Chapter 447 Long time no see



Liu Feng was very satisfied after hearing this. Now, his commercial street was truly operational.

"Okay, okay, okay."

Liu Feng was very satisfied with what he heard. He took a few sips of tea and then continued to patrol the commercial street.

Today, the wide streets are filled with a wide variety of goods, and the number of small vendors has reached more than 50.

From fried spring rolls to places selling flowered cloth, from tea stalls to pastry shops, there is everything.

But the one with the best business is the meat shop run by Liehu in the village.

The butcher shop also sells eggs and poultry produced by the village itself.

The price of meat here is much cheaper than other places, so the sales of these things are naturally good.

After a busy day and making money, these small vendors would buy some meat to take home in the evening to satisfy their cravings.

This was also what Liu Feng had agreed with them when they opened the butcher shop.

The price must be reasonable so that these people can afford it, so that it can survive.

If your price is high, people coming and going will just have to watch and it won’t be of any use.

Moreover, most of the prey here were hunted by Wang Dian and his men. No matter how many prey were hunted that day, the amount brought here for sale was fixed.

Because some of it was used to feed the army, and the largest part of it was used as food reserves, which were dried and stored to be used in case of siege.

Therefore, the butcher shop's business is particularly good. After all, these wild game that are not usually available will be gone if you come too late.

Moreover, only by eating meat can people quickly recover their physical strength and have the energy to continue working.

Take the Tiger Roar Army for example. Although Liu Feng always ensures that their men are well-fed and will never let them go hungry, meat is not available every day.

The army’s food would only be improved every now and then.

This is equivalent to a major supply point for meat.

If it were somewhere else, the villagers would not have enough food to eat, and would only eat grass roots and tree bark every day. Where would they get the money to buy meat?

It is precisely because this is Zhengde County that we have such treatment, with food and accommodation.

In addition to saving part of the money, these villagers naturally think about how to improve their lives with the remaining money. This is human nature and there is nothing wrong with it.

And there will be a mentality of comparison between people.

This makes the butcher shop's business better.

Basically, the meat brought in every day is sold out.

There is also animal fur, that is, ordinary fur, which is too expensive, so I will sell some occasionally.

But after all, animal fur is not a necessity. Who would keep using fur to make clothes? The cost is too high, so there are still a lot of furs stored.

Further ahead is the cloth shop in Zhengde County.

The looms that Liu Feng brought back before are now running at full capacity every day for his own production. In addition to the spoils obtained from the previous bandit suppression and other channels, the cloth shop is now filled to the brim.

"That's right. Now it looks like a county town. If we keep going like this, we'll have a lot of fiscal revenue over time. Then the next thing we need to do is cut public spending."

Ever since I started making money, I have invested too much in the villagers of Siwa Village.

It's time for them to give back.

We previously provided various things, including food and accommodation, in order to keep people in Siwa Village.

But things are different now. People are slowly hiding away, merchants are also coming, and the next step is for major commercial banks to move in.

Now that the money has started to circulate.

Then we have to consider how to make money from money, otherwise if the army continues to expand in the future, food, fodder, and weapons will all require money.

Liu Feng was thinking about these issues, wondering how to start collecting taxes step by step.

Suddenly someone called me.

"Brother-in-law, what are you doing?"

Liu Feng turned around slightly and saw that it was Mu Shaoguang.

Come to think of it, I haven't seen this guy for a long time.

It should be since the last battle with the Northern Barbarians, when this guy was scared silly and I haven't seen him since he came back.

But I heard that after experiencing the last life-and-death crisis, this guy is much braver than before.

However, after returning that time, he rested for a full half month, during which time the Mu sisters visited him several times.

I heard from people in the county that after this guy returned to the county government office, he boasted about his heroic achievements everywhere. It seemed that he was promoted to the head of a squad, in charge of twenty or thirty yamen runners.

The monthly salary also increased from a pitifully small amount to five cars, and with the position of team leader and various gifts, he became a well-known figure in Wenhuang County today.

But how did this guy have time to come to his own Zhengde County?

Logically speaking, he should be sitting in the duty room and giving orders.

Seeing Liu Feng's surprised expression, Mu Shaoguang chuckled.

"Brother-in-law, I have already quit my job at the county government office."

"Brother-in-law, you are now the county magistrate of Zhengde County."

"So I brought my brothers to join you."

Liu Feng understood instantly, it turns out that you think my thighs are thicker now, so you are here to hug my thighs.

Liu Feng smiled calmly.

After all, he is my brother-in-law, so it’s not wrong for him to curry favor with me.

Although the county government office is still under construction, the staff can be organized in advance.

My brother-in-law is my own person after all and can be trusted completely. He has worked in the county government for so many years, so why not do it?
