Unfortunately, we don't know that. Mainly because Qin Xi Huangdi (or Qin Shi HUandi) lived 200 bc. From that time we only have one report. It's the "Shiji" written by Sima Qian, who lived 120 years after Qin Xi Huangdi died. So everything he wrote, are based on stories and legends. Often we can't tell what is true, because some of those stories are too crazy and weird to be true.
But, we know he killed a lot. It's possible that it was a million or even more.
People died during the wars he thought, people starved because they had to pay high taxes, a lot died while building the Great Wall, killed scholars and a lot more.

Were samurai ever mercenaries?
Yes. The samurai themselves began as a sort of mercenary force -in the sense of 'warrior-for-hire'- and for much of recorded Japanese history it was common for the survivors of the losing side of a battle to become soldiers of fortune. After the Tokugawa clan united Japan, many warriors fled the country, not only from the defeat itself, but also if the samurai were Christian converts, since Christianity was outlawed under the Tokugawa. Such warrior exiles served many nationalities, and were often prized, not for fancy swords, or mythical skills (although they were still respected as elite warriors), but for their -almost wreckless- daring and total disregard for their own lives in battle. The most famous such mercenary was Yamada Nagamasa, who established a Japanese settlement under the patronage of the king of Ayutthaya (modern day Thailand), where they were highly valued for their martial skills and made elite bodyguards. It was also recorded that the king of Cambodia was grateful for warriors of his Japanese settlement for helping him crush a rebellion. Similarly, the Spanish, the Dutch, and the Portuguese employed them to crush revolts in their newly acquired colonies accross South and South East Asia as well as in battles against eachother. For example, the Portuguese used samurai mercenaries in the Siege of Malacca in 1606, where they supposedly served with distinction against the Dutch.
