"Isn't the method we can use right now right in front of us?"

Liu Muzhi just thought about it and said this.

"What's the meaning."

This statement is a little confusing.

"Killing a chicken to scare the monkeys is indeed too absolute. Now let's destroy the workshop first. Your Majesty, use your status to build a monopoly so that no one will act rashly next time."

"First of all, the reason they dare to act rashly is that they dare not act openly. Acting in secret can greatly restrict your ability, Your Majesty. Moreover, as far as the current situation is concerned, those who can be caught are generally scapegoats."

That's right.

Yu Huatian nodded and seemed to have something in mind.

Then he nodded and asked Liu Muzhi tentatively.

"Is it difficult to catch the one behind this?"

"That group of people naturally dared to do it because they had in mind the sugar industry monopoly. Since they dared to do it, they must have made secret arrangements. The people they arrested were usually arranged in advance."

"So no matter how you interrogate, you won't find out anything."

Yu Huatian continued to ask.

"Yes, we might as well give up this opportunity. After all, there's no benefit in asking these people all the time. We won't gain anything."

"So what you mean is."

This guy is difficult to catch, and he is not allowed to be interrogated. Could it be that he was arrested in vain?

"Your Majesty, please restore the salt monopoly and then deal with those people directly. They are a nuisance if they stay. And the property deeds and land deeds left behind..."

At this point, Liu Muzhi sighed awkwardly.

How come this group of people, who were so good at predicting things, didn't think of taking the house deeds and land deeds with them when they left?

"House deeds and land titles are purely regulated and are checked regularly. If someone doesn't have one, their property will be directly seized for one and a half months."

It can be considered a political law that was introduced a long time ago.

To be honest, when Zhao Xin was looking up the law, he never thought that there would be such an unscrupulous law... Well, I have to say that this situation is indeed beneficial for inspections.

Moreover, it is also beneficial to directly seize the house deeds and land deeds when arresting people at their homes.

This is why he was able to obtain the house deeds and land titles so easily.

"We can take back the property deeds and land titles directly."

“That’s a good idea.”

I have to say this method is really good.

Anyway, that group of people are useless, so they can be executed directly. As for the money, I have kept it in my own arms and it will not fall into the hands of others.

Then I made this decision directly.

It was just a pity that those people were executed in secret, and even their bodies were not left behind. In short, it was done cleanly without any trace.

In just half a day, two lives were lost.

"Has it been dealt with?"

Zhao Xin only asked one question.

"We've taken care of it, and we'll make sure there aren't any traces!"

After saying this, the other party couldn't help but nod, and had to say that it was well done.

Then he sent people down there, intending to turn the workshop into a monopoly. However, when he was investigating, he discovered a problem...

Some people objected.

They say they are against establishing a monopoly system and that they are afraid that after the emperor monopolizes the system, someone will raise prices.

He also issued a direct response to this.

"For the sugar industry, keeping sugar cheap so that anyone can afford it is already a meager profit for the imperial court. Therefore, the salt industry cannot be allowed to increase its share."

The other side has something to say.

Moreover, the rhetoric was like a human wave tactic, forcing him to commit. As long as he made a statement and responded, the other side would respond tactically.

“No one knows whether the two will together drive up prices rather than act as a constraint to lower them.”

"Yes, who knows? What if the emperor secretly controls the prices so that even common items like salt and sugar can't be afforded?"

Zhao Xin also responded directly to this, even responding to the issue of the so-called human wave tactics, and claimed that if someone spread rumors again, he would use legal procedures to resolve the problem.

"Naturally, I am creating a monopoly mainly to make these things affordable for everyone, rather than creating a centralized monopoly that only the nobles can afford. This is obviously not the style of our Great Qin, and certainly not my style."

The other party naturally felt guilty after hearing this, and most of those who supported monopoly were planning to switch sides immediately after hearing this. It would be great if they could spend less money to buy more things.

Who would be so stupid as to just follow the money?

And if His Majesty succeeds, wouldn't these people who have worked so hard to make a living be at a huge loss?

Furthermore, the price of recreating this thing is extremely high. If they raise the price for a short period of time without responding to the price increase, it will only result in losses, and it is even possible that they will not make any profit.

They had anticipated this step a long time ago, but their withdrawal left them with no trace.

The chubby second-generation rich kid was also struggling to get up from his position in the specially prepared tent.

"How are we handling this? We must not give the emperor even the slightest chance. We cannot get caught."

"Oh, my dear, don't worry. You know my methods. I'll handle it cleanly and there won't be any problems."

"That's good. Who else said there's treasure in this desert area? It's been so long and no one has been able to find it. How about sending someone in?"

The second-generation rich man stood up, picked up the fruit next to him and started to eat it in big mouthfuls. There was no elegance at all, as if he was a machine born for eating.

After eating, he lay on the bed and rubbed his stomach.

"It's best not to send anyone up there right now. It would be useless if we send anyone there now. It's better to observe the situation carefully at this border first."

"You only talk about this every day. By the way, do you know where Dongfang is? I heard that there has been no news since he went to the Black Wasteland."

"I heard that the Tiandi Sect in the east is about to collapse, but I haven't heard much about this Black Wasteland. Besides, if they leave, they leave."

"Let's go... Humph, I must take over his Tiandi Sect. No matter what he does in that house, I don't want to see it anyway."

"But right now, the people from the Tiandi Sect won't give us a chance. Besides, if we interfere without any reason, we'll be targeted without even realizing it."

The second-generation rich man just threw the remaining fruit on the ground. His face was a little red, and he looked like a little Maitreya Buddha with his eyes wide open.

"We have to deal with these people no matter what. Besides, you don't know that I've disliked them for a long time. Not to mention now, I didn't want to see them before!"
