After the meeting, Doguland was like a huge machine that began to operate at high speed. Under the leadership of King Perseus, the oracle with the laurel seal was sent to Danyu City at night.

At the same time, the treasury worked day and night, and the strategic grain reserves sealed in the basement were continuously transported out, loaded into carriages and cargo ships, and transported via land to Danyu City as a relief for uprooting wheat ears in the Danyu Plain. 600

The life and death of millions of people depend on it.

It is worth mentioning that the strategic grain reserves of the national treasury are not ordinary wheat, but a special variety called "Century Wheat" cultivated by palace scholars.

Centennial wheat does not have any special nutrients, and its taste is not much different from ordinary wheat, but its shelf life is incredibly long.

The wheat bran of Centenary Wheat contains a rare preservation factor, which has powerful insect repellent and antiseptic effects. As long as it is stored in a sealed and cool place, it can last for hundreds of years, hence the name Centenary Wheat.

Centenary wheat is rarely circulated in the market. First, its average yield per mu is low, less than one-tenth of that of ordinary wheat. Its nutritional and satiety effects are not much different from ordinary wheat, so ordinary people cannot use it.

With such a long shelf life, I would not deliberately buy wheat.

Those who have a demand for century-old wheat are generally those nobles who like to store grain. They will buy a certain amount of century-old wheat and seal it in a warehouse. Because of its anti-corrosion properties, they can put it in and forget about it. There is no need to consider the issue of anti-corrosion and regular warehouse changes.

, very worry-free.

Then there is the Kingdom official. The century-old wheat has the characteristics of being incorruptible for a hundred years and is very suitable for use as a strategic grain reserve. It is only sealed and not opened in normal times. The stock is regularly expanded and the warehouse is opened and released in emergencies.

In order to reduce management costs, the strategic grain reserves of the Doguland Kingdom are all century-old wheat. As for where this wheat comes from, the royal family will issue quotas for farmland in various places, requiring control of the farming ratio of century-old wheat and ordinary wheat.

This ratio is very particular. The ratio of century-old wheat is too low. If it is too low, it will not reach the strategic reserve target this year. In the long run, it will weaken the macro-control ability of the royal family and may become a disaster.

It is not good to have a too high ratio of century-old wheat, because the farmland area in the whole kingdom is only a small amount, and the average yield of century-old wheat per mu is low. If the planting ratio is too high, it will seriously squeeze the cultivation space of ordinary wheat ears, resulting in a decrease in the total wheat output.

When the total amount of food drops to a certain threshold, famine will occur.

Therefore, the indicators generally stipulate that the ratio of century-old wheat and ordinary wheat cultivated in farmland in various places is 1:9. In an average of 10 acres of fields, 1 acre is planted with century-old wheat and 9 acres are planted with ordinary wheat to ensure a balance between supply and demand.

Since Perseus took office, Doguland has experienced the Laurel War in 486 Years of Fire, the coup in 500 Years of Fire, and the reappearance of extraterrestrial visitors in recent years. People from all over the world have been asking the royal family for money and food, causing chaos.

The national treasury and strategic grain reserves are not very sufficient, which is far from the prosperous period in history.

In this Blood Essence Grass incident, Danyu City needs a full 1.62 million tons of food. Such a huge amount has almost reached the bottom of the strategic reserve.

But there was no way, Perseus had no choice in this matter, he had to do it even if he didn't want to do it.

In order to speed up the efficiency, Perseus personally went into battle to supervise the food preparation this time. With the king directly taking the lead, the cashier side of the reserve was naturally running smoothly.

Not only are the workers working hard, but the extraordinary ones are not idle either. One trip for the sturdy warriors of the Trojan family is worth ten trips for ordinary people, not to mention the earth-moving dragons of the Regnom family and the sea beasts of the Dagon family.

Now, the grain that can be transported in one trip can be calculated in "tons", and the Eric family's spiritual masters are not lagging behind. Various energy currents are surging around them, and the sky is full of grain bags flying steadily.

With the joint efforts of many parties, it took only two days to transport all 1.62 million tons of century-old wheat out of the warehouse, load it into carriages and cargo ships, and transport it to Danyu City.

Perseus was standing at the dock at this time, looking at the distant cargo ship disappearing at the end of the coastline. He couldn't help but sigh: "1.62 million tons of century-old wheat can be used for 287 fully-equipped legions in the kingdom, and a total of 2.23 million soldiers for a whole year.

The military supplies and fodder are now forced by the Scarlet Church to be used to aid Danyu City."

Kino stood next to Perseus and watched the cargo ship going away with him. He squinted and said, "History has limitations. I don't want to evaluate previous national policies with my current eyes. That is unfair. And I believe that

, you are the person who hates the Scarlet Church the most, because of their existence, you not only paid for your own political interests, but even at the expense of your daughter."

Perseus didn't look at Kino and just asked calmly: "What do you want to express?"

Kino: "A few days ago, I met Mimolo, the son of the Archbishop of the Scarlet Church."

Perseus: "And?"

Kino leaned on the sloping railing by the port, looking at the rippling sea with eyes that reflected the setting sun: "Tell me about Solandelle's engagement?"

Perseus's expression was still calm: "What is there to say? This is the fate of being born into a royal family. I have one daughter, but my people have thousands of daughters. Another leader would stand in my position.

, will make the same choice - have to make the same choice."

Kino: "Compromise, is this a long-term solution? You should also be able to see that with the development of the Scarlet Church, in addition to the secret recipe of blood therapy, their own existence has threatened the kingdom, and this threat is increasing day by day. This time

is a good example.”

Perseus: "Then what can we do? As long as the secret of blood therapy is not in our hands and the disease of lycanthropy still exists, the Scarlet Church can continue to grow."

Kino: "If I copy the secret recipe for blood therapy in the future, or develop something that can replace blood therapy, or even find a way to completely cure the disease of lycanthropy, what can you give me?"

Perseus' pupils expanded rapidly and he looked at Kino in shock, but after a brief silence, his pupils returned to their original size and he asked silently: "If you do it, what do you want?"

Kino asked again: "What can you give me?"

Perseus looked at Kino's side face, his eyes as deep as the waves on the sea: "Do you know? What you just said shocked me at first, but I was only shocked for a while."

"Because I suddenly discovered that you have created too many miracles and given the kingdom too many surprises. Let alone the future, even if you take out a medicine that can completely cure the disease of beast transformation, I won't be too surprised.

."

Kino still said the same thing: "So, if I do it, what can you give me?"

Perseus looked at the sea silently, without any emotion in his voice: "Before answering your question, I would like to ask you to answer a question first - why are you dealing with the Scarlet Church? For your own bright future? For the sake of the kingdom

Prosperity and stability?”
