Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord
chapter 2
Looking at the wheat fields around him, Liu Feng couldn't help smiling. On the other side of the earth, he was an orphan, and he also went to the fields to farm, so he was very kind when he saw the fields.
"How is it? Is this territory okay?" Carter came to the side at some point.
Liu Feng smiled. Compared with the situation on the other side of the earth, this side is not very good.
"Let's go! Advance to the city, after today, this territory will be yours." Carter squinted and smiled.
"Um!"
Liu Feng nodded, followed behind, and observed the surrounding situation from time to time. He found that the management of the territory was poor, and the people in the territory were very poor.
"This Carter doesn't seem to be a good person." Liu Feng came to this conclusion in his mind.
After advancing for more than ten minutes, I came to the so-called city, which was a low earth wall with a height of only three meters. The estimated size was about the size of a high school on Earth.
Above the city gate hangs a wooden board with three large characters engraved on it: Xiyang City!
Now, Liu Feng has a spectrum of the size of this territory, which is equivalent to a place the size of a town on the other side of the earth.
After entering Xiyang City, the inside was even more chaotic. Liu Feng thought he was in a pigsty, but he saw that Carter and the others were fine, so he knew this situation, maybe it was the normal state of the world here.
There is an avenue in the middle, with a width of five or six meters. There are houses built of wood and stone on both sides, which are crooked. It is suspected that the wind will be blown down.
Liu Feng could feel someone spying from the house, and the eyes of the people standing on both sides of the road were numb, which made him frown.
Seeing Liu Feng's expression, Carter chuckled and said, "My friend, they are all untouchables. If you are not satisfied, you can drive them away."
"It seems that the life in this territory is not very good." Liu Feng answered irrelevantly.
Carter smiled, drove his horse forward, and came to a castle made of stone and bricks, and said with a smile, "My friend, this is where you will live in the future, a tall, safe, and comfortable castle."
Indeed, this castle is the most satisfying place for Liu Feng along the way, not one of them. The castle wall alone is five meters high, which is higher than the city wall.
And people can stand on it, this castle can be used as a war fortress at all.
Liu Feng glanced at Carter. Living in such a castle shows that the other party is very insecure. It seems that this place is not very safe.
After entering the castle, that is, the City Lord's Mansion, he sat down in the living room, and Carter asked someone to bring two things.
"This is the Medal of Baronet Nobility, which is a proof of noble status."
Carter handed Liu Feng an exquisite bronze medal the size of a baby's palm, with two words engraved on the bronze medal: Baron.
"This is the inheritance document of the nobility. As long as you sign your name on it, you will be Baron Liu Feng from now on, and you will be a nobleman from now on." Carter pushed a beautifully crafted parchment scroll over.
Looking at the content above, Liu Feng couldn't help frowning. This is a certificate and origin representing the baron nobility, and in the blank space below, four or five names were signed, the most of which was Carter's name.
Carter, who has been paying attention to Liu Feng, said distressedly, "This is not the first time I have sold the territory, but the previous buyers, after buying it, thought it was too boring here, and begged me to buy it back again, so I bought it back. So many signatures."
"Oh!" Liu Feng was surprised, with the corners of his mouth raised, revealing an intriguing smile.
Carter's heart tightened, he wondered if Liu Feng had noticed something, and said quickly, "Okay, my friend, sign your name quickly, this territory is yours now."
Liu Feng took out a pen from his pocket, signed his name on the parchment, and pressed his thumbprint, and Carter then pressed his thumbprint on the name.
"Hahaha... Congratulations to Baron Liu Feng, you will be a noble in the future." Carter laughed and congratulated.
Chapter 0003 Cargo from Earth.
Liu Feng casually put the two items aside, and said calmly, "Then let's count the goods and settle the price."
"Okay!" Carter nodded, and immediately called a middle-aged man, this is his housekeeper, a shrewd housekeeper.
"Housekeeper, help me estimate the price."
"Yes!" The butler replied respectfully.
Liu Feng lifted a box to the table, opened the box, and took out five glasses from it, the kind of glasses that cost more than ten yuan each in the supermarket.
"hiss……"
Carter, Fez and the butler gasped, their eyes fixed on the glass in Liu Feng's hand, and the three hurried forward to hold their hands together, and took the glass carefully.
"This is a crystal glass cup! I was lucky enough to see one in the Duke's mansion, but it was not as pure and gorgeous as these." Carter exclaimed, his eyes full of greed.
Fez's breath became short of breath, and he held the glass tightly with both hands, wishing to take the glass as his own immediately.
"Three, how many gold coins do you think these three crystal glass cups are worth?" Liu Feng directly priced the glass cups worth more than ten yuan at the level of gold coins.
The currency in this world is divided into three levels, copper coins, silver coins, and gold coins.
1 gold coin is equal to 100 silver coins, and 1 silver coin is equal to 1000 copper coins.
Based on Liu Feng's one-month understanding, the price of 1 copper coin is equal to the purchasing power of 1 dollar on the earth.
"Huh..." Carter took a deep breath, carefully placed the glass on the table, and said with a smile, "My friend, I will give you five gold coins for a crystal glass."
This price is no longer something a housekeeper can estimate.
In silence, Liu Feng raised his eyelids and glanced at the glasses. He had no idea that a glass was worth five gold coins. He estimated that two gold coins would be outrageous.
A gold coin, converted into the value of the earth, is 100,000 yuan, and a glass is only a dozen yuan. This profit is terrifying.
Seeing that Liu Feng remained silent for a long time, Carter quickly added, "Of course, these crystal glass cups are of good quality, and you can add another gold coin."
"Uh..." Liu Feng knew that the other party had misunderstood as soon as he heard it, and he sighed, "Oh! These five crystal glass cups, but I received them from a down-and-out noble. Let me spend five gold coins, plus twenty silver coins, and now pay the price of six gold coins to you, I am at a loss!"
"Hahaha..." Carter smiled mysteriously, "Baron Liu Feng, my friend, I won't let you suffer, I have a good gift for you later."
"Oh?" Liu Feng raised his eyebrows, gritted his teeth, and said, "Okay, let's make the deal at the price of six gold coins."
"Hahaha..." Fez laughed excitedly, quickly put away the five glasses, and held them in his arms like babies.
"Five glasses...ahem...the total price of the five crystal glass cups is 30 gold coins, which is just enough to offset the money for buying the territory, so we're clear." Liu Feng said with a twitch of his mouth.
"Yes!"
Carter nodded, keeping his eyes on the two boxes, and said calmly, "Baron Liu Feng, can the old man take a look at the other goods, if you are satisfied, we will buy a few."
These words made Liu Feng's heart tremble. He knew that the other party was becoming greedy. If the goods really satisfied the other party, he might kill people to seize the treasure.
"sure!"
Liu Feng paused on the box with both hands, and then opened the box calmly, revealing several clothes and some ceramic products inside.
Seeing this scene, a trace of disappointment flashed in Carter's eyes, and he smiled reluctantly, "Are these exquisite ceramic plates sold to me last time?"
"Yeah! There are only these things left. After all, it took too long to transport them from the Far East, and a lot of them were broken along the way."
