The Qin family in Xicheng is the largest raw silk merchant in Tianyang City. They are mainly engaged in the raw silk business, including Tian silk, gold silk, blue silk, ghost silk, etc., a variety of weaving materials, also refining materials.

These silk materials such as heavenly silk, golden silk, and blue silk are mostly used by immortal cultivators to refine magic clothes, magic weapons and other items in the cultivation realm. For example, the vestments and storage bags made of gold silk as the main material have the effect of shielding the divine sense; The vestments or storage bags made of blue silk have the effect of being inviolable from fire and water; The magic clothes and magic weapons refined with heavenly silk have the effect of invulnerability.

Although these kinds of raw silk operated by the Qin family are not very rare, if they are required in large quantities, they are not so easy to obtain.

Because, the silkworms, golden silkworms, blue silkworms, ghost silkworms and other silkworms all require different special methods to be raised. Moreover, they are not as simple as eating mulberry leaves, their food is all rare mulberries that are not common, and they are also rare spirit plants that only exist in the cultivation realm. At the same time, in the process of growing, they also need to be fed with a large number of spirit stones.

Therefore, feeding these xenomorphic silkworms is not an easy task and requires a lot of resources. The Qin family in Xicheng has mastered this sericulture technology. In the countryside outside the city, they have a small manor house where there are special people to raise these silkworms for the production of raw silk.

The Qin family's silkworm raising technology was handed down from their ancestors and never passed on. Therefore, the Qin family has monopolized this raw silk business for hundreds of years, and no one can replace it.

The major sects in the cultivation realm, when they need to use all kinds of raw silk, they all need to go to the shops of the Qin family to buy it. Therefore, the Qin family also has a relationship with many Xiuzhen sects.

Tianyang City is under the jurisdiction of the Tianyang Sect, so the Qin family, the largest raw silk merchant in the city, is naturally indispensable to get closer to the Tianyang Sect.

The Qin family not only provides all kinds of raw silk materials for the Tianyang Sect at a low price every year, but Qin Can, the head of the Qin family, also sent his beloved baby son Qin Taibao to the Tianyang Sect as a disciple.

The people of the Tianyang Sect, in order to be able to reap the benefits of the Qin family, will naturally be within the scope of their ability to open the door for the Qin family.

Therefore, the Qin family in Xicheng can be regarded as a well-known local tyrant in Tianyang City.

With the protection of the Tianyang Sect, the Qin family is also arrogant and domineering in Tianyang City. Anyway, as long as they don't make any big mistakes and don't harm the interests of the Tianyang Sect, then the city lords of Tianyang City will turn a blind eye and ignore them most of the time.

The person who drove into and killed Old Man Zhang on the street in the city today was Qin Feng, the second brother of Qin Can, the head of the Qin family.

Qin Can, the head of the Qin family, has a total of four brothers, Qin Can is the eldest, the second is Qin Feng, the third is Qin Chi, and the fourth is Qin Yan. They have four brothers, the eldest is good at collecting money, the second is good at pretending to be a score, the third is good at gambling, and the fourth is good at beauty. Therefore, Qin Can, who likes to accumulate wealth, was elected as the head of the family, while the other three brothers who would only lose the family were not selected.

Qin Feng likes to pretend to be forced to put on music, so he makes a big show every time he travels. The luxurious carriage and the attendants are all luxurious and extravagant, and they are very pompous. Therefore, the residents who have lived in Tianyang City for a long time, as soon as they saw such a big pomp and circumstance on the street, they already knew without guessing that it must be the second Qin Lao of Xicheng.

Therefore, after Qin Feng's carriage hit and killed Old Man Zhang, it was not unusual for him to be recognized by Mrs. Zhang.

But when the city lord heard that Qin Feng had killed someone, his heart twitched, he intended to protect the Qin family, but after all, this was already a dead person's business, and it didn't seem to be easy to deal with.

So, he was sloppy, deliberately saying that Mrs. Zhang had taken a look.

But since Mrs. Zhang is here, she naturally won't give up, she still wiped her tears and said: "Although the old body is old, she still knows the second team of the Qin family. What's more, at that time, I was not the only one on the street who saw him driving and hitting people. If the lord of the city doesn't believe it, send someone to the street and ask casually to find out whether what the old man said is true or false. ”

Lian Zhaocai rolled the pair of bull's eyes, thinking, it seems that it is not possible to fool the past, after all, so many people on the street are watching, so he said: "Okay, since you think that the second child of the Qin family killed the old man of your family, then, what are you going to do?" ”

When Mrs. Zhang heard this, she hurriedly saluted again and said, "City Lord, I just want the second child of the Qin family to come and fight for my old man, otherwise my old man will die too unjustly." I hope that the lord of the city can make decisions for the small people! ”

After hearing this, Lian Zhaocai shook his head and dissuaded: "According to the city rules of my Tianyang City, only those who intentionally kill people to death will be punished for resisting their lives. If it is a death by negligence, then the sin is not unto death. I think the second child of the Qin family definitely didn't want to deliberately kill the old man of your family, in that case, he wouldn't be punished with death. I see that you are old and frail, and you are lonely, so I suggest that you better let the Qin family compensate you with some money, which is enough for you to spend your old age in peace. ”

Mrs. Zhang immediately cried again, and said, "Lord of the city, my old man died unjustly!" I don't want any money, I just want that Qin Lao Er to fight for my old man! ”

Lian Zhaocai glared at the bull's eye and said loudly: "You old woman, it's really unreasonable!" Since you don't want money compensation, wait for me to investigate the specifics first. You should go home and wait for news for the time being, and then I will inform you when I find out the truth. ”

Xiao Ding, who had been standing below, had already heard the meaning of Lian Zhaocai's protection. When he heard Lian Zhaocai say that he would wait until he found out the truth to give Mrs. Zhang an explanation, he knew that even if he finished investigating what had happened, he would not condemn Qin Lao Er to death. So, he immediately took two steps forward, came to Mrs. Zhang's side and said, "Old man, I also think that you can claim some money from the Qin family, which is enough for you to spend your old age in peace, and there is no need to investigate the capital crime of the second Qin family." ”

In Xiao Ding's opinion, whether or not Qin Lao'er's capital crime can be cured depends on Lian Zhaocai's words. And it seems that it is impossible for Lian Zhaocai to treat Qin Lao Er's capital crime for the sake of an old lady he doesn't know.

In this case, Mrs. Zhang might as well claim some money, enough for her to spend her old age in peace. Anyway, the Qin family is not bad for money, and it should not be difficult for the city lord to come forward and ask for compensation to give the old lady some money. What's more, this old lady is old, even if she can live, she won't be able to live for many years.

If Mrs. Zhang insists on asking Qin Lao Er to take his life, and does not agree to claim money, then it is very likely that she will end up with both people and money.

Therefore, Xiao Ding came forward to dissuade Mrs. Zhang from changing her mind.

Mrs. Zhang raised her teary eyes and looked at Xiao Ding, and knew that Xiao Ding persuaded her with good intentions, but she was very uncomfortable in her heart, and still cried and said: "My old man died unjustly!" ”

Xiao Ding comforted again: "Si Ren has passed away, people can't be resurrected after death, even if you let that Qin Lao Er fight for your old man's life, your wife won't be alive now, right?" So, I advise you, it's better to claim more money. ”

At this time, Lian Zhaocai, who was sitting on the main seat, saw that Xiao Ding also went to persuade the old lady, so he continued: "I said that old woman, if you just want to claim some money, I can make the decision for you now and go to the Qin family to ask for it, what do you think?" ”

After listening to Xiao Ding's words, although Mrs. Zhang still felt a little aggrieved in her heart, she had lived for such an age, and she could naturally see that it was probably impossible for the city lord to kill Qin Laoer. It seems that now it is only a matter of claiming some money.

So, she had no choice but to nod helplessly and said, "Then follow the arrangement of the city lord." ”

After hearing this, Lian Zhaocai nodded and said, "If you had been so knowledgeable about current affairs earlier, this matter would have been solved a long time ago." Okay, you go down first, and when I help you get compensation, I'll send someone to send it to you." ”

"Thank you, Lord Castle!" After Mrs. Zhang gave Lian Zhaocai a salute, she silently turned around and retreated with tears in her eyes.

Xiao Ding also sighed helplessly.

This kind of collusion between officials and businessmen and taking advantage of legal loopholes is not uncommon in both the modern society before the time travel and the ancient society after the time travel. Xiao Ding has seen a lot of similar things. Now that I have come to the Otherworldly Continent, there are still similar things happening, which shows that as long as there are people living in the place, there will be people who are sophisticated. If someone is sophisticated, it is inevitable that there will be collusion between officials and businessmen, after all, their interests are tied together.

For this kind of thing, Xiao Ding is not surprised, even if he wants to manage it, he can't do anything.

He is just an outer disciple of the Tianyang Sect, a nobody, not even an inner disciple, what right do he have to interfere in the affairs of the elders of the sect?

After Mrs. Zhang left, Xiao Ding and several other outer disciples also retired one by one. In the courtyard of the accommodation arranged for them by the City Lord's Mansion, Xiao Ding met Li Tianliang, Deng Feng and Shan Tong.

The three of them had already come to Tianyang City, and they had already contacted the goods of the Golden Silk, which were actually purchased from the Qin family in Xicheng.

Because of the relationship between Lian Zhaocai and the Qin family, the price of the golden silk that Li Tianliang and the others bought was very low.

Although the goods have already been contacted, Li Tianliang and the others have too few people this time, and it is indeed not easy to transport more than ten truckloads of golden silk back to Tianyang Mountain.

The path between Tianyang City and Tianyang Mountain is mostly a mountain road in the wilderness, crossing mountains and mountains, it is difficult for cars and horses to travel, and it is really impossible to take care of it if there are few people. Moreover, on the way, you may encounter some loose cultivation, and you will covet the golden silk.

After all, this golden silk is also very expensive for others. Moreover, gold silk is a very good refining material, when refining magic weapons and magic weapons, adding a little gold silk can play a role in shielding the detection of divine sense.

Casual cultivators usually have limited resources, and it is very difficult to buy various materials and pills for cultivation by accumulating spirit stones. Therefore, they often take risks and go out to grab other people's resources, which is far easier than making money to buy them themselves. However, going out to rob is just as risky, if you don't get it right, you will kick it on the iron plate, and you will lose your own life.

stayed in the City Lord's Mansion for one night, and early the next morning, Xiao Ding, Li Tianliang and other outer disciples were led by the four inner disciples under the Lianzhao Cai seat, and drove the carriage prepared in advance to the treasury of the Qin family in Xicheng.

In the treasury of the Qin family, the golden silk sold to the Tianyang Sect had already been prepared, and there were several large stacks in total.

Under the command of the four inner disciples, Xiao Ding and the outer disciples carried the large stacks of gold silk to the car one by one, and stacked them.

During the loading of Xiao Ding's car, Xiao Ding suddenly felt that a figure flashed in the corner of the wall not far away, and when he straightened up and looked at the corner, he didn't see anything.

Hey, could it be that I was dazzled?
