Chapter 600

~8 min read 1,454 words

Li Xin looked at Yu Ji, who had a blade pressed against his neck, and in the end, he chose to bow his head.

He didn't have the courage to put his neck forward and commit suicide; after Li Xin chose to surrender, the great battle finally ended.

Li Xin had originally thought that he would be treated favorably because of his status as a general, but he didn't expect that the opponent wouldn't care about his status at all!

They threw him into the iron ore pit to dig iron ore Wu Li Ke everyone else, and even if the daily amount handed in didn't meet the standard, he would be beaten!

Fortunately, quite a few subordinates helped him scrape together enough, which made Li Xin much more relaxed.

He even only had to go through the motions every day, and he even felt Wu Li Ke he had become a prison warden?

Every day he just watched his former soldiers digging ore there, and when they were done, he would go over to demand it.

However, Li Xin's good days didn't last long; a soldier finally couldn't hold it in anymore.

He secretly went to report him, and in the end, Li Xin was assigned to a separate mine cave, where he had to hand in a huge amount of ore every day.

Otherwise, a sound beating was definitely unavoidable.

Li Xin was lazy at first, but who knew that after not handing in enough ore, he was hung up and beaten for an entire night.

The next day he was lying on the ground and couldn't get up, until the third day he could move, and just as he could stand up, he was dragged to dig ore again, although the amount was a bit less.

But he had serious injuries on his body; he almost had no rest time every day, only at night could he rest.

Here, Qin Mu had to sigh that the physique of the ancients was simply too good; if it were the twenty-first century, I'm afraid even those fitness coaches couldn't do it.

However, Qin Mu didn't pay too much attention; instead, Mi Zhu, who was far away in Xianyang, came to Bashu in person.

"Is this the pitch-black thing the lord mentioned?"

"That's right, you can take it back and try it; I allow you to stay in Bashu for a few more days.

This is called refined coal; at that time, I will send a large army to escort a batch of refined coal with you to sell."

"You decide the price yourself; I just need to make money."

Qin Mu looked at Mi Zhu with a face full of smiles; there was no way around it, seeing him, how could he not smile.

Now sixty percent of the Bashu treasury was earned by the team he led in Xianyang, and the remaining eighteen percent was from tax collection.

And another twelve percent was the money earned by the team he led doing business in Bashu.

That's right, their business had already expanded from Xianyang to Bashu; reselling goods between the two sides was still very profitable!

"The lord is truly a god-Wu Li Ke person; the effect of this refined coal is really good; perhaps just by relying on this thing, all the merchants in Xianyang can be bought over."

Mi Zhu said while playing with the refined coal in his hand; even though this refined coal made his hands dirty, he didn't care at all.

This thing, in his eyes, was simply more dazzling and precious than diamonds; if he weren't afraid of his lord misunderstanding.

He would have loved to kiss this refined coal.

"By the way, lord, this subordinate wants to form a chamber of commerce in Xianyang to gather all the merchants in Xianyang into it."

Mi Zhu said something shocking; Qin Mu, who was correcting documents to the side, looked up at Mi Zhu.

He didn't even notice the pen in his hand falling down.

"Are you sure? Does Xianyang not have royal merchants?" Qin Mu asked with some doubt.

"No, the entire Xianyang is suppressing merchants, and the status of merchants there is very low.

The families of those officials are not allowed to have any business existence."

After Mi Zhu said this, Qin Mu expressed some understanding; after all, Ying Zheng's first confidant and enemy was a merchant.

Lu Lu Buwei, an existence with wealth rivaling a nation; he had countless retainers in his hands, and those retainers were all skilled in various ways.

If it weren't for Ying Zheng having some ability himself, I'm afraid the person in charge of Great Qin now might be Lu Lu Buwei.

"Fine, what is the name of the chamber of commerce?"

"Please let the lord decide this!"

"Then let's call it the World Chamber of Commerce!" Qin Mu said with a slight curl of his mouth.

World Chamber of Commerce, simple and easy to understand.

"Do you understand the meaning of me choosing this name?"

"This subordinate knows; the lord's vision is not just in Xianyang; the lord wants to open the chamber of commerce all over the world, letting all merchants in the world join in!" Qin Mu gave Mi Zhu full marks for his reading comprehension; he could understand most of his own.

"Not bad, but everyone who joins the World Chamber of Commerce must not do business against their conscience; they are not allowed to cut corners in business, do you know?"

Qin Mu said suddenly and seriously, but Mi Zhu just smiled at this.

"Lord, rest assured, we do business based on honesty and will not do things that harm the interests of others."

"I hope so; alright, you go down first."

Qin Mu waved his hand, and after Mi Zhu retreated, he let out a long sigh.

In the future, there will only be more and more places to do business, and at that time, countless things will be related to people's livelihood...

He could only hope not to learn from later generations and have those unscrupulous merchants harm the world.

"Order, let Wei Zhuang come to see me." Qin Mu said to the air.

Perhaps others would feel strange, but in fact, Qin Mu was talking to another person.

That person had been hiding in the shadows and only left after Qin Mu spoke.

That person was a wandering knight Qin Mu had recruited before, named Dao Zhi!

That's right, it was that Dao Zhi from The Legend of Qin; his strength might not be strong.

But his movement technique was truly perverted; basically, no one could catch up to him.

Even when fighting, he might not be able to block three moves from Wei Zhuang, but if he wanted to run, Wei Zhuang wouldn't even be able to use one move before he disappeared.

Plus, Dao Zhi had a strong talent for hiding his figure.

As a result, Qin Mu found him the most suitable profession, which was to hide in the back and be Qin Mu's private messenger.

In this era, there were no telephones or anything, not even telegraphs; they could only use this human method.

Soon, Wei Zhuang came.

"There is no use for you at the moment, but I have a task that needs you to do; I don't know if you are willing?" Qin Mu didn't say what the task was, but this didn't affect Wei Zhuang's attitude.

Wei Zhuang knelt on one knee directly and said, "No matter what the task, Xiao Zhuang will definitely be able to complete it!"

"Very good, I am now intending to form a Jianghu faction to gather all the powerful people in the Jianghu into it."

"Let's call the organization the Heaven and Earth Society!" After Qin Mu finished speaking, he waved his hand to signal Wei Zhuang to leave.

Heaven and Earth Society, where heroes and heroines of heaven and earth meet; at that time, this organization would become a sharp sword in his hand.

And it could also prevent Jianghu people from assassinating him in the future; plus, people in the Jianghu were well-informed.

At that time, if he needed to find any character, he only needed one order, and those Jianghu people would find them for him.

Thinking of this, Qin Mu couldn't help but laugh; the entire Bashu was developing in a good direction.

At the same time, after leaving Great Qin, Ge Nie began his wandering life.

And by accident, he met a child named Jing Jing Tianming.

This child was very talented, but a bit mischievous.

And at this time, he also discovered that Great Qin had put a bounty on him!
