Chapter 149 The Final Preparations! Literacy Education is Urgent!
"Well done, someone will come to collect it shortly..."
Xiao Yu glanced casually at the papers on the shelf and nodded in satisfaction.
These papers are naturally made from bamboo, and are the roughest kind of paper.
However... it's still much better than parchment.
Under the catalytic effect, bamboo reproduces rapidly.
There are already hundreds of bamboo plants in the planting area, most of which are mature.
Paper production is now barely enough to supply the needs of the city lord's mansion.
Next... Xiao Yu inspected the primary industry (excluding planting) one by one... the secondary industry (pottery making)... the tertiary industry (forging)...
Both of these industries are growing larger and larger, and are developing rapidly.
During this period, the inventory of goods in both industries has been worth millions of energy stones!
A moment later, Xiao Yu returned to the city lord's mansion.
With a thought, he sent a telepathic message to Honglian, who was busy in the Hall of Merit, instructing her to notify all the middle and senior-level officials to come to the City Lord's Mansion conference room for a meeting.
Xiao Yu's mental power now covers a range of over 1500 meters.
As long as you are within this range, you can use your mental power to transmit your voice.
It's somewhat similar to...the transmission of sound over a thousand miles in martial arts novels.
"Hello, Lord City Lord!"
"Lord City Lord!"
A moment later, a series of bows and greetings rang out.
Honglian and Xinglan were both in the Hall of Merit next to the City Lord's Mansion, and they returned as quickly as possible.
Then came Xiaoyu and Yingzi, Chu Ling Shuang, Chenlong and Tie Nan, Sun Yubo...
The main leaders of all the important departments and workshops in Longcheng arrived one after another.
The last to return were the three beast-eared girls, Six Joys, Six Months, and Seven Kills.
This is because... Chenlong, Tienan, and the other Dragon City guards are only the visible defensive force.
As key members of the Dragon City intelligence agency, these three women possess extraordinary sensory abilities, including smell, shadow perception, hearing, and vision, far exceeding those of ordinary people.
They wear dragon armor every day and hide throughout Dragon City, serving as the city's second line of defense.
The three women's routes were all secretive and random; no one knew where they were.
So... they finally received the news and rushed back at the very last minute.
"As everyone knows, we will arrive at the trade fair no later than tomorrow!"
Once everyone was seated, Xiao Yu scanned the room and said solemnly, "So...we need to make final preparations! This trade fair must make a name for Dragon City!"
Upon hearing this, everyone perked up and instinctively sat up straight.
"Since it's a trade fair, the most important thing will naturally be the trading of goods! The first thing... we need to discuss the pricing of various items in the commercial street..."
After all... many of the goods in Dragon City are not available elsewhere, and there is no reference for them.
Blindly setting prices is definitely not a good idea!
If the price is too high, sales will be hampered, and goods may accumulate and spoil.
And with prices set too low... Longcheng suffered huge losses!
"Everyone, take a look..." Xiao Yu said, handing an A4 sheet of paper to Honglian on his left. "This... is a list of all the goods that Dragon City is currently selling..."
"The corn, tomatoes, and cabbage we sold before were all top-quality delicacies unique to Longcheng, and they're also fast-moving consumer goods, so the prices can remain unchanged for now..." Honglian said casually after glancing at them.
As he spoke, he handed the list to Chu Ling Shuang, who was standing to the side.
As the deputy city manager, she had the most to do.
Even without looking at the list, she knew perfectly well what goods Dragon City had.
Chu Ling Shuang was the second to read it, and she quickly made a note of it without rushing to express her opinion.
Then... I looked at the four auspicious days and the seven killings and three women in June.
June stared wide-eyed at it, scrutinizing it for a long time before she finally understood.
Si Xi's red eyes swept over quickly, without much effort.
As for Qi Sha... she awkwardly pinched her nose, widened her dark eyes, and stared until they became cross-eyed.
Xiaoyu and Yingzi are both Honglian's right-hand women.
They had some knowledge of all kinds of goods; after glancing at them a few times, they basically remembered them.
When the A4 paper was pushed to Chenlong, Chenlong pushed it to Tienan instead, saying, "Brother Tienan, you should take a look first."
As a result... Tetsuo, looking completely embarrassed, simply pushed it back...
The two were deliberately shoving each other, but the old man, Sun Yubo, took it and examined it carefully.
Xiao Yu watched all this and silently rubbed his forehead.
He realized that half of the high-ranking officials at his table in Longcheng were illiterate.
Honglian and Chu Lingshuang were the most educated, while Xinglan, under her sister's supervision, could barely be considered a beginner.
June is a jack-of-all-trades, Sixi is the smartest of the three girls, and as for Seven Killings, let's not even mention them...
Xiao Yu was quite pleased with Xiao Yu and Yingzi, as they were considered capable assistants.
As for Chenlong and Tienan, these two grown men have always let their fists do the talking.
"Sigh..." Xiao Yu sighed inwardly, "Literacy education in Dragon City is urgently needed!"
"Alright, everyone has finished watching."
"The goods in my Dragon City are currently divided into three main categories according to their type and purpose: food products such as tomatoes, corn, and cabbage... daily necessities such as water, iron pots, and cloth... weapons..."
I've divided the commercial street into three sections: a food street, a daily necessities street, and an arms section...
Now, let's all share our thoughts...
Next, everyone engaged in a heated discussion.
The final draft was not completed until late at night.
"I still have hundreds of thousands of energy points to prepare for the upcoming trade fair..." Late at night, after everyone had left, Xiao Yu looked at the system panel. He had obtained hundreds of thousands of energy stones on the last full moon night.
At the trade fair, Dragon City had so many treasures, and they were all incredibly valuable!
Just in case, Xiao Yu decided to use up these energy points.
Give your pets a boost.
With that in mind, he issued the command directly through the system.
[Ding! 100000 energy points consumed, Queen Bee advances to Tier 6!]
[Ding! Copying the Queen Bee's talent - Mind Control Poison Sting! Fusion in progress... Fusion complete.]
……
[Ding! Consuming 100000 energy points, the Five-Colored Spirit Butterfly has advanced to Tier 6!]
[Ding! Copying the Five-Colored Spirit Butterfly talent - Energy Perception! Fusion in progress... Fusion complete.]
……
[Ding! Consumed 100000 energy points, the Three-Colored Chicken bloodline has undergone a transformation, evolving into a Tier 6 Phoenix-Tailed Chicken! Talent gained - Hundred Feather Flying Knife!]
[Ding! Copying the Phoenix Tail Chicken talent - Hundred Feather Flying Knife! Fusion in progress... Fusion complete.]
……
Next, a series of system notification sounds rang out.
One by one, the pets began to transform rapidly, their strength increasing several times over.
After half an hour.
A queen bee, two colorful butterflies, three tricolor chickens, and a Bodhi tree and a mulberry tree...
There are a total of eight pets, all of which have evolved to the sixth tier.
