The Lord Who Wants to Be Emperor

Inside the residence of the regent of Kyoto.

Patrick brought Alonso to the meeting.

On the huge conference table, the regent Kirilenko on the main seat, and the others are the real power aristocrats in Kyoto.

"Because of the economic blockade of the Maksim Federation, it not only refused to import food for us, but also refused us to export various large-scale commodities, which seriously affected the economic development of the provinces. If this continues, the nobles in various places will not be able to support it.

Duke Uzmi said neither salty nor indifferent.

Although the matter is serious, the main industries of their Balal family are all in Kyoto. After all, the Kyoto market is so big that it is more or less digestible and has little impact. So when it comes to this, I am not interested.

Other nobles are not so easy. The iron ingots and various commodities produced on the territory are their source of wealth. Now they are all unsold in the territory. The situation on the whole continent is extremely bad. No one dares to form a caravan to go out for trade at this time. There are refugees everywhere, who knows if they, who are starving, will take a cameo appearance as a bandit.

Large-scale merchants also need a lot of manpower to take charge. Without enough food, caravans cannot go far.

To put it simply, everyone is now very poor and has no economic income. Life is getting more and more difficult. Everyone sits together and talks about this issue.

After discussion, we didn’t even discuss a decent way.

The regent looked at Patrick and said with a smile: "I heard that the spy report said that the province of Mellock was not affected by the drought and locust plague. This year is still a good harvest year."

Patrick's eyebrows twitched, and he said, "I heard that, and then?"

Blue veins rose on the regent's forehead, and his voice became cold.

"The royal family has reached a trade agreement with Mellock province. I heard that it has purchased nearly 100 tons of food from Mellock province. Recently, it even organized a large locust hunting team to remove locusts in areas near the river."

Patrick couldn't help but sink into thought.

The other nobles also showed joy, at least they heard good news from it.

Melox saves money and food.

Alonso's breathing couldn't help but quicken.

The higher Aslan passed, the harder Alonso felt.

"Then what?" Patrick said unsatisfactorily.

Uzmi said casually: "Then let you build a bridge to see if you can buy a batch of grain from the province of Mellock, and if possible, sell these commodities to the province of Mellock by the way."

Patrick was silent for a long time, and finally shook his head, quickly shifting the target.

"My relationship with Aslan has reached a freezing point, it is better to come forward than Uzmi, after all, your niece is now the lord of the main city of Kers."

Uzmi opened his eyes and said helplessly: "I am the one who killed her biological parents. I'm afraid there will be no return."

The regent eventually transferred his goal to the Duke of Durandal.

"Duke Durandal, why don't you go to the province of Melox? See if we can open up a business route. If necessary, we can make profit."

Duke Durandal was an old man with white hair. He sat quietly at the corner of the conference table and did not speak from beginning to end. He was completely transparent.

He has always been called the good old man in Kyoto and a famous university in Kyoto.

If you think he is a good guy and dare to despise him, then the end will be very miserable.

The more educated people are, the more vicious they are.

Durandal nodded and said.

"Well, I'll go to Merlot in person and visit my old friend Cornwall by the way."

Within the Kyoto Imperial Palace.

The little emperor Shani was lazily eating frozen sweet protein cakes. This is a protein cake made by Aslan specially for the nobles. The color is mainly white and light green.

It is impossible to eat only one meal a day, let alone a little emperor who is growing his body.

The protein cakes are all bought by the Kyoto Guards by catching locusts. On the one hand, they reduce food consumption and on the other hand, they ensure the combat effectiveness of the Kyoto Guards.

In order to facilitate the rapid transportation of locusts, several great wizards majored in magical space in the past six months, expanding the magical space to eight cubic meters, and with the flying magic horse that is being tested, it can go back and forth in a few days.

It is precisely because of the airlift that the royal family has been more moisturized during this period of time. It even attracted a lot of little nobles in Kyoto, which greatly improved the strength of the royal family.

Frada also sat aside and ate protein cakes, which belonged to high-calorie foods, and one piece was enough for a meal at his age.

Yitzhak didn't look at the two enjoying himself, and tore off a chicken leg by himself.

The breeding industry in Merlot is now very developed, especially pork and chicken meat, which even ordinary civilians can afford. This time the great wizard brought back a ‘carriage’ of meat.

It's just that the little emperor and Vlada prefer to eat soft and waxy protein cakes than meat.

"Recently, Melox's province has been unexpectedly quiet. Except for a mind-boggling accident, he hardly participates in other affairs?" Yitzhak looked at Vlada and asked.

The little emperor stuffed the last piece of protein cake into his mouth and looked at Vlada seriously.

One meal a day is for the people to see, the emperor is dignified, and there is a shortage of food.

Vlada put down the knife and fork in his hand, and said solemnly: "On the surface, I'm only doing business, but my people secretly discovered something incredible."

"Ok!"

Yitzhak and the little emperor couldn't help showing solemn expressions.

"Merlot seems to be on the line with the Asian subcontinent. Some time ago, we saw Mero use a huge aerial vehicle to transport supplies to the Asian subcontinent. Now, on the border, a huge logistics base has become a scale." Rada told the most important information of this meeting.

"Yadong Subcontinent?" Yitzhak couldn't help but get the spirit.

Regarding the Yadong subcontinent, as long as people with certain identities know that place, it is cut off by the ocean and several steep mountains, and the only exit happens to be given to the card owner by the Maxim Federation.

The Maksim Federation relied on plundering the wealth of the East Asian subcontinent to rise.

If Aslan really establishes trade relations with the East Asian subcontinent, it will also be a constraint for the Maxim Federation.

"How is the Yadong subcontinent now?" the little emperor asked curiously.

Vlada said with a look of disgust: "It's very poor. The entire Asian and Eastern subcontinent is divided into dozens or even hundreds of countries. War is the first melody there. The overall technological level is decades behind the mainland, but there is an advantage. I have to say that the food production of the Asian subcontinent is very high, and more than 70% of the food produced by the Maksim Federation comes from the Asian subcontinent."
