Chapter 560 It’s just a small revenge (Updated 2)

The Fifth Prince did not use the name of the Ministry of Commerce to do things, but used his own Wu Family Business.

This business has an open boss, and he is just the helmsman behind the scenes.

Even if these noble families find out about the Wu Family Business, it is difficult to determine the mastermind behind the scenes.

Although the Wu Family Business also suffered a lot of losses because of this, the Fifth Prince was happy.

Anyway, he has no shortage of money, and money can’t buy him happiness.

Once the Fifth Prince is happy, his officials will no longer be timid in doing things.

Just when the four family heads were furious, the business of Tianxia Diyilou was booming, and guests were flocking in every day, and all the guests were children of wealthy business families. There were

also some noble families who heard of the reputation of Tianxia Diyilou and came from thousands of miles away just for a bite of food.

The No.1 Restaurant in the World has new dishes, which are rare and unique in the world, and everyone wants to try them.

Whether it is potato chicken nuggets or potato shreds, they have become popular delicacies.

I heard that this is a delicacy that is extremely rare to taste even in the capital, so naturally everyone will not let it go.

There are many delicacies that can be made from potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn.

The main focus of the No.1 Restaurant in the World is exquisiteness and wealth.

The ingredients are either unique or rare in the world.

Apart from other things, the various ways of eating potatoes alone have dazzled the wealthy people in the Jiangnan region.

Potatoes can form a perfect match with all kinds of meat, and even if these people eat them every day, they will never repeat themselves.

What's more, after eating potatoes, there are all kinds of sweet potatoes. The most common one is the sweet potato with shreds, which is absolutely hard to resist.

Add pork ribs and corn soup, and no one can resist it.

There are also pine nut corn, popcorn, and even simple boiled corn, which make many rich and powerful people never forget.

In addition to the fact that these foods are really delicious, the main point is that it is a first try.

I have never eaten it before, coupled with the chef's exquisite craftsmanship and the sense of nobility that can't be found anywhere else, it is naturally very attractive.

The price of the fifth prince is even more outrageous. A small plate of pine nut corn costs ten taels of silver.

However, with such a high price, no customer ever thought it was expensive. They only thought it was worth the money, and that such ingredients and such prices were worthy of their worth.

It can be said that the Fifth Prince made a fortune just by relying on these three ingredients.

Let's just say that the Fifth Prince was serious about making money!

As one thing went up, the other went down. The business of Tianxia Diyilou was booming, and the original restaurant business in Gusu City plummeted.

The heads of the four major families felt that their lips were covered with blisters.

In Gusu City, the restaurant business was robbed and basically had no profit.

The granary has almost no business. When other granaries charge 10 wen for a bucket of rice, no fool would buy their rice at 1,000 wen.

And the traders traveling between the north and the south are losing money. They don’t know what’s wrong with the Wu family business. How dare they compete with them for business?

If the situation is not so serious and they are too busy to handle it, they will definitely teach this Wu family who came out of nowhere a lesson!

Now the only thing that can support them is the business of the silk shop, the inn, and the silver shop.

However, they can’t even maintain a balance between income and expenditure with these alone.

In the long run, without income, it will be difficult for them to maintain the luxurious and decent life of the family!

The four heads of the family were like trapped beasts, and their only hope was to deal with the Red Lotus Sect in the future. As long as they caught the prince, they might be able to break out.

However, things did not go as they wished.

The people they sent out spent five days and finally got the news.

It turned out that although the followers of the Red Lotus Sect were not in prison, they were sent to a labor reform brigade.

These people were registered randomly and were helping the disaster refugees rebuild their houses in various places.

His Royal Highness the Prince made a rule that these people must complete a certain amount of work and earn corresponding work points before they can leave the labor reform brigade and become civilians again.

It can be said that this measure is unheard of and unseen.

However, it is quite useful.

Most of the followers of the Red Lotus Sect were desperate people. They really couldn't survive and joined the sect just to have a bite of food.

These people were not evil people. Now that they heard about the strategy of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and knew that they didn't have to lose their heads, they were all grateful.

Isn't it just to work and earn work points?

They just do it, as long as there is a way to survive.

Of course, only the grassroots followers can enter the labor reform team. The leaders of the Red Lotus Sect and several key protectors will naturally be beheaded.

These people are not qualified for reform.

With such a large number of people undergoing labor reform, plus cement, the killer, it is really too easy to build houses.

Such a large number of people, under the leadership of the petty officials of the Ministry of Works, have already built many cement houses.

This is just the beginning. They will continue to build houses for those who have lost their homes, so that they can live in houses that are cold-proof, warm, windproof and rainproof before winter comes.

So that they will not be homeless when winter comes.

After receiving this news, the four heads of the family were silent for a long time and looked at each other without words.

No one thought that the prince would play such a trick. He even did not let go of the followers of the Red Lotus Sect and took them all back to work.

This not only adds free labor and saves wages, but also gives these followers a way to make a living.

Originally, whether the prince executed these believers or let them go lightly and let the matter go for a few days, they had corresponding countermeasures. No matter what the prince decided, as long as His Royal Highness was involved in this matter, they would have a way to raise a wave of condemnation against the prince.

However, they never expected that His Royal Highness would not choose either option, but instead set up a labor reform brigade!

The little prince said that the short videos in the small supermarket were not in vain, and there was so much knowledge to learn from them.

He promised the people in the disaster area that even if he left, he would not let them be homeless.

He kept his word, how could he break his promise?

There are so many people in the Red Lotus Sect, and they just happened to build houses. Only after they are thoroughly renovated can they start their lives again.

The little prince was very satisfied when he read Qin An's letter.

Sure enough, Lord Qin has strong ability to do things. The labor reform team is managed very well by him, and the rooms have been improved a lot.

Not bad, not bad, another thing is done.

Now the only thing that needs to be solved is the grain price problem.

The four great families lost the Red Lotus Sect as a point of attack, and they could not directly ask the other four grain stores to raise the price of rice. Now, they only had one way to go. They

could either fight to the death and bet that the other four grain stores would not have enough surplus grain to sell, or they could make a desperate move and sell at a lower price to try their best to recover the losses.
