At the same time, the Kadir family.

Patriarch Frank's study, originally in Frank's position, at this moment a figure shrouded in black fog sat there, Charles and Morton stood in front with low eyebrows, that humble attitude was even more humble than when facing Frank.

"I wonder what the messenger commands?"

"Where's Frank?"

A man's hoarse voice came from under the black mist, a while ago the Glorious Festival, the entire Alinks was covered by divine magic, and their people had to leave here temporarily, so it was not clear where Frank was now.

"Father, he went to cultivate, and he has been coughing and vomiting blood a while ago......"

Speaking of this, Charles quietly glanced at the person in the black mist, but could not see his face, Charles lowered his head a little disappointed, and continued: "Father said that during this period, the messenger can contact me if he needs anything, and I can make full decisions. ”

"That's right...... It seems that Frank has groped for the point......"

There was a strange laugh from the black mist, and after a moment, he said to Charles, "In that case, then this matter will be left to you." ”

"Please command."

"Gather all the elites of your family and head to the Helldrum Mine."

"Huh?"

Charles was stunned: "The Helltrom mine has been sold to that Donn before-"

"I know, but ......"

Black Mist suddenly got up. "Helldrum is no longer a mine, and now, it has become a gate...... A gateway to another world......"

"The gate?"

"Yes. There the door to the underworld opens. ”

"The Underworld!?"

Charles was taken aback: "Since the Second Chaos Invasion War, the passages to the underground world have all been blocked!" ”

"So, this is providential......"

The man of the black mist muttered, "Chief, he must still be waiting for our arrival...... After a hundred years of dormancy, we will surely meet a brilliant future under your leadership! ”

"What did you say?"

"Don't ask so much, just do what I tell you!"

The black mist man said coldly: "Gather those elites and be fully armed." This time, there is bound to be a big war! ”

Charles felt a chill in his heart: "Yes! ”

"Yes, for your sake. Give you the strength you've been waiting for. ”

Charles appeared in ecstasy, and the next moment, the black mist man suddenly appeared in front of Charles, splitting black tentacles from his body. Lift Charlestowe up. Then a few tentacles drilled directly into Charles's eyes, ears, mouth and nose, and the ecstatic Charles smiled wildly and accepted the power from the black tentacles, his body quickly expanded in a circle, and the bulging blood vessels gradually blackened, and soon his eyes became black......

"Whew...... Strength...... That's what it feels like to be empowered......"

After Charles landed, he clenched his fist, and the explosive power surged in his arm, and a black light flashed in his eyes. The pupils returned to normal, and the black blood vessels in the arms returned to their normal color.

He gave a casual glance at Moulton. Morton actually had a strange and chilling feeling.

The corner of Charles's mouth raised a contemptuous smile, and he touched the wall lightly, and with a loud "boom", the entire wall turned into flying ashes, and a maid who had just passed by outside was stunned when she saw the figure covered in black fog in the study.

"Monsters, monsters......"

The black mist man said casually: "Clean her up, don't leak the news." ”

"No problem!"

Charles had just gained the strength and was about to try it, when he stretched out his hand with a cruel smile, the black fog gathered into a hideous python and entangled the maid, just a slight pinch, the maid was sucked dry by the python and turned into a pile of dry bones.

"Shhhh

Charles felt a strange flush on his face as he felt the surging vitality of the serpent, and he was fascinated by the indescribable pleasure, and now he finally understood why his father had killed several people every once in a while since he had been blessed.

Moulton, who has never had the opportunity to show himself, looked at his brother with envy and fear, he finally got the power he dreamed of, so next, it's his turn, right?

But......

Like his father Frank, Morton felt an indescribable strangeness from Charles.

Is it really what you want to gain this kind of power and become like this?

"Molton, don't envy your brother," the Black Mist Man said to Molton, "behave well and offer your loyalty to the great Lord of Darkness, and you will be blessed in the same way, and your family's dedication will make you the right hand of the Lord of Darkness." ”

"Yes! I'll try! ”

Morton hurriedly lowered his head, except for a layer of cold sweat on his head.

Damn it! What are you thinking?

Strength! All it takes is strength!

My father and brother have been blessed, and I have to keep up!

Ellington.

"So, that's why you want me to work all-nighters!?"

Angry, Grantia almost couldn't restrain herself from jumping up and biting Donn: "You're crazy, aren't you!?" 100,000 people! March Food! It's impossible for me to ripen in such a short time! You might as well kill me! ”

"Wrong, not 100,000."

Tang En corrected: "It's 100,000 dwarves, and the underground dwarves are also dwarves, how much food is there...... Refer to Brian. ”

"Uh, there's no point in referencing me, right?"

Brian scratched his head, and his old face flushed when he was looked at by a circle of people: "My meal is relatively large among the dwarves." ”

"Then calculate the discount, Brian, you can eat fifteen silver coins a day. And they counted it at ten pieces of silver. ”

Fiona said crisply: "A dwarf's daily meal is calculated as ten silver coins, and if you ignore exchange rate fluctuations, 100,000 people a day is 10,000 gold coins." Three months and ninety days is grain worth nine hundred thousand gold coins. ”

"It doesn't seem like much."

Maojiro Vanilla said a little curiously: "I made 20 million gold coins from the previous auction of patents, this gold coin is nothing, right?" ”

Fiona and Don looked at each other and smiled helplessly: "Vanilla, you may have misunderstood something...... Having money and having food are two different things. ”

Vanilla looked dazed: "What do you mean?" ”

Although she is a cat-eared girl, the cat-eared lady with tendons and meat is really cute, Tang En shook his head. Throwing some bad thoughts out, he explained, "Although 900,000 gold coins are nothing to Ellington now. But if you change it to food, it's terrible, and even if you have money, you can't buy it. ”

Fiona flipped through her notebook and said, "Ellington had a rare harvest this year, harvesting 1,130 tons of wheat. In addition, I have been buying food outside. And recently Grandia has been rapidly maturing grain, and our total grain reserves have only just exceeded 3,000 tons. ”

"Only 3,000 tons?"

Before Vanilla could speak, Tang En was stunned for a moment: "What is this food enough for?" ”

In his previous life, the figures of hundreds of millions and hundreds of millions made Don numb, and it was a little awkward to suddenly hear such a small amount of grain.

"My lord, ......"

Fiona was helpless: "It's already a lot, okay!" With 3,000 tons of grain reserves, at least 10,000 people can eat for half a year, do you know how many towns and cities are still unable to guarantee food for the winter? We were able to double our food reserves in a short period of time, thanks to which Grantia! ”

Grandia immediately looked up triumphantly.

"Okay......"

Once again, Don realized the importance of agriculture. If there is no reserve of emergency food reserves for three to five years, it is impossible to make people feel at ease, right?

Or rather. Is this the sequelae of his coming from an agrarian civilization?

"The original plan was that 3,000 tons of grain was enough to survive the winter, but I didn't expect a large influx of outsiders recently, so the grain reserves are still stretched, and the reserves of all kinds of vegetables and poultry meat are also very anxious......

Speaking of this, Fiona noticed the dazed expressions of a circle of people, she was suddenly stunned, and said with a dry smile: "Sorry I digressed, back to the topic, 3000 tons is three million kilograms, converted into imperial units, the current price of grain is about 0.8 kilograms per silver coin, that is to say, it is worth about 3.75 million silver coins, and the exchange rate of gold and silver coins has been almost stable at 1:98 recently, so it is about 38,300 gold coins." ”

After saying that, Fiona looked at Vanilla, "Now you understand what a serious problem we are facing, right?" ”

"Huh?"

Vanilla was still confused.

Tang En smiled bitterly and spread his hands, and said, "In other words, if we roughly calculate, we need to raise twenty-four times our existing grain reserves in the shortest possible time to meet that Barod's request." ”

Fiona added: "And in addition to this, we need to prepare at least 3,000 tons of food for our own use in order to survive the winter for ourselves." It should be noted that in addition to the 1,100 tons of wheat harvested before, we have purchased the remaining 1,700 tons for more than two months, and there are still 200 tons of grain that Grantia has worked hard to ripen in the past half a month. ”

"So now here's the problem."

Don clapped his hands, attracting everyone's attention: "What can we do now to gather seventy-one thousand tons of grain, worth nine hundred thousand gold coins, in the shortest possible time, preferably in a week?" ”

"I can't help it......"

"Unless you go to the towns and sweep the grain markets one by one......"

"But that will inevitably lead to a crazy rise in food prices, then panic buying, then panic among the people, and maybe a war......"

"Brian, how much grain can Durandon sell there?"

"Sell? Big brother, don't be kidding," Brian pouted, "and he asked me the other day if I could buy some food from you!" ”

At the end of the discussion, a circle of people looked at Grandia in unison.

Don tilted his head and muttered to Fiona, "The only way......

Fiona nodded, "yes, that's the only way......"

Grantia's ruddy little face turned pale for a moment, and in her eyes, Don and Fiona seemed to be demons with green eyes, and she shook her head vigorously: "Impossible! That's impossible! Don't push me, if you push me, I'll - ahh!!hh ”

Seeing Don get up suddenly, Grant Ardon exploded and screamed miserably, startling a circle of people!

"Don't get excited, don't get excited...... Actually, it's you who want to be crooked......"
