Chapter 330: Recruiting Martial Artists

"Alright, everyone, to control all of Chenyang City, the first priority is to control all the Shops in Chenyang City. You all have experience in managing Shops, and now the most important thing is to get the Shops up and running." Qin Yuan patted the table to bring everyone's attention back.

"Right, right, managing the Shops." Everyone finally realized.

Shops are the most important financial source for a Family. Perhaps they don't yield as high returns as mining or hunting Demonic Beasts, but they have the advantage of being safe.

Additionally, besides the ordinary Spirit Stone income, each extra Shop increases our influence in Chenyang City. Therefore, the more Shops we control, and the better their locations, the greater the influence of the Qin Family in Chenyang City.

If the Qin Family can control eighty percent of the best-located Shops in Chenyang City, then the Qin Family will have completely taken control of all of Chenyang City.

Qin Yuan nodded and continued: "Now that our Qin Family has just arrived in Chenyang City, the entire city is watching us. We must not lose the prestige of our Qin Family."

"If anyone dares to cause trouble, kill them without mercy. Kill until all of Chenyang City is afraid."

Qin Yuan didn't need to think twice to know that since they had just arrived in Chenyang City and seized the Shops of the Zhang Family, Qu Family, and Sima Family, the interests involved were immense, and surely someone would take the risk to offend them.

"But…" an Elder swallowed hard, "But our Qin Family doesn't have enough Martial Grandmasters. What if we can't win?"

The Qu Family and Zhang Family were destroyed only yesterday. Their remnants likely haven't been cleared out yet. Just seizing these Shops is straining our manpower, let alone managing them.

Qin Ming sat below, looking at the Elders, and shook his head. Most of these Elders were only in the Martial Master Realm, which simply wasn't enough in Chenyang City.

Moreover, they were old and truly not suitable for managing Shops in Chenyang City. If it weren't for the fact that the Family really had no one else, Qin Ming would never have used them.

Just then, a Disciple of the Feather Transformation Sect walked in; it was Yang Shu.

Yang Shu walked up to Qin Ming and whispered: "Sect Master, the task you gave us has been completed."

Having said that, Yang Shu handed over a pile of Shop deeds.

Qin Ming took the Shop deeds, looked them over, stood up, and said loudly:

"Everyone, I have already sent people to take over the Shops of the Qu Family, Zhang Family, and Sima Family. You just need to go and manage them. If anyone blind enough causes trouble, tell me directly, and I will send people to deal with them."

"Good!" Qin Yuan gave Qin Ming an approving look and said to the Elders, "Are you relieved now?"

"We will obey the Family's orders!" The Elders stood up and bowed.

Qin Ming placed the deeds on the table and instructed: "Yang Shu, the Elders don't know the specific locations of the Shops. You lead the Elders to take over the Shops."

"Yes." Yang Shu accepted the order and immediately took the Elders away.

After the Elders left, Qin Ming said: "Father, these Elders have cultivation bases that are too low. They are no longer capable of handling the work in Chenyang City."

In Liu City, a Martial Artist in the Martial Master Realm is considered an expert, but in Chenyang City, Martial Artists in the Martial Master Realm are everywhere, and there are also many Martial Artists in the Grand Martial Master Realm.

Moreover, many of the people the Qin Family will be doing business with in the future will be Martial Artists in the Grand Martial Master Realm. These Elders simply lack the strength to control the Shops.

Even for the guards inside the Shops, Qin Ming planned to have them led by Martial Grandmasters. How could Martial Grandmasters possibly take orders from an elderly Martial Master?

"There is no other way. The younger generation of the Family has already started to be trained, but strength cannot be cultivated in a single day," Qin Yuan said helplessly.

Qin Ming smiled and said: "Father, we can recruit some Martial Artists first, and then wait for the Family's Martial Artists to be trained."

"Once we have the Shops, we can use the Spirit Stones earned from the Pill Shops to support the recruited Martial Artists, just like the Qu Family did. Most of the guards at their Ziyun Auction House were recruited Martial Artists."

Qin Yuan nodded and sighed: "It seems that is the only way. Although the loyalty of recruited Martial Artists is insufficient and their strength is uneven, in our current situation, we can only rely on recruiting Martial Artists for defense."
