Chapter 152 Prime Minister (Still There Today!)
Back in his tent, Kroeber placed Jiujiu and its Cordyceps beside him.
As it was far away from the nourishment of the earth, Jiujiu looked a little sluggish.
Kroeber handed the plant essence in his arms, which was divided into two parts, to Jiujiu.
"Jiujiu" (Is this for me to eat?)
Jiujiu stared at Kroeber with those cute big eyes.
"Eat it, this is for you."
Kroeber has always had no resistance to such cute creatures. He rubbed Jiujiu's head and signaled it to eat the plant essence in his hand quickly.
Jiujiu slowly flew up, sat in Kroeber's palm, and began to chew the half of the plant essence with both hands.
"Eh?! You little guy."
Kroeber didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
I wanted to hand the plant essence to Jiujiu and let it sit somewhere else to eat.
As a result, this little guy actually sat directly on his hand!
It's not very convenient for me to read the letter this way!
Alas, it's really distressing! (Happy face)
He gently placed the chirp on his shoulder, and when he was sure it would not fall because of his movements, he turned his attention to the two letters.
Griffin's current size was not convenient for him to move freely in the tent, so he lay down at the door of Krober's tent to rest.
He opened the handwritten letter from the Grand Duke, and three or four thick stacks of letters with dense words appeared in Krober's sight.
"Ah? This stack of letters... so many?"
Krober had never seen letters written on so many sheets of paper, especially between nobles, usually a simple piece of paper could explain things clearly.
Generally, those written on so many sheets of paper were just chatting, and normal letters of orders, instructions, etc. could be summarized in just a few sentences.
For example:
"Order Viscount Krober to raid the Scorched Earth Island and destroy all resistance forces on it.
-Veronica. Chijin"
This is the normal order of the Grand Duke.
And this stack of papers...
Forget it, let's take a look first.
"My loyal vassal, Viscount Krober:"
Hmm... the beginning is quite normal, it is the common words used by the lord to command the vassal.
Read on.
"As I write, I have already led the knights of the Golden Duchy to evacuate the City of Dusk and return to the capital of the Emerald Kingdom, the Emerald Valley.
The Duke of the South, Edwin Bronze Fury, who borders the Duchy, has been eyeing the land and wealth of the Golden Duchy.
So, I, Veronica Red Gold, specially appointed Krober Amethyst Rose as the Prime Minister of the Court.
During the war between the Emerald Kingdom and the Mountain Copper Kingdom, he was responsible for all matters related to diplomacy, trade, public security, finance, logistics, intelligence, etc. in Saint Gold Castle and the Golden Duchy.
You must remember one sentence, the Golden Duchy is a completely independent and powerful country. Facing the invasion of the enemy, you must have the courage and strength to fight back.
Young Prime Minister, do you have this confidence?"
After reading the first page, Hyer finally rode to the camp on horseback.
Walking past Griffin lying at the door, Hyer slowly pushed open the door curtain and walked in.
"Lord..."
Hyer respectfully bowed to Krober.
Hyer's arrival disrupted Krober's thinking, but he did not blame Hyer for it.
"Oh, Hyer, let me introduce you, this is Jiujiu, the Venus flytrap elf.
The giant Venus flytrap next to it is its Cordyceps sinensis, you arrange for someone to plant it in the Dragon Blood Basin quickly, in the open space in the southeast."
Hyer noticed Jiujiu, the elf sitting on Krober's shoulder and chewing something, as soon as he entered the door.
After Krober introduced him, he greeted this beautiful magical creature, but Jiujiu, who was busy chewing the essence of plants, ignored him.
"I'll give you another task. This exploration of new islands has been successfully completed. A total of three new islands are under the rule of the Amethyst Rose Family.
I named them Salt Island, Scorched Earth Island, and Green Leaf Island. You quickly pick three groups of slaves and officials from the territory and send them to these three islands for preliminary construction.
The detailed plan is here, and this matter is left to you.
In a few days, I may go to Saint Jin Castle to serve as the Prime Minister of the Court, so I will leave the construction of Amethyst Island and these three islands to you. I hope you won't let me down."
Handing the document in his arms that recorded the general construction direction of the three islands to Haier, Krober sighed helplessly
He had no choice. Plans were not as fast as changes. He originally wanted to grow crops slowly, but the environment did not allow it!
"When I come back, your Blue Jacaranda Family can become the first baron family under my command. Work hard!"
If you want the horse to run, you have to let the horse eat grass.
Krober still understands this principle.
In order to get the only noble family with a certain background under his command to work for him, Kroeber also threw out his bait and waited for Haier in front of him to take the bait.
Things really developed as Kroeber expected. When Haier heard that his family was about to restore the title and honor, he was so excited that he couldn't even speak.
He trembled for a long time before uttering a word of gratitude to the adults.
But Kroeber didn't mind.
He suddenly remembered what he promised Shen Zi at that time.
"By the way, there is one more thing. Except for the magic plants in the military merit department, immediately load all the magic plants in the territory onto the ship and transport them to the scorched earth island.
After placing the magic plants on the island, you can leave.
Also, go to Hans for the sea charts of these three islands. I gave them to him."
"Yes! Lord!"
Hair was not at all curious about why his lord would leave all the magic plants on the island. In his opinion, whatever the lord did was right.
He would do whatever the lord told him to do.
"Okay, it's okay. Go and deal with these things."
"Then I'll take my leave, Lord."
After saying that, Haier turned around and planned to leave the tent.
"Wait... there's one more thing."
Krober rubbed his brows tiredly. He just remembered that there was an important thing he hadn't dealt with.
"Mes is dead. I remember that he has no parents or relatives. You should give his pension to his fiancée.
...
Also, send back the knight's sword in my study. Just say that I gave the sword to Mes. Since Mes is dead, the sword belongs to her."
In the end, Kroeber decided to send the knight's sword away.
"Understood, sir, I'll do it right away."
"Go ahead..."
