"If you came to do business with us, what would you say about pricing?"
“Because, because of transportation costs, the overall price may be higher than the market.
Things with a short shelf life will be more expensive, while things with a long shelf life will be cheaper.
This... specific situation will be analyzed in detail."
"I don't expect you to set a high price, but one thing is that the same product cannot be too much higher than the market price, and it must be within the acceptable range of Baicheng people.
As a deal, you don’t have to pay any taxes for five years, and no matter how much you earn, it’s yours.”
"Here, is this true?"
Angelou's eyes suddenly lit up.
After all, as a businessman, according to the laws of country B, most of the income should be used to pay taxes and pay filial piety.
Therefore, the final profit received is very small.
This is a rule that has existed since ancient times and is true in all countries.
Therefore, when he heard that Baicheng did not have to pay taxes, Angelou obviously couldn't believe it.
This means benefits, lots of benefits.
"City Lord, are you telling the truth?"
"Of course, but I have a condition."
"You said."
Angelou's heart was in suspense, and he thought, as expected, there is no such thing as a good thing.
He thought Bai Yi would blackmail him, such as making an unequal treaty.
Ran Baiyi said:
"You can do business in Baicheng, but you must move your home here, including your family, of course."
"move place?"
This was the only aspect that Anglas had not thought of. This was the first time he had encountered it.
"Yes, moving, don't worry about not having a place to live, we will have plenty of vacancies here soon.
I will give you a set when the time comes.
As for the children's education, there is no problem, the school will be built soon."
Bai Yi’s meaning is very simple:
You want to do business here? Yes, but you must take your family as hostages. Only in this way can I let you in with peace of mind.
Angelou naturally understood what Bai Yi meant.
He only said to think about it, and then sat on the sofa nearby to think.
——
These days, Angelo inquired around the city frequently and learned what kind of person Bai Yi was.
To be honest, people who can feed city residents for free, build houses and find jobs cannot be bad people.
Look at yourself again?
Either the official came to blackmail him every now and then, or his son was bullied by the aristocratic children in school, but as a father, he didn't even dare to fart.
There is no way, businessmen are low-class people after all, but they cannot afford to offend those noble lords.
Precisely because he was too frustrated, no, my wife told me a few days ago that the child was already a little depressed.
——
Baicheng didn't like the aristocracy, and he hadn't heard of any bullying of the people.
After all, the city lord is a good man. He is upright, and the atmosphere below will naturally be good.
It is not the so-called upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked.
To be honest, if my whole family moved here, many worries would disappear.
But……
Then again, after all, Baicheng is too far behind, incomparable to big cities, and very inconvenient.
It will be fine if it develops in the future, but if it does not, it will be tragic.
Not to mention...this place was originally the territory of Country A, but it was occupied without authorization by the [Death Doctor].
If one day in the future, the palace will send someone to attack.
Was Baicheng really able to withstand it at that time?
——
Angelou didn't know, he just quickly organized his thoughts.
At this moment, Heimu came in again. He looked at Bai Yi and said:
"Here comes another person."
"who?"
"He is also a businessman. He claims to be from country C and wants to talk to you about long-term cooperation."
After hearing this, Angelou sat up immediately and saw him hurriedly coming to Bai Yi and said:
"City Master Bai, I've thought about it, I'm willing to move here with my whole family."
"That's it..."
Bai Yi glanced at Kuroki and said:
"Let the guy from country C wait first, just say I have a guest."
"OK."
After Kuroki left, Bai Yi and Angelo talked about a lot of cooperation topics.
The two chatted at length, and by the time they finished, it was already an hour later.
Angelou said goodbye and left, saying he would be back in about a month.
As soon as he walked away, Kuroki returned to the office.
Seeing the successful expression on his face, Bai Yi smiled:
"Where's the guy from Country C?"
"I made it up, how could such a coincidence happen?"

During this time, Baicheng was busy repairing city walls and building new houses.
And, build new, larger-scale breeding farms outside the city.
And as soon as the farm was repaired, 10,000 cattle and sheep and 20,000 chickens, ducks and geese were delivered.
This made the people of Baicheng extremely happy, because the city lord made it clear.
When everyone's new houses are repaired, part of these livestock will be distributed to everyone based on the number of people.
Of course, you can also take the money directly without the livestock. The specific method depends on the personal wishes of the parties involved.
In short, in order to prepare for the placement of the upcoming livestock.
During this time, all the city residents went to the pasture.
They worked hard to cut the white grass and prepare feed reserves in advance.
Although they were exhausted from hunching over all day, no one complained of being tired.
Everyone has a beaming face and their eyes are full of hope.
And...show off the current status of Baicheng to the people in Black Village from time to time.
——
It can be said that the happiness of Baicheng people during this period was extremely overwhelming.
But on the other hand, the mood of the villagers in Heicun is inevitably a bit complicated.
Although now that I have grass-fed food, I no longer have to worry about being full.
But people always make comparisons subconsciously, and if they don’t pay attention, they will have some psychological imbalance.
Of course, it doesn't matter if it's just out of balance.
But the problem is that as this atmosphere spreads rapidly, Lao Yang, the head of the Black Village, feels very uncomfortable.
——
No, just tonight, a large group of old people organized a group to visit Laoyang.
The leader, who was highly respected, said:
"Little Yang, I asked you to ask City Master Bai, have you asked? Does he have any plans for our village?"
They actually came to investigate.
After all, in their eyes, this black village has long been owned by Bai Yi. As for the village chief, Lao Yang? He is just an agent who communicates with Bai Yi.
Since Baicheng and Black Village all belong to Bai Yi, then Black Village should also have follow-up arrangements.
These elderly people came to visit us many times just because they wanted to know what the follow-up arrangements were.
But this is not a good thing for Lao Yang, because he is really under a lot of pressure.
"Uncle, uncle, third aunt, fourth uncle...
I have said it many times, Baicheng is Baicheng, and Black Village is Black Village. Lord Bai of City has no obligation to consider us at all, we are just neighbors."
The old sheep speaks with sincerity.
"Hey, why are you still saying this?"
But the old people don’t believe it at all:
"Little Yang, don't bluff us. How could City Lord Bai, a good person like us, not care about us? You know, we in the Black Village are all his followers now, how could he not care about us?"
"Yes, in my opinion, it must be that your kid is not good at being a human being and has offended him in some way.
Tell me how you became the village chief and how you could offend such a good person?"
The quarrels started again, and the old people put all the blame on Lao Yang's "inaction."
In this regard, Lao Yang felt very aggrieved.
But these people are my elders, they have watched me grow up since childhood, and I still can't turn against them.
After all, if you want to scare someone to death if you fall out, it's not a joke.
