Whether His Majesty the King has a headache, Krabi Morey, director of the Foreign Trade Department of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Kingdom of Sac, does not know. He only knows that if he cannot complete the task within half a month, I am afraid he will not need to worry about whether he will be able to do so in the future. This problem will give him a headache, because he will most likely have his head chopped off by the furious His Majesty the King. ↖,

Although the Sak Kingdom is not particularly constrained by food production like the previous Lampali Kingdom, so that widespread famines often occur, it is actually extremely difficult and must spend a large amount of fiscal revenue every year to import food from other countries. superior.

In the previous hundreds of years, the Kingdom of Sark had solved its problem by importing grain from its neighbor to the northwest, the Kingdom of Falk. However, in recent years, the Kingdom of Lampali has increased its grain production significantly, and a large amount of grain is exported every year. After careful comparison, the Ministry of Agriculture of the Kingdom of Sak found that the price of grain exported by the Kingdom of Lampali was 20% cheaper than that of the Kingdom of Falk, and the quality was very good. Therefore, even if the two countries were feuding, The Ministry of Agriculture of the Kingdom of Sak still has no choice but to import grain from the Kingdom of Lampali at the risk of being scolded.

Last year alone, the Sak Kingdom imported 360,000 tons of rice and 470,000 tons of wheat from the Lampali Kingdom. Together with other types of grains, the total exceeded one million tons, which cost the Sak Kingdom up to seven years. A huge financial budget of millions of gold coins.

Although it is much lower than the minimum 10 million gold coins that the Sak Kingdom spent on importing food from the Falk Kingdom every year in previous years, in the eyes of the Sak Kingdom Parliament and His Majesty the King, a large amount of food is imported from the enemy. It's really not something worth supporting.

Moreover, the food output of the Lampali Kingdom was even more miserable than that of the Sak Kingdom. In recent years, production has suddenly increased dramatically. There is obviously a special reason why so much food can be exported.

After investigation, the Sak Kingdom finally confirmed that the reason why the Lampali Kingdom’s food production has increased dramatically in recent years is entirely because the various farmland magic machines developed by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce have greatly improved the Lampali Kingdom’s farmland utilization rate. The agricultural efficiency of the Lampali Kingdom.

In addition, the chemical fertilizers produced by Xinfei Chamber of Commerce are also a great tool for increasing food production.

So after research, the Ministry of Agriculture of the Kingdom of Sac finally confirmed a plan to use the same method to increase grain production.

But there is a problem with this plan. That's because the Sak Kingdom once launched an attack on the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, which resulted in an unharmonious relationship between the two parties. The Sak Kingdom has always been worried about the obstacles in importing a large amount of farmland magic machinery from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce.

However, the reality was far beyond the expectations of the Sak Kingdom.

First, the Lampali Kingdom proposed to jointly build a free trade area with the Sak Kingdom, which opened the first normal trade model between the two countries in hundreds of years.

Then when the two sides signed the free trade area agreement, the Sak Kingdom tentatively proposed to the Lampali Kingdom that it hoped to purchase a large number of new Fei brand farmland magic machines through the Lampali Kingdom. Unexpectedly, it received an offer from the Lampali Kingdom. Agree, and successfully contacted the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce through the Lampali Kingdom, and obtained permission to import a large number of farmland magic machinery.

At the same time, the Sak Kingdom also made a special trip to introduce some of the first batch of expert and veteran farmers from Bangta City to participate in the new farming model of farmland magic machinery. Assist in the promotion of Sark Kingdom in the country.

Through trials in the autumn planting season of the previous year and last year, a large number of Xinfei brand farmland magic machines were used. The Kingdom of Sac, which imitated the planting model of Bangta City, has achieved very good results, and its grain output has been greatly improved every season.

Just after spring this year, according to statistics from the Ministry of Agriculture of the Sac Kingdom, the total grain output harvested across the country has more than doubled that of last spring.

Although this output is not enough for the Sak Kingdom to be self-sufficient, it has greatly alleviated the food pressure within the Sak Kingdom.

Coupled with the large amount of cheap and good food imported from the Kingdom of Lampali and the Principality of Standing, the Kingdom of Sac has easily solved its year-round food problem this year.

This is the first time in hundreds of years that the Sark Kingdom has been able to solve this primary problem so easily.

Therefore, no matter how the Sak Kingdom feels about the Lampali Kingdom and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce from top to bottom, they all agree that they must continue to strengthen improvements in farmland farming and strive to be close to or reach the current level of the Lampali Kingdom. , completely solving the problem of food self-sufficiency.

In this context, the Foreign Trade Department of the Ministry of Agriculture of the Kingdom of Sak has undertaken the most important task of contacting the Kingdom of Lampali and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, striving to obtain more from the Kingdom of Lampali, especially from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. support.

It should be said that the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has shown an attitude that is very satisfactory to the Sark Kingdom from the very beginning.

Although the requirements put forward by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce are very harsh, for example, the Sak Kingdom needs to provide a large amount of mineral resources in exchange, and it must also give up a large part of the Sak Kingdom's internal mineral share to them, but in general, Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has always shown a very good cooperative attitude.

Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has no excuses for the various farmland magic machines required by the Sak Kingdom. Basically, it provides whatever the Sak Kingdom needs, and the supply is very proactive and timely. At the same time, it also provides sufficient and complete technical support, making the Sak Kingdom The Kingdom of Croatia was able to quickly complete the reform of the overall model of farmland farming and quickly increase domestic grain production.

Although there are many objections to this within the Sak Kingdom, especially the military, saying that this will greatly increase the strength of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce and is tantamount to indirectly supporting the enemy, this view is really insufficient under the primary goal of solving the food problem. Seems very weak.

But this time, when the Sac Kingdom proposed to the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce that it needed to spend a large amount of products produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, it encountered unexpected obstacles.

The Xinfei Chamber of Commerce did not directly reject the Sac Kingdom's purchase of fertilizers, but told Krabi Morey. Because the fertilizer processing plant was actually jointly run by the elves and the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. The production and operation of fertilizers are all in the hands of the elves. Therefore, if the Sark Kingdom wants to purchase fertilizer, it must negotiate with the elves themselves.

And when Krabi Morey found the person in charge of the Moon Shadow Fertilizer Processing Plant under the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, Supervisor Sandy from the Moon Shadow tribe, the other party put forward a condition that was almost impossible for Morey to agree to.

"Dear Director Sandy, what do you need a piece of territory for?" Morey suppressed the absurdity in his heart, frowned and asked Sandy: "As far as I know, your Moon Shadow tribe has always lived in Standing Park. Domestic? Then even if we take away a piece of territory from our Sark Kingdom, it will be of no use to you."

Sandy's long, pointed ears twitched slightly. He seemed to hesitate for a moment, then showed an unnatural smile and said: "You don't need to understand what use this is to us, you just need to know that this is the condition we proposed. If you are willing to agree, then we can Sell you cement, if you don’t agree, then goodbye.”

Morey looked at Sandy speechlessly, thinking that the elves were really as unkind as the legend said. They also had no negotiation skills at all, and they just laid out the conditions so rigidly.

There was a pause. Morey asked without giving up: "Well... Director Sandy, can we change the conditions? Except for the territory. I can agree to any conditions."

"No." Sandy shook her head, her face calm but determined.

Morey could only smile bitterly.

Although when he was negotiating with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, he found that their president Xu Yi and CEO Kennard were very cunning and difficult, which caused him a lot of hardships, but in comparison, he would rather negotiate with Xu Yi and Kennard. The two of Nader struggled for a long time and were unwilling to negotiate with this beautiful female elf.

Because this female elf is not negotiating with you at all!

After a moment of silence, Morey thought about how the Minister of Agriculture found him in person and warned him for a long time before leaving. He took a breath and decided not to give up too early. After thinking about it, he asked again: "Okay... Supervisor Sandy , can I know your specific requirements? For example, what territory do you need? And what do you want to do with this territory? You should understand that if you obtain this territory, it will affect our Sark Kingdom. If there is a threat, we will not agree to it anyway.”

Sandy nodded, took out a document and handed it to Morey.

Morey was slightly stunned.

Unexpectedly, these elves had already prepared relevant plans. They were obviously prepared for it.

What surprised him even more was that the elves actually prepared documents and plans in advance like humans. This was really like what a human would do.

As a result, he opened the document and took a closer look. Morey discovered that the territory requested by the Moon Shadow Tribe was just a piece of land adjacent to the Black Rice Wasteland, with the sea to the west and a small area, about a dozen square kilometers.

If this territory had not been deliberately searched for, I am afraid that Morey, a native of the Sac Kingdom, would not have been able to find it immediately.

Seeing this, Morey felt a little relieved.

If the Moon Shadow Tribe is asking for an important piece of territory within the Sark Kingdom, then it is impossible for the Sark Kingdom to agree to it anyway.

Now what they are asking for is such a remote and completely inconspicuous territory, so there is some possibility of negotiation.

And because Yueying's request was too important, it was beyond what he, the director of the Foreign Trade Administration of the Ministry of Agriculture, could afford, so it had nothing to do with him.

The only thing he needs to do now is to convey the Moon Shadow Tribe's request back and leave it to His Majesty the King to make a decision.

Thinking of this, Morey showed a smile to Sandy, nodded slightly and said: "Director Sandy, I hope you can give us some time to think about it."

Sandy also nodded slightly: "No problem."

After a pause, Sandy seemed to remember something again.

"Director Morey, I must remind you that chemical fertilizers also have an expiration date. If you take too long to make a decision, you will most likely miss the most important spring plowing period this year."

Morey looked suffocated and cursed secretly in his mind, but he could only nod sullenly.
