Release that Witch Chapter 570: Reason for Edith
This question is, in a sense, unsolvable.
The reason is that after Months of Demons, the total amount of food is limited, the food flowing in the kingdom will enter a state of scarcity, not to mention the price soaring, and it may not be available. Until the wheat field is harvested, the lack of food situation will alleviate. Autumn is the season with the most frequent food transactions, and it will rise rapidly when Months of Demons is reached.
Of course, these transactions are generally for merchants and noble. As for the penniless refugees and Mouse, even if there is more wheat, they can only enter the cold winter with hungry stomachs.
According to Barov ’s many years of experience as a financial Assistant Minister, major cities are waiting for wheat ears to mature at this time. It is unlikely that a large number of grains will be sold. The gap of thousands of people may still be filled. Nope.
Open source does n’t work.
Cut the city ’s food supply, reduce the daily purchases, make citizen change from eating bread to drinking wheat porridge, and stick to the day of harvest. This is also the most likely opinion of Edith.
Then he can promise the food from the Your Majesty's, the facts are contrary to the propaganda, the food shortage panic and other aspects one by one refutes the inadequacies of this approach.
Looking at the look of Edith raising the eyebrows and flipping through the list, I know that this trouble is not easy to solve.
It won't be long before she asks herself what to do.
Thinking of this, Barov can't help but touch his beard. The so-called master of the whole situation is not only skilled and sophisticated in government affairs, but also clear about the characteristics of the city. For example, in Kingdom Capital, he could memorize the price of special products of Alchemy Association and the quantity of silver ore shipped by Silver Light City every month without thinking, these are not memorable in a short time.
The characteristic of Neverwinter City is witch.
Barov knows that there is a green-haired woman named Leaf in Witch Union, which can make the wheat field grow at an incredible speed. When the land is not taken care of, she can even make the wheat ripe once a day, and the ears of wheat are not Golden No. 1 Comparable.
In other words, as long as you ask her to manage a wheat field and focus on rapid food production, she can make up for the current gap.
Of course, he also knows that Your Majesty is letting Leaf control the western Hidden Forest to build an early warning defense line against Devil. However, given that this kind of enemy is still several years away, it is not anxious to stop for two or three months.
This is the part that Edith has absolutely no way of knowing.
Even if she has more talents, adulthood has been involved in managing northern region affairs. After impossible arrived at Neverwinter City for half a month, she knew all about this completely strange city, not to mention the ability to understand each witch.
She won't even understand why Ministry of Education's office is connected to the archives, and Minister of Education often appears in it, and has the right to view all documents.
After a while, Edith put down the list and raised his lips slightly.
"This trouble is not difficult to solve."
"Yeah ..." Barov first nodded, and then hesitated, "What?"
"Before the development of Quiet Valley Town, most of the land of northern region was not suitable for planting wheat, so as soon as spring, the grain will be particularly tight, so the local feudal lord set its sights on eastern region and Kingdom of Dawn."
"What do you mean" he suddenly realized something.
"Since you ca n’t buy or buy it, you can only grab someone else." Edith said easily, "Isn't this situation right now? The Your Majesty's army is attacking Fallen Dragon Ridge. I heard that the brother of Speer Earl was in order Rebelling against her, attracted a lot of local noble, right? Now there are all the reasons and means, kill them one by one. You guess how much gold royal and food will be hidden in their basement?
"The lack of food is only allowed to leave the remaining grain. In fact, most of the food produced by the Kingdom is divided up by noble. They can use this part of the food to control the freemen and farmers in the territory, and they can also fail in harvest. Earn a large amount of gold royal during the year. "Her speech was unpleasant, but her voice was chilling in Barov's ears." If I turn Fallen Dragon Ridge over, I think the food of tens of thousands of people is not a problem. If it is not enough, the southeast region There are also several cities waiting for Your Majesty to claim. "
"They are all noble ..." When they said half of Prime Minister, they closed their mouths, yes ... after Your Majesty occupied southern region, they were no longer. As long as the start is good enough, these seizures are enough to make Neverwinter City refill the granary.
Different from Kingdom Capital, Fallen Dragon Ridge is a thorough fall to Your Majesty's cities, and it is also a key way to southern region. At that time, City Hall will not only directly send people to assist Speer Earl to build a new government, but also the law, planning, and education of Neverwinter City will be copied in the city. Therefore, removing all of the noble will be beneficial to the stability of the city.
What puzzles Barov is why can Edith accept decree that deletes the noble class so quickly? Even if he himself, even if he wholeheartedly supports the Your Majesty's command, it is not so fast to adapt ... and she was the successor of northern region Duke.
*******************
Back at the diplomatic building, Edith pushed open the door and saw Kohl lying at the table flipping a thin book.
"What is that?"
"Uh ... I bought it from the convenience market, like a picture scroll, but it also has a story, and it's interesting to read," my younger brother raised head, "Do you look happy?"
"Are you there?"
"In Eternal Night City, it's rare that you have laughed this way," Kohl said, "Are we really not going back?"
"For the time being, when your father writes back, Your Majesty should allow you to return to northern region." Edith sat opposite him and reached out to pick up the cover, only to see the words "Witch Diaries" printed on it.
"What about you?"
"I want to stay here."
"Why," Kohl said, "City Hall is so interesting?"
"Not City Hall is interesting, but Roland Wimbledon's City Hall is interesting," she corrected with a chuckle, "Do you know how I can do one thing in Eternal Night City?"
"Say then it will be alright to your father."
"Almost, ordered, there will naturally be many people to do it. Now I want to come, this has nothing to do with me, only because of my identity, and my father will obey my advice ... Of course, only at the Kant family fief. "Edith said with great interest," But here, my identity not only does not work, it even hinders it. There is almost no noble in City Hall. They don't care if I am the daughter of northern region Duke. Everyone is relying on Ability to do things, do you understand what I mean? "
Kohl shook his head.
"Everyone is willing to listen to you, not in your identity, but in your own ability. It is still valid even if it is out of fief. Your Majesty is a bit right. The encapsulation seems to have great power, but it is also limited to noble. The upper limit that can be reached. For now, he is fully capable of expanding the territory to the entire continent, City Hall will also become a behemoth, and the area under its jurisdiction will extend to every corner of Greycastle. Once you have been recognized, in a word Now, even the whole kingdom will work for you. You said, why should I stay in that little fief? "
