Chapter 7: Sell ​​the title

The next day.

Zhang Feng slept until the sun hit his **** before getting up.

"I'm also big-hearted..."

Seeing the rising sun, Zhang Feng laughed at himself.

Last night, I was worried about being trapped by Pan Xi. I was trying to figure out a way, and I fell asleep after thinking about it.

Came to the kitchen, found a fairly clean iron pot, washed it with water, and then boiled a large pot of hot water.

Zhang Feng first poured some of the hot water that was boiled into another small pot, ready to cool, and used it as today's drinking water. Zhang Feng couldn't drink that kind of sour beer, so drinking more hot water was right.

Then he poured the rest of the water into the wooden bucket, mixed it with some cold water and felt that the water temperature was about the same.

"Comfortable~"

Negative emotions such as nervousness, exhaustion, and overwhelm for the past three days seemed to be swept away. Looking at the blue sky outside the window, listening to the chirping of birds on the trees, especially looking at a house as big as himself, Zhang At this time, Feng felt that it was not so unacceptable to travel here.

After taking a bath, he soaked a few compressed biscuits in boiling water, and simply solved the breakfast. Zhang Feng was going to the market to buy some supplies.

After all, there isn't much in the bag, and if you let it go, you might finish it in a day, but when he thinks of the kind of black bread he saw in the market that can be used as a weapon, Zhang Feng felt his gums ache.

Carrying the gold coins, Zhang Feng was careful all the way, for fear of stepping on a landmine. He only now understands why those ancient Western men love to wear high heels.

When I came to the Hongyecheng Market, Zhang Feng felt that there were not as many people in the market today as yesterday, and many stalls were empty.

Speaking of people, Zhang Feng felt that he should hire some servants. After all, in such a big family, he is too lonely by himself. Anyway, now that he has money, he can hire them.

While thinking about it, Zhang Feng found that there seemed to be a notice posted on the bulletin board in front of him, and a group of people surrounded him.

It is human instinct to watch the fun, and Zhang Feng is no exception. He ran over.

"Baron Charles sells his title, along with the territory and Charles' personal wealth, for only 100 gold coins?"

Can noble titles also be sold? And so cheap?

Zhang Feng was a little surprised, and subconsciously said aloud.

In fact, 100 gold coins is already a lot, but Zhang Feng still doesn't understand the purchasing power of gold coins in this world. After all, he only used three items to exchange for half a city yesterday.

These commoners hardly knew how to read, and when they heard Zhang Feng's words, they were all surprised.

"How could Baron Charles sell his title?"

"Could he be leaving our Red Leaf City?"

"I'm not sure. I heard that Red Leaf City has been unable to make money for the City Lord's Mansion. Are you really going to give up on us?"

"Could this be fake?"

"It should be true. The City Hall and the City Lord's Palace are stamped, as well as the handprint of Baron Charles."

"This is an opportunity to become a noble, but 100 gold coins are too expensive. I doubt that no one in Hongye City can come up with so many gold coins..."

"I don't even think Lord Charles himself can come up with it..."

Listening to these people's discussions, Zhang Feng frowned, thinking that some people left in a hurry last night, always feeling that these two things should be related.

A shadow suddenly appeared. Looking at the figure passing by like a hill, Zhang Feng said hello.

"Your Excellency Pansy?"

"Ah... Your Excellency Zhang Feng?"

Meeting Zhang Feng here, Pan Xi was a little surprised, and his face was a little unnatural.

"Good morning."

"Morning... good morning."

Zhang Feng was sure that Pan Xi must be hiding something from him, and he had to find a way to see if he could get some words out.

"Lord Pansy seems to have something on your mind?"

Zhang Feng asked casually.

"No no."

Pan Xi waved his hands again and again, but the more this happened, the more Zhang Feng felt that he had a ghost in his heart.

"You also sold this title of Charles?"

"Uh, no, no, I don't have such great power. It's the City Hall and the City Lord's Mansion. I'm just an errand!"

Zhang Feng rolled his eyes and said:

"I'm very interested in the territory here. If you can promise me one condition, I'll buy it."

Zhang Feng deliberately didn't mention the title, but only said that he was interested in the territory, because after all, his personality is now "aristocrat", which belongs to those who already have titles, so as to prevent them from being exposed. He guessed that Pansy would definitely get a small commission as an errand.

Pan Xi struggled for a long time, but he couldn't resist the temptation of gold coins. Zhang Feng guessed right. If he could sell the title, he would get a large commission.

"Your Excellency Zhang Feng, please speak."

"Just tell me what happened to Hongye City recently, or what you have hidden from me, don't worry, I will never pursue it, even if you earn my gold coins, I will not pursue it, you know, I don't lack gold!"

Zhang Feng looked indifferent.

Pan Xi thought for a while. Anyway, the previous contract has been signed, and Zhang Feng has no way to go back. Now there is another opportunity to make money, we must seize it!

So he pulled Zhang Feng into a corner where no one was around, and said in a mysterious low voice:

"Baron Charles is dead!"

"Ah? Is your business of title legal?"

Hearing this news, Zhang Feng was a little surprised.

"Of course, our city hall has complete procedures, please rest assured, I can't deceive a noble in the contract!"

"Then why don't you yourself want this title of nobleman? Don't you want to be a nobleman? You can sell it to your own people at a cheap price!"

Zhang Feng asked curiously.

"Of course not, everyone wants to be a noble!"

Pansy organized the language and continued.

"But the situation here is a bit special. First of all, there is only one noble title, and there are more than a dozen gentlemen in the city hall, so there is no way to distinguish them.

Then, if you sell it cheaply to your own people, everyone will get less gold coins, and no one will be willing to sell it. If you sell it at a high price, no one can afford gold coins!

So in the end, they came up with a way to sell the titles and territories to other nobles or big businessmen, and then share the gold coins equally. "

There is one more thing that Pansy didn't say, that is, the current Red Leaf City will end at any time. If you become the lord of Red Leaf City, then you must bring the Red Leaf City back to life, or buy a dead city. It doesn't make sense.

"Is that so..."

Zhang Feng touched his chin. He knew that Pan Xi must have something to hide, but he didn't need to ask, he had already guessed it. After all, a city without a leader would definitely be panic-stricken, especially when thinking about last night, the parts he saw were: The money man took the supplies and left, knowing that the current situation of Hongye City itself is not very good.

But it doesn't matter, Zhang Feng doesn't care about this either.

He simply wanted to buy a noble title and experience the feeling of being a real noble.

"Okay, I bought it!"

Hearing Zhang Feng's words, Pan Xi was excited for a while. He could get one-tenth of a hundred gold coins! Yesterday's 10 gold coins can be earned!

Although Zhang Feng doesn't have a hundred gold coins, he has something else.

Returning home with Pan Xi, Zhang Feng took out a few bottles of beer and a pack of compressed biscuits, and Pan Xi signed a contract with him with bright eyes.

In fact, it was enough for Zhang Feng to sign and stamp it by himself. Many places on the contract were filled in, and there was even Charles's own fingerprints.

However, I noticed a detail. There was a clause in the contract that after Zhang Feng became the city lord of Hongye City, Pan Xi was allowed to leave.

Zhang Feng didn't care either, and signed it happily.

"Dear City Lord, happy cooperation!"

Pan Xi performed a non-standard aristocratic ceremony and presented a noble medal representing a baron.

"I've become a noble now? It doesn't seem to be any different!"

Zhang Feng didn't feel like a tiger's body was shaken.

At the same time, in the castle hall.

"Ma'am, we may be in trouble."
