Chapter 630 One Hundred Thousand Qin Army
Chapter 627: One Hundred Thousand Qin Army
With Qin Hao's current status, it would be unusual for him not to have even a concubine. Therefore, Qin Hao did not hide Yun'er's existence from Liu Mu.
Liu Mu also had no feeling of disgust towards her husband's only concubine.
“You are sister Yun’er, right? My husband told me on the way back that we will be sisters from now on, and my sister will help me manage the Qin Mansion.”
Yoona is obviously older than Liu Mu, but Liu Mu calls her his sister. This shows that although Liu Mu is polite to her, he has already put himself in the position of the hostess.
It can be seen that Liu Mu did not take Yuner, a concubine who was a maid, in his eyes. In his opinion, Yuner was not a threat to her at all, and Yuner naturally did not have the courage to compete with the princess for favor.
Seeing Yoon'er's submissive look, Liu Mu was also very satisfied, and now the only person who could pose a threat to her was the legendary female general Mu Guiying.
Liu Mu enthusiastically took Yun'er's hand and asked with a smile: "Sister Yun'er, do you know General Mu Guiying?"
“Of course, Your Highness the Princess also heard about Sister Mu’s deeds in Chang’an?”
“The name of Mu Guiying, the Detachment of Women, has long been known to me. I really want to get to know her.”
Then give it a try. Of course, Liu Mu said this in his heart.
"What's the problem? Princess, wait a moment, I will send someone to ask Sister Mu to come over."
Looking at the innocent Yun'er, Liu Mu suddenly burst into laughter and thought to himself: This Yun'er is really innocent and cute. No wonder her husband wants to take her as his only concubine.

At the Nanyang Military and Political Conference, after listening to the statements of the ministers, Qin Hao also fully understood everything that happened in Nanyang during his absence.
In the first month after Qin Hao left Nanyang, some Nanyang aristocratic families, instigated by the Yuan family, united to prepare to surround Qin Hao.
However, Liu Ji had already seen through it, and used this to set up an ambush and eliminate all the die-hards in one fell swoop.
At this point, Nanyang has completely become the land of Qin Hao's family, and the family no longer dares to disobey Qin Hao.
In the next three months, Shen Wansan joined forces with the Nanyang Family to form a Nanyang caravan, and major factories also worked overtime to produce goods for sale.
After three months of traveling back and forth, the Nanyang caravan has sold Nanyang's specialty products, such as soap, glass, paper and other items, to various states under the leadership of the Han Dynasty. The sales volume is also extremely hot and the demand exceeds supply.
Later, there was no need for Nanyang caravans to go out. After feeling the call of wealth, caravans from other prefectures and counties took the initiative to come to Nanyang to purchase goods, and then transported them back to the prefectures and counties for sale.
Although the consumption of this round trip is huge, the profits that can be obtained are still very large, so the caravans from various states to and from Nanyang are as numerous as carps crossing the river.
Relying on the attraction of special products, Nanyang's commercial operation has officially got on the right track, making money every day.
The profits earned through these three months of business operations are enough to repay the land debt owed to the Nanyang family.
The Nanyang family also enjoyed the benefits after joining the Nanyang caravan, so they all voluntarily gave up their land debts and instead demanded exchange for goods of the same value.
As a member of the Nanyang caravan, the benefits they enjoy are definitely much greater than those of caravans from other places.
And goods with the same value as the land, when transferred through their hands, will double the benefits.
As a smart family, of course they will choose the goods, and Wang Meng and others will not refuse them. They order all goods to be supplied to local families first, and they will exchange the debt without spending money first. Every specialty product in Nanyang, whether it is pure colored glaze or fragrant soap, has caused a great sensation, but the strongest reaction is paper.
with high officials, nobles, aristocratic families, and hundreds of families all in every state and county, they all love this new paper.
I want to snap up more, and then copy the documents I have collected and pass them on from generation to generation.
The emergence of new paper made scholars all over the world praise Qin Hao's merits, and Qin Hao's fame skyrocketed again, but he still had not completed the sixth link of the reputation task, "leaving his name for a hundred generations."
Paper, glass and other items, while bringing wealth and reputation to Qin Hao, also brought countless covetous people.
Once you master the manufacturing technology of new paper, colored glaze and soap, you can have endless wealth, which is an irresistible temptation for all princes.
The interests were so exciting that almost all the princes sent spies to take away the production technology from Qin Hao.
Qin Hao had already guessed this, so he took very strict measures to prevent theft.
In addition to the layer-by-layer care of trapped camps and broken military camps, even Li Cunxiao's Flying Tiger Army and Ran Min's Huben Camp were sent there. In addition, Jinyi Guards were under close surveillance.
To put it bluntly, even if the great master comes, Qin Hao is absolutely sure to keep him.
Such a tight guard resulted in the arrest of more than a dozen spies every day, so much so that the Wancheng Prison was almost full.
"My lord, now that our army's finances have eased, I suggest that we expand our army immediately."
Wang Meng added with a smile, and then all the ministers also expressed their opinions on the army expansion, but no one opposed the army expansion. After all, the number of Nanyang Qin army was indeed too small.
“What Military Advisor Wang said is reasonable. Since our army wants to expand this time, we must take a bigger step. This time I will expand our army to 100,000 at once.”
Qin Hao's heroic words shocked everyone and left them speechless for a long time.
For today's Nanyang, it is not that a hundred thousand troops cannot be raised, nor is it insufficiently recruited. It is just a prefect who raises a hundred thousand troops. Isn't this a bit...
Everyone knows it, but no one points it out clearly.
Seeing this, Qin Hao smiled calmly and said solemnly: "Nanyang is almost invincible. How can I protect Nanyang without sufficient troops?
Of course, in order not to let the other princes think that Nanyang has ulterior motives, the plan to expand the army to 100,000 must still be carried out secretly, and it is enough to announce the expansion to 50,000. "
“My lord is wise.” All the ministers said in unison.
Qin Hao nodded with satisfaction, and immediately after the news that four people were to be appointed to serve as prefects in Bingzhou was announced, everyone present was excited.
Originally, it was thought that there were only two seats for the position of prefect, but now there are twice as many, which means that everyone has the hope of being qualified for the position of prefect. How can we not be excited about this.
That is a prefect. Even a prefect who has no military power and only holds political power is still a prefect!
Upon seeing this, Qin Hao immediately patted the table to signal everyone not to get excited, and then prepared to announce the appointment list of prefects.
Second update, please subscribe, recommend, and vote monthly... The battle to destroy the Ming Dynasty will soon come, and the time jump after that will be huge.
