Chapter 172 The Great Harvest

After watching too much, they found that the frequency of homing pigeons shuttled back and forth was very high, and they always flew in the same direction, unlike wild pigeons, like artificially raised pigeons.

Some orcs are pigeon breeders. After discovering the strangeness of the pigeons, they also followed up the mountains and forests. However, the distance was far away.

However, he did not give up after returning to the house, and drew a flight path of pigeons on the parchment map he revised. After two days of investigation, he found that the routes of pigeons overlapped, and they clearly pointed to Tomorrow Town.

"It's Tomorrow Town!" The pigeon breeder was a little panicked, the news was not good.

Since the start of the New Commodities Conference in Tomorrow Town, Wangcheng has issued a message to block the economy of Tomorrow Town, ordering major towns to prohibit trading with merchant ships in Tomorrow Town, and ordering to strictly arrest black merchants from Tomorrow Town.

However, Wangcheng was short of troops. When the news spread to the major cities and towns, it had been a few days before the caravan in Tomorrow Town retreated with a large amount of supplies.

"Tomorrow Town is a stronghold of the anti-lion faction. Now that Tomorrow Town has become independent, does the flow of these pigeons prove that he is finally going to attack other towns?" The pigeon breeder in Nitpeter Town was sweating profusely, obviously afraid that Tomorrow Town would follow. The kingdom is at war.

Once a war starts, the slaves and farmers at the bottom will suffer first, then the orcs in the town, and finally the nobles.

The worry of the pigeon breeder in Saltpeter Town was not unreasonable. He immediately ran to the local city lord's mansion to pass the news to the nobles.

The orcs in the City Lord's Mansion attached great importance to this, and decided to transfer back the lion soldiers from other places to strengthen their patrols in the city.

……

The pigeon breeder walked out of the city lord's mansion with sweaty palms and backs.

"Unscrupulous officials and businessmen don't open grain stores. Isn't it the life of lowly slaves to eat glutinous rice? Why don't you go to another town with me, I know where there is a place that provides white rice."

The pigeon breeder immediately looked over when he heard the market orc shouting.

"Are there no food shortages in other towns?" The pigeon breeder looked surprised.

Although he is a pigeon breeder, he doesn't use it often. Instead, he raises pigeons for nobles and gentlemen. He only knows that there is a small famine in the towns around Nitpeter Town, and there is nowhere to supply food, and the farmers' farmland has also drastically reduced production.

At the same time as the production reduction, the tax has definitely been reduced, but only a little bit. After paying the tax, there is really not much leftover grain for the family, and life is tight.

"There is no shortage of grain in other towns, and even a bumper harvest. The output is at least twice that of here. Those grain merchants in Nitpe Town are all deceitful. They are not willing to go to other places to buy grain and make everyone starve." This orc who is good at gossip There are two lion ears on his head, and he is also a member of the lion clan, which makes the pigeon breeder feel a little bit at ease.

I heard that the main tribe in Mingri Town is the cat-eared orc. Since the other party is a lion, it should be credible. After all, everyone is of the same tribe.

"Brother, I think you are not too young. There should be some old people in your family and some young ones. Don't you have the heart to watch them starve? Why don't you go with me? The day after tomorrow, a boat will be parked on the outskirts of Saltpeter Town. , you can go there by boat to buy food, or settle down directly.”

The lion man grasped the callused hands of the pigeon breeder, and spoke every word from his heart, allowing the pigeon breeder to enjoy the feeling of being valued and understood.

"It's just that I'm afraid of the city lord's mansion..." The pigeon breeder couldn't confirm whether the other towns had a good harvest for a while, he was hesitating in his heart.

Just now he went to the city lord's mansion to send news, the people in the city lord's mansion paid attention to it, but they didn't give him money, they only praised him verbally, and they didn't treat the hungry people as human beings at all.

Originally, the original intention of the pigeon breeder was to go to the city lord's mansion to ask for some rice and grain, but now he was a little moved, but he couldn't make up his mind for a while.

It is risky to drag your family away from Saltpeter Town. Recently, the City Lord's Mansion has decided to increase its troops. I always feel that I will be arrested if I leave the city at this time.

"Don't worry, we can persuade more poor people to join our team. When the time comes, everyone will rush to the city gate together, and the guards will not dare to stop them."

"But but..."

"Don't worry about it, big brother. I know a few strong men with quick hands. They don't have any food in their homes. They eat mush every day, and they are so bitter that they want to vomit. With their help, a few The guards are nothing at all."

The pigeon breeder was moved, "But..." He also wanted to go, but he went to the city lord's mansion to deliver news, and then came out to run away with others, which is too dishonest for a person.

"Just tell me if you have any difficulties. Brother, I will help you find a solution. To tell you the truth, there are not many opportunities to get on the boat. If it weren't for your difficulties and lack of food, I would not help you." The line of Tomorrow Town People suddenly became a little anxious, if you have something to say, just say it, why do you have to hold back.

The pigeon breeder gritted his teeth, and with a heartbroken heart, he told about the movement of the city lord's mansion.

The lion boy's eyes lit up when he heard the words, this is good news, the puller has [-] copper coins, and if he sells important news to the cat-eared orc, he can get another [-] copper coins or a silver dragon.

"Your news is very important. I'll see if I can find more hungry men." The little lion turned around and ran away, making the pigeon breeder stare and stepping to keep up.

"Hey, how can I contact you?" The pigeon breeder hastily grabbed the hem of his clothes. If he didn't say this, how could he bring the whole family out of the sea of ​​suffering.

Those sticky rice have the charm of being cooked once a month, but the bitterness can be heavy or light, some are lightly bitter, some are bitter, so bitter that you can spit out the things in your intestines.

Some can get stuck in the throat, making people have a bitter taste all day long, which is particularly uncomfortable, and children generally can't stand that stuff.

"The day after tomorrow, pack up your luggage and wait at home. I'll send someone to pick you up. Don't run around in the early morning of that day, just wait for the news." The little lion slipped away without looking back, and hurried back to receive the reward.

……

at the same time.

The autumn harvest in Tomorrow Town has also been completed. This time, the grain harvest has been bumper, and the output has tripled compared to the previous year.

"Lord Alan, this year's grain harvest is bumper. The original plan could only feed more than 2000 people, but now the grain produced by ourselves can feed 8000 people for half a year." Hood looked at the newly built granary, his mouth and eyes were full of smiles, Laughing from ear to ear.

"What's the matter? We need to expand the planting area, select high-quality rice seeds, and develop hybrid rice. It is not a dream to double the output in the next year. The audit department should record the high-yield rice fields." Allen said at the end, turning his eyes Look at another cat-eared orc.

"I remember it, which field has the highest yield and which lodging resistance effect is the greatest. I have written it down." The head of the audit department hastily turned the page and passed the recorded text to Alan.

"Master Alan, why do you memorize these things?" Hood's tail stood up like a question mark, and he didn't understand it for a while.

Windsor next to him gave Hood a white look, and said sarcastically, "You are still a priest, don't you study biology seriously in class, Gene!"

"Uh..." Hood shrank his neck. After Windsor mentioned it, he remembered the genetics content of his biology textbook.
