Chapter 158 The truth is only within the scope of the cannon(1/2)
Divine country.
senate.
Today's protagonist is not a senator, but two justices quarreling.
"I'll say it again, converting grain into cotton is a trend, and the Palace of Greed can't change anything!"
Justice Gurread stood up, paced back and forth in the room, and shouted dissatisfied.
After losing weight for more than half a year, and with the medicine given by him, Judge Gu Ruide is in better health than before.
After losing weight, he can spend more time and energy on dealing with affairs, and even get out of the palace of greed on his own.
Opposite Justice Gureid, sits Justice Grotny, who is responsible for managing the Sword and Cultivation Hall, and is also guilty of gluttony.
Justice Groteney also had some changes.
He was not as thin as before, and his face was rosy. He was leaning on a cane and retorted,
"If all the grain fields are used to grow cotton, and the orcs come again, the food of the divine country will not be able to last for three months!"
After all, cotton ripens once a year and cannot be eaten directly.
In this era, food is definitely the most important strategic material.
If a large area is converted to cotton, there will not be a shortage of food supply. After all, the Sword Farming Palace can adjust according to the market.
The food reserves of Dao Geng Hall have always been abundant.
However, considering the attack of the orcs, the situation is completely different.
This year, due to the attack of the orcs, the harvest has been reduced a lot, and it is necessary to spend money on food storage to survive the winter.
Pure grains will be reduced, and cotton will be planted on a large scale. Waiting for the orcs to come...
The Kingdom of God directly activates the purgatory mode.
"Please use your brain and don't be like those idiots!"
The idiots that Justice Gu Ruide calls are, of course, the elders.
Who said you can't tell senatorial jokes in the Senate?
Justice Gu Ruide said seriously,
"Historically, the orcs have never gone south continuously within two years!"
"You also said it was history!"
Justice Grotny was tit for tat and did not give in.
"If you make a mistake, do you know how many people will die?"
Empiricism?
Justice Groteney doesn't accept this!
"This is eight hundred years of history!"
Justice Gu Ruide was so angry that he was sweating and drank a large amount of water.
No matter what he said, he couldn't convince the stubborn old man in front of him.
Without the consent of the Sword Farming Hall, it would be impossible to promote cotton cultivation on a large scale.
The Senate's view is of course on the side of Justice Gureid.
They purchased a large number of spinning machines from Luden and naturally needed more cotton.
The working efficiency of these spinning machines is just as Luden said, it can save a lot of manpower and material resources!
After weaving the cloth, whether it is sold locally in Shenbang or shipped out via trade routes, the profits from foreign trade are very high!
After the textile machinery was obtained, some people did try to imitate it, and problems were soon discovered.
If you produce the springs used in textile machines by yourself, you cannot guarantee the quality of the product, which will further affect the efficiency of the textile machinery.
If you go directly to Ludeng to buy a spring, it costs hundreds of meters per spring... Add a little money and you can buy a spinning machine directly!
Why don't you do this anymore?
People soon realized that imitating textile machines was not a good way out.
Therefore, they continued to purchase a large number of textile machines from Luden and prepared to expand production.
Cotton supply is out!
The fields in the countryside are ready to be replanted with cotton on a large scale, but they still can't get around the hurdle of the slashing and farming hall.
There is no clear jurisdictional relationship between the justices.
If Justice Grotny really refuses to let go, Justice Gureide can't do anything to him.
Moreover, the reasons given by Justice Grotny are also very legitimate.
If the worst happens, the Kingdom of God will starve to death, a lot of people!
Justice Gu Ruide was furious and rolled his eyes.
"Orc brain!"
He sat back in his seat angrily and did not waste any more time.
Grotny sighed heavily and glanced around with pity, finally landing on the tribune Luden.
"Mr. Luden, I don't understand."
Grotny puts it bluntly,
"You should know that my request is not excessive. It only takes one year for the food reserves in the Sword Farming Hall to return to the level before the orcs came. By that time, you can grow cotton as you like, and I will never say no.
, why don’t you even want to wait a year?”
Grotny knew very well that the man behind all this was none other than Mr. Luden.
"I completely agree with you, Justice Grotney."
Luden corrected the other party rigorously,
"Cotton or grain, it makes no difference to me.
Although I sell all the textile machines on the market, when selling textile machines, I also promised everyone that I will not get involved in the textile industry in the next year!"
Luden was not in a hurry, not at all.
On the contrary, the saint families, wealthy businessmen, and even the judges of the Sword and Farm Hall are very anxious!
They saw the gold mine right in front of them and wanted to reach out and touch it!
Grotny sighed again,
"You really haven't changed, it's them who have changed..."
Overnight, the spinning machine seemed to have magic power, making everyone extremely anxious, just like...Mr. Ludden!
That's right, Mr. Luden's shadow is reflected in everyone's greedy appearance.
Damn it, how did things end up like this!
Justice Grotny gave his bottom line,
"I won't agree to this without solving the orc problem."
Hearing these words, the elders had smiles on their faces, and they were even a little eager to try.
Compared with the justices, the senators are indeed at a disadvantage.
but,
The elders have one power.
When there are disagreements among the justices, they can impeach a justice and make him or her subject to trial by the Citizens' Assembly!
Once more than half of the people vote of no confidence, Justice Grotny must leave the Sword Hall!
They can't solve the problem raised by Justice Grotny, but they can solve the problem raised by the person!
From ancient times to the present, solving people has always been a simpler and more convenient way.
Justice Grotny knew that too.
His persistence, from his point of view, is for the sake of the Kingdom of God.
In the eyes of others, it blocks their way to make money!
Blocking someone's way of making money is like killing your parents.
He still understands this truth.
At this time, Justice Geoffrey of the War Hall stood up and
"The War Palace can guarantee that even if the orcs go south, we will have a way to solve it."
He is no longer acting justice.
To be continued...
