Chapter 331: Chapter 324 Talisman_1
Despite Tang Yan’s not insignificant official position, within the city, he could only just barely be considered middle class.
Because the Tang Family lacked a true powerhouse and a strong economic foundation, Tang Yan was hardly different from the grassroots level.
If he wanted to establish relationships with some of the real power players in the city, he might not even make it through their doors.
There was no need to mention top-tier noble families like the Fang Family and the Lu Family. Even if Tang Yan’s official rank were to be raised by two more levels, he still wouldn’t catch the eye of these people. To put it more harshly, Fang Lian wouldn’t even give him a second glance.
Delivering a visitation card and having a steward receive him would already be considered good treatment.
There was virtually no chance that Fang Lian would meet with him personally.
The thresholds of top-tier noble families were infamously high.
After chatting with Tang Yan for a while, Qin Niu stood up to take his leave. Tang Yan accompanied him all the way to the steps outside the door, watching as he left with the half-grown water buffalo.
A different kind of brilliance shone on Tang Yan’s face, filled with anticipation for the future.
“Cai Xian really has a discerning eye! When she stubbornly insisted on marrying Qin Niu, I thought she was marrying beneath her, but now it seems she has actually married above her station. With Qin Niu’s influence, my Tang Family can completely soar high and rise several levels. When facing my colleagues, I’ll have that much more confidence in my heart.”
Qin Niu, on the other hand, was rather indifferent to power and influence.
In his eyes, as long as he could prolong his life by a few years, even if he were offered the position of the Black Tiger Gang Leader, he would not give it a second thought.
Walking on the streets in the early morning, he could feel the probing gazes hidden in the shadows.
He pretended not to notice them.
Today’s Third Office Judgment made him aware of the gap between him and Spirit Qi Realm powerhouses.
The short-distance teleportation technique of Elder Wen was truly masterful.
Their fighting power was likely to be extremely terrifying.
Though the Black Tiger Gang seemed to have been established not long ago, they had amassed a considerable amount of talent.
It was baffling what the Nine Insect Gang was thinking. Did they really fantasize about swallowing up such a powerful gang?
The best outcome would be chipping their own teeth.
It could very well end up with the Nine Insect Gang being counter-killed by the Black Tiger Gang.
In the previous battle by the river, the Shennong Sect must have suffered great losses.
What changes will happen next, he didn’t know for the time being.
War is full of uncertainties.
The battlefield situation also changes in a flash, and the current circumstances of the Black Tiger Gang were still cause for concern.
Qin Niu decided to go to the Cultivation Market to buy some more talismans.
As for elixirs, he was reluctant to spend that silver money.
Ordinary elixirs had little effect on him, and the prices of advanced elixirs were exorbitantly high.
Despite having over a hundred thousand silver money now, if he were to spend it on advanced elixirs, he would quickly be penniless.
It was most cost-effective to grow his own medicinal herbs and then pay Master Zi Zhou to refine them.
Before long, Qin Niu arrived at the Cultivation Market.
There were several talisman shops, but he was especially fond of Bei Bing’s talismans.
Entering the small shop, Bei Bing’s grandfather was nowhere to be seen, while Bei Bing herself was focused on drawing talismans with a talisman pen.
She was still in simple hemp clothes, her long hair scattered behind her, barefoot, giving her an exceedingly fresh and natural appearance.
Every time he saw her, it was as if he wasn’t looking at a person, but at a piece of natural scenery.
Her unique scholarly aura, mixed with the transcendental qualities of a cultivator who is detached from worldly desires, did not show beauty, but the celestial aura that a true fairy should possess.
“Hey! Bei Bing, drawing talismans again?”
Qin Niu greeted her with a smile.
Only in the presence of real friends did Qin Niu show his naturally unrestrained side.
“Yiya yiya!”
When she raised her eyes and saw Qin Niu, her face and eyes were full of surprise.
