The Pregnant Mommy Survive on Unlimited Supplies-Chapter 263 - 261 used the child to threaten her
Chapter 263: 261 used the child to threaten her
"Zhou Cheng from Xiang City, where did he get those weapons?"
Zhong Zimo was very curious. He stayed alert and went back to his tent, then started searching online for the names and styles of those weapons.
Among them, the Gatling was certainly not the standard-issue weapon for the Garrison in Xiang City.
Of course, it wasn’t the standard-issue weapon in Xiang City or any city under the jurisdiction of Gong Yi either.
Zhong Zimo pondered. So where did Zhou Cheng get these weapons from?
He pulled out his phone and called Ma Yongchun.
Ma Yongchun fell silent as soon as he heard the news.
After a while, he finally asked,
"Can it be traced where Zhou Cheng’s weapons are coming from?"
The problem Ma Yongchun was facing was that he mainly lacked armed forces.
Zhou Cheng didn’t listen to him, and of course, now he didn’t necessarily listen to Qin Zhen either.
The current Zhou Cheng was like a wild horse that had broken free. He listened to Qin Zhen only because Qin Zhen and Hua Mi stood as a nation.
And Zhou Cheng listened to Gong Yi.
Speaking of which, Qin Zhen could direct Zhou Cheng.
So, neither Ma Yongchun nor Qin Zhen could be considered as individuals with armed forces in their control.
Since Ma Yongchun knew Zhou Cheng could get weapons, why didn’t he make good use of this information?
Maybe he could find out who was selling weapons to Zhou Cheng, and he could also pay to buy a batch of weapons.
Then, reform an armed force.
Zhong Zimo frowned,
"It’s probably going to be difficult. My work here is very hard to carry out. Everyone is tight as a drum, very hard to break through."
Zhou Cheng’s relationship with Gong Yi was too solid, Hua Mi was difficult to morally blackmail, even Shi Caixia was very tight-lipped.
Zhong Zimo felt that trying to access the supply warehouse and take the fabric inside was going to be exceptionally difficult.
Ma Yongchun pondered for a moment and instructed Zhong Zimo,
"Work within your means. These things need to be approached gradually."
After giving a few more words of precaution, Ma Yongchun hung up the phone and sat quietly in his villa, watching the sky outside that was neither bright nor dark.
Lately, the snow had been falling heavier and the ground was accumulating more and more. Yet, the sky was becoming brighter.
Not like before, perpetually dark.
The unusual, irregular weather baffled any meteorologist.
At that moment, Ma Zhixuan barged in, the wind and snow filling the entire villa.
When he saw Ma Yongchun standing by the window, he exclaimed,
"Bro? Why are you at home? Aren’t you busy at this hour?"
According to past habits, this was the busiest time for Ma Yongchun.
Instead, what did he see upon returning? He saw Ma Yongchun idling at home.
Ma Yongchun turned and saw Ma Zhixuan covered in snow, but he did not respond to Ma Zhixuan.
He just asked expressionlessly,
"Where have you been?"
Ma Zhixuan approached,
"Ah, brother, don’t scold me first; I’ve recently heard something."
Upon his return to Xiang City, he wasn’t idle as he had been before. Instead, he truly considered his brother’s problems.
After all, anyone who had been through what had happened in Xiang City would have grown from the experience.
So, when Ma Zhixuan returned to Xiang City, he sought out his schoolmates.
Those schoolmates now had formed a team and frequently traveled between Xiang City and Xiang City.
After all, there are abundant resources in Xiang City now, and they can get some to sell in City C.
They can also find some resources to drag to Xiang City to sell.
So the student team of Ma Zhixuan knew a lot about the news from Xiang City.
Ma Zhixuan just spoke out,
"Brother, I found out that the child between you and Qin Zhen hasn’t died, he has been alive all along."
Ma Zhixuan no longer called Qin Zhen "sister-in-law."
Since Qin Zhen and Ma Yongchun had divorced, she no longer deserved to be called sister-in-law by Ma Zhixuan.
So he just called Qin Zhen by her name, and then told Ma Yongchun,
"Brother, the reason you fell out with Qin Zhen was just because the child was born prematurely, right? Now that the child is fine, can’t we just put this matter behind us?"
Premature birth, just that... Ma Yongchun frowned as he looked at Ma Zhixuan and asked softly,
"A child being born prematurely, do you know what that means?"
It’s a lifetime matter for a little life; it could easily lead to lifelong complications because of the premature birth.
Ma Zhixuan said it was just premature birth?
He couldn’t even understand why Qin Zhen would make such a big deal over such a minor issue with Ma Yongchun.
He felt it was not worth it.
Indeed, Ma Zhixuan waved his hand nonchalantly,
"What it means isn’t important; we all need to look forward, brother. I think we should just bring the child over, and if Qin Zhen makes a fuss again, we can threaten her using the child..."
Before he could finish, Ma Zhixuan was slapped across the face by Ma Yongchun.
Ma Zhixuan covered his face,
"Brother, what did I say wrong? I truly care about your current situation."
Previously, when Ma Yongchun was the head honcho of City C, Ma Zhixuan was treated with respect wherever he went.
Even after the disaster struck, the treatment towards Ma Zhixuan had been similar to before.
But since Ma Yongchun had fallen out with Qin Zhen, many people suddenly stopped listening to Ma Zhixuan.
Especially since Qin Zhen had spearheaded several projects and intended to collaborate with Hua Mi, she needed a great deal of manpower.
Many of the administrative leaders in City C listened to Qin Zhen.
Many issues were not directly dealt with by Ma Yongchun anymore, but through Qin Zhen, which left Ma Yongchun with a lot of free time.
After negotiating a materials exchange deal with City D, it stagnated due to the inability to open the materials warehouse.
Ma Zhixuan felt aggrieved for Ma Yongchun.
So what was wrong with using the child to calm Qin Zhen down?
Ma Yongchun, however, was furious, his face turning a bleak shade of blue,
"Do you realize my son is only one month old? Such a small child, in such harsh weather, if you bring him to City C, he will die!"
City C was nearly buried under the snow from the heavy snowfall.
Had Ma Zhixuan considered these environmental factors? He hadn’t. Naively, he just reckoned on bringing Qin Jianqiang to City C.
The thought was exceedingly dangerous.
Before Ma Zhixuan could argue back, Ma Yongchun grabbed him by the collar,
"Ma Zhixuan, can you keep quiet for a few days? Stop stirring up trouble over and over again."
"My son is in Xiang City, and you are not to touch him. If I find out you’ve done something to him, Ma Zhixuan, I will really kill you, truly."
He had never spoken so severely to Ma Zhixuan before, even his gaze filled with a murderous intent.
That murderous intent stunned Ma Zhixuan, leaving him unable to react for a moment.
Was it worth it? He and Ma Yongchun had been each other’s support for over a decade, and that child named Qin Jianqiang hadn’t even met Ma Yongchun once.
Moreover, the child didn’t even share Ma Yongchun’s surname; his surname was Qin, not Ma.
For such a child, was Ma Yongchun really going to miss this opportunity to leverage Qin Zhen?
