The second slave business license did not have the "inner box operation", and the price rose rapidly, and in a blink of an eye, it had already shouted the extremely high price of 27,000 gold coins. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoThese businessmen who shout out the price are not stupid, and daring to shout such a high price means that they can get more money out of it. There is only a very small part of the capital in the transaction volume of about 200,000 gold coins in Bell Province a year, and in two years, the price of 50,000 gold coins and a brand can be earned back and there is a surplus.

What's more, Wren promised to crack down on the illegal slave trade in the province of Bell, which was different from other businesses, such as handicrafts. You don't sell it, there are still ones sold elsewhere, and if your price is high, I won't buy it, and it's the same if I buy it somewhere else. But slaves were different, and there were only three slave-producing areas in the Orlando Empire, the steppes in the north, the Salme Mountains in the southeast to the east of Ortrenburg, and the Vagli Mountains in the southwest.

In addition, most of the people living elsewhere are citizens of Orlando. If the slave catcher dares to take action against a citizen without voluntarily selling himself into slavery, it is looking for death. Orlando VI would let these slave traders know what thunderous wrath came from royalty. The royal family has always established a good image and maintained a moral bottom line, whether it is pretending or real, in short, they do just that.

It is conceivable that three business licenses in a slave-producing area can monopolize the slave hunting and slave trade in Bell Province, which is equivalent to taking the lifeblood of one-third of the slave merchants in the empire.

The price has reached 29,000 gold coins as several strangers continue to shout, and the shouting of other forces has become slow, and the most important thing is that there is not enough money in their pockets.

Wren frowned and beckoned, and the captain of the trust guard on the side immediately walked over. He bowed to the hilt of his sword, his movements were meticulous, and he was clearly well educated as an aristocracy. Even more proof of this is the first sentence he said, "Your Excellency, what do you command?"

He uses the word "Your Excellency" instead of an adult or a city lord, and the difference in context is like seeing someone waving his arms and stretching out a few fingers to say "what's.up.man?" with a sense of music. On the other side, he was in a suit and leather shoes, his hair and leather shoes were shiny and reflected all kinds of light, he was carrying a beautiful high-end briefcase in his hand, and the shirt on the cuffs was just an inch more than the cuffs of the suit when he how.do.you.do raised his hand.

The different style made Wren inevitably look at the newly appointed guard captain a few more times, and he asked with some hesitation: "Are you...... Cooper?"

Cooper's legs were together, the spurs in his heels collided together, making a crisp crashing sound, he held his head high, tucked his lower abdomen, and nodded slightly, "Yes, I'm Cooper, at your disposal." ”

His tone was steady, but Wren could still hear a slight tremor in his tone, which was normal. Anyone who understands what the golden aristocracy is will not be too indifferent, this kind of transcendent special group is getting smaller and smaller, and its status is getting higher and higher. Don't look at Wren's descent now, the Golden Thorn has fallen, but as long as there is a slight chance for people to see Wren's potential, then someone will soon praise his stinky feet.

Is the world fair?

It's not fair at all, some things are just innate, no matter how hard you try, it's useless, that's the reality. A big nobleman, a big nobleman who is good at creating miracles, such as Joan of Arc, the first daughter of the empire, even if she fights hard, she is at most a hereditary duke, let alone becoming a golden nobleman, not even a prince can reach it. A family with a divine blood flowing like the Golden Nobles can't be obtained by hard work or anything.

Because of this, Wren had to immediately initiate reforms and wanted to firmly control the city.

Because those who dare to do something to the gold nobles must also be gold nobles and have an equal identity.

In a flash, Wren came back to his senses, and he pointed to the merchants in the third row behind him who shouted the highest prices, and ordered, "Get them out!"

Wren's voice was not hidden, and the people around him could naturally hear it, and several merchants who were happy and sad were suddenly stupid, and the leader of them immediately stood up. He bowed, anxious and angry, but he maintained his demeanor.

He asked, "May I ask the honorable city lord, why did you drive us away?"

Wren was unrelenting and got to the heart of the matter, "I said before that only people from Ortlenburg are allowed to participate in today's sale. It's a pity that I haven't met you, and you're not eligible to participate in the auction!"

The man was stunned for a moment, and quickly explained, "My lord, please listen to me." He looked at the guards who were getting closer and closer, and hurriedly took out a roll of certificates from his arms, "This is my proof of Ortrenburg's naturalization, in fact, since the day before yesterday, I have been an Ortrenburger!"

Wren frowned, raised his hand slightly, and someone spontaneously passed the certificate to him. He read one or two carefully, and it was indeed the certificate issued the day before yesterday.

This world also has a very strict hukou system, which came into being during the first imperial civil strife. The outbreak of the first civil war was due to the difficulty of solving the tax problem, Orlando II simply flipped the table and stopped playing, eliminated all those who were not convinced, and then forcefully implemented the household registration system. As long as the person has a household registration, he must pay the tax, and after the tax is paid, the tax officer will give a tax payment certificate as proof of exemption.

Those who do not have tax payment certificates and cannot find the corresponding files automatically become free people, which is a nice saying, and in other words, it is a pariah. Untouchables were only protected by a portion of the Imperial law, and were expropriated for one to three months per year.

At the same time, the household registration system also ensures that the royal family has a minimum tax and will not be deceived by the local emperors from below.

In this day and age, it's a brain-opening idea.

Wren threw back his family register, stood up, pointed to another Ortrenburger, a merchant he had met several times, and said, "Thirty thousand gold coins, the second business license is yours." ”

The group of merchants suddenly showed surprise on their faces, these slave merchants from Mirin are too strong, let alone 30,000, plus 5,000 gold coins, they may not be able to win, Millin's slave merchants are all united.

The previous man's face turned slightly red, obviously angry by Wren's assignment, he suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a low voice: "I have heard for a long time that a fair and impartial city lord has come to Ortlenburg, is this how you do things?"

Wren actually nodded and said, "Yes, that's what I did." ”

The man took a deep breath and asked, "What about fairness?

Wren laughed a few times, stretched out his slender finger and tapped his chest, "My territory, I have the final say, I am fair, I am notarized." After he finished speaking, he sneered and stared in all directions, "Who is not convinced?"

Everyone lowered their heads, and Wren sat down again, "I won't interfere with the third one, you can do it yourself." ”

When the man heard this, he was stunned again, and immediately apologized, praised Wren a few words, and sat back in his place.

The third license was eventually bought for 41,000 gold coins by the Millin merchants, who had just emigrated to Ortlenburg.

At the moment when the dust fell, Wren walked up to the stage, looked directly at the group of merchants, and said: "I don't care what kind of people you used to be from, what kind of business you did, from the day you joined Ortlenburg, you are Ortrenburgers, and you should contribute your own strength to the city." Regardless of the size of the slave catchers and caravans you are going to organize, I need to make two points. Wren held out two fingers, and a certain degree of body language was more convincing and stressful, "First, all employees, including slave catchers and caravans, must be staffed by Ortlenburg personnel, which is non-negotiable. Those of you who were in the past, if you wish, can join Ortlenburg, and the man must marry me the daughter of a poor family in Ortlenburg, and the woman must marry an Ortrenburger. If someone does not enforce this article, it is tantamount to rebellion. ”

"The second one, Ortlenburg's household registration is permanent, and once you join, you can't quit, I know your little tricks, but I can't play it here. Join other city-states without my consent, and congratulations, I will send a team of over a thousand men to hunt you down throughout the Orlando Empire until you die. I'm not a generous city lord, or even a kind city lord, with my rules of the game, hello everyone, I'm fine, if you don't cooperate? ”

The locals of Ortlenburg applauded, and in their eyes, Wren was not hateful, but very kind. Whether a person is really good to himself or not does not need to rely on the rendering and deception of words, but can feel it by relying on his own heart. Everything that Wren has done since he took office can be said to be racking his brains for the rise of Ortlenburg. Man is not steel, he is an animal with feelings, how can he not maintain such a city lord?

The civilians outside the auditorium also cheered, the establishment of the three major slave merchants and the three major plundering parties was bound to enable more than 3,000 natives, which means that 3,000 families will benefit, and the lives of more than 20,000 Ortrenburgers will be greatly changed!

The city has taken another firm step!
