Become the city lord from today
Chapter 42
When Liu Feng came to the living room, his eyelids twitched as he looked at Tori's bloody mouth. Thinking of the report Niu Ben gave him just now, he couldn't help but have the urge to laugh.
"Mr. Tory, please have a seat."
Liu Feng waved to Tori, who stood up and saluted, to sit down, and ordered some more refreshments.
"Thank you Baron Liu Feng!"Tori performed a courtesy again, then slowly sat down, and accidentally pulled the corner of his mouth, which made his face tremble in pain.
Tori looked eagerly at the several exquisite pastries on the table, resisting the urge to do it. He cannot disgrace the nobles of Beifeng City
"This time, I would also like to thank Beifeng City for its generous donation and willingness to open up wheat for us to purchase."Liu Feng held the tea cup and took a sip. His behavior became more and more aristocratic.
"This is a trivial matter of mutual benefit and win-win, please don’t take it to heart, Baron Liu Feng."Tori said sternly.
Now he doesn't dare to underestimate this noble Liu Feng. From the time he entered the castle to now, all the details show that the other party's current living standard is very superior, at least better than that of the nobles in Beifeng City. Dozens of times.
As for the life of civilians, he didn't care about it at all. Aren't the untouchables just to support their nobles?
Think about the housekeeper named Niu Ben, who wears better clothes than him, and this Baron Liu Feng's clothes are even more noble, and the style is unprecedented.
"So, Mr. Tory, what's the important thing for you to come here this time?"
Liu Feng got straight to the point. He didn't have time to argue. There was a good show tonight, and he had to see some preparations in advance. The highlight was coming. Tori tried to sit up straight. Of course, in Liu Feng's view, he was all It's the waist
"Baron Liu Feng, my father, the Lord of Beifeng City, hopes that you can open the fur trade in Xiyang City. Before Liu
Feng could reply, Tori continued,"Of course, we in Beifeng City will continue to open wheat trading for you. The wheat in our Beifeng City has been piled up like a mountain, which can be enough for two years of consumption.""
Beifeng City is a city close to the river, so it has a large fleet and often trades with other cities. Wheat is the staple food of this world and one of the most important materials.
Beifeng City can have two years of wheat. Liu Feng believed it, but the fur trade reminded him of something, and he couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.
"oh? Fur trading, this is not a big problem, I can agree to it."
Liu Feng agreed. In addition to keeping warm and making clothes, the fur can also be made into leather armor, which is used in war.
Xiyang City is one of the cities closest to the Forbidden Mountains. There is nothing else in the Forbidden Mountains. , there are many wild beasts.
Hunters in the territory will hunt many wild beasts every year, and they will be skinned and sold. The skins will be tanned and then sold at a high price.
"real?"Tori was stunned. He thought he would have to pay some price to get the other party to agree, but he didn't expect that he would agree so easily.
"Mr. Tori, there is nothing else in Xiyang City, but it does have some superficial features. It can generate income for the residents, which is a good thing."
Liu Feng chuckled. The most important thing he didn't say was that he didn't like leather armor at all. He already had steel, so there was no need to make leather armor that was not durable.
Moreover, from this point of view, he also saw The way out of Beifeng City is not optimistic, and he actually comes directly to buy furs, like most nobles secretly purchase military supplies.
Tori frowned, he was wondering if there was a conspiracy, as long as he was a noble with some knowledge. , and even businessmen know the importance of furs.
No matter which city it is, it is forbidden to sell furs in large quantities, and some cities directly prohibit the sale and purchase of furs, and all the furs are collected by the city lords themselves.
Of course, the furs mentioned here are the kind Fur that can be made into leather armor, such as wild boar skin, rhinoceros skin, etc.
"Baron Liu Feng, do you have any requests?"Tori only thought of this, the other party had a request
"oh? Liu Feng was slightly startled, then raised the corner of his mouth,"Of course, we in Xiyang City need more wheat, and even some cattle, sheep, horses, etc., of course, just give some cubs.""
"that's it? ?"Tori was even more confused. He didn't quite understand such a request.
Young horses can understand it. They can be war horses when they grow up, but cattle and sheep are all slaughtered for meat.
Cattle are raised. How many months will it take to kill and skin them to make armor? It is better to buy other furs, such as wild boar skins.
Sheep fur is a good warm fur, but the meat is too fishy, and only those untouchables like it. eat
"Yes, that’s it!"
What Liu Feng learned was that they were all people who thought like Tori, even Niu Ben, who also said that beef was not very tasty.
So he almost died laughing. Cows are actually raised as pigs. Eat meat first, and then ask for some fur.
Liu Feng thought about the level of this period, they would do this, and he understood that the common people did not have horses or cattle at all, only manual planting.
Even iron tools were not widely spread in the era. , many people farm with hoes made of stones, and clear up wasteland one by one. The yield of wheat grown in this way is of course terribly low. How can people not starve to death?
In Liu Feng's territory, there is no shortage of fur, but this is the only shortage. There are three kinds of animals, not to mention cattle. There are only some inland. I heard that they were brought from far away and their numbers are very rare.
He wants to put a ring on the cattle, then turn them into plow cattle, and then put the plow on them. Get it out, add an iron hoe, and bring some improved seeds from the earth.
Next year, Liu Feng's territory will be able to completely say goodbye to famine, and there will no longer be a need to buy wheat from Beifeng City.
"Please collect it, ask for flowers, ask for evaluation votes, and ask for everything. I will send the contract quickly this afternoon."
