After hearing this question, the drunken gentlemen and businessmen maintained their original postures, but their ears perked up.
The person who succeeds Cao Huachun will definitely continue to implement the currency reform.
If you can know the other party's identity in advance, you might be able to make a fortune by catering to his or her needs.
Cao Huachun sat next to Lu Daqi. He whispered in Lu Daqi's ear, "Wang Zhixin will take my place."
"Who?" Lu Daqi exclaimed.
"It's the King's Heart!" Cao Huachun repeated in a low voice.
"Wang..." Lu Daqi deliberately said the first word loudly, and then fell silent.
He kept clicking his tongue and shaking his head, "This is terrible! He is such a tough guy!"
Although the gentry and merchants present only heard the word "Wang", they had already guessed the other party's identity based on Lu Daqi's reaction.

Thinking that Wang Zhixin was coming, the gentry felt a chill down their spines.

How can we resist when we are already buried in the ground?
After realizing the seriousness of the matter, a gentleman came over with a wine glass in hand and said, "Master Cao, you can't leave. We can't bear to let you go!"
"Yes," another gentry came over and said, "With you here, the people of Guanzhong can eat low-priced grain."
"Master Cao cannot abandon us!"
Cao Huachun gave a bitter smile and said, "I have to leave. I have messed up the currency reform."
A gentleman with a bad reputation was anxious. He stepped forward and said loudly: "Sir Cao, I am willing to exchange all the silver in my family for silver coins to support the court's currency reform."
