Otherworld Management Manual

Inside the castle, in the restaurant.

Zhang Feng and Caroline sat next to each other, and Amy sat opposite Zhang Feng, as if deliberately staying away from him.

Zhang Feng touched his nose, feeling a little helpless.

He originally thought that he touched Amy's ear, maybe touched her reverse scale or something, Amy should not appear in front of him, at least not for a while.

But I didn't expect that just after cooking, Amy came here after smelling the smell.

Seeing this, Zhang Feng was naturally very happy. It seems that touching his ears is not a big deal.

Caroline didn't know what happened between the two of them, she talked and laughed with Zhang Feng, but she didn't neglect Amy.

Although this wolf-eared girl has a proud personality and a bit of a bad temper, Caroline doesn't feel bad for her, and even treats her like a younger sister.

Perhaps, this is really a world of faces.

"Amy, you seem a little unhappy today, what's the matter?"

Caroline asked concerned.

"fine."

Amy's face was tense, and she replied coldly.

Caroline also cared about her attitude.

"That's fine, the lunch is still very rich. You are growing up, so eat more. This is all made by Mr. Zhang Feng!"

Amy had already picked up her chopsticks, but when she heard Caroline's words, she put them down subconsciously.

"Cough cough."

Zhang Feng was a little embarrassed, but he still had a thick skin. Zhang Feng picked up a large piece of pig's trotter and put it in Amy's bowl.

"Come on, this stewed pig's trotter is very delicious. It is made with all kinds of high-quality spices. Just making this, the spices consumed are all in units of gold coins. Try to see if it suits your taste. ?”

Following Zhang Feng's words, Amy swallowed her saliva subconsciously.

Zhang Feng secretly laughed.

But after he put the pig's trotters into Amy's bowl,

I didn't look at Amy again, so as not to embarrass her.

Sure enough, Amy was relieved when she saw that Zhang Feng was not staring at her.

He lightly took a bite of the braised pig's trotter, and his eyes lit up immediately.

good to eat!

This time, Amy did not eat a table of dishes at a time like before.

Caroline asked the reason, and only then did she know that it was because Amy was too hungry. After eating and drinking, she had already made up for it. Now, the appetite that is two to three times larger than normal people is her normal level.

Well, this "normal" is still not normal for Zhang Feng.

After lunch, Zhang Feng went to see his cement.

Caroline naturally followed, but Amy also followed, somewhat beyond Zhang Feng's expectations.

"Are you not angry anymore?"

Zhang Feng glanced secretly, Amy was still cold and expressionless.

When I went downstairs, I saw the giant panda Panda, lying in a pile of bamboo, eating happily.

These bamboos were all bought from other places, and they didn't cost much gold coins, besides, Zhang Feng didn't care.

"Pang Da, do you want to go out to play?"

Zhang Feng called it out.

Pang Da turned his head to look at him, then looked at the bamboo in his hand, and chose the bamboo decisively.

Well, Zhang Feng had expected this.

Amy was a little upset at this time.

It's called Xiaobai, not Panda!

Unfortunately, no one noticed Amy's silent protest.

The three of them came to the cave, and as soon as Zhang Feng entered, he saw that the cement made yesterday had solidified.

"How about trying this level of hardness?"

Zhang Feng pointed to the columnar body and said to Caroline and Amy.

Caroline tried it, and it felt like rock, very hard, but still unable to strike on her own.

Amy kicked it and broke it.

"Ah I"

Amy herself was stunned. Although she hadn't talked to Zhang Feng, she heard the conversation between Zhang Feng and Caroline, saying that the cement was extremely hard, even harder than a stone.

She used a little strength herself, and it broke immediately. This is seriously inconsistent with the facts described by Zhang Feng!

Amy glanced at Zhang Feng secretly, feeling a little apprehensive, afraid of ruining Zhang Feng's affairs.

But Zhang Feng didn't blame her either.

"Ahem, this is normal. The amount of cement I use is small, and the cement is mainly used for connection. If it is directly used to bear the impact, it will not be so hard."

Zhang Feng is already very satisfied with this level.

After all, it is impossible for those horse thieves to have the strength of a knight.

"Okay, the cement seems to be okay for now, and the next step is to start building the city wall!"

For the threat of the horse thief, Zhang Feng dared not forget for a moment.

"Erica should be free recently."

Zhang Feng turned to Caroline.

"Yes, her slaves are almost fully trained. Since you rewarded her with the position of city officer last time, she has been in the city hall to deal with personnel issues. After all, she used to be a nobleman. It will start soon."

Erica is the most capable among the slaves that Zhang Feng bought before.

Zhang Feng promised her that if he could train these slaves well, he would restore her to the status of a free citizen.

Erica did not disappoint Zhang Feng either, every slave was well trained, even without knowing it, she thought these slaves were nobles.

Naturally, Zhang Feng would not break his promise, not only let Erica regain her free status, but also gave her the status of a city official.

"Let Erica do the job of recruiting people to build the city wall."

You can't bother Caroline with everything, you have to train a few assistants for her, and Erica is very good.

"Yes."

Labor in other worlds is very cheap, even a copper coin can find someone to do the work for you.

After Erica communicated with Zhang Feng, she immediately posted a recruitment notice.

"The city lord is going to recruit people!"

This news immediately spread throughout the entire Hongye City like flying.

Everyone in Red Leaf City knows that the salaries of the positions released by the city lord are very generous, and there are countless people competing for each position.

But Hongye City is so big, it is called a city, but it is actually a village.

There are not so many positions. What Zhang Feng lacks most are talents and soldiers. Talents are hard to come by. After all, those with a little ability have been hired by Zhang Feng long ago. The rest are ordinary people, and soldiers require physical fitness and personality. product.

These thresholds stopped a large number of people.

So when Zhang Feng released the recruitment information this time, it immediately attracted the attention of the whole city.

"Recruiting workers, the salary is 5 silver coins per month, the number is not limited, as long as there is no serious disease, anyone can sign up."

Seeing the information on the bulletin board, many people were moved.

The main reason is that there is no limit, and anyone can sign up.

The monthly salary of these five silver coins seems to be much lower than those before who paid more than a dozen silver coins at every turn, but those positions all have various conditions, and there are only so many people, and one recruit is less than one.

Besides, five silver coins is not a lot. You must know that in Hongye City in the past, the monthly salary of soldiers was only two silver coins.

"I want to sign up!"

"I want to sign up too!"

""

After a little thought, everyone immediately signed up enthusiastically.

Winter is coming, and there are still many unemployed people in Hongye City.

As for the restriction of not having a serious disease, it is not called a restriction at all. Those who really have a serious disease will not live to this point.

Erica had expected this kind of popular registration method, and under her command, the scene soon became orderly.

Tea room in the castle.

Zhang Feng and a person sat opposite each other.

This man was the stone merchant Brown.

"My lord, it's not easy to see you!"

Brown saluted Zhang Feng respectfully.

Zhang Feng smiled. He knew that these businessmen wanted to meet him, just to see if there were any business opportunities they could take advantage of.

But this time is too busy, Zhang Feng can't take care of it.

I took time out today and met with Brown.

Of course, it was actually Zhang Feng who needed his help, but in order to take the initiative, it was naturally impossible for Zhang Feng to express that he needed him first.

This tea room is specially prepared by Zhang Feng to receive outsiders.

The decoration of the tea room is very elegant, giving people a sense of tranquility.

Brown was still a little anxious at first, but after coming here, he seemed to calm down immediately, especially when he smelled a faint fragrance, he felt his whole body relax.

"My lord, this is"

Brown still couldn't hold back his curiosity, looked at the set of exquisite utensils in Zhang Feng's hand, and asked curiously.

"Tea."

Zhang Feng spit out a word lightly, appearing very high and unfathomable.

This is a set of tea sets, there are a lot of tea rules, tea spoons, tea strainers, etc., all of which are made of purple sand, which looks very tall.

"Tea? Is it milk tea? But it doesn't look like it?"

Brown thought of the milk tea he drank before, and the difference in the aroma was still very big.

Zhang Feng didn't answer him, and poured Brown a cup of tea himself, which flattered Brown, and he took it carefully.

"Thank you, Lord City Lord!"

Brown took a sip, the taste was a little bit bitter in the mouth, after a while the taste was strong but not bitter, full of astringency but not astringent, the aftertaste was long and refreshing with sweetness.

Compared with the pure sweetness of milk tea, the taste of this tea is obviously richer, and Brown likes it more.

After drinking it, the whole body and mind feel comfortable.

"My lord, this tea is delicious!"

Brown thought for a while, but couldn't think of any adjectives to describe it.

Some people like tea very much the first time they drink it, and some people don't feel much after drinking more.

Zhang Feng actually belongs to the latter group. He can't drink tea good or bad, and he doesn't particularly like tea, but the quality of tea is not comparable to ordinary things.

No, Brown was stunned at once.

Especially when he touched the texture of the teacup in his hand, Brown didn't know what material it was. It felt like pottery, but it was much more delicate than the pottery he had seen before, and he couldn't put it down.

As a businessman instinctively, he knew that this was another business opportunity.

But today's main purpose is not for the time being.

"Master Zhang Feng, do you still have sugar here?"

Brown cut to the chase.

"White sugar? There should be a little more."

Zhang Feng's tone was a little uncertain.

"real!"

Although expected, Brown was overjoyed when he heard the news.

White sugar has become popular in the noble circles now, and the white sugar they bought in Hongye City reselled, and they made at least five times the price difference!

It has to be said that these noble gentlemen are rich!

Many people even asked where the sugar came from.

Brown and the others naturally wouldn't tell the news about Hongye City, they didn't want to add competitors to themselves.

"I don't know what price the city lord is going to sell it for?"

Brown knew that the price of these white sugars would definitely increase, but as long as it wasn't too outrageous, he could accept it, even if it was to hold another auction.

"I heard that your stone business is quite big?"

Zhang Feng asked suddenly.

Brown didn't know why the Santo spoke of his business, but he replied respectfully:

"The city lord is absurd, I am just a small business, how can I compare to you, the city lord!"

Quietly, Brown flattered.

"I want to rebuild the city wall recently, but stones seem to be troublesome"

Hearing Zhang Feng's intention to buy stones, Brown's eyes lit up immediately.

"No trouble, stones are no trouble at all! If you need anything, just come to me!"

There are actually many stones in the Black Stone Forest, and they all belong to Zhang Feng. He can use them unconditionally, but there is a problem, that is, he has no manpower.

He paid a lot of gold coins to hire workers for the construction of the city wall. If they were to go all the way to carry the stones, let alone whether people could bear it or not, it would take a lot of time alone.

Zhang Feng is not short of gold coins now, what he lacks is time. After all, he doesn't know when the horse thieves will come. If he can build the city wall quickly, he will have an extra guarantee.

Besides, there are emerald mines in the Black Rock Forest, he doesn't want to use those rough emerald stones to build the city wall, what a waste!

"Then how many stones do you think can be exchanged for a bowl of white sugar?"

"What? The city lord is willing to replace it with sugar!"

Brown was dumbfounded at first, but then ecstatic.

Stones are worthless at all, mainly because of the manpower and material resources for transportation, and for Brown, the most worthless thing in his hands is people!

If he could get the white sugar in Zhang Feng's hand, Brown would be willing to give him all those coolie slaves, let alone stones.

"Looks like we can have a good talk."

"Of course, of course!"

In fact, there is no need to talk about it. Brown really wanted this batch of white sugar, so he told Zhang Feng directly.

Within a month, Zhang Feng will send as many stones as he wants, as long as they can be used up! Even after a month, these slaves who transported stones were also given to Zhang Feng!

Brown has seen the city wall of Hongye City, and it is very low and thin. Even if it is the size of the black stone city wall built into the north city wall, it doesn't need many stones at all. He can afford it!

The price Zhang Feng had to pay was a bowl of sugar.

Zhang Feng readily agreed.

For Brown, this bowl of white sugar can bring him tens to hundreds of gold coins. As long as he sells it far enough away, the price will become higher and higher.

With so much income, exchanging some broken stones is really a big profit!

As for Zhang Feng, it was also very profitable. To him, this white sugar was considered a no-cost business, and he could earn money in exchange for anything.

What's more, the city wall built by Zhang Feng is not that petty.

After negotiating with Zhang Feng, Brown left immediately. Although he still wanted to have a few more sips of tea, as a businessman, earning gold coins was obviously more important.

At this time, Amy and Caroline came together.

"Would you like some tea?"

Zhang Feng asked the two of them.

"OK!"

Caroline did not refuse, but Amy looked at the tea set in front of Zhang Feng curiously. It was the first time she had seen such an exquisite pottery.

Zhang Feng took two cups again and poured tea for them.

"Taste."

Caroline took a sip, the taste was bitter but the aftertaste was somewhat sweet, which made her eyes full of surprise, as if she was thinking, how could this leaf-like thing have such a strange taste.

And Amy almost gulped as soon as she took a sip.

"Bah, bah, bah, it's so bitter!"

Obviously, Lang Erniang is not a tea drinker.

Seeing that both of them looked at her, Amy was a little embarrassed.

Zhang Feng didn't mean to blame, he took out two pieces of chocolate and handed them to Amy.

"Kids eat this."

"Humph!"

Amy hated people saying she was a child the most, but she obediently accepted the chocolate that Zhang Feng handed over.

By Zhang Feng's side, you can always eat good food!

This is the truth she has researched in the past two days.

"Well, this one is a bit bitter, but this one is delicious!"

Seeing Amy's eyes narrowed, Caroline patted her head lovingly.

"Hey, don't!"

When Zhang Feng saw it, it was too late to stop, Caroline's hand was already on Amy's head.

He thought that the next battle would be a battle where sparks hit the earth, but the result surprised Zhang Feng.

Caroline looked at Zhang Feng strangely, and Amy also looked at him innocently.

The pointed ears of the wolf-eared lady still trembled in Caroline's palm from time to time.

"What's the matter, Master Zhang Feng?"

"nothing"

Zhang Feng felt that he was being targeted, so why can Caroline touch him casually, and he was kicked away after touching it?

My ass still hurts now.

"By the way, I almost forgot. Someone reported to us that a person of unknown origin came to Hongye City. He is suspected of being a horse thief!"

Caroline was busy drinking tea, and only then remembered her purpose of looking for Zhang Feng.

"Huh? There are horse thieves?"

Zhang Feng was startled.

"It's a suspected horse thief. The person who reported it is a businessman in Hongye City. He has many years of business experience. He is very accurate in judging people. I think it is very likely."

Zhang Feng stroked his chin and fell into deep thought.

He was worried that there would be horse thieves coming, and all the reward orders were issued in Hongye City. If horse thieves were found or suspected of being horse thieves, they could report them. According to the actual situation, the city lord's mansion would give a certain reward.

Of course, this reward order cannot be presented openly, otherwise if there are real horse thieves, they may be alarmed.

This is the reward order that Zhang Feng asked Caroline to announce among the merchants in Hongye City.

Most of the merchants are local merchants in Hongye City, so they still have some affection for Hongye City, and since Zhang Feng has managed Hongye City so well, they don't want Hongye City to be plundered by horse thieves.

Caroline said that this was reported by an old businessman. After being a businessman for so many years, there must be two brushes, so this horse thief is likely to be real.

"Come on, let's go see him."

Coming to the third floor of the tavern, Zhang Feng saw this tall businessman.

"Hello City Lord!"

Lamb saluted respectfully.

"Hello."

Zhang Feng nodded, and then asked straight to the point:

"You said you saw a horse thief?"

"Yes, my lord, I can assure you that this person is a horse thief!"

Lamb looked confident.

"Oh? Why are you so sure?"

Zhang Feng was puzzled, and even wondered if Lamb was here to cheat the reward. After all, people who are so swearing are either genuine or liars.

"Because I heard with my own ears that he sent a message to the horse thief!"

Through Lamb's communication, Zhang Feng finally understood the whole story, and at the same time had to look at Lamb with admiration.

On the way back to Hongye City after a trade, Lamb met a young man who gave him a silver coin and wanted to follow the caravan to Hongye City.

Lamb felt that something was wrong with this young man.

After all, in the barren mountains and wild mountains, it is really rare to see a person who is alone, and he has a kind of faint blood on his body, which most people don't have.

As an old businessman for many years, Lamb was very vigilant, but he did not directly refuse. In case the other party had accomplices or something, although he had hired a lot of thugs, it was better not to provoke trouble if he could avoid trouble.

This young man was naturally Quick.

Along the way, Lamb was observing Quick, and judging from his various habits, he was probably a horse thief.

Until one night, while resting in a dilapidated hotel, Lamb heard Quick's conversation with his own ears, and the content of the conversation was to investigate the situation of Hongye City.

"You are quite brave, dare to eavesdrop on the conversation of the horse thief?"

Zhang Feng was a little surprised. In his impression, businessmen are very shrewd, even a little timid. It is still rare for him to go directly to the root of the horse thief.

"Hey, I was an apprentice knight back then, but due to some reasons, I didn't advance to become a real knight"

Hearing Lamb's words, Zhang Feng suddenly realized that he had confidence, which made sense.

"My lord, if my guess is correct, this horse thief named Quick has left now, do I need to catch him?"

Looking at Lamb's expectant eyes, Zhang Feng suddenly understood that he wanted to hire him.

But Zhang Feng was not in a hurry, he said:

"Where did you take him around?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, the places I'm taking him to are places where everyone can go, such as restaurants and bathhouses, like barracks, I have warned him, he must not dare to go directly."

Zhang Feng fell into deep thought.

Even if a single horse thief is caught, it won't help. What he has to face is not one or two, but a big wave.

"Oh, by the way, Lord City Master, when we were taking a bath together in the bathhouse, I found a mark on his body. If I read correctly, he is a member of the Storm Horse Thieves."

"The Wind Horse Thief Group?"

It was the first time Zhang Feng heard this name.

"That's right, and I also know that their old nest is in Shiliu Valley!"

Lamb said with a sure face.

"Where is Stone Flow Valley? How far is it from Hongye City?"

Zhang Feng is not very familiar with places outside Hongye City.

"It's about a month's journey away from Hongye City at the lowermost part of the Senluo River. If we hurry up, it will only take half a month."

Lamb has been to the vicinity of Stoneflow Valley and knows the situation there.

"One month, so far away?"

Zhang Feng didn't expect that this group of storm horse thieves could radiate such a long distance.

Even if the horse thief named Quick rode back to report the news, and then the horse thief came again, it would take a month to go back and forth.

a month?

Zhang Feng suddenly felt that he seemed to have enough time?

If this is the case, can the city wall be built higher? Wider? Even I still have time to travel back to modern times and bring some good things?

Seems to work!
