At this time, Kino recalled something. The night after the last meeting, he saw a raven flying out of the palace at night.

The raven was carrying a flying letter with only four words on it: "Po is dead."

Po is dead

At that time, Kino did not know who wrote the letter or who he was sending it to.

Now it seems that this flying letter was sent to Danyu City, to Gomai and Lin Gengsen?

In order to control the impact, Perseus did not disclose the news of Po's death to the outside world, but secretly negotiated with the Far Eastern Dynasty.

In other words, except for the people present in the conference room, the outside world did not know that A Bao was dead. Gomai and Lin Gengsen did not know it at first.

Could it be that the method they had previously thought of was to buy blood essence grass from Abao's caravan without uprooting the wheat ears in Danyu Plain, and use the purchase to farm it as a way to make a deal?

This is really a solution

However, the fundamental problem remains the same. Why didn't these two people directly implement the decree, instead of going around and around, obeying the decree and disobeying it secretly?

There must be some kind of benefit transfer relationship here, which makes them rather cooperate with profiteers like A Bao than execute government orders.

Moreover, a new question has arisen: Who is the person who sent that flying letter?

This person sent the Feishu, probably because he expected that Gomai and Lin Gengsen would choose to use the method of "purchase instead of farming" to do business. He sent the Feishu that "A Bao is dead" just to inform these two people in time not to leave.

this road.

In other words, this person knows Gome and Lin Gengsen very well, and the interest transfer relationship within Danyu City, and may even be involved in it himself.

who is it?

Kino's eyes silently swept over everyone present

Perseus, Andre, Bolton, Lysakhar, Lanxian, Edward, Horned Heron, Baldian, and the other 7 royal princes

Knowing the news of Abao's death, the only people who could send that flying letter were the people in the conference room.

Someone here, or some people, has an inexplicable relationship with Danyu City.

"One thing doesn't seem right." Just as Chino was thinking, Andre's voice attracted everyone's attention.

Andre stood up and came to the hanging strategic map. He picked up the baton and pointed it at Danyu City. He frowned and said: "According to the intelligence coming back from the front, there was a sudden south wind at the Dragon Fire Festival in Danyu City, and the fireworks were out of control, causing the eight major buildings in the north city to explode."

Granary on fire”

"Fires during the Dragon Fire Festival are not uncommon. They happen in many cities, but south wind? The climate in Danyu City is like spring all year round, but the wind direction is similar to that of other places. Nowadays, the wind blows from the north in this cold winter. How can there be a south wind?

"

"According to normal circumstances, the Danyu City Dragon Fire Festival fireworks will be set off in Nancheng, so that the embers of the fireworks will be blown south by the north wind and will not threaten the granary of Beicheng."

"But the south wind suddenly picked up there, and the fireworks drifted north, which directly caused the fire in the granary. This is really unexpected."

Burton said sarcastically: "So this fire was all caused by an abnormal celestial phenomenon. Do you want to blame the gods for sending a natural disaster? Are the people in Gomer not responsible at all?"

Andre couldn't help but shook his head: "If the situation is really as stated in the intelligence, and the south wind blows in the cold winter, this abnormal celestial phenomenon is indeed unpredictable. Man-made disasters can be prevented, but how can natural disasters be prevented? I really can't blame anyone."

"Of course, I'm not saying that Danyu City officials are not responsible. So much grain in the eight major granaries was burned to the ground. It must be due to poor follow-up fire fighting and failure to control the fire in time. Danyu City's grain officials cannot escape the blame."

Lan Xian held his forehead and said feebly: "I am also responsible for the current grain officer in Danyu City who was promoted by me. I went to the town for inspection a few months ago and met a local official named Ma Ban. Although this man looks very ugly,

But he worked diligently and responsibly, and I thought he was a good candidate, so I recommended him to Danyu City as a grain officer. I didn’t expect that he would make such a flaw just a few months after taking office. I was really wrong.”

Andre was silent for a moment, browsing the document carefully, and then put it in front of Lan Xian and said solemnly: "It doesn't seem right. According to the information sent back, during the Dragon Fire Festival, the current grain officer in Danyu City is named Kerry.

, not the pockmark you mentioned."

"What?!" Lan Xian took the document and looked through it carefully in shock, his brows knitting together, "They changed the grain officer I recommended so quickly? What on earth is Gomer doing?"

"Tuk! Tuk! Tuk!" Perseus tapped his knuckles on the table hard and said impatiently: "We will settle the accounts later. Now the only question is what should we do with the Blood Essence Grass?"

"I have negotiated with the Far Eastern Dynasty many times in the past few days. They have refused to provide us with blood essence grass for various reasons. It seems that they are determined to wait and see from the other side. We can only rely on ourselves."

"But now that the food aid has been burned out and the seeds of the Blood Essence Grass have not been planted, how will this matter proceed?"

When Perseus said this, he looked at Kino with a very serious tone: "You came up with the idea of ​​cultivating blood essence grass. You should think more carefully about various emergency plans than we do. Tell me what you think.

."

In fact, Kino didn't want to speak because the water was too muddy.

He originally thought that the plan he proposed could be implemented very efficiently. When the kingdom lifted the epidemic crisis, he would also be commended for proposing a reliable plan.

Fortunately, now, after being manipulated by the officials of Danyu City, the person who proposed this plan will be roasted on the fire.

The current problems focus on two points, lack of essence and grass, and lack of food.

Blood essence grass can only be cultivated, there is no other way, because the "respect system" cannot exchange for this kind of thing.

Food can be exchanged for "respect points", but it is not actually operable.

To allow the more than 6 million people in Danyu City to make a smooth transition to next year's autumn harvest, at least 1.62 million tons of grain will be needed.

How to explain such a huge amount that Chino just replaced it? You can't say it was saved at home, right?

Even if he insists that he snatched it from an extraterrestrial visitor, no matter whether others believe it or not, he won't be able to change it.

According to the price in the respect system, 1 ton of grain requires 20 respect points. 1.62 million tons is 32.4 million respect points. How can he have so many values?

Kino looked up at Perseus and said silently: "Besides persisting, do we have any choice?"

Although this statement is short, it is what most people think.

The impending epidemic crisis can only be relieved by blood essence grass. If you want to obtain blood essence grass, you must either import it from the Far East or cultivate it yourself.

The entrance road to the Far East is blocked, so only independent farming is possible, and the only place in the entire Doguland that meets the conditions for farming is the Danyu Plain.

Regardless of whether there is food assistance or not, for the sake of the overall situation, cultivating Blood Essence Grass is imperative and there is no other way.

Perseus had obviously lost trust in the officials of Danyu City. He no longer drafted any official documents and directly issued an order: "Andre, please prepare yourself. You will be fully responsible for this matter. You go to Danyu City with your own soldiers.
