MTL - Dawn of the Grey Tower-Chapter 134 Dungeon Hazards
Latest URL: Compared with the last time we met, Gloria's mental state seems to be better. Thinking in a dark direction, this is likely to be related to the disappearance of the cheese and the ability of the baroness to monopolize the power.
No one can refuse power, although it means a huge burden to bear, but generations of people have never given up tasting the taste of this liquor.
If Gloria has become energetic because of this, then she might as well be moving towards a qualified lord. Those rulers who are ambitious will never allow others to share power, because only in this way can he or she 100% realize your vision.
On the bright side, Gloria may be happy simply because the construction of the dungeon is on the right track, or even because of the return of Cheese. She is still that sincere friend.
However, that doesn't really matter. Really, it doesn't matter at all. Cheese in the past knew that the world was very big, and he had experienced the vast world, but the way he experienced it was through teleportation, and he didn't really go deep into those places. He regarded those experiences as trials.
Therefore, the Cangshi Kingdom, as the scene where he entered the world for the first time in person, will become the place he attaches the most importance to, and even put himself in the quagmire of various forces for this place.
The situation is different now. Having experienced so many places, Cheese's vision has changed from a broadening of knowledge to a broadening of concepts.
This world is very big. The Ratman world underground in the small northern city will not be more impressive than the nomads on the grasslands, and it cannot be compared with Riverrun City and the City of Ten Thousand Laws. It is just a corner of the world. And people tend to spend their lives in a corner.
In a way, we do resemble cave animals, too. Cheese thought for no reason, and then showed a smile that he didn't know whether to respond to Gloria or to himself.
"Welcome back, I hope that the current appearance of Valley City can surprise you, so that everyone's efforts will be more rewarding." Gloria let Cheese and the others into the hall, and at the same time did not forget to talk to Jack and El Say hello to Sha and Mona.
"Trust me, what he brings back will surprise you even more. Let me first describe the lake, two giant dragons." Jack blinked, and in this way informed the news that had worried the entire kingdom. Rat Lady.
"That's really... a bit of a shameless comparison, so you can't win at all." The countess's face collapsed, like a child who found that the goal he hoped for could not be achieved no matter what. Two giant dragons, nothing compares to this.
The cheese shrugged. He had no intention of participating in this kind of competition, but it did not prevent him from joking with his old friends. The chairs were pulled away one by one by the waiters, and the cheese didn't choose to sit in the first seat, but sat in the second seat.
Without him, this is Gloria's office, and he should let the owner of this place sit in her seat for all reasons. If it is now in the Tower of Cheese, then there is no need to be so troublesome. There is only one chair in that leaning tower, and no one has a chance to sit except for the mage who is stuck on it.
"Just by the way, I will explain to you about the two dragons later. What is the current situation in Valley City? Has the snow on the ground affected the food reserves here?" Cheese has not forgotten his trip The purpose is to bring weather changes due to abnormal magic tides.
Early winter and late spring are fatal to the northern countries. They will seriously affect the grain production, resulting in no food for the winter. It can be said that the most intuitive way for the lords in the north to demonstrate their governance capabilities is to see whether the people in their territories can survive the winter safely.
When it came to serious matters, Gloria's expression immediately turned serious. The Ratman Countess has a majestic face, which she has experienced in this position.
Countless times, the Ratmen's council wanted Gloria to be just a symbolic mascot, but she is still the biggest real ruler here,
"Underground crops are not affected much because of the insulation effect of the soil layer. However, eating mushrooms and moss alone will cause malnutrition and even lead to various problems. In the past, we would exchange food reserves with the Legion. This year may be more difficult."
The production of food also follows the principle of cost. The crops on the ground are affected by the weather, and the production is more unstable, but it can provide most of the needs.
The yield of underground crops excludes the most unstable factors. With the current mature cultivation technology, their production capacity is only related to the planting area and the number of farmers who invest in planting.
However, the types of isolated mushrooms in the Northland are very limited. Their nutritional value is very high for people who eat them occasionally, and their taste is also good. But if you use isolated mushrooms as your staple food, the problem will be serious.
"In other words, underground crops can alleviate the shortage of aboveground crops, but it also requires the production of aboveground crops to reach the bottom line. Right?" Cheese took out his notebook, but instead of starting to write by himself, he threw it to You Ni.
The apprentice opened the notebook and found that it was a brand new, unused paper book with a quill stuck in the gap in the binding. Youni immediately understood what the teacher meant, and recorded the things just mentioned.
"My apprentice, now I'm trying to train him. Let's continue." Cheese didn't hide his intentions, and being able to quickly listen and collect and record information was originally an ability that a mage needs to have.
"Okay. You are right, we need at least the production of winter wheat and other grains to reach..." Gloria took a deep look at Youni, as if to remember this apprentice approved by Cheese, and then Immediately continue the topic.
"What's the situation with the Hammer? Can they provide food?" In addition to the Frost Guards, the Duchy of the Hammer has been secretly maintaining trade with the Ratmen~www.novelbuddy.com~ With the secret promise of Grand Duke Andre, Many daring merchants are engaged in this trade.
The Countess shook her head, "I don't know yet, the snow came so suddenly, I think the Grand Duke is also checking the inventory. But to be honest, based on my understanding of the kingdom's territory management, the situation will not be very optimistic. Hammer The territory has a larger population and more arable land, which means a larger disaster-affected area."

"The top priority is to raise enough ground crops for the winter. And in the long run, we need to be able to find a way to grow grains underground." Cheese pointed to the wooden table with his finger and made such a conclusion.
"It's been a hard time for you to be so clear about the various matters in your territory." Generally speaking, the lord will not know the various data so accurately, because these matters will be completed by the corresponding ministers .
"It's much better. The education system you established allows me to recruit enough low-level officials, and they reduce the burden of data collection."
Cheese nodded, flashing in his mind the management state of the City of Ten Thousand Laws after the extremely rich knowledge, and whispered, "It's not enough."
