Chapter 84: Knowledge is Power (1)
The Gold Will Merchants had grown at an impressive speed and scale.
In just a few years, it becomes completely unrecognizable.
Normally, having so much money would attract all sorts of vermin, including thieves and robbers.
However, the Head Merchant had blocked all of those pesky interruptions with money, recruiting those in power through bribes and kickbacks.
With such strong backing, there were few who could afford to mess with him and his merchants.
Of course, some were still blinded by greed and forgot the value of their lives, but they were all easily handled by the guards.
While the Head Merchant had become outstanding in terms of power, wealth, and military might, he didn't stop there.
His greed was like the ocean.
Thankfully, he was never blinded by his greed to the point where he couldn't judge right or wrong. He didn't go too far in order to obtain more wealth.
