Super Gene Hunting Ground

? Yang Xiao inspected the market and found that there were very few types of goods in the market.

In front of a vendor buying pots and pans, Yang Xiao pointed to an iron pot and asked,

"how much is this?"

Seeing that it was Yang Xiao, with Elder Qi, Chen Peng and other guards behind him, the vendor dared to take money from Yang Xiao, so he immediately said,

"My lord, this is for you, no money."

Yang Xiao smiled and said,

"I'm a majestic city lord, can't I take your pot for nothing? Who do you think I am?

I'll just ask about the price, just tell the truth. "

Chen Peng on the side glared at the stall owner,

"The Lord City Lord asked you something, tell me quickly, are you dumb?"

Yang Xiao turned his head and glared at Chen Peng, and Chen Peng had to bow his head in embarrassment.

When the stall owner saw it, he immediately said,

"My lord, there are twenty wafers in this pot."

Yang Xiao didn't know whether the price was high or low, so he asked Mr. Qi beside him,

"Old Qi, how about the price?"

"City Master, this price is a normal price in our castle of the dead, and even in Central Continent. However, if it is in other dwarf star cities outside Central Continent, this price is very high. Under normal circumstances, outside Central Continent place, this iron pot is worth about 3 wafers."

After hearing this, the stall owner was afraid that Yang Xiao would misunderstand, so he quickly explained,

"My lord, you don't know. Our goods are all sold from places other than the Central Continent. Not to mention the long journey, we also have to go through some monster-infested places along the way. If we are not careful, we may even die. throw away,

To be honest, the goods here are also second-hand goods I bought from other sellers. They sold me 15 wafers, so I can earn some living expenses. "

Yang Xiao glanced at the other items sold by the vendors, and asked about a few items, all of which were similar to iron pots.

"Is there no craftsman who produces daily necessities in Central Continent?"

Old Qi smiled and said,

"Compared to other places, the Central Continent is a barren land. The people here only know about plundering wars. No one studies any production. The daily commodities they need are all sold from other places."

"What about weapons and equipment such as pills?"

"The same is true, so the price of things here is several times, even dozens of times higher than outside."

After hearing this, Yang Xiao was silent for a moment, and suddenly had an idea.

Back at the City Lord's Mansion, Yang Xiao called Qi Lao, Wan Yanbai, Fan Chen, Chen Peng, Le Ding and others for a meeting.

"You all said, what is the most important thing for a city to develop?"

Everyone was taken aback and looked at Yang Xiao.

Fan Chen has been with Yang Xiao for the longest time, so he naturally understood what Yang Xiao meant, and said,

"For a city to develop, population is the most important thing."

Yang Xiao nodded and glanced at Fan Chen with satisfaction. As expected, the people who followed him had become smarter.

"That's right, if a city is to develop, the population is the most important thing. Therefore, the most important thing for our Castle of the Dead is to absorb a large number of foreign populations.

By the way, the name needs to be changed, Castle of the Dead? Damn, who would dare to run over after hearing this name? "

Chen Peng smiled and said,

"City Master Yang, the name Castle of the Dead should have been around for hundreds of years. It is said that it was originally a small town built by a group of vicious people. They didn't expect to attract any population. On the contrary, they rejected foreign population, so they chose it. Such a vicious name,

Not only the Castle of the Dead, but also many cities in the Zhongzhou Continent actually exclude foreigners. "

"Why?"

"The reason is very simple. Most of the people who come to Central Continent are criminals who escaped from other ethnic groups in the dwarf star. These people have complicated backgrounds and are difficult to manage. The more people come, the easier it is for the city to fall into a state of turmoil.

But a city can't do without a population, so most castle owners will set restrictions, and through various conditions, leave those with a higher degree of genetic evolution,

Some of these people are absorbed into the guards, and some are called city residents. They can go out to hunt monsters and beasts, and they are able to pay the city protection fee. They are called the objects of the city lord's oppression and exploitation. "

Yang Xiao listened and said,

"Others limit the population, but we don't. We must maintain an open attitude. When people come in, there will be consumption. If there is labor, value will be created and the city will be more prosperous.

In Middle-earth, our castle of the dead shall be a new banner,

Liberty, Equality, Fraternity!

a city full of hope,

Well, the name of the city must be changed, just call it City of Hope! "

Everyone looked at Yang Xiao in bewilderment. They hadn't understood his words of "freedom, equality, and fraternity". When they heard the words "City of Hope", a bright light flashed in their minds.

City of Hope, giving people hope and longing.

Old Qi nodded approvingly,

"Okay, City Lord Yang, the name is good, City of Hope, it's full of warmth when you hear it."

Chen Peng, Le Ding and others also said that this name is very good.

Yang Xiao waved his hand,

"Then it's settled. We'll change the name to City of Hope. The spirit of our city is freedom, equality, and fraternity. We will engrave these six purples outside the city gate and on the city square to let everyone know.

In addition, the Boulevard of Death is dismantled, and anyone who is willing to enter the City of Hope can enter at will, and those who want to settle down can go to the Citizens Hall to register,

Ordinary tourists, passers-by, businessmen and the like are not required to pay city protection fees,

Also, expand the bazaar transactions and encourage everyone to build various shops, which will make it easier for everyone to come and trade various monster prey, weapons, armor, elixir, etc.

We strive to build the City of Hope into the largest trading market in Zhongzhou mainland in one or two years.

By the way, I just saw that the daily necessities in the market are very expensive, so don’t do it, let’s lower the price and give everyone a low-cost living environment.

Pass on my order, anyone who is willing to go to a city other than Central Continent to sell daily necessities here will be exempted from the city protection fee, exempted from the transaction tax, all exempted. "

"ah?"

Chen Peng, Le Ding and others looked at Yang Xiao in surprise.

Other cities only value refugees with high levels of genetic evolution. Why does Yang Xiao value these ordinary traders so much here?

Yang Xiao didn't explain and said,

"Chen Peng, you are the old man of the castle. You are in charge of this matter. Within three days, let everyone in the city know my order. Anyone who is willing to engage in commercial sales and transportation can be exempted from the city protection fee." and transaction tax,

Also, turn that Death Avenue into a high street. "

After hearing this, Chen Peng said loudly,

"No problem, I will let the guards post your notices in the market and every street, send a propaganda team to explain your orders, and the reconstruction of the commercial street will start immediately."

"Leding, I also have an important task for you. You take people to the surrounding cities to spread the news, saying that the Castle of the Dead will be renamed the City of Hope, and all new residents will be exempted from city protection fees for one year. After one year, every People only charge 50 wafers per month,

Also, tell them that the City of Hope has a lot of daily necessities to buy, which are of good quality and low price,

In addition, go to the market in other cities to promote it, do business in the City of Hope, exempt from city protection fees, and exempt from transaction taxes. "

Leting said,

"Okay, no problem, I will send ten teams to each of the ten surrounding cities to promote."

"Old Qi, as the captain of the guard brigade, from now on, you must arrange guards to patrol the city 24 hours a day."

Old Qi patted his chest and said,

"City Master Yang, don't worry, the city's security is on me."

 …

Soon, Yang Xiao's new policy caused a great commotion in the city. Everyone was discussing the issue of doing business, especially Yang Xiao said that businessmen were exempted from city protection fees and transaction taxes. Appeal.

Some people who hunt for their daily purpose have a high level of genetic evolution, and they are also tempted, planning to form a group to sell items outside and come back.

Rows of shops began to be built on both sides of Death Street, and the bidding for shops began.

The name of the City of Hope and the six characters of equality and fraternity have also been engraved on the outside of the city gate.

Yang Xiao arranged for people to set up road signs at several road intersections hundreds of kilometers away, pointing to the City of Hope, and introduced the City of Hope on the road signs.

 …

A group of more than a dozen hunting out of the dark forest came to a fork in the road.

"Hey, damn it, since when is there a road sign here, City of Hope? Where is City of Hope, haven't you heard of it?"

"You don't know how to read, didn't you see the introduction on the road sign? The former Castle of the Dead was renamed the City of Hope. The City of Hope is a good place for you to live, start a business, and do business. New residents pay city protection fees within a year, and do business. permanent exemption from city protection fees, exemption from transaction tax..."

Everyone looked at the introduction on the road sign and was stunned.

"Fuck, I heard that the lord of the castle of the dead was killed. Is the new lord an idiot? If he doesn't charge protection fees, how can he have money to support the guards?

Merchants are permanently exempted from city protection fees and transaction taxes. Did this city owner grow up drinking northwest wind? "

"Boss, should we go over and have a look? I heard that you don't need to pay to enter the castle, and you can come and go freely."

"Okay, since that's the case, let's go and have a look."

This group of people came from Titan City five hundred kilometers away. They were just a group of ordinary hunters, and the boss was named Gemu.

Like the former Castle of the Dead, Titan City has a population of about 500,000, and the protection fee is 100 wafers per person per month.

Gemu is the head of a family. There are more than 50 women and children in the whole family. The monthly protection fee alone costs more than 5,000 wafers. For Gemu, this is a heavy burden.

Ge Mu led a dozen of his clansmen to perform the air-flying technique, and after dozens of minutes, they arrived at the City of Hope.

Ge Mu and the others landed about one kilometer away from the gate of the city. They saw people coming and going outside the city. It was very lively. Many of them were families pushing small cars and moving here with quilts, furniture, pots and pans of.
