As expected, just as Rosen finished speaking, Kyle was immediately shocked.

“What!? Those guys are planning on something too?

“How dare they rebel against me!

“He is such a heaven-gifted genius of the country. I was the one who found him first, but all of them wish to beat me to it and recruit him under their own hands?!

“Well, all of you are smart indeed. It seems that I have to guard my prize against all of you, or else you will break down the defenses!”

Looking at Kyle’s agitated look, Rosen could not help but snicker slyly. Since he was found out, he could not take the blame alone. It was the right thing for everyone to take the blame.

In this way, he still had a chance. He was now back at the starting line with Andrew and the others.

After the king’s anger subsided and this matter was forgotten, it would not be too late for him to run away secretly to find Lorne again.

Of course, Kyle could not guess what Rosen was scheming.

However, he did not take that chance and warned Rosen again, “Rosen, forget about what you did this time. If I find out that you want to poach my talent next time, I will not let you off.

“Let’s not even talk about the death penalty. I’ll hang you upside down with a beam and let you hang in front of the meeting hall for an hour. I’ll see if you can take it when the imperial court is selected!”

“…”

The corner of his mouth suddenly twitched.

This was was ruthless, he was much too vicious!

In order to snatch a talent, they had to fight against each other like this!

Rosen was a little worried about Kyle’s threat, but he was more determined to get Lorne to work for him no matter what.

He decided that it would be worth it for the king to punish him, but first, he must successfully poach the talent! Yet Rosen still replied very respectfully, “I shall obey Your Majesty’s order. I promise not to snatch such talent from you, Your Majesty.”

Then, he raised his head and raised his eyebrows at Kyle.

“However, Your Majesty, even if I follow your wishes, but will Andrew and the others follow suit? You must be careful.”

Kyle immediately slammed the table and glared at him.

“Get out of here, get out of here right now. It’s all because of you. If they find out about it, they might take turns to poach my talent.

“Now you’re saying really sarcastic things. If someone really poached me, I won’t let them off easily.”

Rosen laughed dryly in embarrassment. Then, he bowed to Kyle again and left. After Rosen left, a different light flashed in Kyle’eyes.

“I didn’t expect that I would have so many potential opponents. I can’t go on like this.

“I have to hurry up and confirm Lorne’s thoughts before they do.

“Otherwise, who knows what these guys can do? If they really succeed and recruit Lorne into their hands, then I’ll be at a great loss.

“These are all talents that I’ve discovered first. How can I let them take advantage of me and reap what I sow?”

…

After making up his mind on this matter, Kyle placed this idea at the back of his mind.

The more important thing now was to start the large-scale production and refinement of refined salt, as well as the distribution of the incoming and outgoing goods.

A large business that spans the entire empire requires a lot of preparation work. However, once it gets done well, the harvest would be bountiful.

When the time comes, he could earn as much money as he wanted and spend it as he wanted. Even just thinking about this kind of life instantly brightened his mood.

Kyle immediately slammed the table and called in a few servants. After that, he gave detailed instructions on how to carry out the operation and dismissed them.

He even gave one of the servants a token to show his identity when he enters and leaves the palace.

His instructions were simple. He asked these servants to represent him to buy a few pieces of land near Lolan City or directly use the manor owned by the palace.

He would clear out an empty plot of land for this operation. After all, according to Lorne’s scale, it was definitely not enough to have a small plot of land. At the very least, there had to be a big plot of land.

With that, the other servants and guards went to look for manpower. Anyway, they had to spend money to hire them first. Kyle did not care about these initial investments.

Apart from these, the servant who carried Kyle’s token was responsible for communicating with some officials from the Ministry of Finance.

Of course, he was not going to look for high-ranking officials like the head of the Ministry of Finance or the deputy of the Ministry of Finance. Instead, he was going to look for middle-and lower-level officials who were mainly in charge of certain smaller matters.

Once the token gets taken out, these middle-and lower-level managers would be honest. Not only would it be convenient for them, but they would also not dare to report to the higher-ups.

In this way, Kyle could sit in the palace and control the overall situation behind the scenes. He would not have to expose his identity and be blamed by the civil and military officials.

He could also ensure the smooth implementation of crude salt extraction. As for the other side and corner affairs, all sorts of purchasing and restocking, Kyle carefully and diligently gave out these tasks as well.

In any case, there were many servant groups in the palace, and they were all loyal to him, and to the king’s orders.

Therefore, Kyle did not have to worry about anything. He directly spread out these tasks one by one, and the initial arrangements were almost completed.

After these servants were deployed collectively, Kyle laid down leisurely on the reclining chair in the study.

As soon as he was ready, he immediately went to Lorne’s tiny tavern to discuss the next steps and start the construction.

As long as this industry took action in a grand manner, countless amounts of money would surge into his pockets like a flowing waterfall.

Mountains of gold and silver would be moved directly into his private vault, and he would easily get endless money.

Under this wonderful imagination, Kyle gradually lay on the recliner and fell asleep. In his sleep, Kyle’s thoughts gradually drifted away. After a while, he dreamed that he had really earned a lot of money and renovated the palace he usually lived in. The longer it went on, he even dreamed that he had custom-made a large pile of clothes for all the concubines in the harem. Each of them was given a box of jewelry, and the concubines were all grinning from ear to ear.

Not long after, he dreamed that the country was in urgent need of money. Rosen and the other ministers were all anxious and worried about the funds. In fact, everyone in the palace was trembling with worry. When the national treasury could not afford the money, as the king, he directly pulled out truckloads of gold, silver, and jewelry from his private vault. The copper coins and silver coins piled up into a mountain.

In his dream, he imagined Rosen and the other ministers dumbstruck, with their expressions in a daze. Kyle was simply enjoying himself too much in this dream.

“Hehehe!”

Kyle, who was lying on the recliner, turned over and even spoke in his sleep. He let out waves of strange and horrifying laughter.

The guards who were guarding outside the study at all times could not help but shudder when they vaguely heard Kyle’s laughter today.

What was wrong with the king today?

He seemed to be acting a little strange.

However, they were only guards, so they naturally could not say anything.. They could only stand a little straighter with a strange expression and guard the door of Kyle’s study tightly.
