"Huh? Foxes still have such privileges here?"
County Lord Luanming had a look of astonishment on his face and looked at the government officials who were still shocked. The government officials glanced at Su Yan with lingering fear and nodded wildly, proving that the foxes in the Red King's fief do indeed have privileges.
The treatment of the fox may not be good during his lifetime, but after the death of the fox, it will be a bloody storm. The fox in the Red King's fief is no different from the seducing immortal.
Ordinary people would hide if they could when they saw a fox. If they couldn't hide, they would surrender honestly. After feeding and drinking the fox, they would run away immediately. They were afraid that the wild fox would suddenly die in front of them and trigger a search by the Red King's army. .
The visit of the Red King's army ranged from a mere family member to Sibi, to a more severe visit to the family tree of the nine clans.
Living in a small border town, they are already poor. They really can't withstand the torment of the Red King's army. When they see a fox, they will naturally hide as far away as possible, fearing that the fox will stick to them and refuse to leave, leaving them to feed them. It passes away.
"It's absolutely amazing. It's really amazing."
Zhou You looked at Su Yan with admiration on his face, and couldn't help but say: "Brother Su's status has been improved again!"
In the main city of Xia Yu, Su Yan had already relied on his fox appearance to eat and drink, and became a fox-faced person. He also won the first place in the fox tasting competition and received a reward from the emperor.
In the Red King Territory, it became even more awesome and became a protected animal.
Seeing a winner in life like Su Yan, Zhou You couldn't help but recall what Brother Wen once said:
"Brother Zhou, do you want to hang yourself? Let's hang ourselves together and then be demon brothers in the next life. Well, Xia Yu fox demon."
………………
Because the fox's treatment was too outrageous, Su Yan was ridiculed by his companions, with a look of surprise on his face.
"Go! Go! Go"
Su Yan rolled his eyes, dismissed the accomplices around him and said, "In Xia Yu, I could make money by performing arts, but when I came to the Red King's territory, I became the god of plague. How do you think we can make money now? Everything is difficult at the beginning, and we can't raise money now. Start-up capital doesn’t do anything.”
The easy way to make money by performing arts was cut off. Now that Su Yan wanted to raise start-up capital, he shouldn't say that if he wanted to improve his life, he could only rely on gambling. Unlike Xia Yucheng where her aunt was watching, Su Yan actually didn't plan to earn spiritual stones through this in the first place.
Because the risk is too great, who wouldn’t want a fox that is sure to win every bet, looks cute, and takes care of itself?
As for blackmailing by protecting the identity of an animal, Su Yan just thought about it and threw it out of his mind. Protecting the identity of an animal is a hopeless life-saving measure and should not be used unless it is a last resort.
Such behavior is like cheating. There are many ways to deal with scoundrels. If Su Yan engages in blackmail, the local clans have many ways to make him disappear. They don't even have to kill him personally and take him to some deep mountains and forests or war-torn places. Just throw it away.
It doesn't matter whether Su Yan dies or not, as long as he doesn't see you for decades.
"So, Brother Zhou, let's go to Flower City to see if there is any way to make a fortune!"
After weighing various methods of making money, Su Yan thought it would be better to go shopping on the street first, and then go to the theater to earn some living expenses and buy some bedding, furniture and other daily necessities for himself and his friends.
"You guys should all follow us and protect us so that we can highlight our temperament as children of a rich family."
While talking about going out, Su Yan did not forget to ask the government officials to follow him as bodyguards.
With the presence of the government officials as bodyguards, it is equivalent to covering oneself with a layer of officialdom. Although the Huaguan Bureau has no real power, there is no one who dares to directly engage in violent confrontation with the officialdom.
If you let the yamen follow you, you can reduce at least 80 to 90% of the troubles, or let Bo Xilou open a quick compensation channel for you.
………………
Su Yan and Zhou You left the official office and came to the streets of Flower City.
This place is very different from Xia Yu City. There are no lively scenes on the streets. The width and smoothness of the roads cannot be compared with the main city. Even Su Yan's hometown city is slightly inferior and there is nothing new.
"Why are there no stalls on the street?" Su Yan looked at the government servant behind him and asked.
"Boss, you don't know this. Our flower area is different from other areas. The big boss strictly prohibits street vendors. No matter who they are, they need to set up stalls in the designated areas to eliminate all possible tax evasion. Situation," the officer said.
"The tax rates for traffickers and shops are different."
The flower area under the jurisdiction of the Red King does not put humanity first. They collect taxes as convenient as they can. Even if they cannot collect taxes, they still need to earn a stall fee from the peddlers.
"So that's it. Is there a Wanhua Pavilion in our Flower City?" Su Yan thought for a while and asked.
"Well, we don't have top-notch fences like Wanhua Pavilion here, and we don't open them in chaotic cities."
Wanhua Pavilion is for earning spiritual stones. A small city like Flower City with a high war index cannot attract Wanhua Pavilion to open a shop here.
"Brother Su, have you thought of a way to make money?"
Zhou You on the side saw Su Yan asking some pointed questions to the government officials, so he asked Su Yan if he had any good financial ideas.
Although everyone had been taking stock last night, it wasn't like they didn't do other things.
Xia Yu's performance evaluation was divided into several categories, such as city management, people's livelihood security, taxation and finance, accounting for the largest proportion, followed by the increase in reputation and productivity of local officials.
Or discovering a cultivating genius can also be considered a political achievement.
The achievements of city management and people's livelihood protection are basically in the hands of each clan. Su Yan and others cannot take it away, so the only thing that can make achievements is finance. Only by making beautiful financial reports and accounting books can they open their hands and ask questions. Master Sumire asked for what she wished for.
"I haven't thought of any good ideas! I don't know much about Flower City's products. The only way I can think of to make the agricultural district financially efficient is to process agricultural crops into finished products and increase the price of each item."
"As for Wanhua Pavilion, I just want to set up a relationship and get them to send me a letter." Su Yan shook his head and said.
After contacting Wanhua Pavilion, he used Huayu Zhenren's intelligence network to obtain more information.
But this path obviously doesn't work. Master Sumire chose cities where the regional situation was unstable for her outings.
The old dragon in the South China Sea is as cunning as a ghost, and there is no loophole to exploit.
"That's right, boss"
Just as Su Yan and Zhou You were talking about whether they could use the information gap to sell goods, or process agricultural products into semi-finished products or finished products for export, the yamen servant beside him seemed to have remembered something and said: "In seven days, our flower area will be home." During the Spring Society Festival, you’d better not try commerce rashly.”
"By then, there will be a lot of people coming to cause trouble."
Spring Society and Autumn Society are festivals in flower areas. Spring Society Festival, also known as the Land Mountain God Festival, is a grand festival with a long history in farming areas. It is a festival to worship the gods in the coming year and hope for good weather and a good harvest this year.
After the Spring Society Festival is completed, people in the flower area will start to work in the fields.
The Autumn Society Festival, also known as the Harvest Festival, is a celebration held by the flower people after a good harvest, to thank the land and mountain gods for their blessings for a bumper harvest.
The days before and after the Spring Society Festival are not peaceful. Those forces who are at war with the Red King's Army will use all means to destroy the Spring Society Festival, that is, prevent sowing, or delay planting and farming in flower areas, which directly affects the food for the Autumn Society Festival. The harvest will further affect the financial revenue and people's livelihood security of the Red King's fiefdom.
The flower area was not peaceful before and after the Spring Society Festival, so when he heard that Su Yan was planning to engage in business, the yamen servant kindly reminded Su Yan not to spend a lot of money rashly. Many times in the past years, the Immortal Sect caused trouble, resulting in the loss of the Red King's fiefdom and the need to find a big boss. The boss wants to provide food for disaster relief.
If the Eternal Life Sect succeeds this year, or if the barbarians from southern Xinjiang complete their plunder, the finances of the Red King's fiefdom will be poor.
If Su Yan invests money here, he will lose money and become a husband.
