Gao Wu Da Qin: You don't want your secret to be known, do you?

Chapter 150 The Yellow Emperor Dies and Is Buried at Qiaoshan Mountain

Some people drank themselves into oblivion. ♞👣 ➅➈ş𝔥𝕌x.ⒸỖ爪♔🐺

Some people didn't sleep all night.

In Xianyang, the Zhengyang Palace was brightly lit.

Li Si and Zhao Gao, two trusted ministers, both had red eyes and looked exhausted.

There was no other reason than that two days earlier, Ying Zheng had received a letter left by Qin Feng.

Qin Feng left Ying Zheng with a difficult question—the stock market, Brother Zheng, are you interested? If so, then take a stake! Invest!

When Ying Zheng received Qin Feng's proposal and saw the eight characters "Everyone for the common good, the world in harmony," he immediately had a bad feeling.

If these words had come from Confucianists or Taoists, Ying Zheng would have disregarded them, but he absolutely refused to believe that such eight words could come from the mouth of a scoundrel like the strategist!

He definitely wasn't holding back a good fart!

As expected, after Ying Zheng finished reading the plan for building the Datong Stock Market left by Qin Feng, he took a deep breath and muttered that he had overestimated the kid's potential.

Ying Zheng already thought the content on his liberal arts exam was outrageous enough, but now, seeing his stock market manipulation, he wanted to curse, "You devil! You are using people's greed to poison the world!"

Is this something a human being could do?

With everyone participating and investing in stocks, if you were to trigger a few circuit breakers and limit-down days, wouldn't you ruin the financial system of an entire empire?

If the stock market crashes, it won't just be a problem for a few countries, but a disaster for all of humanity!

Ying Zheng's first thought was to get rid of Qin Feng, who wrote the plan. This kind of scoundrel who brought disaster to the country and the people would cause trouble sooner or later if he was allowed to stay!

However, Ying Zheng soon realized something else: since finance has such great power, it also means that finance can be weaponized!

If I could use the stock market as a financial weapon to devastate the economies of the other six states and seize their wealth for Qin, wouldn't the people of those six states be filled with resentment?

When the time comes, we will send troops to conquer the six kingdoms, and we will surely achieve hegemony!

After much deliberation, Ying Zheng knew that Qin Feng had handed him a poisoned cake, but he still couldn't resist taking a bite.

Then, Ying Zheng summoned Zhao Gao and Li Si, his most economically savvy subordinates, to a meeting.

This meeting lasted for three days and two nights.

Behind the curtain, Ying Zheng's voice was filled with weariness: "My dear ministers, how is the research going?"

Li Si hesitated and shook his head. "Your Majesty, we can't possibly reach the top. This isn't a mathematical problem; it's a problem of human nature! It's better if this box isn't opened. Once it is, the slightest disturbance could cause a company, a group, or a family to be wiped out, with no chance of recovery! I suggest we don't follow Qin Feng's business."

Zhao Gao said, "In my humble opinion, although this box will release a demon, it will undoubtedly bring profits to the empire! Especially since this business is led by Qin Feng. Given Qin Feng's loyalty to Your Majesty, he wouldn't dare to cheat you. I estimate he will leave some secrets for Your Majesty. I suggest we follow up!"

Zhao Gao and Li Si held two completely opposite opinions. At this moment, Ying Zheng seemed thoughtful. "I very much want to do this deal, but this time I cannot intervene! Zhao Gao, do you understand what to do?"

Zhao Gao understood immediately. "My men will establish a corresponding private organization to invest the first batch of angel round funds in the Datong stock market through a corporate alliance. Only after we place our bets will the other six countries place theirs. As the seven countries gradually invest in Qin Feng, the stock market will open. At that time, with our greed, we will be able to sweep through the seven countries!"

Li Si said, "But the Datong stock market is actually a gambling game. It is easily affected by all kinds of rumors and news, and it can easily lead to the bankruptcy of various companies."

Zhao Gao chuckled and said, "Prime Minister Li, you are mistaken. Businesses don't only generate profits when they're alive; they can generate profits even when they're dead! If we can buy up important but bankrupt businesses from the other six states at low prices, wouldn't we be able to secretly control their economies?"

Li Si asked, "What if other countries buy up bankrupt companies of our Great Qin at rock-bottom prices?"

Zhao Gao spoke eloquently, "Then that's your problem, Prime Minister Li! The Great Qin Enterprise Alliance has always operated under your control. If large-scale corruption, dereliction of duty, or other actions detrimental to the enterprises occur, it means there's a problem with enterprise supervision. Even if these enterprises survive, they'll just be wasting the nation's resources and waiting to die. It's better to let them kick the bucket sooner!"

Li Si said, "Prefect Zhao is mistaken. Military and heavy industrial enterprises are not very efficient and are at a disadvantage compared to the six states. Should these be included in the stock market?"

Zhao Gao said, "The foundation of the nation should naturally not be included in the stock market, but I just think that private enterprises can be included."

Li Sidao said, "If it's just a few companies, how can we get the six countries to pledge their entire fortunes to the stock market? How can we buy up all six countries at rock-bottom prices?"

Zhao Gao said, "This requires further consideration and awaits Your Majesty's decision."

Seeing that Zhao Gao and Li Si were unable to reach a conclusion, Ying Zheng, behind the curtain, interrupted their conversation, "Enough! You two step back and continue your discussion!"

"You must provide me with a detailed list of participating companies within three days!"

Zhao Gao and Li Si both replied, "Yes! Your humble servants take their leave!"

Just as the two left, in the vast Xianyang Palace, Gai Nie, dressed in a white cloth sword robe, emerged from the shadows.

Ying Zheng looked at Gai Nie, "How is the East Sea?"

Gai Nie clasped his hands in a fist salute, "Reporting to Your Majesty, the fate of the East Sea Dragon Palace is waning ten times faster than we anticipated!"

"Under the call of the Ten Thousand Saints Dragon King, those who had previously resisted throughout the four seas surrendered and submitted to him!"

"Now, the inner and outer three halls of the East Sea Dragon Palace are no longer affected by the destiny. The only remaining image of destiny is the Yu King's Treasure Vault."

From behind the curtain, Ying Zheng's voice was calm: "What I desire is the Yu King's Treasury!"

Gai Nie said, "The Yu King's Treasure Vault will inevitably run out of life force in two months at most. At that time, Your Majesty can appoint a prince to seize the life force of Qin and merge it with the relics of Yu King, thus enhancing the life force of Qin as a human king!"

Ying Zheng said, "Very good. Two months. There must be no more war in the East Sea, otherwise it will ruin our plans. Tell your junior brother to behave himself and not cause any trouble."

"No way!" Gai Nie said with a smile. "To tell you the truth, Your Majesty, not long ago, Master Meng locked up Qin Feng and gave him a good beating! Qin Feng promised that he would not take the initiative to start a war again. The Foundation will then implement a strategy of recuperation and development. It is said that they also plan to launch a relief plan for the people of the seven kingdoms, with the goal of 'everyone for the public good,' 'universal harmony,' and 'blessings for the people of the seven kingdoms.'"

Ying Zheng said sarcastically, "Everyone for the common good, a world of harmony—is this some kind of nonsense you've heard of in your own words?"

Gai Nie smiled shyly, "Of course I don't believe it. I'd rather believe in ghosts than believe Qin Feng's words."

Ying Zheng asked, "Is there anything else?"

Gai Nie thought for a moment, "Yin Yang School's Shao Siming was injured some time ago for some unknown reason. Then, a treasure that Shao Siming was carrying was also lost. The whereabouts of that treasure are currently unknown, but it has already caused a great uproar in the blessed land. It is rumored that this item is related to the Yellow Emperor, one of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. It records the coordinates of a place called Qiaoshan."

Ying Zheng recited a line: "The Yellow Emperor died and was buried at Qiaoshan."

"That's right! Legend has it that Qiaoshan is the location of the Yellow Emperor's tomb!" Gai Nie said. "And this treasure, the Qiaoshan Map, is actually a treasure of Qin Feng, the strategist. It was originally the grand prize of the final round of the Jinghong competition. It was given to Qin Feng by the Yin Yang School to Shao Siming. But Qin Feng somehow made a lewd move on Shao Siming, so Shao Siming held back the Qiaoshan Map. When Shao Siming was injured, the Qiaoshan Map was lost instead."

Behind the curtain, Ying Zheng sighed, "Why is this kid so troublesome! He made a lewd gesture towards Shao Siming, what was he thinking?"

Gai Nie said, "In my opinion, Qin Feng's frivolous behavior towards Shao Siming was definitely not due to lust, but rather premeditated. He probably knew that this opportunity from the Yin Yang School was not a good one, otherwise he would not have preferred to ruin his reputation rather than accept the Qiaoshan Map."

Ying Zheng said, "The fall of the Qiaoshan Map also means that the Yin-Yang School will find it difficult to continue concealing the secrets of heaven and covering up the clues of Qiaoshan. Now that the world has seen it, the Qiaoshan Map will soon be revealed to the public, and the Yellow Emperor's tomb may soon be discovered. Gai Nie, what are your thoughts?"

Gai Nie said, "If Qiaoshan really appears, it will definitely appear as a secret realm of heaven and earth, just like the Demon Realm back then. It will suppress realms and cultivation levels. A ninth-realm expert like me probably wouldn't be able to get in."

"On the contrary, it's easy for those at lower levels to get in."

"Among those at the lower levels of cultivation, the most powerful is none other than Qin Feng, ranked first on the Astounding List."

"According to data analysis from Jianye City, Qin Feng's peak blood energy is around 80,000 points! Or even higher!"

"Plus Qin Feng's near-invincible super true energy, which he calls primordial energy!"

"His true strength should be around the fifth realm! Or even higher! He could contend with a sixth-realm grandmaster!"

Ying Zheng recited, "You underestimated Qin Feng. The Battle of Jianye was just him crushing the weak; it didn't push him to the limit at all. His trump cards are definitely not just high blood energy, strong vital energy, ruthless mecha, or fierce swordsmanship! He must have other killing moves, but he has never let anyone see them. I think it would be very difficult for an ordinary seventh-realm cultivator to kill him."

Gai Nie said, "How about we send Qin Feng to Qiaoshan? After all, the Qiaoshan map originally belonged to him. The Yin-Yang School calculated that if the Qiaoshan map was given to him, it might be the treasure of Qiaoshan that only he can obtain."

Ying Zheng said, "You handle this matter. Just say I know nothing about it, lest this brat try to raise the price!"

Gai Nie said, "Understood. I'll write him a letter later and ask him to make a trip to Qiaoshan."

After pondering for a moment, Ying Zheng asked again, "Did the Master win or lose the game of chess at the Heavenly Gate?"

Gai Nie said, "We won, but on the way back, Master encountered a troublesome fellow. That person claimed to be a powerful being destined for future tribulations and wanted to hold a debate with Master. However, Master slapped him down and knocked him down from his cultivation level. Now he has fled and his whereabouts are unknown. Master was furious and informed all the philosophers that if they encountered this scoundrel, they should kill him without mercy!"

Ying Zheng said, "It's good that you've won. You may step down!"

"yes!"

Gai Nie turned around, and inside Xianyang Palace, it was pitch black.
