Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

"Hahahaha, what gives you the right?!"

The Shadow Guard Commander seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world.

"Do you really think that all of this Yinshan County belongs to you, Qin Ming? There must be a limit to your arrogance!"

Facing this guy's ridicule, Qin Ming suddenly nodded seriously and said:

"I am not talented, but the county magistrate of Yinshan County is truly my man."

"what?"

As soon as this statement came out, everyone was stunned.

The Shadow Guard Commander roared in disbelief:

"Impossible! You don't have to cheat! We've already checked, and Wu Shizhong from Yinshan County has never had any contact with you!"

"Don't be afraid, everyone. The traitor King Qin is trying to disturb our minds!"

As soon as he said this, the scene suddenly became quiet.

However, those shadow guards hiding in the dark don’t need to hide anymore.

Their tracks had been discovered by Chang Baishan and others when they were in disarray just now.

When the shadow guard leader pointed at Qin Ming and shouted loudly, Qin Ming seemed very calm.

Shrugging his shoulders, he continued:

"Everyone, please try to see if you can still leave Yinshan County. Then you will know whether what I said is true."

Qin Ming spoke very sincerely and even told them everything that was about to happen.

Now all the shadow guards were a little panicked.

The shadow of death has already enveloped them!

Chang Baishan turned his head, swallowed his saliva, and his face was full of surprise.

"Your Highness, when will that stinky-faced fellow from Yinshan County come to you..."

"We can talk about this later. Kill them first."

Qin Ming didn't want to explain too much.

"understood!"

Chang Baishan and several guards received the order and immediately stepped forward.

The combat capability of the shadow guard is far inferior to that of Qin Ming's personal guards.

Even if those present were captains, commanders or other high-ranking shadow guards, they were still not good enough.

"You dare to attack the Shadow Guard? Are you planning a rebellion?!"

The Shadow Guard Commander who was just arrogant in front of Qin Ming, looking like a winner.

He hadn't lasted more than thirty moves against Chang Baishan before he was stabbed in the lower abdomen.

At this moment, he was being drenched by the rain and was running backwards frantically with wounds all over his body.

He looks like a drowned dog.

"Don't let any of them go. There are guards stationed in front of the city gate. Just chase them as much as you can. They won't be able to get far."

Qin Ming loudly instructed Chang Baishan who was going away from the rear.

Standing on the roof in the distance, Chang Baishan waved to Qin Ming with his back, and then gradually disappeared in the rain.

"Rain is a good thing. After a heavy downpour, no trace will be left."

Take off the raincoat.

Qin Ming, accompanied by several guards, opened his oil-paper umbrella and strolled towards the north city gate.

In front of the city gate, Song Dingsheng was already there, waiting with hundreds of soldiers.

Waiting with him was Wu Shizhong.

At this moment, Wu Shizhong's face was very red, and it was unclear whether it was because of excitement or fear.

Song Dingsheng found him just now and asked him to mobilize the few hundred soldiers in the county town to guard the city gates and not let anyone escape.

Although I don't know what happened.

But after hearing that this was His Highness's order, he said nothing more and immediately ordered the entire county to be blocked.

Only when he got here did he realize that the purpose was to kill the shadow guard.

This scared him to death.

Fortunately, Song Dingsheng has experienced many ups and downs since following Qin Ming.

After comforting him a few words and letting him put himself in the right position and identity and stand firm.

Wu Shizhong finally gradually accepted it.

"Your Highness."

Seeing Qin Ming coming, Song Dingsheng pulled Wu Shizhong to Qin Ming.

“How many did you catch?”

"Two, and there are probably some at other city gates as well."

Hearing this, Qin Ming frowned slightly and said:

"Keep arresting. Leave a few informants and find out the exact number of people. It's raining these days and there are fewer people on the road. First, seal off the county town. When all the shadow guards are killed, we can reopen the gates."

"Yes!"

Song Dingsheng responded, and seeing that Wu Shizhong was still standing there limply without saying a word, he suddenly felt a little disappointed with him.

"Cough cough!"

Pulled at the corner of Wu Shizhong's clothes.

Only then did Wu Shizhong react.

"Understood, Your Highness."

After two and a half days of encirclement and suppression, Chang Baishan and Qin Ming's guards killed all 27 shadow guards who came to Yinshan County.

Looking at the bright red words on the death list, Qin Ming slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

Song Dingsheng said on the side:

"Your Highness, the textile factory has sent a message saying that it is almost complete and can begin large-scale production. They would like you to send people over there."

The textile industry is upgrading again, and its scale and number of employees are expanding, which is a good thing.

After Song Dingsheng finished speaking, Qin Ming's frown relaxed a little.

"We've been here long enough, let's go."

"Yes!"

In front of the city gate, Wu Shizhong and several officials stood there in a daze to see Qin Ming off.

Port, recruitment, smuggling, killing shadow guards...

So much has happened in recent days. This is the real side of the court that he has not been exposed to in more than ten years, and Wu Shizhong has not yet fully digested it.

"I'm relying on you from now on, so be alert!"

Seeing his expression, Qin Ming smiled and walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder.

The last time he asked Song Dingsheng to go find Wu Shizhong, it was actually to tie him up on his big boat.

After Wu Shizhong killed the shadow guard, he was completely considered Qin Ming's man.

Song Dingsheng stepped forward and said earnestly:

"Old Wu, the worst thing about doing things is hesitation. Since you've chosen this path, then do it well. Following His Highness will always be much better than what you had before."

"I see."

Wu Shizhong's slightly dazed eyes finally regained clarity.

Qin Ming also set out on his journey back.

Two days later, Qin Ming returned to the outskirts of Linjiang City in a carriage that stopped and started frequently.

Cao Chuanzheng and Fang Qingyuan were standing in the factory, busy with the construction of the factory.

"Your Highness is back. It's just in time for you to come and see Lord Fang's masterpiece!"

As soon as Cao Chuan saw Qin Ming's convoy coming back, he immediately pulled Qin Ming into the factory.

A three-story building covering an area of ​​several acres was completed.

The outer layer is all made of cement and is very strong.

“This is the area where they weave and there are toilets.”

"Lord Fang was very thoughtful. He even arranged a rest area for them, and..."

Cao Chuan chattered to Qin Ming about the situation in the factory.

Fang Qingyuan was thoughtful and had divided out areas for rest, work, and accommodation, so he could start production first.

Qin Ming saw some textile workers working in the factory they had just built.

“What is the current production volume?”

Suddenly, Qin Ming thought of a more important question.

Just then Fang Qingyuan came down from upstairs.

"Your Highness, after adopting your method and implementing large-scale standardized production, the textile factory's output has gradually increased, even more than half higher than before. However, while the output is high, I have discovered an interesting pattern."

Qin Ming raised his eyebrows and asked curiously:

"What's the pattern?"
