Chapter 116: Mouthwash in the palace!
At the same time as the chaos in Xuzhou.
A lot of salt drops rapidly, too.
One family rejoices and one sorrows.
The streets of the entire Xudu once again staged a big drama of grabbing salt.
Yu's salt shop is like lifting the bar with Xuzhou salt.
Every time the other party lowers the price, the price will be lowered once.
But it makes Xuzhou salt shop even more depressed.
It has to be, no matter how much they cut the price.
Even if it is five dollars lower than Cao Yu's salt shop.
And no ordinary people came to buy it.
Even if there are a few who have moved the mind to buy.
was immediately pushed down by the eyes of other people around him.
"Look at what, and then see believe it or not, smashed your salt shop."
"I'll tell you, even if you give us this salt for free, we won't ask for it."
"I think if it weren't for the benevolence and righteousness of Prince Cao Yu and the price of salt made so low, would you have sold it at a lower price!"
"Humph! Who dares to be a traitor, my old Li Tou is the first to disagree"
Xudu West Street Entrance.
Lao Wang's salt shop is opposite the door of Yu's salt shop.
But the sight at the gate was very bad.
Although the price of the listed salt of the two is about the same.
But just no one buys it.
I'd rather line up at Cao Yu's salt shop, and no one went.
"Alas! Why are you like this! The price increase of salt in Xuzhou can't be all thanks to me! ”
Sitting at the door and looking at the people rushing to buy salt opposite, the old king was envious.
But where did he think, before he could speak.
I was almost overwhelmed by the bubble stars on the other side.
"If you don't rely on you, don't you still rely on our Cao Yu Gongzi!"
"Old Wangba, let me tell you, I spent the last 50 yuan in this house to beg to buy your salt, and I remember it for the rest of my life."
"Ahh Dog King Ba, the same as that big-eared thief who is hypocritical! ”
"Humph! If it weren't for Cao Yu's son, he would have almost been deceived by that Liu Bei at the beginning. ”
Everyone was bored when they were in line.
It's not just the right time to find a topic to complain about to pass the time.
Immediately it's one sentence per person.
Not even a single voice of opposition.
Even Lao Wang on the other side couldn't help but talk about the big-eared thief.
There is no way who let it a while ago, suddenly Xuzhou banned salt.
directly led to the lack of salt in Xudu, and the common people spent so much silver in vain without being angry.
The most important thing is that when the big-eared thief was still in Xudu, it was a mouthful of folks.
Very affectionate! 、
As a result, he has not escaped for two days.
From a villager to a leek.
Although the common people are simple, it doesn't mean that they are stupid!
……
The news of the crazy robbery of the price reduction of the salt shops on the street also reached the palace.
Liu Xie, who had just gotten up, sat on top of the dragon collapse.
These days, because of Dong Cheng's assassination of Lao Cao a while ago.
Therefore, the early dynasty was also temporarily abandoned.
But this is also a happy leisure, although it feels that it is getting farther and farther away from his dream of recovering the country.
As is customary on weekdays.
When you get up, there will be eunuchs who bring salt tea to rinse your mouth.
"Gollum~"
Liu Xie picked up the tea cup in his hand, and first raised his head to rinse his mouth.
The moment the tea was in its mouth, the expression on his face turned green.
"Ahem, cough, cough~ spit!"
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you~!" The eunuch was immediately frightened and hurriedly supported His Majesty's body, thinking that someone had poisoned the tea.
Although now the emperor is a puppet emperor.
You don't have to pay so much attention to it.
But if this cup of tea was poisonous, it would have poisoned the hands of his little eunuch.
That's definitely dead and lifeless!
"Your Majesty, are you alright? Don't scare the minions! ”
"Ahem, ahem!"
After a while, Liu Xie wiped his lips, stuck out his tongue, and looked at him with some confusion.
"Why is this mouthwash so salty today? Didn't you tell me two days ago that we had no salt, and Liu Bei banned our salt? ”
That's what happened!
After knowing that it was not poisoning, the eunuch breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Harm! The minions are almost scared to death by His Majesty! ”
But this is not to blame Liu Xie, after all, the mouthwash used for a long time is as light as water.
Today's mouthwash is so salty, it is inevitable that it will be a little uncomfortable.
"Your Majesty, there is good news today, there will be no shortage of salt in our palace in the future!"
Isn't there a shortage of salt?
What's going on?
"Could it be that Xuzhou has been taken down by Prime Minister Cao Cheng?" Liu Xie's eyes were startled at first, and then after thinking about it, he only thought about this possibility.
After all, there was no salt before because of the salt ban in Xuzhou.
Now that there is salt, it must also have something to do with Xuzhou.
"Back to Your Majesty, Xuzhou City is still in the hands of that Liu Daer thief for the time being." The eunuch also complained about Liu Bei's ban on salt a few days ago, and accidentally gave the title of the folk to his lips.
But where does Liu Xie still have the heart to care whether the other party is a big-eared thief or Uncle Liu Huang.
He just wanted to know who had solved the salt shortage.
This man must be a great talent.
Whether I can recover Han in the future depends on him.
"Then tell me more! What exactly is it and people so-called! Liu Xie held back the excitement in his heart and hurriedly grabbed the eunuch.
So the eunuch also felt that there was no need to hide this matter from His Majesty.
And it's all over the streets.
Even if it wasn't from his mouth.
It will also be received from other people's mouths.
Don't take this opportunity to sell off.
Maybe Your Majesty will be happy for a while, and give him something to reward him.
In less than five minutes, the eunuch told Cao Yu's incident, and praised Cao Yu as if he had been born into a mortal.
Liu Xie, who could hear the dragon's collapse, didn't blink his eyes at all.
My head was even more blank.
What!
This master is the son of Cao Cao, Cao Yu!!
What!?
Although it has also developed ultra-low-cost salt,
Not only to sell to Xuzhou, but also to Kyushu in the future!
Hiss......
Come to think of this!
Even Liu Xie, who has never dealt with state affairs, can realize it.
How sought-after this salt will be in the future.
How rich will this Yu's salt shop be in the future!
You know, salt was a big tax during the peak Han Dynasty.
Now one of these economic lifelines is directly in Cao Yu's hands.
It's not just white money.
At a critical time, the life and death of other princes were also decided!
"Cao Cao, I'm far inferior to him!!"
