Crown Prince of the Empire, I quit!

Chapter 188 Another dirty trick!

A few days later, Fang Qingyuan, Wan Shu, and several managers of the Sun family all arrived.

"Your Highness, the Xiao family has withdrawn. Xiao Pingzhang seems to have fallen seriously ill from anger and has not been heard from since."

As soon as he arrived in Gusu City, Fang Qingyuan informed Qin Ming of the news.

Hearing this, Qin Ming raised his eyebrows.

"Have the prices of cloth returned to their former levels?"

"Not yet. Right now it's only 70% of the original price, but after another month or two, it will probably return to its original price."

Fang Qingyuan spoke lightly, then took out the abacus in his hand and calculated something on the table.

He is busy all day long. Although no one knows what he is busy with, Qin Ming is sure that he is always working.

Turning his head, he looked at Wan Shu and said:

"I'm going to have to work hard for you recently."

"This is nothing. The Xiao family is already struggling in both the textile and salt industries. Do you want me to help you..."

Wan Shu only said half of his words.

In fact, Qin Ming’s plan has not been completed yet.

After restricting the Xiao family's salt industry and causing their profits to plummet.

He could then take the cloth from the textile factory and become the dealer, controlling the market in the south of the Yangtze River.

The dealer takes turns, and this year it's my turn.

Qin Ming suddenly had a sense of déjà vu that the young dragon slayer had finally become the evil dragon.

However, when he thought about what the Xiao family did after taking control of this market, Qin Ming suddenly felt that it would be better for him to take control of it himself.

"The Xiao family has recently started to surround and kill our people, and their methods are extremely cruel."

While they were chatting, Sun Miao also put down the letter in his hand and spoke in a low voice.

"Are you going to take action so soon?"

Qin Ming was a little confused.

"Yes, I can see they are a bit anxious. Several of our teams transporting refined salt have been attacked, and a lot of cargo has been lost."

“Can you cover the losses and not lose money?”

Qin Ming frowned slightly. They came here to grab the market.

But costs also need to be controlled.

If you can't even take care of the costs, forget about restricting the Xiao family.

"That's fine. The cost is very low. It's just the transportation cost, and you've basically replaced them with soldiers."

Sun Miao was very relaxed and didn't take this matter to heart.

Hearing this, Qin Ming nodded slowly.

This is when the benefits of having more people come into play.

If I didn't have so many people under my command, it would be a bit troublesome.

Thinking of this, Qin Ming whispered:

"I'll have Old Chang take action later and kill a few of those masters. The Xiao family will definitely be afraid to act rashly."

"Oh? That's a good choice."

At this time, Sun Miao immediately nodded in agreement. Under Qin Ming's surprised gaze, he took out another letter.

"This is my investigation into them. I heard that three top masters attacked us this time."

Since the Xiao family was able to gain a foothold in Jiangnan, they also controlled this area.

There must be many experts on hand.

According to Sun Miao's investigation, there are ten great priests in the Xiao family, all of whom are top masters recruited from the martial arts world.

It is rare for martial artists like them to reach the level of first-class masters.

Those who reach the top level of mastery can even join some martial arts sects or work in local big families.

Basically the treatment is very good.

In addition to these top masters, there are even more powerful masters.

Many of these people have transcended the mundane world, but some are extremely talented and want to accomplish something earth-shaking.

They will seek a wise master, just to leave their names for future generations.

Chang Baishan, who is beside Qin Ming, is such a top master.

"Old Chang."

Qin Ming opened the window and shouted at Chang Baishan, who was playing Pai Gow with someone below and didn't look like a master at all.

Chang Baishan ran up immediately.

"What's wrong, Your Highness?"

"check it out."

Qin Ming pushed the letter in front of Chang Baishan.

"Wow! Song Zhang, the Wind Chasing Kick, Hong Tao, the Mountain-Pulling Palm, Liu She, the Deadly Sword... they're all big shots."

In the past few years, Chang Baishan traveled all over the country and honed himself for a long time.

Looking at these guys who have been famous in the world for a long time, I suddenly felt nostalgic.

"They are attacking the transport convoy. Ordinary soldiers can't handle it. How many can you kill?"

Qin Ming looked at Chang Baishan and began to think about whether he should let Fang Qingyuan go out this time to see if he could help him recruit some top masters from the outside world.

Every time he had something to do, he had to ask Chang Baishan for help. Although Qin Ming would not find it difficult to ask, Chang Baishan could not be used in this way even if he was the donkey of the production team.

Chang Baishan thought for a moment, then suddenly said:

"Your Highness, I can kill all of them. They will be terrified when they see me."

"Oh?"

Qin Ming, Sun Miao and others were a little surprised.

Chang Baishan explained:

"This place is very wealthy. After all, the name of the Jiangnan Water Town is well known to many people. When I first learned some skills, I thought about coming here to do justice and make some extra money."

"While fighting, I encountered them. I beat these people back and forth many times."

His tone was serious, not like he was joking at all.

Sun Miao's expression became serious, and he said hesitantly:

"You mean to say that the Xiao family's priests are afraid of you?"

"That's about right. Even though it's been a while, if I find them again, I should be able to handle it easily."

"Amazing."

Now even Wan Shu looked at him with a strange look in her eyes.

"I was right about you, go ahead."

Qin Ming patted his shoulder, but Chang Baishan looked hesitant.

"Your Highness, if I were to go there at this time, what would you do?"

Over the years, it was because Chang Baishan was by Qin Ming's side that he was able to avoid many fatal disasters.

But if Chang Baishan left, this would still be on someone else's territory, and he was worried that Qin Ming would be surrounded and killed by other top masters.

The Xiao family has someone to protect them, so they can do whatever they want and even think killing people is a trivial matter.

Once Qin Ming was killed by them, the Xiao family would not even be punished too severely under the influence of Concubine Xiao Shufei.

Even in the imperial court, there would probably be many people applauding.

"This is indeed a problem. How about you hide away for a few days, Your Highness?"

Sun Miao looked at Qin Ming hesitantly.

But Qin Ming waved his hand.

"How about this, I'll be the bait and we'll go together to take them down."

"This……"

Chang Baishan and his men were all stunned.

Everyone knew that His Highness was very powerful, but no one expected him to be so powerful.

Those are several top masters.

If he fails, Qin Ming will lose his life.
