    "How is this possible? Is there really such a magical way to make salt in this world?"

    Sure enough, after listening to Chao Cuo's narration, Liu Qi suddenly felt yearning for it, but he still felt a little dissatisfied.

    "Your Highness, this fine green salt is worth a lot of money. If it's not true, with Dai's country in such poverty, where can he get so much fine green salt?"

    Chao Cuo¡¯s words really make sense. Let alone a mere representative of his country, if there is no such method, even the King of Wu would not be able to come up with so much green salt.

    "Then if salt is made according to his method, wouldn't there be no shortage of salt in the world from now on?"

    ¡°If all this is true, and if this method is generalized, I am afraid that from now on, the court will never be short of salt.

    "Your Highness is right, but I think that now is not the time to promote it. After all, over the years, Wu and Chu have become the most powerful country in the world. If they come up with this method, wouldn't it be even more powerful?"

    Hearing what Chao Cuo said, You Qi suddenly sobered up. Yes, those vassal states have become more and more prosperous in recent years. The court has collected taxes and money, needs to organize armies, organize production, and needs disaster relief when there is a famine.  The Huns are coming and they need to fight.

    But what about those vassal states?

    Although they also have some troops, on the one hand, they do not need to fight for the court. On the other hand, if there is a famine, the court still needs to give them some help, but what about the good years?

    All the tax money they collected went into their own pockets!

    After so many years of ebb and flow, the central court is getting weaker and weaker, but the princely states are getting fatter and fatter, and every one of them has turned into a fucking pig.

    "There is a more important aspect. If this continues, the court will actually have no shortage of salt. Moreover, His Highness will receive a large amount of money every year. Don't you think this is not bad?"

    Chao Cuo looked around and lowered his voice.

    "What you said makes sense, sir, but I am confused"

    This time is not the same as before. The father is getting older and older, but the queen has gradually lost the favor of the father. Recently, there have been rumors that the father intends to change Yin Ji to be the queen.

    For Liu Qi, this is a real disaster. Before all this is settled, he, the prince, is just a pawn to be slaughtered. If he cannot have his own power, I am afraid that the last person to sit on that chair will be  No one knows who it is!

    If you want to have your own power, you need a lot of money. After all, the bustling world is all about profit, and the bustling world is all about profit.

    Especially at this time, if there is not enough benefit, who would take the risk of beheading for himself?

    Although I still bear the reputation of righteousness, God knows how much money this reputation is worth?

    The world has been at peace for decades, and those scholars have been corrupted to the point of corruption.

    Not to mention anything else, the number of nobles and disciples supported by Chang'an City alone is probably tens of thousands.

    Although these people are not above the court, they can influence the positions of those nobles to a great extent.

    If you want to make friends with them, how can you do it if you don¡¯t have enough money?

    "It's just that I only gave him a hundred thousand taels of copper coins, and now he has returned me 600,000 taels of silver. This is already dozens or hundreds of times in return. How can I accept his share"

    Liu Qi is still a sincere gentleman after all, and he really feels a little uncomfortable with this kind of receiving salary for nothing.

    Although he is now so poor that he is almost out of pants, he still has the integrity that he should have.

    "Your Highness, I was originally sad about this matter, but the words of His Highness the King moved me very much!"

    Seeing that Liu Qi was making mistakes again, Chao Cuo quickly persuaded him.

    "Oh? Sir, you might as well come and listen!"

    Liu Qi looked at Chao Cuo seriously and asked.

    "His Royal Highness Dai Wang said, you don't know what he has in his hands, nor what trump cards he has, but you still gave him all your savings without hesitation. This friendship alone is already endless.  Price, you bought shares out of affection, and he will naturally repay the favor with affection. After all, you are his uncle!"

    Chao Cuo said that a trace of tears actually appeared in the corners of his eyes, and Liu Qi was also deeply moved. He and Liu Deng's father, Liu Shen, were brothers and had grown up together since childhood.

    Compared with the remaining princes and kings, Liu Deng is indeed much closer to him.

    "I didn't expect that he was actually a sincere gentleman. My third brother actually gave birth to a good son"

    Liu Qi had a very good impression of Liu Deng for a while. After all, he had received such great benefits from him. Of course Chao Cuo wanted to say a few good words for him.

    "If I can reach the top when he is young, I will naturally not forget his friendship today!"

    After hesitating for a moment, Liu Qi sighed and said involuntarily.

    ¡°Your Highness, the Prince, be careful what you say!¡±

    Chao Cuo looked around and quickly lowered his voice and said.

    When Chao Cuo shouted this, Liu Qi immediately woke up and realized that he had lost his composure.

    It¡¯s really a bit taboo to say this.

    "Your Highness, you just need to keep this friendship in your heart. Speaking of which, there is one little thing that Your Highness would like you to fulfill!"

    Seeing Liu Qi¡¯s emotional look, Chao Cuo hurriedly struck while the iron was hot.

    "He wants to ask me for something? This guy really knows how to choose the right time, what kind of thing? I'm not allowed to do anything!"

    ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????This guy is a sincere gentleman, who would have known that this guy will come to the door with something immediately))) Why do you feel like this guy is such a thief?

    "Actually, it's not a big deal, but King Dai has received news that the Huns may be coming to harass us again. He wants to ask His Highness for someone to help him train an army to resist the Huns!"

    "What do I mean? I just don't know who he is attracted to? If it's a general, I can't decide"

    "After all, there are only a few generals in the imperial court, and this kind of thing is like a carrot and a pit. No matter which pit there is, there are always people in it.

    "I am not a general, but His Highness the King of Dai has fallen in love with Li Guang. I wonder if His Highness can give up his love"

    "Li Guang? Although he is good at shooting, can he resist the Huns?"

    "It's not about whether he can do it or not, it's about the face you need to give to the acting king"

    Chao Cuo reminded him quickly.

    "Sir, you are right, you are right, let Li Guang go, and bring him 500 more soldiers. I can only help him so much"

    Liu Qi hesitated for a moment, and then said.

    "Your Highness is wise, if this is the case, this will be completed. The uncle-nephew relationship between you and the King of Dai, you must keep this contract. According to the current production rate, I am afraid that in another three to five years, the contract will be completed.  You will be as rich as anyone in the country" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
