Chapter 726: The rich King Qi is here to spend money again [Please subscribe*Please vote for the monthly ticket]

Wang Ben ordered his men to escort the King of Wei, his family, and important court officials and nobles of Wei to Xianyang, and then, under the order of Wang Jian, began to fully occupy the territory of Wei.

Upon receiving the news, the two countries of Yan and Chu also began to shrink their formations and no longer created friction with the Qin army on the border of Wei.

In the end, Wei was unable to withstand the first wave of Qin's offensive, and Yan and Chu did not wait until the Qin army became exhausted.

They could only watch helplessly as the entire territory of Wei fell.

What Wang Jian and Wang Ben did not expect was that they had no intention of continuing to attack Qi, but received an invitation from the King of Qi to meet in Puyang, Wei.

Although it was unclear what King Jian of Qi wanted to do, Wang Jian still led his men to Puyang.

"If you hit him, you can't hit me!" King Jian of Qi met Wang Jian in Puyang City. As soon as he opened his mouth, Wang Jian spit out all the wine he had in his mouth.

Wang Jian looked at King Jian of Qi in shock. Is this really the King of Qi? How can he be just like a gangster?

What? You can hit him, but you can’t hit me anymore!
Is this matter negotiable?
"Pah pah pah~" King Jian of Qi clapped his hands, and a series of enchanting figures came in.

"It is said that the King of Chu loves thin waists. These singing girls were bought from the State of Chu and given to the generals!" King Jian of Qi continued.

Wang Jian originally wanted to refuse, saying that women would only slow down the speed at which he draws his sword.

But when he saw the singers and dancers holding trays with their graceful bodies, and on the trays were treasures from all over Qi State, with even gold serving only as a foil, Wang Jian simply couldn't say no.

Qin had no intention of continuing to attack Qi. Moreover, if it attacked Qi now, it would also have to confront the Bingzhou army hired by Qin, which Xianyang would not allow.

The other generals also looked at Wang Jian hesitantly, waiting for him to speak.

"Qin and Qi are allies. How could the king think of me like this?"

Wang Jian grinned, opened his big hand, and pulled the two dancers into his arms.

When the other generals saw this, they followed suit.

King Jian of Qi was relieved when he saw Wang Jian's behavior, and a shrewd look flashed in his eyes.

After the Qin generals took the dancers to have in-depth discussions, Wang Jian pushed away the dancers around him and waved his hand to dismiss everyone.

"King Qi, please say whatever you want to say. King Qi knows better than anyone that Qin will not attack Qi in the short term, so there is no need for King Qi to come all this way!"

Wang Jian was not stupid. He knew that King Jian of Qi would not come to him because he was worried that Qin would attack Qi.

Among the princes, Ying Zheng had the best attitude towards Qi Wang Jian, and his evaluation of Qi Wang Jian was also higher than that of other princes.

Therefore, how could someone who was favored by Ying Zheng be a mediocre person?

"The general is a wise man!" King Jian of Qi also smiled and took out a few maps and handed them to Wang Jian.

Wang Jian took the maps doubtfully, opened them one by one, and looked at King Jian of Qi with some shock.

These are the city defense maps of some important border towns and some wealthy cities in Qi State.

Many of these cities are still garrisoned by Bingzhou troops.

"What does the King of Qi intend?" Wang Jian was really confused about what the King of Qi Jian wanted to do.

"I want them dead! As for the defenders in the city, I will find a way to transfer them away. As for the wealth in the city, you can take it yourself!" King Jian of Qi said cruelly.

Wang Jian looked at the maps one by one and finally understood what King Jian of Qi wanted to do.

No wonder King Jian of Qi was highly regarded by Ying Zheng. He was so ruthless that ordinary princes could not do it.

Moreover, King Jian of Qi was not only ruthless to his enemies, but even more ruthless to himself. "King of Qi, aren't you afraid that I will occupy these cities and not return them? You should know that many of these cities are among the richest cities in Qi!" Wang Jian narrowed his eyes and looked at King Jian of Qi.

"Unless the State of Qin intends to completely break with Bingzhou!" King Jian of Qi was not afraid at all and looked straight into Wang Jian's eyes.

He could let Wang Jian plunder these cities and kill the nobles in the cities, but he would not let Wang Jian and the Qin State completely occupy these cities.

And he knew even more clearly that Qin and Bingzhou would not go to war.

"Okay, I agree!" Wang Jian nodded. Why not make money for free?

“However, the King of Qi should also know that when a large army is on an expedition, those nobles will run faster than anyone else, and I am not sure I can kill them all!” Wang Jian reminded King Jian of Qi.

"Don't worry about these, General. I will make the arrangements!" King Jian of Qi stood up with a smile and left the attic.

"Interesting and ruthless enough!" Wang Jian watched King Jian of Qi leave, and he also admired King Jian of Qi's ruthlessness.

If King Jian of Qi was given more time, perhaps he could really unite the entire State of Qi into a rope.

It's a pity that everyone knows the political situation in Qi. Other countries have kings who are hopeless, but Qi has a group of court officials who can't help.

Even if King Jian of Qi had more means, it would be difficult to completely reverse the situation in Qi.

Therefore, Wang Jian was more curious about the significance of King Jian of Qi's actions.

Is it really that he just wants to see the royal family die?

"Forget it. If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. What happens to Qi State has nothing to do with me!" Wang Jian smiled and shook his head.

He was old, and even if Qin destroyed Qi, he might not be able to continue leading the troops at that time.

However, his son is likely to become the main general to destroy Qi.

"Am I setting a trap for my son?" Wang Jian couldn't help but think.

However, Wang Jian soon put these things behind him. Without some pressure, the importance of their Wang family to the empire would not be so strong and they might be replaced by other families at any time.

After leaving the attic, King Jian of Qi did not leave Puyang, but went to meet another person in another attic.

"I want the people on the list dead!" The person King Jian of Qi came to see was none other than the leader of Luowang, the vicious dog of Qin, Black and White Xuan Jian.

"That's the beloved relative of the King of Qi!" Hei Bai Xuan Jian rubbed his fingers as he looked at King Qi Jian, "You have to pay more!"

"Once the matter is done, I will give you double the amount!" King Jian of Qi had no intention of bargaining and waved his hand generously.

Hei Bai Xuan Jian looked straight at Qi Wang Jian, and after a long while he sighed, "It's great to have money!"

"I lack everything except money!" Qi Wangjian said with a smile.

"Excuse me for asking, there is almost no money in the treasury of Qi State. Where does the money of the King of Qi come from?" This is what Hei Bai Xuan Jian was most curious about.

There was serious corruption in the State of Qi, and the entire treasury had been almost emptied. However, King Jian of Qi kept squandering money lavishly, as if he had no shortage of money at all. Until now, Luo Wang has not figured out where King Jian of Qi's money came from.

"The fact that the national treasury has no money does not mean that Qi has no money. Who among the royal family members is poor? As the King of Qi, how could I have less money than them?" King Jian of Qi asked with a smile.

"The position of prime minister is worth 300,000; the position of minister is worth 200,000; the position of senior official is worth 100,000; would you like to buy one as well, Commander Xuan Jian?" King Jian of Qi asked with a smile.

Hei Bai Xuan Jian understood. No wonder there was so much corruption in Qi State. It turned out that the biggest corrupt official in Qi State was King Jian of Qi!
