Otherworld Management Manual

Chapter 180: miss each other

Buck City is different from other cities Zhang Feng has seen.

In addition to the retro, tall, and charming buildings in the city, the residents here also show a strong sense of self-confidence.

This kind of confidence is exuded from the inside out. It is a bit exaggerated to say that the nostrils look at people, but the commoners here walk with their heads held high, unlike other cities, who are timid and afraid to look at people.

As Wangdu people, of course they also have this capital.

For example, welfare benefits, they are a lot better than residents of other cities. Some people even said that even if they want to eat in the king, they are better than ordinary people in some remote towns!

Zhang Feng didn't know whether this was true or not, but he did see a lot of beggars.

As soon as they entered the city, there was a group of beggars on the roadside in the city ready to besiege them, but Zhang Feng came in a small steam car.

This saved Zhang Feng a lot of trouble, and he asked Abe curiously.

"Is there any beggars in the capital?"

Abe asked strangely:

"Shouldn't the capital have beggars?"

"...My Hongye City doesn't have..."

"..."

Feeling that Tian'er was a little dead, Zhang Feng coughed and changed the subject.

"Do you know where the busiest commercial center in the city is?"

"Commercial center..."

Having been with Zhang Feng for a long time, Abe has come to understand new terms like Zhang Feng that pop up from time to time.

"If you mean the place with the most merchants and the most shops, it should be not far ahead."

Abe pointed forward.

"That's good, let's go and have a look."

"Ok."

In fact, in Baker Kingdom, or in this world, business has always existed, but it has never been valued.

Especially when the rulers are nobles, most of them despise merchants, but they have to need merchants.

After all, businessmen are hated, but gold coins are not hated!

As a result, the relationship between merchants and nobles became more complicated.

Ordinary aristocrats don't publicly say what kind of property they have, they think it's not on the table. But in private, they let businessmen help them work and make money.

It may seem that the businessman is unlucky, but it is not.

Because the name of the noble is a natural umbrella, if they cooperate with the noble, although they will pay a part of the benefits, it will also save a lot of trouble.

It's a win-win for both parties.

At this time, the commercial center of Buck City was like this.

"This is the XX industry of the XX Marquis..."

Whenever Zhang Feng looked at some stores, Abe would answer Zhang Feng.

I didn't feel much at first, but after listening to it, Zhang Feng realized that almost all the industries here are monopolized by the nobles of Buck City!

There are no independent businessmen at all, even those who came back from Hongye City before, those in the Hongye Business Alliance, are backed by various nobles.

If this is the case, it would be a little difficult for Zhang Feng to open a store in Buck City and to establish the reputation of Hongye City.

Although the market here is large, there is still a scope. As long as Zhang Feng participates and gets a share of the pie, some people's interests will definitely be damaged.

And this damage is definitely not small, Zhang Feng is still very confident about his own store.

If everyone is a businessman, then Zhang Feng has nothing to be afraid of. As long as he acts within the rules, no one can do anything to Zhang Feng.

But it's different if there are nobles behind them, and nobles won't tell you the rules.

In other words, the rules are set by the nobles. How to say the rules is not to look at their mouths.

If Zhang Feng's business is small, no one would take this effort to deliberately target Zhang Feng, but as long as Zhang Feng is serious, Zhang Feng himself does not know how big the business can be!

He is just a small foreign noble, even if he is an earl now, he is still a foreigner.

Those nobles will definitely not let Zhang Feng grow up unscrupulously.

After all, this is a matter of personal interests, and no one will give in.

Unless, Zhang Feng has an identity that they can't afford to offend!

And Buck City, or the entire Buck Kingdom, seems to be only a few people who can make these nobles fear.

Thinking of the queen who gave Zhang Feng a good sense today, and thinking of Anne's identity, Zhang Feng felt that if he could hug the queen's thigh... Wouldn't it be very tricky?

"You say, if I want to buy these stores, will I be rejected?"

Zhang Feng asked Abe.

"As long as the price you offer satisfies the other party, it will naturally not refuse."

"I mean, I probably bought a lot of stores..."

Zhang Feng was a little embarrassed.

"How many?"

"Start here."

Zhang Feng pointed to the place where he just came, and then pointed to the end of the road.

"...You, don't you want to buy this street!"

"Well, although it feels a bit small, it can be used if you make do with it."

"..."

Abe looked at Zhang Feng speechlessly, this is human words!

Buying the next street is not enough?

"It's not cheap to buy this street."

Abe always felt that Zhang Feng was bragging.

This is the best place for business in Buck City. If you buy a street here, the price is absolutely sky-high!

"I know, but I think I can still afford it."

"Even if you can afford it, if you buy so much at once, you will definitely run into some trouble."

Although Abe doesn't know how to do business, he still knows these basic things. Zhang Feng is so generous all of a sudden, and he is still an outsider, so he will definitely attract attention and even encounter some troubles.

"I understand, I won't buy it for the time being, let's take a look."

Zhang Feng nodded.

Seeing this, Abe said nothing more.

Zhang Feng's small steam car attracted countless people's onlookers along the way. Zhang Feng had nothing to do about it, but in reverse, it was a good thing. Zhang Feng estimated that it would take three days at most, and their news would definitely spread. All over Buck City.

Because he promised to buy things for the beast-eared girls, Zhang Feng parked the car in a corner, and then Abe called a few patrolling soldiers to help guard.

For shopping, whether it is a human woman or an orc woman, she is very interested.

Although Zhang Feng felt that the things they bought were useless, but he couldn't bear their happiness, so Zhang Feng left them alone.

As for those envious glances that were frequently cast, Zhang Feng naturally ignored them.

Fox Erniang and the others did not disguise, and directly exposed the faces of orcs. Anyway, they came here openly and did not need to be sneaky.

The people of Buck City were very curious about the orcs. They had only heard of them, but it was the first time they had actually seen them. If it wasn't for the golden royal knight, Abe, they would have been surrounded by onlookers.

"Zhang Feng, I don't want to go shopping!"

Everywhere she went, she was noticed by people. After a long time, Hu Erniang couldn't stand it, and she suddenly lost interest.

Looking at the fox ear girl who was pulling her sleeves and acting coquettishly, Zhang Feng asked the crowd:

"what about you?"

"No more shopping, no more shopping!"

"Okay, then let's go find a place to live."

"Count Zhang Feng, Her Royal Highness has prepared a place for you, you don't need to be so troublesome."

Abbe said suddenly.

"Huh? That feeling is good, where is it?"

"I'll take you there!"

This place is not very far from the commercial center. It was originally the home of an earl. Later, after the earl died, the family was not good enough. .

This is a small three-story castle, the house is not big, but there is a large yard, the yard is overgrown with weeds. Zhang Feng still likes it very much, after all, it doesn't cost money!

The servants that the queen provided for Zhang Feng have not come yet, and Abe wanted Zhang Feng and other servants to clean up.

But it was rejected by Zhang Feng, a servant or something. To be honest, Zhang Feng was not worried about what others gave. Besides, he wouldn't be able to stay for a few days, so it was unnecessary.

Mother Hu Erniang took the initiative to take care of things like cleaning.

Then Zhang Feng felt that there were phantoms in front of him. When he drove to Hu Erniang again, the weeds in the yard were neatly stacked on top of each other, and the ground was flat. If he had not seen it with his own eyes, Zhang Feng would have unbelievable.

"Zhang Feng, how is it!"

Hu Erniang's face was not blushing or panting, her little hands were behind her back, and she asked Zhang Feng for credit.

"awesome!"

Zhang Feng touched Hu Erniang's head and expressed his sincere admiration.

"Whee!"

Being praised, Hu Erniang suddenly narrowed her eyes.

Mao Erniang looked at her with admiration. She envied not only Hu Erniang being praised, but also Hu Erniang's strength.

This kind of strength is the existence she needs to look up to. She doesn't understand why Hu Erniang is so powerful!

Niu Jiao Niang was also amazed at the strength of Hu Er Niang, but she would not show it. After all, the last time she was bullied by Hu Er Niang was still vivid in her mind.

However, this also aroused her dissatisfaction, Niu Jiao Niang silently picked up the mop and pushed open the door that had fallen into a layer of ashes.

...

...

Buck City, the Royal Palace.

In a luxurious palace, the queen looked at the small mirror in her hand and couldn't put it down.

"Lord Queen Mother."

Annie changed into a more casual pink dress and walked in.

Because the queen hadn't seen Annie for a long time, she wanted Annie to talk with her before the banquet started, so Annie naturally dared not not listen, not to mention the first time she went away, she also missed the mother who loved her very much.

"Huh? Annie, who made your dress? It's so beautiful!"

Seeing Annie's pink clothes, the queen didn't care to admire her beautiful face. She put down the small mirror and waved to Annie.

Annie walked over obediently.

"It's not made to order, it's clothes sold by Hongye City!"

"Huh? This clothes are also sold by Hongye City?"

The queen touched the fabric of the dress, it was very smooth and soft, no worse than the expensive custom made by her.

And this style is more in line with the queen's aesthetics. She didn't think her clothes were ugly at first, but today I saw Zhang Feng's clothes and Annie's clothes, and instantly felt that my money was not worth it. .

"Yes, Hongye City sells many kinds of clothes, and they are available at all price points, and they are all very beautiful! Guess how much money I have for this set of clothes?"

Annie smiled mischievously.

"This fabric, this style... should it cost 20 gold coins? Or 30?"

For the people of their royal family, it is normal to buy a piece of clothing with dozens of gold coins, although at this price, it is possible to buy a good war horse.

"No, no, it's not that expensive!"

Annie shook her head again and again.

At first she was surprised by these high-quality and cheap clothes, and now she also wants to surprise her mother.

"Could it be 15 gold coins... It can't be just ten gold coins!"

"Hehe, I only spent 10 silver coins on this suit!"

Annie spoke to the queen with some pride.

"Ten really—wait, silver? Princess Anne, are you sure you're right?"

"Of course, the wise Princess Anne would not make such a low-level mistake!"

The queen ignored Anne, who was a little embarrassed, and said in shock:

"10 silver coins... how is this possible, with this fabric material, the cost alone is more than 10 silver coins!"

"I don't know about that, anyway, it's 10 silver coins, and Zhang Feng is so shrewd, he can definitely make money!"

"This clothes is also Zhang Feng's business?"

"Yes!"

After listening to Anne's words, the queen was speechless for a long time.

She had heard from Annie before that Zhang Feng had a lot of business in Hongye City, such as taverns, hotels, bathhouses, etc.

Now I didn't expect Zhang Feng to even have a tailor business.

"Also, my clothes aren't the cheapest, they can be bought with the cheapest silver coin, but I don't like that style, so I don't wear them."

"1 gold coin..."

The queen was completely speechless.

No matter how remote this Red Leaf City is, it is still in the Buck Kingdom. The price is too outrageous!

"Oh, by the way, mother, I also bought a lot of clothes. I heard Abe say that if you sell the clothes of Hongye City to our capital, it seems that you can earn some gold coins!"

Looking at the somewhat naive Princess Anne, the queen shook her head, not just a little, but a lot, okay?

You must know that the queen has a very high vision. She thinks things that are worth dozens of gold coins must also be valued by other nobles. If you can sell clothes that cost only dozens of silver coins to them, the profit will be hundreds of times. !

huh~

I don't want to know, I'm shocked when I think about it!

"Annie, how many of these clothes do you have?"

"Not a lot, probably less than a hundred..."

After all, there are not many people, and it is not easy to get a lot of things. Annie doesn't buy a lot of clothes and so on.

"One hundred pieces are a bit short..."

The queen thought silently, even if she could earn a few thousand gold coins, she would not like it.

Seeing that Annie was a little ignorant, the queen didn't say much. After all, Annie didn't know anything about business. If she was, she would definitely buy all the gold coins for clothes. Profit!

Zhang Feng!

Zhang Feng's face suddenly appeared in the queen's mind.

These clothes are all related to Zhang Feng. If you can "buy in" from Zhang Feng... Wouldn't you be able to earn a lot of pocket money?

Although she is expensive as a queen, she is not a king after all, and it is impossible to use the gold coins in the treasury. There are not many small treasuries in her own hands.

Even the king cannot use the gold coins in the treasury at will, otherwise the ministers will know about it, and it will definitely be endless.

Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, even the queen is no exception, she also wants to make a little money!

...

...

The dinner party for the princess came as scheduled.

Although it was only a small-scale dinner, no matter how small it was, it was hosted by the king himself, so naturally it couldn't be done hastily.

"The palace is so big!"

It was the first time Zhang Feng saw the palace of another world.

The palace of the Buck Kingdom and Buck City are in the same style: tall, simple, and very charming.

The entire palace is actually a huge castle. The area may be as big as that of the city lord's mansion in More City, but it is more refined and more beautiful than the city lord's mansion in More City.

In other words, they are not of the same level. One looks like a random piece made by a child, and the other looks like a master crafted meticulously. There is no comparison at all.

Zhang Feng also finally knew that the last time Delia said that the palace took two hundred years to build, it was not a vain name!

"Count Zhang Feng, this way, please follow me."

"good!"

Abe, who was wearing a golden knight armor, led the way, and Zhang Feng and Mao Erniang walked behind.

Zhang Feng was wearing an exquisite black gentleman's suit, and with his good figure, even Abe couldn't help but look at him a few more times, and the cat-ear girl was wearing a black and white maid outfit lent to her by the wolf-ear girl.

In the words of Lang Erniang, when she is out, Mao Erniang belongs to Zhang Feng, and she can't be ashamed of Zhang Feng!

Fortunately, Zhang Feng didn't tell the wolf-eared girl that it was a maid outfit.

However, even the maid outfit looks better than most of the clothes in the other world, at least it fits Zhang Feng's aesthetic, that is, if the cat's ear girl's Wangzai buns can be two sizes bigger.

Speaking of which, Zhang Feng was planning to bring these beast-eared mothers to the banquet.

But Hu Erniang said that the food in the palace was not delicious, so she might as well go shopping, so she refused. Zhang Feng didn't know why she knew that the food was not delicious, and the wolf-ear girl was naturally dragged by the fox-er girl to go shopping together.

Niu Niang is not interested in these things, saying that she is going to talk to Felix the Lion Beast in Hongye Steam No. 1.

In the end, Zhang Feng was left with the cat-ear girl.

In fact, Cat Erniang didn't want to go either. Her reason was very simple. Orcs are a cherished species in the human world. Most people are very curious. She doesn't like the feeling of being focused by others.

And what about a dinner party, what can you do with small fish!

But Zhang Feng did not give her a chance to refuse.

Zhang Feng looked at the cat-ear girl who was walking behind him and shrugged her ears. She touched her ears a little speechlessly, and said in a low voice:

"It's just a meal together, you don't like eating with me that much?"

"Um... ah no, I like it!"

Seeing Mao Erniang's insincere expression, Zhang Feng was so angry that his teeth hurt.

If he hadn't seen someone there, Zhang Feng would have to tie her up and spank her!

"The little fish is gone!"

Zhang Feng snorted coldly.

"No! Zhang Feng...Master~Master, don't!"

Cat Erniang immediately held Zhang Feng's arm and did not let go.

Now that I have been in contact with Zhang Feng for a long time, I know that Zhang Feng is still a gentleman, and she is not as timid as before. This kind of intimate action was not dared to do by Mao Er Niang before.

"It's not okay to be coquettish!"

Zhang Feng's face was indifferent, but he almost laughed out loud in his heart.

This little cat is too deceitful and too bullying.

Especially looking at the aggrieved Mao Er Niang, Zhang Feng always had an indescribable sense of joy.

Abe didn't look back, but just based on these three words, she knew what happened, she glanced at Zhang Feng speechlessly, why didn't she realize that Zhang Feng likes to bully little girls so much! In the future, I have to tell Princess Anne to be careful about this Zhang Feng!

The palace was very big, and Abe led the two of them to a splendid hall.

There are already many people in the hall, both men and women. No matter how I speak or dress, I tell you all the time that I am a gentleman and a lady.

With his experience, Zhang Feng could tell at a glance that most of these people were pretending.

But this has nothing to do with Zhang Feng, he is going to take the cat ear girl and sit down in a random corner.

But as soon as they came, these nobles with very sensitive ears and eyes immediately discovered Zhang Feng.

To be precise, the cat-ear lady behind Zhang Feng was discovered.

Today, many people know about the news about the orcs entering the city. Originally, they didn't take it seriously. After all, it's not that they didn't pass through the orcs, and they even rolled over the sheets!

But this beautiful young cat orc, they seldom, or rather, never met.

In an instant, all eyes fell on Cat Er Niang's side.

"What a beautiful orc lady!"

Everyone subconsciously spoke, no matter how she dresses or looks, Cat Erniang can totally be the word "beautiful".

Cat Erniang was very sensitive, she subconsciously grabbed Zhang Feng's hand and silently hid behind Zhang Feng.

Only then did the nobles realize that there was a handsome but handsome Zhang Feng beside Mao Erniang.

Some people smiled at Zhang Feng friendly, some dismissed it, and some ignored Zhang Feng directly and looked directly at Mao Erniang, making no secret of their desires.

Although Zhang Feng experienced this kind of scene for the first time, he didn't feel any discomfort. He secretly recorded those who were hostile to him and possessive towards the cat ear girl in a small notebook.

"These people are horrible!"

The cat-ear girl whispered softly.

"When I saw you for the first time, weren't you very courageous, and you were even afraid?"

Zhang Feng said with a smile.

"Humph!"

As soon as Zhang Feng mentioned her embarrassment, Mao Erniang suddenly felt that she should not talk to Zhang Feng.

When she saw Zhang Feng for the first time, she kept thinking about running away and tried everything she could, but in the end she still didn't escape Zhang Feng's hand, which was a shame for her life!

Seeing the cat-eared girl pouting, Zhang Feng felt even happier.

After Abe brought Zhang Feng here, he left. Zhang Feng stretched out his hand. Although Mao Er Niang was very upset, she still gave Zhang Feng her hand obediently. Zhang Feng led her to turn left and right, and found someone who had no one. corner.

Zhang Feng obviously didn't want to disturb him, but he didn't expect some people to come, and what he didn't expect was that these people were all those beautiful ladies!

"Hello, are you Baron Zhang Feng?"

A woman wearing a long purple dress, brown hair, brown eyes, and delicate facial features, although there are faint freckles on her face, came over. Judging by her appearance, Zhang Feng estimated that she was about twenty-seven or eighteen years old.

"Yes."

Seeing that the beautiful lady in front of her was very polite, Zhang Feng nodded.

As for the fact that he is already a baron but an earl, since the other party does not know, Zhang Feng did not explain too much.

The other party immediately asked:

"My name is Jenny. I heard that you came from the northernmost part of Buck Kingdom? What is there in the northernmost part, I have never been there before, so I'm a little curious!"

"North, it's almost the same as here, mostly snow, but it's colder in the north, and the ice on the river is thicker..."

Zhang Feng didn't know what the other party's purpose was for the time being, but for the sake of seeing the other party so politely, Zhang Feng didn't mind chatting with her.

Because Zhang Feng has done sales before and his performance is not bad, his eloquence is very good. It didn't take long for the two to chat hot, like old friends for many years.

It wasn't until a woman coughed that Jenny reluctantly got up and left.

"Sorry, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do and need to leave for a while..."

"It's okay, you go to work!"

Zhang Feng smiled understandingly.

Seeing Zhang Feng's warm and sunny smile, Jenny felt that her legs were a little weak, but she was also a person who obeyed the rules, so she could only hold back and slowly disappear from Zhang Feng's sight.

And Zhang Feng didn't understand what the other party meant, another beautiful woman walked up to Zhang Feng.

"Hello, Baron Zhang Feng, my name is Kama..."

"Hello……"

And Jenny seems to have started. After Jenny and Kama, many women came to chat with Zhang Feng, as if someone had set a time for them. Everyone chatted with Zhang Feng about the same time. Individuals are still unfulfilled, but they have to leave.

Although Zhang Feng appeared to be calm on the surface, he was actually very curious, but these women obviously didn't know what to say, and Zhang Feng didn't ask uninterestingly.

During this time, in addition to the steady stream of beautiful women, Zhang Feng received murderous looks from countless men, which made her very puzzled.

Is it because of these women?

But this is not my initiative!

Soon, it seemed that a big man had arrived, and many nobles went out to greet him, and Zhang Feng was relieved.

"Master, drink water~"

Cat Er Niang winked and brought a glass of beer to Zhang Feng, she had already brought herself into her role.

"Guru~"

Although it is not very drinkable, it can be regarded as a thirst quencher.

"good!"

Zhang Feng touched Cat Erniang's ear, and whispered beside her ear:

"Go back and reward you with a small dried fish."

"Yeah!"

Hearing the dried fish, the cat ear girl clenched her small fist excitedly, and even saliva was about to flow out.

The dried fish that Zhang Feng gave her was completely different from those fish, and it tasted very good! I don't know, they are both fish, why the difference is so big after drying!

Even Cat Er Niang is thinking, will she have to dry some small fish in the future... But this is a matter of the future, and now I have to quickly serve the uncle Zhang Feng!

Can you get a small dried fish with a glass of wine?

Cat Er Niang seems to have seen the scene of returning home at night and being submerged by small dried fish.

Although the dinner party has not officially started, there are already snacks.

Zhang Feng is going to taste the difference between the dim sum of the palace and other places. It shouldn't be so bad, right?

"Help me get a pastry to taste."

"Huh? Windsor?"

Just shouted twice, and found that Cat Erniang was in a daze.

"The rewarded dried fish will be deducted!"

"Ah? No, I..."

Cat Erniang suddenly wanted to cry but had no tears, why didn't she slow down a little bit, my little fish!

At this time, Abe did not know when he appeared beside Zhang Feng.

"Count Zhang Feng, you are very welcome."

Seeing Abe, Zhang Feng said speechlessly:

"What's the situation, why are so many women running towards me?"

Originally, I wanted to complain casually, but I didn't expect Abe to really know.

"Because every time the king holds a banquet, many nobles will come. Some are already married, some have lost their husbands or wives, and many are single all the time. Those single nobles focus on other single people. , after all, those who can participate in the king's banquet, their backgrounds, etc., have been screened, and the rest depends on whether the two parties can be satisfied..."

Listening to Abe's chatter, Zhang Feng finally understood that the feelings just now were all older single women and little widows!

"It's also a trouble to look too handsome!"

Abe knew what handsome meant. She wanted to refute it, but she stared at Zhang Feng and seemed to be unable to refute it.

"But it's a bit strange. In their eyes, I am a 'Baron' after all, a little baron who has come from a long way, has no power, no power and no gold coins. Why do they care so much about me? Is it really because of my appearance that kills everything? "

Zhang Feng always felt that there should be no such superficial people.

"...But they have money, power and gold coins."

Abe spoke quietly.

"Okay. A bunch of shallow women!"

Zhang Feng shrugged.

He wanted to find a thigh to hold in Buck City, so that he could do some small business with peace of mind, but Zhang Feng didn't plan to put himself in it.

Besides, if you want to hold the thigh, you have to hold the thickest one. These passionate beauties are obviously a bit different from the candidates in Zhang Feng's mind. For example, the queen is very good.

There is a saying, what to think, what to come.

As soon as I thought of the queen, I saw the well-dressed queen and Princess Anne, surrounded by a group of nobles, came all the way.

When Zhang Feng saw the queen, he was thinking, do you want to find an excuse and send a small gift to brush his presence in front of the queen.

But unexpectedly, when the queen saw Zhang Feng, her eyes lit up and she walked directly towards Zhang Feng.

Looking at the fiery eyes of the queen, Zhang Feng had just seen it on that group of ladies.

"No, no... Does the queen mean that to me too? Do I promise? Or promise - bah bah bah! Promise a hammer! The king knows, I'm afraid the whole Buck Kingdom can't tolerate it I am!"

Facing the hot-eyed queen, Zhang Feng suddenly felt like he wanted to run away.

Yesterday was a bit unlucky. When I got to the door of the house, I just paid and got off the car, and before I took the suitcase, the taxi driver left with a swish...

The luggage in the car is not very expensive, but the most comfortable keyboard I use is in the box...

After calling the police, the police uncle made the tireless calls, and the police lady patiently adjusted the monitoring. After a long day of work, I finally found the driver today and took my luggage back. Thank you very much to the police uncle and the police lady!

Kudos to the People's Police!

Finally, I would like to remind everyone again that when you take a taxi, when you get off the bus, you must pay after taking your things, and you must remember the license plate number!
