Starting Today, I'll Work as a City Lord

In the box, the three daughters Darlene and Cast, as well as Princess Daisy, Muller and Ellen Knight started a discussion.

"Princess Daisy, this export of iron ore may not be a bad thing for your Oli dwarf kingdom." Darlene said straight to the point.

"How to say?" Princess Daisy narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Princess Daisy, you should have noticed that the economic level of your Oli Dwarf Kingdom has begun to decline in the past few years." Darlene said in a deep voice, which was analyzed by Liu Feng to her.

"This...my father once mentioned it to me." Princess Daisy hesitated for a while, but still nodded.

"Princess Daisy, do you know why?" Darlene asked suddenly.

"I, I don't know." Princess Daisy shook her head, she rarely ignored these political matters.

"Although the Aoli Dwarf Kingdom possesses a large amount of iron ore resources, it rarely exports them to other countries. Most of them are digested internally, right?" Darlene said indifferently.

"Some of them were made into weapons and sold to the mermaids." Mueller said suddenly.

He is in favor of iron ore export, or several grand dukes are in favor of it. Iron ore export means earning gold coins.

"That's right." Princess Daisy sighed.

Darlene continued, "The trading of iron ore is carried out within the kingdom. It is precisely because of this that your kingdom cannot develop and your wealth will not increase, but will decline instead."

"The iron ore business is all in our kingdom, why do we earn less wealth?" Princess Daisy was puzzled.

"Although your Oli Dwarf Kingdom has a lot of iron ore, as far as I know, it doesn't seem to have the production capacity for daily necessities such as linen. It basically relies on imports. The gold coins spent in this way are 253 huge, and a large amount of wealth flows into other countries. In the hands of merchants, the wealth produced by iron ore cannot keep up with consumption, so how can the wealth increase?" Darlene said calmly, what she said was taught by Liu Feng, and she had studied it for a long time before she understood it.

"This..." Princess Daisy opened her mouth, but she couldn't say a word of rebuttal. After thinking about it carefully, what the other party said seemed to be the shortcomings of the current Aoli Dwarf Kingdom.

"Brother Mu, do you think so too?" Princess Daisy looked at Mu Le who was silent at the side.

Mu Le was stunned for a moment, and nodded after hesitation. His father had already told him about this issue, but the king was very stubborn, and some opinions were all rejected.

Princess Daisy was silent for a moment, then said, "I will go back and talk to my father."

Hearing this, Darlene and the three girls looked at each other, and at the same time saw the joy in each other's eyes.

"Can you give me a bottle of wine that is better than Youhe Daqu?" Princess Daisy looked at Darlene and asked.

"Okay, and these things may help you convince your father." Darlene nodded and pointed to the things in the box next to her. Among them was a bottle of wine in a bamboo tube with a price of one gold coin on it.

Besides that, there are some things like lollipops and instant noodles.

Chapter 0785 traces of rubber trees? !

In the afternoon of Xiyang City, in the area where the scientific research department is located, a carriage came galloping, and finally stopped steadily in front of the gate of the scientific research department.

A man and a woman got out of the car, they were Liu Feng and Mina.

"My lord." The soldier guarding the gate saluted Liu Feng.

Liu Feng nodded calmly, then took Mina into the scientific research department, and walked straight to the research institute.

In the research institute, Fox Erniang was fiddling with something and turned her head when she heard footsteps.

"Master." Seeing that it was Liu Feng, An Li wagged her tail and smiled happily.

"Thank you." Liu Feng smiled gently.

It was An Li who sent the news to Liu Feng earlier. The rewards written by Liu Feng before were sent to the underground bounty club, but I didn't expect the efficiency of the bounty club to be quite high, so I found what Liu Feng wanted so quickly. those materials.

"Young master, it's not hard, come and see, is this rubber?" An Li was very happy, and handed over the things in her hand.

Liu Feng curiously took the thing in An Li's hand. It was a spherical object, off-white in color, with many sundries mixed in it, and it was quite heavy in his hand.

"This looks quite similar." Liu Feng said pleasantly after checking it.

"Master, is this rubber? The material used to make bicycle wheels?" Mina asked curiously. Seeing the young master's happy expression, there was a smile on his face.

"Not yet, it still needs to be processed. This is just the appearance of the resin after it has solidified. It needs to be processed before it can be used in tires." Liu Feng tossed the rubber ball in his hand, and the smile on the corner of his mouth could not be concealed.

He turned his head to look at Hu Er Niang and asked, "An Li, who did you get this from?"

"The news from the bounty club is from a small town in the south of the Kingdom of Yingluo. It is said that it is extracted from the sap from a tree with three leaves." An Li said from behind. He took out a letter from the table and handed it to Liu Feng.

Since Xiyang City put some relatively rough paper on the market, common people's homes would buy some and use it for their children to practice calligraphy.

After all, Xiyang City is vigorously promoting reading and literacy, and paper is a necessity.

Therefore, some other forces in Xiyang City have improved in writing, giving up the parchment and using paper instead.

"A tree with three leaves, isn't this a rubber tree?" Liu Feng looked at the contents of the letter and said in surprise. He didn't expect that there were rubber trees in this world, which was completely beyond his expectation, but it was As expected.

The rubber trees he planted outside Xiyang City are also rubber three-leaf trees. Rubber three-leaf trees can be grown in many regions and climates and have a very high survival rate. This is why Liu Feng chose this tree to collect rubber.

I didn't expect that the tree had been found elsewhere before it grew.

Moreover, it was mentioned in the letter that the trees planted on the hills around the small town were all rubber three-leaf trees, all over the entire mountain forest, and they were all very old, which made Liu Feng even more delighted.

"Looks like I'm going to send someone to the south." Liu Feng put down the letter, looked at the rubber ball on the table, and there was a look of certainty in his black eyes.

Rubber is of great importance, and the future development of Xiyang City is inseparable from rubber.

Not only bicycle wheels need a lot of rubber, but all cars that are expected to be built in the future will need rubber, including the current carriage. If they are replaced with rubber tires, the speed will be greatly increased again and the driving will be more stable.
