Become the city lord from today

There is only one salt seller in Xiyang City. He is a middle-aged man named Yingya. He will hold a bag of salt in his hand all day long. I heard that it is the finest refined salt, which is white salt picked out bit by bit from the salt pile. Salt

"The life of civilians in Xiyang City seems to be getting better and better. The salt sold in these days has almost caught up with the salt sold in several months. This is really a good sign."

Ying Ya sat by the gate, watching the pedestrians coming and going. He watched them carrying wood and gravel as they passed by.

"Everyone should work hard and make more money, otherwise how could they afford salt?"

Ying Ya said with a smile. The street in front of him was very deserted in the past. Since the nobleman named Liu Feng came, he sealed the main avenue and demolished all the houses. Then everyone in the city will leave. He went to see the side avenue, the one in front of Yingya's store, a few days ago. It was still under construction. He heard that the houses on both sides of the main avenue were almost finished, but they were just missing some interior decoration.

There were a few more What's the name of the residential area? The houses are almost finished. More than 2,000 people are building houses together. Can't you hurry up?

There is one thing that makes him feel strange. How come the mud becomes hard every other day, which makes him very curious.

As for the other Yes, Yingya doesn’t understand. He only knows that salt can be sold more now. Those civilians help the city lord work and have saved some copper coins.

"Now a pound of salt costs 30 copper coins. Should the price be increased by one copper coin?"

Yingya has been thinking about this issue for three or four days. Raising prices is normal for businessmen. Just don't be like those stupid grain merchants. He also went to see the hanging that day. Raising prices can make money. Forget it, you actually dare to murder the nobles

"The purchase price from Haiyan City is five copper coins per catty, and the shipping and transportation fees to Xiyang City. The cost of one catty of salt is ten copper coins. I only earn twenty copper coins. When will I earn enough money for retirement? It seems that I still need to raise the price!"

Haiyan City is an alleyway city close to the sea. It is one of the largest cities in the Kingdom. It is rich in sea salt. There are countless sea salts transported from Haiyan City every year. There are so many salt merchants like Yingya.

In fact, Yingya Ya is very envious of the shops in the big market, which is the place with the most people in Xiyang City. What a pity! He actually refuses to sell the shop, only rents it out, and has to pay taxes.

This is what he cannot accept. He originally earned two Ten copper coins are already very little, and you still have to pay taxes. How can you accept it? Anyway, he is the only one selling salt in Xiyang City. If you don’t go to the big market, there will still be people coming to buy salt.

"Tap tap tap……"

The sound of horse hoofbeats woke up the calculating Ying Ya. He looked towards the road and saw four or five carriages pulling things.

"Huh? Isn't that Niu Butler? What happened to make him take action?"Yingya knows that Niu Ben is the housekeeper of City Lord Liu Feng. He rarely leaves the City Lord's mansion. Niu Ben will only go out when he hears that something big has happened.

"The things in the car must be very precious, right? He actually asked Butler Niu to escort him."Yingya stood up and stretched his head to look at the carriage, but it was a pity that there was a wheat mat blocking it.

Niu Ben also saw Yingya, with a strange smile on his lips, and shook his head silently, fearing that this salt merchant would soon need There's a big sale on the vomiting blood.

Or, he has to leave Xiyang City and go to other cities to sell salt, otherwise he is afraid that he will go bankrupt and lose all his money.

Yingya scratched his head, and he also saw Niu Ben's smile. He has been doing business for many years. Intuition gave him a bad premonition

"Does the city owner want to take action against me? This is impossible, right? Isn't he afraid of scaring away other businessmen?"

"Tap tap tap……"

"boom!"

Several carriages drove away, leaving Ying Ya who was thinking wildly. He happened to see something falling from the carriage, and he quickly went up to pick it up.

"Stone? Is it an ore? Could it be that it was a gem mine that allowed Butler Niu to go out?"Yingya's eyes shone, and he immediately hid the stone in his arms, ran back to the shop, and closed the shop.

Niu Ben didn't know that he had lost a piece of salt ore and it was kept as if it were a treasure. At this time, he took the carriage They all rushed into the scientific research department of the military camp.

Being able to make salt from salt ore is a big change no matter what, and being in the heavily guarded scientific research department is the best choice.

When Liu Feng arrived, the people on the carriage The salt mines have all been unloaded and they are piled up like a hill.

"Master, have you seen enough? It’s not enough for me to ask someone to pull me a few more times. Niu Ben said in a deep voice. He went there in person for the first time, which shows how much he values ​​salt.

"Enough is enough. After the salt is refined, it will be enough for thousands of people for many days. Next time when making salt, it will be roughly refined in the same place and then moved to another place."

Liu Feng nodded with satisfaction. There are some things that he cannot release, otherwise they will become a tool for other nobles to make money. He will be the one to promote them, and when the time comes, his promotion will be unimaginable by others, and he will be able to make money. Even with a good reputation, nobles cannot make money

"I'll send someone to keep an eye on it."Niu Ben is not a bad person. He knows who he is loyal to, and he does not believe that the young master is the kind of person who is after money.

Because, the young master should not make money too easily. Watches, crystal glazed cups, compound hunting Bows, etc., if you leak just one of them, you can earn thousands or tens of thousands of gold coins.

But the young master did not do this, and he also wanted to reward them with these magical objects. Where can you find such a master? Maybe there is only one in the world. I can only find this one

"Don’t worry, the price of the produced salt will not be very high, and it will definitely make salt affordable for everyone. Liu Feng chuckled.
