NOVEL SIMPLE Chapter 104 The Qin Family in Yuyue City
This low-grade Xuan-level sky-piercing boat was lent to Zhan Nianchuan by Tong Dachuan. It is extremely fast. With this flying boat, it takes one day to reach Yuyue County.
After hearing about the abnormal changes in the number of disciples recruited by Lindan Peak, Li Xiaoqiang frowned and pondered for a long time, and put forward his own opinion:
"There must be something wrong here. I think we can talk to the county governor. As the head of a county, he should know a lot."
This answer made Zhan Nianchuan slightly disappointed, and he shook his head in denial.
"Xiaoqiang, alerting the enemy is the last option. Since we are here to investigate, it's best to stay silent."
Li Xiaoqiang nodded silently, as if he had some realization.
......
Feather Moon City.
Located in the southwest of Qingzhou, not far from Chuzhou, with convenient transportation and a large population, the city is very prosperous.
In such a big city, restaurants and bars are naturally indispensable.
At this time, on the second floor of Yaoyue Building, the largest and most impressive restaurant in Yuyue City, two young men were eating, with pig head meat in their mouths and roast goose in their hands.
The dozens of cups and plates placed in front of him were in a mess, and the dishes were swept away by them like clouds. Most of them fell into the belly of the handsome young man with slightly dark skin.
Everyone looked sideways, surprised at their appetite but also amused.
"I haven't eaten like this for a long time. It's really enjoyable."
Zhan Nianchuan wiped the grease off his mouth, called the waiter to come over and threw him two taels of silver, and then left the restaurant with Li Xiaoqiang and walked into the crowd of people.
"Brother Zhan, how can we investigate now so that it is both hidden and effective? Now is not the time to recruit disciples." Li Xiaoqiang felt that he had no idea where to start.
"There must be a way. You were just eating and didn't listen to the conversations of the diners?" Zhan Nianchuan said with a faint smile.
......
Nancheng District, where officials of all sizes in Yuyue City gather, is also home to some wealthy businessmen and wealthy families with backgrounds. Being able to live here is a symbol of status.
These rich people have money and status. They all spend a lot of money on their own courtyards, making each one more magnificent and larger than the other, striving to be better than other people's homes.
The Qin family is one of the richest families, and the Qin residence is a magnificent mansion compound covering an area of dozens of acres.
It is said that the Qin family has a monopoly on the entire salt and copper mining business in Yuyue County, and their hands and eyes are very good. Even the high-ranking officials in Qingzhou Mansion have friendships with his family.
At this time, the Qin family was extremely noisy. The broad copper-covered door was decorated with lights, and carriages and horses loaded with heavy goods came in and out from time to time. Everyone looked busy and happy.
Qin Shi stood at the door and loudly directed the carriages and horses to come in and out. He was naturally very proud to be the concierge of the wealthy Qin family and spoke with confidence.
In the entire Yuyue City, no matter who comes to the Qin residence and wants to meet the head of the family, they must be polite to him and do not dare to offend him in the slightest.
Over time, Qin Shi drifted away, and he developed the feeling that he was also a big shot. If you want to enter the gate of Qin's house, if you want to see the owner of the family as soon as possible, you have to show him some filial piety, otherwise you can just go and cool down.
Of course, Qin Shi still has a good eye. If a powerful person of great status really comes, he will instantly become well-behaved, busy in front of and behind the horse, and he looks like a loyal servant who works hard and doesn't complain.
While he was busy, a faint voice sounded:
"Is this the Qin Mansion?"
Qin Shi, who had been busy for a long time, quickly turned his head and saw two young people standing in front of him, wearing cloth clothes and cotton shoes, and looking dusty.
"Where did you guys come from? Didn't you see that Mr. Qin was busy? Let's go quickly. We have to visit relatives and come back in a few days."
Qin Shi yelled and cursed loudly, thinking that these two people were relatives of a servant in the mansion and came to make a living.
"Are you sure you want us to leave?" Zhan Nianchuan looked at Qin Shi indifferently, and a flame suddenly rose in his hand, illuminating Qin Shi's frightened eyes.
"Bang! Bang!"
Qin Shi knelt down and kowtowed as if pounding garlic. He was frightened and begged:
"The villain is blind and does not recognize the Immortal Master. I beg the Immortal Master to forgive me."
At this time, the entire Qin Mansion was alarmed. The people who gathered around were shocked when they saw all this, and they knelt on the ground in front of the gate.
"Little old man Qin Kailang pays homage to the immortal master!" A wealthy businessman covered in jewelry and with a big belly ran out of the door panting and knelt down neatly in front of Zhan Nianchuan.
"Are you the head of the Qin family?" Zhan Nianchuan looked at the fat man with a flattering face coldly.
The big fat man walked a few steps on his knees and replied uneasily: "To tell the immortal master, the little old man is the head of the Qin family."
"My junior brother and I traveled around the world and came to Yuyue City today. I see that your house is quite clean and tidy. I plan to rest here for a few days. Do you have any objection?"
Hearing this, Qin Kailang was ecstatic in his heart. Immortals are aloof and treat the world as dirt. They rarely interact with mortals. It is very difficult for the world to meet them.
Today, an immortal actually passed by Yuyue City and fell in love with his house. This is really a great joy.
Qin Kailang jumped up from the ground with joy, "No, no, Immortal Master, please come this way." He nodded and led the way, leading them into a spacious courtyard.
The houses inside are bright, with luxuriant flowers and plants, and a small green pond, which looks very elegant.
Zhan Nianchuan turned around with his hands behind his back, nodded to express satisfaction, and waved for Qin Kailang to leave.
"The prosperity of the secular world is really touching. No wonder many brothers have left the Xuantian Sect and become secular worshipers." Li Xiaoqiang picked up a fragrant pear on the stone table and took a bite, causing juice to splash everywhere.
"They have very poor qualifications and are unwilling to work hard to find opportunities. Naturally, they are willing to fall into the world and enjoy the joy of these decades."
Zhan Nianchuan smiled faintly. He respected this choice, but he would never miss the prosperity of the world for a moment. His obsession was to set foot on the immortal road to strengthen himself and enter the endless sea to kill the four demon clans.
Zhan Nianchuan's heart ached when he thought of his father.
"Brother Zhan, what should we do next?" Li Xiaoqiang was confused that Zhan Nianchuan did not go to investigate the case but went to the rich man's home to rest. He did not think that such wealth had anything to do with the decrease in the number of children with spiritual roots.
"Wait, wait for Qin Kailang's birthday." This answer made Li Xiaoqiang completely confused. He was embarrassed to keep asking Zhan Nianchuan, so he could only frown and think hard.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Zhan Nianchuan's powerful consciousness had already seen everything outside clearly, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Two charming and charming women in cool clothes entered the room. They were both in their prime years. They looked at Zhan Nianchuan with awe and shyness in their eyes and stepped forward to salute softly.
"This slave has met the Immortal Master. Please give me any instructions you need."
Zhan Nianchuan looked indifferent and said calmly: "Go out, I will give you instructions if necessary."
The two women showed obvious disappointment on their faces, bowed their heads and bowed, then walked out of the room and left.
"Brother Zhan is devoted to the Tao. These worldly women are just wishful thinking." Li Xiaoqiang couldn't help but feel swaying in his heart when he looked at these two women. He almost couldn't control himself. He admired Zhan Nianchuan's determination very much.
"What a pity." Zhan Nianchuan shook his head and sighed.
Li Xiaoqiang was confused. He asked tentatively: "Brother Zhan, what are you referring to?"
"My body is too strong, these ordinary women can't bear it." Zhan Nianchuan looked at a peach tree outside the window, his expression full of regret.
