"You're welcome, Second Prince. The cuckoo declined.

The second prince and the quail looked at the brocade-robed young man thoughtfully.

This quail brother is actually Chen Hao.

After learning from Wan Yihou that there might be a drastic change in Plains City, he wanted to come to Plains City to see it for himself.

Of course, he didn't expect to come once and just happen to fish in troubled waters.

Now it's time to prepare, Chen Hao has also made preparations, it's time to understand the opponent's situation. Even if there is no news of Wan Yihou, Chen Hao will find a way to go to Pingyuan City in the near future.

He followed Wan Yihou's "cuckoo" who was in charge of smuggling operations in order to save more trouble along the way. Because of the long-term smuggling operation, this road has already been opened, and the checkpoint blockage is not a problem.

Chen Hao originally planned to go outside the Plains City, so he used his magical powers to sneak in. He found a professional to carry out the disguise, and there was a Taiyi concealment technique to conceal his cultivation, and when he arrived in Plains City, he cooperated with rich financial resources and stealth techniques in the city, and he could deal with any situation he encountered.

But unexpectedly, this "second prince", for the "throne" that is about to be vacated, is already very anxious, and even made an exception to invite Du Juan to the city to talk, which made Chen Hao save a stealth.

So it's not that Chen Hao knew that the second prince would do this from the beginning, so he came over on purpose. It can only be said that it is at this juncture, and it is easy to encounter this situation.

Although everyone knows that the one who has been trading with Wan Yihou for a long time is Cao Cheng, the second child of the Cao family, they didn't expect Du Juan to say it directly without hesitation!

Cao Zheng, the head of the contemporary Cao family, calls himself the "King of the Plains", and his sons can also be called "princes". However, Chen Hao always felt that it was ironic to be called the king and the emperor in this small place.

Cao Cheng's expression remained unchanged, and it seemed that he was accustomed to the title of "Second Prince". He didn't blame Du Juan for directly calling out his identity, but just smiled at the two of them: "Mr. Du Juan, you are guests from afar, and I should treat you well." And it's the middle of the night, so it's also excellent to have some late-night supper. ”

Without waiting for the cuckoo to excuse himself, the person Cao Cheng called had already come, and he ordered: "Go and bring the wine and food prepared in the kitchen." ”

When the wine and food were served, Cao Cheng said to the wild cat and the donkey who had been standing beside him: "You guys also come and eat together." ”

The two of them said "don't dare", Cao Cheng said: "I tell you to sit down and eat, just sit down and eat, don't be particular about me!"

Only then did the two confess their sins and sit down at the bottom.

"I've been working with my husband for so long, and this is the first time I've sat down and had a drink together. And the two of you, you have also worked hard for me to saddle up and back the horse, this glass of wine, I salute everyone!" Cao Cheng raised his wine glass and drank it all, looking extremely bold.

Chen Hao saw that the wild cat and the donkey heard this, and he was extremely moved, and he didn't know if he was pretending to be in face, or if he was really moved by the master's words.

Everyone drank together, and after Cao Cheng waited for everyone to eat for a while, he said: "Presumably Lao Mao and Lao Lu have already told Mr., and you all know my situation, now I urgently need support, I don't know what Mr. Du Juan thinks?"

"I can't do this, I have to ask the master. Cuckoo said.

He glanced at Chen Hao, then turned around and said, "But Brother Quail has won the trust of the master, His Royal Highness the Second Prince, you can tell him what support you need, we can have a plan first." ”

Cao Cheng took a closer look at Chen Hao and said, "It turns out that this is Brother Quail, rude, I always thought you were Mr. Cuckoo's entourage." ”

Chen Hao smiled faintly, and only said: "The second prince is humble and has a free and easy temperament, how can I be more accountable? I also like to speak directly, so you can talk directly." ”

Cao Cheng's performance is simply without a city, whether he needs support or wins the hearts of his subordinates, everything is so simple and direct.

If this is a fake, it is a little too scary. If he is really like this, then Chen Hao is not optimistic about his victory in the battle for the throne at all.

"I won't go into detail with the two of you about the specific situation. Everything is going well with my plan now, but the only constraint is salt, and I need a lot of salt to implement my plan!" Cao Cheng said to Chen Hao.

Chen Hao and Du Juan, speaking of which, have a hostile relationship with Plains City, and the only thing they can help with seems to be table salt. So Cao Cheng didn't tell them what his plan was, only his own needs.

In the Plains City, salt was also the hard currency in circulation. Cao Cheng wants a lot of salt, which is nothing more than wanting to buy key personnel, and intends to rely on the support of a large number of people to get to the top.

Although Chen Hao is not optimistic about him, when it comes to salt, he really has no shortage of salt.

This second prince doesn't seem to be very good, if he is given some salt, he can increase his strength and muddy the water of Plains City, even if he can't get the throne in the end, Chen Hao is happy to see.

"How much salt does Your Highness need?and, what benefits can we get?" Chen Hao deliberately hung Cao Cheng's appetite.

If you agree without asking whether it is red or white, it will make people suspicious. Although Cao Cheng seems to be simple-minded, the donkey is very shrewd!

"The more the merrier! At least 10,000 catties, I'm a little sure. As for your good, I can promise to make an alliance with you, and as long as I reign, I will never attack the Valley of Watch. Cao Cheng swore an oath.

Chen Hao shook his head and said, "If you and Shouwang Valley can really form an alliance, our business won't be able to make so much salt." As for whether you attack the Overwatch Valley or not, it has little to do with us. We're just buying and selling people, and it's not our turn to worry about war. ”

"That'...... What do you want?" Cao Cheng thought about it, as if it were indeed the case. The benefits he gave were really useless to Wan Yihou, who made a fortune by smuggling.

But for a while, Cao Cheng couldn't think of what he could do in exchange for Wan Yihou's support, and couldn't help but look at Chen Hao with a little worry.

"Hehe, the second prince doesn't have to be so outside. We can support you, and I think my boss will agree to this. For the time being, all we need is His Highness's friendship. After His Highness's work is completed, I believe that our benefits will not be lost. Chen Hao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay! After I succeed, I will only allow you to trade with us exclusively! Brother Quail is also a cheerful person, come, let's have a drink!" the second prince slapped the table and said proudly.

In fact, only Wan Yihou's family is doing business with Pingyuan City now. However, Chen Hao did not break the worthlessness of the second prince's promise, raised his glass and said: "And this salt, we can't give you 10,000 catties." But if it's 3,000 catties, I can take it to His Highness now. Here, cheers. ”

In fact, Chen Hao only brought more than 3,000 catties of salt with him. Of course, even if you bring 10,000 catties, you can't give it to Cao Cheng so easily, you have to give it slowly, depending on the situation.

"This ...... Well, a toast to friendship!"

"Cheers!"
