The Dictatorial Lords

Chapter 157: Untitled Forty

Some irritable Locke simply threw the document in his hand. Stand up. The two maids saw that Locke suddenly stood up, not knowing the application. He asked suspiciously, "Sir. Are you?"

"It's nothing. Just a little upset. Go for a walk. Just look at the corn thing, and Lawrence told her to manage the food thing, and she doesn't know what to do. We're going to see it today, the corn has been planted for so long. .Should be about to mature, right? No matter how immature, I will be driven mad by these caravans." He walked out.

The two maids covered their mouths and snickered. Also follow up quickly.

When I came to the field, I happened to see Lawrence checking the food planted in the field. Seeing Locke coming over, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Sir, why are you free to come here today? Look, these are the corns you let you grow. They are growing very well. I have tasted them, and the taste is simply too delicious. Haha. . I like the taste. Better than sweet potatoes and potatoes. As soon as this kind of thing comes out, it will definitely be snapped up by the merchants outside."

Locke saw the corn. There was also a smile on his face. He said, "How, how long does it take for these corns to ripen? Now those caravans outside write letters to my office every day, and I'm getting bored these days."

"My lord, this... the corn can be picked now. But the sweet potatoes and potatoes may be a few days away. I'm thinking of sending workers to harvest them when they are all ready to be picked."

When Locke heard this, he was overjoyed. There is no time to wait a few days. Immediately said: "Don't wait. Now let the workers hurry to harvest the corn. Let those caravans and shops be able to sell as soon as possible. Let all the gold coins of the nobles enter our pockets."

Lawrence did not expect Locke to be in such a hurry. So he said: "Okay, my lord. I'll arrange for someone to come and harvest the food. But, my lord. Are we going to let those caravans transport all of this, or keep some of it?"

Although the business issues are all managed by Hal. But Lawrence still has to ask. Otherwise, all those caravans will be pulled over. If you don't leave a little bit of your own city, you can't justify it.

Is that even a question? Locke also hadn't eaten corn for a long time. I still miss the taste of my hometown. So he said, "Of course we will keep some of them, we can't sell them all. Our shop in Oroz will also be put on display. Otherwise, none of our own shops will be sold. How does it look from the outside."

Think of the corn can be harvested. Locke didn't stop here either. Where is he going to see Howl.

"Hal, Hal." Not in the door yet. Locke shouted.

When Hal heard it was Locke's voice, he hurried out and asked, "Sir, what's the matter? Did something happen to the Commerce Department?"

Locke didn't have the mood to joke with her and said quickly: "Hal. Lawrence's corn is ripe. Now that people are arranging for harvesting, you immediately stop the people and let the stewards of the caravan hold a meeting. Let's discuss it. How to distribute this corn. But we Oroz will definitely keep a part of corn for our own consumption in our city. How to do it is up to you. Also, sweet potatoes and potatoes are about to ripen, you Have a good talk with them next time. Our food is so popular outside. This price will definitely not be what it used to be. Just a little mention.”

Hal nodded. He didn't say much, and quickly ordered the people around him to go down and summon those caravan stewards.

Locke returned to the room, and the two little maids were holding some corn in their hands. Ready to try it for yourself.

It was a few days after Howl called the caravans to a meeting. The corn in Oroz was sold to several border countries one after another.

A steady stream of gold coins was hoarding in Orz's vault.

In the human kingdom, the eagle kingdom, those nobles who bought sweet potatoes and potatoes. I heard that Orz has another kind of food that can be stored for a long time. They all scrambled to buy them, and when they got home, they tasted the corn for themselves. Immediately ordered the servants to start a large amount of storage. Start drying and storage according to the caravan method.

This thing can be stored for a few years, can they not let them care? This kind of resource must be kept in their own hands before they are bothered. If the civilians at the bottom of the society have a large amount of storage. Where will their territory be managed in the future?

Why do the commoners at the bottom work for them, and why are they nobles. Not because they have food on hand. If they don't even have food. It is conceivable what will happen to their territory.

Those big powers, as well as the controller of the country, know that Oroz has a new food~www.readwn.com~ which can still be stored for a long time. What else can they do but hoard a lot? by force? Do not make jokes. Don't you see that others are not afraid of the empire? Still afraid of your kingdom? Not to mention those large forces. A power that the country does not dare. What else can they do? Like other forces, it can only be purchased in large quantities. This food is not like sweet potatoes, which go bad after a few months. This food can be stored for several years.

The meaning is different. Wait until All Oz's food is sold all over the world. You can imagine what a huge wealth this is. Some forces even bought corn as armaments for storage.

It can be said that during this period, Orz earned more gold coins than those countries. If you think about it, in addition to the main city and the market in front of Orz, a large piece of land in the back is used for food cultivation. How much food can be harvested per harvest?

Lawrence continued to expand this land under Locke's orders. It is conceivable that Orz could be said to be a large food exporter in the future.

Such a force is not something that can beat him to his attention. Zhang Zhao told Locke when he knew about corn, if Orz really developed to that point, unless a country wanted to deal with Orz. Other forces are definitely not qualified in front of Oroz.

In this backward world, food is in control. Where there is food, there is a right to speak.

Don't other forces know about this? Yes, of course. But what about knowing it? Not to mention that Orz is located in the Wilderness of Wiglott, even Orz's own strength should not be underestimated. Especially the knights that are displayed in front of outsiders. Has the strength to withstand the charge of tens of thousands of knights? Even the legions of those empires, few thought of tens of thousands of knights charging formation as the enemy.
