468 Chapter 468: Find Something Incredible
Inside the residence of the Prince Regent in Kyoto.
Patrick brought Alonso to this meeting.
On the huge conference table, Prince Regent Kirilenko sat on the main seat, and the others were real powerful nobles in Kyoto.
"Because the economic blockade of the Maxim Federation not only does not allow us to import food, but also refuses us to export various large-scale commodities, which seriously affects the economic development of the provinces. If this continues, the nobles in various places will not be able to support them."
Duke Uzmi said indifferently.
Although the matter is very serious, the main industries of the Baral family are in Kyoto. After all, the market in Kyoto is so big that it can be more or less digested, and the impact is not big, so when I say this, I lack interest.
Other nobles are not so relaxed. The iron ingots and various commodities produced in the territory are their source of wealth. Now they are all unsalable in the territory. The situation in the entire continent is extremely bad. No one dares to form a caravan to trade at this time. There are refugees everywhere, who knows if they, who are hungry and crazy, will make a guest appearance as a robber by the way.
Large-scale commerce also requires a large number of people to be responsible. Without enough food, the caravan cannot go far.
All in all, everyone is poor now and has no financial income, and life is getting more and more difficult. Let's sit together and talk about this issue.
After discussions and discussions, in the end, even a decent solution was not discussed.
The regent looked at Patrick and said with a smile, "I heard from the spies that Melox province has not been affected by drought or locust plagues. This year is still a harvest year."
Patrick's eyebrows twitched, and he said casually, "I heard, and then?"
Veins popped up on the regent's forehead, and his voice couldn't help but turn a little cold.
"The royal family has reached a trade agreement with the Melox province. I heard that they have purchased nearly a hundred tons of grain from the Melox province. Recently, they even organized a large locust hunting team to clear the locusts near the river."
Patrick couldn't help but lost himself in thought.
The other nobles were also beaming, at least they heard good news from it.
Melox province has money and food.
Alonso's breathing couldn't help but quicken.
The higher Aslan went, the harder it was for Alonso.
"And then?" Patrick said indifferently.
Uzmi said casually: "Then I will let you build a bridge to see if you can buy a batch of grain from the Melox Province. If you can, sell these commodities to the Melox Province by the way."
Patrick was silent for a long time, finally shook his head, and quickly shifted his target.
"My relationship with Aslan has reached a freezing point. It's better for Uzmi to come forward. After all, your niece is now the lord of the main city of Kess."
Uzmi opened his eyes and said helplessly, "I am the one who killed her biological parents. I am afraid that I will never return."
The Prince Regent eventually shifted his target to the Duke of Durandal.
"Duke Durandal, why don't you go to Melox province? See if you can use this to open up a trade route. If necessary, we can make a profit."
The Duke of Durandal was a gray-haired old man who sat quietly at a corner of the conference table and did not speak from the beginning to the end. He was completely transparent.
He has always been called a good old man in Kyoto, and he is also a famous university scholar in Kyoto.
If you dare to despise him because you think he is a good old man, the end will be very tragic.
The more educated people are, the more vicious they are when they harm others.
Durandal nodded.
"Okay, I'll go to Mellow City myself, and pay a visit to my old friend Cornwall."
Inside the Kyoto Imperial Palace.
The little emperor Shani was lazily eating a frozen sweet meringue. This is a meringue specially produced by Aslan for nobles. The color is mainly white and light green.
It is simply impossible to eat only one meal a day, let alone a little emperor who is still growing.
The protein cakes are exchanged for the capture of locusts by the Imperial Guards in Kyoto. On the one hand, it reduces food consumption, and on the other hand, it ensures the combat effectiveness of the Imperial Guards in Kyoto.
In order to facilitate and quickly transport the locusts, in the past six months, several great wizards have majored in magic space, and expanded the magic space to eight cubic meters. Coupled with the flying magic horse that is being tested, they can go back and forth in a few days.
Because of the air transport, the royal family has become more and more nourished during this period of time. It even used this to win over many small nobles in Kyoto, which greatly improved the strength of the royal family.
Vlada also sat on the side and ate the meringue, which was a high-calorie food, and one piece at a time was enough for him at his age.
Yitzhak looked at the two enjoying themselves angrily, and tore off a chicken leg by himself.
The farming industry in Mellow City is very developed now, especially pork and chicken, which are affordable even for ordinary civilians. This time, the big wizard brought back a "cart" of meat.
It's just that the little emperor and Flada prefer to eat soft protein cakes compared to meat.
"Recently, Melox Province has been unexpectedly quiet. Besides doing business, it hardly participates in other affairs?" Yitzhak looked at Flada and asked.
The little emperor stuffed the last piece of protein cake into his mouth, and looked at Flada seriously.
Eating one meal a day is for the public to see, the majestic emperor is still short of a grain.
Vlada put down the knife and fork in his hand, and said solemnly: "On the surface, I am only doing business, but secretly my people discovered something extraordinary."
"Um!"
Yitzhak and the little emperor couldn't help showing solemn expressions.
"Melo City seems to be connected to the Yadong subcontinent. Some time ago, I saw Melo City use a huge aerial vehicle to transport supplies to the Yadong subcontinent. Now on the border, a huge logistics base has taken shape." Rada told the most important information of this meeting.
"East Asia subcontinent?" Yitzhak couldn't help but feel refreshed.
Regarding the East Asian subcontinent, as long as people with certain identities know that place, it is separated by the ocean and several steep mountains, and the only exit happens to be blocked by the Maxim Federation.
The Maxim Federation rose by plundering the wealth of the East Asian subcontinent.
If Aslan really establishes a trade relationship with the East Asian subcontinent, it will also be a constraint for the Maxim Federation.
"How is the Yadong subcontinent now?" the little emperor asked curiously.
Flada said with a look of disgust: "It's very poor. The entire East Asian subcontinent is divided into dozens, even hundreds of countries. War is the first theme there. The overall technological level is decades behind the mainland, but there is one advantage. It has to be said that the grain production in the East Asian subcontinent is very high, and more than 70% of the grain in the Maxim Federation comes from the Eastern Asian subcontinent."
