After a day's sailing, a boatload of people arrived at the port.
"Everyone, this is the capital of the Viking Kingdom."
"Okay, guys, let's go up and take a look."
Zhang Rang took the Ten Attendants to inspect first, while the young eunuchs and palace maids stayed on the boat.
As soon as the ten people got ashore, they felt a sense of suffocation.
"These people are really different from us Han people. They all have a terrible body odor."
"Yes, the barbarians are barbarians, barbaric and uncivilized."
"Brother, they're not completely useless. At least they look strong and powerful, and they're a good labor force."
I saw the NPCs brought by the lord speaking ill of the white people unscrupulously.
The mercenary leading the way couldn't help but speak.
"Ladies and Gentlemen, white people are the same as Asians. It's just that we have more developed sweat glands, so we tend to smell more."
The Ten Attendants now only have Feng Yun in their eyes, just like they only had Liu Hong in their eyes before.
They didn't take Feng Yun's subordinates seriously at all, but they didn't say anything in rebuttal. The ten of them continued talking to themselves.
"There aren't as many people in the city as in Luoyang, so it seems a bit quiet."
This place is certainly not comparable to Luoyang. Even the Viking capital has quite a few people.
It can’t be said that there were huge crowds of people, but at least there was a constant flow of people.
There are still a lot of people coming and going on the streets.
"The port isn't busy right now, so it doesn't look crowded. Let's go inside the capital. There will be a lot more people there. Nearly half of the people in our Viking Kingdom live in the capital."
This was somewhat unbelievable to the Ten Attendants.
"What? The capital city accounts for half of the country's population? Isn't that crazy?"
"Oh my god, this is unbelievable. What is the population of Viking Country?"
Seeing that several people had finally changed their views on their country, he smiled and said:
"Our Viking nation has a population of about eight million."
"Oh, no wonder. The population is so small, so the country must be small too, right?"
The other party is so angry. The expressions of these people were very interesting just now, but now they start to despise their own country.
"Our Viking Kingdom is not small in Europe. There are hundreds of countries of all sizes in Europe, and we can at least rank in the 90th place."
"All right."
Several people really couldn't find words to praise it, it was really too small.
In the past, these people would not even look at such a country.
Now that I'm down and out, I have no choice.
"Let's go to the city and see if there are any vacant shops."
As soon as someone finished speaking, the guide assigned by Fengyun finally found an opportunity to fight back.
The incorruptible said: "In our capital, land is extremely expensive, so how can there be any vacant shops?"
"No more? Then go see if there are any shops for sale."
"Okay, please follow me."
The guide is quite familiar with Wang Du, otherwise Fengyun would not have sent him.
A few people came into the city, turned a few corners, and came to a real estate agency.
Real estate agents can not only buy, sell and rent bungalows, but also sell and rent shops, land, and even resource points.
They earn information differential, but only within their own city.
"You guys wait here first, I'll go in and ask."
As soon as the guests arrived, someone came to serve them.
"How can I help you?"
"Find me a shop. I want to open one in the city."
"Okay, would you like to rent or buy?"
"Look at the price first, and buy it if it's right."
"Okay, look here, these are the shops, you can choose first."
After that, he listed the information of each store in front of Zhang Rang, including information about hundreds of stores for rent and sale.
It not only lists the price, area and location, but also the people who pass by every day, what their needs are, and even which level these people belong to.
Now Zhang Rang can tell at a glance which store they need.
"We want this one."
The other party looked at the selected store and was very surprised.
"Do you really want this shop? It costs 500 gold coins to rent it for a year."
Zhang Rang frowned when he heard the rent and said:
"Can you sell it? I'll buy it right away."
"You still want to buy? The price is very high. You know, this store has the best location here."
It was because the Ten Attendants knew the geographical location of this store that they decided to buy it without hesitation.
If the business becomes booming and they ask for a rent increase, it would be better to just buy it.
"Yes, you name a price. If the price is right, I will buy it. I don't want to rent it."
"Okay, if you buy it directly, it will cost you 100,000 gold coins."
Zhang Rang was unhappy about this. Under normal circumstances, the price range for renting and purchasing real estate would be between 25 and 50 times.
Now this is two hundred times the rental price, they are definitely being taken advantage of.
What's more, they were still bargaining over the rental price.
"Hey! You guys are not sincere. If that's the case, I'm leaving."
"Sir, please don't leave yet. Listen to me. This shop is our treasure. We never thought of selling it. It's the goose that lays our golden eggs."
"That doesn't make sense. Even the best things should be within a reasonable range. Your price is clearly too high."
But no matter what Zhang Rang said, the clerk refused to lower the price.
Zhang Rang was not in a hurry to continue bargaining at this time. The more anxious he was, the easier it would be for him to be manipulated by the other party.
"Okay then, I don't want it anymore."
Zhang Rang withdrew from the agency without any hesitation.
After coming out, Zhang Rang spread his hands and said:
"I liked a shop, but the price was a bit high, so I didn't buy it."
"Brother, what should we do? Should we buy it?"
"No, the price is too high. It's one hundred thousand gold coins."
"Although the price is a bit high, it is within our budget."
But Zhang Rang shook his head and said:
"Although this money is within the budget, this expense is within the expenditure range. We must try our best to save these expenses."
"Oh, so what should we do?"
Zhang Rang smiled and said:
"Don't you think this agency's business is good?"
Everyone was puzzled and asked:
"Brother, what do you mean? Why are you talking about this agent again?"
"Hahaha, I want to buy this agency, but it's a bit expensive."
"Huh? How can the budget the general gave us be enough?"
Zhang Rang shook his head and said:
"Brothers, we can't just use all our money. We also need to manage our own money. If we can't make money from it, our money will be gone very quickly."
