Chapter 81: Markets
At present, there are only a few generals in the new country, Tian Dan, Wang Xuan, Hao Meng and Meng Ben, of course, only Tian Dan and Wang Xuan can lead the army independently.
These two people are strong enough, and there is no need to worry about the degree of loyalty, Hao Meng is actually barely strong, but Ren Tian doubts his loyalty, and will definitely not hand over the legion to him, otherwise if there is really a war in Xinguo, it is estimated that Hao Meng will pull his legion away.
Hao Meng Hao Meng, not cute at all.
In Ren Tian's heart, the importance of the four generals is naturally Hao Meng at the bottom, Hao Meng doesn't even have a special title, in fact, he just has one more skill than ordinary generals.
As for Meng Ben, there is no doubt that the fierce general, and the poor commander's points are even more unsuitable to be a commander.
After such careful calculation, there are only two legions that can be pulled out to fight independently, the Praetorian Guard Legion and the Yamazi Army, and the remaining two legions are still recruiting soldiers, and there is no suitable candidate for the commander of the legion.
This can only be done slowly, and without a commander, these soldiers can only be used to garrison the city for the time being, and they will not be able to fight in the field at all.
All kinds of chaotic thoughts flashed through Ren Tian's mind, and Ren Tian suppressed these thoughts and said, "Go to the market." ”
"Yes."
The little eunuch immediately led the way in front, walked out of the northern city, and then walked south, the entire Dongcheng district along the central street near the river, where a large area was originally a large number of residential houses, but at this moment all the land has been expropriated and converted into a small-scale market.
Nearby houses have already received subsidies and bought land to build houses in the rest of the city, which is the same as the current monetized resettlement of shantytowns.
Ren Tian stood in front of him, this market is the kind that runs through, there are four gates before and after, the gate is open, red lacquered solid wood, there are many caravans near the market, all kinds of goods are placed, and the market is shoulder to shoulder.
Curious, Ren Tian walked in.
There are many people in this market, and many people from Nanxian County are shuttling in this market, and there are people on the ground covered with cloth, and there are all kinds of goods on it, and some people have brought a table.
It still seems to be in order, there are nearly a hundred stalls here, large and small, and behind each stall are different caravans, and there are also some residents of Nanxian who want to do business, so they rent some stalls.
"Good silk, take a look at it."
"Jingzhou ceramics, smooth ceramics."
"Do you need farm tools? I have Weizhou farm tools here, and the latest model is lighter. ”
"Tea leaves, tea leaves, spring tea picked after spring this year, sold cheaply."
All kinds of noisy voices echoed in the market, so lively, Ren Tian nodded secretly in his heart, and even clicked on the building like the market, and took a look at the commercial tax rate, the current commercial tax rate is not high, the standard tax rate index, 3%.
Historically, there are many kinds of commercial taxes, such as taxes and residence taxes, but all of them are unified in the game, and the tax rate for caravans entering the city and the tax on market sales are the same.
This method is also more reasonable, for this tax rate, Ren Tian does not want to increase or decrease the idea, increasing taxes will invisibly drive out those caravans, and reducing taxes will greatly attract caravans to come, but the current purchasing power of Nanxian County is like this, the market size is not much, not cost-effective.
There are also some caravans in the market that buy and sell ploughing cattle, Ren Tian took a look, and there were special personnel standing there in the stalls, and when he met people, he asked, "Do you want to buy ploughing cattle?" It's not expensive, just one gold and twenty silver. ”
"Do you want to plough the ox? The best ploughing cattle, both male and female, are all outside the city, if you want someone to take you over to see? ”
Cattle are no longer able to enter the city, so these caravans are all placed in nearby villages.
Around these people, there were many people around, and some people took them to the village to see the cattle.
Ren Tian walked around the market and began to look at the goods.
Eyes swept over, and the information of the same goods popped up.
Item: Oil-paper umbrella
Introduction: The oil paper umbrella made in Huangzhou can be used to play umbrellas when it rains, and the price is 10 copper coins.
Very cheap oil-paper umbrella, Ren Tian smiled, and looked at the rest of the items again.
Item: Green salt
Introduction: The best green salt produced in Qingzhou is priced at 25 copper coins per catty (note: this item is smuggled goods, and it is reported to the market management officials to drive this caravan out of the city).
Ren Tian was a little surprised, can he still smuggle?
However, salt and iron have always been monopolized by the state in ancient times, and salt was originally a matter of getting rich, and it can be regarded as a skill to smuggle salt.
Ren Tian shook his head, smuggling is smuggling, anyway, what is smuggled is not the goods of his own country, there is only one salt source in the new country, and the supply of salt is barely enough, and the fact that these traders can provide salt is also an additional supplement.
Ren Tian walked a few steps again, and involuntarily, Ren Tian stopped in front of a stall.
When the merchant saw someone stopping, he immediately said with anticipation, "Guest, do you want to see something?" ”
Ren Tian looked at the other party: "These are all drawings?" ”
"Yes, do you need it? These things are used to forge and sell to the army, which can definitely be earned, even if they are not sold to the army, they are much better than ordinary items. ”
The man was chattering, but in front of Ren Tian, there were several pieces of drawing information.
Recipe: Thick leather helmet
Purpose: +5 Defense, +10 Fatal Attack Defense, +0.5 Weight
Introduction: The thick leather helmet produced by the state, the blacksmith learns the drawing, and can create the thick leather helmet of the state, which has a thicker defense than the ordinary helmet.
Drawing: Paneled leather armor
Purpose: Defense +15, Weight +1.0
Introduction: The protective leather armor produced by the state, the blacksmith learns the drawing, and can create the state paneled leather armor, which has better defense than ordinary leather armor.
In addition, there are three drawings, namely the Bingzhou Gauntlets, the Bingzhou Leather Pants, and the Bingzhou Straw Shoes, which are basically items and equipment that a soldier needs.
Ren Tian looked at these drawings, and inexplicably remembered the introduction in the previous market building: 'When the player visits the microserver privately, there will be a small chance of finding treasures in the market', these drawings are simply more affordable than treasures!
If you can create a set of equipment and equip the soldiers in batches, the defense will definitely be greatly improved, and the survival rate and combat effectiveness of the battlefield can also be greatly improved!
You must know that in addition to those attributes on the surface, equipment and defense are also useful, but they are not reflected in a specific and intuitive way, if the equipment of the entire legion is replaced, at least the combat effectiveness will rise to a level, even if it is not changed, these five drawings are bought by themselves, and they will definitely not suffer.
So Ren Tian directly interrupted the businessman's words: "I want all five drawings." ”
