Starting Today, I’ll Work as a City Lord

She pulled out dozens of An Lichou's hair. Her intelligence made her the leader of the team, and Mina's bravery made her the second leader.

Six days ago, Mina went out to look for food again, and told Enri what she had been repeating for three years.

"An Li, if you don't come back in two days, you can take them to the south. The winter there will not be so cold. At least eating grass roots and wild fruits can keep everyone alive. Also, don't trust the human race, they are too hypocritical and cunning , once caught as a slave, then everything is over."

In this case, Enli can be said to have memorized it backwards. Every time Mina said this, she was very serious. She was two years older than Mina.

Perhaps years of malnutrition caused An Li to grow very slowly, and now she is 1.5 meters tall and looks very thin, like a little girl who can't grow up.

An Li agreed very seriously every time, and didn't take it to heart, because she believed that Mina would come back.

But... Six days have passed this time, and there is no news from Mina. This is unprecedented, and Mina will be back in two days at the latest.

Enri's little head thought of many bad fantasies, Mina was caught by the nobles? To be hanged by nobles? Or were they sold as slaves?

No, Enri shouted in her heart, this is impossible, Mina is the best warrior she has ever seen, several times stronger than those noble knights, it is impossible to be caught.

It has been six days, and An Li is becoming more and more anxious. She has no sense of security at all now. Without Mina, even if she has food, it is difficult for her to swallow it.

She has been thinking about whether to go to the south. Mina believes that she will take these orcs to the south, but she does not want to go to the south. The south without Mina is colder than the winter here.

"Sister Anli, are we really going to the south?"

A male voice in the voice-changing period sounded, this is a bull orc with horns.

An Li regained consciousness from the memories, and looked at the thin boy in front of her. This was the little orc Mina brought back back then, called Axe, and he was fifteen years old this year.

Generally, a bull orc of this age will grow to a height of more than 1.8 meters, and he is a mighty warrior.

But Axe is now a 1.6-meter-long dwarf, still very thin. Even though Axe is very strong now, no worse than a 1.8-meter-long bull warrior, he is still hungry.

Seeing Anli's silence, Ax couldn't help shouting anxiously, "Sister Anli, let's not go to the south. I heard that the human race over there hates us very much. If they see orcs, they will be captured and taken as slaves."

"Besides, Second Sister Mina hasn't come back yet. I miss her."

Ever since Axe was rescued by Mina and Anli, he has always treated them as lifesavers and sisters, and dared not show any disrespect, even if it cost him his life. Now Mina hasn't come back for six days.

"Axe, let's not go to the south, let's find Mina, she is waiting for us to rescue her." An Li showed a pure lily smile on her face.

"Hmm! We are going to rescue Mina's second sister."

"Mina should have gone to the territory of Xiyang City six days ago. Everyone should pack up. We set off at night, and it should take a day or two to get there."

Chapter 0029 is taking advantage of you.

"Hey! What should I do? The price of rough wheat has increased again, five copper coins per catty, and refined wheat has even increased to seven copper coins per catty. Who can afford it?"

"That's right! We're going to starve to death before the autumn wheat harvest comes."

"Damn it, those unscrupulous grain merchants raise their prices at this time of year. It's hard for Mr. Liu Feng to come and exempt us from a lot of taxes, but those grain merchants add an extra copper coin compared to previous years..."

Buff's face was serious. He could hear such voices all the time while walking on the road, which made him wish to slaughter those unscrupulous grain merchants.

In the past few days, he has lived a very full life. During the day, he is busy with the things that the city lord told him, and at night he goes to the military camp to teach those big stupid birds.

Buff suddenly thought of the school he re-opened. It has been three days and no one has signed up. This must not make him think about it.

Could it be that the city lord can do nothing? But those white papers that can be written on gave him a little hope, although he didn't know why those slightly yellowish papers were called white papers.

Buff was thinking wildly all the way, he was going to see the Lord of the City now, and he had to report some urgent matters, of course, if he came during lunch, he might be ten times more willing.

For example, what if the city lord suddenly invited him to eat steak? Buff thought of his little grandson, clamoring to eat steak, and his wife, son and daughter-in-law looked at him with adoring eyes, which made him a little ecstatic.

But now this matter is more urgent, he has to report to Lord City Master as soon as possible, this is related to the life and death of Xiyang City.

Buff was interviewed soon, in Liu Feng's study, this was the first time Buff entered the study of Lord Santo.

"Huhu..." Buff was short of breath, he lowered his head, not daring to look at the things in the study, he was afraid of fainting.

Luxury and magnificence are the only things Buff can describe. He has seen many legendary things recorded in books here, such as the transparent crystal glass, which is said to be only available to kings.

"Buff, sit down!" Liu Feng put down the water glass and pointed to the chair in front of the desk, "What's the matter today? I asked you to come early in the morning?"

Buff saluted respectfully, and then sat on the chair with half of his buttocks. He was very nervous. To meet him in this study room full of treasures is the trust of the city lord.

"My lord, someone found traces of orcs in the forest to the west." After Buff finished speaking, he glanced at the cat-eared lady sitting on the desk.

Mina paused slightly with her hand stuffing the pastry into her mouth, her tail flicked uneasily.

"Orcs? How many people are there?" Liu Feng became interested. He came to this world for more than a month, and only saw Mina as an orc.

"My lord, there are more than a dozen orcs who have been scouted by hunters." Buff looked serious, "I suspect it is the vanguard of the orcs, and they will come to snatch them during the autumn harvest."

Liu Feng nodded lightly, resting his chin with one hand, tapping his fingers on the table, "Do you think these orcs will come to snatch the wheat as in previous years?"

"Uh... Xiyang City was only stolen by a few orcs in the past years, but I heard that several other cities have been robbed by a large number of orcs." Buff scratched his cheek.

Liu Feng knew that the location of Xiyang City was relatively remote and the land was relatively barren, and the orcs could not get anything if they came to rob it, so they seldom came here.

Horse thieves made up of humans and thieves made up of orcs are both hazards during the autumn harvest. They only rob things in order to survive.

Many orcs lived in the confinement mountains. They had to find enough food before winter came, otherwise they would starve to death for four months.

Mina spent the cold winter in the confinement mountains before, she was a little lost in thought, thinking of An Li, thinking that they should go to the south, right?

"I understand. I will let people pay attention to the traces of the orcs." Liu Feng nodded and changed the subject and asked, "Is anyone going to your night school these days?"

"Night school?" Buff was a little dazed. After a little thought, he knew that this new word was describing his college, and quickly responded, "My lord, no one comes to my night school to learn how to read."

"Don't worry, someone will be there tonight." As expected, Liu Feng took out a roll of paper from the painting vat beside him, handed it to Buff, and said, "Paste this on the bulletin board."

Buff knew what the bulletin board was. It was a wooden wall erected on the small square. The city lord stood there. The city lord didn't like to go out and shout, so he would post his requests on the bulletin board.

He also felt that the city lord should not be allowed to go out and speak out, which would be too much of a nobleman's status. If something was posted on the bulletin board, he would come and read it to everyone. This feeling fascinated him.

Buff took the roll of paper and slowly opened it. Seeing the request on it, he couldn't help but widen his eyes and said, "My lord, how can this be done?"

"Why not? Anyway, there are still 20 days until the autumn harvest. They are usually idle, right?" Liu Feng said lightly.

Buff said anxiously, "But this is really unfair to you, everyone is taking advantage of you."

"The entire Xiyang City is mine, who can take advantage of me, Buff, you have to let go of your mind." Liu Feng was a little bit dumbfounded, "Okay, just do as I ask."

Chapter 0030: Urban planning in another world.

Buff left with a lot of doubts, and he couldn't understand what the city lord was doing more and more.

Is there really a nobleman who is willing to pay so much for the common people? Buff has been to several cities, but he has never seen such nobles.
