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

What she is most afraid of is that someone will take her goods and resell them. This is what worries her, and the impact is not very good.

"Ta Tata..."

At this time, there were footsteps outside the door, followed by a cold male voice, "It seems that Miss Darlene's business is doing quite well."

Darlene turned her head to look over, her blue eyes narrowed slightly, and she said in a deep voice, "Your Highness, Fourth Prince."

She didn't expect the fourth prince Ding Keda to come to the door in person, and now she understood that the matter was not easy to solve.

"Your Highness, Fourth Prince, why are you here?" Catherine frowned. She didn't like the smiling look of the chunky man in front of her, but she fully understood when she saw Kunzhan and Jesse behind her.

"Didn't I hear that there is a perfume? Come and take a look if you are curious." The fourth prince Ding Keda squinted his eyes and looked around, calmly said, "It seems that I am a step late? The perfume is sold out?"

"Yes, it's sold out." Catherine took a step forward, blocking Darlene behind her. The four princes clearly came with bad intentions.

"Yeah." The fourth prince nodded and glanced at Catherine, his eyes flashed a gloomy look. The Duke seemed to support the eldest prince a little bit, which made him feel unhappy, and he didn't even like Catherine as much as before.

"Miss Darlene, can you hand over the perfume producer?" The fourth prince looked at Darlene with a dark face, and said indifferently, "I just researched the method of making new perfume, but I didn't expect a traitor to make the new perfume. Perfume-making methods have stolen it."

"What?" Catherine stared at the fourth prince in disbelief with her golden eyes wide open, and she could say such shameless words.

"..." Darlene pursed her lips. The matter was beyond her imagination. The fourth prince seemed to be shameless, and he didn't care about the feelings of Catherine's father, the Duke, and planned to take it by force.

Just when the fourth prince Ding Keda was about to go further to persecute Darlena, a soft female voice came from outside the door, "Brother Fourth Prince, why are you here?"

"..." The fourth prince held back what he was about to say, with a hypocritical smile on his face, turned his head to look outside the door, and said with a slight smile, "I didn't expect little sister Lucy to come too, are you here to buy perfume?"

"Yes, I stopped by to see how Darlene's shop is doing." Princess Lucy looked at the fourth prince quietly with a soft smile on her face.

She came to cheer Darlene. In fact, she had already asked Jones to pay attention to the fourth prince. After Darlene gave her a bottle of perfume yesterday, she knew something would happen today.

"Unfortunately, the perfume is sold out, so I'll be leaving first." The fourth prince glanced at Darlene indifferently, knowing that he couldn't do anything today.

When he passed by Princess Lucy, he left a sentence, "Some things, it's better not to interfere, this is a warning from Brother Four."

"Maybe." Princess Lucy smiled lightly, reaching out to hold Jones beside her. As long as her father was still around, no one would dare to do anything to her.

Chapter 0428 The Mint.

Compared with the scheming king's capital, the remote place of Xiyang City is still so peaceful.

Some civilians have begun to take out their farm tools for repairs, and even civilians have been grinding stone tools throughout the winter, which is used to make farm tools.After all, spring is not far away, and many civilians are already preparing for spring planting.

In the study, Liu Feng was sitting at the desk, flipping through the report in his hand, which showed the financial flow of Xiyang City.The gold coins he brought back from Tengying City have largely alleviated the financial crisis in Xiyang City.

"Huh? Are there so many people depositing coins in the bank now?" Liu Feng was very surprised when he looked at the bank's deposit report.

Nicole, who was processing the financial statements with her head down, raised her head and said with a chuckle, "Master, there are too many civilian coins in Xiyang City now, and I feel that it is not safe to keep them at home. They will all be deposited in the bank."

She has been dealing with the financial situation of Xiyang City these days. She has carefully checked several stores and learned about the specific consumption situation of the common people in Xiyang City.

"Oh? Are you willing to deposit the coins in the bank? This is a good thing." Liu Feng's mouth slightly raised.

In fact, if he had started earlier, he would not have to go to Tengying City to participate in the auction at all.The money in the bank means that Liu Feng can mobilize more coins. In fact, there is room for movement, but the shortage of funds cannot be delayed for too long.

"Hee hee... It's all thanks to An Li, Wei Ya, and Teess. It was they who took the lead in depositing coins in the bank, which led some people to also deposit coins." Nicole chuckled softly. road.She glanced at the fox ear girl who was dozing off, it was too late last night to play around, and she was sleepy this morning.

"That's it." Liu Feng nodded, looking at the names on the top of the bank report.The first one was Enri, and the next ones were people they knew, like Tori, Ryan, Buff, and Sink.

The total number of people added up to more than [-], compared to Xiyang City, which has about [-] people, this number is very small.But those who can deposit coins into the bank have money to spare, and the bank also serves these people.

Regarding the money bank, Liu Feng is also in the plan. He also wants to promote the bank to other cities. At least the cities near Xiyang City should have a bank, and then promote the steel coins.

But now there are two difficulties. One is the opening of banks. No city will allow a business of storing coins to appear.No, those nobles didn't allow it, they wanted to keep the coins in their treasury.

In fact, this point can be solved slowly, such as through negotiation, or directly using economic invasion to control the fate of coins, so that those nobles dare not act rashly.

In other words, to lure those nobles to also deposit coins in coins, this will initially grasp the flow of the economy, and Liu Feng is already invincible innately.

The second difficulty lies in the casting of steel coins. The steel coins issued by Liu Feng are very exquisite, and with the ability of this era, they cannot be mass-produced at all.Even if it is mass-produced, the cost price is several times more expensive than the production of steel coins.In this case, it would be better to produce copper coins.

The reason for the production of steel coins is to stimulate consumption, so that many things that cannot be bought can be disassembled and bought to promote the flow of coins.

The only place where steel coins can be produced is Liu Feng's mint, which is a truly top-secret place, where all the staff live and eat.

The steel coins minted by the mint are the stamping machines brought by Liu Feng from the earth. They are the kind of external force stamping machines. A steel coin template.

"Nicole, how many parts of the stamping machine in the mint are broken?" Liu Feng turned his head and asked.

There are only five people who know this mint, and Nicole is one of them, and she is mainly responsible for communication.

"Master, about a hundred of them are broken, and there are more than [-] left in stock." Nicole said in a low voice.

"What about the amount of steel coins minted?" Liu Feng frowned. He had to go to the earth to transport another batch of parts, and the stamping force was too worn.

"There are more than [-] steel coins." Nicole said softly. Now there are only three people at the desk, plus a bear.

"No, it's still too little." Liu Feng shook his head, this amount is really too little, not enough for Xiyang City to digest by itself.

"Master, do you want to add another stamping machine?" Nicole suggested, she knew part of the master's plan, and the current minting speed would not be able to keep up with the progress.

"Okay, you can choose people, and you need people with clear details." Liu Feng paused, and said in a deep voice, "The number of people has increased, and we need five groups of people."

He will go back to Earth tonight to place an order and buy five stamping machines. Although they are all powered by animals, as long as they survive the winter, they will be driven by water power, and the coinage speed will increase several times.

"Yes." Nicole nodded earnestly. She needed to discuss this with Mina, who was also one of the people who knew about the Mint.

"Nicole, pick a few clever girls in the castle, and start teaching them how to print and typesetting. When the time comes, there will be a bank in Heishui City, and people will be needed to go to work." Liu Feng said slowly.
