Early in the morning, the castle was bustling again.
As for the deaths of Kate and the others, no one cared. Their bodies were taken away and the five glasses were taken back.
Liu Feng directly threw the glass to the market. There was an auction that had not yet opened. He had a big move tomorrow at the beginning of spring, and that auction was one of them.
He would take out some items at the auction, and those big merchants and nobles would throw a lot of gold coins there crazily.
Right now, Liu Feng was troubled by the population problem. The development of the territory had reached a bottleneck, and that was the population was too small. Just building a house alone would take away two-thirds of the people.
Not to mention that it would be wheat harvesting in a few days. After the wheat harvest, it would enter the long winter. This was also a problem he had to consider.
Did everyone have to be idle during winter? No, don't think about it. It was impossible to be idle, not even in his entire life.
Just like that, when he opened his eyes early in the morning, Liu Feng was thinking about many problems. He was even thinking about the development direction of Xiyang City.
He didn't know why, but he woke up earlier today, around 7 am. Perhaps it was because of Mina's question last night that he was a little concerned.
"Gagji!"
The door was pushed open and Nicole walked in quietly. However, she happened to meet Liu Feng's black eyes, causing her to be stunned for a second.
"Phew…Young Master, you're awake. I thought you were going to stay up until nine o'clock.”
Nicole heaved a sigh of relief. She had come in to take her clothes out to bask in the sun. After all, it would be a luxury to dry her clothes in the winter.
Now, the people in the castle used the watch that Liu Feng brought over to keep time.
Liu Feng had brought a lot of mechanical watches over, but not everyone had them. Only a few close people had them, and they were all carefully hidden, afraid that others would see them.
To them, this was simply a divine item, a divine item that could accurately divide time. One had to know that people in this era either looked at the time or the astronomical phenomena, or the nobles used candles as a way to measure time.
"Mi Na and the others are awake?" Liu Feng asked casually.
"No, I don't know what happened, but Mi Na and An Li haven't woken up yet.”Nicole asked in surprise.
Normally, Mina and An Li would wake up very early in the morning. Mina was exercising, while An Li was helping out with work.
After getting An Li, Liu Feng was able to extricate himself from the tedious work and some unimportant matters. He had given them to An Li to handle, and she had handled them very well.
"Is that so?" Liu Feng raised his eyebrows. Could it be that he didn't answer the question well last night?
Whether it was on Earth or here, he was a newbie who had never been in a relationship. However, he still had basic emotional intelligence. He felt that there was no problem with last night's answer. It was also an answer based on his heart.
Marrying a cat-eared girl or fox-eared girl didn't seem to be a problem at all. He didn't reject it. On the contrary, he was a little excited.
Under Nicole's service, Liu Feng arrived at the dining room and happened to see Mi Na and An Li yawning. Both of them had dark circles under their eyes.
"Morning!" Liu Feng greeted.
"Morning…Morning!" Mi Na's body was a little stiff as she replied with a flushed face.
"Morning ~ Aha ~" An Li replied lazily. She opened her small mouth and yawned. Her lips were curled up so much that soy sauce could hang from them.
An Li glared at Mina with resentment. This mutated feline girl had lost her mind last night. She had been talking to her all night. Even if she was tired, she wouldn't let her sleep. She only fell asleep at five in the morning.
Alright, Liu Feng's answer was that there was no problem at all, which caused Mina to lose sleep last night. She was so excited that she seemed to have been injected with hormones.
When Mi Na saw Liu Feng, she thought of last night's fantasy. She wore a wedding dress, sat on a high horse, and was married by Liu Feng.
The atmosphere at breakfast was a little strange. Mina's face was red, and the spoon was almost stuffed into her nose. She giggled from time to time.
An Li's eyes widened. She suspected that Mina was broken. She had seen this kind of idiotic look on the axe before.
"Young Master, there's no more salt in the kitchen.”
While eating breakfast, Nicole suddenly spoke. The salt she was talking about was the kind of snow salt that was like snow. It was salt that Young Master had brought from his hometown.
The salt of this era was not white, but gray. The taste of salt was not only salty, but also bitter.
"Then go to the palace treasury to get it later.”Liu Feng nodded. After tasting the salt of this era once, he no longer ate it.
Suddenly, he remembered that salt was very expensive in this era. He didn't know about other places, but in Xiyang City, a catty of salt cost dozens of copper coins.
Commoners would use a catty of salt for several months, but without salt, how could they have strength?
"Is there a salt shop in the big market?”Liu Feng raised his head and asked An Li.
"No, those salt merchants are unwilling to pay taxes.”An Li said in a low voice.
She remembered the servant's report. Those salt merchants seemed to be quite arrogant, thinking that Xiyang City could not do without them.
The salt in Xiyang City was all imported. It was all transported from far away by salt merchants. Even the nearby cities were the same.
Entering the big market required paying taxes, which were calculated based on income. The higher the income, the more taxes one had to pay.
Salt merchants were basically a money-snatching business. The taxes they had to pay were very exaggerated. They were not willing to go to the big market to be ripped off.
"Nicole, is there a salt mine nearby?”Liu Feng asked.
"Salt mine? Is there a mine for salt?" Nicole was stunned. She blinked and stared at Liu Feng.
"Young Master, are you mistaken? Salt comes from the sea." As An Li spoke, she reached out and took a piece of pastry from Mina's plate.
"You don't know about salt mines?" Liu Feng suddenly remembered that the industry in this world was zero, and the people who were struggling to make ends meet didn't know about salt mines.
"Immediately get someone to ask and see if there are any stones or soil nearby that are salty.”For the time being, Liu Feng could only use the most primitive method to find salt mines.
"Yes, sir!"
Nicole immediately sent someone to question him. She had a feeling that something big was about to happen.
