"How much salt have been collected!"
Liu Xian asked with red eyes.
"Your Highness, the price is really too high. In just this morning, two hundred thousand taels of silver have gone out of our account!"
Yang Sheng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He never expected that there would be so much inventory in Liu Deng's warehouse.
"Keep collecting, I don't believe how much inventory he still has in hand now!"
Liu Xian is desperate now. This has reached the final point of confrontation. If he gives up at this time, he will really fall short.
"But Your Highness the Crown Prince, why don't we let it go first and let King Chu and the others..."
Yang Sheng hesitated and said.
After all, they played too much this time. They spent real money and money, and in the end they got salt lumps that even dogs wouldn't eat.
Moreover, looking at the current situation, Liu Deng has been keeping the last 30,000 stones of refined salt in his hands.
After all, those salt lumps are made in China. Who knows how many of these things this guy still has in his hands. If he keeps this kind of thing in his hands, he will almost certainly not be able to sell it in the future.
If they were all eaten by themselves, wouldn't it be a free advantage for King Chu and the others?
"At this time, don't settle these small accounts. Mr. Yang, do you know where the biggest difference between you and Mr. Gongsun is?"
Liu Xian was obviously unhappy and asked after rolling his eyes at him.
"Please give me some advice, Your Highness the Prince..."
Yang Sheng's heart moved, and he immediately understood that he had made Liu Xian unhappy.
"The only difference between you two is that Mr. Gongsun is good at the big picture, but falls short in the small things. Mr. Sheep, you are just the opposite. You are good at the small things, but not good at the big picture!"
After Liu Xian said this, Yang Sheng suddenly felt embarrassed.
What the hell are you talking about?
"Just do as I tell you. No matter how much goods this guy has in hand, I will eat as much as he comes!"
Liu Xian waved his hand and said to Yang Sheng impatiently.
"Xiao Chen understands!"
Yang Sheng is really aggrieved. This tnd saved him money, but instead caused a lot of trouble...
But Yang Sheng didn't know that what Liu Xian cares about now is not money. Wu State is now sitting on a mountain of gold and silver. As long as the sea doesn't dry up, a lot of money will naturally flow in every year.
What's more, there are also a large number of copper mines discovered in Yuzhang County. The income from these two items alone amounts to tens of millions every year.
Who is the richest person in the world? That is not the current emperor Liu Heng, but the King of Wu Liu Bi!
What Liu Xian wants now is to use this incident to establish Wu's status among the seven vassal states.
Compared to this general trend, what are a few copper coins?
"Your Majesty, Master Sun is kneeling outside the palace again, holding a dagger to his neck. He said that if you don't see him, he will die immediately..."
When Liu Deng was drinking some sour plum soup and enjoying the coolness with a big ice cube in his arms, Du Ziteng suddenly walked in from the door and whispered.
"Why does this guy do so much trouble all day long? It's really troublesome. Let that kid come in!"
Liu Deng put down the ice cubes in his hand impatiently. This prince was really boring. If it weren't for these ice cubes, how would he be able to survive this hot summer!
Liu Deng now misses the second-hand broken air conditioner from before. Although that thing rebels from time to time and consumes an astonishing amount of power, no matter what, it is still very useful in summer!
"Your Majesty, since you have opened a warehouse to store salt, why did you sell the salt to those profiteers at a high price? Even though you made some copper coins from it, what you lost was to gain the people's support for the country! What you did was really because of small things. , This is the way to subjugate a country!"
As soon as he entered the door, Sun Deyi knelt on the ground and began to cry.
"Here, bring him a bowl of sour plum soup, add more ice cubes, and give him a wet handkerchief to wipe his face!"
Liu Deng was convinced that this guy was on the verge of life and death at every turn, but he could see that this guy was indeed loyal to him.
Unexpectedly, my ex is quite good at recognizing people!
Although the selected courtiers were a little pedantic, they were all really loyal. They were thinking only of themselves.
Originally, this kind of thing should not be told to him, but now it seems that this boy is a bit wasteful in his current position, what a censor.
To put it bluntly, he is a talker. He is so loyal and stubborn that it would be a pity not to leave him to see the salt field.
Although Zhang Tu is a bastard, he is the Taifu of Dai after all. It is not a problem for this old guy to huddle by the salt lake all day long.
At that time, I happened to send this guy to the edge of the Salt Lake to help him get his old guy back. I had someone who could help me with my plans below.
"Your Majesty, as long as you listen to my advice, I will be willing to die in the sun outside!"
As Sun Deyi spoke, he knelt on the ground again and kowtowed.
"Can you shut the fuck up? Just do whatever I ask you to do. Drink the sour plum juice and wash my face. I'll go somewhere with you later. If you still insist on your opinion after reading this, I will I’ll sell you all the junk!”
Liu Deng said impatiently.
This grown man is always on the verge of life and death, and he bursts into tears at every turn. His acting skills could win him a fucking gold medal!
"Your Majesty, I..."
Sun Deyi originally wanted to say something, but looking at Liu Deng's unkind eyes, he swallowed the words that came to his lips.
"That's right, just do whatever I ask you to do. Drink the sour plum juice quickly, wash your face for me, and come out with me now!"
Du Ziteng hurriedly served him a bowl of iced sour plum soup. Normally, this sour plum soup only needs to be chilled on ice, but his prince was greedy for cold and had to make ice flowers every time.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Sun De took the sour plum soup and drank it in one gulp, but the maid next to him handed him a handkerchief. After wiping his face, he saluted Liu Deng again.
"You have to think about it. Once you see me, you may not be able to go home for the next few years. Even if you go home, you will need to be followed closely by soldiers. Are you willing?"
Before defeating the old boy of King Wu, Liu Deng was not prepared to promote his method of making salt. After all, this method was too simple.
Moreover, for King Wu and the others, it is actually more convenient. If we promote it now, wouldn't we give money to that old boy?
