Chapter 313: Chapter 313: Encountering a Problem_1

Zhang Xian smiled without answering and turned to go downstairs.

He didn’t know any magic at all. He just stored Mu Cheng’s panties into his storage ring. If one was not a cultivator, they would have trouble finding any clues on him.

"Hey..."

Mu Cheng chased after him, "Why aren’t you talking?"

Zhang Xian curled his lips, "You’re so stingy that you wouldn’t even allow a kiss. How can I tell you my secret?"

Mu Cheng slapped her forehead in disbelief.

Could this guy stop thinking about kissing all day? Would he die if he didn’t kiss?

"Mu Cheng, have you found your underwear?"

In the living room, Fu Meiting saw that Mu Cheng had come and asked with a smile.

"Um! Found it." Mu Cheng nodded. When she realized what had just happened, her face changed and a hint of red quietly crept up her lovely face.

She had just responded without thinking too much. When she came to her senses, she realized that she had been tricked by Fu Meiting. That girl was not an easy one to deal with!

"Pervert." Fu Meiting stood up and went upstairs.

"Rogue." Duan Hong glanced at Zhang Xian and followed Fu Meiting up the stairs.

Dong Qian gave Zhang Xian a glance without saying anything and went into a room beside the stairs, her rosy face lowered.

"Uh..." Zhang Xian’s mouth twitched unnaturally. Looking at Mu Cheng, he asked, "What should I do? They all think I’m a pervert now. Shouldn’t you compensate me?"

Mu Cheng was angry, "Can you blame me for this? Who asked you to take my underwear?"

Zhang Xian rubbed his nose, wanting to say something else.

Seeing this, Mu Cheng quickly turned around and ran upstairs at lightning speed, not giving Zhang Xian a chance to tease her.

"Ai..."

Zhang Xian sighed, sat down by the couch, and turned on the TV.

...

That night, a starry moonlit sky.

Somewhere in the Sunset Forest, the grounds before a certain building.

A number of people were standing attentively, split into three rows, forming a circle, their gazes locked onto a middle-aged man in the middle.

The man who was the center of attention had his hands behind his back and a face full of arrogance. It was none other than the boss of the Mu Family.

As his gaze swept over his crowd, he said coldly, "I called you all here tonight because I have something to explain. Listen closely."

"Yes..." Many answered in unison.

The boss nodded satisfactorily, "Tomorrow, a guy might show up and lay claim to your territory. I need you all to just ignore him. No matter what he says or does, treat him as if he does not exist. Anyone who disobeys, well, you know the consequences."

"Yes..." Again the crowd answered in unison.

They were just regular people harvesting medicinal herbs, their lives in Sunset Town depend on the Mu Family’s shelter. The Mu Family, as one of the four major forces in Sunset Town, was not something they could afford to offend.

The Mu Family’s people treated them somewhat poorly, using them like dogs or swine. However, for the sake of their livelihood, they had no choice but to bear with it

Most residents of Sunset Town were wealthy, and these herb gatherers were the most looked down upon.

"Alright, that’s it. Dismissed!" The boss waved his hand.

At his words, the crowd immediately scattered like birds.

The old boss sneered and walked towards the Maserati parked not far away.

A nobody from nowhere dares to go against the Mu family? Doesn’t he know how to spell ’death’?

...

The next day, early morning, after breakfast.

Zhang Xian gave a few instructions to Dong Qian, Fu Meiting, and Duan Hong, then left with Mu Cheng to check out the mountain.

He had declared his intentions yesterday at the Mu Mansion, he would reclaim Mu Cheng’s territory today. There were a lot of herbs he needed and he wasn’t about to let this resource be taken by others.

As he sat in the passenger seat of the Audi, Zhang Xian asked, "Elder Sister Cheng, how do the medicine gatherers work here? And how many of them are there?"

Mu Cheng said, "There is no fixed number, sometimes more, sometimes less, usually around three hundred people. They are divided into groups and assigned areas. Every six people in a group, they hand in the medicinal herbs every ten days. The income of a month depends on the quantity and preciousness of the herbs, just like piecework in factories. However, we have an additional level of preciousness here."

Zhang Xian frowned, "Given the division into groups and areas, there must be a lot of disputes, right?"

Mu Cheng said, "Definitely. Although we have divided areas, they might not faithfully stay within their areas. Fights often break out among herb gatherers over resources. Also, these fights are not just internal, there’s also encroachment from outsiders. As the weakest group, we often suffer bullying from the Qiu and Shu families, causing significant losses."

"This approach won’t work." Zhang Xian shook his head and said, "Once we take over, we need to come up with a better collection method. We can’t let internal strife happen."

Mu Cheng nodded, "Yes, that’s also what I’m thinking. But in Sunset Town, these herb collectors are the most despised. Unfortunately, most of the residents here are wealthy and look down on others, they don’t care about the life and death of the herb collectors. All they care about is the quantity and quality of the herbs they get. They won’t bother about the method or the means."

"Wow, these guys are really something!" Zhang Xian gave a cold smile and said, "But, this place will be completely changed because of me in the future."

Mu Cheng let out a bitter smile, "You! Just help me deal with the current troubles. Don’t think too much. It’s not easy to meddle with the affairs in Sunset Town."

"Elder Sister Cheng, do you think I came from far away for such a trivial matter?" Zhang Xian shook his head, "If I hadn’t come over, it would be okay, but now that I’m here, I’m definitely going to unify the herb collection in Sunset Town. In the future, all the herbs here will be distributed from your hands and directly transported to the Lingxiao Mansion in Tiandu, without adding any other retail outlets."

Mu Cheng was surprised and said, "You... you want to unify the herb collection in Sunset Town?"

Zhang Xian nodded and asked, "Don’t you believe it?"

Mu Cheng smiled and didn’t answer.

She knew what kind of person Zhang Xian was. Although he usually plays pranks, when it comes to serious matters, he’s very serious. She didn’t think he was joking.

However, to unify Sunset Town with one person’s power, it’s not that she doesn’t believe in Zhang Xian’s strength, but this task is quite difficult.

If unification was so easy, would Sunset Town be in its current state? You should know that wild herbs is a lucrative industry, and countless people want to get a piece of the pie.

Nevertheless, many people have come, but no one has succeeded. As a result, no one dares to come now.

Zhang Xian saw that Mu Cheng didn’t believe him, but he didn’t explain it, nor did he need to. Such matters are best proven with results and true strength.

"We’re here, let’s get off the car!"

Soon, the Audi pulled into a large clearing and stopped in front of a large building.

After getting off the car, Mu Cheng saw a middle-aged man walking over, she stepped forward and asked, "Uncle, who’s in charge here? Can you take me to meet him?"

The middle-aged man glanced at Mu Cheng, remembered his boss’s instructions from the night before, and without responding, he quickly ran off.

"What’s going on?" Mu Cheng wrinkled her brow, she asked a few more people, but the result was the same.

Zhang Xian gave a wry smile and stepped forward, "No need to ask anymore. The people from the Mu family must have warned them already. The people here will ignore us; they don’t dare to deal with us."

Mu Cheng asked, "What should we do? To take control of this place, the first thing we have to do is control the herb collectors! Otherwise, we won’t get any herbs at all."

"These are all hard-luck guys, there’s no need for us to create trouble for them." Zhang Xian gave a cold smile, "If we’re going to create trouble, let’s take it up with the Mu family."

Mu Cheng nodded, feeling that Zhang Xian made sense.

She’s not like the people in the Mu family, who dehumanize these herb collectors. She can’t bring herself to do such a thing.

"Brother, why... why are you here?"

Suddenly, a young man ran over with a surprised look on his face and asked Zhang Xian.

Zhang Xian turned his head, "Why are you here? Could it be that you want to use the power of the Mu family to help you escape from the Black Fist Club?"

The young man gave an awkward smile and said, "Brother, I... I didn’t mean that. I’m originally working here. My father is the captain here."

"You... you work here?" Zhang Xian was actually surprised.

The young man nodded, "Brother, I really appreciate what you did for me yesterday. I won’t gamble anymore, I won’t go there anymore."

Seeing that the young man worked here and his father was a team captain, Mu Cheng quickly gave Zhang Xian a meaningful look.

The so-called team captain is the leader here, and each area only has six team captains. If they can win over a team captain, they will have made significant progress.

Zhang Xian understood what Mu Cheng meant and was about to inquire about the situation here.

At this moment, a middle-aged man suddenly ran over, glaring at the young man and asked, "Wang Zhong, what are you doing here? Hurry up and pack up, come with me to the mountain."

Wang Zhong said, "Dad, these are my friends."

Wang Chuan Xiong frowned, then looked at Zhang Xian and asked, "What are you doing here? If you’re here to buy herbs, we don’t sell them."

Zhang Xian laughed and said, "Uncle, we’re not here to buy herbs. The area you’re in charge of originally belonged to the lady behind me. She’s the actual owner of this area."

"You..." Wang Chuan Xiong was stunned, pulling Wang Zhong away, "Stinky boy, come with me to the mountain."

Wang Zhong said, "Dad, they are my friends! And they saved me."

"What friends?!" Wang Chuan Xiong angrily shouted, "Have you forgotten what happened yesterday? Can we afford to mess with the Mu family?"

Wang Zhong is not a disloyal person, otherwise, he would have run away long ago disregarding his father. Because he offended the Black Fist Club due to private matters, the Mu family won’t protect him, and it won’t concern their reputation.

But Wang Chuan Xiong kept pulling him. Although he wanted to help Zhang Xian, he couldn’t do anything about it.

"The guys from the Mu family really warned them?" Mu Cheng noticed that as soon as Wang Chuan Xiong found out she was there to reclaim her territory, he left immediately. Her face suddenly turned grave.

Before, she thought that the people from the Mu family would consider their family ties to some extent, but now it seems that she underestimated their cold-blooded nature, and they still refuse to let go.
