Chapter 4 Draw a Circle
Curton didn't expect that he would meet Zhang Feng again, a good-tempered noble man, in the new house he just exchanged for.
By chance, Zhang Feng met Curton's son Bart on the street, the thin young man who had taken the carriage away before.
When Bart heard that the noble master was looking for his father, Curton, he did not dare to neglect and hurriedly took Zhang Feng to his new home.
Bart was very grateful to Zhang Feng. If he hadn't given his father a piece of "noble food", their family wouldn't have owned a property in Hongye City. Although this house was not much bigger than what was outside the city before, it had a completely different meaning. This represents this status and circle. From then on, they were also people in the city.
After Zhang Feng told him about his purpose, Curton quickly put down his work and gave Zhang Feng serious advice.
"Sir, if you're willing to give some sweetness to those greedy businessmen, they'll be happy to sell you a good property."
Then Curton explained with some shame, and sold the biscuits rewarded by Zhang Feng to a Hongye City merchant, and exchanged them for this pretty good property from him.
To be honest, Curton could not understand what Mr. Zhang Feng said, clean and tidy and odorless places, because he had never seen them before, especially if he could not be with the same roof as the livestock, he could not imagine where there were no livestock except the castle. He even felt that perhaps most of the castle was full of livestock - if he was the city lord, he would raise ten cows, ten horses, and thirty sheep!
However, although there is no way to understand, it does not prevent Cotton from coming up with an idea. The easiest way is to buy a property. Mr. Zhang Feng can hire someone to decorate the house as he likes.
Curton's words made Zhang Feng stunned, which sounded pretty good.
His ideas have not changed before and are still in another world. You should know that in this world, in this Red Leaf City, Zhang Feng is already a rich man with the things in his backpack and can afford a house.
"This is a good idea, but I'm not very familiar with it here..."
"Sir, you can give me the task, I will definitely not let you down!"
Cotton knew that his chance to perform had come, so he immediately spoke up to promise.
Zhang Feng was waiting for his words. He compared Curton's "a 60-square-meter house that was exchanged for a small piece of compressed biscuits", and then said after a little thought:
"Okay, I'm relieved to leave it to you, but I have a little requirement. It's the most basic thing to be clean and tidy. The location doesn't matter. However, if there are people far away from the crowd, but within the protection of Hongye City, the most priority is. It's best to have no one living in it for a long time, there are not many traces of 'life', and then it's big enough, the bigger the better..."
As Zhang Feng said, Curton's mouth became bigger and bigger.
Looking at Coton, whose face was gradually confused, Zhang Feng was immediately discouraged.
"Forget it, when I didn't say anything before, there is only the last one, the bigger the better!"
This time, Curton understood and immediately patted his chest, assuring Zhang Feng that he could complete the task before dark.
Zhang Feng’s idea is also very simple. As long as my house is big enough, no odor can be in!
At worst, you can hire more people to clean up. Zhang Feng feels that he has the conditions now.
Curton did not disappoint Zhang Feng, but the people he brought were a little beyond Zhang Feng's expectations.
"Hello, Hello, hello, I am Pan Xi, the manager of Hongye City Hall."
The visitor was a huge middle-aged man, like a moving mountain. He trotted and Zhang Feng felt that the ground was shaking.
His face was as bloated as his figure. Zhang Feng was useless and had a lot of energy to see clearly that he had eyes. Seeing him wiping his sweat wildly, it was difficult for him to run over.
This is the first time Zhang Feng has seen such a fat person in Hongye City.
"People in other worlds live in dire straits" is already a false proposition, at least some people still live well.
"Hello."
Zhang Feng greeted him politely.
Through the introduction, Zhang Feng learned that Pansy was not the big businessmen that Curton mentioned, but the people from the Red Leaf City Hall, and simply the official staff.
Pan Xi didn't say nonsense. After expressing his admiration for Zhang Feng, he took out the parchment roll and spread it out.
"I have already understood your needs. There are still many real estate tradable in Hongye City. Look at which area you need. If it is appropriate, you can settle it now."
When Pan Xi saw Zhang Feng for the first time, he knew that he was going to have a big order today.
Judging from Zhang Feng's clothes, skin and appearance, he is definitely a nobleman, and maybe his origin is bigger than Baron Charles. At least he has not seen such exquisite fabrics and such delicate skin on Baron Charles, which is not something that ordinary people can have.
Zhang Feng has a tall figure and three-dimensional facial features. He has both the exquisiteness of orientals and the depth of Westerners. In the aesthetics of this group of people from other worlds, he can definitely be called a handsome man.
Zhang Feng looked at this hand-drawn map. The entire Red Leaf City was about a circle, centered on the castle, radiating around, including churches, central squares, city halls, markets, workshops, residential areas, docks, etc. Although in Zhang Feng's opinion, the city is very small, it can be regarded as a sparrow that is small and complete with all the organs.
Of course, it would be even better if the hygiene situation could be improved.
Judging from the situation marked on the map, it is obvious that the areas are different and the prices are different. The middle is the most expensive, and the more you go, the cheaper it is.
Zhang Feng thought for a while, then took out a few things from his backpack and placed them in front of Pan Xi.
"Hiss Pansy, see how many gold coins these things can be worth, or what price real estate can I get?"
Zhang Feng did not have gold coins, but his backpack contained the food he prepared during his travels. Judging from the fact that Curton exchanged a compressed biscuit for a house, there should be a market for his own things.
Seeing a few things Zhang Feng took out, Pan Xi's squinting eyes suddenly widened a lot. Zhang Feng even saw a light, and I don't know if it was an illusion.
There are three things in total, four compressed biscuits wrapped in paper, a can of beer and a whole piece of milk toast bread. The trademarks can be torn, and it doesn’t matter if they can’t be torn. Anyway, the Chinese characters and other characters are very different, so don’t worry about exposing their identity.
Seeing compressed biscuits and canned beer, Pansy looked relatively calm - this is a must-have for business, and he is not evident in his mood, so that he can take the initiative in the subsequent negotiations. His fat body is obtained through these.
But when he saw the milk toast bread that Zhang Feng took out, he could no longer control his expression. He asked in a trembling tone as if he had seen some holy object:
"Your Excellency, can I take a closer look at this bread?"
"certainly."
Zhang Feng did not refuse. Judging from Pan Xi's performance, it seems that he had seen similar breads?
Pansy carefully picked up the bread, first gently pinched it with his somewhat fat big hands, feeling this extremely soft touch, and then put it on the tip of his nose, looking intoxicated.
"Mr. Pansy?"
Seeing Pan Xi calm in his own world as if holding a rare treasure, Zhang Feng had to interrupt.
"Sorry, you are so excited. I didn't expect to see the legendary Queen's Bread in my lifetime!"
Pansy said with a sacred look on his face.
“Queen’s Bread?”
Zhang Feng was stunned for a moment. He bought this bread for five yuan in the supermarket. Why did it become Queen's bread?
"It is rumored that there is a white bread in the palace. Just sifting flour requires more than twelve people to take turns to use the finest flour, add eggs, milk, herbs, honey and other rare ingredients, and then invite the chef with the best baking skills in the whole kingdom to bake it in person. If there is any problem in the middle, you can't make this perfect queen bread. In the palace, there has always been a shortage of supply and cannot flow out at all, because even for the king, it is impossible to eat it often in luxury!"
Pansy searched for the only knowledge about Queen's bread in his mind and said it all.
To be honest, Pansy had never eaten Queen's Bread, but this did not prevent him from judging that it was Queen's Bread. The white bag, the soft touch, the faint milky smell, and even the extremely sensitive nose he could smell a little sweet!
Everything shows that this is Queen’s Bread!
"Uh...what property do you think this piece of bread can be exchanged for?"
Zhang Feng was stunned by Pan Xi's words. If it weren't for buying it by himself, he would have almost believed it. But he did not forget his purpose, bread, etc., it didn't matter to Zhang Feng, it was only five yuan, and the house was the most important thing.
Alas, it’s heartbreaking to say that, I’ve traveled to another world and I still have to worry about the house.
"Are you really sure to trade this piece of Queen's bread?"
Those who can bring the queen's bread out of the palace must have an unusual background. Pan Xi believed that Zhang Feng was the prince, so he confirmed it again.
"Of course, I'm pretty sure."
Zhang Feng nodded.
Pan Xi, who received affirmation, looked happy. He took out a quill, quickly drew a circle on the map, and said to Zhang Feng in great charm:
Chapter completed!
