Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World

Chapter 147: Make the first move

Stern looked at Laura seriously and said: "Miss Laura, aren't you kidding?"

Laura smiled slightly and said: "How can I joke with you, elder, about all these things? I have indeed found a source of food, but the food is a little different from what we have eaten before."

After speaking and clapping his hands, Serge immediately brought in the two bags. Laura opened the bags and said to Stern: "This is the grain I found. This is how to make the grain. It is very simple." While doing so, he gave Stern what Zhao Hai had written down.

Stern blankly took the paper from Laura's hand, but never took his eyes off the bag containing corn stubble and cornmeal. This was the first time for Stern, who was well-informed, to see such food.

It took Stern a while to come back to his senses, and he carefully looked at the paper in his hand. There were not many words on the paper, and the method was very simple. After a while, Stern finished reading it.

After reading it, Stern put down the paper, looked at Laura and said: "Ms. Laura, how much of this kind of food is there? What's the price?"

Laura smiled slightly and said: "This kind of food belongs to a friend of mine. He said that he just didn't want to see the civilians of the Principality of Versailles suffer, so he took it out. There are more than two million kilograms in total, and the price is just Just like ordinary bamboo rice.”

Stern's breathing was a little rapid, but the key was that he was too excited. He immediately said: "Can I meet this friend of Miss Laura?"

Laura looked at Stern and knew what he was thinking, but she shook her head and said: "I'm sorry, elder, my friend doesn't like to be in contact with people, but please don't worry, elder. I can guarantee that he does have something in his hand." grain."

Stern also knew that he was a little abrupt, and immediately said: "Okay, then this matter will be hard for Miss Laura. I wonder what help Miss Laura needs?"

Laura nodded and said: "Elder Stern also understands that once the situation in the Ika Plain is publicized, the entire Principality of Versailles will definitely fall into panic. In this case, we There is really a limit to what these businessmen can do, so they can only ask the Versailles family to come forward."

Stern nodded and said: "That's no problem. Please rest assured, Miss Laura, but to be honest, Miss Laura, these two million kilograms of grain are not enough."

Laura smiled and said: "Don't worry, elder, my friend said that after these more than two million kilograms of grain are sold out, he can provide us with 350,000 kilograms of grain every day. I don't know if this is enough." ?”

Stern laughed loudly and said: "Enough, that's enough. Miss Laura must thank your friend properly for me."

Laura smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry, elder, Laura knows how to do it. The matter is settled. I will go get the food in three days, but for this security work, I will ask the elder to help."

Stern also understood what Laura meant. He flashed a cold look in his eyes and said: "Miss Laura, please don't worry. In the Principality of Versailles, no one can do anything to the Versailles family."

Laura nodded and stood up and said: "Then Laura will leave. Please don't worry, elder. Although my friend has a little friction with the Versailles family, he will not joke about this matter. I You can guarantee it with your own life." After saying that, he bowed to Stern and turned around to leave.

Stern was stunned by what Laura said. He didn't quite understand what Laura meant. Judging from the meaning of Laura's words, his friend should have a grudge against the Versailles family, but he had a grudge against the Versailles family. Her relationship seems to be very good.

When he thought of this, Stern's expression couldn't help but change. He thought of a person, a person who had suffered a loss from the Versailles family some time ago, and this person still lives outside Casa City.

The more I think about it, the more I think it’s right. Only that person has a grudge against the Versailles family. Likewise, only that person has a good relationship with Laura. Laura had a lot of contact with that person some time ago, and she also learned from that person. He got the magic radish that was of particularly good quality. He knew this, but that person had saved Laura's life, and it was normal for the two of them to have some contact, so he didn't care.

Now it seems that Laura’s food was probably given to her by that person. When he thought of this, Stern couldn't sit still anymore, and immediately stood up and said loudly: "Quick, send someone to check, who has Laura been in contact with recently."

After a while, people came to report to Stern. Among the people who had been in contact with Laura recently, it is worth noting that only Zhao Hai’s warriors were following him. As soon as he heard this, Stern understood that Laura’s food must come from It was held in Zhao Hai's hand.

After confirming this, Stern's face couldn't help but become even more ugly. He understood the meaning of Laura's previous words. Laura knew that he could definitely find out where her food came from, so she followed him. He said those words, but did they really reassure Stern?

The answer is no!

At this time, how could Stern completely trust an enemy? He immediately told the Presbyterian Council of the Versailles family about the matter, which was beyond his management.

Laura had long thought that the Versailles family would send people to check the provenance of the food, but she was not worried. The Versailles family had only this option now. If they did not cooperate with her, they would have no choice but to watch those merchants. Their bodies were cut, which the Versailles family could not bear.

The big aristocrats have the pride of the big aristocrats. This time the big merchants are acting together. Although the Versailles family cannot use force to deal with them, they will not suffer this loss. Now there is a chance to fight back. How could they Missed it.

The decision of the Versailles family did not go beyond Laura's expectations. Compared with their hatred with Zhao Hai, the big trading houses went too far this time, so the Versailles family decided to resolve the matters of the big trading houses first. Zhao Hai's matter can be put aside for a while.

In their eyes, big nobles like the Versailles family have no permanent enemies, only interests. For the benefit of the family, they can sacrifice everything, let alone more than a hundred people killed by Zhao Hai. A thousand people were wiped out by Zhao Hai at once. As long as it brought them huge benefits, they would immediately become friends with Zhao Hai. This was the survival rule of a big family.

So the day after Laura went to the Versailles family, Stern came to visit. This time Stern came to discuss cooperation with Laura.

Looking at Stern's current performance, Laura understood the decision of the Versailles family. She didn't say much, but just discussed some details of their cooperation with the Versailles family.

After Laura and the others discussed it, Laura immediately sent people to pull food from Rock Rock Mountain. Of course, this time their team pulling food was protected by experts sent by the Versailles family.

Just as Laura's convoy set off, the Versailles family announced that today the Ika Plain was hit by an unprecedented insect plague, and the entire Ika Plain had become extinct.

As soon as this news came out, the world was shocked. Not only was the Principality of Versailles affected, but also the areas around them. Only those in the surrounding areas understood why some people were collecting grain at high prices some time ago. People who have grain in their hands no longer sell it.

But then the Versailles family announced that although the food production in the Ika Plain had stopped, there was no problem with the food supply of the Principality of Versailles, ensuring normal supply.

Even so, the food consumption here in the Principality of Versailles still increased sharply, and the price of food also began to rise slowly, but not too much, because the Bian'an Flower Shop and the Versailles family began to sell grain at a fair price at the same time, but the general price of food also began to rise slowly. However, the Sayre family has made certain restrictions. All people who buy grain in the Bi'an flower shop and the Versailles family's shop must hold a household registration certificate from the Principality of Versailles, and the amount of grain purchased by each person is also limited. .

This is exactly what the Versailles family and Laura came up with. They took the initiative to tell the story about the situation in the Ika Plain, and then began to distribute grain at a fair price. In order to fear that the big businessmen would come to accuse them of randomly buying cheap grain and then reselling it, Only then did they come up with the idea of ​​proving user registration and limiting the amount of food each person can buy.

As soon as this move came out, the big trading houses were really caught off guard. They did not expect that the Versailles family would take the initiative to say that their food production was out of production. This unconventional approach made them embarrassed. The horns are in chaos.

What made them even more unexpected was that this time the Versailles family actually used war food supplies for emergency response. When they wanted to increase food prices, the food prices were quickly calmed down.

War rations are available in every country, no matter it is a big country or a small country. War rations will not be used unless absolutely necessary, because war rations are specially designed for war. If the war rations are used easily, all war rations will be used. Once a war breaks out and the soldiers have no food to eat, they will naturally have no fighting capacity, and the country will be destroyed.

Although the world is relatively peaceful now, the Principality of Versailles should not use war supplies. The Principality of Versailles is in the north of the Aksu Empire, with the black soil wasteland to the east. There cannot be any war there, and to the west To the south are the fiefdoms of the other two nobles, the Iksa family and the Bolton family, and to the north is the orc grassland, which is not so peaceful.

Orcs are warlike. Although they get along well with humans now, the environment in the orc grasslands is not very good. Orcs mainly focus on herding, so once they encounter natural disasters, their lives will be very difficult. The orcs will go south to plunder.

In recent years, the Versail family has not developed as quickly as other big families on the mainland. This has a lot to do with being adjacent to the orcs. They have to maintain a large number of troops to constantly guard against the attacks of the orcs. .

However, in recent years, the situation in the orc grassland has been very good, and they have no intention of going south to plunder. On the contrary, they will do business with the Versailles family, which has made the Versailles family make a lot of money.

But even so, the Versailles family shouldn't use war supplies. That would be risking the safety of their own family just to save some gold coins. It's not worth it.
