Chapter 313

~8 min read 1,401 words

Arriving in Xianyang City, in the blink of an eye, it has been more than half a year.

Su Fan also set up a restaurant in the outer city of Xianyang again, and the storyteller also went up, and the business of the restaurant was more prosperous day by day.

Of course, troubles also began to descend one after another.

After all, the fiery business, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Su Fan's wealth is constantly accumulating.

And Su Fan is a person without a backer, so soon someone hit his idea.

At first, some bottom-level officials, Su Fan didn't care, but what followed were some nobles with not low power.

The true big nobles might not look down on Su Fan's business, but those newly promoted nobles.

Great Qin started with the military merit system; in the process of Great Qin destroying the six kingdoms, countless soldiers died on the battlefield, naturally producing countless meritorious families.

Great Qin's twenty-level military merit is divided into three levels: Shi, Daifu, and Qing.

The Shi and Daifu titles are nothing in Xianyang City, even if the military merit title reached Gong Daifu, it wouldn't rank well in Xianyang City.

But once it breaks through this point and reaches the position of Qing, then even if you arrive in Xianyang City, you are qualified to hold a jade tablet.

And the person who coveted Su Fan's restaurant this time was such a junior official of the left Tenth-Rank Noble, a Gentleman of the Household, with low position and great power.

After all, he belongs to the Left General of the Household, and is also an attendant of the First Emperor.

Su Fan is not afraid of them, but after offending them, it is also very troublesome; he is really helpless in this world now.

He is an orphan by origin, and the only master he relied on has passed away.

Although he is an East Sea Qi Refiner, this thing, if placed in history, might make the First Emperor value it.

In this world, I don't know how many alchemists are around the First Emperor.

In addition, although alchemists are valued by the First Emperor, later, the number of alchemists Ying Zheng executed was not small.

History says Ying Zheng burned books and buried Confucian scholars, burying tens of thousands of Confucian scholars, but in fact, those were just alchemists.

Saying Ying Zheng is a tyrant, the number of ministers he truly killed is not many.

"Boss Su, don't be ungrateful."

On the third floor of the restaurant, a young man looked at Su Fan with a haughty face, with a threatening look on his face.

"Ungrateful!"

Su Fan's expression was strange; he didn't expect the other party's appetite to be so big.

To say that the business of this restaurant, he really doesn't look down on it; even if it is ten million coins a year, so what? To him, it is of no benefit.

The resources for cultivation in this world are mostly controlled by the empire; wanting to buy them with money is not something that a little money can do.

He doesn't care, but these people are too greedy; not only do they want to get his restaurant, but they also want him to become the other party's guest and act as the other party's white glove in the future.

Do they really think of themselves as someone?

What kind of person is Su Fan? He is an emperor big boss who has experienced several worlds, with a body full of arrogance; only the First Emperor can make him convinced, and who else can he look at more?

What can those kings and nobles do? After more than a hundred years, they are still a cup of yellow earth.

And he is destined to live forever.

"That uncle of yours wants to subdue me as a guest, so he sent you here; it's simply ignorant."

Su Fan looked disdainful, his face full of disdain; he had already found out who the person was after several inquiries: Gentleman of the Household Li Wei, a Korean.

After being captured by the Qin army, he joined the Qin army and gradually made contributions in the army, especially when destroying Wei and Chu, he also made no small contributions.

In the final battle of destroying Chu, because he killed a general of the Xiang clan of Chu, his military merit was promoted to Left Shuzhang.

Later, he was promoted to Xianyang City and became a Gentleman of the Household among the Left Generals of the Household.

He served as a military officer in the army and also became a county lieutenant in the local area; at the age of forty, he became a Gentleman of the Household, which is considered a smooth promotion in the eyes of many people.

But what does this have to do with Su Fan?

"You..."

The young man was angered by Su Fan's words and became angry from embarrassment.

"If you want to do it, you can try."

Su Fan sneered; the young man's strength doesn't count for anything, it is about the External Gang Realm; if he really does it, he can kill him with one palm.

Of course, the consequences are also serious; after all, doing it in the city, ignoring the laws of the empire, if caught, you have to go to the imperial dungeon.

Su Fan doesn't care about the threats of their uncle and nephew; at most, they can make his restaurant unable to open.

Originally, he was prepared to hand over part of the profits.

As a result, the other party was greedy to the end and even wanted him, which is simply ridiculous.

"If there is nothing else, then Su will not send you off."

Su Fan was not prepared to talk nonsense with this person anymore.

"You, you... you are very good."

Seeing Su Fan fearless, the young man was suddenly anxious and angry, but in the city, he didn't dare to do it; if he really did it, if he was caught by the patrolling imperial guards, even his uncle, the Gentleman of the Household, couldn't save him.

The laws of Great Qin are very serious; it is impossible for punishment not to reach the high officials.

Unless the emperor of Great Qin speaks, otherwise, no one can violate it.

Bang!

Staring at Su Fan fiercely for a few times, he then rushed out of the door.

Su Fan sneered at this.

"Young Master, if this continues, we..."

Seeing the young man leave with his followers, Su Pei said in a low voice.

"It doesn't matter, at worst we close the door."

Su Fan said indifferently.

He opened the restaurant just to give the storyteller a place to tell stories, so as to expand his influence.

These days, he faintly felt that after the novel spread, he obtained a trace of luck.

The book has spread, and many people are constantly copying it, but what limits the spread is paper.

In this era, bamboo slips are still used; of course, Su Fan doesn't know what practitioners use.

But for novels to spread, it is best to have paper, which is conducive to spreading.

Otherwise, if you rely on bamboo slips, a novel would probably need a carriage, or even more, to be enough.

So Su Fan wants to make paper.

He also wants to rely on this paper to improve his status.

Su Fan believes that Ying Zheng can definitely see the benefits of the appearance of paper; paper is light, easy to carry, and has a great improvement for the transmission of documents.

Of course, it cannot improve the comprehensive strength of Great Qin, but relying on paper, he can also be promoted to military merit, and then he can slowly take out the things he prepared.

He believes that as long as he strives to improve Great Qin's strength, Ying Zheng will inevitably value him, and then he will use Great Qin's resources to improve his cultivation, which is absolutely the best method.

At the same time, he can also absorb some of the overflowing luck of Great Qin to repair the Universe Mirror.

It can be said to be killing two birds with one stone.

"But for now, how to obtain this promotion?"

This is the most troublesome; he inevitably needs to find a noble.
