Immortality: Raising an Ant Queen to Cultivate by increasing stat points

Chapter 366: Chapter 359 Family-Style Cultivation_1

“`

The disciples and elders of the Nine Insect Gang all possess this kind of waist plaque.

It is known as the Nine Insect Command.

“Elder Mei Qing!”

This was the old man’s name.

The surname Mei itself was very rare.

It turned out that this old man was indeed Elder Mei. Although Qin Niu had some suspicions long ago, he had never dared to be sure.

Now that he had seen this identity talisman, he dared to believe the person he had killed was Elder Mei.

He felt that Elder Mei’s strength seemed to be just slightly weaker than Elder Jiu Yin’s.

Elder Jiu Yin’s insects were endless, and he possessed several extremely formidable ones.

During the fight with Elder Mei, the most powerful insect that Qin Niu had seen was that black spider. There was also the black Gu that had invaded the body.

Perhaps they belonged to the same species.

After a thorough search, he found a bundle of gold notes and silver notes on the body, totaling about twenty-four thousand six hundred taels of Silver Money.

This was a huge fortune.

The Nine Insect Gang seemed very poor, but it turned out that each of its elders was loaded.

However, when one thinks about it, reaching the level of an elder and being among the high ranks of the gang, having less than thirty thousand taels on hand didn’t really count as particularly wealthy.

At most, they were just like the average landlord class.

Qin Niu naturally accepted his loot with a big smile.

Money talks.

With enough Silver Money, not only could one buy high-level cultivation resources, but also land and property, which allowed money to generate more money.

Among the spoils he had searched for, apart from the silver notes, there were also some elixirs and medicinal powders.

These included Healing Elixirs and elixirs that increased cultivation level.

But he did not find any Detoxification Pills.

Maybe it was because Elder Mei could fight poison with the black Gu, so he had no need for Detoxification Pills.

As for those two bottles of medicinal powder, he didn’t know what they were used for.

One was black, and the other red.

After opening the lids, a pungent and unpleasant smell could be detected.

“Mei Qing’s Insights on Insect Control!”

This was the only book he had found.

Quite substantial, it had over two hundred pages.

Qin Niu didn’t immediately look at it now. He worried that if too much time passed, his wives and concubines would become anxious.

Should they decide to find him in the mountains, with their weak strength, it was easy for dangers to occur.

Immediately, he carried Elder Mei’s body to the location of the Ancient Banyan Tree Maze and threw the body into the maze to nourish the Ancient Banyan Tree.

Having often taken its blood, Qin Niu felt he should express some gratitude and give it some return.

After disposing of the body, he returned home.

His two wives, along with Xiao Qing, were frantic, like ants on a hot pan, worried about Qin Niu having an accident.

Fortunately, Xiao Qing, knowing Qin Niu’s capabilities, managed to calm the two ladies down, so they had not rushed into the mountains to look for him.

Care leads to chaos.

Having married Qin Niu, he was their support in this world from then on.

“Ah Niu, you’re all right?”

Wang Wanyan seemed to prefer calling him by his nickname.

“What can possibly happen to me! I’m just tired after a day in the mountains, I’m going to take a bath.”

Qin Niu went to the inner room to store his loot properly.

After the bath, hot and steaming meals were already served on the table, waiting for him to have dinner together.

“Cai Xian specially stewed lamb for you, to make sure you refill your energy.”

Wang Wanyan placed the lamb in front of Qin Niu.

Upon hearing this, Tang Caixian’s charming face blushed with a hint of shyness.

Having taken two young and beautiful wives, Qin Niu surely needed to replenish his energy after the night’s exertions.

“Cai Xian, I’ll join you tonight. Let’s try for a healthy baby boy as soon as possible.”

Qin Niu teased her with a smile.

“`

“Ah… I’m so embarrassed! Let’s eat, hurry up and eat!”

When Tang Caixian and Qin Niu were alone together, she was absolutely passionate and unrestrained.

Now, in front of their family members, she felt embarrassed.

Which made Wang Wanyan cover her mouth and giggle nonstop.

“Don’t laugh, you also need to give me several children, and then our old Qin family won’t be so short on hands anymore, and we can quickly grow and flourish.”

Qin Niu had seen the depth of those large families and knew the importance of descendants.

No matter how strong an individual is, that strength could only last for a while.

If a family wants to remain powerful and not decline, then it must have continuous generations of descendants, one after another.

The closest relationship in the world should be that of blood ties.

Many people think lovers are the closest, and sure, when the relationship is good, couples or spouses are naturally very close. But if the relationship sours, they’re more terrifying than strangers—they become enemies.

But it’s rare for children and parents to become enemies.

With blood relation, as long as a child isn’t spoiled too much from a young age, most children understand gratitude.

And they naturally feel close to their parents.

Qin Niu wanted to grow into a ‘sky-touching great tree’ in this world, which couldn’t be done without a slew of outstanding descendants to support him. freёweɓnovel.com

In time, he would become the old ancestor of the Qin Family, and under his protection, his descendants would continue to expand the family generation after generation.

And they would provide him with a steady stream of resources for cultivation.

Even if he entered the Immortal Sect in the future, if his children were outstanding enough, they could also join him.

He trusted his own children far more than any disciple or underling.

“You bully, always picking on me and Cai Xian!”

Wang Wanyan was more reserved, and she was so shy she didn’t dare lift her head.

She hunched over her bowl, gobbling down her food.

“Haha, just teasing you. It would be wonderful to have a bunch of children, but if you don’t want to have that many, having one son and a daughter would also be great.”

Qin Niu looked affectionately at his two wives.

Serving food to both of them.

“Eat, eat more. From now on, Wanyan will take care of the household meals, and you can splurge a bit, don’t worry about me not being able to earn money as your husband. I’ll make sure you both are well-fed and chubby. Just don’t get so thin that you look like a rack of bones.”

As he spoke, Qin Niu took out several silver notes from his bosom and placed them in front of Wang Wanyan.

“Wanyan, this money is for our household’s food expenses. You and Cai Xian can pick some suitable maidservants, buy a couple if you find ones you like. They don’t need to do anything else, just help with washing clothes and cooking.

Xiao Qing is nominally my maidservant, but her main focus is on cultivation, acting as your personal bodyguard.”

Qin Niu made a series of arrangements.

Xiao Qing now had a cultivation level of the Acquired Realm, and she had learned both the Misty Rain Elusive Step and Seven-Star Sword Technique, plus she received a precious sword from Qin Niu’s reward, making it difficult for her to meet an equal opponent in this countryside.

Unless she encountered someone from the Innate Realm, that would be dangerous.

If she truly provoked someone from the Innate Realm, then Qin Niu standing behind Xiao Qing would take action.

Wang Wanyan set down her chopsticks and started counting the silver notes.

“My goodness, this is a total of eight hundred taels of silver. Husband, where did you get such a large sum of money?”

It seemed to her that Qin Niu didn’t do much ordinarily, but whether building a house or getting married, he always had endless money to spend.

“Didn’t we receive a lot of generous gifts at our wedding? That’s where the silver came from! Just spend it, and if it’s not enough, come to me for more.”

The money Qin Niu gave was just a drop in the bucket for him.

He now possessed over a hundred thousand taels of silver.

All together, it was probably close to one hundred and forty thousand taels.

He didn’t hand all this silver over to Wang Wanyan. It wasn’t that he didn’t trust her, but she was inexperienced and young; suddenly controlling such a vast fortune could easily lead to power without virtue.

If not handled well, it could attract disasters.

“Mmm, even though our family is now wealthy, we can’t just squander it. If we eat meat every meal, ten taels of silver a year should be surely enough for food expenses. The betrothal gift you gave my father, he already gave it all to me. He also handed over his savings from over the years. Combined with the money you gave me, I think when the land prices fall, we should buy some property.

Whether for renting out, or hiring people to farm it, we could earn a good amount of money each year.

And if we want to liquidate, we can always sell it.

Land is always solid currency.”

Wang Wanyan talked about financial management with a good head for business.

“No problem, let’s do it your way. Lately, there have been pest infestations everywhere – caterpillars, aphids, mole crickets – they’re all crazily destroying crops, making the people suffer. I don’t think it will be long before a lot of landlords and farmers sell their land cheaply, and then our family can take the opportunity to buy a great deal.”

Qin Niu was very supportive of his wife’s financial advice.
