In Qin Dynasty, the hero of the bright moon dominates the world

Chapter 558 Control
The ancient jungle city.

The ancient palace is full of vitality, and the headquarters of Quicksand welcomes a mysterious guest.

A great buyer!

The smooth stone bricks were not stained, and the sun shone into the palace. On the throne, the lonely king rested his chin with one hand, and watched the man in the exquisite robe and bamboo hat walk in step by step.

"I heard that quicksand can take the head of anyone in this world. I don't know if it's true or not?"

The other party's voice was a little low, and it seemed that he was from a good background.

"That depends on whether you can give the corresponding price."

Wei Zhuang's voice was very indifferent, as if he was dismissing some boring people.

"Golden ten thousand taels!"

The man shouted loudly, full of momentum.But this is a price that is enough to make most assassins in the world feel excited, but there is no ripple.

But Wei Zhuang's gaze seemed to be able to see through it.

"In the land of Yanzhao, whose head can be worth this price?"

The man was startled, he didn't know why Wei Zhuang knew that the person he wanted to kill was in the land of Yanzhao.But he quickly stabilized his mind and asked softly.

"Zhao Shuang, Marquis Hanyang of Qin State, is his head worth ten thousand taels of gold?"

The visitor kept looking at the leader of Quicksand, but saw that when he mentioned Zhao Shuang, the other party had a smile on his face and straightened up.

"Zhao Shuang?"

"Correct!"

"To kill Zhao Shuang, the price you gave is too low."

Under the puzzled gaze of that person, Wei Zhuang smiled.

"Although the battle between Yanzhao and Zhao Shuang was peaceful, Zhao Shuang used gold and silver as weapons to destroy the heroes of Yanzhao. You were beaten back and forth by him, and your wealth was lost, but you expect to use mere ten thousand taels of gold to take his head?"

"This... How much does the leader want?"

"It takes half of the world to take his head."

The visitor's face was shocked, the price proposed by the other party was really outrageous.

"Since Quicksand has no intention of accepting this transaction, I will take my leave."

"and many more!"

When the man looked back, Wei Zhuang returned to his original appearance.

"You should know the rules of quicksand. If you want to come here to discuss business, then the deposit is the life of the person who comes. If the business is negotiated, then the deposit will be returned; if the negotiation is not satisfactory, then there is no reason to refund the deposit."

A sense of panic spread throughout the body. After hearing this, the visitor ran away, but before taking two steps, he was surrounded by a group of snakes.

The poisonous snake bit, and amidst the sound of fear, the body of the visitor became stiff and fell to the ground.

Chi Lian came out from the side with a charming voice.

"This is already the third one. It seems that there are quite a few people who want to kill Zhao Shuang! Isn't that right, Sister Zi Nu!"

Zi Nu followed Chi Lian, looked at the corpse on the ground, and felt that the former Princess Honglian had changed a lot.

"What about quicksand?"

Chi Lian glanced at Wei Zhuang in the distance, and towards Zi Nu, after all, her words were somewhat respectful, even flattering.

"Quicksand only has goals, as long as the price offered by the other party is right, it's fine."

Zi Nu smiled helplessly, stepped forward step by step, and looked at Wei Zhuang on the throne.

"Can't the grievances between you be resolved?"

For Zi Nu, Wei Zhuang does not have the indifference towards others, but it is not the love that men have for women.Chi Lian could feel this point keenly.

"I have no grievances with him!"

Wei Zhuang's face changed, with a chill.

"At the beginning, I wanted to help him take the world, but he refused. Since then, we are no longer friends."

Chi Lian knows how precious the word "friend" is in Wei Zhuang's mouth.

"Wei Zhuang..."

Zi Nu wanted to say something, but Wei Zhuang stood up, his voice full of disdain.

"Look at him now, he has been messing with these ants all day long, and in the end he only got the title of Marquis of Guannei. Could it be that he really thinks that after the Qin State destroys the six kingdoms, the world will be peaceful. He can From now on, the wine woman can indulge in wealth and honor?"

In Wei Zhuang's view, what Zhao Shuang did at this time was purely a waste of time.

"The malice of the human heart is endless!"

Handan.

"Master Guo Kai, what does Zhao Shuang mean? Whatever business we do, he will interfere with it!"

Guo Kai glanced at the people in the mansion, and they became rarer and rarer.

Since Yan State was broken by the Qin army, they have been seriously injured.Zhao Shuang hacked their money and goods, and then used these goods to hit their business in turn.

They cannot compete with Zhao Shuang in the areas of grain, cloth, iron, salt, wine and other fields in the two metropolitan circles of Handan and Jicheng.

Guo Kai was also uncomfortable. Before Qin Yan went to war, he hoarded a lot of wood, tiles and other building materials.These cost him a lot of money, and then Yandi's business failed again.After finally waiting for the Kingdom of Yan to be destroyed, the Qin army built fortifications and built granaries and water villages, but the building materials in his hands still couldn't get out.At this time, he was also a little out of touch.

"Zhao Shuang, he clearly wants to kill us!"

There was anger in Guo Kai's words, and he spoke slowly.

"But we can't do anything about him. The assassin has gone several times, but there is no movement at all."

"Then send again!"

Guo Kai said angrily.

"King Hanyang is here!"

There was a loud shout, obviously meant as a warning.Everyone's complexion changed drastically, what's going on?

"You guys avoid it first!"

Guo Kai said a word, but before these people had time to withdraw, a burst of laughter came from their ears.

"Xiao Kai, I came here uninvited, you won't blame me!"

Guo Kai looked at the young man who came from afar, his angry face just now changed into a smiling face, trotted a few steps, and greeted him.

"How come, it is my honor to be here, Your Majesty."

"I'll just say it! Do we still use these vain rituals in our relationship?"

Zhao Shuang was not polite at all, walked into the room and sat in the main seat.

"Yo, there are so many people!"

"Your Majesty!"

……

The group of people who were shouting at Zhao Shuang just now changed their faces one after another, trying to curry favor.

"Isn't your majesty in Jicheng? Why did you go back to Handan?"

"I'm about to step down and return to Guanzhong soon. No, before I leave, I'll visit my old friend."

"Your Majesty has made a great contribution this time, and after returning to Guanzhong, he will definitely be reused."

Guo Kai was overjoyed, this kid was finally leaving.

"It doesn't matter!" Zhao Shuang waved his hand, "I recently sent an envoy out of Youbeiping and got in touch with Donghu."

"Oh?"

"The king of Donghu suffers from the invasion of the Huns, and wants to make friends with Daqin and do business. I think about it, and I have to talk to you about this matter."

"What does your majesty mean?"

"I want to build a new business road and trade with Donghu. If the wealthy merchants in the land of Yanzhao want to participate, they can do so."

Guo Kai looked at Zhao Shuang, alert in his heart.After the death of Lord Yanchun, the land of Yan cut off business with the Hu people.But now it seems that Zhao Shuang is not only greedy for their money and goods, but also for this business.

But what does Zhao Shuang want to do?
"Your Majesty, I wonder how many trucks of goods can be carried on this commercial road? How about the tax for one truck?"

A soft voice rang in Guo Kai's ear.Just when he was surprised, the people behind him bypassed him one after another and started asking questions.

"Is there a guard post beside the road?"

"Where is the trading place on the border? Is it open to question?"

"The price of horses and donkeys in Yandi is still high now, and a pack horse costs tens of thousands of dollars, which is almost the same as a war horse. Could your majesty bring some horses from Taiyuan?"

……

Amidst the noisy voice, Guo Kaixin was emptied, and the power he had accumulated over the years began to escape from his control.
