At this time, Chino remembered that the night after the last meeting, he saw a raven fly out of the palace in the night.

The raven was carrying a flying book with only four words on it - Po is dead.

Po is dead...

At the time, Chino did not know who wrote the letter or who it was intended for.

Now it seems that this flying letter was sent to Danyu City, to Gomer and Lin Gengsen? ...

In order to control the influence, Pertheus did not disclose Po's death to the public, but secretly negotiated with the Far Eastern Dynasty.

In other words, except for these people present in the conference room, the outside world didn't know that Po was dead—Gomer and Lin Gengsen didn't know either.

Could it be that ... The method they had thought of before was to buy blood essence grass from the Abao caravan on the premise of not uprooting the ears of wheat in the Danyu Plain, so as to pay for it?

That's a real idea...

However, the fundamental question has not changed, why didn't these two people directly implement the decree, but instead went around in such a twist and turn, and the yang served the yin and disobeyed?

There must be some kind of interest transfer relationship in this, so that they would rather cooperate with a profiteer like Po than carry out the decree.

Moreover, a new question has now arisen - who is the person who sent the flying book?

This person issued Feishu, probably expecting that Gomer and Lin Gengsen would choose to use the method of "buying instead of farming", and he issued the Feishu of "Ah Bao is dead" just to inform these two people in time not to go this way.

In other words, this person knows Gomer and Lin Gengsen very well, and knows the relationship between the interests within Danyu City, and it is even possible... Be involved in it itself.

Who is it?

Chino's gaze silently swept over everyone present...

Pertheus, Andrew, Burton, Ray Sahar, Lan Xian, Edward, Horned Heron, Baldian, and the remaining 7 royal princes...

The only people who knew about Bao's death and could send out that flying letter were these in the conference room.

Someone here, or some people, has an inexplicable relationship with Danyu City.

"There's one thing that doesn't seem quite right...", André's voice caught everyone's attention as Chino pondered.

Andre got up and came to the side of the hanging strategic map, picked up the baton and pointed it on Danyu City, frowned and said: "According to the information transmitted from the front, the dragon fire festival in Danyu City suddenly had a south wind, and the fireworks were out of control, causing the eight granaries in the northern city to catch fire..."

"Fires at Dragonfire Festival are not uncommon and occur in many cities, but... Southerly? The climate of Danyu City is like spring all year round, but the wind direction is similar to that of other places, and now this kind of winter is blowing the north wind, how can there be a south wind? ”

"According to normal circumstances, the location of the fireworks display of the Dragon Fire Festival in Danyu City will definitely be in the south city, so that the fireworks embers will drift south by the north wind and will not threaten the granary of the north city."

"But suddenly there was a south wind, and the fireworks drifted north, which directly caused the granary to catch fire... This is unexpected. ”

Bolton said sarcastically: "So this fire is all because of abnormal celestial phenomena, and the gods are to blame for the natural disaster?" Gomez is not responsible at all? ”

Andre couldn't help but shake his head: "If the situation is really as stated in the intelligence, the south wind blows in winter, and this abnormal celestial phenomenon is indeed unpredictable. Man-made disasters can be prevented, but how to prevent natural disasters? It's hard to blame anyone. ”

"Of course, I'm not saying that the officials of Danyu City are not responsible. So much grain was burned to the ground in the eight granaries, it must be that the follow-up fire fighting was not good, and the fire was not controlled in time, and the grain officials of Danyu City could not escape the blame. ”

Lan Xian held his forehead and said weakly, "I am also responsible... The current grain officer in Danyu City was promoted by me. A few months ago, I went to the town to investigate, and met a local official named Ma Ban, although this person has a strange and ugly face, but he is conscientious, I think he is a good seedling, so I recommended him to Danyu City as a grain officer, I didn't expect to make this kind of mistake after only a few months in office, I really lost my eyes..."

Andre was silent for a moment, carefully browsed the documents, and then put them in front of Lan Xian, and said solemnly: "It doesn't seem right, according to the information sent back, during the Dragon Fire Festival, the current grain official of Danyu City is named Kai Rui, not the Ma Ban you said." ”

"What?!" Lan Xian took the document in shock and looked at it carefully, his brows on both sides locked together, "The grain officer I recommended, they changed so quickly?" What the hell is Gomez up to..."

"Tuk! Sincere! Sincere! Pertheus tapped his knuckles on the table and said impatiently, "These things will be settled slowly in the future, and now there is a question - what should the blood essence grass do?" ”

"I have negotiated with the Far Eastern Dynasty many times in the past few days, and they have refused to provide us with Blood Essence Grass for various reasons, and it seems that they are ready to watch the fire from the other side. We are on our own. ”

"But now that the food has been burned out, and the seeds of the Blood Essence Grass have not been planted, how will this matter be advanced next?"

Speaking of this, Persius looked at Chino and said in a very serious tone: "The idea of cultivating the Blood Essence Grass was put forward by you, and you should think more carefully than we should have thought about all kinds of emergency plans. Tell us what you think. ”

Actually, Chino didn't want to speak, because the water was too muddy.

He had thought that the plan he had proposed would be carried out very efficiently, and that when the kingdom had lifted the beast crisis, he would be commended for coming up with a reliable plan.

It's a good thing now, being messed up like this by the officials of Danyu City, the proposer of his plan will be roasted on the fire.

The current problem is concentrated in two points, lack of blood and grass, and lack of food.

The Blood Essence Grass can only be cultivated, and there is no other way, because the "Respect System" cannot exchange for such things.

Food can be exchanged for "Respect Points", but it is not actually operable.

For the more than 6 million people in Danyu City to make a stable transition to next year's autumn harvest, at least 1.62 million tons of grain are needed.

With such a huge amount, Chino is just swapped out, how to explain it? You can't say that you have it in your own home, right?

Even if he insists that he snatched it from a visitor from outside the world, others believe it or not, and don't mention it, even if he believes it, he can't change it.

According to the price in the respect system, 1 ton of grain needs 20 respect points, and 1.62 million tons is 32.4 million respect points, how can he have so many values.

Chino looked up at Perseus and said silently, "Do we have a choice but to stick to it?" ”

It's a short statement, but it's on the minds of most people.

The impending outbreak of the beast plague crisis can only be resolved by the Blood Essence Grass, and if you want to obtain the Blood Essence Grass, you must either import it from the Far East or cultivate it yourself.

The Far East import road was blocked, so there was only self-cultivation, and the only place in the whole of Doguland that met the conditions for cultivation was the Danyu Plain.

Regardless of whether there is food for the sake of the overall situation, it is imperative to cultivate blood essence grass, and there is no other way.

Persius had obviously lost trust in the officials of Danyu City, and he no longer drafted any official documents, and directly issued an order: "Andre, you prepare, this matter is left to you to be fully responsible - you take your own soldiers to Danyu City, within half a month, I will hear the news that the blood essence grass will be planted, regardless of the cost!" ”
