaking.
"My name is Zhao Zilong. I greet you, shopkeeper."
When Tang Yu first saw her, he didn't look at her with the strange and unusual gaze that other men usually did.
He didn't say anything that looked down on her, and the woman immediately smiled.
Then he looked at Tang Yu and slowly asked.
"Sir, what brings you here?"
Hearing this, Tang Yu came to his senses.
The purpose of my coming to find this woman was to resolve the doubts in my heart, wasn't it?
He immediately got up and went to the woman's side, and slowly began to speak.
"Shopkeeper, do you have any fabric here that is even finer and has even neater stitches than this batch?"
The woman was taken aback at first, but then smiled and shook her head.
“Sir, if you are looking for better fabric than this, you will probably have to go to Xianyang City.”
"You can only find it in the true capital of my Great Qin."
"And in this city of Handan, my fabrics are already of the highest quality."
Tang Yu did not respond to the woman's words.
Because he knew that what the other party said was true.
At this moment, he took out the fabric from the crime scene that he had obtained earlier, showed it to the woman, and slowly said.
"Shopkeeper, do you recognize this fabric? What is its origin?"
The moment Tang Yu took out the fabric, the woman's expression changed, and she said...
"Who exactly is your identity? This fabric seems rather ominous in my city of Handan."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yu slowly began to speak.
"Didn't I already tell you? He's from Xianyang City, and his name is Zhao Zilong."
"Zhao Zilong of Xianyang City?"
Upon hearing this, the woman immediately realized what was happening.
She slowly bowed to Tang Yu and began to speak.
"This humble woman, Li Mengyao, greets Lord Zhao."
Tang Yu quickly waved his hand.
"There are no adults here, they are just tourists."
Although Tang Yu said that, Li Mengyao didn't believe him.
Finally, a conflicted look appeared on her face. After pausing for a couple of seconds, she looked at Tang Yu seriously and said...
"If you're looking for this fabric, perhaps I do know something about it."
"However, if I say it, the consequences will be severe."
Judging from the woman's expression and words, Tang Yu knew that what she said was true.
Since the other party was able to stir up such a bloody storm in Handan City, how could they not have a powerful background and influence behind them?
Although this woman was a heroine, she was also just an ordinary citizen. If she were to be targeted by that group of people, she would definitely be doomed.
After thinking for a moment, Tang Yu immediately spoke.
"In that case, I'm willing to risk my life to guarantee your safety."
Even though Tang Yu said that, a hint of hesitation still appeared on the woman's face.
It wasn't that she hesitated about Tang Yu, but rather about whether or not she should say those words.
The other party's power was simply too great; she felt that even Tang Yu might not be able to afford to offend them.
But after much hesitation, she finally spoke slowly.
"In that case, I entrust my safety to you, sir."
"This fabric is made using a unique weaving technique found in my city of Handan."
"The fabric it produces is exceptionally smooth and even, making it feel even better to wear."
"However, this fabric seems to have disappeared for more than ten years. I wonder where you obtained it, sir?"
Upon hearing the woman's words, Tang Yu was taken aback at first, then a rather interested smile appeared on his lips.
Interesting! Very interesting!
This fabric has been extinct for over a decade!
Now it has even appeared in this city of Handan!
It also appears beside every person who dies mysteriously!
It's impossible that so many people didn't know this news, so why did these nobles and those who knew choose to keep it a secret?
Is there some secret involved?
As Tang Yu pondered, he looked at the woman in front of him and slowly asked.
"Could you tell me what exactly happened more than ten years ago, and why this fabric was lost?"
The woman's expression froze upon hearing Tang Yu's question.
She then looked at Tang Yu, gave a somewhat forced smile, and finally sighed before speaking.
"My lord, I want to tell you..."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yu immediately waved his hand.
"I'm really not an adult, just a tourist visiting Xianyang City."
"You can just call me Young Master Zilong."
Li Mengyao didn't know why Tang Yu insisted on doing this, but since Tang Yu had made a request, she agreed.
Finally, she hesitated and slowly opened her mouth.
"Young master, perhaps regarding the fabric..."
