The Lord's Empire (Part 2)

Chapter 507-511

Chapter 507: Wind Dragon Lord

Back at Great Qin, Zhao Fu stood in front of ten or so wooden cages, in which there were ten or so wild beasts. There were wolves, boars, bears, snakes, and other animals.

These animals all had a 'King' title, and Great Qin had been catching such animals because the King's Crown needed King's Aura, which could be accumulated bit by bit from such creatures.

Zhao Fu took out the King's Crown and ten or so black sword lights shot out into those animals' heads. The animals bellowed and roared, immediately dying, and ten or so traces of a golden aura rose out of their bodies and floated into the King's Crown.

Zhao Fu sensed the King's Crown's power after devouring that King's Aura, and he smiled.

Next, Zhao Fu decided to take care of internal affairs.

Before, Zhao Fu had planned for Great Qin to develop like system main cities, and he wanted residents to start contributing to the cities as much as possible.

First, anyone who worked for Great Qin would have a steady wage, whether it was a soldier or an ordinary resident.

Of course, the point of giving out money was to raise the economy, or else it would lose its worth. Zhao Fu greatly encouraged the development of Great Qin's businesses, and this was in both external and internal trade.

Zhao Fu allowed residents to set up their own shops on almost every street - there were restaurants, tailor shops, and grocery stores, and he also allowed them to set up small stalls or carts as well.

These developments would cause the residents' quality of living to become higher, and their loyalty to Great Qin would also become higher.

Under Great Qin's encouragements, many people found opportunities - these included Elves, Gnomes, and Ratfolk. All sorts of races opened shops, causing Great Qin to become quite lively.

Now that they were encouraging trade and giving wages, they also started taking taxes. After all, a nation's wealth came from taxes, and this was essential.

Taxes could provide a nation with enormous fortune, but if they were not controlled well, they could endanger a nation. Taxes that were too heavy could result in rebellions, so they had to establish a good system.

Seeing the Great Qin City become more and more lively, Zhao Fu smiled.

A few days later, a pillar of black light shot into the air as Great Qin leveled up into an Advanced City. Great Qin had been only a bit away from leveling up, and taking down Fragrant Moon City had provided a large amount of EXP. As they continued to conquer villages and towns in the wilderness, they finally accumulated enough EXP to level up the Great Qin City.
