Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

Liu Feng's black eyes opened slightly, surprised at how clever Mao Erniang was, "This is the only way, after all, it will cost a lot to support the refugees in winter until next spring, and now with the state of the Flandre Empire, it is not worth it. It is possible to do such a loss-making business."

"Don't worry about Your Majesty, Niu Da has sent people to take over these refugees, and their plan will not work." Mi Bao smiled.

Liu Feng read the last sentence of the telegram and said, "People from the Flanders Empire have actually been sent to sea."

"Your Majesty, are they planning to return to the Flanders Empire and demand a ransom from the king there?" Mi Bao guessed.

It's almost the same, but when they return the ransom, there is still no way to give us the labor that should be given to us. "Liu Feng scoffed.

"Your Majesty, what do you plan to do?" Mina was a little puzzled.

Liu Feng put down his teacup and said, "By the time their people arrive in the Flandre Empire, the king over there probably has already sent people to sea. We can get the number of people and gold coins, and Field is still collecting money for us." Labor, totally unaware of it."

"I understand, Your Majesty, you want to get rid of Field after receiving 5,000 laborers, right?" Mina said seriously.

Liu Feng tapped the teacup with his index finger, and said, "She is absolutely necessary. As for the deal with the Flandre Empire, it is good that we can talk to Prince Eddie."

Mi Bo nodded and said, "No matter what, that man Field can't get along with us peacefully. It's better to get rid of him at this time."

"Well, as for how to get rid of it, it depends on what the Queen of Ash Kingdom will do." Liu Feng took a sip of hot tea.

"When they come to make this request, we will use this as a bargaining chip to win the mine export rights of the Yadian Kingdom, right?" Mina immediately understood the importance of the negotiation. Liu Feng put down his teacup and said, "In this way, we can not only win the trade of the French 330 Randall Empire, but also the mine export of the Yadian Kingdom. Why not do it."

"Your Majesty, the Queen of Ash Kingdom has been in Chang'an City for several days." Mi Yanhui reported.

"Understood, let's arrange a meeting tomorrow." Liu Feng said with a smile, it's time to negotiate.

Mi Bao nodded and said, "I'll ask someone to make arrangements, and by the way, they can be sent to the embassy."

"Just look at the arrangements for these trivial matters." Liu Gen said lightly.

"Understood." Mi Bo smiled.

Liu Feng turned to another page of the telegram and said, "It's just that the problem of drying clothes really needs to be solved."

"Yes, Your Majesty, it doesn't matter how many clothes we have. Others don't have so many clothes. Most clothes are not dry in these weathers." Enli blinked her brown eyes and said.

"Let the people in the scientific research department worry about it. Let them develop a machine that can dry clothes. It can be dried by high-speed rolling, or it can be dried with charcoal." Liu Feng said lightly.

"Yes." Anli nodded.

"Second update, (CV). Please customize, please support."

Chapter 1539: Inquiring about intelligence? (3 more for customization)

In the apartment on the third floor of Huiye Building, Timothy is sitting in front of the mirror and tidying up his appearance, while Baona is helping to arrange his hair.

This is the fifth day they have lived in Chang'an City, and they stayed in Huiye Tower under the suggestion of the tour guide.

"Your Majesty, where are we going today?" Baoyan asked suspiciously, but she kept combing her hair without stopping.

Timothy blinked and stared at himself in the town, "I don't know, let's talk about it first, we haven't finished shopping in Chang'an City yet, have we?"

Bao Bao nodded and said, "Your Majesty, what kind of hairstyle do you want to wear today?"

"It's still the same as yesterday, it looks very girly." Timothy couldn't help laughing, he was almost thirty, and he was still talking about a girlish hairstyle. Explosively and skillfully combing the queen's style, she asked suspiciously, "Your Majesty, do you want to make up today?

Timothy blushed slightly, and said, "Go ahead, the cosmetics in Chang'an City are really amazing, they can cover most of the freckles on my face."

"Yeah, this lipstick looks very expensive, but it only sells for 300... 300 yuan." Baobao is still very unfamiliar with the name of 300 yuan, and always feels that it is not as good as 300 yuan. The currency is better.

He took the lipstick for Moxi, wiped a light layer of lipstick on his mouth, and said, "This color is really pretty, no wonder they all like Chang'an City."

"Your Majesty, what do you think will happen if you take all these things from Chang'an City back to Alor City and sell them?" Nabo asked curiously.

"Hmm... I think it will cause a lot of looting, after all, these things are really good." Timothy pondered.

Bao Yan nodded and said, "Your Majesty, Chang'an City is really suitable for living, but I remember before that this place is not a poor place? How can it develop so well. 1?

Timothy shrugged and said, "I don't know about this. At that time, Wheeler and the others also said that the land to the west is a land of poverty. As for why it developed so well, we have to ask the king of the Han Dynasty face to face. gone."

"But having said that, we have all been in Chang'an City for five days, why haven't you summoned us yet?" Bao Bao asked puzzled.

Finally, Timothy dusted the powder on his face and said, "It must be a bit busy to manage such a good kingdom, it's okay, let's wait, if it weren't for the airship, we are still on the way to Chang'an City ."

The queen has been living in Chang'an City for the past few days, and she is already familiar with the steps and techniques of makeup, so she doesn't look like a novice at all.

Na Bao nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Okay, Your Majesty, I'll help you change your clothes." "Yes."

Timothy put down his make-up and stood up, asking, "Did Wheeler go to the tavern again early in the morning?"

Yes, Your Majesty, except for trying new things in Chang'an City, the Duke spends most of his time in taverns these days. "Bang Bang nodded in response.

"The wine in Chang'an City is delicious, but it's not enough to stay there every day, right? It loses the face of our big country." Timothy rolled his eyes lightly.

Na Bao finally helped the queen put on her coat, and said, "Your Majesty, the Duke said that you can hear a lot of information that you can't usually hear there."

"Information? We've been asking for so long these days, but we haven't gained anything. Can we still find out information in a tavern?" Timothy said sleepily.

"It is said that many people there will talk nonsense when they are drunk. Although there is no guarantee of the truth of what they say, it can still be used as a reference." Baobao explained. Timothy pulled his clothes and said, "Got it, let's go out."

"Okay, Your Majesty, let me check the weather outside first." Baona went to the window and opened it. "Clatter..."

As the windows opened, the sound of rain came into the ears, and snowflakes were blown into the room along with the cold wind.

Nayan quickly closed the window, and the sound of the rain was about to stop. She turned her head and said, "Your Majesty, it's very windy and rainy outside, and it's still snowing. The weather is really terrible."

Timothy sighed, and said, "It's hard to clean up, but it's raining, and there's snow in it. The weather is too bad."

Nayan made a cup of milk tea and said, "Your Majesty, please drink a cup of milk tea first, we will go out later."

Timothy took the milk tea and said, "."Let's eat at Hui Ye Lou today instead of going outside, and see how the weather is after eating. "

"Yes, I'll let someone arrange the box right now." Yan Na nodded in response, then turned around and let the maid outside the door arrange it.

"By the way, did you go to change the banknotes?" Bang Moxi suddenly remembered this matter.

Recently, the frequency of using banknotes in Chang'an City has reached a peak. Almost everyone uses banknotes when going out. It is better to bring banknotes when going out than to bring coins, at least it is lighter.

The same is true for merchants. Banknotes are easier to liquidate, and they are also very new. They look better than coins and are easier to deposit.

Although some people still accept the coins used by the queen these days, most of them are the first to ask if there are any banknotes, and there are discounts for buying things with banknotes, which makes them extra curious.

Yesterday, I ordered someone to inquire about how to exchange them, and I also wanted to try paper (Lea Nuohao) coins in Chang'an City.

Nana nodded and said, "It's already been exchanged. There is a bank in Chang'an City, and they all exchanged it there, but...but what?" Timothy asked suspiciously.

"However, the amount exchanged this time did not match the coins we took out. They said that our coins were of poor quality and some were very dirty, so some were deducted." Na Bao explained.

Timothy put down the cup of milk tea and said, "It's understandable. Our coins are indeed a bit worn out. It's fine to change them, as long as it's not too outrageous. Anyway, we're just changing some to experience it."
