Chapter 150: Demanding money

The Southwall Tavern was the most famous tavern in the South City of Daiyu. Manager Lyu Qiying had been overseeing the place for many years. He used the profits earned from selling liquor to launch a money lending business. And after earning even more, he started to save money for others, and established his own underground bank.

People who save money only believe in people who have more money. Shopkeeper Lyu was impeccable in this respect. The rare and precious wines in his taven were the best guarantee of this.

Wealth begets power. Shopkeeper Lyu obtained the favor of both Golden Roc Fort and the Meng family. He kept scores of first-rate machetemen, many of whom were carefully selected by Cripple Tie before his death. Each of these men was excellent value for money.

So, for many years, this was the first time, someone had brought a sword into the tavern.
