Three days later, Su Yuqing replied to Yechen and agreed to Yechen's condition that he could sell a large number of low-grade medicinal herbs purchased by Shanhailou to Jiangyin City.

According to his promise, Yechen gave Shanhailou enough care, at least in the pill industry, to let Shanhailou sit big.

In the morning, in Pingdan City, in a street, Lao Li, who is in his forties, picked up the green vegetables and sold them, and half of them had been sold as soon as the sun rose.

"Is this your dish?" a butler's man passed by, standing in front of Lao Li and looking at him condescendingly, and behind the butler, there were two servants carrying dishes.

Seeing this housekeeper, Lao Li's face was a little ugly.

"Why don't you speak, don't you look down on Lao Tzu?" said the housekeeper with some impatience.

"No, it's not. Hello this lord, my dish..."Lao Li hurriedly said, these nobles are not something he can offend.

"Okay, okay, needless to say, I bought all your dishes. The housekeeper said, listening to this, Lao Li's face became even more ugly.

"Come on, take these dishes away. The housekeeper didn't care whether Lao Li agreed or not, and said to the servant behind him, and then the housekeeper threw Lao Li a bag of money.

Lao Tzu could only watch as the servant took away all the remaining dishes, then opened the money bag and counted carefully, and there were only a hundred black gold coins.

10,000 black gold coins are equivalent to one purple gold coin, and black gold coins are the main currency of ordinary people.

"Alas!" Lao Li sighed lightly, the dish that could have been sold for two hundred black gold coins was only sold for one hundred black gold coins, plus the black gold coins sold before, it was only three hundred. When he entered the city, he was also deducted by the tax collector at the gate of the city from the tax rate of 20%, and the tax rate of 20% was calculated according to the market value of 400 black gold coins, that is, 80 black gold coins.

Once the vegetables were planted with hard work, they were originally worth four hundred black gold coins, and in the end, only two hundred and twenty black gold coins were obtained, and after removing the cost, they only earned more than one hundred black gold coins, and they could only eat for ten days for a family.

The people at the bottom live a very hard life.

Lao Li sighed lightly, he is used to this kind of life, or rather, he has become numb, maybe numbness is lucky, otherwise when you are powerless to fight fate, the indifference to fate will make people more painful.

"Lao Li, sold out?" A young man walked in front of him, this young man would carry a basket of radishes to sell in Pingdan City every day, and this person was very talkative, coming and going, everyone was familiar with each other.

"yes, sold out. Lao Li barely squeezed out a smile, "Your radish, there are so many left, you have to work hard to sell it." ”

The young man seemed to be in a good mood, and said very domineeringly: "Lao Tzu doesn't care if it can be sold today, anyway, from tomorrow onwards, I won't sell vegetables here, I'm going to Jiangyin City." ”

"Oh!" Lao Li replied lightly, he couldn't figure out what young people thought, anyway, they were all selling vegetables, where did they come from.

"Hey, Lao Li, look at your expression, you don't know. The young man smiled, "I've heard that in Jiangyin City, farmers don't need to collect taxes when they sell vegetables." ”

"No taxes? Lao Li smiled, revealing two rows of big yellow teeth, "No taxes, what does the official eat." ”

"You don't understand that. The young man said, "Have you ever heard of Yechen? It is the young hero who killed the alien race, he is the person from Jiangyin City, he officially announced that in the future, the peasants and fishermen will not have to pay taxes, and no one is allowed to sell vegetables in the market, you think about it, that kind of big hero, even the martial king of the alien race is killed, can he deceive the little people like us?"

"Jiangyin City, I have been there once, and it will take several days to pass from here. Lao Li was a little moved by what he said.

And with their conversation, there are also a lot of vegetable sellers around, a young man named Dahu said: "I also heard the news, anyway, the road is not far, we mud legs, are we still afraid of walking, our village decided to go over to see together, if it is true, move the whole village over, and build a small village near Jiangyin City, anyway, we are not afraid of no land, and I heard that Jiangyin City is close to the Lanjiang River, there is river irrigation, and the land is more fertile." I've also heard that if you don't want to farm, you can catch fish, and if you go to an official boat, you can get paid, and I heard that there are 100 black gold coins a day. ”

"A hundred, so many. "Someone is very excited.

"The current Jiangyin City is no longer the Jiangyin City it used to be. The young man who spoke before said, "The people there are living a good life, and General Yechen Ye is from the common people, so he takes good care of us people at the bottom." ”

"I want to go, I don't farm anymore, I want to be a soldier and eat military salary, I also heard that the dragon-blooded warriors in Jiangyin City can eat several catties of meat and half a catty of wine for each meal. Dahu Dao, the surrounding vegetable farmers, subconsciously licked their lips, there was meat to eat and wine to drink, this was like heaven for them.

The crowd said a word, I said a word, and the young man who spoke to Lao Li at the beginning quietly withdrew from the crowd, he wanted to find the next target, and then tell the other old farmers these gossip.

With the expansion of the population of Jiangyin City, the supply of food must also be raised, so farmers and fishermen are the main groups to be introduced in Jiangyin City this time, and with their coming, they will drag their families with them, and some of their children may join the army in the future, may be a genius, and may be an important general under the command of Yechen in the future.

Only when the population is larger can countless lives be created.

Under Liu Qingyang's unremitting publicity, the various benefits of Jiangyin City spread throughout the surrounding cities through various gossip, and spread farther through various gossip.

In the study, Yechen took Liu Qingyang's report, nodded with satisfaction, and said to Liu Qingyang who was standing in front of him: "It's good, but the few cities around Dandan are still too few, go to a farther place, use the big ship, and then transport him back, if the population of Jiangyin City is 100 million one day, I will pass on a respectable exercise to you." ”

"Ah, my subordinates must do their best. Liu Qingyang was overjoyed, such a temptation made his whole person excited, and now he was still practicing the king-level exercises given to him by Yechen, which could not be compared with the honorable exercises at all. And to get the population to 100 million, it is much easier than accumulating wealth to buy emperor-level exercises.

However, Liu Qingyang secretly glanced at Yechen, and secretly said in his heart, does Jiangyin City need so many people? For the first time, he felt that Yechen's ambition was even greater than he imagined.
