The afterglow of the setting sun shines on the wooden plaque of Chaoyang Temple, and the sign under the wooden plaque has been replaced by Chaoyang Temple Trading Group Company.

Li Xuefeng and I got up from the recliner and stretched out in agreement. Then he quietly looked down the dirt slope.

This is when the digital trio and Doha come to account.

Every day, the fees received at the checkpoint and the market management office will be sent to Chaoyang Temple at this point in time, and Li Xuefeng and I will sign for them and put them in the Treasure Pavilion.

Within a month of the opening of the bazaar, our fortune reached a staggering 11,000 silver dollars, which, according to Li Xuefeng, was enough for a family of 10,000 to live on for a year.

In addition to the 7,000 yuan earned by the two jewelry transactions with Tao Linzhi, the checkpoint can bring in fifteen silver dollars a day, and the bazaar can bring in about thirty yuan. Coupled with the income from annual and monthly rent, Li Xuefeng's Treasure Pavilion has a tendency to become smaller and smaller.

And when three months later, more than a dozen shops in the commercial street began to pay rent, and our income was bound to be even more amazing. Even so, we haven't counted the expected income from the growing number of merchants in Taoyuan Town and Qingfeng City who want to come to the bazaar to do business.

Yes, the business of the bazaar and the commercial street is getting better and better, and after the market opened for a week, not only have the residents of Taoyuan Town come to buy goods, but even Qingfeng City, there are also merchants who have heard the news and come to inquire about the news.

Up to now, the bazaar, where all the shops and stalls have been rented out, has not only become an important shopping place for the residents of Taoyuan Town, but also an important source of goods for merchants in Qingfeng City.

As a result, the restaurant and hotel industry next to the market are also on fire, not to mention the Chaoyangsi Hotel and Chaoyangsi Hotel under the market management office.

Now the Chaoyang Temple Hotel has become the best hotel in Taoyuan Town.

After all, the catering industry and hotel service industry in the Three Realms are still in a primitive state, where have these local fish bosses seen eating while listening to mountain songs, and there are also fresh forms of selling rice such as free animal skin coupons from time to time by lottery of mountain beauties?

Such a restaurant, even if it requires each guest to spend more than 10 copper plates, is it not too much?

And Chaoyang Temple Hotel is even known as the best hotel in the thirty-six towns under Qingfeng City.

After all, the single room is a 1.8-meter-tall bed, and the standard room has two 1.2-meter-long beds, all of which are placed with a 30-centimeter soft mattress made of beast fluff. Not to mention the new hotels such as changing the bedding every day, delivering breakfast and mountain fruits to the hotel, and providing room service?

This kind of accommodation, even if it is 50 copper plates per room per night, is not expensive, right?

The houses near the official road at the foot of the mountain in the first settlement, except for a few hotels and restaurants run by the mountain tribes, have now all been rented out, and almost all of them have become low-end or mid-range restaurants and inns.

Their customers are mainly small traders and vendors who come to the market to do business.

The income of the first settlement, in addition to the income of the staff of the market management office themselves, the income from operating and renting out the storefronts belongs to the neighborhood committee.

This is the Chaoyang Temple economic system that combines the market economy and the collective ownership economy formulated by Li Xuefeng.

This is also the reason why today, after paying the accounts, the two hundred and fifty-five silver dollars were arrogantly taken out as the profits of the collective economy to the Chaoyangsi Group Company this month.

I looked at Li Xuefeng's smug smile and said angrily: "Why do you want so much money? ”

Li Xuefeng's smile stopped abruptly, tilted his head and thought for a long time, and said to Erte and Doha: "It's better not to hand over the profits, use them to distribute them to each household, even if it is the welfare of the first resident of the group company." ”

Huert and Doha looked at each other, but Doha took a step forward and said: "Brother Li, Second Brother Xu, the neighborhood committee has already distributed half of the profits as benefits, and if it is sent again, I am afraid that it will blow the industrious and thrifty nature of the residents." “

Li Xuefeng was stunned for a moment, but I understood what Doha meant.

smiled and said to the two: "In this way, you will build a financial office there as a small treasury of the collective economy, but the accounts must be done well, and we may check them at any time." ”

Doha thought for a moment, bowed down and said, "This is not in line with the system." ”

Hu'er Te said: "Two eldest brothers, I don't understand this accounting, but the six hundred and thirty-seven members of our mountain clan are all subordinates of Chaoyang Temple, and this is a separate treasury, I'm afraid that the residents below will have ideas." ”

I smiled and said, ", what do you think, your money is going to go into the general account of the group company, and the expenses are going into the cost." The rules of the two lines of income and expenditure cannot be broken, don't think that your brother Li will give you this money for no reason, he is better than a monkey. ”

Both of them laughed, Li Xuefeng glanced at me, and said, "Yes, the account should be done well, the quantity will be included in the monthly reconciliation, and the dividend will be deducted at the end of the year." ”

The two smiled and agreed, saluted and left.

The digital trio carried the money in.

Li Xuefeng and I stood under the eaves, and each stretched out again.

After looking at each other and smiling, I asked, "What do you think?"

Li Xuefeng looked at the sunset and said, "I just think it's boring to just patrol like this every day, and then bask in the sun and wait to count the money." ”

I laughed and said, "I also feel like we're too idle, and we should find something to do for ourselves." ”

As he was talking, Li Ersan came out and handed me a letter and said, "The official named Golden Eagle asked me to give it to you." ”

I asked curiously, "Why didn't he come himself?"

Li Ersan pouted and said, "He was busy going to the restaurant to drink." ”

I smiled, opened the letter and saw that it was written by Tao Zhiran, and there was one sentence on the letter: Brother Xu, please come to Tao Ranju for a while at noon tomorrow.

After reading the letter again, I smiled and said to Li Xuefeng: "Maybe when I come back tomorrow, we will have something to do." ”

......

......

Early the next morning, I rode a little donkey and walked leisurely towards Taoyuan Town.

When I got to the river, I touched the small wooden stick in my arms and went straight to the circle.

Sure enough, the air flashed like water waves, and the little donkey and I went straight into the town.

When I arrived at Taoranju, I handed over the little donkey to the guy who was already guarding the door, walked into the store with my hands behind my back, and went directly to the second floor.

Sure enough, Tao Zhiran was drinking tea at the table in front of the window.

I walked over, unceremoniously picked up the teapot and brought myself a cup of tea, and drank it in one gulp.

Then he sat down, took out a cigarette and lit it and smoked it.

"You're welcome. ”

Tao Zhiran said with a smile.

I smiled and said, "Boss Tao has made a fortune this time, isn't he willing to take a sip of tea?"

Tao Zhiran smiled and didn't speak, just looked at the bustling street outside the window.

I also turned my head to look at the street and smoked a cigarette quietly.

After a while, I heard him say leisurely: "There are still more than three months, and the winter is coming." ”

I wondered why he said this, but then he surprised me.

"Every winter, it's the time when the Protoss go to Qingfeng City to fight the Grass Valley. ”

Tao Zhiran said.

"You have a magic circle, what are you afraid of?" I said with a smile.

Having lived in Taoyuan Town for so long, I already know about the situation here.

Taoyuan Town is one of the thirty-six towns under the rule of Qingfeng City, but it is the most important town, and the main reason is that it is protected by a magic circle.

There is a magic circle in Taoyuan Town, and there is another one at the pass leading to Qingfeng City on the official road.

These two barriers can basically ensure that Taoyuan Town is not disturbed by the outside world, can plant and breed calmly, and still has spare energy to carry out commercial activities, so as to provide a stable rear area for Qingfeng City.

However, the magic circle is not omnipotent, every winter, the Protoss, who have no food and clothing, will attack the territory of the Terran Race.

And Qingfeng City, which has a large population and a rich life, is often the main direction of attack of the Protoss.

The reason is nothing more than that it borders with the Protoss and is rich in storage.

"This year, Runshuang, natural disasters continue, and by the time of early winter, the mountains and forests of the Protoss may have been empty. Tao Zhiran said.

"What do you mean......" I asked tentatively.

"Chaoyang Temple must be prepared, not only to do a good job of its own storage, but also to prepare for Qingfeng City. Tao Zhiran stared at me and said.

"You mean, Breeze City might be in trouble?" I asked, surprised.

He smiled suddenly, leaned back, and pretended to be relaxed and said, "Be prepared, you know, the magic circle is very powerful, and you don't have to think about safety." ”

However, his next move betrayed him.

Tao Zhiran leaned forward again, put his hands on the table, and said to me: "There are eggs under the nest, Brother Xu, your Chaoyang Temple is also under the rule of Taoyuan Town, and your Blood Demon Gang is also a part of Taoyuan." ”

My heart fluctuated, but there was no expression on my face, I just arched my hand and said, "Okay, I'll start preparing when I go back, thank you Boss Tao." ”

......

......

In this case, the situation is very dangerous. It is very likely that Breeze City has been defeated on the front line, or has suffered a lot of losses. Li Xuefeng said with a frown.

Qingfeng City has been at war with the Protoss, which is well known to passers-by, so Li Xuefeng's analysis is not unreasonable.

As soon as I returned to Chaoyang Temple, I found Li Xuefeng, Huang Youliang, Hu Erte and Doha to discuss.

"In the past, once Qingfeng City was in an emergency, the refugees from the other thirty-five towns would follow the rout and retreat to Taoyuan, and the pursuing Protoss would often follow them to break through the magic circle of the pass, which was the so-called Taoyuan military disaster. Huang Youliang said.

Doha continued: "Taoyuan Town generally only accepts dignitaries from Qingfeng City, and those refugees can only be killed or surrendered, which is also the origin of many mountain people in Taoyuan, most of our earliest mountain people are from the retinue of defeated soldiers and dignitaries, because the circle does not accept the evolution of the Protoss. ”

I asked curiously, "Don't the Protoss pursuers rush into the town?"

Huang Youliang said with some sadness: "The refugees and mountain people, it is enough for the Protoss to burn and loot, why do they have to bother to attack Taoyuan Town, which has a magic circle?"

After speaking, he added with a wry smile: "Now you know why we are willing to be serfs and not free mountain people, right?"

Hearing this, I couldn't help but be shocked.

Nima Tao Ran, this dog day will use refugees and mountain people as shields and cannon fodder!

"In the past, I also tried to resist, but the Protoss were outnumbered, and I was weak, and when I couldn't resist, I took the four small ones to the mountains to hide. Li Xuefeng said silently.

I silently lowered my head, took out a cigarette and lit it, and when I looked up, I saw that everyone was looking at me expectantly.

"Why are you looking at me?" I was worried, because what I was thinking was that everyone should hide in the mountains and be finished.

"God-King, we serve you as Lord and will never disobey your commands. Doha said, kneeling down to my chest as he knelt down.

I looked at Li Xuefeng, who was also looking at me, and said sincerely: "Big brother, you are the leader of the Blood Demon Gang." ”

I was silent, lowered my head and took a hard puff of my cigarette, threw the cigarette butt out the door, stood up and looked at the sunset outside, and said word by word: "Brother Huang, please go and inform the villages, there will be a meeting tomorrow." ”
