In the next few days, Chris increased the production of jam sandwich bread, but the number of lottery places remained the same.
Grape jam and sweet orange jam are being released one after another, and Chris can gain 800 reputation points every day.
In just three days, it exceeded his previous total, which was simply wonderful.
But on the fourth day, something happened that made him very depressed.
There is a notice posted at the gate of Mote City: "Starting from tomorrow, all commercial activities in Mote City are prohibited. All shops are not allowed to open. Civilians are prohibited from taking to the streets for five days. City residents please prepare food for five days."
, stay at home with peace of mind.——The White family, the Jordan family, the Hughes family."
This notice was jointly initiated by the three major viscount families in Mott City, and it has a very strong binding force. Ordinary people simply do not dare to touch their bad luck.
This also means that Chris will not be able to collect reputation in the city for the next five days.
The notice didn't explain the reason, so Chris decided to go back to his hometown to ask.
When they arrived at the Jordan family mansion, the two guards guarding the door saw that the third young master of their family was coming back. They let Chris in without any obstruction or notification.
His father is busy with official duties, and Plato cannot deal with him, so only Brent can answer his questions.
Chris came to his brother's residence and found that Brent was practicing swordplay. He was shirtless and his sword was heavily shadowed, and his fighting spirit was flying.
Seeing Chris coming, Brent quickly put away his sword, walked up to him quickly, and said with a smile: "Your sandwich bread business is so good, why do you have time to come to me?"
"That's why I came here." Chris sighed, "What's the matter with the notice at the city gate? Why is it that business is banned for no reason?"
Brent smiled mysteriously, quietly came over, and whispered: "Princess Shirley, do you know?"
Chris lowered his head and thought for a while, his expression a little confused. Looking through the memories in his mind, he only knew that the Eagle Principality where he lived had only one queen, and he had never heard of Princess Shirley.
"This Princess Shirley is not simple." Brent gossiped, "She became the queen of the Wolf Kingdom at the age of sixteen. During the Pioneering War eight years ago, the Wolf Kingdom was destroyed, and she was unfortunately abducted by the Shadow Leopard Kingdom.
Go and become the current princess. Later, the old king died suddenly and the new king succeeded to the throne, still treating her as the princess."
"Afterwards, the Shadow Leopard Kingdom owed a large amount of money to the White Tiger Kingdom and used Princess Shirley to pay off the debt."
"Later, for some unknown reason, she became the princess of the Iron Rhino Kingdom."
"During last year's Pioneer Order War, she was captured as a prisoner and came to our country. She became the princess of our Eagle Kingdom and served six emperors."
Chris was simply stunned when he heard Brent's description.
Princess Shirley's experience was too tortuous.
"Is this the legendary six emperors?" Chris looked surprised.
Brent nodded and smiled: "You can think so."
This princess must be so charming that all six kings are so obsessed with her.
Chris asked doubtfully: "But what does this have to do with us closing the city and banning businesses?"
Brent explained: "Princess Shirley returned to her parents' home a month ago and is passing by here. Starting from the day after tomorrow, she will rest in Mott City for three days. My father and the others plan to use two days to collect garbage, feces, etc. on the streets in the city.
Clean it up."
"The most important point is that each major family secretly prepares its own special products and presents them to the princess during the reception dinner. If the princess is satisfied, she may be able to expand her own business through her channels.
The royal capital."
Chris knew in his heart that this was the real purpose of the nobles.
Civilians are prohibited from taking to the streets to prevent accidents.
And took this opportunity to clean the streets of the city and leave a good impression on the princess.
Then, at the princess's wedding banquet, she showed off her products as much as possible.
No matter which family is valued by the princess and brings business to the capital, it will be a great opportunity for the family.
Therefore, no civilian shops can be opened on the street. What if the princess enjoys shopping and does not give them a chance to show off?
What if the princess likes the common people's goods and does the common people's business?
"You have to come to the reception dinner the day after tomorrow." Brent said with a smile, "This is the only opportunity in our lives to get in touch with the princess. You can also promote the ice cream and jam."
Chris asked: "Is the princess willing to do business with us little nobles?"
"Of course." Brent nodded and said, "The princess is doing business in the royal capital. She has a chamber of commerce under her name, and it has become prosperous in just one year. This relies on the princess's discernment. She met
For any promising products, we will become partners with the other party.”
Chris nodded, agreeing with his brother's statement.
If you can establish a connection with the princess and sell the ice cream and jam to the royal capital, it will be of great help to yourself in gaining reputation.
In one year, a chamber of commerce was made bigger and stronger from scratch.
This Princess Shirley is not only a beautiful vase, but also has something special.
Brent suddenly asked: "By the way, how are you preparing for our brothers' business?"
"The territory is short of manpower. I plan to recruit some free people from Mote City after the princess leaves." Chris thought, "You can send someone to take away the jam made in the few days after the ban on trading in the city.
Let’s go to other big cities to explore the market first.”
In order to gain prestige and stabilize the market in Mott City, all the jam made in the past few days was used by Chris to make sandwich bread, so the business discussion with Brent was delayed.
Brent said: "Okay, if you have any problems recruiting people, you can come to me directly."
"Definitely." Chris smiled helplessly. Now the population of Hope Town is too small and cannot keep up with the development needs.
It would be great if we could attract some freemen from Mote City to work in the territory.
"I'm busy with work in the store, so I'll go back first." Chris got the answer he wanted and was about to leave.
"Go ahead." Brent waved his hand, "Remember the princess's reception dinner and wear your most expensive clothes."
"knew."
······
Chris walked out of the Viscount's Mansion, and pedestrians on the street were hurriedly purchasing various daily necessities.
If the family does not prepare food for five days, they will starve.
Soon, Chris came to the shop in "Hope Town". Because of that notice, the sandwich bread was sold very quickly.
Under the eager eyes of the customers, Chris started drawing prizes.
