Live Broadcast: I Am a Lord In Another World

Chapter 47

   After all, the world's wheat varieties are average, and the yield is not good. One mu of land can produce three to four hundred catties.

  If you encounter a better land, you can produce more than one or two hundred catties.

   Ordinary people can plant a few acres of land.

   Richard groaned for a moment, and said: "5 copper coins, too low!"

  Slave merchant, said: "6 copper coins, not too much."

   Richard said: "I don't have wheat, but I have potatoes, which taste better."

   The slave merchant showed a look of interest, and said: "Lord, what is a potato?"

   Richard said: "You can stay and taste it later."

   More than half an hour later, the slave merchant ate a baked potato and was immediately attracted by the taste of the baked potato.

   The staple food of the human kingdom in this world is mainly bread.

   However, the bread of the human kingdom is not like before the crossing, there are bread improvers, cannon powder and other things to improve the taste.

   is basically hard and unpalatable brown bread.

   The aristocratic food is slightly more refined, but in Richard's opinion, it is also difficult to swallow.

   And it’s troublesome to make the bread.

   You have to slowly grind the wheat into flour.

   Ordinary civilians, every day they plant the ground, then grind flour and make bread.

  It takes a lot of time to grind flour.

   In contrast, potatoes are much more convenient. After planting, you don’t need to care about them. They are easy to eat. They can be roasted or boiled.

   After the slave merchant had eaten a potato, he was full of praise.

   "Lord, how about 6 copper coins per catty?"

   asked the slave merchant.

   Richard shook his head and said, "10 copper coins per catty, bargaining is not acceptable."

   The slave merchant hesitated for a long time, and said: "Okay, I accept this price."

  In the end, Richard sold a total of 10,000 catties of potatoes to the slave merchant, and sold 100,000 copper coins, which was only 10 gold coins.

   The price of these potatoes was almost one yuan per catty when Richard bought them.

  That is to say, only seven or eight times the profit.

   Naturally there is no such profit as glasses.

   But after all, you can't put too many glasses out.

  Things are rare and expensive. If they are everywhere, it is impossible to sell a few gold coins one by one.

  Selling food is a lasting business, and it can also bring more caravans to Richard's territory.

   As for the question of whether potato breeding will be stolen by people in this world, Richard is not worried.

   The planting of potatoes seems simple, but there are actually a lot of specialties, and now that the locust plague is raging, anyone who dares to grow food will definitely eat the potatoes as soon as they get them.

   In another few months, winter will come, and there will be food crises everywhere...

   Even if someone secretly learns to breed potatoes, it will be next year. It will be the year afterwards that they have to find out and plant them slowly. For Richard, he has already earned enough gold coins from potatoes.

   There are so many good things in the other world, Richard would naturally not stare at the potatoes and squeeze them all the time.

   After selling the potatoes, Richard took out a few glasses, combs, pearl necklaces and the like, and emptied all the thirty gold coins left on the slave merchant.

   There will be caravans buying food in the future, and Richard is also prepared to deal with it like this. After selling the food, he will use glasses to empty the opponent's gold coins.

   "By the way, I almost forgot an important thing."

   Although the slave merchant's gold coins are spent, it doesn't feel distressed at all, but rather happy.

   He opened a carriage, which contained a petite beast earmother.

   "It's not easy to sell orc slaves now, but this rabbit girl is the best, how about it? This rabbit girl can replace the mirror you just took out, okay?"

  The slave merchant never forgets the mirror that Richard just took out.

   "Rabbit Girl."

   Behind Richard, Mia and Mi Wei both saw the rabbit girl inside.

   "Where did you catch it?"

   Mia's voice is bad.

   She actually hates slave merchants. Mi Wei was sold to Richard by these slave merchants.

   However, Mi Wei was lucky and met Richard.

   If you sell it to other nobles, it would be bad.

   The slave merchant saw Mia’s expression and quickly said: "Don’t get me wrong, we never attack the orcs actively. We all bought it from some tribes. This rabbit girl was sold to us by a goblin tribe."

   "Goblin again!"

   Mia hummed softly when he heard the word goblin.

   Richard took out a mirror, handed it to the slave merchant, and said, "Here you are."

  The slave merchant took the mirror from Richard's hand with joy, and then said to Richard, "She is yours."

   "Hold her down."

   Mia jumped into the carriage and carried the rabbit girl who had passed out in a coma, and below, Mi Wei and Dorothy followed.

   Maybe it was because of the same experience, but Mi Wei felt very sympathetic to this rabbit girl.

Chapter 0071 Reasons for Mia! The ability of the rabbit ear mother!

  The slave merchant left with a dozen carts of potatoes.

   The team of slave merchants is not small, and it also brought twenty or thirty guards.

   However, if you are unlucky, encountering a large stock of horse thieves is also dangerous.

   Richard's gold coins have already been obtained, so naturally he doesn't care about how this slave merchant is doing.

   Mia and the others have taken the rabbit girl into the small castle.

   The rabbit girl's body is a bit smaller.

  Her body is actually similar to Mia Miwei and the others, and the difference from a human girl is only two hairy ears and a short tail.

   Well, the rabbit ears have a shorter tail.

   "Master, she is still in a coma, she looks fainted from hunger."

  Mi Wei said.

   Richard said: "Feed her some hot milk and water, don't feed too much at once."

   "Yes, master"

  Mi Wei said.

   After thinking about it, Richard took out a dextrose, handed it to Mi Wei, and said, "Feed this to her too."

   "Yes, master!"

  Mi Wei took the glucose, and the fox-ear mothers cautiously fed glucose and milk to the rabbit-ear mothers.

   Richard went to the study in the castle, picked up an account book and looked at it.

   "Master, a total of 15 gold coins are needed for wages this week. In addition, the food consumed this week is almost worth 20 gold coins."

   Mia came in and reported to Richard.

   Richard turned a few times, and said: "What price do you charge for the food?"

   Mia said: "It is calculated based on 5 copper coins per catty of rice and 15 copper coins per catty of meat."

   Richard said, "Yes."

   There are more and more people on the territory, which leads to more and more food expenditures.

   And now there is no food in the territory, all the food is bought by Richard from a certain treasure.

   Of course, the consumption of food in it, more than a hundred tauren accounted for a fraction.

   If this is to change to a nobleman, it is estimated that the Viscount will not be able to withstand more than a hundred tauren to eat.

   Mia stopped talking, but after thinking about it, she finally came to Richard's side and said:

   "Master, after Mia's investigation, the master actually paid too high a salary for the people of the territory."

   Richard looked at her.

Mia said: "The people on the general territory have only five to six copper coins a day. In the master's place, they have become at least 7 copper coins. In addition, the master also provides food. The food provided by the master actually requires them to spend more than half of their wages. I went to buy it."

   Richard glanced at the little cat ear mother. He didn't expect this cute little cat ear mother to be more suitable to be a capitalist than him.

   However, Richard naturally had his own considerations when setting up these salaries.

   In this world, a copper coin is equivalent to a dollar before crossing.

   However, the standard of living in this world is equivalent to the level of going back several decades...

   Before Richard arrived, ordinary people went to work for others, and their monthly salary was only more than one hundred copper coins, which means that they were only more than one hundred yuan a month.

   This wage level is also due to the low standard of living and low productivity.

  Of course, it’s also because most people in this world cultivate their own three-acre land, so many things are self-sufficient.

   With the abundance of supplies in a world, the improvement of living standards and productivity levels, all aspects will surely rise.

  Like Richard, 10,000 yuan a month is not a high salary anymore.

   That is not purely because of inflation, but also because of the improvement of living standards and the abundance of materials, all aspects will naturally improve.

   If you want the territory to be more prosperous, Richard naturally has more gold coins in his hands. However, the territory will become more prosperous if the people in the territory become richer.

   Of course, this kind of wealth is not a gift.

   Instead, through the development and construction of the territory, the people on the territory can earn money from their own labor.

After having spare money, Richard can sell them some cheap gadgets from a certain treasure, and then get the money back, and then pay them down through the salary, so that these people can continue to work for Richard and build territory. .

  In this way, Richard's territory will become more and more prosperous, people will have more money, and people will have more and more supplies, such as clothes, and some daily necessities.

   Everyone has benefited.

   Richard is the biggest beneficiary.

   So, Richard slowly talked about these things to Mia, the cat ear mother.

   Mia tilted her head to listen, her brows frowning, she probably felt that Richard's reasoning was too profound.

   is quite cute.

   "Okay, take your time to think about it. By the way, pay the salary today, and then notify it, the future salary will become a monthly payment."

   Richard looked at Mia's cute appearance and rubbed Mia's little head.

   This rather intimate little action made Mia, a somewhat strong kitten earmother, blush.

   She couldn't help but let out a grumble in protest.

Then…

   Richard heard her mutter and rubbed her little head again.

   Mia was about to protest again, she heard Richard's voice: "By the way, does the Rabbit Girl have any specialties?"

   "Are the rabbit girls' specialties?"

   As soon as Mia heard Richard's words, she forgot about Richard's rubbing her little head.

   She thought for a while, and said, "Bunny people are the best at planting in the orc kingdom."

   "Good at planting?"
