My Wife is A Sword God

As evening approached, Qin Feng stepped out of the Listen To Rain Pavilion.

To his disappointment, Miss Cang was not in the Listen To Rain Pavilion and he had no idea where she had gone.

He sighed and with Lan Ningshaung in tow, headed to the Moonlit Pavilion.

The business at the Moonlit Pavilion was still thriving, and being fully occupied had become the norm.

The Manager Peng sat at the front desk, going through bills and checking the inventory of drinks. At the first glance of Qin Feng, he respectfully greeted him with a smiling face. From the bottom of his heart, he admired this young master of the Qin family.

The three of them went to the accounting room, where Peng Qing reported the profit situation of the city’s taverns over the past few days.

Time passed quietly.

“It’s almost time for dinner. Let’s just have something here.” Qin Feng said to Lan Ningshaung after listening to the report.

“Whatever Young Master says.”

Upon hearing this, the Manager Peng asked, “Young Master, do you want me to reserve a spot for you on the third floor?”

Qin Feng thought for a moment and shook his head, “No need, we’ll eat on the first floor.”

He enjoyed a lively atmosphere. Eating while listening to the chatter of the people around him was quite interesting.

“Alright, I’ll arrange it right away.” Manager Peng bowed and left.

After a while, he cleared a window-side spot on the first floor for Qin Feng and Lan Ningshaung.

The first floor was the largest, with the most people, and naturally, it was very lively.

Among them were sturdy men, likely servants who had traveled far and wide with wealthy merchants. They were well-informed and knew a lot of inside information.

Some talked about the prosperity of Heavenly City, while others discussed the whereabouts of the officials from the Demon Slaying Department, who had slain powerful demons and monsters.

There were also stories about strange occurrences in remote villages.

Qin Feng sipped his wine, eavesdropping on these conversations, feeling relaxed and content.

At that moment, a voice caught his attention.

“This time, how many damaged areas did your team repair in Qiyuan City? Let me report ours first, it’s not much. We only repaired twenty-three streets, forty-three houses, and seventeen pavilions.”

Qiyuan City? Qin Feng raised an eyebrow, looking towards the source of the voice. Across the room, he saw three tables occupied by an obvious group of people.

A rough estimate counted nearly twenty individuals.

They wore similar attire, light red clothes with open chests, revealing strong and muscular arms.

On the chest of their clothes was a pattern, a flame.

Qin Feng opened his mouth slightly. He recognized this emblem; it belonged to the Divine Workshop of the Imperial Heavenly City!

He remembered when the original owner was young; his father had invited people from the Divine Workshop to repair the ancestral home, and they had this emblem!

“That group is from the Divine Workshop,” Qin Feng smirked, silently commenting in his mind.

A man with dark skin, noticeably more robust than the others, sneered, “Gong Liang, I thought you were just being humble. I didn’t expect it to be true.”

With a fiery red headband on his head and a lean figure, Gong Liang, upon hearing this snorted coldly, “Huo Yuan, are you suggesting that your team repaired more places than ours?”

Huo Yuan shook the wine glass in his hand pretending to be indifferent, “It’s just four more streets, two houses, and three more attics than your team. Not much, really!”

“If it weren’t for seeing my brothers a bit tired, taking a break for three hours in the middle of the days we worked, this trip to Qiyuan City wouldn’t have been a big deal for your team.”

Gong Liang, upon hearing this, not only didn’t get angry but laughed, “So that’s how it is. It’s a pity our team doesn’t have such good luck. Besides repairing the damaged areas in the city, we also took the opportunity to reconstruct the city’s protective barrier. In the past few days, the brothers also took a short nap for over an hour.”

As soon as these words came out, the people following Guo Liang all showed a provocative look, looking quite pleased with themselves.

After over an hour, Qin Feng opened his mouth. Indeed, in this world, there was no limit to being leisurely, only more so.

Huo Yuang’s expression darkened a bit. He gritted his teeth, “No wonder we haven’t seen your people for a while. It turns out you secretly took on the task of repairing the protective barrier.”

Pausing for a moment, he sneered, “Well, we haven’t been idle either. While you were away, we reconstructed the Qiyuan River and renovated the Dragon Protection Tower in the city. Lord Zhou, the chief of the Demon Slaying Department, praised us endlessly.”

As he spoke, the group following Huo Yuan straightened their chests, looking proud.

“You! How despicable.” Gong Liang spat.

“Each to his own.” Huo Yuang snorted.

The two groups glared at each other coldly, like two armies about to engage in battle, with a fierce atmosphere.

However, after a moment, both sides burst into laughter at the same time.

“Brother Guo, there’s no need for this. It’s rare to have such delicacies in Jinyang City. There’s no need for us to argue over these trivial matters. Isn’t that ruining the taste in our mouths?”

“Huo Yuan is right. Even in Imperial City, I haven’t tasted such delicacies. And the wine here is also exceptional. Come, I’ll toast to you!”

Both groups raised their wine glasses together and drank it all in one gulp.

“Eat the foods, eat the foods.” Huo Yuan and Gong Liang spoke at the same time, and their subordinates began to frantically pick and eat the vegetables. The speed at which they ate was simply unmatched.

The commotion caused by this group naturally attracted the attention of the people around.

The commoners put down their chopsticks, looking at them with strange expressions.

Lan Ningshuang was originally from the Liu family in Imperial City, and had long heard of the reputation of the artisans from the Divine Workshop. She was not surprised by this.

“Eating so fast, are you in a hurry to be reincarnated?” Qin Feng looked at this group of people and muttered to himself.

Huo Yuan and Gong Liang were eating quickly, each not wanting to be slower than the other.

If they choked, they would take a sip of wine, swallow, and then start eating again.

“Huo (Gong) brothers, what is your mission in Qiyuan City this time?” The two spoke in unison, squinting their eyes.

“Repairing the areas damaged by the Hundred Ghosts a while ago,” they said simultaneously again.

“Is there nothing else?” The two stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes, speaking at such a synchronized frequency.

“Heh.” No one believed each other.

The people from the Divine Workshop were engaged in physical labor so they ordered more dishes than other commoners. However three tables of food quickly got emptied.

“Waiter, the bill!”

Huo Yuan and Gong Liang simultaneously slapped down the broken silver, and the two groups of people left Moonlit Pavilion in a hurry.

Until everyone watched them leave and stood still for a moment, the lively atmosphere gradually returned.

Qin Feng raised his wine glass, curious.

“Why would the people from the Divine Workshop come to Jinyang City? Could it really be to repair the damage caused by the Hundred Ghosts Night Parade?”

“No, that’s not right. In a small place like Jinyang City, there’s no financial power to afford them. After all, the people from the Divine Workshop don’t come cheap, given their level of skill. Moreover, each of them likes to tinker with some novel things, researching artifact production when they have nothing else to do, which requires considerable expenses. Therefore, these guys basically only take on big projects.”

Qin Feng looked in the direction the Divine Workshop group had left, lost in thought.
