Become the city lord from today

A major flood occurred in the lower reaches of Youshui River. The news has spread in the upper reaches. Many victims have poured into these cities, and victims have also poured into Beifeng City.

The Lord of Beifeng City stood on the city wall, looking gloomily at the refugees lining up outside the city to enter the city. There were hundreds of people in this wave, and it was already the third wave today.

"Approximately how many refugees are there in the city?"The Lord of Beifeng City said in a deep voice.

"It's big, with about 2,000 people."The knight said cautiously. He could tell that the Lord of the City was not very happy.

"Is there any trouble?"Beifeng City Lord said calmly, no one could tell what he was thinking.

"Some refugees stole wheat and were hanged in public."The knight said seriously.

"There are more and more refugees."Beifeng City Lord's fat face trembled as he looked at the refugees gathered at the city gate. If this continues, civilians will be robbed and smashed. Once a riot breaks out, his safety will be endangered.

"Lord City Lord, why don't you send knights to drive away the refugees?"The knight suggested, the city is very unsafe now, there are messy homeless people everywhere, and things like stealing and smashing happen from time to time.

"Humph, no need."The Lord of Beifeng City waved his hand and said indifferently,"Send people to send these refugees to Xiyang City. Isn't Liu Feng short of people? We send him some people for free."

He thought about the people from Xiyang City who came to borrow a boat a few days ago, and how ridiculous it was to save people. It made him think that Liu Feng had a brain twitch? Can the civilians in his territory afford it? Isn't it good to save coins? It's ridiculous that he has such a kind heart to save people.

"Is City Lord Liu Feng willing to accept these refugees?"The knight said hesitantly. He knew that the Lord of the City had a lot of objections to the Lord of Xiyang City, Liu Feng. The main reason was that Beifeng City was about to be vacated by Xiyang City.

"If you know how to harvest it, send some wheat to Xiyang City by the way. Liu Feng will definitely harvest it."The Lord of Beifeng City sneered. It would be better if he didn't accept it. He would spread rumors and make Liu Feng famous in the street.

He would like to see how Xiyang City can support so many people. It's only spring now and he has to wait for the harvest. It’s not until the autumn harvest. Even if you want to buy wheat, you have to go inland, where wheat is harvested twice a year, but you have to be prepared to be slaughtered.

The trade in Xiyang City has only started not long ago, unlike in the north. Fengcheng stores enough wheat to feed tens of thousands of people every year. After all, he is a wheat middleman and sells it at a higher price every time.

Who knows that a large population is good, but it must be able to support it. Moreover, raising so much waste is a waste of food. He would not stupidly give wheat to the refugees. Only the fool like the Lord of Xiyang City would do that. No matter how rich he is, it will not be ruined.

Anyway, his Wheat will no longer be sold to Xiyang City. He wants to see what Liu Feng does, but he actually puts his hands in Beifeng City. Is this because he is easy to bully?

"Lord City Lord, how much wheat do you want to send? I thought that the city lord was so generous and would give wheat to others.

"A thousand pounds of wheat."The Lord of Beifeng City smiled lightly and said

"Well……"The knight was stunned. A thousand kilograms is small. If you save some food, it can only feed a thousand people for two days. Isn't it too stingy to send this little wheat?

"how? Any questions?"The city lord looked over with squinted eyes, his eyes full of murderous intent.

"No, no problem."The knight said excitedly, the city lord has been a little moody recently.

"Get ready, I will go to Xiyang City together tomorrow."Beifeng City Lord said lightly, he missed the delicious food in Zuixiao Tower, and he also wanted to see Xiyang City Lord's jokes.

"The subordinates went to make arrangements immediately."The knight saluted, turned around and walked down the city wall.

The knight stood under the city wall, turned to look at the city lord, sighed silently, and murmured to himself,"Mr. city lord, why are you doing this? This Xiyang City Lord is not something we can afford to offend."

"Tap tap tap……"

The knight strode towards the city. He was going to mobilize people to arrange for these refugees. Currently, the streets of Beifeng City were surrounded by refugees with their families and families, holding a broken bowl in their hands.

"Hey, have you heard? There is cheap salt for sale in the city"

"real or fake? Now a pound of salt costs forty copper coins, so cheap salt isn’t much cheaper, right? How many copper coins can I drop?"

"Hehe... Look, this bag of salt only costs five copper coins. This bag weighs less than three taels. In total, one kilogram only costs more than 20 copper coins. Is it cheap?"

"A pound of salt costs more than twenty copper coins? Are you kidding me? How could it be so cheap? Salt is bad salt, right? Mixed with sand?"

"No, how could it be mixed with sand? It’s green salt from Xiyang City. It’s good salt. The lord of Xiyang City specially made this small package of salt so that the common people can afford it."

"Xiyangcheng’s salt, that’s no problem, I’ll buy a pack now"

"There is a newly opened salt store in the east of the city. Go there quickly. Many people are rushing to buy it."

"good"

"…………"

"well~~"The knight couldn't help but sigh as he listened to the conversation between the two civilians just now. The salt seller business in Beifeng City has been controlled by Xiyang City, and the same goes for the linen business, all of which are shops opened by Xiyang City.

Now that the common people in Beifeng City heard that the goods came from Xiyang City, they all rushed to buy them. They were cheap and of good quality. The market was already full of goods produced in Xiyang City.

Food, clothing, housing and transportation are all controlled by Xiyang City. If the wheat trade is not controlled by the city lord, maybe it is the city lord of Xiyang who has the final say in Beifeng City.

This is one of the reasons why the Lord of Beifeng City hates Xiyang City so much now. In addition to jealousy, he also hates Xiyang City for intervening in Beifeng City.

If it weren't for the fear of Xiyang City's military strength, perhaps the salt shop, linen shop, restaurant, etc. would have been swallowed up by the Lord of Beifeng City.
