Chapter 483

~3 min read 514 words

"After you hang up the royal plaque for Bai Yu Sugar, the powerful and noble of Changancheng will surely scramble for it. Black sugar will become unsellable; you only need to bundle the Bai Yu Sugar and black sugar together for sale!"

"At that time, the price of black sugar will surely plummet. You can then buy low and sell high; repeating this cycle, the Wang family will be squeezed out!"

As the words fell.

Xie Anran and Zhao Jifa's eyes widened instantly, and a terrifying chill suddenly washed over them.

With this bundling tactic, the Wang family's black sugar business would be snatched away in an instant.

Because the price of black sugar was not cheap to begin with, and ordinary commoners could not afford it, but once Bai Yu Sugar appeared, with its overwhelming publicity, monopoly, and the pursuit of the powerful families.

Bai Yu Sugar would be snatched up like crazy!

Black sugar would surely plummet!

Adding the bundling, it was equivalent to snatching away a portion of the black sugar business that was already destined to shrink.

This move was ruthless!

Xie Anran had a flash of inspiration and said, "Lord Gao, it is rumored in Changancheng recently that a peerless secret manual called the Sunflower Manual has appeared. My Xie family's retainers have gone to fight for it; once they snatch it, I will present it to Lord Gao, and Lord Gao can present it to His Majesty!"

Upon hearing this, Gao Yang's mouth twitched.

He looked at Xie Anran and said amusingly, "Family Head Xie, that idea of yours is very dangerous!"

"It is fortunate that the current Emperor is a female Empress; otherwise, if you really snatched it, I fear we would all be executed to the ninth degree!"

When these words were spoken, Xie Anran was shocked.

"Lord Gao, why is that?"

"Since we are all in the same boat, this official will speak plainly: because the first page of this Sunflower Manual says, 'To practice this art, one must first castrate oneself'."

When Gao Yang said this.

Even as a woman, Xie Anran was shocked.

"What?"

"'To practice this art, one must first castrate oneself'???"

"This technique is so vicious?"

Zhao Jifa, with his head of white hair, also had his pupils constrict upon hearing this.

This technique was quite overbearing!

But immediately after, Xie Anran and Zhao Jifa realized something was wrong.

"Lord Gao, this peerless secret manual is only known by name throughout Changancheng, and no one knows its contents. How does Lord Gao know that the first page says 'To practice this art, one must first castrate oneself'?"

Xie Anran asked, puzzled.

Hearing this, Gao Yang revealed a mouthful of white teeth, smiled, and said lightly, "Because this Sunflower Manual came from this official's own hand."

"Back then, when I was assassinated by martial arts experts, I concocted this Sunflower Manual and made it look old. It just so happened that the Li family was being wiped out by enemies, and it came in handy."

Xie Anran: "..."

Zhao Jifa: "..."
