Seeing his son push away his daughter-in-law, Murong Yuan knew that his son had something important to say to him, so he spoke first.

"Hao'er, is there anything else you want to tell your father?"

Murong Hao saw that there were only father and son in the hall, so he took out two small paper bags from his sleeve pocket.

Then they spread a piece of paper on the dining table where they had just eaten, and poured out the salt from the two paper bags.

Murong Yuan naturally knew that the crystals on the paper were salt, but he was curious about what Hao'er was going to say next.

"Father, the thing on the paper is table salt, and the grayish-white thing here was made by the son and the princess using the salt-drying method on the beach of Jinwei City." Murong Hao paused after saying this.

Murong Yuan naturally also knew that seawater can be used to produce sun-dried salt, and he also knew that salt produced from seawater would be poisonous if eaten.

"Hao'er, the salt in seawater is inedible and will cause poisoning if consumed for a long time."

Murong Yuan said, with a look of doubt on his face. He looked at the pile of fine salt that was as white as snow. This salt was not the salt that Dongsheng Kingdom could produce. The salt from Dongsheng Kingdom would not have such a snow-white color, let alone such fineness.

"Father, I know that salt from seawater cannot be eaten directly, but purified sea salt can be eaten." Murong Hao said, picking up a little white salt with his fingers and putting it into his mouth.

Murong Yuan was shocked. He had never heard that sea salt could be purified. He was a little anxious. His son now dared to play riddles with him.

"Hao'er, tell me everything at once." He didn't want to ask questions one by one, he wanted to know the truth.

Murong Hao knew that he had laid the groundwork, so he said respectfully.

"Father, this time I and the Crown Princess went to the seaside of Jinwei City to play. The Crown Princess thought of the sea in her hometown. She said that most of the salt used in her hometown was sea salt, which shocked my son. Later she It is said that she knows the art of drying salt and can purify sea salt. Eating the purified sea salt will not cause poisoning. This white refined salt was purified by her."

Murong Hao would not say that the salt was bought at the mall in the science and technology library, but he did see Xi'er purifying salt, so this should not be considered deceiving.

"Hao'er, is everything you said true?" Murong Yuan knew what it meant to be able to purify sea salt, so he confirmed again.

"Father, everything I say is true." Murong Hao looked serious.

Murong Yuan is a wise king. Tonight, the prince told him that the princess would purify sea salt, but he rejected his princess. He thought that Hao'er still had something to say.

"Hao'er, do you have anything else to say to your father?" Murong Yuan looked at the now fully-fledged prince.

"Back to my father, it's true that I want to get a share of this salt-drying technique for my princess." Murong Hao didn't hesitate and spoke directly.

Murong Yuan knew that his son would talk to him about this matter, but he never thought that he would be so direct.

"How much does she want?" The son asked directly, and as a father, he also followed suit.

"Back to my father, she didn't mention it. It was my son and minister who mentioned it for her." Murong Hao didn't want his father to have too many opinions about Xi'er, so he had to take care of this matter.

"Then what percentage does Hao'er want Father to share?" Jiang was still too old-fashioned, so he pushed the question to his son.

"Fifty percent." Murong Hao looked at his father with a pair of deep starry eyes.

"Hao'er really dotes on that girl." Murong Yuan didn't expect that his son would raise 50%. The treasury and his own pocket would be divided equally. How dare he raise it.

"Father, without her skills, the sea would still be the same sea, just for people to watch. She is worth it."

Murong Hao said the above words without being humble or arrogant. He didn't know why he was so bold tonight and dared to ask for a high share of the money from his father.

Perhaps he was remembering the annual contract between Xi'er and her father. In order to protect him from love affairs in other countries, she was willing to give a large amount of food to the army every year. This time it was his turn to fight for Xi'er to get the benefits she deserved.

Murong Yuan did not expect that his son would raise such a high share with him, 50% to the treasury and 50% to the prince's palace. Why did the prince's palace need so much money? The gold he has rewarded them both so far is more than they can use in their lifetimes, and they still want more?

And who is his wife here? There are so many talented people in Dongsheng Kingdom, but none of them can purify sea salt. How can she, a doctor and a woman with a merchant background, have such skills?

A series of question marks reminded Murong Yuan of the questions he had never been able to get answers to.

Murong Yuan thought for a moment. In the future, the country belongs to his son. He took a step back and thought that he didn't need to come up with this salt-drying method now. He would promulgate it after he ascended the throne. At that time, he wanted to give his queen a few percent of the profit. He has the final say. Perhaps he is taking it out now for the sake of the people.

"My father has a question to ask you. If you answer it truthfully, my father will give her five percent."

Murong Hao was not stupid. He knew that his father's problem would not be simple. He asked instead:

"Father, what if I can't answer the question? How much share will you give to the Crown Princess?"

The brat, now that his wings are strong, he dares to question his father. Murong Yuan gave Murong Hao a flying knife look.

"Thirty percent." Murong Yuan casually said a percentage.

Murong Hao had a smile on his lips. Thirty percent was enough. Before, Xi'er didn't care whether he wanted to divide the money or not. Now, the 30% is already a great mercy from his father.

"Okay, father, may I ask." Murong Hao looked at his father respectfully and listened to the question.

"Tell Father, who is the Crown Princess and where does she come from?" Murong Yuan looked at his son intently.

Murong Hao knew that his father's question was difficult to answer. This question was something he never expected. His father actually kept trying to find out who Xi'er was.

"Back to my father, the Crown Princess does not belong to the Four Kingdoms. She came to Dongsheng Kingdom from a distant country." This was all Murong Hao could say.

"You really don't want to say it?"

Murong Yuan knew that if he couldn't get the answer today, he would never get the answer to this question in the future. He sent many men to check Haoer before and after marriage, but they couldn't find out his daughter-in-law's background, family background or even her country.

"Father, the Crown Princess is kind-hearted, well-educated, and knowledgeable about the past and present. Marrying her is a blessing for her son. Why does my father need to know where she comes from? She has never meant harm to others. She always thinks about the people's livelihood. She is not What a wicked person, please ask Father to withdraw his investigation of the Crown Princess."

Murong Hao naturally knew that his father had been checking Xi'er's life experience, and today he also wanted to make his position clear to his father.

The people sent out checked many things about his daughter-in-law. Murong Yuan knew his daughter-in-law's character well. Apart from being a little tacky and liking gold, she could hardly find any other faults. He, an emperor, always paid attention to his daughter-in-law's life experience and spread the news. It's a shame.

"That's all, my father won't care about where she comes from. Now it's the time when the imperial court is expanding its army, and the treasury is not that full. Give her 30% of the salt-drying technique. In the future, you will sit in my father's position. You will know how much money a country needs."

Murong Yuan has his own plan. If the salt-drying technique is successful, not only Dongsheng Kingdom, but also the other three countries will buy salt from Dongsheng Kingdom. That is a huge amount of income, and giving this great hero 30% of the profit will not count. Too much.

"Thank you, Father."

Murong Hao thought that from such a huge industry, his Xi'er could receive 30% profit. He wondered how happy she would be after hearing this good news.
