"Who in this world dares to slander His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? If someone hadn't actually died from eating refined salt, no one would dare to say that!"
The passion of the people was ignited again and they shouted loudly.
At this moment, Shangguan Wan'er also walked in and said, "Brother Qin Yu! You treat the lives of the people as a joke for your own selfish desires. Wan'er is so disappointed!"
"People, I just heard that Brother Qin Yu refined poisonous refined salt in order to buy up all the salt mines in Daliang at a low price and let you eat it. He wanted to create the illusion that refined salt could replace coarse salt and make the noble families voluntarily give up the salt mines!"
what!
Hearing Shangguan Wan'er's words, the common people's eyes widened in shock. At this moment, a noble family member approached and said in a deep voice, "Your Highness! We just learned about this matter too. We only came here to ask you one thing. If we don't sell the salt mine now, will you force us to do it?"
They didn't want to come here to question Qin Yu, but they had already promised Qin Yu about the salt mine. If they suddenly decided not to sell it, they would be in the wrong!
At this time, Shangguan Wan'er came to them again and asked them to come forward to question Qin Yu. With so many people present, Qin Yu would definitely make concessions, and their salt mine would be saved!
"Haha! Before you hand over the title deed to the salt mine to me and get the silver, the salt mine is still yours. Whether to sell it or not is naturally up to you!"
Qin Yu said with a sneer.
"Well then! Your Highness! We won't sell this salt mine!"
The nobles spoke one after another.
"can!"
Qin Yu said in a deep voice.
Ok?
Although they had long known that Qin Yu would be forced to agree to the people's demands due to pressure from them, the fact that Qin Yu agreed so readily still made the nobles feel puzzled.
Is refined salt truly non-toxic? Are these toxic claims truly spread by those with ulterior motives?
"Everyone! Did you see that? No noble family would sell salt mines to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Doesn't this just prove that refined salt is poisonous?"
Just then, someone in the crowd shouted.
"That's right! If refined salt were non-toxic, the noble families wouldn't be able to sell their crude salt. What else would they do if they don't sell their salt mines?"
"Haha! This just proves that refined salt is poisonous!"
The people also followed suit.
Qin Hong said coldly, "Your Highness! It seems that if you can't prove that refined salt is non-toxic today, it will be difficult for you to get away with it!"
"Haha! In that case, I, the prince, will convince the people today!"
Qin Yu said with a smile.
"Hmph! You're playing tricks on me! I'll see how you can prove to the people that refined salt is non-toxic! That experiment you did earlier doesn't count!"
Qin Hong said coldly.
"People! Since you want this prince to prove that refined salt is non-toxic, even if this prince finds refined salt, there will still be people who accuse this prince of fraud. So, go back now and bring the refined salt from your homes!"
"This prince proves in front of you that the refined salt in your homes is non-toxic!"
Qin Yu said coldly.
"Okay! I'll go home and get some salt now!"
"I'm going back to get the refined salt too. I bought a lot. If it's proven to be poisonous today, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will refund the money I spent on the refined salt!"
The people said this and then went home to get refined salt.
