The resident population and floating population of Lugnica's royal capital are less than one million. This is already one of the few super cities in the world, but a city with a million people is a "small town"?What kind of 'small town' is this! ?

Chapter 548 Untitled

To complain, Kuerxiu and others were looking forward to it at the beginning. After all, Nangong Xiao himself is a strong man, and his subordinates are also super strong men beyond imagination. In theory, they will not open such meaningless joke.

But gradually, Kuerxiu and the others couldn't help becoming suspicious, feeling that Nangong Xiao was playing tricks on them.

It's all because Nangong Xiao hid in Duke Karsten's mansion after completing the city construction plan, and began to fiddle with the seeds of various crops that are common in the Kingdom of Lugnica day and night, and even let Kur Xiu bought him some common poultry and livestock, butchered them for bloodletting and so on, but they were not used for eating, but were inexplicably manipulated among a large number of utensils that outsiders could not understand, very much like the ones in the storybooks. Evil wizard debugging poison.

This situation has been maintained for several days, during which Reinhardt also came, and even a person like Reinhardt, who can get any protection he wants, can't understand what Nangong Xiao is doing at all. But seeing Nangong Xiao so intoxicated, the intuitive protection told Reinhardt that he was not doing something evil, so he let it go, but he would come over every one or two days to take a look at it for peace of mind.

Yes, even Reinhardt looked a little unconfident.

It’s not that Crusch and Reinhardt haven’t asked Nangong Xiao. Unfortunately, they didn’t understand most of what Nangong Xiao said, and they seemed extremely uneducated passively. Very shy, so I can only give up trying to understand what this person is doing.

It wasn't until the ninth day that Crusch couldn't bear it any longer, because all the procedures that needed to be done were gone through, and the manpower that needed to be prepared was also prepared, so it was almost time to straighten out the slums.

Now the Council of Sages has also secretly asked when Crusch will start to clean up the slums, so Crusch can only excuse it by saying that he is mobilizing food and manpower.

Although this is a reasonable argument, it is only reasonable for a short period of time. If there is no movement, then there will definitely be criticisms from the Council of Sages, and it will also affect Crusch's credit and reputation in the Council of Sages. , which Crusch did not want to see.

Even now that Felier Lugnica is 'resurrected', Crusch has not given up his plan to ascend the throne and realize his ideal.

After all, this 'Flier' is not her Flier, even if it is completely consistent in appearance, character, words and deeds, Crusch can't regard it as her Flier.

Fourier's last words, she must seize any ray of hope to realize them.

Therefore, Crusch had no choice but to find him himself, and decided to ask someone to start the plan that was gradually becoming absurd as soon as possible.

In the guest room where Nangong Xiao lived, Crusch glanced at the guest room like a 'garbage dump' with a complicated expression, and said directly.

"Your Excellency Nangong, today is already the ninth day. How long will it take for your matter?"

When Nangong Xiao in the 'garbage dump' heard Crusch's question, she also put down the beaker and microscopic analysis magic tool in her hand, and showed a dazed expression, as if she just remembered something important. Doing the same thing made Crusch, who was so well-bred, couldn't help but blush.

This is the result of wanting to yell, but holding back.

Nangong Xiao calmly put a lot of scientific research equipment mixed with magic science, as well as research results, and even the big white hanging on his body into the space ring, basically turning the guest room into a space in a blink of an eye normal.

Then he said, "The genetic sequencing of animals and plants in this world is very interesting, and I almost forgot about the business. Well, everything must be ready, right?"

"...Yes, yes. Everything is ready, and it is up to Your Excellency Nangong to fulfill his promise." Crusch tried to calm himself down as much as possible.

After all, swearing or something is not right, and it is also very rude.

"Before that, let me confirm that the ownership of the gravel mountain already belongs to us legally and in essence? Is there a document contract?"

"Yes, I signed a formal contract under the witness of several famous nobles. The gravel mountain land with an area of ​​about 15 square kilometers already belongs to my personal property, and I have also received preferential treatment of [-] years of tax exemption."

"Very well, let your people prepare, and you don't need to bring anything, just follow along. By the way, you'd better prepare some publicity staff."

"Propaganda staff?" Crusch was puzzled.

"Let everyone know that you obtained that piece of land through normal channels, and it can stand the test of morality and legal principles. This is to prevent the sage from taking back the right to use the land with an excuse."

Crusch frowned, but she could understand that if that piece of 'wasteland' that no one wanted suddenly became valuable, it would certainly attract prying eyes from all directions. If it is untenable, it is really possible that the Sage Council or some royal nobles will take advantage of the loopholes, which will lead to many unnecessary troubles, and even risk being taken away.

The Karsten family has great prestige in Lugnica, but it can't stand the greed of some disqualified nobles.

Although I don't want to admit it, the nobles of the Kingdom of Lugnica have fallen, just as this one said earlier.

And in this case, it is morally and legally tenable, and it is known to the world, and it can really curb those greedy people's smugness on the surface. After all, although the nobles are greedy, most of them care about it very much. Face, things that are too explicit, are usually not done.

Although it is only to curb the troubles on the surface, it is enough.

But, can that broken place really become valuable?

Crusch really began to doubt, but things have come to this point, she had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue.

"Your Excellency Nangong, I know what to do, so when shall we set off?"

"Call Reinhardt with great fanfare, and tomorrow morning, together with the manpower you have prepared, we will head to the gravel mountain together."

Hearing what Nangong Xiao said, Crusch couldn't help but his face changed slightly, "Your Excellency Nangong, you're dragging Your Excellency Reinhardt into the water like this...it seems..."

Nangong Xiao nodded appreciatively, "It's good to have a bottom line. But don't worry, Reinhardt will definitely be more active than you."

While speaking, Nangong Xiao took out a [-]ml airtight transparent glass jar from the interspatial ring and handed it to Crusch.

Crusch took it over and took a look, but saw that the glass jar was full of plant seeds. She had no idea about it, and she didn't recognize what kind of seeds it was. She looked at Nangong Xiao very puzzled, "This is... .”

Chapter 549 Concubine...hometown...involved...

"This is one of the common staple food seeds in the Kingdom of Lugnica. The kind you have in your hand is what you call 'winter wheat' seeds, which are the main raw material seeds for bread. It's impossible for someone from a family like yours to recognize them all at once. It's normal, but you should understand the importance of food, right?"

Nangong Xiao's special explanation made Crusch's eyes flash with embarrassment, but he nodded and said, "Food can be said to be the root of everything, and I know this very well."

"Very good." Nangong Xiao nodded and continued, "I don't need to describe the importance of food. To put it bluntly, the can of seeds in your hand is wheat with a special genetic order, winter wheat seeds, which are mine these days. Research results, let me put it this way, the growth cycle of these seeds modified by me under normal conditions is four times shorter than that of similar seeds in your world, and the yield per mu is eight times the original, as long as it is not extreme weather and Due to human destruction, it is normal to harvest all year round, and the planting requirements have become extremely low, even if the land is worse than the gravel land, it still does not affect the growth rate and yield."

"?!"

Although Crusch's knowledge of agricultural products has certain limitations due to her status, she still knows the importance of food and some common sense things.

For example, this kind of staple food can only be harvested once a year, and the production depends entirely on the sky except intensive cultivation.

The Kingdom of Lugnica is located in a temperate area, and the mass production is still sufficient. As long as there are no irresistible natural disasters and man-made disasters, the probability of famine among civilians is relatively low, but it does not mean that there is sufficient food, it can only be said to be okay can live.

As for why the emphasis on 'civilians'?

it goes without saying.

Besides, if the nobles who own a lot of fertile land suffer from famine, then the country will really be completely hopeless.

And this is only the case of the Kingdom of Lugnica, or the countries in the temperate zone on the mainland. Those countries in the northern desert zone basically have no shortage of food.

Every year, the nobles of Lugnica go to the northern countries to sell grain, which is the most profitable industry. Even the craziest seems to have sold too much grain, which led to insufficient food reserves in the Kingdom of Lugnica, and almost caused a famine for a time. Ridiculous things.

In the end, they had to buy grain from other southern countries at high prices to get through the predicament. For this reason, the late king was furious, and deprived several nobles who participated in the grain sales of their titles, and even wanted to convict them of felonies.

In the end, if it wasn't for the great nobles in the kingdom to form a group and put pressure on the former king in the name of 'dragon', maybe things would not have ended so easily.

This is also the biggest rift between the nobles of the kingdom and the Lugnica royal family in the past ten years.

This may even be the reason for the extermination of the Lugnica royal family!

Of course, nothing is anything without evidence.But it does not prevent this argument from being circulated in the circle of Wang Tong faction supporters in private.

Generally speaking, Crusch is very clear that food is the lifeblood of a country, and it is the foundation. Whoever controls the food is equivalent to indirectly or even directly controlling the life and death of a country.

Similarly, food also represents wealth and power. As long as there is enough food on hand, she, Crusch, will have the capital to move the world!

And now the other party actually told her that this kind of staple food can be harvested four times a year? !The yield per mu is eight times the original? !

It is too unbelievable.

Of course, Crusch was very reluctant to doubt, she very much hoped it was true.

Trying to calm down his emotions, Crusch asked dryly, "Your Excellency Nangong...Are you kidding me?"

"I don't have such a bad habit." Nangong Xiao said in a low voice, "Besides, I will do it myself. It won't take long to prove the yield of this staple food seed. I can even give you an answer tomorrow."

"Phew...if that's the case...my lord, I'm really afraid that our Karsten family won't be able to handle it." With a soft breath, Crusch believed it. She was willing to believe it, and because of her belief, she His expression also became more dignified, "Your Excellency Reinhardt must indeed be brought in, and even His Excellency Reinhardt is not enough..."

"That's enough, we need to give those nobles of the royal capital a chance to be dirty, right?"

"?!"

"How good a person is depends not only on his own ability and positive performance, but also on the background of outsiders. I asked you to prepare propagandists, not to tell the public how good you are, but to tell the public secretly that a certain How bad are these pests.

No comparison, no harm.

You not only need the prestige in the noble circle, but also the prestige among the common people.

Of course, don't do rumors unless you have to, I don't think you can do it, right? "

"...Your Excellency Nangong, please accept my highest thanks!"

Crusch bowed to Nan Gongxiao sincerely, and at this moment she understood that the person in front of her was actually helping her to accumulate prestige, in other words, supporting her to fight for the throne.

However, after saluting and thanking her, Crusch was a little puzzled, why did he support her?

"Is it strange?"

As if he had been seen through, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Crusch's eyes who had just raised his head, but he also asked generously, "Yes, Your Excellency Nangong, clearly your identity..."

"I shouldn't have said that, right? I am now the emperor of an empire that spans the world. Well, a small country like Lugnica is just a small county to my Great Qin Empire, and it's not worth my self-deprecation to seek it." .”

"?!"

"By the way, there are quite a few strong people like Maiev in our Great Qin Empire, and there are also people who are many times stronger than Maiev."

"...Your Excellency Nangong, this is really..." Crusch didn't know what to say.

She didn't think the other party was lying to her, because only in this way could she reasonably explain why the other party didn't care about the throne, and even had the idea of ​​helping her ascend to that position.

only...

"That's probably how it is. The Kingdom of Lugnica is really worthless to me. It's just because one of my concubines is involved and I have to do something. After all, the Kingdom of Lugnica is my kingdom. The concubine's hometown is not easy to make too much noise."

The imperial concubine...hometown...is involved...

Gradually, Crusch's cheeks became more rosy.

"That... Your Excellency Nangong... Does this look..."

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe it. Seeing is believing. When the time comes, you will know." Nangong Xiao didn't wait for Kuerxiu to finish speaking, and said, "In short, this new type of wheat is just one of them. There are still good things to come." Several kinds of crop seeds in this world have been transformed by me into high-yield crops with short cycle time, high yield, and easy seeds, not to mention the higher-quality agricultural product seeds of my Great Qin Empire. If there is no accident, it will take less than a month. Being able to dominate the country’s food trade, and at the same time, this is also the basis for accepting refugees and the poor, and it is also the trump card for the development of the new city, I think, you should understand what will happen next, right? Do you also understand what to do?"

Although the topic that made her shy suddenly ended, Crusch is not a little girl who likes to be twitchy, so he quickly adjusted his mood and replied very seriously, "Your Excellency Nangong, I understand what to do gone."

"very good."

Chapter 550 Rem 'Learned Badly'

In the early morning of the next day, according to Nan Gongxiao's statement, Crusch went to 'pick up' Reinhardt openly, and took a convoy of 300 people with great fanfare to the southwest of Lugnica's capital for more than ten kilometers. Depart from the gravel mountain outside.

The commoners in the royal capital don't care much about this. After all, this kind of caravan travel by aristocrats is nothing new, and it's not their turn to care.However, in the circle of nobles in the royal capital, there was a huge storm in an instant, especially the secret agents who were stationed in the royal capital of Lugnica by the candidates for the throne, were more or less shocked. ', and urgently passed one of the messages back.

This message is - the 'Juvenile Master', who has always been neutral, seems to have made a choice!

What do the nobles of the royal capital and the candidates for the throne think, let alone Reinhardt, who was a little confused by Crusch's operation at first, and even showed a helpless look, but after getting Knowing that this is Nangong Xiao's order and the existence of those high-yielding grain seeds, he is really more active than others.

For Reinhardt, he will definitely try his best to promote such things that benefit the country and the people. For this reason, it doesn't matter even if his reputation is used by others.

Of course, Reinhardt didn't feel that he was being used, after all, this was His Highness's order.

Not to mention, as long as he, Reinhardt, didn't express his opinion in person, everything would be false.

However, what Reinhardt and even Nangong Xiao didn't know was that those owners of "prophetic" books such as "Gospel" and "Book of Wisdom" were shocked at this moment. Or the rest of the forces are facing their own "prophecy book" in a daze at this moment, because since last night, only the "past" that has happened, and the information of the "future" that originally existed have disappeared rapidly. After this morning, it all disappeared completely.

In other words, the future of this world has become unpredictable?

This answer made many people who relied on the 'prophecy book' almost collapse, and at the same time, they also became confused.Similarly, some people began to think of ways to find the origin of the matter, whether it was to regain the ability of 'prophecy', or to get to the bottom of it, for some people, they couldn't just leave it alone.

Among them, Roswaal L. Mezzas had the most violent reaction.

Rem, who was serving Emilia, Beatrice, Roswaal and others for breakfast in the dining room of Roswaal's border mansion, was keenly aware that there was something wrong with the way Roswaal looked at her today.

Not only Rem noticed it, but Ram, Beatrice, and the great elf Parker also noticed it, that is, the simple-minded Emilia was still enjoying her breakfast happily, frowning occasionally, just Because of some academic problems.After all, she didn't choose to participate in the king's election with her eyes closed. She also needs to learn some necessary knowledge of governing the country, noble etiquette, etc., so she often worries about these knowledge.

Except for Emilia, everyone else felt that the atmosphere had become a little depressing at this moment.

Rem didn't know why Roswaal suddenly looked at her like this. After all, it wasn't the first day she came back. It was almost ten days. Roswaal style.

Just when Rem was considering whether to say something, Roswaal suddenly turned his attention to Beatrice who was playing with Parker, and said.

"Lord Beatrice, aren't you curious?"

"Isn't there something wrong with the 'book'? My 'book' has always been blank, so it has nothing to do with me." Beatrice didn't even look at Roswaal, but when she spoke, she didn't Consciously glanced at Rem.

After all, the "singularity" or something, needless to say, is Rem who disappeared suddenly, came back suddenly, and became extremely powerful.

"Oh, that's what Master Beatrice said, but, I always feel that things are not that simple."

Roswaal said in a weird tone, just like a clown, and Beatrice raised her eyebrows when she heard it.

"Roswaal, if you have something to do, you should find the right owner, and don't do this to me."

While Beatrice was saying this, she looked directly at Rem, who was dressed in a maid outfit. She had no choice but to be quite curious. Although she was about to give up on that 'Book of Wisdom', even so, it was still possible. There is still a tinge of luck.

At this time, Parker also put away his playfulness and squinted his eyes at Rem.

Of course, Roswaal also looked over.
