Yuan Hong is an Urban Management officer who appears at the market with his cousin Zhao Qing. He interrupts Lin Feng's grape sales, claiming the grapes may contain harmful substances and confiscating them. He is aggressive and rude, but when the old beggar speaks to him privately, Yuan Hong turns pale, sweats profusely, and leaves in fear. He is clearly intimidated by Old Yun's supernatural abilities. He later tells Zhao Qing not to provoke Lin Feng again.
