Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

At the bow of the ship, Niu Wu was directing the ship to dock, and standing beside him was Xilan, the daughter of Spencer of Blackwater City, who came to Xiyang City to study with the fleet this time.

"Mr. Niu Wu, is the port of Xiyang City ahead?" Hilan asked in surprise.

"Yes." Niu Wu nodded affirmatively.

"It's amazing." Sheeran admired, she thought of the port of Blackwater City, well, Blackwater City has no port, only a mud bank, not even a wooden port, let alone a stone port.

Niu Wu smiled slightly. Everyone who came to Xiyang City by the Youshui River would praise this cement port. He heard that the young master would divide the port into cargo ports and civilian ports in the future.

Under the skillful operation of the crew, the ship docked quickly, the anchor was dropped, Niu Wu took Xilan off the ship, and the mutton on board would be received by the logistics department.

"Huh..." Sheeran exhaled hot air and glanced around the port. She saw many people working, and a large amount of wood was piled up not far away, as if they were building something.

"Miss Xilan, let's go, I'll take you to see the young master." Niu Wu asked for a reception carriage to be brought.

The reception carriage, produced by the City Lord's Mansion, is placed at the port to receive distinguished guests. Xilan is the daughter of the City Lord of Heishui and the next City Lord. He has a cooperative relationship with Xiyang City, so it is not an exaggeration to say that he is a distinguished guest.

"Okay." Hiran boarded the carriage and looked at the decorations in the carriage in surprise. There was a small table inside with several boxes on it.

"Miss Xilan, the snacks and drinks in the carriage are all edible." Niu Wu's voice came from outside the carriage, and then the carriage started to run.

"Can I eat it?" Sheeran blinked her brown eyes, opened the box curiously, and found a box full of unfamiliar things inside. She picked up a piece and smelled it, and it smelled like wheat.

"Crack..."

"Hmm~~ It's so crispy and fragrant." Xilan said in surprise, her brown eyes sparkled, and it was crunchy to the bite, very fragrant.

She became more curious about the other boxes, and quickly opened another box, which contained three small wooden sticks with a ball at one end.

"What is this?" Xilan was stunned, picked it up and smelled it, there was a faint fragrance, squeezed it with her hands, and found that it was hard inside.

She did recognize the thing wrapped in the small wooden stick, it was something called paper. She tore the paper off, revealing the gray orb inside.

"Is this for food too?" Sheeran hesitated, but still put the ball into her mouth, her eyes opened slightly, and she said in surprise, "It's so sweet."

Xilan was completely fascinated by the boxes on the table, just like a treasure hunt, looking forward to what was in the box, and when she realized it, she heard Niu Wu shouting outside.

"Miss Hiran, the castle is here."

"Huh? So fast?" Sheeran was stunned for a moment, she didn't feel the passage of time at all, and quickly shouted, "Okay, I'm coming down now."

"Tat Tat Tat..."

When Xilan came outside the carriage, he saw the decoration in the castle, which was much better than the castle in Blackwater City. The difference between the two was the same as that of a hut and a noble mansion.

"Miss Xilan, please follow me." Niu Wu calmly said, and took the lead to walk to the middle courtyard of the castle. At this point in time, the young master should be in the study.

"Okay." Hiran hurried to catch up.

"Tat Tat Tat..."

Xilan walked in the castle, and she was very surprised by what she saw and heard. The maids and guards were very polite. She also saw a few female orc maids laughing with human maids, which she had never seen before. passed.

After all, Heishui City is too remote and backward. There are no orcs going to Heishui City, just like Xiyang City before.

"Bang bang bang..."

Niu Wu knocked on the door of the study, which also attracted Xilan's attention. She quickly straightened her clothes, feeling a little nervous for no reason.

"Come in." A calm voice came from the study.

"Kagji!"

Niu Wu pushed the door open, and Xi Lan quickly followed.

"Master..." Niu Wu said respectfully.

"Xilan has met Your Excellency Liu Feng." Xilan pinched the hem of her skirt and gave an aristocratic salute.

"I'm back, thank you for your hard work." Liu Feng put down his pen and said gently, "Welcome Miss Xilan to Xiyang City."

"It's my honor to come to Xiyang City." Sheeran responded politely, and she carefully looked around.

She saw Miss Mina, whom she met last time, sitting casually on His Excellency Liu Feng's desk with a piece of fried fish in her mouth.

Miss Nicole was looking at her with a smile, and she quickly responded with a smile. There is also a little girl next to her with a pair of fox ears on her head, who is observing her curiously, and she also responds with a polite smile.

Liu Feng nodded lightly, looked at Niu Wu, and asked, "How is the task completed?"

"Master, the orc tribe is willing to trade with us." Niu Wu hurriedly said.

"Very good." Liu Feng nodded in satisfaction, as he had guessed.

"Young master, the mutton has also been brought back." Niu Wu reported, and by the way, told the process of going to the orc tribe.

"Oh? The leader of the orc tribe is a woman, but he didn't see what the other party looked like?" Liu Feng raised his eyebrows, which was unexpected, and asked, "You didn't even announce the name?"

"No." Niu Wu shook his head, and said in a slightly excited tone, "However, the other party is willing to meet and negotiate with you."

"Is it in Heishui City?" Liu Feng raised his mouth slightly.

"Yes, it's in Heishui City. The other party asked us to choose a date." Niu Wu said respectfully.

"That's it." Liu Feng nodded, frowning and thinking, he opened the notepad on the desktop and looked through it.

After a while, he said, "Niu Wu, after you rest for a few days, go to the orc tribe again, buy 500 horses and come back, and tell the leader of the orc tribe, let her book the meeting time. It’s our sincerity.”

Spring is not far away. After the spring, Xiyang City will start a lot of construction. The main force of transportation, the horses, will start to prepare a lot.

"Yes." Niu Wu respectfully replied.

Chapter 0493 book printed out.

Niu Wu left, leaving Xilan in the study, Liu Feng gave him three days off, and three days later he would lead the team to the orc tribe.

"An Li, write the order." Liu Feng said lightly.

"Yes." An Li immediately took out the paper and ballpoint pen, her fox ears perked up, waiting for Liu Feng's order.

"Let the logistics Niu San immediately put the mutton into storage, and put 50% of the mutton into the big market for sale, 20% to the army, and the remaining 30% to the processing workshop immediately, and let the workshop process it into canned meat for military use." Liu Feng said indifferently. Dao, this is a policy he formulated before, but the canned meat is 10% more, which is for future wars.

After all, the storm is coming, and the possibility of being involved in the battle for the throne is too great, so he has to prepare.

"Yes." An Li lowered her head and began to write. After finishing the letter, she handed it to the cat-eared lady. Now the delivery of the letter has been taken over by the Security Department.

Mina took the letter and left the study room. Strategic documents like this were delivered by herself.

"Miss Xilan, who are you here this time?" Liu Feng turned his head to look at Xilan who was staying quietly. He guessed what the Lord of Blackwater wanted his daughter to come over for. Hostage?
