Chapter 234 Great Qin Workers (2)
w.a.n.g Mu carefully folded the paper and handed it to the deputy general.
Seeing them like this, Zhou Shu once again wondered if he had underestimated the value of the Iron Smelting Hands Technique.
But thinking about it, it seemed that he had asked for a lot…
The three thousand Great Qin elite soldiers carefully escorted Zhou Shu’s Iron Smelting Hands cultivation method back to the capital.
!!As for Great Qin’s General w.a.n.g Mu, he sealed his cultivation and stayed in Great Xia’s diplomatic mission as a hostage.
When Zhou Shu thought about this matter, it felt a little magical.
Was Great Qin really going to go to such lengths for the sake of the Iron Smelting Hands Technique?
“Brother w.a.n.g, it’s a lonely journey. Why don’t we have a match?” Meng Bai invited w.a.n.g Mu onto the carriage.
Although w.a.n.g Mu was now the collateral, he was still a great general. They couldn’t humiliate him too much.
w.a.n.g Mu naturally didn’t have any objections. He boarded Meng Bai’s carriage in an imposing manner. His proud look made him look nothing like a hostage.
When he walked past Zhou Shu, Zhou Shu raised his hand.
w.a.n.g Mu frowned slightly as he continued forward. Zhou Shu hid a strand of hair and was overjoyed.
Great Qin’s General w.a.n.g Mu’s hair.
If not for the fact that he had sealed his cultivation, it would have been difficult for him to obtain his hair.
Even though Zhou Shu didn’t dare to use the Zhuang Zhou b.u.t.terfly Dream Technique right now, as his cultivation increased, he would no longer have to worry about the side effects of the technique.
With w.a.n.g Mu’s hair, he could enter a dream as w.a.n.g Mu anytime.
Everything aside, w.a.n.g Mu’s military tactics were still very valuable.
“Marquis.” Chen Ji came to Zhou Shu’s side and looked at him with admiration.
Great Qin’s General w.a.n.g Mu had become a hostage. He didn’t even dare imagine such a thing!
But the marquis had turned it into reality!
The constant change of events on this trip made him dizzy.
Thinking about how Great Qin had agreed to everything he wrote on the list, he felt his heartbeat accelerate.
As the marquis had said, this might be the only chance in my lifetime.
This time, I should be able to pay off the Green Dragon Crescent Blade!
No, that’s not right. The marquis gave me the Green Dragon Crescent Blade, and he also gave me the opportunity to make a fortune. It’s not appropriate to use this money to repay the money for the Green Dragon Crescent Blade.
Chen Ji felt that he could no longer repay Zhou Shu.
“Keep moving, General Chen,” Zhou Shu said with a relaxed expression while patting Chen Ji’s shoulder.
Chen Ji nodded. He would think about how to repay the marquis later.
He reorganized the guards and continued to lead the way.
He had benefited so much from this trip. How could he not work hard?
The diplomatic mission continued forward.
Yin Wuyou rode her horse side by side with Zhou Shu and suddenly asked, “Zhou Shu, do you have any wishes?”
“What wish?” Zhou Shu said curiously.
“It’s when there’s something you particularly want or want to do,” Yin Wuyou said.
“Why do you ask?” Zhou Shu said.
“Nothing. Just asking.” Yin Wuyou gathered the hair on her forehead nonchalantly.
“I want absolute freedom. Does this count as a wish?” Zhou Shu joked.
Yin Wuyou blinked her bright eyes with a puzzled expression.
Zhou Shu smiled awkwardly. Alright, this was a little too much.
“Wishes, huh?” Zhou Shu pondered. What are my wishes?
Forging, becoming strong, making workers everywhere…
Are these wishes?
Perhaps they are.
What else do I want?
He turned to look at Yin Wuyou… “Well, I wish…” Zhou Shu said.
“What?” Yin Wuyou asked anxiously.
“Guess?” Zhou Shu laughed.
Yin Wuyou was so angry that she wanted to stomp her feet. You want me to guess again?!
How would I know?!
Perhaps it was because Great Qin had gotten what they wanted and obtained the cultivation method of the Iron Smelting Hands, or perhaps it was because Great Qin’s General w.a.n.g Mu was a hostage in the Great Xia diplomatic mission. In any case, the Great Xia diplomatic mission’s subsequent journey was very smooth.
Several days later, they were getting closer and closer to Hangu Pa.s.s.
On this day, a group of Great Qin soldiers caught up with the Great Xia diplomatic mission.
They weren’t here to cause trouble. They were here to deliver something.
Dozens of huge wooden chests were thrown into the camp of the Great Xia diplomatic mission. Then they turned around and left. There were so many soldiers among them, but they didn’t say a word. “This is the first batch.” w.a.n.g Mu’s voice came from Meng Bai’s carriage.
Although w.a.n.g Mu was here as a hostage, it didn’t feel like he was a hostage at all.
Every day, other than eating, he slept. When he was awake, he would play chess with Meng Bai.
Looking at his relaxed expression, Zhou Shu suspected that he was taking the opportunity to give himself a break!
He got paid while resting and even relieved the Qin emperor of his worries!
How could he be so shameless!
After sending the first batch of items, a team of Qin soldiers would send dozens of chests over every two days.
Zhou Shu had asked for too many things…
The Great Xia diplomatic mission had 3,000 people, and each of them wrote down what they wanted. Each of them wrote down at least one or two items and at most three or four items.
Although most people didn’t dare to ask for an exorbitant price, with so many people, it was still a ma.s.sive amount of resources.
Later on, because there were too many chests, the Great Xia diplomatic mission’s speed slowed down.
The amount of things had become happy worries.
In the end, Zhou Shu simply distributed everything. Everyone would carry what they requested.
Everyone would take care of their requests themselves.
Of course, he didn’t have to carry his share.
There were plenty of people fighting to carry it for him.
“General w.a.n.g, I say, you’re not here to be a hostage on purpose, are you?”
The Great Xia diplomatic mission set up camp to rest. w.a.n.g Mu was sitting beside a bonfire. When roasted meat was delivered, he ate it without hesitation.
As expected of a first-rank martial artist, not only did he s.n.a.t.c.h it quickly, but he also ate it even faster.
And he ate a lot!
He could eat as much as eight to ten ordinary soldiers.
Zhou Shu’s eyelids twitched. w.a.n.g Mu had been eating like this for the past few days.
Although he was a hostage, Great Xia had to be humane. They couldn’t possibly stop him.
In the end, it was a loss…
If he had known that Great Qin would send the items over so easily, why would they need a hostage?
This was purely inviting a git!
“Without me as a hostage, would you have handed over the cultivation method of the Iron Smelting Hands to Great Win first?” w.a.n.g Mu said indifferently.
Although the Great Xia diplomatic mission had been traveling, w.a.n.g Mu did feel very comfortable.
He didn’t have to worry about anything, and neither did he have to do anything every day. He couldn’t remember the last time he’d lived like this.
Although the Great Qin’s general was powerful, when could he let his guard down?
On the contrary, he really didn’t have to worry about anything in the Great Xia diplomatic mission.
Anyway, being a hostage was a public job!
“General w.a.n.g, Great Qin has almost finished delivering everything. Why don’t you go back?” Zhou Shu said.
Although it didn’t cost much to feed a person, a little food was still food.
“You have to know what you’re doing. Since I promised you, I’ll send you to Hangu Pa.s.s,” w.a.n.g Mu said righteously.
Zhou Shu rolled his eyes. Are you addicted to being a hostage?
Do you really think I’m a pushover?
On this trip to Great Qin, I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to find many workers. You came to me yourself.
“General w.a.n.g, you’re a general of Great Qin after all. The sword you use is too ordinary. It’s not worthy of your status at all.” Zhou Shu’s gaze landed on the sword at w.a.n.g Mu’s waist.
w.a.n.g Mu rolled his eyes. Is my sword ordinary?
This is the famous sword ranked ninth in the Heaven-grade Armament Manual!
It’s just that it’s never killed a first-rank martial artist.
But how many weapons in the world have this record?
“Hmph, Great General Meng is still the commander-in-chief of your Great Xia. He doesn’t even have a decent weapon. What right do you have to criticize me?” w.a.n.g Mu said angrily.
Meng Bai was speechless. If you want to talk, just talk. Why are you involving me?
I was seriously injured for many years and stopped fighting. Even before I was injured, I was only a second-rank martial artist. Isn’t it normal for me not to have a heaven-grade weapon?
“Who says our great general doesn’t have a weapon he can use?” Zhou Shu shook his head. “Our great general’s weapon is much stronger than your sword.”
