Be the Mayor From Today

Liu Feng watched everyone's rapid breathing, the corners of his mouth rose, and he said softly, "Boxing matches are held four times a year, and there is a match every quarter."

The people below stared wide-eyed, everyone was stunned by the reward, especially the first place reward, there was a gold coin, which made many people who did not sign up for the competition very annoyed.

Needless to say, the one with the heaviest gold content is the first place. A single gold coin can make the commoners live a good life for several years.

Many people have decided to sign up for the next quarter, and it is predictable how brutal the next quarter's boxing will be.

"Then, let's start the game." After Liu Feng shouted, he sat back on the chair.

Other things will be arranged by someone, such as Niu Da, who is going to be a referee. Recently, he also likes boxing. He also asked Liu Feng for a few sets of boxing gloves, and practiced against Niu Er and the others at home.

"Lord City Lord, which player do you like?" Solo, who was sitting on a staircase under the high platform, raised his head and asked, "I want to make a good bet!"

The high platform that Liu Feng sat on was the kind of two-step staircase. He was sitting in the highest position, and the next step was where Tori, Buff, and Ryan sat.

"I don't know yet. After all, it's just the beginning. Betting or something depends on your luck." Liu Feng said indifferently.

The bet he said was a gambling market opened by Liu Feng. For example, if the game has not yet started, you predict who will win the first place. As long as you win after the game ends, you will lose ten.

Also, for those who guessed the first, second, and third places, they would lose one hundred and eighty times; and for those who were eliminated by guessing, whoever was the first to be eliminated would lose one to one...

Anyway, there are dozens of ways to play, and the most powerful one is to guess the order from the first to the eighteenth. If he wins, Liu Feng will directly lose 1,800 gold coins.

As soon as this bet came out, everyone was stunned. Many people tried to buy it. After all, the minimum bet was a steel coin. Many civilians who tried it out bought it. Maybe they stepped on shit. Are you in luck?

There are also many people who know the probability of guessing in the order of 1 to 18, and I am afraid that they may not be able to guess once in a hundred years.

Therefore, they all started to guess the top three, and they did not guess the order, but only guessed the three people. Although the multiples were not as high as the order of guessing, they were also very interesting.

Xiao Lai was holding a box. He was the person who came to collect the bets.

The receipt for the gambling ticket is the carbon paper newly developed by the scientific research department according to Liu Feng's request. A special kind of paper is soaked in ink for a few days, and then dried, and then placed between two sheets of paper with goose feathers on it. After the pen is finished, the lower sheet of paper leaves writing on the lower sheet of paper because the carbon paper is squeezed by the quill pen.

The copied one will be given to the bettor, and the one written with a quill pen will be kept as a proof for comparison when redeeming the prize.

"Here!" Soroyan shouted.

"Here." Xiao Lai came to Solo with the wooden box in his arms. He first gave Liu Feng a salute.

"I want to buy the top three, not in order, number seven, number ten, number seventeen! The bet is a silver coin." Solo said, took a silver coin from his pocket and handed it to Xiao Lai. The maximum bet is up.

Liu Feng didn't want the commoners to be immersed in gambling, so he imposed a lot of restrictions, such as the amount limit, and one person could only buy one.

"Okay, please wait a moment." Xiao Lai took the notepad from the box, which was the copy of Liu Feng's notepad used by the scientific research department.

Xiao Lai turned to the latest page, carefully took out a page of black carbon paper from a small box, stuffed it between the two pages, and wrote quickly.

After writing, Xiao Lai also took out a small box from the box and opened it to reveal a red piece inside. This is also the ink pad made by the scientific research department, which was made by soaking cork in red plant juice according to Liu Feng's request.

Xiao Lai handed the ink pad to Solo and said, "This gentleman, please press your thumbprint."

"Okay!" Solo still knew about the contract, like some nobles who cut their thumbs and left their marks with blood. Solo thumbed down on the red ink pad, then left a thumbprint on the two pages.

"Ch..."

Xiao Lai tore off the ticket under the carbon paper and handed it to Solo, "Please keep the ticket. After winning the lottery, you can redeem the ticket with this ticket."

"Here!" Xiao Lai quickly walked away when he saw someone recruiting him again.

Today, he was called by Deputy Director Niu to help him. He heard that after the game, he would receive three hundred copper coins as a reward.

"Uh..." Solo looked at the bill in his hand, this one was clearly not the one he wrote just now, he looked down at the bill in his hand, his eyes widened, and exclaimed, "Huh? How is this possible? ?"

This bill is actually exactly the same as what that person wrote. Although some places are a little blurry, it can still be distinguished.

"This, Lord City Lord, what is this?" Solo asked with the ticket, he felt that this was the most incredible.

He was thinking, if there is such a magical thing, if you do business with people, you will not be afraid of being fooled by others.

"Oh, it's the carbon paper newly researched by the City Lord's Mansion." Liu Feng said calmly.

He underestimated the people in the scientific research department. He didn’t expect to ask him to get the carbon paper in two or three days. Although it will stain and not last long enough, it can fully meet the needs at this stage.

"Lord City Lord, when will the big market be available?" Solo asked nervously.

Chapter 0235 Big dog?

"Buy? No, no... Carbon paper is still in the experimental stage. It may take some time before it is actually sold on the market."

Liu Feng shook his head. For the research of the scientific research department, at least the latest generation of products must be released before the products of the old generation will be put on the market.

This is called the accumulation of technical products. It is a bit like the fruit mobile phone company on the other side of the world. They released the fruit machine six. Then, the fruit company must have accumulated the fruit machine seven.

The advantage of all this is that you can have enough time to make adjustments. Even if someone else comes up with something more advanced, you can release your own accumulated next-generation products in the next moment, and have always been in a leading position.

How important is the number one position in the industry? There is no need to say more, everyone thinks of you as the first, and the choice will also be the first, and the other options are the screening of price.

"Lord City Lord, can't you really sell it to me? I can bid a high price."

Solo was a little anxious. He was tricked by those unscrupulous businessmen a few times. It was on the contract issue. This time he left the capital because a businessman falsely accused him of having a problem with the quantity of goods.

There was a businessman from the north who offered a high price and asked for a large quantity. Then, when the handover was handed over, the quantity and quality were checked. Both parties said there was no problem, and they signed a contract with each other.

But it didn't take long for the businessman to go back and say that the amount he gave was wrong, and asked Solo to make up for the missing 20% ​​of the goods, which made Solo angry.

Make up 20% of the goods, doesn't that make him lose money?

Originally, that batch of goods was Solo who wanted to develop the northern business line, and he had lowered the price to attract merchants from the north, and there was not much profit.

This matter is not a big deal at first, as long as you show the contract written during the handover, you can solve it.

But the final problem lies in this contract. The northern businessman sued Solo to the administrative officer of the capital, and took out the contract and asked Solo to make up the missing quantity.

Solo was so angry at the time, he took out the contract to confront him on the spot, but found that there was a certain number in the other party's contract that did not correspond to his.

Needless to say, Solo knew that the other party had changed the numbers. The contracts of this era were all handwritten, and there was a clear gap between the two contracts.

At this time, the administrative officer also didn't know whose contract to believe was real and who was forged, and the matter also broke up unhappily.

But then something disgusting happened to Solo. The northern businessman actually spread rumors in the capital, saying that he was an unscrupulous businessman, lacking jins and liang, etc., which affected his reputation a bit. As for the northern business route, it was completely Broken.

After making trouble with Solo, leave the capital directly to relax, and by the way, make some business that can be done.

Solo encounters disputes like this once or twice a year. They are all caravans from outside the Kingdom of Yingluo. Those people are just like wild dogs. As long as there are profit loopholes that can be drilled, they will use all means. If you can't get it, it's also disgusting.

"Oh?" Liu Feng also saw that Solo was in a hurry. Thinking of the use of the other party's caravan in the future, it was not impossible to sell him some of the test items.

"The price is not cheap!" Liu Feng said lightly.
