Starting Today, I'll Work as a City Lord.

"Master, the progress of the work outside has all stopped. This year's heavy snow is a bit urgent." Nicole made a cup of hot tea for Liu Feng.

"Stop, just stop. We can't let them work in the heavy snow. It's too late to work in this kind of weather. It's better to let them rest for a few days." Liu Feng said lightly.

"Master is kind." Nicole said softly.

"Ha... When did you learn to say this?" Liu Feng rolled his eyes. In this kind of horrible weather, it takes less than half an hour to go to work, and people will freeze, especially in this era. so bad.

"Hee hee..." Nicole stuck out her tongue.

"An Li! How much cloth is there in the weaving workshop?" Liu Feng turned to look at An Li who was playing poker.

After three days of heavy snowfall, many things were put on hold, and An Li also relaxed for a day or two, and now she is fighting against the landlord with Mina and Wei Ya.

"Come on, Avery takes the seat." Enli immediately stood up, handed the playing cards to Avery who was sitting next to her, and went to the desk to look through the notepad.

"Me?" Avery took the playing cards in a daze, and then looked at Mina and Wei Ya with orange eyes vigilantly. Now she is the landlord.

"Master, there are [-] pieces of cloth in the warehouse, and the daily output is more than [-] pieces." An Li read quickly.

"The quantity is just enough for the first shipment. Solo's caravan is coming." Liu Feng heaved a sigh of relief. The first shipment he wanted was at least [-] horses.

He also knew that due to the recent snowy weather, some people were transferred to the workshop to help, which resulted in a shipment of [-] pieces of cloth a day.

"It should take a while, and the heavy snow may be a few days later." An Li looked at the date and said, "Fortunately, the Youshui River is not frozen, otherwise they would not be able to come."

Liu Feng nodded. This is indeed a blessing. The rapid flow of the Youshui River makes the water surface not so easy to freeze, like those small tributary rivers that have already been frozen.

"So, what about the ceramic jars? How many are there now?" Liu Feng asked the second concern.

"About [-] have been stored, and more than [-] canned fish have been produced one after another. The seasonings in the shed have been sent to the fish workshop in the past few days before mass production begins." An Li reported.

"Well! Let them control the sealing, and the ceramic jars must be rinsed with boiling water." Liu Feng stared and said that these foods that have been stored for a long time must not go wrong in any link, otherwise they will deteriorate and rot.

"Yes!" An Li wrote down.

"Here is a way to pickle green vegetables, let them try to make some, especially cucumber and cabbage."

Liu Feng picked up a document from the desktop and handed it to An Li. He thought that there must be no green vegetables in the capital now. If he brought some pickled vegetables to sell in the capital, the price might not be worse than canned fish.

"Okay!" An Li took the document, and she had to follow the progress. The more she helped the young master with government affairs, the more she realized how big the young master's layout was.

"There are still too few people!" Liu Feng turned around, looked out of the window, and sighed, "It would be great if you gave me tens of thousands of people now!"

With tens of thousands of people, he can fully bloom, and the output of some goods can be doubled several times. It is not a dream to make money every day. The most important thing is that the surrounding cities will be affected by him, or they will be attached to his city and embark on a rapid development. roads; or rest on our laurels and become barren landowners.

At that time, Liu Feng will not need a single soldier, and the surrounding cities will regard him as the master. This is an economic war.

Thinking about it, there should be some city owners who can't sit still. Liu Feng's city has nearly [-] people. In this era, it can be regarded as a large city with a population of about [-].

"I know there are a lot of people in one place." After Avery hit a pair of aces, she suddenly turned her head and said, "However, they are all slaves, and many people should freeze to death now."

A gleam of sadness flashed in Avery's eyes. She thought of the struggling slaves outside the city of Blade's Edge. In the past three days of heavy snow, many people must have been frozen to death.

But she knew that this was impossible. No city would take in slaves so generously. No, it should be that no noble would take in a large number of slaves in winter. of wheat porridge.

If it's spring and summer, I'm afraid that the more slaves the better, it means free labor and can help with a lot of work, as long as you pay for a bite of food, this is the most cost-effective deal.

"Oh? Slave? Does it have an owner?" Liu Feng raised his eyebrows and asked with interest, "What's the price?"

If it is cheap, he can buy some slaves back, and then come up with a reward and punishment system, such as working for him for a few years, and he can restore the free people.

"It's a master, but it doesn't cost money, as long as you can take them away." Avery said in a deep voice, and threw out a big trump card, ending the fight against the landlord.

"What do you mean?" Liu Feng frowned, it sounded like the slave owner didn't care about the slaves.

"Blade's Edge City is a city of slavery. Some worthless civilians and orc slaves will be driven out of the city, and they will be left to fend for themselves. At most, they will distribute a little wheat porridge." Avery briefly introduced The situation in Blade City.

"How many people are there?" Liu Feng's black eyes flickered.

"Probably about a thousand people, some of them should have died in the past few days." Avery pursed her lips and said.

"Thousand people?" Liu Feng nodded, frowning and thinking, the number of one thousand people is quite a lot, and he was calculating the amount of wheat stored.

"..." Avery looked at Liu Feng with a bit of disappointment. Sure enough, no one would take in slaves for free?Don't these nobles know?As long as they survive the winter, can slaves help with work?

But she is not qualified to say anything to blame, because the tragedy of slaves outside Blade City was caused by Diss, who is also an orc.

Chapter 0252 population is the greatest resource.

The study was very quiet. Everyone looked at Liu Feng who was frowning and thinking. They all knew what Liu Feng was planning now.

"An Li, if there are [-] more people in the territory, will they be able to support them when the grain is harvested next year?" Liu Feng suddenly turned to An Li and asked, before making a decision, some specific values ​​still need to be referred to.

"Oh, let me check." An Li nodded, and quickly flipped through the notepad.

The daily food consumption in Xiyang City will be recorded, and then submitted once every three days. This is a special request from Liu Feng, so that we can monitor the changes in the food in Xiyang City, which can often detect what is happening in Xiyang City at the first time. Variety.

Avery's orange eyes widened, she looked at Liu Feng, what's going on now?Are you going to take over slaves from Blade City?

"Master, there are still seventeen full granaries." An Li flipped through the notepad and described the data, "The wheat sold in the big market these days is very little, only about one-twentieth of what it used to be. Now the calculation of the population consumption of Xiyang City..."

An Li took out a pen, quickly calculated on the notepad, and said after a while, "By the time of next year's grain harvest, another [-] people can support it."

"Five thousand people?" Liu Feng frowned. He was dissatisfied with the number, and said in a deep voice, "Did you remove the wine making part?"

"It has already been removed, and I have budgeted [-]% of the emergency food." An Li said crisply, the emergency food was taught to her by Liu Feng in preparation for the war.

"Very good!" Liu Feng praised, and fell into deep thought again. Originally, he had prepared wheat grain for [-] people, but some more people joined Xiyang City on the way, and with the need to make wine, etc., can it really be What was used was the rations of about [-] people.
