Chapter 273: Spreading Through the City
In an ordinary inn in Chenyang City, it was already packed with people early in the morning.
"Have you heard? The Qu Family's Ziyun Auction House was robbed by a group of thieves yesterday!" a short-haired man whispered to a man in black beside him.
"You're only just finding out? This matter has already spread throughout Chenyang City. I heard that group of thieves had high martial arts skills; they went in, killed the manager of the Ziyun Auction House, and made off with the goods inside."
The man in black took a sip of tea and said.
"The Ziyun Auction House is heavily guarded, and the guards are all in the Martial Master Realm, with even a Martial Grandmaster stationed there. What kind of thieves do you think would have the power to rob it?"
The short-haired man asked in confusion.
The man in black whispered, "This matter has already spread everywhere. It was done by the Zhang Family. In the entire Chenyang City, only the Zhang Family has this kind of strength. If it wasn't them, who else could it be?"
Hearing this, the short-haired man nodded in deep agreement.
At another table nearby, a man and a woman were drinking tea.
"Brother, the Ziyun Auction House—was such a large Auction House really robbed?" Qin Qing asked curiously.
Qin Ming nodded: "This news has spread throughout the city; it cannot be false!"
"Was it done by the Zhang Family?" Qin Qing disliked the Zhang Family, and now that she heard something related to them, she was a bit curious.
Qin Ming smiled slightly and said: "Whether it was them or not has lost its meaning. Looking at the Qu Family's attitude, they intend to pin this crime on the Zhang Family. If it was the Zhang Family, then it was the Zhang Family. If it wasn't the Zhang Family, it's still the Zhang Family!"
"Was it actually the Zhang Family or not?" Qin Qing didn't understand and said, "If it was the Zhang Family, I hope they get thrown into jail and locked up for a few days."
Qin Ming laughed. The issue now wasn't as simple as being locked up for a few days.
Judging by the Qu Family's posture, they wanted to annex the Zhang Family and take over Chenyang City.
"Little sister, do you think Chenyang City is good?" Qin Ming suddenly asked.
"Of course Chenyang City is good. There is delicious food here, fun things to do, and the things for sale are much more numerous than in Liu City." Qin Qing tilted her head, thought for a moment, and replied.
"Chenyang City is good!" Qin Ming took a sip of tea, looked at the bustling street, and said, "The resources here are richer, and there are more Martial Artists; it has much greater development potential than Liu City."
"Brother, why are you asking this? Are we moving?" Qin Qing asked.
"You could say that!" Qin Ming nodded.
"That's great!" Qin Qing smiled, "After the Qin Family moves here, I can come out every day to eat delicious food!"
Qin Ming teased: "Aren't you afraid that if you get fat, you won't be able to get married in the future?"
"You're fat, you're the one who's fat! I am naturally beautiful; no matter how much I eat, I won't get fat!" Qin Qing put her hands on her hips and said triumphantly.
"Having said that, when exactly is our Qin Family moving to Chenyang City? And what about Liu City? Are we just going to abandon Liu City?" Qin Qing asked.
Qin Ming shook his head and said: "The Qin Family still wants Liu City; that is the root of our Qin Family, how could we throw it away? It's just that with our current strength, the Qin Family cannot fully develop in Liu City, so most of the Clan Members will come to Chenyang City to develop. As for Liu City, it will serve as a place for our Qin Family to retire in the future!"
"I heard that moving house can lead to many disputes. What should we do about that?" Qin Qing asked worriedly.
When a new Family moves to another city, the local families often resist. Qin Ming was a bit worried that if the Qin Family moved to Chenyang City, they would be bullied by the families here.
Especially the Zhang Family; they would, nine times out of ten, target their Qin Family.
