Be the Mayor From Today

Linen clothing can be used as a dowry, and it also represents a person's face. Whoever can buy new clothes is the envy of the neighbors.

Chapter 0088 The messenger of Lie Ma City.

Just when Liu Feng was thinking about how to generate income for Xiyang City, a small boat docked at the dock of Xiyang City.

"Why did Baron Omar take a fancy to this broken place?"

Lane, the messenger of Liema City, stood on the boat, frowning at the dilapidated pier, especially some wooden platforms that had collapsed.

Lane is an unpopular civil servant in the Baron of Omar, and he is also one of the local quasi-nobles. He used to be a knight, but now he was driven by Omar to become a civil servant.

The knights of this era were not nobles, they were a class between commoners and nobles, and they were also dubbed quasi-nobles, which was also what many commoners yearned for.

As long as knights make great achievements, they are very likely to become nobles, or like Liu Feng, to buy a baron title in the western land.

But few knights have savings. For example, all of Ryan's family property only has a dozen silver coins, which he has saved after struggling for 20 years.

The reason why Ryan was driven to Xiyang City was because he heard that there were major changes in Xiyang City, so let him take a look or try it out.

This is a chore. It is definitely a chore for Ryan, who is about to get married. He was not seen by Baron Omar in the first place. He was also removed from the title of knight and changed to be a clerk to deal with the noisy civilian disputes in the territory.

"It seems that the wedding date will be missed this time. I hope Lizao won't blame me." Ryan is not in a good mood. Anyone who is called on a business trip before marriage can only meet his lover if he is in a good mood.

He has never been able to integrate into the inner circle of Baron Omar, only in the outer circle, no, not even in the outer circle, he is just an ordinary clerk for salary work.

Before Baron Omar came, he was a well-known knight in Liema City, but now he is so low as a clerk doing chores. Is it because I refuted Baron Omar, a few unreliable things he did?

"Sir, are you going to enter Xiyang City now?" the servant asked diligently.

He didn't know why the master was in a daze, he only knew that the master was very kind to him, that Baron Omar had been suppressing the master, and everyone in Liema City knew that Knight Lane was too upright.

"Let's go, the advanced city, this remote town, where even the foot merchants rarely come in a year, actually said that there is a big change."

Ryan shook his head. He didn't know what the person who spread the news thought, or whether Baron Omar deliberately suppressed him and wanted to drive him out of Liema City.

"Tap tap..."

The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and Ryan turned his head to look and saw four or five carriages coming towards the pier.

"call…"

The coachman stopped the carriage, and Yingya jumped out of the carriage and shouted politely, "Everyone, help unload the salt, and I will give you two more steel coins."

"Can!"

Those coachmen hurriedly helped to carry the salt. For them, this was extra income and they didn't have to hand it over to the City Lord's Mansion.

Lane stared blankly at this scene, why was so much salt transported from Xiyang City? Can't common people even buy salt?

Curious, Ryan came to Yingya and asked, "Excuse me, why did you take all the salt away?"

"Are you from out of town?" Ying Ya said with a wry smile.

"Yes, I just came today!"

"You'll know when you go to Xiyang City." Ying Ya said with a downcast, it was a sad thing, so why bother to mention it again.

Ryan looked at Yingya who was walking away, confused. He turned his head to look in the direction of Xiyang City, with a little curiosity in his eyes. Could it be that the nobles of Xiyang City are too cruel? Even the salt merchants can't stay?

"Let's go!" Ryan walked towards Xiyang City with his servant.

After walking for more than ten minutes, they saw the wheat fields on both sides of the road and couldn't help nodding their heads.

"The wheat is growing very well. It looks like it can be harvested in four or five days." Lane said with a smile, whoever sees a wheat field will be very happy.

"Tap tap..."

The sound of horses' hooves sounded, and the two of Ryan quickly hid by the roadside, and what they saw were the carriages carrying salt.

Far away, before Lane could speak, a coachman shouted, "Two foreigners, do you want to take a carriage?"

Ryan was taken aback, are the people in Xiyang City so hospitable? You actually asked passersby if they wanted to take a carriage?

"Yes!" Ryan responded quickly, there is still some distance from here to Xiyang City.

The coachman stopped the carriage and said with a big smile, "Here we go to Xiyang City, because we are out of the city, one person wants three steel coins, if you want, come up!"

The Lord of the City said that when you carry foreign guests, you must first explain it clearly, otherwise you will think it is a good intention to carry them.

"Steel coin? What is this?" Ryan froze for a while and asked with a frown, "Did you say it wrong? Is it a copper coin?"

"Hey, are you robbery? It takes three copper coins to take a person to Xiyang City?" The servant was dissatisfied when he heard it. His monthly salary was only 60 copper coins, which was only after so many years with the master.

"No, you have misunderstood the guests. It is a steel coin. One copper coin can be exchanged for ten steel coins. It is a new currency invented by the Lord of the City."

When the driver mentioned the Lord of the City, his nostrils were raised by one point. The commoners of Xiyang City like steel coins the most, because they can buy a lot of things and they are very convenient to use.

"It's actually like this?" Ryan's eyes widened. This was something he never expected. He quickly took out a copper coin and asked, "Can we exchange steel coins?"

"Of course you can, come up first." The coachman urged, he had to go back to report, and then let the horse rest for half an hour.

Ryan took the servants into the carriage, handed over a copper coin, and recovered four steel coins.

"This is the steel coin?" Ryan held a steel coin and observed it carefully.

The number 1 above is a symbol that he has not seen before, but the word 'horn' is familiar to him. This is the front of the steel coin, and behind it is a beautiful picture of wheat ears.

"hiss…"

Ryan took a deep breath, and this coinage technology is already even more powerful than the kingdom's coinage technology.

He is now more and more curious about the situation in Xiyang City, especially the city owner who can invent this steel coin.

"The coachman, aren't you afraid of being known by your master when you collect money from passengers on the way?" the servant sat next to the coachman and asked in a low voice.

"Why should you be afraid? This is what we do in the passenger-carrying business." The driver shook his head amusedly. In the past few days, he has carried many people who asked this kind of question.

It's really rare and strange. Now the children in Xiyang City know that there are taxis that can be used to ride. As long as they spend two steel coins, they can go anywhere in Xiyang City.

Chapter 0089 Information errors.

Ryan also heard the servant's question, and that's what made him frown. The business of using a carriage to carry people, plus the steel coins in his hand, the combination of the two is really a good business, can think of this The person who came up with the idea is a genius.

Along the way, Ryan could see many civilians carrying logs and stones, all with smiles on their faces.

This kind of smile can only be seen by Ryan when the commoners have a good harvest, but now everyone is working, but it really surprised him to see such a smile.

That's what made Ryan even more curious, and he didn't have any resentment at the beginning. After all, staying in Liema City was also crowded out, so it's good to go out to relax.
