Chapter 865: Abundance

In the early spring, the cold wind is still raging in this heaven and earth.

"Your Excellency, please go this way! Oh, please be careful of the stones at your feet......"

Bishop Batista looked helplessly at the big businessman beside him, who had a lot of money, but now he was acting cautiously and unusually courteously.

The big businessman, whose surname was 'Orlov', rubbed his hands nervously, but his face was full of smiles.

When he looked at the farmland not far away, his eyes sparkled even more, which is why Bishop Batista, who came from the agricultural church, was not disgusted by the big businessman.

The head of the Orlov Chamber of Commerce threw aside his attendants and subordinates, and personally led Bishop Batista and other priests of the agricultural church to the edge of the farmland not far from the capital of the Duchy of Violet, and his approach did not surprise too many people, indicating that it was not the first time he had done such a thing.

The territory of the Duchy of Violet is not large, not even comparable to the slightly larger marquisates in countries such as the Kurkut Empire or the Kingdom of Kolo, which is only half the size of the Duchy of Eagle.

If the 'Miracle of Harvest' is performed here, it may benefit the entire principality."

"Your Excellency, ...... you see," the merchant looked at the rolling farmland in front of him, and then turned to the bishop and smiled crampedly, "How is it here?"

Bishop Batista was also looking at the farmland not far away, and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, "How do you make a ridge?"

"Hehe, you know, I'm a member of the business alliance, and I have to do something to make a contribution......"

The big businessman smiled proudly and said, "To tell you the truth, I just wanted to keep my position and make some contributions, but I didn't expect such an unexpected gain." The head maid was indeed a great good man, and she was willing to reveal the foundation of this kind of statehood to the public......"

In the end, he couldn't help but let out a sigh of emotion.

Even in the eyes of a merchant like him, the head maid was great enough, and this method of farming brought abundant harvests to the entire continent and filled the bellies of many people.

In terms of drought and flood control, this farming method has preserved a lot of food that can be called 'tinder' for them, and even indirectly saved many people's lives.

In fact, if it weren't for this, he wouldn't have gotten the chance to meet the Grand Duke of Violet again, and the Duchy of Violet wouldn't have gotten the 'miracle of harvest' this time.

"Your Excellency Orlov, the people here must be diligent enough. ”

After careful scrutiny by the priesthood of the Agrarian Church, Bishop Batista spoke with a word of praise.

He pointed to the farmland in front of him, and said with a smile on the corner of his mouth: "The soil is excellent and nutritious, and the farmland here seems to be well maintained, even if there is no natural disaster without us, there will definitely be a bumper harvest here this year." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the big fat man next to him grinned, his face full of pride.

"Bishop Batista, to tell you the truth, I have 'contracted' the land in front of you—perhaps you have not heard of it, even I had the privilege of speaking with the head maid. Speaking of this, the head of the Orlov Chamber of Commerce couldn't help but frown, "I contracted this farmland from their masters, and I let them work for me, but in addition to the taxes they have to pay, they also need to give me a commission, although it looks like I spend money to buy the grain from them, but in fact I also have to bear a part of the risk, if the output is not good, my harvest is not much, but I still need to pay them enough money." However, after I have contracted this land, whatever I want to do, they cannot object, I can use the technology I brought from the Principality of Sorrowful Wind here, and I can rent new farming tools to those farmers at a low price, so that we are 'win-win'!"

Bishop Batista was bewildered by the words of the principal, he was not a businessman, he was a priest of the agricultural church, at most he knew some farming knowledge and breeding knowledge related to agriculture, and it was difficult to understand what the big businessman was saying.

However, the big businessman did not seem to have deceived the peasants, otherwise he would not have dared to show off the matter in front of him.

"Oh, you're a smart man. Bishop Batista pondered for a moment, and gave a dry compliment.

"Actually, I'm just trying to get back my father's lost title......"

Although he said so, the way he looked at the farmland could not deceive others.

Bishop Batista looked at the big businessman and smiled stupidly, and his eyes were full of affection, and he felt that he should be considered a good man.

The Bishop sighed, the head of the Orlov Chamber of Commerce seemed to have a lot of stories, but it didn't have much to do with them.

"Your Excellency Orlov, you should know what it would take if the lady were to perform a 'good harvest', right?"

Finally got down to business!

The big businessman's face became serious, and he nodded in a deep voice: "Yes, I have already mentioned this matter to His Excellency the Grand Duke, is it to hold a prayer ceremony for ten days?"

"Yes. Bishop Batista nodded earnestly, "Then the miracle of the harvest will last for a year, during which the crops can be harvested three times a year, and each time it matures, it will be a good harvest, and the miracle can benefit the entire principality, but as the scope expands, the impact of the miracle will gradually decrease, and when it comes to the border area, there is probably only the power of one year left." Lord Orlov, are you sure you are going to perform a miracle here?"

Bishop Batista is making the final confirmations, and once the big businessman nods, then he will begin to prepare everything for the prayer ceremony.

The big merchant took a deep breath and slowly closed his eyes.

Finally came to this point, he worked hard and worked hard all year long, for today!

"Yes!" Yuri Orlov said angrily, "I'm sure!"

After today, he will regain the glory of his family!

Even though he was only in this small principality, after going to the Duchy of Sorrow and meeting the chief maid, he no longer considered 'nobility' to be an unattainable thing.

The aristocracy is noble not because of their blood, but because they have a monopoly on knowledge, a monopoly on supernatural power, and therefore they are 'nobler' than the commoners—only because they have 'brains' and 'wrists'!

Even when he was a teenager when his family fell apart because of his father's 'suicide' and his title was withdrawn, he once thought that he had a noble bloodline and was different from those mud-legged people.

But as it turned out, there was nothing noble about them.

So now, Yuri Orlov thinks that he should do something noble, something that will make his children and grandchildren proud.

For him, a hereditary title of nobility was not enough.

At this time, a farmer happened to pass by.

Because the place where they were now standing was the only way into the city, the farmer, when he saw the well-dressed 'old man', hid away and wanted to pass by.

But just by looking at it, he found the tall figure in the crowd, and couldn't help shouting: "Master Orlov!"

Bishop Batista and the other clergy turned their heads to look, only to see the farmer take off his hat in the biting cold wind, grin, and bow deeply to the big fat man beside them.

After saluting, the farmer put his hat back on, and then he felt that something was wrong, and immediately looked at Yuri Orlov in some panic, thinking that by greeting him, he was disgraced in front of the other masters.

"It's fine. The head of the Orlov Chamber of Commerce raised his big hand and waved it, and said with a smile: "Aren't you going into the city? These are the priests of the agricultural church, and when they enter the city, they will say that I said it." ”

Yuri Orlov straightened his face, took a breath, and said, "Lady Abundance is going to perform a miracle on the land of the principality!"
