Another Nascent Soul general also said, "The demon cultists from Mountain Baiyue are causing chaos and slaughtering the innocent like weeds! Every single one of these heretic cultists deserves to die! By the order of the ruler of Xun Country, whoever kills Xie Mingchen will be rewarded with one hundred thousand gold and the title of Mercenary Marquis!"
A hundred thousand gold? I wonder if it's a hundred thousand coins or a hundred thousand golden cakes. Li Country lacks mines and silkworms, so they use silk, while some vassal states in the Central Plains that don't have gold mines mint one-tael golden cakes for exchange for ten strings of copper coins. So a hundred thousand gold would be a million strings.
And a Mercenary Marquis is a commander of a mercenary troop of five hundred men. However, Xun Country has a hereditary military system, where these five hundred mercenaries are private troops that can be passed on to descendants.
