The two brothers went to the place where the banknotes were made and came to the room with ease.
Bai Changkong was responsible for guarding the place, while Bai Wu was printing the banknotes inside.
Originally, he planned to print 25 million taels this time, but Bai Wu secretly printed an additional 10 million taels.
He has no intention of telling his elder brother. When the time comes, he will hide the ten million taels privately and play with it slowly.
Three days later, the two brothers took the banknotes to the gambling house and returned the money to Jiang Ruoxue.
Afterwards, the two of them said goodbye.
Jiang Ruoxue asked the two of them to come over to play, but they refused.
Today, the two brothers have more important things to do.
The Qiankun Chamber of Commerce has sent people to transport salt to Baifu.
Today is the time to deliver salt to the court.
Last time, Bai Yongliang asked His Majesty to grant Shilipu to him and make it his fiefdom, but His Majesty refused.
Bai Yongliang said angrily that the salt delivered after three days would be withheld.
Bai Yongliang thought that if he did this, His Majesty and the civil and military officials must be very anxious, and they would definitely send someone to discuss this matter.
After all, all the people in the Great Yan Dynasty could not survive without salt.
But three days have passed, and His Majesty and the court have not sent anyone over!
Bai Yongliang saw salt everywhere in the courtyard of the mansion and the warehouse. He was dumbfounded for a moment and didn't know what to do.
He had waited until night, but the court still didn't send anyone over.
Bai Changkong and Bai Wu also began to worry.
"Second Uncle, what's going on with Your Majesty? Do you want to fight with Second Uncle?"
"In the past, if my second uncle needed anything or any fiefdom, His Majesty would agree to it."
"Could it be that my second uncle has really offended His Majesty, so His Majesty is so decisive?"
Bai Yongliang was anxious.
He felt that things were not that simple. The behavior of the court and civil and military officials was too quiet, unusually quiet!
Bai Yongliang thought for a while and snorted coldly.
"Since the imperial court wants to carry it with me, let's see who can carry it with me."
Bai Changkong nodded and said: "Even if the imperial court can resist for one month, can it still survive for two months? Not three months?"
"Sooner or later, he will come back to his second uncle, and he must surrender to the Bai family."
"That's right." Bai Wu also thought so.
"Your Majesty did this on purpose this time, just to embarrass our Bai family and my second uncle."
"However, His Majesty's wishful thinking must have been overturned. As long as the ownership of the salt is in our hands, they will eventually compromise and bow their heads!"
Bai Yongliang waited until late at night, but did not wait for anyone from the court to come.
He simply put all the salt in the warehouse and sealed it.
In the blink of an eye, five days have passed, and there is still no response from the court.
All the civil and military officials in the court were asking about this matter every day.
Luo Ningxin told everyone that she had her own way to solve this matter.
As time goes by, the civil and military officials in North Korea and China are like ants on a hot pot.
Bai Yongliang was also anxious, and he immediately contacted Princess Xuanyu.
Recently, Princess Xuanyu has been living in the Imperial Capital and has been following the orders of the Ghost Pavilion to take the next step.
"See the princess!" Bai Yongliang saluted the princess and hurriedly told what happened recently.
Princess Xuanyu frowned. She didn't expect that His Majesty would give up salt for a small Shilipu.
"This matter is not your fault. Since His Majesty is so insistent, then there is no need to give him salt. How long will they last?"
Bai Yongliang thought for a while and said: "I think so too, but based on my understanding of Your Majesty, this matter may not be that simple!"
Bai Yongliang expressed his doubts.
In the past, His Majesty did not hesitate to deprive Fang Chen of everything for the sake of salt. But this time, for a small Shilipu, he suddenly refused to ask for salt and insisted on it. This is very contradictory.
The Bai family and the imperial court have been fighting against His Majesty for so many years, and they have a deep understanding of His Majesty.
In this situation, there is only one possibility, and that is that His Majesty has a way to solve the problem, so his attitude is so tough.
Princess Xuanyu was very surprised after hearing Bai Yongliang's explanation.
But after much thought, she realized that it was impossible for the Yan Dynasty to solve the salt problem.
Because the population base of the Dayan Dynasty was so large, no other country could provide such a large amount of salt except the Daqian Dynasty.
Princess Xuanyu thought about it and came up with a plan, then said: "Then let's wait and see what your Majesty wants to do?"
"If it doesn't work, let's delay it for two months. When they get anxious, the initiative will be in our hands, and they won't be able to let us control it."
Princess Xuanyu's intention was the same as what she did last time, so she repeated her old tricks.
Bai Yongliang left with an uneasy mood.
And early the next morning, someone from the court came.
Ye Fan, the minister of Honglu Temple, came to Tongtian Chamber of Commerce.
After Bai Yongliang saw Ye Fan, he said with a condescending attitude: "Master Ye, come to me so early, what's the matter?"
When Ye Fan saw Bai Yongliang, he felt angry and wanted to squeeze this guy to death.
"President Bai, His Majesty asked me to come this time. I have something important to discuss with you!"
Bai Yongliang thought His Majesty had compromised.
The two came to the hall and sat opposite each other. At this time, Ye Fan spoke up and said: "President Bai, it has been five days since the date for the salt delivery by your Tongtian Chamber of Commerce. Why haven't you handed over the salt yet? I don't know Bai Hui." What does it mean to be long?”
Bai Yongliang said coldly: "I don't mean anything, I just want the small town of Shilipu."
"And what your Majesty has done is so chilling to me, so we'd better discuss the salt issue again."
Bai Yongliang's attitude is very tough and his meaning is very clear.
Give me Shilipu and I will give you salt. Otherwise, forget it.
Ye Fan's face turned cold when he heard that the other party was not giving any face, and said: "President Bai, you have to think clearly. His Majesty was furious in the morning today. His Majesty's meaning is very clear. I hope you can Hand over the salt immediately and proceed with the transaction as stipulated in the contract."
"If President Bai insists on going his own way and causes a breach of contract, I'm afraid President Bai will not be able to bear the consequences!"
Bai Yongliang didn't expect that the other party would actually say threatening words to him, and he suddenly became furious.
He said angrily: "Master Ye, what do you mean? Are you threatening me?"
"Let me tell you, if I can't get the town of Shilipu, I will never hand over the salt. You go back and tell His Majesty!"
Ye Fan did not expect Bai Yongliang to be so unreasonable. His eyes flashed with murderous intent and he said coldly: "Okay, very good. I will tell your Majesty exactly what you said. Don't regret it!"
After saying half a sentence, Ye Fan left.
Bai Yongliang felt that the matter was very serious. Did His Majesty really want to break up with him because of Shilipu?
