    While the two were talking, they heard footsteps outside, and then several guards walked in with wild laughter.

    "A total of 2,200 copper coins were sent back to the king, and they have all been shipped back!"

    None of the guards thought that this matter would go so smoothly.

    "This incident can be regarded as a lesson to the profiteer. What does this little copper coin mean? Take half of it and divide it equally between you. The rest can buy some patent medicines and scatter them outside the city!"

    "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"

    Liu Deng's guards were all overjoyed and gave half of the two thousand two hundred copper coins. On average, each of them could get eighty or ninety coins.

    For them, this is a huge sum of money, enough for them to make a lot of purchases in Suiyang City.

    Although it is now the reign of Emperor Wen, history books say that during the reign of Wen and Jing, the food in the treasury was rotten and inedible. However, for the poor people, it is still common for them to lack medical treatment and medicine.

    Because it is not uncommon for an ordinary cold to kill someone, therefore, when there is a happy event at home, rich and wealthy families will always spread some patent medicines, which can be regarded as doing good deeds for their families.

    Since Liu Deng has opened a workshop near Liangguo, the preliminary preparations can be started.

    ¡°It¡¯s just that Liu Deng doesn¡¯t have a suitable candidate for the moment.

    After careful calculation, he actually only has a few available people at hand, and he is still short of people

    "Your Majesty, Master Chen is here and is asking for an audience outside the door!"

    Just when Liu Deng had a headache, Du Ziteng walked in quietly and said.

    "Let him in!"

    Tomorrow is King Liang¡¯s birthday party, and I don¡¯t know what Chen Qi is doing coming to see me at this time. Could it be that there are some new changes?

    "Your Majesty, Liu Yishui, the second son of King Wu, has just arrived in Suiyang and just moved into Liangyuan!"

    Chen Qi lowered his voice and said in Liu Deng¡¯s ear.

    "Liu Yishui? Is there anything special about this person?"

    Liu Deng asked curiously.

    "Back to your Majesty, this man is the second son of Wu, but he has been reading poetry and books since he was a child. He is completely different from his elder brother. Even His Majesty once praised him and said that it was a pity that he was born too late  One of my friends in the world has just received news that someone is going to kill him in Suiyang City!"

    "Is the news reliable? Don't talk nonsense about this kind of thing. After all, he is a relative of the emperor!"

    Hearing what Chen Qi said, Liu Deng was shocked. No matter what, he was the son of King Wu. To kill him in Suiyang City, what is the difference between that and rebellion?

    "The news is absolutely reliable, and you know the person who paid for the murder!"

    "I know?"

    Liu Deng was even more confused. How come this old boy has learned to sell things now? He is getting worse and worse as he learns. He doesn¡¯t know who he learned this bad habit from.

    "According to my friend, the person who paid for the murder seems to be his eldest brother Liu Xian!"

    When he said this, Liu Deng sat up suddenly.

    Taizu of later generations once said that the enemy of his enemy is his friend. If this person really can't deal with Liu Xian, then it seems that he can really help him.

    It¡¯s just that this person has no reputation in the history books of later generations, and Liu Deng doesn¡¯t know what his final outcome will be. Is it possible that this guy really wants to die in Suiyang City?

    This is really the time when books are used. There are not many documents in later generations. Even the prince of Wu, Liu Xian, only wrote a few.

    Not to mention the son of a concubine, King Wu Liu Bi is also in charge. What kind of woman does he want in his capacity?

    With more women, there will naturally be more sons. There are already more than a dozen named ones now.

    ¡°However, since this boy can be praised by the emperor, he obviously has some merits. Liu Deng is really somewhat curious about him.

    However, their identities are a bit awkward. The relationship between Liu Deng and Wu Guo is now on the same level. It would be really inappropriate for the two of them to meet at this time.

    "Is he here also to congratulate King Liang on his birthday?"

    Liu Deng asked with a headache as he held his temple with one hand.

    "This should be just one of the purposes. It is said that this time the Liang King celebrated his birthday,The giant of the Mohist family, Mo Ji, will also be present to congratulate him. It seems that they want to recruit this giant of the Mohist family!  "

    "A giant from the Mohist family?"

    Liu Deng's eyes lit up, yes, it is still a situation where a hundred schools of thought are contending. Among these hundreds of schools, which one's theory is closest to modern science, it must be the Mohist school.

    If I have their help, no matter what I plan to do in the future, wouldn¡¯t it be even more powerful?

    "But it's strange. As a Mohist giant, he personally came to Suiyang to congratulate King Liang. Why didn't King Liang recruit him?"

    "Your Majesty, are you curious as to why His Highness Prince Liang didn't recruit this Mohist giant?"

    Chen Qi immediately saw Liu Deng¡¯s doubts.

    "Master Chen is the one who knows me!"

    "Your Majesty, thank you for the award. In fact, this matter is very simple, because both your Majesty and the Queen are fond of Taoism! So if His Majesty, Prince Liang, recruits these Mohist people, His Majesty will be unhappy"

    After talking for a long time, it turned out to be because of this, but Liu Deng suddenly felt happy. If King Liang didn't recruit them, wouldn't it be convenient for him?  If the princes of one's side recruit them personally, it should be considered as giving them enough face!

    "Your Majesty, if you recruit them, I'm afraid His Majesty will not be happy"

    Chen Qi also immediately saw the plan of his king. Although Mohist theory was considered a prominent school during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, it began to decline after the Qin Dynasty.

    After the founding of the Han Dynasty, emperors of all dynasties advocated rule by inaction, and they were even less happy with the Mohist approach.

    As the saying goes, if the superiors do something good, the subordinates will follow suit. Therefore, even the major vassal states have begun to advocate the Taoist rule of inaction. If a doctrine loses the support of those in power, it is only a matter of time before it declines.

    Nearly a hundred years have passed since the founding of the Han Dynasty, and Mohist theory has now declined from a prominent school to a third-rate school, but even so, they still have their own persistence.

    The Mo family naturally has the pride of the Mo family, and would rather die of old age than come out to be a foil for others.

    Therefore, although the kings of Wu and Chu once extended an olive branch to them, because their conditions were too harsh, until now, the contemporary giants have still refused to come out.

    "As long as the country is prosperous and the people are strong, Your Majesty will not care about such trivial matters. You can rest assured. By the way, is Master Moji here now? I want to pay him a visit!"

    Liu Deng is a person who always only pays attention to reality, and he doesn¡¯t care about those frivolous things.

    "ThisI'm afraid this is a bit difficult. This master's whereabouts have always been elusive. He should have arrived in Suiyang City, but I don't know where he is now" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
