Chapter 125 What is supposed to come will always come
Angelou was completely prepared this time.
He has sold the real estate in country B and consolidated the remaining money.
All bought goods.
To put it bluntly, these thirty-odd carts of goods were his entire net worth, and he planned to use these goods to make a comeback.
If it is sold, it will be fine, but if it cannot be sold, it will be bankrupt and penniless.
——
Because of this risky move, Angelou couldn't sleep well during this period, and his family was also worried.
But he soon discovered that he was worrying too much.
Even though this place is still in recession, business is indeed extremely good.
——
Firewood, rice, oil, and salt are all necessities of life, so Baicheng people are naturally happy to patronize it.
But after all, there were too few people in Baicheng, and they couldn't digest all of it at the same time. At best, they could only buy part of it.
But even so, business was booming on this first day, and Angelou was very satisfied.
What he didn't expect was that the good luck wasn't just that.
Yes, Baicheng has a small population and limited consumption power, but it cannot cope with the large population of Heicun.
No, when the demon merchants who went to Baicheng to do business saw Angelou buying firewood, rice, oil and salt, they got mad and started to buy in large quantities.
Their idea is very simple, which is to bring these things back to Heicun, increase their prices, and make a profit from the price difference.
After all, Black Village has a large population and many rich people, so there is no need to worry about not being able to sell it.
In short, after the looting by these merchants, Angelou's products were sold out on the first day.
At night, when the whole family looked at the table full of silver and copper coins, their faces finally lit up and their hearts were relieved.
Not long after that, Angelou went out to buy goods again. Because he was confident, there were more goods this time and the business was getting bigger and bigger.
——
At the same time, his son who suffered from depression also became cheerful.
Because there are no nobles here, everyone is a refugee and cannot read.
This resulted in Angel's son, who was born in the city, very popular, not to mention that he had gone to school.
Every day, a lot of children gathered around him and asked him what the city was like.
Either she wanted him to teach her calligraphy, or else she would hold him up to the sky and regard him as the king of children.
How has a little boy ever enjoyed such treatment?
In the past, he was at the bottom of the aristocratic school. He could bully anyone. He had low self-esteem and lacked self-confidence.
Now that I have come to Baicheng, I have suddenly become the boss in the eyes of the children.
Some people praised me, and gradually I no longer felt inferior, became more confident, and even my depression was cured.
Now I come home with a smile every day, and my family feels relieved.
Angelou was also glad that he had come to the right place.
——
One month later, the construction of walls and houses in Baicheng was completely completed.
The city walls were repaired and a large number of new houses were built.
But there are few people in Baicheng. Even though there have been frequent refugees seeking refuge in recent days, only a few people have come today.
This has resulted in a large number of vacant new homes.
And those houses with people living in them all surround the city lord's mansion.
To put it bluntly, the people in Baicheng all want their homes to be closer to the City Lord's Mansion, and they call the residence near the City Lord's Mansion a prime location.
——
After the houses were built, the lives of local residents stabilized, and all houses had their own chicken coops and cowsheds.
Each person received a number of chickens, ducks and geese, plus a certain number of cattle and sheep.
Usually my main job is to go out to cut grass and graze, which can be regarded as an errand.
Of course, not everyone wants to engage in breeding.
Some people who want to do other business and are not interested in this will choose to sell poultry to farms under the name of the government.
Instead, you get a start-up capital to start a business.
If the business succeeds, it will be great. But if it fails? That doesn't matter. Anyway, there are plenty of grasses in the pasture, so you will definitely not die of hunger.
——
The breeding industry in Baicheng has temporarily stabilized, but since the whole city is engaged in breeding, the internal sales are not good, so most of them are sold to black villages.
This leads to more people going to Heicun to do business.
The same goes for Black Village. Their vegetables and fish will also be sold to Baicheng, and the exchanges between the two parties have become more frequent.
Of course, Baicheng has a small population and does not have much spending power, so most of the vegetables and fish are digested within Heicun.
——
Of course, things cannot always be smooth sailing, and there will inevitably be various problems.
Chickens, ducks and geese are okay. We don’t have to worry about sales for the moment. The people in Heicun Village can digest them.
Sheep are okay, after all, they can be milked, so many people buy them.
But only for cows, this thing is a bit embarrassing.
Because all the cattle in Baicheng are farm cattle, and the border area is mostly covered with ice and snow, there is not much land for farming, so there is no need for cattle at all.
This has resulted in many people being unable to sell their cattle.
Although there are people who want to eat beef, the growth rate of cattle is very slow and the price has gone up, so there are fewer people buying it.
Therefore, most people in Baicheng will sell these cattle to government breeding farms at low prices, and then no longer raise cattle, focusing on chickens and ducks, which are quick-earning poultry.
——
The marketability of cattle is indeed a problem.
But overall, it's nothing. Bai Yi plans to see if these cattle have any other uses in the future.
——
Overall, both Baicheng and Heicun are developing steadily.
The reputation of Black Village is so great that it now has 100,000 people.
In addition to refugees, these people also include businessmen and teachers who cannot make it elsewhere.
In short, there are talents and elites who have left their hometowns for various reasons.
And their arrival also caused the development of Black Village to skyrocket.
The reason why Baicheng rose up was because Bai Yi supported him, but after all, Baicheng had a small population and its development speed was limited.
In comparison, the biggest advantage of Heicun is its large number of people.
No, it is now very lively, with a large number of foreign businessmen settling in.
Although the house market in his village is dilapidated, the trading system is much more mature and lively than that in Baicheng.
——
The Black Village with a population of 100,000 can be called a small country in another world.
With such a large population and influence, naturally, it is impossible for the demons to be unaware of it.
What was supposed to come eventually came.
——
On this day, Bai Yi was in the office thinking about his future plans.
Now that Baicheng has stabilized, the top priority is to deal with the Black Village side.
Bai Yi had to find a way to resettle the 100,000 people in Heicun Village and provide them with accommodation.
Otherwise, it would be okay to have such a large group of people living in a rotten shack outside the village. But if something goes wrong and a riot breaks out, it will no longer be a joke.
——
Bai Yizheng was thinking about this matter.
Unexpectedly, the next moment, the office door was suddenly pushed open, and Lao Yang rushed in with a panic look on his face.
"Bai, City Lord Bai, it's not good..."
He had an uneasy look on his face and was panting. It was obvious that he was running over here non-stop.
