Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Although they are both the future leaders of the family, Cao Chen and Sun Miao have somewhat different temperaments.

This guy looks very decent and gives off an aura that keeps strangers away.

I don’t know what happened in the private room, but Qin Ming keenly noticed that these beautiful women seemed to keep a distance from Cao Chen.

Few dared to come up and laugh and make noise with him.

In comparison, Sun Miao is very free and easy.

He opened his folding fan with a swish and waved it in a very showy manner, calling over several young girls.

It seems that even among the heirs of a big family, there are huge differences in temperament.

Li Youcai chuckled and called over a few young girls.

"Your Highness, please take a seat first."

Pointing to the main seat, Li Youcai walked forward and helped Qin Ming pull out the stool.

Next is Sun Miao, who comes in second.

Qin Ming noticed that Cao Chen was also arranged to the second position by Li Youcai.

As for himself, he sat in the lower seat with a smile on his face.

Qin Ming nodded slightly. There were several reasons why this kid was doing well.

Although many people ignore these etiquettes, it is always better to do them than not to do them.

"Master Cao, let me introduce you to His Royal Highness the King of Qin, who is famous in Lingnan and repelled the Nanman."

"This is Young Master Sun from the Sun family. You two should know him."

Cao Chen nodded slowly with a stern look on his face, clasped his fists towards Qin Ming and said:

"I've heard of your highness's great name for a long time. Seeing him today, I can see that he is indeed extraordinary."

"Mr. Cao is also a handsome man. Nice to meet you."

After the two of them had praised each other's business, to Qin Ming's surprise, Cao Chen actually took the initiative to start a conversation and talked about refined salt.

"Your Highness, as far as I know, you came to Jiangnan these days with a large amount of refined salt."

"It's true."

Qin Ming nodded.

"But you should know that Jiangnan is not your territory. Although these refined salts are good, it is not appropriate to sell them here."

"Yes, you are right."

Qin Ming smiled and continued to nod.

Cao Chen was stunned for a moment, not realizing what was going on with Qin Ming.

Although he knew it was inappropriate, he acted as if he knew it was wrong but refused to change.

"Your Highness, please stop."

"No, Jiangnan Salt Industry, this king wants it."

Qin Ming flatly rejected his request.

The atmosphere at the scene suddenly reached freezing point.

Li Youcai looked at the two men's expressions without daring to breathe.

I was afraid that they would start a quarrel here if they had a disagreement, and it would be bad if innocent people were affected.

However, Qin Ming did not give Cao Chen a chance to get angry and continued:

"If the Cao family is willing to unite, I can send a batch of things to the Cao family tomorrow."

"This batch of refined salt is good stuff. With it, the Cao family can occupy more market share faster and no longer have to look at the Xiao family's face."

"how?"

Qin Ming simply stated his request.

Cao Chen frowned, not understanding Qin Ming's behavior.

He actually dared to poach the Xiao family, and the one who was poached was himself.

"Your Highness, I'm sorry I can't obey your command."

Cao Chen shook his head and was unwilling to let his family take part in the adventure.

"Cao Chen, if you don't agree, I'm afraid the Cao family will be the next to be eliminated."

Seeing that the other party was unwilling to nod, Sun Miao next to him slowly spoke and took the initiative to remind him.

"Sun Miao, just because the Sun family is powerful doesn't mean they can reach out to the Cao family. This is Jiangnan, not Lingnan."

Cao Chen was a little angry. Facing the threats from the other party, he didn't understand why these two people would be so impulsive as to come to Jiangnan to commit fraud.

There are so many powerful forces in Jiangnan. Even if the two of them talk until their lips are worn out, it is impossible for anyone to stand on their side.

"You don't believe it, do you?"

Sun Miao glanced at him and pointed at Qin Ming.

"Your Highness has the power to make your store unable to sell anything within three days. Would you like to try?"

Cao Chen was silent.

He knew what Qin Ming relied on.

It's that magical refined salt.

In fact, some refined salt can be made using the technology of this era.

But it was useless because the refined salt they made was very expensive, dozens of times more expensive than coarse salt.

If no one can afford it, it naturally cannot be put on the market.

But Qin Ming is different. He only paid three cents more, but it seems he made a lot of money.

"Can't we discuss it?"

Cao Chen finally spoke, staring at Qin Ming closely.

I want to see some other emotions on Qin Ming's face.

Unfortunately, Qin Ming's expression was as calm as water, without any fluctuations at all.

"The Xiao family almost destroyed all the cloth shops in Lingnan and Jiangnan. There's no way to discuss this matter."

Qin Ming's tone was unquestionable.

Cao Chen finally understood everything.

This is Qin Ming's revenge on the Xiao family.

Whether it is Li Youcai or the Cao family, they are actually chess pieces on the chessboard.

But Li Youcai was different from him. He was willing to take the benefits and be driven by Qin Ming.

As a big local family, the Cao family is unwilling and unable to bow their heads.

Once they follow Qin Ming, they will become a laughing stock among all the major forces in Jiangnan after the news gets out.

Sun Miao saw what he was thinking and said with a smile:

"How about this, in three days, I'll show you the results."

"Don't think the Cao family is so special. Everyone else is the same. I remember that besides you, there is also a Lu family in this area, right?"

Cao Chen's whole body trembled, and his voice rose several degrees.

"You...are going to take action against the Lu family?"

With the strength of one person, he suppressed the major families in many ways.

Is this King of Qin crazy?

"Don't panic, it will be pretty quick. In three days, if the Lu family is defeated, you can come over earlier and cooperate with us."

"If the Lu family can still hold on after three days, it's up to you."

Sun Miao stood by and made guarantees for Qin Ming, even giving him a vague possibility.

"Your Highness, is he serious about what he said?"

Cao Chen quickly looked at Qin Ming.

Qin Ming nodded calmly and said:

"He said exactly what the king meant."

"Okay, give me three days to see your strength."

Cao Chen sighed lightly and agreed to the bet in a deep voice.

Qin Ming has actually given him enough face.

It seems that he was given some options.

But if it really takes three days, we can deal with the Lu family's salt shops.

It will also take three days to deal with the Cao family!

Then they don't need to resist, it's useless anyway.

"Drink."

Qin Ming raised his glass, and Cao Chen also raised his glass with mixed feelings, and the three of them drank it all in one gulp.

The next morning, some street stalls appeared in front of the Lu family's salt shop.

Qin Ming's soldiers shouted loudly and began to sell high-quality and low-priced refined salt.

As the reputation of refined salt spread throughout Gusu City, many people already knew about it.

Suddenly, many people gave up on Lu’s Salt Shop and started shopping on the street.

Qin Ming's approach was simple and violent. He blocked the door and robbed the Lu family of their business, catching them off guard and leaving them without any power to resist!
