Chapter 950: Monopolize Business

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When the slaves heard the word ?brother?, they had complex feelings. The commander of the Wei Wu Army and the Great Lord of the King Lu Mountain was an extremely unique individual. One could not help but look at him.

In reality, everyone already knew that he loved money to death.

But when they saw that Wen Zaifou had given the Wei Wu Army Nangeng City, they were all smiles. For many years, Nangeng City had become an essential city when the Black Feather Army fought in the North Region. Thus, if the Black Feather Army came to attack again, the Wei Wu Army would be the first to be attacked.

But some felt that it was strategic for Wen Zaifou to place the Wei Wu Army in Nangeng City. In the future, the Black Feather Army might no longer come back…

But Lu Shu did not think about this. If the Black Feather Army did not come, he could invite them! After all, he could still do business with them, right?

When the Black Feather Army came again, the Wei Wu Army would immediately hide in the King Lu Mountain. They would not care even if you committed a mass massacre outside. He would wait to collect the remains afterwards.

At that moment, someone said, ?My master congratulates you on obtaining Nangeng City. He hopes that there will be amiable relations between us…?

Suddenly, someone thought of something. If one million notes was enough to become brothers with the commander of the Wei Wu Army, then… he suddenly had a bold idea!

One of the slaves said, ?Great Commander, what if my master is willing to give you five million notes??

Lu Shu paused for two seconds. ?Then he can take me as his adoptive father!?

The slave was dumbfounded. No, wait. There was something wrong with your logic. Why should he accept you as his adoptive father?

So as long as they gave enough money, they could take him as their father?

?From Li Cong?s distress, +666!?

?From…?

?How about it?? Lu Shu laughed cheerily. ?Are you interested??

The slave was silent. ?We don?t have any money. We?ve had some problems recently with money transfer.?

Lu Shu seemed slightly disappointed. ?Oh. Then you can come back when you have the money.?

The slaves hurriedly thanked Lu Shu. They could not wait any longer here. The longer they waited, the worse it was for their hearts…

After the slaves left, Lu Shu looked at Liu Yizhao. ?So we?ve returned to your territory.?

But Liu Yizhao caused Lu Shu to have complex feelings. ?Everything under the heavens belongs to the king. Great Lord, this is your territory.?

Lu Shu had been thinking. What would happen if they knew about the truth? Would they attack him in their rage? But the problem was, there was no use for him to explain the truth…

He led the Wei Wu Army to advance towards Nangeng City that night and accepted the rights as the head of the city. When Lu Shu thought about becoming the head of a city, he was slightly excited. This meant that he had his own territory, right? The King Lu Mountain could not quite be considered his.

Lu Shu had just wanted to blend in with the soldiers of the Wei Wu Army and be chosen for the Sword Hut selections. How had he become the head of a city?

He had switched from handling soap to handling people…

On the way to Nangeng City, Zhang Weiyu asked curiously, ?What are you planning to do in Nangeng City??

?Make soap,? said Lu Shu, as if it was a natural thing to do.

Zhang Weiyu could not understand. How much money was he able to make from selling soap?

Their current income was ten million notes. But the problem was, he had spent all that income on armor for the Wei Wu Army, right? Furthermore, who said that selling soap generated less profit than collaborating with others?

To be honest, collaborations were only restricted to the palace. There was no Internet in the Luniverse. Not everyone could place bets. Lu Shu had realized early on that most of the commoners could not enter gambling dens. Only those who had extra money would do so.

But soap was different. Commoners needed soap.

Was there no future for commodities? Their future was bright…

Just last year, the biggest commodities company on earth had an annual revenue of 500 billion dollars… this was under the circumstance that they had not monopolized the market. If they had done so, their annual revenue might have reached one trillion dollars…

Of course, Lu Shu did not dream of earning so much money, nor was he capable of doing so. It would be fine as long as he was able to bring back magical stone, magical weapons, techniques, and local specialties.

He had gradually formed feelings towards the Wei Wu Army as well. It was good to leave a retreat route for them when he left. Who did not want to have more money?

The civilians in Nangeng City were worried that the new head of the city would exploit them. After all, when Liu Yizhao was around, he had not exploited the commoners, but everyone knew how the other heads of cities were.

The nearby Wei Wu Army had exploited Yun An City for many years. And this time, the Wei Wu Army was here to occupy Nangeng City…

Typically, armies were stationed outside cities, but that was because they had many people. Since the Wei Wu Army only had 5000 people, Lu Shu let them stay in the city.

Thus, the civilians in Nangeng City realized that the first thing that the Wei Wu Army did after arriving was to buy a piece of land. Then, they built a few dozen three story buildings and constructed a military camp.

This was the first time that an army had occupied Nangeng City. The civilians were on tenterhooks. But after one month, there were no incidents where the Wei Wu Army disturbed the civilians. Furthermore, some said that the previous head of Nangeng City was in the Wei Wu Army. Some also saw the soldiers from the Qing Sai Army.

Slowly, everyone realized that the Wei Wu Army was not as terrible as they had expected.

Then, the Wei Wu Army opened a factory. The head of the city started to develop policies and give out subsidies for planting peanuts. He also started to purchase minerals, recruit factory workers, and produced soap.

The civilians in Nangeng City were dumbfounded by these dazzling actions. What were they up to?

Then, they saw many trade caravans arrive in Nangeng City. They took away with them boxes of intricate soap.

These trade caravans were connections that Lu Shu had already established. They were the families behind the Song Ji gambling den and the Li Ji gambling den.

Everyone was willing to make connections with the Wei Wu Army, as selling soap was a very lucrative system. Just as the Wei Wu Army gave up on fighting and started to produce soap, the palace was short on soap.

The upper class ladies grabbed their greasy heads and complained everyday. Why had such a good thing like soap disappeared?

Lu Shu regretted that he had not produced shampoo. It would have become a great business opportunity, right? In the past, no one cared whether their hair was greasy. But after they had enjoyed being clean, it was different.

When soap reappeared in the palace, many people were shocked. The Wei Wu Army had invented soap? They were adept at fighting, right? How were they able to produce soap?

What kind of army was this?!

At that moment, the Sword Hut selection had finally begun! Lu Shu did not bring anyone else along with him. He simply embarked north with Lu Xiaoyu. No one outside knew that the commander of the Wei Wu Army had left Nangeng City.
