Li Chen's words made Liu Sichun look a little panicked.
No matter how determined a strong woman she is, she is still a woman in her twenties who has not yet left the government. Faced with Li Chen's suggestive words, she instinctively felt a little panicked.
Liu Sichun said calmly: "Your Highness, the women of the common people are just ordinary people and are not worthy of His Highness the Prince's favor."
The palm of his hand slid from Liu Sichun's chin to her neck, then along the neck to the shoulders, all the way down to the waist. Li Chen's arms used force and pulled Liu Sichun into his arms.
"You are good at business, but do you know what is the most important investment in a woman's life?"
Without waiting for Liu Sichun to answer, Li Chen said: "I am looking for a man who is strong enough."
A hint of stubbornness appeared in Liu Sichun's eyes, and she said: "Women can live a good life without relying on men."
"This is true."
Li Chen said calmly: "Compared to ordinary women, you can indeed live a good life, but I ask you, what can you do next time the court or others come to the Liu family to cause trouble for you?"
"But what will happen if you rely on me?"
Liu Sichun wanted to struggle away from Li Chen's arms, but Li Chen's arms were tightly wrapped around her waist, preventing her from struggling.
Looking at Liu Sichun, who had changed her clothes and looked like a strong business woman before time travel, Li Chen's eyes were full of conquest, and he said: "Besides, you are still too timid. Domestic salt prices must always follow the people's standards.
The price is based on affordability. With the current income of the domestic people, the price of salt cannot rise any more. How much money can you get if you die?"
"As long as you dare, I can even open arms trading. You can open up trade routes to several small countries in Fanbang, and transport domestic ironware, weapons, armor, tea, silk, etc. from official roads to foreign countries, and then transport them from abroad.
Spices, seeds and other specialty products come back again and again, and the profits are huge."
Li Chen's words made Liu Sichun forget about his struggle.
Her eyes widened and she exclaimed: "Seriously?"
Li Chen looked into Liu Sichun's eyes and chuckled: "I see ambition in your eyes."
"Ambition is a good thing. If you don't have ambition, you are no different from an ordinary woman."
Patting his palm on Liu Sichun's upturned buttocks, Li Chen said: "These are things for later. Now, assuming that you have barely passed my test, I will allow you to open a salt transportation route from the coastal area to the Gyeongsang region.
I even allow you to purchase a salt mine in the coastal area. This will not only be a transportation business, but also a production business. Together with the private salt mine of your Liu family, the two mines are enough to test
Your abilities have become shallow."
"As for the silver, five million taels will be transported to the East Palace within three days. I will be of use to you. This is the bottom line and cannot be discussed."
The important place of Liu Sichun's daughter's house was suddenly attacked by Li Chen. Before she could feel ashamed and angry, when she heard Li Chen's words, she was so shocked that she forgot to care about Li Chen's frivolousness towards her.
"The Liu family's private mine..."
Li Chen interrupted Liu Sichun's words and said calmly: "Do you really think that a mere merchant of yours can hide from Dongchang's spy? If it weren't for me, all the Liu family would have been sent to Dongchang's prison long ago."
Pursing her lips, Liu Sichun felt ecstatic inside.
In this way, the matter of the private mine no longer needs to be concealed in every possible way. The prince also granted permission to open a salt mine by himself, which is much better than previously expected.
Although the prince wants to take away five million taels of silver immediately, so what, with the salt mine in hand, he can earn back any amount of silver.
Suppressing the excitement and excitement in her heart, Liu Sichun took a step back, bowed down respectfully, and said: "Daughter of the people, please obey the prince's order."
Li Chen looked at Liu Sichun and said with a smile: "I have brought your Liu family back to life, and also given you a chance to become a famous businessman. Once it is done, I don't need to say how great the benefits will be.
