The Earth Supplier of the Wizarding World

Chapter 114 Cut off the beard

Using the city lord's palace to hold an auction of ice jade porcelain tableware and hold a banquet to create publicity was considered to have been approved by Earl Theodore.

Yan Xing took advantage of the old fox's happiness and proposed the idea of ​​building a road between New Tower City and the Eternal Territory.

"I have come all the way from the Eternal Territory, and it is all grassland. It is not too difficult to build a road. As long as there is a clear road between us, goods from Thunder Swamp and New Tower City can flow quickly.

Our Thunder Swamp has many specialties, not just ice jade porcelain, flight goggles and watches. We also need supplies from New Tower City...stones, wood, wine, vegetables, furniture.

In addition, I plan to cultivate the leased land to plant wheat when the sowing season comes.

This all requires a smooth road. "

Count Theodore still supports building a road to the Eternal Territory. Trade can exchange what is needed and can also increase the city's tax revenue.

But thinking of the environment in New Tower City at this time, he persuaded Yan Xing: "Now is not a good time to build roads. The situation in the Gale Highlands has been very tense recently. Marquis Anderson asked me to reduce the city's food supply to meet the war consumption.

The price of food in Niuta City has risen rapidly, and the price of everything you bring has increased.

Building roads now costs twice as much as before. "

During the conversation, Count Theodore asked Yan Xing to sit on the reading table next to the magic fountain, and then took three books from the bookshelf and placed them in front of Yan Xing.

"A Brief History of Magic", "Magic Symbols and Language", "Elements"

Yan Xing picked up "A Brief History of Magic" and flipped through it. The content inside was the history of the development of magic and basic magic theories.

Yan Xing read the book very quickly, and he could still talk to Count Theodore while reading: "I don't have gold, but I have a batch of grain. I want to use this batch of grain as funds to build this road..."

Before Yan Xing could finish speaking, Count Theodore interrupted him and asked, "Do you have food? How much?"

Crisis and oppression inside and outside New Tower City, food is the basis for maintaining all stability. The grain controlled by the city lord's palace must be used for war preparations, so Marquis Theodore could only watch as the grain merchants in the city raised the price of grain.

If food prices are allowed to soar, it will only exacerbate the internal turmoil in New Tower City.

If civilians have no food to eat, urban riots will occur.

Therefore, Marquis Theodore was very sensitive to the word grain, and became excited when he heard Yan Xing say that he had grain in his hand.

"Not much..." Yan Xing put aside the "A Brief History of Magic" he had finished reading, picked up "Magic Symbols and Language" and continued to read quickly, and replied to Count Theodore: "But help the tutor to get Nuta It is enough for the city's food prices to be within a suitable range.

However, I do not sell my food directly, I only pay for it in the form of labor wages and payment for goods. "

"Why do you have so much food? Of course, this is your business..." Count Theodore did not delve into the source of the food. It would be bad if the amount of food Yanxing could provide shrank. Anyway, as long as you have food in your hands to hedge against the grain merchants, it doesn't matter where the food comes from. The old earl said to Yan Xing: "Now is an extraordinary period, and it is normal for food prices to increase. I think doubling the food price can be accepted by the common people. If the price is tight, no one will starve to death. If it is higher, there will be trouble."

At this time, you can provide food to build roads and cultivate land, and you can also give jobs to those who have no money to eat.

It can both suppress food prices and build roads at low cost.

Very good, very good.

I support……"

Seeing that the old fox only expressed his support without talking about actual problems, Yan Xing made it clear: "Teacher... building the road from Yonglian to New Tower City will not benefit my family. You can't let me pay all the cost of building the road." out.

Why should the money for the line from the border to New Tower City be paid out? "

When it comes to money, Count Theodore immediately becomes sad.

"Yanxing, I really have no money now. The rainfall in this year's rainy season was very heavy, and the road from New Tower City to Storm City was seriously washed away. If we want to ensure the supply of supplies for the war, we must completely repair this road as soon as possible. Duan Daxiu.

Golden Oak Chamber of Commerce will give me 5 gold per hundred meters of the repair cost. The maintenance cost alone for the 150-kilometer road from New Tower City to Storm City is 7,500 gold.

If it were normal, these Qianyu Tower City could be easily taken out. But...in order to prepare for the war, New Tower City's treasury has been almost emptied. "

The old fox complained to Yanxing that he was poor and did not want to pay for road construction.

But Yan Xing's mind was filled with shiny gold coins and exchange rate formulas.

One gold coin is calculated as 9,000 RMB, and 7,500 gold coins is more than 60 million.

Be good!

Most of the roads outside the city in this world are rammed earth roads. The Golden Oak Chamber of Commerce just fills the gap with some soil and dares to ask for 5 gold per 100 meters.

It's really like slaughtering the old fox as a fat sheep.

No... I must not let this kind of profiteer cheat my mentor.

If you want to cheat, I will cheat.

The fat water does not flow to outsiders' fields.

Yan Xing closed "Magical Correspondence and Language" and said to the earl: "Teacher, leave the construction of the road from New Tower City to Storm City to me."

Count Theodore replied: "No...the repair of this section of road must be completed within two months. Only the road repair team of the Golden Oak Chamber of Commerce can repair the road so quickly. UU Reading www.uukanshhu.net.

This is also the reason why they dare to ask me for a high price. "

Yan Xing held the last "Elements" which was thicker than the other two books in his hand and said to Count Theodore: "Now New Tower City has added a road construction team that can quickly build roads.

Tutor, which one is better, my road construction team or the Golden Oak Chamber of Commerce road construction team, we will know through a test. "

Seeing Yan Xing speak so confidently, Count Theodore really considered finding another company to build the road.

The Golden Oak Chamber of Commerce's approach of adding insult to injury is indeed annoying.

Thinking back to the detection image of the Eternal Territory, Yan Xing's territory is indeed building a road.

It's better to let him give it a try.

Even if he loses to the Golden Oak Chamber of Commerce, at least it will let Gal know... that he is not the only choice.

The price can be kept low.

"Since you are so confident, I will arrange for your road construction team to compete with the Golden Oak Chamber of Commerce's road construction team. How long do you need to prepare?"

Yan Xing thought for a moment.

He took the time to return to the real world last night, and a batch of purchased vehicles and machinery arrived. We will seize the time to train the driver today and clean up the road roller. We should be able to hit the road tomorrow.

Didn't Eden say that he had a manor outside the city?

Get the vehicle to his place first and practice in his yard.

Yan Xing said to Count Theodore: "Tomorrow... my road construction team will be ready tomorrow."

Earl Theodore nodded: "The road construction cannot be delayed for too long. Originally, I planned to promise the Golden Oak Chamber of Commerce today to let them start construction immediately.

Now since you want to compete too...

I will inform Gal right away and ask him to prepare for the road construction competition tomorrow. "
