On the streets of Wildfire City

At this time, Johnson felt very strange about Wang Xiaode's approach, it stands to reason that Adams opened 15 gold coins at the price of a potion according to the price of divine arts, and he could get 150 gold coins, so why should he trade at the price of 10 gold coins. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info There is also something that Wang Xiaode said to the old shopkeeper afterwards.

At this time, Wang Xiaode, who was walking in front, was very happy in his heart, and he also noticed Johnson's puzzled face, but he didn't explain anything. In Wang Xiaode's mind, he and Johnson are fundamentally different, and as time goes by, this gap will become bigger and bigger.

Soon, under the guidance of Johnson, the two came to the city hall, and at this time the two had changed their outfits. Johnson changed into a new blue coarse cloth dress, replacing the original gray-yellow linen clothes, which made Johnson very happy. And Wang Xiaode changed into a light casual aristocratic clothing of upper quality.

Before entering the city hall, Johnson was a little nervous. No way, Johnson used to be a buddy in a tavern in the county, and he had never seen a big man above the baron, and although the person he wanted to meet today was not the Earl of Warrens himself, he was also the highest-ranking administrator under the city lord, although he did not have a title, but occasionally his status was sometimes higher than that of the viscount.

Although the purchase of a knight's domain is only the smallest territory, once the territory is involved, it must be reported to the city lord's mansion, and it is usually handled by the city magistrate himself.

Not long after, Wang Xiaode met with the city magistrate in the city magistrate's office, "According to the regulations of Wildfire City, non-knights need to pay 2,000 gold coins to buy a knight's collar, or they can be paid in 4 installments, once in 10 years. However, this will require some additional work on the upper baron. Within the territory, the lord has a high degree of autonomy, but must be loyal to the royal family and obey the laws of the kingdom in advance"

"Lord City Governor, I don't know if I can pay for my territory by providing alchemy potions to the county." Wang Xiaode immediately said that he only had 100 gold coins in his pocket now. I didn't even have the first 500 gold coins, but I couldn't provide so many gold coins unless I sold all the runes on my body.

"Alchemy Potion, you're an alchemist?" The city magistrate looked at Wang Xiaode with suspicion, to be honest, in the eyes of the city magistrate, the young man in front of him was too young. Generally speaking, alchemists who have learned well are not young. As an Earldom City Magistrate, I have also seen a lot of alchemists, but I have never encountered anyone who bought a knight's collar.

Although the purchase of a knight's collar can give you the opportunity to become a baron nobleman in the future, this possibility is not large. Generally, they are down-and-out aristocrats, and big businessmen just want to buy a family business.

"I don't know what kind of alchemy potion it is, can you let us take a look," the city magistrate asked cautiously. In the eyes of the city officials, although the alchemists themselves have encountered a lot, there are not many who work in Wildfire City, only three or four, so every alchemist is a wealth of Wildfire City.

After the city magistrate took Wang Xiaode's scald potion, he quickly called the city lord's mansion pharmacist Adams, in fact, this kind of identification of the potion, the best is of course the same alchemist, but although there is no peer in the other world is the saying that the peers are enemies, but the similar truth, the city magistrate is still clear.

After Adams met the city magistrate, he had a long private conversation with the city magistrate, and what Wang Xiaode planned happened.

"Haha, Your Excellency Mingde, I didn't expect you to be such a great alchemist, I am very willing to accept your application to buy a knight's domain with potions on behalf of the City Lord's Mansion, and our Warrens County is willing to pay you another 5 gold coins per potion, and we will also give you an actual territory that is twice as large as the usual knight's territory, and you don't need to provide extra work to your superior baron in your life, of course, your descendants must come according to the regulations, otherwise the baron has the right to cancel the inheritance of your descendants" The city magistrate said with a smile on his face.

According to the rules, the descendants of a knight lord have no right to inherit the domain, but they can continue to serve as lord with the consent of the superior baron. Similarly, the Baron can revoke the status of a Knight Lord at any time. However, most barons would not do this, as it would be detrimental to their rule.

In fact, the city magistrate can be described as cunning and cunning, with his rights, the additional division of territory can only be wasteland, not reclaimed land, you must know that there is no population on wasteland. And a potion is worth 15 gold coins, and he only counts 10 gold coins, of which 5 are counted as territory taxes, so that the City Lord's Mansion can earn an extra 5 gold coins.

In order to develop other wastelands, Wang Xiaode had to spend in the city, buying resources and food. And also reclaimed two more wastelands, firmly trapped an alchemist, and had a stable supply of goods, which can be described as killing four birds with one stone.

"Thank you very much for your help, I still need you to take care of it in the future" Wang Xiaode put down his body and expressed his gratitude to the city magistrate.

"Oh, by the way, I don't know how often you can provide potions, and how many potions you can provide each time?" The city magistrate seemed to remember something, and hurriedly asked.

"It also takes some time for me to refine the potion, do you think it takes 10 servings per month as a month?" Wang Xiaode's tentative suggestion arrived.

"Well, okay, that's it, then let's sign the agreement" Then Wang Xiaode signed a formal agreement with the City Lord's Mansion under the appraisal of the god of wilderness, and Wang Xiaode also got the territory documents and identity documents as he wished, and left 30 potions. Wang Xiaode's knight collar is also officially named [Ronal Knight Collar]

This is Wang Xiaode's otherworldly surname for himself, Mingde Ronal, to be honest, even Wang Xiaode himself feels a little twisted, but every lord is considered a nobleman, and a nobleman must have his own surname. I had no choice but to follow the local customs.

After that, Wang Xiaode took a tour of Wildfire City under the introduction of the entourage arranged by the City Lord's Mansion, and it was also the City Lord's Mansion that wanted to firmly grasp this alchemist in order to show his strength.

Wang Xiaode plans to buy a house in Wildfire City, and it will be much more convenient to come to Wildfire City in the future. As for Johnson, who had already returned to Ronald accompanied by an envoy from the City Lord's Palace, they still needed to submit paperwork to the superior baron. Although administratively, the baron cannot interfere with the Ronald Lordship now, but if he does not submit the papers, Wang Xiaode will not be able to enjoy the rights of the lord.

Under the guidance of his entourage, Wang Xiaode spent a full 50 gold coins to buy a mansion in Wildfire City, and hired an old butler to help take care of the mansion under the introduction of Adams.

Just when Wang Xiaode was buying some furniture accompanied by the old butler Jace, he suddenly heard a shouting from the side of the road.

"Come and see, come and buy, beautiful women, sturdy men, women can do laundry, cook and warm beds, men can plough the fields and farm the land and be thugs" A middle-aged fat man with a fat head and brain shouted the edge of the square.

"Who are these?" Wang Xiaode asked the housekeeper next to him.

"Sir, these are slaves, the kingdom is at war against the Duchy of Tru recently, I guess these are the surrendered prisoners of war" Jace is a very competent steward, and obviously knows the situation in Wildfire City very well.

"Let's go and see" For Wang Xiaode, the word slave is very unfamiliar, you must know that in modern society, there can be no slaves at all, even in backward places, the slave trade is very low-key, and the scale is very small. Looking at a group of men and women who were stripped naked, chained together, Wang Xiaode was really shocked.

However, Wang Xiaode quickly calmed down his state of mind, there are even gods here, what is a slave.

"How are you going to sell these slaves?" When Wang Xiaode saw these slaves, he also had some thoughts in his heart, so he asked.

"Yo, this old man, you can be regarded as asking the right person, my slaves here are all high-class goods, and the women are all 15 to 30 years old, all of them can give birth, and their butts are big. And they are all defeated nobles, there is no trouble, buy it back and dress it up a little, that is the princess. As for the men, they are all farmers, and they are all good at farming and raising horses, so I guarantee that you will not suffer a loss" As soon as he heard someone ask the price, the big fat man hurriedly bragged.

"I'll just ask you how to sell it, don't bother!" Wang Xiaode asked a little impatiently.

"10 gold coins for men and 5 gold coins for women, what do you think?" The fat man asked a little nervously.

Hearing this price, Wang Xiaode was stunned for a while, in Wang Xiaode's eyes, in modern society, women are worth a thousand gold, I can't imagine that in the other world, the population is so cheap, even cheaper than men.

Seeing Wang Xiaode stunned, the fat man thought it was too expensive, and said, "If the quantity is large, the price can be negotiated."

Hearing the fat man speak, Wang Xiaode reacted, so he took the opportunity to ask, "5 male servants, 10 female maids, men under 30 years old, women under 20 years old count 5 gold coins, every 2 years old less one gold coin, what do you think?" ”

In this way, Wang Xiaode bought 15 slaves for 100 gold coins. Due to the large number of slaves, although his own strength should be able to suppress it, in order to avoid trouble, he still paid for the earl's court to send a small team of soldiers to escort him.

It also left the old housekeeper with the task of buying grain, saplings, and building materials. According to the monthly consumption of 300 people, the grain was purchased, and when Wang Xiaode returned to his territory, he only had more than 70 gold coins on him.

When Wang Xiaode returned to the territory, there were 20 people behind him. Wang Xiaode arranged for 5 soldiers to return to the county, and 15 slaves were also separated according to men and women, and were guarded by James and others.

And Wang Xiaode also issued a notice to the villagers to recruit soldiers, according to the standard, the knight can have a maximum of 10 ordinary soldiers. Although no one usually cares how many soldiers a knight is, Wang Xiaode still recruited 10 soldiers from a cautious point of view. In the village, he chose a place near the hill and built a temporary wooden house as his lord's house.
