Mingyue of the Great Song Dynasty http://www./0_1/  The latest work of the great master Xiangnan Xiaoxiaosheng!.

The atmosphere in the palace of Nanshan Kingdom was a little nervous.

It concerns food, and it always affects the nerves of the king and ministers.

The annoyed old king did not show any expression. He looked at Luo Lan with a difficult face: "Prince Luo Lan, Bouji Island is peaceful and has good weather every year, and next year will definitely be a bumper year. Please do not reduce grain exports."

"His Majesty the King doesn't know that once the inland river on my Bouji Island soars, tens of acres of fertile land along the way will be submerged. At that time, I can only rely on Uttar Pradesh and I will no longer be able to sell food." Luo Lan retorted, saying nothing.

In fact, the farmland that Bouke Island really relies on is from Uttar Pradesh. Uttar Pradesh is flat and even if it is flooded, it will be difficult to affect it.

But Luo Lan deliberately concealed the matter, and his tone was quite tough, which made the old king a little embarrassed.

Seeing this, Nictor said: "Since it's next year, there's no hurry to discuss it. Everything depends on the situation. I believe Prince Luo Lan will not disappoint us."

Nictor's words were nonsense, but Luo Lan changed his tough attitude and nodded repeatedly, saying: "The Duke is right, I try not to disappoint the Duke."

Nictor laughed heartily and said to the king again: "Your Majesty, Prince Luo Lan came here mainly to see the customs and culture of our country and have some fun. I will take him on a trip now. It will not be too late to talk about food in the future."

"Yes." The old king nodded and announced his retreat.

Nictor pulled Luo Lan away on the spot, followed by a large group of enthusiastic ministers.

Soon, only five or six loyal ministers of the king were left in the palace. They looked unfavorable and they secretly observed the old king.

The old king's face turned red and white, he couldn't help coughing, and then said angrily: "Is he Luo Lan despising me? Who is the king of Nanshan Kingdom?"

When the loyal ministers heard this, they added fuel to the fire.

"Your Majesty, I have told you a long time ago that Nikto holds great power, and half of the nobles in the country obey his orders, and the people admire him very much. He is becoming more and more arrogant now!"

"Luo Lan is a treacherous villain. He knew that Nictor was more valuable to him, so he flattered Nictor directly and completely ignored you, Your Majesty."

"Nicot is trying to control the lifeline of Nanshan Kingdom. He is so close to Luo Lan, and the food will come to him first in the future. He is completely unafraid of your Majesty."

The fire was added to the fire, but the old king was so angry that he patted his chest and coughed, his face blushed.

"What do you think?" The old king shouted loudly, and the ministers shut up because they didn't know what to do.

Nictor's power was too great and was too important to the Nanshan Kingdom. The king had no choice but to sulk.

"Get out!" The old king cursed angrily when he saw everyone not saying anything, and almost fainted from anger.

On the other side, Luo Lan was surrounded by Nikto and the nobles and was enjoying the mountains and rivers downstream, and they drove west along the road of Nanshan Kingdom.

Of course, it’s not that you want to go to the Western Regions, it’s too far.

Luo Lan suggested to see the arsenal of Nanshan Kingdom, which is the place to build weapons.

At first, Nictor was a little hesitant, but Luo Lan said: "I know the duke is difficult to do, but I go there alone without taking anyone. I don't have the ability to learn and sell it on time. I just admire your country's manufacturing technology too much."

The nobles laughed and agreed.

I have to say that Nictor's power is indeed huge, and even confidential places like the arsenal can bring outsiders in at will.

In the canyon outside a big city, Luo Lan saw an arsenal in Nanshan Kingdom.

It was a canyon with a length of more than 1,000 meters. In the canyon, there were complete stone roads, and among the crisscrossed roads were stone houses and workshops.

Ironmaking, burning soil, forging, polishing... This is an extremely advanced arsenal. Trucks of iron ore are transported in, but what is transported out are sharp weapons.

There are all kinds of swords, spears, arrows, and even stone cones.

Luo Lan drooled in her eyes. He didn't look down on these weapons, but the manufacturing process was too advanced and I don't know how tall it was than Buji Island.

Moreover, this arsenal did not carry out assembly line production, and they worked in one workshop at the same time, rather than some people refining or some people casting swords.

Of course, Luo Lan would not point out this issue. He was amazed throughout the whole process and praised him from time to time, which made the nobles proud and very proud.

Afterwards, Luo Lan went to watch the trench machine manufacturing workshop and was also amazed. The Nanshan Kingdom's craftsmanship is too advanced. No wonder it survived the barren mountains and developed a relatively civilized country.

For seven days, Luo Lan was inspecting the arsenal, and Nictor did not stop him and accompanied him personally. The nobles from all over the country were also very enthusiastic, one by one, and one by one came to accompany Luo Lan.

Luo Lan has also thought about a lot of questions these days. What he thought the most was how to bring the Nanshan Kingdom's craftsmanship to Buji Island.

It is definitely not possible to buy it with money. Nanshan Kingdom is not a fool, and the king will not sell his trump card.

It is not possible to exchange food for it, unless it is absolutely necessary.

This is absolutely necessary to think carefully. If you think correctly, it might be done.

Half a month later, Luo Lan said goodbye.

The grain sales plan of Phuket Island and Nanshan Kingdom remains unchanged this year, and the plan for next year will be discussed next year.

After Luo Lan left, the old king convened a meeting of ministers, and Nictor was also present.

Nictor was very leisurely and contented. Luo Lan's style made him feel comfortable for a long time, but he is still feeling comfortable now.

The old king glanced at Nikto and squeezed out a smile and asked, "Nicto, I heard that you took Luo Lan to see our weapons workshop, what is his reaction?"

The old king was actually very angry because Nictor did not ask him for instructions and took Luo Lan to inspect the arsenal.

Nictor didn't care about this, and he laughed and said, "Prince Luo Lan was very amazed and praised the craftsmanship of our Nanshan Kingdom, and said that he also wanted to have such a powerful craftsmanship."

All the ministers laughed proudly.

The old king felt a little relieved and said coldly: "He wants to dream."

Nictor nodded, "Yes, our craft cannot be spread out. But we should treat Luo Lan well on the surface and let him always provide us with food."

Nikto's heart is still towards Nanshan Kingdom.

The old king waved his hand: "Nicot, you are so familiar with Luo Lan. Find time to go to Bouji Island and negotiate the food sale next year."

"good."

———————

In Uttar Pradesh, Luo Lan and Charles stood on the walls of Galgo, looking at the sea to the east.

"Your Highness, how does this trip feel?" Charles asked.

Luo Lan asked back without answering: "You said, what would happen if we suddenly stopped selling grain and forced Nanshan Kingdom to exchange crafts?"

Charles frowned: "Nanshan Congress compromised, but it is not good for us in the future. The golden triangle must be all friendly countries, otherwise there will be only two corners, and the two corners will not trap Barron."

"Then how do you think you should get the Nanshan Kingdom's craftsmanship"

"Either change technology to technology, or we will take advantage of the chaos in the Nanshan Mountains to take advantage of the situation." Charles said frankly.

Luo Lan hesitated and said nothing.

It is unreliable to wait for the domestic chaos in Nanshan to be in trouble. In a short period of time, Nanshan Country cannot be in a civil unrest, and it will be of no benefit to Buji Island if it is in trouble.

As for technology exchange...

"You said, should we promote Wofengmei?"

Luo Lan suddenly smiled, and Charles' eyes lit up: "Okay, Nanshan Country is remote and you can also use Black Stone secretly. Our Wofeng coal has overproduction and urgently needs to be sold. Moreover, in the future, Black Stone will be pushed to the forefront, and Nanshan Congress will become a target, and no one will pay attention to our small island."21027
