Looking at the caravan that came here, as well as the countless sheepskins and cowhides they had brought, Han Long and Li Ru both showed a smile.

Of course, these things are not valuable in this boundless grassland, but if these things are taken to Fuling Kingdom, they are quite scarce goods, especially sheepskins, in the cold winter, if you can have a sheepskin jacket, that can withstand how much cold wind.

In addition, cowhide is still a material for making leather armor, although these are not high-quality goods, but in Fuling Country, these will definitely not lack buyers.

And where are the buyers..... At this time, Flame City has become the premier city of Fuling Country!

There is a reason why he is said to be a wealthy city and not a big city.

Until now, Flame City still didn't have any special products, no geographical advantages, but at this time he didn't need these things.

Situ Hao, the city lord of Flame City, is still just a simple city lord of the city.

But now, no one dares to say that the area of Flame City and the various facilities inside will be much weaker than any city in Fuling Kingdom!

At this time, Flame City was already the largest city in the Fuling Kingdom, and the root cause of it was Situ Hao's series of policies.

Removing all taxes except commercial taxes is not something that ordinary people can have, and there are many people who want to follow suit after seeing the benefits of commercial taxes.

But in the end, without exception, they all failed.

There are many reasons for this, not only because the commercial tax in Flame City was the first to start, but also because there are many small things that are not known to everyone.

In the later period, Flame City had completely abolished the agricultural tax and the tax on acres of land, and these things were directly handed over to the imperial court by the City Lord's Mansion, as the current city lord who was second to none in the Fuling Kingdom, he was naturally able to afford this money.

And with this item, even though Flame City does not have countless fertile lands, it can still attract countless civilians.

They would rather reclaim a new wasteland here and start anew, rather than sit back and wait in the previous place, which is to attract talent.

The arrival of a large number of civilians once again stimulated the commerce and consumption of Flame City, and made the caravan of Flame City grow sharply.

Later, in order to allow those people to get through the most difficult period in the early stage, Situ Hao of Flame City also issued a second unique decree under the guidance of Han Long.

All caravans that come and go here must give priority to employing the people of the city!

Of course, in return for Flame City and Situ Hao, thirty percent of the wages of these hired people were compensated by the part of the tax that should have been handed over to the Flame City City Lord's Mansion.

In this way, the cost of hiring buddies in Flame City is much lower than that of those outside.

And the doorway here is not only for the benefit of the people, with local guys, the inside story of many of their caravans cannot be completely preserved, at least the approximate profits of their caravans, Situ Hao wants to find out, then it is really not difficult.

This matter was also understood by those caravans after suffering several losses.

But by the time they came to their senses, Flame City had completely become a climate, and the market and various policies here were too suitable for them to survive.

In order for them to flourish, Situ Hao also spared no expense to help Flame City continue to develop, from the area of the city to the various city defense facilities and the surrounding and internal roads.

He even spared no expense in creating elite soldiers who could be hired by caravans to ensure their safety.

These policies, these results, have made Flame City quickly become a wealthy city, an extremely bold city.

Situ Hao can spend a lot of money to buy a broken outer door exercise for the soldiers under his command, although this exercise is just the most ordinary and ordinary outer door exercise, or only the part under the foundation.

But with his unsparing support, the combat power of the soldiers of this Flame City is also constantly rising.

And coupled with the recent smooth sailing, as well as the continuous supply of various materials, his own cultivation is also constantly growing, although it is not Jindan at this time, but it may not be hopeless to break through Jindan.

Because of these things, not only are many people envious and jealous of him, the suddenly powerful Flame City, but they are also quite jealous of him, and many people in the court want to pick the fruits of the Flame City, but they all fail without exception, just because the current Situ Hao is no longer something anyone can bully.

And today, Situ Hao, who hadn't shown up for a long time, was standing outside the gate of Flame City in person, surrounded by his cronies.

Seeing this scene, the businessman couldn't help licking his lips, there are not many opportunities for this big man to show up, if he doesn't seize this opportunity well, who knows when he will see him next time.

"Situ City Lord, the villain has a three-thousand-year-old ginseng here, which has grown into a human form!"

"Situ City Lord, the villain has recently gotten a few bewitching dancing girls, look at when you have time...."

"Situ City Lord, the villain has a first-class pearl here...."

"The villain recently got a famous painting, you have time to appreciate it...."

All kinds of flattering voices were used from all directions, and countless businessmen and stewards with smiles on their faces walked towards Situ Hao, but before they could walk to Situ Hao's side, they were bombarded by the guards around Situ Hao.

Even so, they kept shouting Situ Han in the distance, not daring to show a trace of bad expression.

Looking at this group of people who were extremely flattering to him, Situ Hao's face showed a smile, a very cold smile.

He likes the current scenery very much, but he still remembers how depressed he was a year ago, and the most he did every day was to lament the unfairness of the world with a few so-called "friends", get drunk together, and talk about the world in the city lord's mansion together.

Those few pitiful government affairs, just like his future, made him feel so bleak.

Until now, he has become a famous city lord, although he is only a second-class city lord, but who dares to shout at him, who dares to have the slightest contempt for him?

He knew who gave him all this, so today no matter what, he had to be here in person, waiting for their arrival, so that those people could also see that he was not a person who did not know how to repay his kindness.

Soon, Situ Hao, who was waiting outside the city gate, saw a caravan approaching, slow and steady, the line was very long, but their team was a little rudimentary, whether it was the guards or those carriages and horses, it was not luxurious.

The appearance of such a team immediately attracted everyone's attention and made everyone full of curiosity about it.

"This is...," a caravan's steward looked at the approaching caravan, his face becoming very strange.

It's not because this caravan has a big shelf or because they turn a blind eye to Situ Hao, who keeps stammering, but also because of a huge caravan, their goods are covered by things at this time, and they can't see what it is at all.

Under everyone's thoughts, soon the leader of the caravan and the city lord of Flame City, Situ Hao, collided together.

"Oh, Mr. Li Ru!" Unlike the arrogance of other people, Situ Hao had already taken the initiative to step forward from afar and greet the old man who seemed to be a little old.

Li Ru did not agree to Situ Hao's request and go back to the City Lord's Mansion with him to bear the wind and dust, but continued to let Situ Hao take him and take him to a trading place, he wanted to see what price these things in his hand could be sold for.

In order to win these things, they also paid a lot of price, although these things are not rare in the boundless grassland, but as a business, both sides still gave a price that they were satisfied with.

If it fails to achieve Han Long's expected income, I'm afraid it will be difficult for Li Ru to explain.

With Situ Hao's escort, Li Ru occupies the best place, looking at the people and businessmen in front of him, Li Ru knows that the current Flame City is indeed not what it used to be.

Situ Hao only knew that Li Ru came back here to sell a batch of goods, and he didn't know what they would sell, so he didn't have much hope for a force that had just gone to the border to gain a foothold.

He had already secretly instructed his housekeeper to find a few fresh faces to wait around, and once the goods here were not good, he would immediately come forward to buy them at a high price, so that their group of people could not hang on their faces.

After Li Ru set up the stall, he waved his hand and ordered the soldiers behind him to open all the things they brought.

And at this moment, everyone can finally see how mysterious this group of mysterious guys has brought mysterious treasures.

The big cloth covering the oxen and carriage finally opened, revealing the things that Li Ru had brought, causing a commotion.

"Shhh..... That's sheepskin?"

"Looks like there's still polished cowhide!"

"These are the two things, but the number is ....."

"This is a man from the steppe!"

Which of the many businessmen is a fool, they naturally will not fail to see what these dozen carts of cow and sheep skins represent.

Cowhides and sheepskins are indeed nothing to these people, but these dozen carts of cow and sheepskins are different, although these things are also in demand, they are not worried about selling.

But compared to what is behind these dozen carts of cattle and sheepskins, it is really much, too bad.

"Old gentleman, these more than a dozen truckloads of goods are all asked for by a certain family!" A businessman was quick to see and directly set all these goods, "The price is as you go, and a certain family will never say a word, just want to invite the old gentleman and a certain family to a restaurant not far away!"
