King’s Kingdom

"Then exchange 400 kilograms of wheat for a grown man!" Theodosius raised the price a bit, after all, he really wanted to facilitate this transaction.

"Your Majesty, my dear, beloved, great and benevolent, wise and wise, majesty with a celestial appearance, I can't even get the cost back for such a price!"

"You have to know that adult men are the most popular among all people, and the price is half that of adult women. Normally, it takes ten full moon silver coins to buy one in the Northern Empire!"

"The price you just gave is the price for an adult woman. If you talk about the cost, I might be able to get it back, but I also have to bear their food and transportation costs. I also have to take this into consideration. !"

The fat businessman sat on the chair and said aggrievedly, the pitiful hair on his head was soaked with sweat and tangled in dreadlocks.

"Can't I get some discounts when I buy in bulk? I think this money is really enough, you must still have a lot of money!" Theodosius sat lazily on the chair and smiled casually. road.

"Really not, Your Majesty, my business is really not good, let's do it, I will give all the prices to the lowest, and I will not earn your money for any freight and food expenses, you can see that Shaq is so sincere to you. For my sake, earn me some hard-earned money, 700 kilograms of wheat for an adult man under the age of 35, 300 kilograms of wheat for an adult woman under the age of 35, and the same price of 200 kilograms of wheat for the elderly and children. What do you think?"

"Tsk..." Theodosius also heard that this price is relatively affordable. After all, people are not livestock, and they will not become the cheapest thing. Taxes, and the ability to join the army as cannon fodder, who can be trained to become qualified warriors, will not be cheap.

In this case, the price offered by the other party is very intriguing, and he also saw some concerns about this fat man.

After all, the Lanyin Kingdom is not the small country it used to be, with a land area of ​​650,000 square kilometers and a population of 1.7 million. It may not be comparable to the country split from the Hilkati Empire, but it rules such a huge country. A country with such a powerful army, this kind of monarch is not something that a small merchant can deceive.

In addition, the Lanyin Kingdom had conflicted with his birthplace, the Northern Empire. Some time ago, it was said that they would fight against the Northern Empire again. Although they failed to fight due to the widespread demonic disaster, at least Prove that the opponent only has this confidence and strength.

In this way, Shaq, whose business scope is mostly in the Northern Empire, naturally has to consider such factors. The two reasons are combined to successfully make this fat man avoid rats and dare not charge excessive prices. Otherwise, who cares about you? What a **** king, as long as you don't care what you are, you will be the one to blame!

Theodosius pondered for a while, and said: "Let's just do it like this, I will give you six hundred kilograms of grain for adult men under thirty-five years old, and three hundred and fifty kilograms for women under thirty-five years old, old people and children. I'll give you two hundred and twenty kilograms, what do you think?"

Fatty Shaq lowered his head and did the math, and found that the price was not too different from the price he had just quoted, and he still made some money. The mourning expression on his face disappeared immediately.

"Thank you for your understanding, the great King of Lanyin, although I still don't make much money, but I am willing to contribute to you, just think it is my servant who has contributed a little to you in advance!" Shaq stood He got up, twisted the sweat-soaked handkerchief, and wiped it on his head.

"Then, I will ask someone to draw up a contract now, you can sign it, and the transaction between us can begin!"

"Very good!" Theodosius nodded and said, "But, you know, I hate people to deceive me the most. If you use those old, weak and sick to fool me, I will definitely have a way to punish you. on the body!"

Hearing Theodosius' threat, Shaq's face was filled with cold sweat again. He had also heard about the cruel methods of the King of Lanyne. People know and pay attention, and paying attention to a country cannot ignore the people who control it.

Therefore, the tortures invented by Theodosius, such as blood eagles, skinning, waterboarding, backdoor meat grinders, etc., and a series of cruel methods like **** have long made many people feel disgusted and horrified.

"Don't worry! Your Majesty, don't worry! Shaq's most important thing is credibility. Besides, if I'm not faithful to you, who else can I be faithful to? Please put a hundred hearts on it!"

After making the promise, with the permission of Theodosius, Shaq left the reception room and returned half an hour later with a contract.

After signing the contract, Shata left New Lanyin City swiftly with his entourage without any further stop.

After leaving the city, Shaq's expression was completely different from that in front of Theodosius, with a smug smile on his face.

In fact, he still has some profits from this transaction, but not so much. It can be about 1/30 of the pure profit, which is lower than the interest rate of selling to others, but the advantage is that it is large and stable. If you keep doing it, you will get a small profit.

What's more, the price of food is changing almost every day~www.readwn.com~ and it's increasing. The intrusion of dark creatures and the division of the country still have an impact on all countries. Agricultural production has been destroyed, and the price of food is natural. is continuing to rise.

If you don't sell the food immediately, but hoard it, it is estimated that you can earn more after a while, and he also expressed his good intentions to King Lanyin when he picked up the plane. If the situation really changes, I can also grab some first. Machine, can be described as a move that kills many birds with one stone.

Like Shaq, Theodosius is also in a good mood. What the Rhine Kingdom lacks now is not food, but currency and population.

The Lanyin Kingdom as a whole is in a plain terrain, which is not only conducive to the galloping of cavalry, but also suitable for agricultural production.

Unlike the mountainous and hilly areas, it is not difficult to reclaim the land on the plains. The area of ​​cultivated land registered in the entire Lanyin Kingdom has reached an astonishing 230 million mu, which is more than one-third of the Song Dynasty in his previous life!

Among them, 190 million mu belonged to the commoners and nobles from all over the world, and the remaining nearly 40 million mu belonged to the royal family, which was the private property of Theodosius. There were also a large number of peasants who belonged to his tenants and cultivated the land for him. .

Because of the protection of the goddess of fertility, coupled with Theodosius' nearly two years of composting, shell and bone meal and other primitive fertilizers, the yield per mu has been increased from 300 kilograms to 500 kilograms.

Although not all farmland in the whole country can use fertilizers, the average yield per mu has reached about 350 kilograms. After removing some of the land that was abandoned and too late for planting, the entire Lanyin Kingdom planted a total of 220 million mu last year. land around.

A total of more than 77 million tons of grain was produced, and 20% of the tax was paid, which means that Theodosius received more than 15.4 million tons of grain last year. This is an extremely exaggerated statement. number.
