Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

"It's the same virtue as Viscount Genie." Niu Ben sneered in his heart, glanced at Viscount Gambaf, and ignored the mourning face of the other party, focusing on the construction of the port in front of him.

For those who want to take advantage of the young master, Niu Ben has always been not polite. He is very clear about what these nobles are planning in their hearts.

He now hopes to have the second military port built before the end of this month.

"Third watch, (￣▽￣). Ask for support.".

Chapter 906: Lack of talent. (4 for support)

Xiyang City, it was around three o'clock in the afternoon.

Liu Feng was busy dealing with government affairs in the study, while An Li was slumped on the table and sorting out the materials.

On her desk, there are many open notepads, at least 30 of them. These are the financial revenue and expenditure of Xiyang City.

Originally, Nicole was supposed to be responsible for these things, but Nicole was sent by Liu Feng to inspect other cities in the past two days, and someone needed to spot check the income books there, so she came to help.

"An Li, how many gold coins are there in Xiyang City now?" Liu Feng looked at the dejected Fox-Er Niang.

"Master, I can't figure it out..." An Li looked at the dense pile of ledgers in front of her, and suddenly felt that one head was two big.

If it was the old Xiyang City, An Li could still calculate it, but in the past six months, a lot of new stores have been opened, and those sold on the Xiyang City Stock Exchange, etc., she can't figure out these calculations at all.

An Li only knows that Xiyang City is very rich now, and it is completely incomparable. She opened the warehouse where the gold coins are stored in the castle, and was completely blinded by the glittering gold coins.

"It seems that I still have to find someone to help you." Liu Feng shook his head and smiled wryly. If he could sort out these data by himself, it would probably be enough.

"Yes, young master, hurry up and find someone to help me." An Li moved to Liu Feng's side, and squeezed her shoulders.

"Forget it, let's wait for Nicole to come back." Liu Feng rubbed his forehead, Nicole was better at these things, and he couldn't think of anyone who could help calculate these in a while.

He is still too short of talents, and the students in the school are simply a drop in the bucket.

"Boom boom boom..."

"Master, I'll come in." Mina's voice came from outside the door.

"good!"

"Crunch..."

Mina walked in with the document in her hand, and saw Hu Erniang standing behind Liu Feng, sticking her tongue out and making a face at herself.

"An Li, is your face cramp?" Mina rolled her eyes.

"You just have cramp!" An Li curled her lips.

"Master, this is a letter from the royal capital." Mina twisted her hips and walked to sit on the desk, and put a document on the desk.

The documents are all sorted letters, from members of the Wolf Warriors team lurking in the capital, and literacy is an essential skill for the Wolf Warriors team.

It took more than 20 minutes for Liu Feng to read all the letters.

The content of the letter can be roughly divided into several points. One is the general situation of the capital.

Second, after they entered the capital, they disguised themselves as identities, some as businessmen, some as tourists, etc...

The third is some information about Wangdushen Bishop.

"Let them lurk temporarily and wait for orders. If there is no accident, they will lurk until winter, so that they can fully integrate into the capital during this time." Liu Feng put down the letter in his hand and instructed Mina.

"Okay." Mina nodded and wrote it down.

"Is there anything else?" Liu Feng looked at another document in Mina's hand.

"This is the alkali mine, the lease certificate for the lease of the Barony of Meilong." Mina put down the document.

"Fifty years? One hundred gold coins per year, who will talk about it?" Liu Feng was surprised. He was not surprised that the territory could be rented out. What surprised him was the lease period and rent.

It is very cheap to rent out the general's land directly for fifty years, and the price is still one hundred gold coins per year.

"His name is Moss..." Mina began to explain.

It turned out that Moss had written a letter from Niu San, intending to recommend him to Xiyang City as a manager. The letter wrote about what Moss had done in Jiahu City, and praised him a lot.

This letter was finally delivered to Mina. At that time, she was worrying about whom to talk to Baron Mellon. After seeing this letter, she decided to ask Moss to give it a try to see if it was really as good as three cows. That's so powerful.

Anyway, if the negotiation fails in the end, just send someone to go there again. She has a hundred ways to get Baron Meilong to agree to let the alkali mine out.

Unexpectedly, the negotiation was actually successful, the lease period was longer than expected, and the rent was not high.

"This Moss is really talented." Liu Feng nodded in praise.

"Young Master, I have already ordered people to investigate his identity and background, and the results should come soon." Mina said calmly.

·······························

"Well, observe for a while, and if there is no problem, let him deal with those merchants, especially those from outside the western land." Liu Feng thought for a while and said.

"Young Master, are you asking him to help me?" An Li was shocked when she heard this. You must know that she was the one who was negotiating with many of those businessmen.

"Well, let me relax a little bit." Liu Feng pinched the nose of Fox Erniang angrily.

"Great." An Li put her arms around Liu Feng's neck, flicking her fox tail in excitement.

"An Li, you can arrange this matter when the time comes." Liu Feng said softly.

"Okay." An Li nodded. This is a business matter, and it will be clearer if you arrange it yourself.

.. . . 0

"Then let's start collecting a large amount of alkali ore, which will be used for degreasing wool and soap." Liu Feng looked at the land lease certificate on the table.

Fifty years, is there any difference between this and giving the general land directly to himself?

"Good master." Mina took out a notepad and began to write.

"By the way, how are the weapons and armor that Elsa asked for?" Liu Feng turned to look at An Li.

"It's all been cast, and next time their mutton ship comes, I'll send it along with the linen." An Li replied, this is the weapon and armor her elder sister wants, and she is more concerned about it.

"Well, that's good." Liu Feng felt relieved.

"Master, shall we go out for a stroll?" An Li blew into Liu Feng's ear, and scratched his neck with her fingers.

She doesn't want to face the pile of ledgers now, her head hurts when she sees them.

"..." Mina squinted her blue eyes, wanting to step forward and tickle the fox-eared lady.
