Chapter 1708: The situation won’t be so narrow? (2 more, please customize)

The snow slowly melted, and the snow water began to seep into the land little by little, nourishing the entire land.

Some impatient plants began to sprout out of the ground, while others were more tenacious, breaking through the thick snow and sprouting yellow-green bud tips.

It looks particularly abrupt in a large white snow scene, but this touch of green also represents life.

Bella was standing by the study window looking outside and said,"Did you see it? There is green again."

Ryan nodded and said,"Yes, Your Majesty, this means that spring is here and we can start a new journey. Bella turned her head and walked back to sit down, and asked,"How is the situation in Silver Light City now?""

"Back to Your Majesty, everything is fine. That person is working in an orderly manner. Although the damn snow is in the way, it will be cleared soon."Reported by Ruianhui

"Well, we must finish it quickly to truly welcome spring."Bella nodded and said

"Understood, Your Majesty, Chang'an City has replied. You can take a look." Ruian looked forward to it.

After all, he had sent a letter to Chang'an City before, for no other reason than to ask for some crop seeds.

Bella nodded, looked at the letter on the table and paused for a while before picking it up and opening it..

Ruian looked at the densely written letter curiously, and asked curiously,"Your Majesty, what do you say about Chang'an City? Bella shook her head, put down the letter and said,"Chang'an City said it would not sell seeds to outsiders, but if we need flowers, we can sell grain to us.""

"Why? Isn’t it more profitable to sell seeds than to sell grains? They don’t have to do the tedious work of planting until harvesting." Ruian said confused.

"Maybe it’s because you don’t want those crops to fall into the hands of others. After all, you also know the deliciousness of those crops."Bella guessed

"Your Majesty, what should we do? Do we still grow wheat?"Ryan said worriedly.

Bella shrugged and said helplessly,"What else? Is there anything else you can do? There are also wheat seeds which are pretty good. At best, we can grow more varieties and then buy other ready-made crops from the Han Dynasty."

"I see."Ryan nodded and said

"As long as we plant more wheat, we can live well in winter. After all, many cities don't have enough wheat. We can sell it at a high price and buy green vegetables from Chang'an City, and we can still live well."Bella analyzed.

Ryan swung his fox tail and said,"Your Majesty, if we plant in the spring, I will arrange for them to plant wheat."

"Well, let's arrange it like this. Wild vegetables can also be grown. If they are cooked well, they will also be a delicacy."Bella smiled.

"clear."Ryan nodded and said.

Bella looked at the cattle orcs aside and asked,"How are the knights doing recently? Spring is here and you know what that means"

"The subordinates understand."

Obi bowed slightly and stood up to report,"The knights have been in good condition recently. They didn't have to suffer from lack of food and clothing before. This winter they have kept their spirits up, and dealing with the enemy is not a problem at all. Bella nodded with satisfaction and said,"It couldn't be better. They are the key to our victory.""

"Your Majesty, don't worry, their morale is high now. If any enemy dares to come now, they will be defeated by us and flee."

"Spring is here, so we can improve our food. Ruian, how many gold coins do we have in our treasury? Bella asked.

Ryan quickly took out his account book, glanced at it, and said,"Your Majesty, we now have more than 80,000 gold coins.""

"Only more than 80,000 pieces? Is this the case for the entire Principality of Man'er?"Bella couldn't believe her ears

"Yes, Your Majesty, because when winter came, we bought a lot of food and winter supplies, such as clothes, medicines, etc. In addition, we also bought a lot of fresh vegetables, so it is good to have so much left." Ruianhui reported.

Bella frowned and asked,"What about the income from saltpeter? What about other income from the territory?"

"It's all here, because spending extra gold coins to survive the winter."Reported by Ruianhui

"I understand, the production of saltpeter will be greatly increased when spring begins. It can no longer be twice a month, but must be increased to four times a month. Now there are so many people without jobs in the entire Principality of Man'er. Let's recruit them to mine saltpeter.."Bella ordered

"Yes, Your Majesty."Ryan nodded.

Bella picked up a cup of hot tea and asked,"Are there any actions from the other two principalities? Now that spring has begun, I think they are ready to take action."

Obi saluted slightly and reported,"Your Majesty, the two principalities have not made any moves so far. Since returning from the Han Dynasty, there has been no splash. Bella nodded thoughtfully, took a sip of hot tea and said with a smile,"Is there nothing you can do after you hit a wall?""

"Fortunately, the Han Dynasty did not agree, otherwise our situation would be difficult."Obi said thankfully.

"Your Excellency Liu Feng will not get involved in this muddy water. After all, this is a thankless job. Bella smiled.

Obi looked confused and asked,"Your Majesty, what do you mean?" The other two principalities must have come up with very good negotiation conditions. Why did the Han Dynasty agree? I think it’s unlikely because of Miss Tisi. After all, the king of a country will not give up the opportunity to expand his territory because of the love between his children.

Bella raised her eyebrows slightly and asked with a half-smile,"Oh?" Do you know Mr. Liu Feng so well?"

"No, Your Majesty, I am just guessing. After all, the exaggeration of territory is very tempting."Obi shook his head and said

"I do think that Mr. Liu Feng's situation will not be so narrow. Although we don't spend much time together, he must be a good person, at least to Tisi, so he will not stand on the opposite side of us."Bella said firmly.

Obi scratched the back of his head, looking confused, and muttered,"Your Majesty, why can't I understand you more and more?"

"If you don't understand, that's right. Go and send people to keep an eye on the other two principalities

, and come back to get some information from me."Bella ordered

"yes."Obi immediately responded
