The Dictatorial Lords

Locke finally found a sense of presence in Zhang Zhao. Hey, everyone might have guessed that this food is corn. This is from the system not knowing how long ago it was updated. If Locke hadn't been bored yesterday and looked at the system, he probably won't find out until the next system update. It is not unreasonable for Locke to say that the system is cheating every time.

"Haha, Zhang Zhao, this kind of thing can be stored much longer than sweet potatoes and potatoes. The most important thing is that this thing can be stored for several years after drying." Locke laughed.

When Zhang Zhao heard that it could be stored for several years, he was shocked. Is there any food in this world that can be stored for several years and still be eaten? He hurriedly asked: "My lord, what is so miraculous? If there is this kind of food, our Orz business can increase several times. Not only can we enter those human kingdoms, but we can also maintain a good relationship with them. The nobles' territory can still be protected."

"This thing is called corn, how is it? I haven't heard of it, haha, it's still something from our Blue Star, but it hasn't been introduced in your time."

Zhang Zhao nodded. If there was something in his time, he must have heard of it. If there was this kind of food at that time, the world would not be in such a mess.

Zhang Zhao asked, "My lord, can this kind of food be grown on a large scale? How can it be stored for several years? How does it taste?" I don't blame Zhang Zhao for asking, you know, if it can't be grown on a large scale, it will be very difficult for Orz is useless, and those nobles whose appetite is fed by sweet potatoes and potatoes will not be willing to accept corn as a food.

Hearing Zhang Zhao's question, Locke smiled and said, "Don't worry, Zhang Zhao, this kind of food can be grown on a large scale, and the taste is also very delicious. As for the storage problem you mentioned, don't worry, this kind of food, after being used It can be stored for a long time after being dried, and the dried corn can also be processed into a variety of foods. It is definitely more popular than sweet potatoes and potatoes.” With that said, Locke took out a few corns from his arms Handed it to Zhang Zhao and said, "No, this is corn. You can try it. It's delicious, haha. Although it's all grains, it's definitely a large amount."

Zhang Zhao took the corn that Locke handed over, put it in his mouth and lightly bit a kernel, a kernel of corn burst in Zhang Zhao's mouth, the delicious juice instantly conquered Zhang Zhao, there is such a taste in this raw food. Taste, isn't it more delicious after being cooked? Zhang Zhao bit another corn and said, "My lord, this kind of food is so delicious when eaten raw. I think our corn will be more popular with those nobles than sweet potatoes and potatoes. The caravan we send will be able to It's faster to succeed outside. I still don't believe that any nobleman can resist this temptation."

After seeing Zhang Zhao's satisfaction, Locke said: "Then let's grow this kind of corn as soon as possible, and then let our caravans spread all over the human territories. I can't wait to see our intelligence network spread all over the human territories. "

After talking about this, Locke asked: "Zhang Zhao, now that the orc and human armies have left the Waigrut Wilderness, although we haven't started a war here, we still can't relax. We have to let Avery continue to deploy defenses on the border. I will definitely not come back, and you are in charge of setting up troops, who will you leave the corn planting to? Hal is busy with the business department now, but he doesn't have more energy to take care of these things."

Hearing this, Zhang Zhao smiled wryly: "My lord, why did you forget Lawrence? Most of the Ratman tribe went out to build a garrison station, and they have nothing to do now. Although there is a Ratman construction team, Lawrence doesn't need to monitor it personally." Well, it can be handed over to other ratmen."

Locke also reacted, now to say who is the most leisurely in Orz, there will be no one except Lawrence. Since the expansion of Orz was completed, only the Ratmen were used in the construction of the Garrison. At other times, the Ratmen are busy with their Ratman construction team. But it didn't take Lawrence not to stare. Now that guy Lawrence doesn't know which pub he's drinking in.

"Well, Lawrence has indeed been free recently, and I thought it would be impossible for him to take a good rest after being busy for so long." Locke said helplessly. is not that right. Only from Locke's construction of Orz, the Ratmen have never rested for a day. They are constantly expanding All Oz and building the bazaar. Otherwise, can All Oz and the current bazaar become the current scale? Without the talent of the Ratmen, this time would definitely be delayed by one year.

After calling the guard at the door to call Lawrence, Locke said straight to the point: "Lawrence, you have had enough rest during this period, and now Zhang Zhao and I have a very important task for you."

When Lawrence heard this, he immediately sat up straight and said, "My lord, if you have anything to do with us, let us tell the Ratmen. It just so happens that we don't have anything to do right now. For the sake of Orz, and for the sake of the city lord."

"Don't be so serious, Lawrence, you are also an old man of our Orz. You are also a manager now. Why are you so serious." Locke laughed. "Let's put it this way, do you know the sweet potatoes and potatoes of our Orz? Now they are selling very well on the human side, and now we have found another edible plant, which is similar to sweet potatoes and potatoes, But it is longer than their storage, and can be stored for several years, and we are going to leave it to you to do this."

When Lawrence heard Locke say that this new food can be stored for several years, his eyes lit up. As a rat man who used to live on a budget, he certainly knew what this food stored for several years represented. . In the past, the storage time of sweet potatoes and potatoes was only a few months, and he didn't care about it, but the meaning of this food that can be stored for several years is very different.

represents what? During this period of time, there will be famine, and the tragedy of the past will never happen again when there is no grain harvest, and the nobles will not have to encounter the phenomenon of the leaders running away.

The nobles no longer need to become down-and-out nobles, they can enjoy it with peace of mind in their own territory. As long as there is food, the people at the bottom will not make any trouble.

Now that the city lord actually asked him to manage such an important thing, Lawrence immediately felt that he was deeply trusted by Locke, and replied excitedly: "Don't worry, my lord. I, Lawrence, will definitely manage this kind of food for you."

Seeing Lawrence patted his chest to reassure, Locke laughed and said: "Lawrence, don't be so serious, just take care of it like planting sweet potatoes and potatoes. Haha, we will have a brand new food in Orz from now on."
