Gomai hurriedly finished his inspection and survey of Danyu Plain and hurried back to the government residence with Lin Gengsen.

The two closed the office door and ordered the guards to wait outside. No visitors would be seen.

Seeing Gomer acting in a hurry, Lin Gengsen was a little puzzled: "What's wrong with you today? You're in such a hurry, it's a bit unlike you."

Gome glanced at Lin Gengsen, took out the king's manuscript sent by the messenger from his arms, and handed it over: "Look at this manuscript, I don't understand what is written on it."

Lin Gengsen opened the manuscript and read it carefully, his brows quickly knitted into a ball: "Isn't it nonsense to pull out wheat ears and cultivate blood essence grass? In a month or two, this season's wheat will be ripe, and the granary needs this batch of wheat.

Go and fill it up. There are still more than 6 million mouths in Danyu City to feed. Now that the wheat ears have been plucked, what will everyone eat?"

Gomer's expression seemed to be filled with hatred, and his voice became heavier: "You are just impatient. Can you finish reading it first?!"

Lin Gengsen clicked his tongue and continued to read. His brows furrowed more and more as he read. After reading everything, he slowly closed the oracle, squinted and said, "We were actually given food aid for more than half a year, and all the food was given to us.

It is century-old wheat allocated from the strategic reserve."

Gome paced back and forth, lost in thought: "I don't quite understand, where is the king going? No one in the Blood Essence Kingdom has ever heard of any industry that requires Blood Essence Grass. At most, some people like new things.

Nobles would buy it and use it as a tonic to stew."

"But now, the king requires us to pull out all the wheat ears in Danyu Plain and plant blood essence grass instead. He even directly opened the strategic reserve granary and shipped us so much relief grain. What does this mean? It's too sudden."

"Could it be a transformation of the economic structure?" Lin Gengsen raised a possibility and analyzed, "The blood essence grass has no value in Doguland, but it is a must-have for the Far Eastern warriors to practice. Maybe the king wants to

We will deepen export trade and plan to transform Danyu Plain starting from this year."

Gome quickly shook his head: "It shouldn't be that the Danyu Plain has been the most important grain-producing area in Dogulland since the founding of the ancient king 513 years ago. Its status cannot be shaken or replaced."

"Taking a step back, even if we really want to transform the economy, we should wait until the harvest period of this batch of wheat ears has passed. There is no reason to rush to pull out the nearly mature wheat ears. Doing so will cause too much loss."

Lin Gengsen sneered and said in a mocking tone: "If you ask me, this king really doesn't understand the situation. The farmland in Danyu Plain has long been contracted to hundreds of noble families, and the property rights are with them. They can't grow whatever they want.

It's not up to us officials to have the final say. This decree should be presented to the nobles to see if they agree."

"You are so careless, look at this!" Gomer took the king's oracle, crossed over the last line, and read it out, "Limited to handing over 6,270 tons of blood essence grass before the flower language season next year.

Those who exceed the time limit will be punished.”

Gomer looked at this line of words and sighed with some regret: "If you exceed the deadline, you will be punished. The king also knows that those lands belong to the nobles, but by writing this now, he is actually putting pressure on us and forcing us to implement the executive order. If it comes

If we fail to deliver on time, our lives will be in danger."

Lin Gengsen waved his hand and said coldly: "How can this be so easy? Although the imperial edict stated that the royal family would have full rights to purchase the Blood Essence Grass at a high premium, but the wheat in Danyu Plain..."

When Lin Gengsen said this, he paused for some reason and said impatiently: "As for those wheat things, it's not like you don't know that the royal family gave you such a small profit, which is not even a sesame seed. How could you let those nobles do it?"

concession?"

Gome's eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice: "That's what I say, but no matter what, you and I have to pay a mission. If we can't pay a mission, I'm afraid the 'one' above won't be able to protect us."

Lin Gengsen sighed and sat down: "I really don't understand, 'who' just watched such a ridiculous proposal pass the vote? Doesn't he care?"

"And that birdman Lan Xian, who is not good to promote? He promoted that damn thing Maban to be the grain officer. I was almost pissed off by him today."

"Okay, stop saying these complaints. Be careful that walls have ears." Gomer glanced at the closed door.

He said he was careful, but in fact he had no worries at all. The walls of the office were made of soundproof wood. Let alone human ears, even if an owl was placed outside, it would not be able to hear what was going on inside.

He sighed, frowned, and said helplessly: "Now that the king has done such a bad job, we are not human inside and out. It is really difficult to handle."

Lin Gengsen was deep in thought, and for some reason, a faint smile slowly appeared on his face, and he said in a teasing tone: "Lao Mai, you used to think you were smart and thought I was dumber than you. But in my opinion

Come on, at least you're not any smarter than me on this matter."

Gomer was puzzled: "What do you mean? Have you thought of a good countermeasure?"

Lin Gengsen smiled briefly, took the king's oracle and spread it on the table: "I asked, why did you get into a dead end and can't get out?"

"Whether we can hand over the task, to put it bluntly, is just to see if we can deliver 6,270 tons of blood essence grass on time. If you think about it again, is it possible that we can only grow the blood essence grass ourselves, and there is no other way to obtain it?"

After a brief silence, Gomai quickly reacted: "You mean, instead of pulling out the wheat ears in Danyu Plain, we secretly bought enough blood essence grass, pretending that we grew it, and sent it to

Going up to deliver a business?"

"That's what I mean." Lin Gengsen shrugged, "Although I don't know what the higher-ups want the Blood Essence Grass for, but the Blood Essence Grass is the Blood Essence Grass. What's the difference between growing it and buying it? Since the handwriting says that overdue ones will be punished, we

Why don’t you just buy the Blood Essence Grass as soon as possible before it’s overdue?”

Gomer hesitated: "This"

Lin Gengsen urged: "What is this? Hundreds of noble families have been busy for several months. They have invested so many monthly coins in seeds, fertilizers, and labor costs. It is about to have a good harvest. You go and pull out the wheat ears at this time.

Now, do you believe they ate you alive?"

"When the time comes, you will communicate with the superiors. How will you communicate with the nobles? The forces behind them are complicated. If they jointly impeach you because of this matter, will your position as consul still be secure?"

Obviously, Gomer also had concerns in this regard. He was caught in a dilemma for a while. His eyes wandered left and right, and finally fell on Lin Gengsen's face. He said in a low voice: "The Blood Essence Grass is a natural treasure of the Far Eastern Dynasty. Do you have it?"

Can the channels be purchased?”

Lin Gengsen showed a mysterious smile and said quite confidently: "Don't underestimate my connections. I know a wealthy businessman. I drank with him several times before and had close contacts with him. Although this guy has a bad character, he has

Whatever you want to buy, he can sell it to you."

"Who is this giant businessman?" Gomer asked.

Lin Gengsen dipped his finger in some tea and wrote a name on the table.
