Chapter 146 Changes in the Qin Family
Yangnan City is a county located two hundred miles west of Wolongzong. It is located on the main traffic road, so it is more prosperous. However, the richest and most powerful person in Yangnan City is not the city owner, but the Qin family.
Why is the Qin family richer and more powerful than the city lord? There are three reasons. First, the previous generation of owners of the Qin family was a very business-minded person. He did business in several counties. In addition, he was lucky and rich. Second, the former generation of the Qin family had a city owner of Yangnan City, which was more popular and stabilized its power. Of course, the most important thing is the third point. It is said that the Qin family also has a good relationship with Wolong Sect. One of the descendants has also entered Wolong Sect with his own strength. Although Wolong Sect is a martial arts sect, even a county guard should be careful and courteous.
In this way, although Yangnancheng has changed its owner, the Qin family is still indisputably the most powerful and richest person. However, all this seems to have changed recently.
On this day, three people came from outside Yangnan City. Two of them were young people, one big and one small. The small one was dressed in ordinary cloth. The skin was dark yellow and the appearance was ordinary, but the eyes were very bright and very bright. There was an inexplicable temperament when walking, like the clouds on that day, there was a kind of strange elegance. This big black dress, holding a feather fan, and his thin face was quite handsome. He gently fanned the feather fan in his hand and walked smoothly and unrestrainedly.
The third person is an old man with half-white hair and a cyan gown. The most eye-catching thing is the pair of goat beards on his mouth, which show some anger. When he walks, he seems to step hard at every step, but not even the slightest footsteps. What is a little surprising is that among the three people, the youngest young man walking in the front is the young man, and the old man stands on the right side of the young man, taking the next step a little slower.
These three people are Zhou Xing, Song Yu and Mo Qianglong.
Zhou Xing stopped and glanced at the city plaque. The three words "Yang Nancheng" were clearly visible. Zhou Xing recalled Qin Zhiyuan's figure in his mind. At the beginning, Qin Zhiyuan helped him leave Qiyun and gave him [Qingyun Umbrella]. If he had a chance, he would come back to visit his family and bring peace.
"When Qin Zhiyuan helped me, I don't know how he is now?" There was a trace of worry in Zhou Xing's eyes. Although Qin Zhiyuan did not help him, he could still rely on the power of Qiyun Zhenren, but it could not be denied that Qin Zhiyuan's kindness to him was very great.
"Brother, Uncle Mo, let's go in." Zhou Xing said, raising his feet and moving forward.
Behind him, Song Yu followed. Mo Qianglong blew his goatee and just glanced at Zhou Xing with one eye, but there was a little gratified in his eyes. Although he was willing to be Zhou Xing's slave in order to cultivate the truth, after all, the arrogance of the innate realm still existed. If Zhou Xing really called him a slave, he would never feel comfortable. I'm convinced, but on the way, Zhou Xing treated him with courtesy, which made him feel more comfortable.
The three of them entered the city, came to a hotel, and asked for some wine and vegetables. Mo Qianglong ate it rudely. While eating, he bragged and whispered, "This wine is the same as horse urine. It's really unpleasive."
Song Yu picked up his chopsticks, nodded a lot and said, "Oh... It turns out that Elder Mo has drunk horse urine, which is really admirable."
"Huh! Boy, for the sake of you as his younger brother, I don't care about you!" Mo Qianglong hummed and directly picked up the wine pot and poured it into his mouth.
Zhou Xing smiled. I don't know if the two are enemies. They like to fight twice when they have nothing to do, but Mo Qianglong always uses himself as an excuse to find a step down.
"Xiao Er." Zhou Xing greeted the little man who served the dishes.
"Young master, what would you like?" The little boy trotted over with a smile on his face. Zhou Xing threw a piece of broken silver to the little boy. After the latter took it, the smile on his face was even more prosperous.
"Do you know if there is anyone surnamed Qin in Yangnan City?" Zhou Xing asked.
"Surnamed Qin? Young master, there are a lot of people surnamed Qin in Yangnancheng. At least, there are 100 people. I said young master, you have to make it clear. The young dwarf bent down.
Zhou Xing pondered for a moment, his eyes lit up and said, "Tell me about the relatively rich Qin family here. By the way, do you know a person named Qin Zhiyuan?"
"Qin Zhiyuan, there seems to be some impression, but I can't remember it." The little man scratched his head and said, "The richer Qin family, it seems that only the Qin family in the East Lane is richer, and the others are quite ordinary."
Zhou Xing nodded. In his impression, Qin Zhiyuan's family was quite rich and could not be from an ordinary family. It seemed that there was no doubt that it was the Qin family in the East Lane.
"However, young master, something has happened to the Qin family in the East Lane recently." The little one said.
"Oh? What's the matter?" Zhou Xing was stunned and said strangely.
"It's a long story. The younger one has to work for the boss. The young master might as well go to the East Lane by himself." The little one said.
"Well, thank you very much." Zhou Xing nodded.
After a cup of tea, the three of them have come to the East Lane, which is extremely wide and can accommodate at least two carriages. The ground is paved with neatly polished slates. At a glance, a big house is reflected in front of them. The two red paint doors of this big house are two feet wide, and the two stone lions at the door are more than one person tall. The wall of the house occupies more than half of the side of this east alley, which is very elegant.
However, there was no door waiting at the door of the mansion. The door was half open. From time to time, there was a servant dressed up as a package. He carefully went out of the door and walked out quickly. Their faces were full of sadness, as if they were reluctant to leave but had to leave.
faintly, with Zhou Xing's ear power, you can hear some roars and curses, low crying, and some smashing sounds from the house.
Most of the people passing by looked at the big house and then sighed and shook their heads.
"I didn't expect that the former Qin family was so depressed." A middle-aged scribe sighed in a low voice when he passed by Zhou Xing.
"Excuse me, what happened to the Qin family?" Zhou Xing quickly asked the middle-aged scribe, and he was a little worried. After all, this is likely to be Qin Zhiyuan's home.
The middle-aged scribe took a look at Zhou Xing and the other three, hesitated for a moment and said, "The Qin family's family's property is not guaranteed, people's hearts are lax, and the family is broken." After saying that, he was ready to leave.
Song Yu seemed to take a casual step and walked in front of the middle-aged scribe, but blocked his way. Zhou Xing's eyes flashed, and then asked, "Then can you tell me the details of the Qin family?"
"It's useless to say more, but it will be realistic. The Yangnan City has changed, and the Qin family has no backer, so it is naturally difficult to survive. Little brother, I advise you not to talk about it more than this. The middle-aged scribe shook his head and said, making a concession and wanted to leave.
"Humph!" Mo Qianglong snorted heavily, with a trace of his heart. The middle-aged scribe was shocked all over, and his face immediately turned pale. The strong man in the innate realm, such a close distance, even a hum, is difficult for ordinary people to bear. My master asked you, if you don't answer carefully, I will tear you up!" Mo Qianglong stepped in front of the middle-aged scribe, looking fierce.
The middle-aged scribe was shocked and hesitated, but he didn't dare to say it clearly. Zhou Xing looked at Mo Qianglong in surprise and did not stop him. This was the first time that Mo Qianglong called him the master, which made Zhou Xing feel more comfortable at the same time.
"Why don't you say it!" Mo Qianglong stared at the middle-aged scribe fiercely.
"I said, I said." The middle-aged scribe said repeatedly, "A while ago, a big event happened in the county. Many people disappeared inexplicably. Yangnan City is not far from the scene of the incident, and everyone is in danger."
Zhou Xing muttered in his heart, why did he have anything to do with this matter again?
"Later, even Wolongzong lost many people because of this. Among them, there was an elder who had a lot to do with the Qin family. As soon as the elder died, the Qin family lost a backer. Moreover, it is said that the eldest son of the Qin family also disappeared in Wolongzong two years ago and could not be found. He thought he was dead. The owner of the Qin family also abandoned the family business a lot for this reason.
Some time ago, the city owner of Yangnan City suddenly said that the owner of the Qin family colluded with robbers, and then captured the owner. Then the owner's cousin took over the Qin family, but began to sell the property of the Qin family and drove the servants of the Qin family out one after another. Rumors, rumors..."
"What's the rumor!" Zhou Xing asked in a low voice. His face was already quite bad. He didn't expect that the Qin family had changed so much.
The middle-aged scribe hesitated for a moment and looked at Mo Qianglong. The latter blew the goatee and was so scared that he quickly continued: "It is rumored that this is a cooperation between the city owner and the current master. He wants to completely remove the Qin family from Yangnan City and then control the power of Yangnan City. The Qin family has been operating in Yangnan City for more than a hundred years, and the last city owner is also the Qin family. Therefore, many guards in Yangnan City are loyal to the Qin family. In addition, the Qin family is very good to the people and often benefactorous. Everyone also thinks that the Qin family is good..."
Hearing this, Zhou Xing thought for a while and roughly understood that the power of the Qin family in Yangnan City was too great to suppress the original lord of a city. The city owner was naturally unwilling. And the Qin family had a series of troubles. In this way, the city owner took the opportunity to enter. In the secular world, power and money can blind people's eyes. Even brothers who are connected by blood will kill each other. Now the owner of the family is just a cousin. As long as the city owner is intimidating and lure, it is easy to buy his heart.
"Okay, thank you very much, sir." For a long time, Zhou Xingdao.
The middle-aged scribe looked happy, but when he was about to leave, he turned his eyes to Mo Qianglong and was a little afraid.
"Why don't you go? It's talkative, and I don't know what you're talking about." Mo Qianglong shouted, and the middle-aged literati quickly walked around and trotted away.
Zhou Xing stared at the big house of the Qin family. For a long time, he said to Song Yu, "Brother, go and help me check if there is a Qin family named Qin Zhiyuan."
"Hmm." Song Yu nodded and left.
Then, Zhou Xing looked at Mo Qianglong and smiled. Suddenly, he had a small book in his hand and said, "Mr. Mo, this is a real way of practicing. I may stay here for a few days. You can go and have a look first, but remember not to leave it to others."
Mo Qianglong's eyes widened, grabbed the brochure, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
