Da Qin: I, who was bound to Qin Shihuang, took off

Chapter 92 Son-in-law?The Ba family’s son-in-law?Fan Zeng?

"Dad, what happened?"

Wang Wan's eldest son Wang Ye saw his father's livid face and immediately walked up and asked.

"Those Han Jiang soldiers have no idea."

"Tell them to give up on this idea." Wang Wan sighed.

Wang Ye's face changed: "Why is this? I have already negotiated the price, and the black marketers are also ready. With your ability, father, you were able to win at least 1 pawns as slaves. Now, How could it have changed?"

"Because of Wei Liao." Wang Wan sighed.

"Wei Liao only cares about military achievements and military affairs, so why did he get involved in the Jiangsu? All the time, the Jiangsu has been arranged and dispatched by you, father."

"Did your Majesty give the power of dispatching soldiers to Wei Liao this time?" Wang Ye asked solemnly.

"It was not given to Wei Liao, but to the army."

"I'm going to tell you why the escort of the surrendered soldiers did not go through me this time. It turns out that the king has issued a secret edict and directly left some of the [-] surrendered soldiers captured from Korea in the Korean territory, and most of them were sent to northern Xinjiang without passing through me at all. Hand." Wang Wan said with some dissatisfaction.

"father."

"Could it be that the king knows about our slave trade?" Wang Ye's expression changed and he asked worriedly.

"impossible."

Wang Wan shook his head: "The slaves we sell all record death, and all of them passed through my hands. Even the king cannot know."

"That's good."

"After all, this matter cannot be brought to light. It would not be a good thing if your Majesty finds out." Wang Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

This was the time of slavery.

But it's not obvious, because the imperial court's treatment of slaves is not to sell them, but to grant them directly from the royal power to meritorious ministers and people with meritorious services.

However, the value of slave trading is very high, and the private slave trade is naturally very popular among the people.

Except for young and beautiful women.

Especially the slaves obtained from the war attracted countless merchants and local dignitaries.

Because those who go to the battlefield have a certain level of cultivation. This era is not as safe as imagined. The world is very chaotic. Many people need slaves as guards. As long as they practice and enter the door, even if they are a Ordinary warriors at the fifth level of body refining can be worth five hundred gold, but in the power refining realm it is directly worth double. Even if you first enter the power refining realm, a person is worth a few gold. If you reach the innate realm, it is worth thousands of gold. .

There are many powerful warriors among the soldiers.

You can imagine how much Wang Wan and his son earned from doing this kind of business.

"But dad."

"Even if they are assigned to Northern Xinjiang, you do not have the right to allocate them, but at most these soldiers will become cannon fodder, and a large part of them will definitely be relegated to hard labor. We can still operate at that time. After all, we have the final right to dispose of them. Still with you." Wang Ye came back to his senses and smiled.

Wang Wan shook her head with a cold face: "It would be nice if it was as simple as you think."

"A ten thousand general from the northern Xinjiang military camp proposed a method to deal with the prisoner army. All these surrendered soldiers are organized into an army. If you kill the enemy in battle, you can be deprived of your slave status. If you kill five enemies, you can be knighted and gain the status of a warrior."

"All the soldiers who have been sent to northern Xinjiang have been reorganized. All soldiers are collectively called the prisoner army."

"And as long as the prisoner army really forms a fighting force this time and fights for the Qin Dynasty, I'm afraid all the surrendered soldiers will be organized like this in the future."

"We want to profit from slaves, but I'm afraid it's impossible."

Speaking of which.

Wang Wan's face became even more ugly.

With the implementation of the military merit system, as the imperial court gradually restricted officials from engaging in business, or even did not allow it, of course they continued to do so secretly, and the means by which they wanted to earn gold and silver became much more secretive.

But old nobles like Wang Wan have been following this huge profit from slave trading.

"Which general in Northern Xinjiang dares to be so bold?"

"Dad, let's send someone to beat him."

Wang Ye's face also turned livid.

There is a saying from ancient times to the present day, cutting off a person's wealth is like killing his parents.

Now that the soldiers can no longer be sold, their financial path will naturally be cut off.

"A young general who had only been in the army for a year, was lucky enough to kill the Huns' general, and was awarded the title of Ten Thousand Generals. Now he has been promoted to Fifty Thousand Generals, but the King values ​​him very much, and so does Wei Liao."

"Hit him?"

"Are you looking for death?"

Wang Wan glanced at him and scolded him coldly.

Wang Ye's expression changed: "He was awarded the title of [-] generals after one year of joining the army? Is he from the Wang family or the Meng family?"

"It's just a grassroots."

"I don't have much publicity about my identity, but I'm very lucky and have good talent." Wang Wan said coldly.

"Then Dad, what should we do?"

"Our family can make countless profits by selling slaves. If it stops, our family's financial path will also be cut off." Wang Ye said uneasily.

"I will consider this matter carefully."

"After all, I can't get involved in the army. If there were people in the army, why would it be like this?" Wang Wan sighed.

After the implementation of the military merit system.

It has always been directly controlled by the King of Qin. If you want to reach out to the army, you have to compete with the royal power. In the past, when Lu Buwei was around, he did not dare to go too far, let alone a prime minister who had [-]% of Lu Buwei's power weakened.

"Dad, tell me."

"What is the name of that fifty thousand general in Northern Xinjiang, and what are his details?" Wang Ye said angrily.

But what greeted him was Wang Wan's admonishing gaze: "Don't act recklessly. This son deserves the attention of the king. If you really did something to him and are found out, our clan will be finished."

"Yes."

Meeting Wang Wan's gaze, Wang Ye was a little uneasy, but he still nodded.

"Where is Wang Li?" Wang Wan came back to his senses and asked.

"Dad, you forgot."

"Didn't the Ba family send someone to propose marriage? The second brother went to Shu County to see how the young lady from the Ba family was doing."

"If you can, you can also marry her. With the financial resources of the Ba family, our family can earn more money." Wang Ye said with a smile. "I'm just a businessman, and I won't be able to get on the stage after all."

"Tell your second brother, it's okay to be a concubine, but not a wife." Wang Wan said in a deep voice.

"Dad, don't worry."

"I have already told my second brother."

"Although the Ba family is extremely wealthy, it is nothing in the face of authority. The Ba family also wants to seek marriage with our family to become stronger. They dare not refuse." Wang Ye said proudly.

"Yes." Wang Wan nodded.

Then he looked at Wang Ye and said, "Don't stay in the mansion if you have nothing to do. Go and accompany Mr. Fusu. Only by following him closely can our clan continue to prosper."

"Father, don't worry."

"I accompany Mr. Fusu every day, and I have a deep relationship with him."

"One day when Mr. Fusu succeeds to the throne, our clan will be even more prosperous." Wang Ye said very confidently.

……

Shu County!
"Miss."

"The master of the house has come here to urge me several times. A distinguished guest is coming. You'd better prepare quickly."

"Otherwise the head of the family will be angry."

Several maids were waiting outside a room, each holding a new skirt and a new hairpin in their hands, all very anxious.

"You go tell her."

"I don't want to see you. If you insist on going, then take my body with you." Ba Rou's tired and disappointed voice came out.

outside the room.

Several maids looked at each other, all very helpless.

But in the end they retreated.

inside the room.

Ba Rou sat in front of the dressing table, staring blankly at herself in the bronze mirror.

And his hands gently caressed his abdomen.

It has been more than three months since she left Northern Xinjiang.

But more than a month ago, I suddenly felt nausea and vomiting, and my menstruation also stopped.

But now her belly has swelled slightly, and it is obvious that she is pregnant.

"Young Master Qin."

"What do you want me to do?"

"Originally I was the only one, so I could fight until death."

"But now..." Barou sighed, with endless bitterness in his eyes.

And on the other side.

The head of the family's bedroom.

"Even now, have you decided to force Rou'er to marry someone she doesn't like?" A man in his fifties with black hair mixed with white hair stood in front of Ba Qing, a little angry. The way.

"What can I do if I don't want to?"

"Will the rest of the family give up?"

"Born into my Ba family, maybe this is her fate." Ba Qing said expressionlessly.

"Back then, when you randomly selected a commoner in Chu State who was nearly 20 years older than you, wasn't I your protest?"

"You just want to tell your Ba family that you can choose the one you don't like. The older one will not be manipulated."

"Now that it's on Rou'er, you don't dare to resist?" the man said angrily.

"Ha ha."

"So what if you resist? Are you finally free from the family's control?"

"This time the family has chosen the son of the prime minister, which is indeed a high achievement for our family."

"This is Rou'er's blessing." Ba Qing said without changing his expression, and there was no wave in his eyes.

"Fortune?"

"Since it is a blessing, why not let the granddaughters of those old people go? Why should Rou'er go?"

"The son of the prime minister is probably a playboy. With Rou'er's character and your status as a merchant of the Ba family, how will he treat Rou'er? Rou'er will be bullied as long as she marries him."

"Are you willing?" the man said angrily.

Snapped!
Ba Qing slammed the table and glared at the man in front of him: "Fan Zeng, so what if I can't bear it?"

"I can't resist."

"But what can you do as a father? What can you do as a son-in-law? What can you do except watch helplessly?"

Hear it!

The man did not have any anger, but stared at Ba Qing, and then said seriously: "Indeed, I don't have the power to change anything now, but if you really marry Rou'er, if Rou'er has been wronged in any way, , the so-called Prime Minister’s Wang family, your Ba family, and even the entire Qin Kingdom, I won’t let go.”

"I, Fan Zeng, will fight to the end even if I die."

Done.

The man flicked his sleeves.

Just turned and left.

Ba Qing looked at the man's back, his unruffled eyes filled with surprise at this moment.

He seemed to be surprised by the way his father-in-law cared about his daughter.
