Lord of Riding and Slashing

Chapter 157 Food Price

Nord is sitting in front of the desk, leaning on the chair with his hands folded on his chest. This posture is more comfortable for Nord. If Butler Abel is in the study, Nord must not dare to pose in this posture, otherwise he will wait until there is no one. Will be nagged by him non-stop, no matter the previous life or this life, what Nord is most afraid of is nagging.

The old Moore is sitting opposite Nuode. Nord is not so strict about the rules. If it is not necessary, Nord will sit down with them to discuss things. If Nord is sitting and they are standing, Nord will be very uncomfortable.

"You may have to go back later, so take the bow and arrow squadron of Nanshanzhai with you, and just take the captives with you. When you arrive, just hand it over to Hansen, let them go to the mine to dig, and then I will make other arrangements, so you don't have to worry too much."

Old Moore had a pensive look on his face. He pondered for a while, as if he had thought of something. After these months of experience in Nanshanzhai, Old Moore became calmer, and his views on things gradually changed. Turning thoughtful, he looked up to Nord and asked:

"Then after delivering the captives, should I take the archers back to Nanshanzhai or stay in Tammi Village? The mountain people in the archers of Nanshanzhai still have a lot of freshness to the outside world, and they don't have to go back for a while."

In fact, Nord has been thinking about this issue carefully for a long time. Because the archer squadron climbed the city wall at the back, the casualties were not very serious. It is not like the spearman squadron, which has basically lost its combat effectiveness and needs to be replenished immediately. Okay, so Nord intends to let the archer team stay in Tammy Village temporarily, and by the way, it can also deter these prisoners and prevent people from escaping.

"You should stay in Tammy Village and wait for orders. I will rush back to Tammy Village after I finish handling the matter of Fort Isaac. I will give you an order at that time. In the next few days, you will help Hansen take good care of this group of people. Prisoners, don't let them make trouble in Tammy Village."

Old Moore nodded heavily, expressing that he had understood Nord's order. Nord was still very relieved of Old Moore's work, so after he nodded, Nord did not ask him too much, and just let him He set off immediately, and it was just past noon now. If he was ready to set off immediately, he could return to Tammy Village before dark.

Looking at the back of Old Moore, Nord thought in his mind whether he had missed anything. After all, it was the first time that Nord ruled such a large territory. Micun is completely different.

This is a real Viscounty, which is completely different from the castrated version of Nord's Viscounty. In fact, logically speaking, a village is only the scope of a barony, although there are about a hundred miles of mountainous areas added. , Tammy Village is not qualified as a Viscounty at all.

It is certain that Nord was cheated, but Nord does not have the strength to argue with the House of Nobles. After all, the House of Lords has a very special status on the entire continent. He is qualified to participate in all kinds of affairs of the nobles. Although he does not have military strength in his hands, he still has considerable power.

Every country on the mainland has a noble house, but they do not have a relationship of affiliation with each other, and they only exchange some information with each other. I heard that the institution of the noble house was also established by the Erisin Empire that unified the mainland at that time.

The empire used the House of Nobles to help the nobles govern their territories. At that time, its power was overwhelming, but now its glory has ended with the glory of the empire.

A skinny camel is bigger than a horse, so Nord can only eat a dumb loss. Who made Nord easy to bully at that time? It is a well-deserved piece of fat in Veron City. Everyone wants to take a bite. Recite silently in my heart, thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don't bully the young and poor (hahaha).

But now with the addition of the Krissen family's territory, Nord is very satisfied. This is equivalent to a large viscount territory. Now it is Nord's turn to be fat, and the kind with a mouth full of oil. Now Nord has some Indigestion, because there are not so many people managing so many places.

At least the three villages under Fort Isaac, Nord will not be able to take care of them for a while, but Nord will take a good look at them tomorrow. Holding tightly in his hand, the meat in his own bowl will be left for the next meal if he can't eat it. Nord is very hungry now.

Scholars Hill led a group of people to the market very quickly. Because of the war yesterday, the market today was extremely deserted. There were no shops open at all. These merchants were first frightened by Butler Barry. Then a war broke out, and basically all those who could run were gone.

Those who remained were also hiding in the house and did not dare to go out. They were afraid that the battle would affect them, so the gates were tightly closed. No one dared to go out, not even going out to inquire about the news. The two sides in the battle will decide the winner.

Under the leadership of Harry, Scholars Hill came to the grain store. There was no special office in the market. Before that, Butler Barry managed the market very loosely. As long as the taxes can be paid on time, other matters are left to the merchants themselves. solve.

It really can't be solved, butler Barry will deal with these things in the grain store or in the castle, but Butler Barry still believes that one more thing is worse than one less thing, so there are very few opportunities to discuss things in the market, only when it comes to collecting taxes, Butler Barry will care.

After arriving at the grain store, the first thing Scholar Hill asked Harry to do was to lower the price of grain. There was a sign at the door of the grain store, which stated the daily price of grain, but since the Krissen family opened the grain store, Since then, the number on the sign has never dropped, and the number is higher every time.

I don't know how many civilians starved to death because of this, but compared to their humble lives, the Krissen family prefers shiny coins, but this time the price of food is really going to come down, so Nord can't see the blood and sweat of civilians Money, especially this kind of behavior of raising food prices, must be condemned by God.

"What was the price of grain in the previous grain store?"

After Scholar Hill entered the grain store, he took a look around, especially the layout of the store and the small granary at the back. After all, this grain store will be managed by Scholar Hill in the future. Nord believes that the grain store should still be managed by the administrator. Good, because it can be used to regulate food prices.

But Nord does not prohibit other merchants from selling food. As long as they do business properly and pay taxes on time, Nord will not prohibit any commercial behavior, even if they may have a conflict of interest with Nord's own shop, Nord believes that The market will make a reasonable choice.

When Scholars Hill asked about the price of grain, Harry hesitated a bit. He still had a conscience, knowing that the price of grain was very high before, so he was a little ashamed, but he couldn't help answering the questions of Scholars Hill. In the end, Harry blushed and replied in a low voice:

"The previous grain price has reached 45 copper shells per catty."

Scholar Hill had a panoramic view of Harry's reaction just now, and at the same time he was very surprised at the high price of grain in the grain store. Scholar Hill knew that when the price of grain in Tammy Village was the highest, it was only fifteen copper shells.

If it was replaced by yam, it would only cost five copper shells at most. Although the price of yam could not be compared with that of wheat, the price in the grain store was considered sky-high. How could the common people live.
