Upon hearing the Cultivator's words, everyone's expression changed. Before, Zhao Hai only suspected that the Liu Family had robbed their shop. Therefore, everyone had some grudges against Zhao Hai for attacking the Liu Family. They thought that Zhao Hai was taking things for granted. Destroying a local Big Family just because of a suspicion wasn't a good thing for the Four Righteous Gang. Although the Four Righteous Gang obtained a lot of benefits, it also proved that Zhao Hai was a combative person.
Being combative wasn't a good thing. If a person was too combative, then they would die very quickly. And if the leader of a small gang like the Four Righteous Gang was too combative, then the gang wouldn't last long.
But this grudge completely disappeared. They didn't think that the Liu Family would really rob their shop. No wonder Zhao Hai was so determined to deal with the Liu Family.
But don't forget, the Liu Family only controls half of the city. Our pharmacy is in the other half of the city. But when the incident happened to our pharmacy, the Liu Family immediately came to our pharmacy and took control of it. On the surface, there seems to be no problem with them controlling the scene. But when we showed our identity, they still didn't let us in. Because of this, I suspected that they were cleaning up the traces left behind by the robbers. So when the two Cultivators were arguing, I swept the store with my spiritual force and found that it was very clean. Although there were some traces of fighting, there weren't any useful clues. Because of this, I immediately concluded that the Liu Family must have a secret relationship with the robbers, so I directly made my move. "
After hearing Zhao Hai, everyone understood why Zhao Hai suddenly made a move against the Liu Family. It turns out that Zhao Hai was already confident. Zhao Hai looked at them and said, "Actually, I'm going to do this even if I'm not confident. This is because our Four Righteous Gang needs to establish our prestige. Now that our Four Righteous Gang has just started to develop, we still need to rely on these pharmacies for our future development. If we don't fight back, then other people will think of us as a fat piece of meat that anyone can take a bite out of. When that time comes, our Four Righteous Gang will be in more trouble."
Everyone nodded. Then Zhao Hai said, "Alright, let's go down and take over the Liu Family. Tiger's Might, you stay here and take inventory of the Liu Family's belongings. I'll return to Marshu Planet and ask Tian Jian to contact Elder Tang. We need to deal with the big force behind the Liu Family as soon as possible. Otherwise, we won't be able to stay in Meteorite City for long. Laura, you stay here with your large artifacts. If there are any changes, withdraw our people." The group nodded. Then Zhao Hai turned around and entered the transmission formation. With a flash of white light, he disappeared.
After seeing Zhao Hai leave, Tiger's Might immediately organized a team to check the Liu Family's belongings. Because Zhao Hai's attack was too sudden, the Liu Family didn't have time to transfer their good things. Because of this, most of their belongings were left behind. Naturally, there weren't a lot of Jade Essences and other valuable things that were taken away by the women and children of the Liu Family. Most of the things that were left behind were Cultivation Methods, artifacts, and materials.
Of course, this wasn't the most important thing. The most important thing was the land deeds and house deeds left behind by the Liu Clan. When Zhao Hai and the others received the land deeds and house deeds, they knew that the Liu Clan had a lot of properties in Falling Star City, especially the land outside the city.
The situation outside Meteorite City was very special. Meteorite City was located on a small mountain. There was a small river flowing outside the city. According to legend, this place was originally a big river. Later on, a meteorite fell on the Meteorite City's location. Although the meteorite made a big hole in the ground, because the meteorite was too big, it still turned into a small mountain. This was also how Meteorite City got its name.
Outside Meteorite City was a plain. The area that could be cultivated was very large. Naturally, for cultivators, land was the most worthless thing. Therefore, in the eyes of cultivators, land wasn't a property at all.
It was precisely because of this that the Liu Family had desperately tried to enclose land outside the city. Now, eight out of ten of the land outside Starfall City belonged to the Liu Family. In Starfall City, half of the land and shops belonged to the Liu Family. This was also the main source of income for the Liu Family.
Naturally, these things weren't good for the Liu Family, especially the land outside the city. Although the Liu Family encircled those lands, they didn't use them much. They only rented some land near the city to some Rogue Cultivators outside the city. These Rogue Cultivators were weak and could only rely on farming and some other tasks to survive. They were also the lowest class of cultivators in the Void Realm.
The Liu Family didn't treat these Rogue Cultivators very well. At least half of the things that the Rogue Cultivators planted were handed over to the Liu Family. The rest was left to the Rogue Cultivators.
After the Liu Family received the grains from the Rogue Cultivators, they would also use these grains to brew some wine. However, the wine they brewed didn't have any special characteristics. The taste could only be regarded as average. Moreover, the output wasn't a lot. They mainly sold grains, so their annual income wasn't much.
However, these lands were really good things for the Four Righteous Gang. If the Four Righteous Gang wanted to brew wine, they would need grains. And the Four Righteous Gang needed a lot of grains. Although they got some land around Marshu City, the grains produced from these lands weren't a lot. Recently, they wanted to buy a lot of land. Now, there was a large amount of land around Meteorite City. Moreover, these lands now belonged to the Four Righteous Gang. This was tantamount to solving the land problem of the Four Righteous Gang.
Tiger's Might and the others were calculating the income of the Four Righteous Gang from the Liu Family. At the same time, they were stabilizing the environment of Meteorite City and helping the Rogue Cultivators living in the city.
There weren't a lot of Rogue Cultivators in Meteorite City, but there were also a lot of them. The city didn't have a lot of tasks for them. However, there was a mountain not far from Meteorite City. This mountain was called the Sweeping Monarch Mountain. It was a huge mountain range that spanned hundreds of thousands of miles. The mountain range was continuous and had numerous branches. Because of this, there were countless spirit herbs and demon beasts in the mountain range. It was a good place for adventuring. Some Cultivators would often go to the Sweeping Monarch Mountain. Although Meteorite City wasn't the closest city to the Sweeping Monarch Mountain, it wasn't the luckiest one either. Therefore, many Cultivators who went to the Sweeping Monarch Mountain for missions would use Meteorite City as a foothold. However, because there weren't many people, Meteorite City still maintained the appearance of a small city.
The Four Righteous Gang opened a pharmacy here. A lot of the potions inside were bought by the Rogue Cultivators. From the reactions of the Rogue Cultivators, it seems like they were very satisfied with the potions. It was precisely because of this that the Liu Family targeted them.
The Liu Family wasn't a large family. Just as Zhao Hai had guessed, the Liu Family's annual income wasn't very high. They relied on the production of their land, so their income wasn't much. They also had shops in the city, but because Starfall City was a small city, their purchasing power wasn't very strong. Because of this, their income was very limited. Moreover, they had to hand over a portion of their jade essence every year. Although the Liu Family's annual income was enough for their family's expenses, it was impossible for them to have a surplus.
It was precisely because of this that the Liu Family paid attention to the affordable pharmacy. This was because the Liu Family was also involved in the pill business. Although they didn't deal in low-grade pills, they still had some understanding of the pill business. Moreover, the Liu Family was aware of any changes in Meteorite City. Because of this, the business of the affordable pharmacy slowly became popular. The Liu Family immediately noticed it.
However, after investigating, they discovered that the price of the medicine sold in the affordable pharmacy wasn't high. If they calculated the price according to that price, then they wouldn't be able to make much money.
In addition, the Rogue Cultivators were also allowed to exchange herbs for potions. This way, the Liu Family wouldn't be able to make a lot of money. However, the Liu Family quickly discovered that the Cheap Pharmacy was a treasure that could win over people's hearts. The Rogue Cultivators who sold their potions to the Cheap Pharmacy had a very high evaluation of the Cheap Pharmacy. This made the Liu Family's heart move. Therefore, the Liu Family planned this robbery. However, they didn't expect that this robbery would ruin the Liu Family's foundation.
The Rogue Cultivators in Meteorite City didn't have a good impression of the Liu Family. They secretly called the Liu Family Liu HuaiShui. In order to increase their family's income, the Liu Family had been oppressing the Rogue Cultivators. Because of this, the Rogue Cultivators didn't want to take revenge for the Liu Family. On the contrary, they were secretly cheering for the Liu Family.
The work in Meteorite City went very smoothly. Before long, the entire city fell into the hands of the Four Family Gang. Laura and the others didn't participate too much in this matter. They were just monitoring the women and children of the Liu Family.
Before long, the women and children of the Liu Family arrived at the Liu Family's underground shelter. When they arrived, they immediately activated a transmission formation. However, this transmission formation was very small, so it could only send a jade slip. After the Liu Family sent a jade slip, a white light suddenly appeared inside the underground shelter. Then a person appeared inside the shelter. This person wore a shabby Cultivator's robe. He looked like a Rogue Cultivator who was wholeheartedly doing farm work.
After the person appeared, he looked at the Liu Family and said, "Liu Dingshan has seen you all. Please tidy up and come with us."
The person in charge of the Liu Family's shelter was a woman. This woman was the Matriarch of the Liu Family. She was a Rogue Cultivator, but because of her beauty and strength, she married the Liu Family's Patriarch. This time, when the Liu Family encountered a disaster, she led the women and children of the family to this shelter. Because of her status, she naturally became the backbone of these people.
