Chapter 139: The Poison Master Chen Ping Sets Out Again
"Lao Liu, you said this is salt?"

"Don't fool me!"

Fusu looked at the pile of sacks in front of him and shouted in surprise.

Even some of Ying Yuan's favorite catchphrases were shouted out.

Ying Yuan was shaking with joy when he saw Fusu like this.

"Hahaha, brother, you'll know if you try it!"

"Why did I call everyone together to play such a joke!"

"Come on, try them all!"

Fusu and Xiao He and others beside him did not hesitate when they heard it. They just picked up a little and put it into their mouths.

Then, he was completely shocked.

"Is this what Xiahou Ying and the others gave birth to during this period?"

"This quality and purity is probably better than what my brothers and I have eaten since we were young in the palace, right?"

"Anyway, the salt in the food I eat still tastes a bit bitter!"

Fusu's comments were very realistic, and Xiao He, who was standing by, thought about it for a moment and said with his eyes brightened.

"Indeed, it doesn't have the bitterness of the usual coarse salt, and the grains are distinct and white as snow. It looks several times better!"

Xiao He can be said to be the one who knows the market situation best among them.

After all, when he was the chief clerk in Pei County, he had been to markets many times and had come into contact with all the major goods on the market.

It was precisely because he had learned about it in detail that he understood more clearly how big the difference was between the mainstream coarse salt on the market and the salt made by Gongzi Yuan.

To put it bluntly, they are not the same thing!
"Sir, if we sell this salt, will it be enough money for us to build the academy?"

Xiang Licheng, who was suddenly called to Ying Yuan's house today, was a little dazed just now.

But now that I have tasted the salt and realized how premium it is, I can no longer hold it back.

After all, because the expenses are so staggering, Daqin Institute of Technology and Daqin Royal College are actually waiting for the rice to cook.

Now that he sees that the rice is about to be obtained, how can he not be anxious?
As a great figure of the Mohist school, this determines whether he can be remembered forever.

Ying Yuan did not hide it from him, and smiled slightly and said, "Master, you are not wrong!"

"This is a source of income that I specially prepared for many future affairs!"

"And I invited you all here today because I want to discuss something with you."

"How should we sell this salt?"

When these words came out, everyone looked at each other in surprise.

This is a problem?

Selling salt, especially the kind of salt that is never hard to sell, doesn’t it just require finding a shop or selling it directly in the market?
Are you worried that this thing won’t sell?

In the eyes of everyone, the most they did was to cover up a few things and not let the people know that the prince regent of the Qin Dynasty was behind this.

Besides that, what else could go wrong?
Ying Yuan looked at everyone's confused expressions and simply made things clear.

"Well, it's not like we can't just sell it!"

"This is not only a profitable business, but also a good thing that benefits the country and the people. There is actually no need to cover it up!"

"But, I always feel that the group behind Feng Jie hasn't been making enough noise lately!"

"So, I want to help them!"

After this was said, everyone looked strange.

Gongzi Yuan, do you still remember this?

You know, according to the plan of Chen Ping and Gongzi Yuan.

He wanted to use the cost of papermaking and the matter of Ying Yuan’s army and Wang’s family’s land to give the other party a reason to attack him.

Then, when the academy officially opened, the two sides had completely fallen out and they simply wiped out the other side.

In the eyes of everyone, this plan was actually cruel enough.

But now, after hearing what Gongzi Yuan said, he still felt it was not enough? Xiao He, as the first person in charge of government affairs in the court of the real "Gongzi Yuan faction", hesitated for a moment and asked first.

"Sir, are you still planning to use this salt to cause trouble for them?"

When Ying Yuan heard Xiao He's question, he nodded slightly at Xiao He with a look of satisfaction on his face.

Obviously, it is very good that Xiao He can see his thoughts first.

He is indeed the number one tool who can help me relieve work pressure!
Seeing Xiao He win the first prize, Cao Shen's heart moved, and then he said calmly.

"Sir, how about we quietly sell them in the market and then pass the news on, is that ok?"

As soon as Cao Shen said this, everyone else looked at him with strange eyes.

Not that it's a bad idea.

But if we really want to do this, it seems that you, Cao Shen, are the most suitable person to pass the message secretly.

You dug a hole for yourself?
"Chen Ping, what do you think?"

Ying Yuan did not comment on the trap that Cao Shen had dug for him, but he did not say no either. Instead, he looked at Chen Ping.

After all, when it comes to giving advice to harm others, only a professional poison master can do it.

People like Cao Shen may be able to handle state affairs and political affairs, but he is not skilled enough in cheating and plotting against people.

When Chen Ping heard Ying Yuan's question, he did not answer directly. Instead, he asked a question with an expressionless face.

"Sir, I just heard General Xiahou say that you sent ten carts of salt to the military camp?"

Ying Yuan was stunned when he heard this, but he didn't deny it.

"This is true!"

"After all, our Great Qin was founded on military power, so it was OK that we didn't have this condition in the past."

"Now that I have this means, I certainly cannot let those soldiers who have shed sweat and blood for the country suffer any loss!"

Ying Yuan said this as a matter of course.

Because he really thought so.

Ying Yuan himself had a good impression of the army, especially a powerful army like the Qin Dynasty that had strict discipline and swept across the world.

He looked so kind.

At the same time, as a time traveler whose knowledge structure and insights are completely different from others, Ying Yuan actually knows the importance of salt to the military better than others.

As soldiers undergo rigorous training and arduous drills, their need for salt is greater than that of ordinary people.

Therefore, sending this salt was just the right thing to do.

Of course, these things were all planned in Ying Yuan’s mind, and he never told anyone about them.

Anyway, if other people asked, he would just use the excuse he just gave.

As the Prince Regent of the Qin State, since he has the ability, is there anything wrong with him taking care of the Qin soldiers?
After hearing what Ying Yuan said, Chen Ping, who had originally had a blank expression on his face, suddenly raised the corners of his mouth and revealed a hint of a smile.

"In that case, Chen Ping actually has a plan!"

"However, if we really follow the plan, it will not only alarm the nobles!"

"I'm afraid you will have to face His Majesty directly by then!"

As soon as these words were spoken, before Ying Yuan could say anything, Xiao He spoke first.

"If that's the case, then there's no need!"

"You are now responsible for the supervision of the state. If you bring this to the attention of His Majesty, wouldn't that be a violation of His Majesty's trust?"

Xiao He's words were very obscure, but everyone present understood what he meant.

No matter what scheme it is, it cannot affect Gongzi Yuan's succession to the throne.

That’s the real big deal!

But Ying Yuan raised his eyebrows and said to Chen Ping: "Continue!"

"I want to hear it!"
