    "Master Chao, I would really like to thank you for your hard work again!"

    After returning to the palace, as soon as he entered the door, Liu Deng excitedly walked up to Cao Cao and gave him a hug.

    Chao Cuo was immediately confused. This guy's way of expressing his feelings was a bit special, but due to his status as a prince, he really couldn't say anything else at this moment.

    "We can only let Liu Deng hesitate, but Chao Cuo is also worried. They say that those noble people like men's style. Isn't this kid also interested in me?"

    Liu Deng didn¡¯t know what he was thinking. If he knew what Chao Cuo was thinking now, he would have to kill him with a knife.

    "Your Majesty is really serious. His Highness the Crown Prince knows that you are in a difficult situation here, so he specially ordered me to send 150,000 copper coins and 30,000 stones of refined salt. I hope that I can temporarily help your Majesty to resist for a while. However, for a while,  In the meantime, I¡¯m afraid the prince won¡¯t be able to get you anything more!¡±

    No matter what, a humble gentleman like Chao Cuo is still accustomed to telling the bad side first. Since entering the Dai Kingdom, he has heard some rumors.

    Several princes and kings are making such a fuss that there are even merchants blocking the way, hoping to buy the salt from Chao Cuo at a high price.

    The price offered made Chao Cuo smack his lips, if not for the fact that Liu Qi specially prepared this thing for Liu Deng.

    He even wanted to make the decision directly and sell it. A pound of coarse salt was sold at a price that was consistent with money. This was unimaginable in Chang'an City.

    However, it can also be seen from this that the competition between Liu Deng and several princes and kings has reached a fever pitch. Both sides have spent money on several princes and kings. This clearly means that they want to use their capital to hurt others.

    Let alone the seven of them put together, even if it were any one of them, Liu Deng would not be able to compete with his family wealth alone.

    Even Chao Cuo is not optimistic about Liu Deng now. Although he hopes Liu Deng can win from the bottom of his heart, the further he comes to Jinyang, the less sure he feels.

    "Master Chao, what do you mean?"

    Liu Deng was stunned. He originally thought that Chao Cuo came here with His Highness the Prince to collect some money, but now that he heard it, it seemed that the money was given to him for free and he did not have to pay it back at all.

    "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said that you are fighting with those princes and kings. Although he, as an uncle, does not have much ability, he still has to help you to some extent. These things are supported by His Highness the Crown Prince. Even if the prince  Even if the loss is over, you don¡¯t need to pay it back afterwards!¡±

    Chao Cuo said very seriously.

    Liu Deng and Zhang Tu looked at each other. This really surprised Liu Deng. If he still plotted against others at this time, would he still be a human being?

    "Master Chao, let's do this. Please go and hand over the supplies to Master Taifu now. Calculate the price of the salt you brought and the copper coins. This money can be regarded as His Highness the Crown Prince's investment in my place.  Yes, at the end of this year, dividends will be sent to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince¡¯s house!¡±

    Liu Deng took a deep breath and said seriously.

    The ancients often said that if someone gives you a papaya, you will repay him with a qiongju. Since others have sent you friendship, no matter what, Liu Deng also wants to repay him with friendship!

    Money can never be earned, especially in a business like selling salt. According to the current speed of making salt, even if the court mints money around the clock, it will not be as fast as making money yourself.

    Although it seems that these seven princes and kings are in a fierce quarrel now, as long as Liu Deng counterattacks here, they will all have to sell their goods immediately.

    The reason why Liu Deng has been delaying until now is that the profiteers who are colluding with them are jumping out.

    Originally, according to Liu Deng's intention, he wanted them to eat all the coarse salt, and then directly drive down the price of all salt, so that they could swallow all the bitter fruits alive, and let the profiteers who were hoarding money lose their money one by one.  No return.

    But now, because the Huns are coming, Liu Deng doesn¡¯t have so much time to waste with them here. Although there should still be a lot of coarse salt among the people, at this time, it is enough for those merchants who are hoarding it.  There is no recovery.

    "My lord, you must not give up on yourself! Although they are coming fiercely now, you are the acting king after all! You must not be soft when it is time to take action. I heard that warehouses have begun to sell salt in the city. If you take action  How can you negotiate with them when the last bit of salt is gone?"

    When Chao Cuo heard what Liu Deng said, he hurried up to stop him.

      "Don't worry, Mr. Chao, they are just local chickens and dogs. They are vulnerable. You and Mr. Taifu can go there. After all the supplies are delivered and all the salt is sold, it will be their death!"  "

    Liu Deng said confidently.

    Chao Cuo was taken aback for a moment. Now that he has arrived in such a situation, what on earth does His Highness the King want to do?

    Is it really what he thinks? Is he planning to use force to take down all the profiteers?

    "There are seven princes and kings behind those people. If they really sold all these things and then copied them back, things would be completely different.

    "Master Chao, please don't worry, my king knows what he's told, we just have to obey orders and act accordingly!"

    Zhang Tu looked cheerful. He had just returned from the salt pond, so of course he was confident.

    According to the current rate of salt production, as long as Liu Deng is willing, he can use a massive amount of green salt to kill all those profiteers.

    "Master Taifu, why are you following the King Dai's nonsense? This food appearance must not be too ugly. Otherwise, what will happen to the country in the future? After all, even the imperial court needs to purchase salt from several vassal states.  If it really gets too serious, what will you do in the future?"

    Chao Cuo is a humble gentleman after all, and he is still worried about Liu Deng at this time.

    "Master Chao, don't worry, my king has a lot of beauty in his chest, and he has already secured the victory at this time!"

    Zhang Tu laughed loudly, patted Chao Cuo on the shoulder and said.

    "How do you say this, Master Taifu? Please give me some advice, Master Taifu!"

    Chao Cuo immediately realized that this old guy and Liu Deng must be plotting something. Otherwise, how could he be so relaxed and at ease!

    "Don't say it, don't say it. The matter will soon come to an end. Please wait a few days, Mr. Chao. When all the salt in our hands is sold out, the matter will come to an end!"

    Zhang Tu said mysteriously.

    "Oh? Master Taifu is so confident? It seems that His Highness the King has already planned this time!"

    Chao Cuo said thoughtfully.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
