Chapter 181: Chapter 176 The Side of a Petty Woman_1

Recently, it’s truly been a period full of troubles!

First came the floods, closely followed by a plague of insects, and the large families within the city are likewise restless.

Qin Niu could feel that it seemed a terrifying storm was about to arrive. Common folk merely wanted to get by with food and warmth, indifferent to these major events.

His strength had increased, yet it was very difficult for him to remain uninvolved.

With greater strength came more benefits, and this indirectly tied him deeper

to the Black Tiger Gang.

All the rich and powerful, it seemed, did not wish for anything to happen to the

Black Tiger Gang.

Otherwise, their good days would come to an end.

If the Black Tiger Gang were to be destroyed, the common folk would certainly be affected, but the most severe impact would undoubtedly be on the elite class.

In any dynasty, those who were in charge were never the common folk but the elite of society.

Power was held only in the hands of a few.

If the Black Tiger Gang were to fall, this region would face a reshuffling, and the situation would become even more turbulent. Many of the elites labeled with the mark of the Black Tiger Gang would probably not even have the chance to surrender.

As for who would dare to destroy the Black Tiger Gang?

This question was somewhat naive; apart from large families in the region like the Fang Family, there were also external forces that could annihilate the Black

Tiger Gang.

They were just looking for an opportunity to strike.

When Qin Niu returned to Shuangfeng Village, he felt the village was now simply a haven of tranquility.

The outside world was plagued with rampaging locusts, leaving people panic- stricken, whereas Shuangfeng Village, thanks to Qin Niu’s presence, succeeded in eradicating the locust disaster and had set up buffer zones at the entrance of the village.

Additionally, Daoyuan Village, with the help of Qin Niu’s three thousand ducks, successfully halted the advance of the Locust Army, forcing them to change their path and seek other routes.

Thus, this small area had become a rare place of purity.

The Yan Family also made significant contributions.

Masters Mo Sang and Shi Doudan, by stopping the locusts at the front, provided benefits to the ordinary people behind them as well.

As for those locusts that were blocked from their path and chose to wreak havoc in other villages, no one would bother about it.

Everyone was for themselves, and the frost on another’s roof was not their concern.

In the face of disaster, it was every man for himself, each relying on their own abilities to find ways to survive.

After returning home, the sky had completely darkened.

Xiao Qing was not at home.

This was by Qin Niu’s arrangement, as he had asked her to temporarily stay with Wang Wanyan during this time.

She had experienced life in society and knew how to please others.

As Wang Wanyan and Qin Niu had a very special relationship, she was naturally very fond of Xiao Qing, saying it was good to have Xiao Qing to keep her company.

“Master, it’s really you!”

Xiao Qing hadn’t slept at this hour; hearing some noise, she ran back from

Wang Furen’s house.

“Xiao Qing was worried about you and refused to sleep. She just kept watching out the window, and I couldn’t do anything with her.

Wang Wanyan, draped in a white robe, followed.

“This child is just like this, it’s not just you—I couldn’t persuade her either.

Qin Niu invited Wang Wanyan into his home.

“Xiao Qing, I’ve retrieved that set of leather armor for you. Try it on to see if it fits.”

Qin Niu gave her the small Pig King Armor.

“Wow, this is fantastic! Thank you, Master!”

Xiao Qing held the Pig King Armor, elated.

Though young, she was shrewd.

She naturally knew this was a good thing.

“Wan Yan, I’m giving you this Low-grade Contract Charm.”

He rarely used Low-grade Contract Charms anymore, so he might as well assist his sweetheart from time to time.

“This… You already gave me one last time, why are you giving me another one now!”

She felt embarrassed to accept it.

It used to be Qin Niu who was embarrassed to accept the food she gave him, but now the roles were reversed.

It was just that the items Qin Niu gave her were much more advanced.

Tempering Elixirs and Contract Talismans, those were high-grade cultivation resources.

“Someday when I’m capable, even if you want the stars in the sky, I 11 pluck them down for you.”

Qin Niu said with a smile.

“Hehe, since when did you learn to say such sweet nothings! Alright then, I’ll accept it.”

She laughed behind her hand and took the Talisman.

She treasured it and carefully put it away close to her.

For Qin Niu, such items were no longer precious. But in Wang Wanyan’s eyes, they were expensive gifts.

“How’s that cat that you tamed coming along?”

Qin Niu was usually too busy to concern himself with her Beast Taming affairs.

“It’s not too bad! I feel like it’s become more obedient than before.”

Hearing her answer, he nearly fainted.

Others trained beasts to earn money or to enhance their fighting ability, yet she went to all this trouble just to make her cat a little more obedient.

“Did I do something wrong?”

Seeing the expression on Qin Niu’s face, she asked somewhat sheepishly.

“You’ve done the right thing by communicating more with it, and it would be best if you gradually master the language of feline beasts. That’s a very important Beast Taming Skill. Then, you need to find a way to make it stronger. I’ll send some Boar King meat to you later. Besides eating it yourself, you can feed it to the cat too; it should help the cat grow stronger rapidly.

Compared to her, Qin Niu was no newbie.

He had accrued some experience in insect control and beast taming.

“You need to find ways to make it stronger, preferably evolve some special abilities. You can take it to hunt some small wild animals, like mountain rats, rabbits, and so on. Its fighting ability can only grow through being tempered. If trained well, in fights with beasts of the same size, your cat should be an invincible force.”

Qin Niu guided her with a general direction for nurturing.

Her family was just moderately wealthy, with Wang Furen’s assets probably totaling two to three hundred taels of Silver Money.

At most around four hundred taels.

Unless Wang Furen was very secretive, he might possess more wealth.

However, with Wang Furen’s character, if he really had a lot of Silver Money, it’s unlikely he’d only purchase a dozen acres of good land.

After all, silver left as is will always remain as silver, but buying land can make money generate more money-

in modern society, a large proportion of people’s wealth comes from real estate. Not only can buying a house appreciate in value, but it can also generate rental income.

In this world where everyone can cultivate, the best financial strategy for common folk is to buy land.

They can grow grains, cash crops, or rent it out to others and collect rent, all being very good ways to profit.

Wang Wanyan wants to become a Beast Tamer, and given her family’s average financial situation, finding her own way to obtain cultivation resources is the right move. By staying at home, that cat would forever remain the same.

“I, I also thought about taking it hunting, but I’m not familiar with the mountains. And I dare not go out at night even more. When you have time, can you take me hunting in the mountains?”

Her cultivation wasn’t weak, but at this moment, she unexpectedly showed a side of her that was softly feminine.

“Not a problem at all. Shall we go to the mountains tonight?”

“Maybe we should wait until tomorrow daylight! I’m still a bit scared.”

She said with a flushed face.

Girls naturally fear the dark and are even more afraid to venture into the mountains deep into the night.

Their courage is significantly less than that of men.

“Fine then, I’ll take you into the mountains tomorrow morning. Xiao Qing can also come along to keep you company.”

Qin Niu felt that her showing vulnerability made her seem more real.
