I Want to Build a Capital Here

If she had already witnessed such an opportunity, how could she possibly create one herself?

She coughed and said, "You guys need to find a way to get the message out, so everyone knows that someone has found the tomb of the War God of the Northern Frontier."

This caused an uproar in several countries.

The grave of the War God of the Northern Frontier!

The legends from back then were quite outrageous, saying that the War God of the Northern Frontier had found the elixir of immortality and later became an immortal.

It's just like a fantasy novel.

Anyway, this legend is very famous in the border region, Zhou Wanwan had many fantasy novels written about it.

The path to godhood for the War God of the Northern Frontier was relatively easy, as he had read many fantasy novels in his previous life.

Soon, this fantasy novel became a worldwide sensation.

Even Cheng Chao was engrossed in reading it. "Boss, this is so interesting! The first episode is about getting dumped by his fiancée."

Zhou Wanwan looked at the book and said, "A typical 'broken engagement' story, a classic 'feel-good' novel, it's bound to be a hit."

As expected, the book became a huge hit, and after it became popular, everyone started searching for the tomb of the War God of the Northern Frontier.

Zhou Wanwan found a prime location and dug through the entire area underneath, then began having her people build something similar to the Terracotta Army.

They also built many structures similar to the Egypt pyramids.

Anyway, they made this cemetery very spectacular, but of course, a cemetery can't be that simple.

It was all designed and built in imitation of the most sophisticated mechanisms.

After doing all this, she naturally also obtained a lot of the elixir of immortality.

Actually, this water of immortality is very simple; it's just a specially made blend of dozens of Chinese medicinal herbs, and it's not ordinary water either.

Since these Chinese medicinal herbs were all cultivated by Zhou Wanwan using her spiritual power, the water inside must be extraordinary as well.

Of course, it doesn't meet the standard for immortality. Where in this world is there a true elixir of immortality?

Although Zhou Wanwan is quite powerful and possesses a cheat-like ability, she has never dared to hope for immortality.

After finishing all that, she found some gold and silver jewelry, antiques and paintings, all kinds of weapons and armor, and martial arts manuals, and secretly hid them in some unknown corner.

Cheng Chao's lips twitched as he said, "These things all cost a lot of money to buy. If we leave them here, wouldn't that just be letting those people benefit?"

Zhou Wanwan said, "You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub. Also, when I asked you to build it, I told you to build 81 floors. How many floors did you build?"

Cheng Chao said:

"It's absolutely 81 levels, and each level is completely different according to your requirements."

There are all sorts of styles and characteristics.

Zhou Wanwan nodded in satisfaction. The tomb of the War God of the Northern Frontier was definitely not the same as that of ordinary people.

Seeing that the time was almost up, martial arts figures from several countries rushed towards Yanmen Pass.

Zhou Wanwan looked at the streets surrounding Yanmen Pass and said, "Hmm! Not bad, not bad, but I feel like something's missing."

Cheng Chao looked at Zhou Wanwan and said, "What's missing? I don't think anything's missing!"

Zhou Wanwan said:

"Since everyone is aiming for the War God of the Northern Frontier, they'll naturally want to buy all sorts of treasures. Let's create a black market!"

The black market needs to offer a wide variety of items to attract more customers.

This black market must be large, and the goods must be of the highest quality, in order to attract more people.

Sure enough, a few days later, people began to flock to Yanmen Pass from all directions.

Those people looked at Yanmen Pass and said, "This is Yanmen Pass? Isn't it said that Yanmen Pass is dirt poor? I don't think it looks like this at all."

"It seems like all that was a lie. This border region isn't poor at all; it's even more prosperous than our Capital!"

"Wow! You can order takeout here! And why is the takeout price so cheap?"

Anyway, takeout is much cheaper at the border than in Beijing.

There's no way around it, because the Xie Family monopolizes the food delivery market in Beijing, and Zhou Wanwan's prices are high. Both sides need to make money, so food delivery in Beijing is naturally much more expensive.

Once they reached the border, such concerns disappeared, especially since Zhou Wanwan had driven down the prices of everything there.

It's important to understand that these shops at the border don't need to spend any money; they only need raw materials.

The raw materials were all grown by Zhou Wanwan herself, so it didn't cost much.

Those who came from other places initially thought that things at the border would be very expensive, but they were shocked to see how cheap things were.

"The fabric in this shop is so cheap! It's even cheaper than when I buy wholesale."

"And this restaurant is quite affordable; this whole table of food only costs 80 coins, and the taste is really good."

"Didn't people used to say that the border region was poor? I don't think it's poor at all. I'm even thinking of coming to live in the border region."

"Alright, alright, our most important task now is to find the tomb of the War God of the Northern Frontier. I've heard..."

Zhou Wanwan sat on the sofa in the city lord's mansion. The sofa was soft, and Cheng Chao, who was next to her, reported:

"We currently have control over ten cities."

In just the last few days, prices in all ten cities have skyrocketed, with the total number of people affected likely reaching several hundred thousand.

Zhou Wanwan nodded and said, "Yes, not bad, that's the effect I wanted."

Cheng Chao continued, "But the claim of the War God of the Northern Frontier will only last for a year or two at most. What will we do after that?"

Zhou Wanwan chuckled and said, "Since there's War God of the Northern Frontier, why can't there be Goddess of the Southern Frontier? I remember the Goddess of the Southern Frontier was quite powerful back in the day..."

This area was once divided into the Southern Frontier and Northern Frontier.

That's how it came to become so many small countries.

Back then, the War God of the Northern Frontier and the Empress of the Southern Frontier were equally renowned.

Cheng Chao gave a thumbs up and said, "Master, you're too tall. I'm really curious, what exactly do you want to do?"

Zhou Wanwan chuckled softly and said, "If I told you that I want to build the capital here, would you think I'm crazy?"

"What the hell? Building the capital in this run-down place? Why would they do that?"

Zhou Wanwan said while eating grapes:

"Isn't it great? I think it would be interesting to build our own capital here."

Also, I think this place has a spring-like climate all year round, making it a very suitable place to live.

Cheng Chao and Shen Wanjun looked utterly helpless; who would believe that now?

Such a awful place, and it turns out it will become their capital.

Cheng Chao said, "Master, those old folks in our family will definitely not agree..."

Zhou Wanwan waved her hand and said:

"It's alright. Do I need their permission to build my capital here?"

Anyway, I'm in charge here. Once I've built it, they'll have no choice but to agree, whether they like it or not.

There's absolutely nothing wrong with it.

But as soon as she finished speaking, she heard the Old Scholar Tree say, "Wanwan, all those old guys are here, waiting at the door for you to call them in!"

Zhou Wanwan hissed and quickly looked for her shoes.

She's used to being comfortable here, always barefoot. Now that this group of people has arrived, they're bound to teach her a lesson.

She's going to start playing house again.
