The agricultural output of Granling has surged, resulting in a series of new problems that Zhou Ming was unexpected.

Food is flooding, and the consumption capacity in the territory cannot be improved for a while. Farmers who have a large number of grain on hand are all at a loss.

"Sell all the oxen and farm tools in the castle to the farmer! Then take out some coins from the castle vault and buy the excess grain in the farmer's hands at a reasonable price. If this grain is always left in the farmer's hands, I am afraid that next year, the grain output of Gran will not only not increase, but will also decline! People's laziness is there, and no one will lie on the granary to work."

Zhou Ming took a series of emergency measures to take back most of the excess grain in the hands of farmers, bartering and recycling money.

In addition to the old grain accumulated in the castle granary over the years, there are nearly 10,000 tons of grain accumulated in Zhou Ming's hands.

The total population of Glen is only more than 4,000 people. So much food is enough for the population of the entire territory and can eat for three years without any labor.

"No, you must sell the grain in your hands immediately. Leave it in your hands and it will only rot in the granary. Some travelers passing by Glen Teng will help sell the grain to other territories!"

Zhou Ming planned to ask travelers to help solve the problem of food overflow in Gran.

Travelers are the main representatives of the world's businessman power. They wander among various territories and sell all kinds of novel goods. Some travelers are well-informed and widely engaged in activities. Some travelers form chambers of commerce and some scammers pretend to be among them. But it is undeniable that it is the group of travelers that communicate and connect various almost closed territories in this world in terms of material and information.

In order to solve the problem of grain sales, Zhou Ming ordered people to post a investment promotion announcement at the intersection of the territory's border.

The main contents of the announcement are three items, namely:

1. When travelers are engaging in commercial activities, they will only be levied 10% of commercial tax, and the total transaction volume is less than 10 gold coins.

2. You have the ability to sell a large amount of grain. Any traveler is welcome to come and buy it. The more you buy, the more discounted the price.

3. Travelers who are capable of traveling through the skills are exempt from various taxes such as passing tax, rest tax, landing tax, etc. Any travelers can live in hotels provided by the skills.

After these three contents appeared in the announcement, they attracted the attention of almost all channels of travelers here.

The travelers stood in front of the announcement for a long time. The three lines in the announcement, without any responsibility, all exuded a fatal attraction for these travelers who regard profit as their lives.

First of all, only 10% of the commercial tax is the low tax rate that these travelers who have traveled through countless territories encounter. Compared with those territories that often charge 30% or 50% heavy taxes, this astonishingly low 10% tax burden doubles their profit margins to several times.

Secondly, in addition to commercial taxation, travelers carried money and property through various territories and could not avoid being extorted by lords from all over the country.

For example, toll tax is undoubtedly toll. Rest tax means that one night of rest in the territory will have to be paid for one night of rest. The landing tax is even more rogue. It stipulates that as long as the goods on the carriage of the merchant fall on the ground, the goods that fall on the ground will have nothing to do with the cargo owner and belong to the local lord.

In other words, compared with the farmers who work hard in the fields, these travelers who seem to be glorious on the surface are not so casual.

Solo is such a traveler who makes a living by selling grain. Over the years, he traveled around the world and ran around the world. From the beginning, he lost all his money to meeting many lords and establishing solid customer relationships with them, it took him more than 20 years. Now, his caravan passes through various territories. As long as he wields the banner given to him by the lord in the area and pays at most a little toll, he can rely on his personal friendship with the lord and suffer a lot of losses.

Even so, in more than 20 years, he made a little money, but Solo saved not much wealth. After all, food is just a popular commodity, not as good as gold, stone, jade, weapons, copper and iron. The advantage is that the risk is small, and the disadvantage is that the profit margin is low. Only in the year of the Great Wilderness can you make a lot of money.

Seeing this announcement at the intersection, I was originally just passing by and did not intend to enter the Glen Territory, Solo decided to meet the lord of this territory and make friends.

By the way, I would like to ask if there is really so much food for sale in this territory.

...

Castle Living Room.

"Mr. Solo, Glen welcomes you grain merchants. Buy food here. We can provide as much as you want. And the quantity is greater than the better. The more you buy, the more discounts you offer."

Zhou Ming asked the servant to hand over the drink and entertained the elegantly dressed, short-sized, but with a unique brilliance of the merchant in front of him, and promoted the food collected by Glen.

"Dear Mr. Ryan, I would like to ask if the announcement written by Guiling at the intersection is true? For example, only 10% commercial tax is levied and all kinds of miscellaneous business taxes are exempted?"

Before confirming the cooperation, Soro wants to confirm it again.

"How can there be falsehood if written and displayed in public? Mr. Solo, Glen is a place that strictly abides by the decree. As long as the decree is formulated by the Lord of the Glen, it will not be implemented. If Mr. Solo meets someone in Glen that collects commercial taxes outside the provisions of the decree from you, tell me, I will punish that person severely!"

Hearing Zhou Ming's stern words, Solo was relieved and asked him how much food Grain had to sell.

Zhou Ming took him to the castle granary and took a look. Seeing the grain full of granary, almost overflowing, Solo couldn't help but exclaim.

"God, these foods are probably enough for a person under the Count to eat for a year. The food I have sold for the rest of my life is not so much!"

Solojue's heart could not bear it anymore. The grain in the granary was like a beautiful woman standing in front of him with her clothes off. He wanted to eat it, but couldn't.

but……

With so much food in front of him, it also means a huge business opportunity in front of him. If he can seize this business opportunity, not to mention getting rich overnight, it will be fine if he eats a bite!

Because Solo learned from some of his travelers that the Iron Fort Kingdom adjacent to the south of the Kingdom of Wares, the prince and Uncle Wang fought fiercely for the throne since the death of the old king. This war has been fighting for more than a year, and there is still no victory or defeat. The large amount of land caused by the war has caused the country to be in a serious shortage of food and soaring prices. If a batch of food can be transported to the Iron Fort Kingdom...

However, although Solo wanted to make a big profit, with his current wealth, it would be good if he could eat one tenth of the grain in a granary, and eating it all was simply delusional.

Seeing that he looked embarrassed, Zhou Ming asked about the reason. After hearing Solo introduce the chaotic situation in the Iron Fort Kingdom and the dilemma of insufficient capital, he made a decision that he could never imagine.

"Solo, I can sell these grains to you on credit. As long as you sell them to the Iron Fort Kingdom, and then buy a batch of iron ingots needed from the Iron Fort Kingdom, you don't need to pay me extra money, you just need to get me enough iron ingots."

Zhou Ming had heard of the Iron Fort Kingdom. This is a wealthy kingdom with 36 earl corpses and is famous for producing a large number of high-quality iron ore. Its national strength, population, and resources are many times stronger than the Warrior Kingdom. There was a civil strife in the Iron Fort Kingdom, and there were countless small countries around that were ready to get some cheaper. Zhou Ming also wanted to make a decision. Of course, it was the idea of ​​the Iron Fort Kingdom's iron ingot resources.

Hearing this.

Solo suddenly stood up from the chair, took off his hat, knelt in front of Zhou Ming on one knee, stroked his chest and bowed deeply: "Dear Housekeeper Ryan, your generosity and kindness have moved Solo. Don't worry, after I transported the food I received to the Iron Fort Kingdom, I will definitely exchange all the food for iron ingots and transport it to Glen. Even if I don't make a silver coin this time, I will complete the task you assigned to me by Solo!"

The so-called scholar dies as a confidant, and Solo has always regarded profit as his life. Every business goes away with the purpose of making a fortune. But this time, he wants to give up this huge profit as an investment, gain the trust and reuse of this young housekeeper, and lay a solid foundation for more cooperation opportunities in the future!

"Mr. Solo, get up quickly. How could I make you unable to make a silver coin? Don't worry, you should get all your interests. If you complete this business well, Glen will continue to cooperate with you in the future and sell it to various kingdoms and all over the world!"

Zhou Ming saw many opportunities to promote the rapid development of Glen Territory from merchants like Solo. For example, the most scarce iron ingots in Glen Territory at present. If Solo could transport enough iron ingots, he could rely on these iron ingots to make more farm tools, make more armor, and train more soldiers.
