Du He took a deep breath. He didn't understand. They were all born by the same mother. Why is the difference between the elder brother and him so big? Why is Du Gou's brain like rust, and he doesn't know how to adapt at all.

With such a strange idea, Du He casually found a chair to sit down and thought for a moment: "Brother, let me tell you this. Do you think if you don't lower the price, you can really sell all your salt?"

"Why can't it?" Du Gou asked.

"Everyone has the same price. Do you think those salt merchants will come to you thousands of miles away to purchase goods? The travel fee is not expensive? Or the shipping fee is not expensive? If you don't give up this profit, do you think that with just your words, those salt merchants will leave their old relationships aside and run to you to buy those sea salt that you don't know what's famous?"

Du He's words did not leave any kindness to his elder brother Du Gou. From his original heart, he actually had some ideas about Du Gou.

Just imagine, from salt making to sales, everything in between is planned by Li Chengqian, and Du Gou is at best an executor. As an executor, what power does he have to question the maker of all plans?

"But these salts were made according to the wishes of His Highness King Qin. Shouldn't His Highness King Qin find a way?" Du Gou's scholar's temper was offended again and said to Du He with confidence.

"Brother, you are saying this freshly. If you make money by selling salt, you will give Gao Ming a penny? Why should Gao Ming help you unconditionally?"

Faced with Du He's question, Du Gou didn't know how to answer for a moment. He wanted to say that Li Chengqian was the prince of the Tang Dynasty and it was natural to do these things.

But soon he realized that the Tang Dynasty had an extremely vast coastline, and it was not the only one of Dengzhou Prefectures that leaned against the sea. Li Chengqian seemed to have no need to do this method of salt drying in Dengzhou.

Seeing that his elder brother stopped talking, Du He also knew that Du Gou should have awakened. After a moment, he spoke again: "Brother, you should be more open-minded. In fact, the price of 70% is no less. Compared with other salt ponds in Datang, there is no effort to dry salt in Dengzhou. You have already made a profit by selling these salts at a normal price of 70%.

"And you have to know that the reason why His Highness Qin King came up with this set of salt drying methods has other purposes. You can't ruin His Highness's entire plan because of your own personal gain. So when it's time to take action, take action. In a few days, the big salt merchants will come. You have to seize the opportunity to deal with all the salt."

Du Gou also understood this a little. He took a deep breath and sat on the chair behind the desk with some depression. He sighed and said, "What do you mean is Your Highness to grab the domestic salt mine business? Use sea salt to replace all the edible salt of the Tang Dynasty. I'm right?"

"It's not far even if it's not right!" Du He sighed, looking at Du Gou with a little depressed will, and said: "Gao Ming's main purpose is to attack those aristocratic families. If you can win those big salt merchants to our side, the aristocratic families living by the salt pond will immediately suffer huge economic losses."

"Yes, it turns out that His Highness the King of Qin is actually secretly plotting against those aristocratic families. I have been kept in the dark all the time. I thought that what I did in Dengzhou over the years was effective! It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous!" Du Gou said with a bitter smile after understanding what Du He said.

Du He heard disappointment and sadness from Du Gou's laughter, thinking that his words just now might be too direct, and quickly explained: "Brother, how can you say that? You don't know what you have done in Dengzhou for so many years. Do we still don't know? My father asked me to learn from you many times. He is very satisfied with what you did in Dengzhou!"

"What's the use!" Du Gou said with his head down.

"Why is it useless? Although I haven't been to Dengzhou, I know that Dengzhou was definitely not like this before. But now if you look at it, Dengzhou can almost be regarded as one of the top prefectures in the country except for the Jingji area. These are all because of your contribution. If it weren't for everything you did in Dengzhou over the years, how could Dengzhou be like this now?"

God is pitiful to see that Du He was originally here to pretend, but he pretended a little too much, which made Du Gou feel much more depressed. If he really couldn't think about it... Du He thought that he would have to be skinned by the old man when he went back.

But Du Gou didn't seem to appreciate his affection. He looked up at him with a heavy expression: "Okay, you kid don't need to comfort me. I know what I have done in Dengzhou in the past few years!"

"Brother, have you figured it out?"

"I don't understand anything. Since Your Highness Qin has already made arrangements for this matter and sent you here, I won't participate in this matter. Just do everything according to Your Highness's wishes."

Du He never thought that Du Gou's transformation would be so fast. Why did he become so easy to talk like a stubborn donkey just now? Was he really stimulated by himself just now? Has he changed his mind a fundamental change?

At this moment, Du Gou sighed and spoke again: "Second brother, you are my brother. In fact, even if you don't say anything, I know what to do. His Highness the King of Qin actually told you nothing is important. What matters is that he sent you here, which is enough."

After hearing the elder brother's words, Du He became even more confused and blinked again and again. He knew the meaning of every word Du Gou said, but why did he become more confused after being connected?

Du Gou leaned his body to the back of the chair and waved his hand when Du He was about to speak and interrupted him: "We are brothers. I can't give anyone face, but I must give you face, because it is related to your future, so... with your intelligence, I shouldn't have to say more, right?"

Yes, there is no need to say more. Du He finally understood why she just mentioned casually that she was going to Dengzhou. Li Chengqian immediately nodded in agreement. It turned out that the root was actually here!

However, even though he understood the whole story, Du He did not miss it. On the contrary, he still felt that Du Gou was a little unfavorable!

Just imagine, if the old man Du Ruhui had not been in Zhenguan for help, he would have been dead long ago without Li Chengqian's help. If Du Gou had not arranged for him to come to Shandong and kept instructing him on how to develop the economy of Dengzhou, he would probably not be able to reach his current position in another ten years.

As for Du He himself... he didn't think his ability was competent for the fourth-rank responsibilities. If it weren't for Li Chengqian, the Du family Erlang would have been a playboy in Chang'an City.
