The ministers who were friendly with Du Jie, the Minister of Industry and others, couldn't help but shake their heads.

Chang Lin glanced at the Minister of Industry and others, and immediately said in a loud voice: "Your Majesty, all the popsicles are sold out. Because there is no stock, so... I only made 15 popsicles!"

"Hahaha……"

The men immediately burst into laughter.

Even the generals felt it was a pity. This stuff was so delicious, and the more you ate it, the more energetic you became.

But... there is no comparison between 15 coins and 230,000 coins.

"Your Majesty, you have also heard that even if all these popsicles are sold out, it is only fifteen popsicles. It's okay not to do this kind of business!"

"Although King You is very talented, not every business can be successful!"

"Yes, instead of wasting a lot of time and energy on making popsicles, it is better to concentrate on refining sugar and making ice cubes. This kind of business can make our country rich!"

Du Jie and others immediately stood up and criticized Li Zhao's decision.

Seeing this, Chang Lin's Youyou voice sounded again: "Although the popsicles were only sold for fifteen guan today, but... when the old slave entered the palace, the number of popsicles ordered had exceeded 30,000, which is 30 guan. money!"

Du Jie, Minister of the Ministry of Industry: "..."

The rest of the people waited: "???"

Did you step on the horse on purpose? Can you finish it in one breath?

A penny of popsicles can be sold for thirty or forty dollars a day?

really?

They are not insular officials and they know prices very well.

It's terrible that a penny business can do dozens of business.

Prince Zhao reacted immediately and said: "You mean...this popsicle is more popular than ice cubes now?"

"Yes!" Chang Lin said with a smile: "According to the estimates of the shopkeepers, if the popsicles can be sold in the four major countries, then everyone, whether rich or poor, can afford them."

"If 10 million of the 50 million people in my country of Wu eat, then we can earn 10,000 guan a day!"

"hiss--"

This is just the Kingdom of Wu. The Kingdom of Zhou is larger than the Kingdom of Wu and has a larger population than the Kingdom of Wu.

The key is that something worth one penny can be sold for 10,000 guan a day. This is an exaggeration.

That’s 300,000 yuan a month!

When everyone thought about it, their scalps suddenly felt numb.

How many families in the current dynasty can earn 300,000 yuan a month?

Even if you give it five years, you won't be able to earn it.

The Du family in Hailong County was confiscated for only 4 to 50 million yuan!

The civil and military officials throughout the dynasty were stunned. Could the popsicle that they had ignored actually have such a huge profit?

Emperor Wu was stunned. He didn't expect the popsicle to do anything.

But when he heard that the profits in the later period were so huge, he couldn't help but feel excited.

The key is that there are really many people in the four major countries.

Du Jie and others looked embarrassed. They didn't expect the slap in the face to come so quickly. Did this dead eunuch do it on purpose?

This King You is really a genius. How did he do it?

It feels like he didn't arrange anything. Why did the popsicle explode?

"His Majesty!"

You Pushe immediately said happily: "So, our country of Wu has a lot to do in the future."

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and then showed expressions of ecstasy.

Yes, I didn’t expect popsicles to have this kind of income before, but it’s different now.

The troika of sugar, ice cubes and popsicles is out, and everyone seems to be one step closer to fulfilling their wishes.

Du Jie and others had quietly retreated to the side, not daring to say a word.

If this popsicle can really be sold to the terrifying level of 300,000 guan a month, then the revenue will be 3.6 million guan a year.

What a terrifying earning power this is.

Five years, really only five years, the Wu Kingdom will be strong.

When the big guys thought about it, they almost had an intracranial orgasm.

Prince Zhao saw the expressions of the civil servants and military generals in his eyes. What the civil servants pursued were different from what the military generals pursued, but in the end they reached the same goal by different paths.

He is just a little worried about his silly daughter, and he doesn't know if he has arrived safely now?

Since Emperor Wu said there was no problem, someone should have secretly escorted him.

"His Majesty!"

Prince Zhao immediately stood up.

Many people did not dare to ignore the appearance of the Wu Kingdom's number one military god.

"I thought that King You Li Zhao should be rewarded!"

As soon as Prince Zhao opened his mouth, the civil servants immediately scolded him.

This shameless person is not at all ambiguous about asking for credit for his future son-in-law.

"Your Majesty, I think this is not allowed!" Zuo Pushe said immediately.

"I think it's impossible!"

Civil servants immediately stood up and objected.

"I thought King You was a reward!" General Cheng immediately stood up and refuted the civil servant.

"I second the proposal!"

Military generals don't have so many twists and turns, and they don't like to do this.

They thought Li Zhao was doing great. Sugar, ice cubes and popsicles were all good ways to make money.

It’s great for making money, and it greatly shortens the development time of Wu Kingdom. This is great!

Why can't I give a reward?

Emperor Wu glanced at Prince Zhao and felt something in his heart. Then he looked at the civil servants and said, "After all, there is a rules for rewards and punishments. What do you think?"

Zuo Pushe immediately said: "Although King You's method of making money is indeed extraordinary and is of great benefit to our military country... But after all, King You has committed a heinous crime. Now it is extremely merciful to not punish him. If he still wants to reward him, then Aren’t you telling the world that you can kill people, but as long as you have merit, killing people can be offset?”

"If this happens, wouldn't the world be in chaos? Such a precedent must not be set."

"I second the proposal!"

The civil servants immediately agreed.

Originally, everyone had a dissatisfaction with King You, and they did not punish him because his things could make money for the country.

As a prince, he thought of the country as soon as he made money. It was precisely because of this that everyone did not join forces to attack.

Otherwise, do you really think that a wealthy family is vegetarian?

"You old men, you are really unreasonable. Wasn't it the Du family who started the trouble first?" General Cheng was the first to quit.

"That's it, you are the one who made the trouble and was taken over by King You. How dare you blame me? I won't listen to your nonsense. How much money can King You make for the Wu Kingdom? Can you?" General Yuchi also stood up and said with a displeased look on his face: "What if? You people can make money for our Wu Kingdom treasury, and we will support you without saying a word, can you?"

"this……"

"Stop this and that. If you can't make money, just shut up, or donate your family's money to fight, okay?"

The faces of the civil servants turned dark.

Although he is said to have learned literary and martial arts, his goods belong to the emperor's family.

But in this era, family comes first.

Everything they do puts family first.

Spending the family's money to support the Wu Kingdom?

is it possible?

If this were the case, the Qian Kingdom, which had lasted for more than a hundred years, would not fall apart.

"I think you should be rewarded!" General Li said.

This person is second only to Prince Zhao, and he is also a military god level figure.

Now that he has spoken, it is basically equivalent to the agreement between the chief and deputy military gods.

There must be an outcome to this matter!

Prince Zhao immediately said: "Unifying the four kingdoms is a century-old plan. Whether our Wu Kingdom can complete the unification after more than a hundred years depends on this time!"

He said extremely seriously: "I believe that no reward is too high!"

The faces of the civil servants were all darkened. This precedent must not be set, but the military's attitude was extremely resolute, and they were in a stalemate.

They all knew that although Li Zhao was wrong to kill the Du family in Hailong County, it was not Li Zhao who started the trouble.

It’s really not appropriate to forcefully label someone.

More importantly, Li Zhaozhen is too important. If he doesn't reward him, it really can't be justified.

But they didn't want Li Zhao to be rewarded like this.

Emperor Wu tapped his fingers lightly on the table, with a faint smile on his lips.
