389 Loquat honey
"Teacher, this is a compensation gift from the Iron Empire. ”
"George, you can help me see what is worth it here. After all, Zhou Kun didn't know anything about the words here, so he asked George to sort out the things on the list for him.
"Teacher, in addition to the compensation from the Iron Empire, there are also a batch of precious magic potions that you should be able to use, Teacher. ”
Originally, Zhou Kun thought that this compensation bill was a bill sent by the emperor of the Steel Empire, and he settled the expenses caused by Winnie's destruction, and asked Zhou Kun to help take charge of compensation.
Who knew that the other party didn't mean this, according to George's words, Winnie destroyed other people's cities one by one, and in the end, the emperor of the Iron Empire actually had to pay for himself?
"George, you said that this Iron Empire has any special magic plants, preferably the one with fruits. "Zhou Kun's main concern is naturally what fruits the Iron Empire can bring back.
Who knew that George seemed to have prepared in advance, and soon ordered someone to bring the map of the Iron Empire, and there were many plants along with it.
"Teacher, you see, the city Winnie attacked was not aimless, and the city of Iron and Blood 27 has a magical vine called Yellow Thorn, which can be used as a potion to stop bleeding after being peeled off. ”
Zhou Kun looked at the vine called Yellow Tooth that George took out, and found that it was something he had never seen, and after repeatedly confirming that it was not a fruit he knew, Zhou Kun shook his head and said no.
"Then teacher, look here, Iron Blood 26 City, just on the edge of 27 City, the main cash crop here is a material that can be woven cloth, called cloth vine. ”
Zhou Kun looked at the other vine in George's hand, which was obviously not what he was looking for, so he shook his head again.
Just as George was about to continue the introduction, suddenly George's guards hurriedly ran in and said, "City Lord, there is news from the front that Lord Winnie has just broken the defense of Iron-Blooded 22 City, which is the main crop of 22 City. ”
According to George's orders, every time Winnie breached the defenses of a city, his men would bring back the main crops of the city, and although they did not know what the city owner was doing, they could only do so.
Zhou Kun looked at the thing in the other party's hand, although it was not a complete plant, but the familiar leaves and white flowers on it immediately made Zhou Kun recognize the origin of this thing, isn't this a batch of leaves?
"George, do you know what the main crops are in these 22 cities?"
"Teacher Hui, it is a honey fruit called Lu Tangerine. ”
"Honey fruit?" Zhou Kun had only heard that candy was used to boil sugar before, what is honey fruit?
George was already surprised by Zhou Kun's confusion, so he patiently explained: "It is a kind of nectar-producing fruit, and the locals raise a large number of honey insects to collect nectar. ”
After some explanation, Zhou Kun understood that the honey worm George was talking about is the bee, and the loquat is a honey-producing plant here, due to the low efficiency of sugar production here, so the nectar has also become the main source of sugar here, and the crops such as longan and Shakya discovered by George before are extremely rare here, and white sugar can be equivalent to gold.
"George, let's go to Iron Blood 22 now, and by the way, persuade Winnie that she should stop. ”
When Zhou Kun and George rushed to City 22, Winnie looked at the city wall in front of her, which had been reduced to ruins, and her face was expressionless.
When she got the news that her father was imprisoned for his failed rebellion, she chose to go to the Iron Empire to rescue her as soon as possible, but in the end it failed.
Brother George told her that since her father had not been executed immediately, there was room for relaxation, and what he lacked was a bargaining chip.
So George and Winnie worked out a rescue plan overnight, the first step was to make Leopold, the owner of the Iron Empire, pay attention to Winnie's existence.
Only if Winnie's existence has value, then the life of the Iron and Blood Grand Duke will become important, so Winnie began to attack the Acropolis of the Iron Empire, according to the plan formulated by George, she only broke through the defense of the Acropolis, and did not easily slaughter the soldiers and civilians of the city lord, the purpose of this is to give Leopold a deterrent, whether it is the Acropolis or the Imperial City, it is an existence that can be easily broken through for Winnie.
According to the original plan, Winnie needed to break through more than twenty cities, leaving Leopold some time to think about it, and now that she had reached the thirteenth city, according to George, she was breaking through the city too fast, and Winnie needed to slow down her pace.
After all, what they want is a chance to negotiate, not a battle to the death.
"Winnie, what have you done!" Although Zhou Kun already had some expectations in his heart, looking at the ruins of the city wall in front of him and the 22 cities that were naked in sight, Zhou Kun couldn't imagine what kind of panic the citizens in the city would be.
"Teacher..."
"Winnie, the king of the Iron Empire has sent a compensation list, you go back with me, and stop from now on! As for your father, I will negotiate peace with the other party and ask them to release him. ”
Zhou Kun once again had a clear understanding of his title of Great Magister, even for the sake of the dragons behind him, he believed that the other party would sell his face no matter what.
"Yes, teacher!" From the teacher's words, Winnie knew that Brother George should have explained the cause and effect to him, as long as the teacher was willing to intervene, I believe that her father would be released soon.
In the end, Zhou Kun ordered someone to write to Leopold, and when he compensated, he added an additional city, that is, the Iron Blood 22 Acropolis.
Leopold breathed a sigh of relief when he received the letter, originally his bottom line was 5 cities, but he didn't expect that in the end, the other party's appetite was much smaller than he expected.
With the help of this purge, many forces that disagreed with the Iron Family were pulled out by Leopold one by one. Now that the Iron Lord was of little value, Winnie's actions indirectly gave him a step to let go.
"Grand Duke, you can be reunited with your daughter. ”
Oche is no longer the iron-blooded Grand Duke he once was, his bloodline power is completely sealed, no different from an ordinary old man.
"Thank you, Your Majesty is complete!" In Ochefu's opinion, the safety of Winnie and Andrew is the most important thing, as long as the bloodline of the Iron Blood Family can continue, everything is worth it.
Ochumus arrived outside the city, and Winnie and Anquilla had been waiting for a long time.
"Father, brother is waiting for you to go back. ”
"Winnie, you did a great job, far exceeding my expectations. ”
The conversation between father and daughter seems a little stiff, but Winnie is now more concerned about her father's body.
"We'll wait until we get back to Nass City. ”
By the time Winnie took back the former Iron Will, the Grand Duke of Orange, it had been a week after the 22nd city of Steel had been laid. During the period, George was not idle, during Winnie's attack on the city, George laid a lot of dark lines in various acropolis, and now the city is about to be recovered, but George will not easily give up this low-hanging fruit, although nominally Leopold is still the owner of these acropolis, but George has held the economic lifeline of these cities tightly in his own hands.
After Zhou Kun sent a letter to Leopold, he began to search for traces of loquats, and sure enough, a large number of loquat trees were found outside the 22nd city.
"George, what is the process of the honey fruit fruit here?" Zhou Kun originally thought that it would still be cheap, but he didn't expect to come up with a surprising answer.
"Teacher, if you remove the flowers after the bloom fails, new shoots will emerge quickly, and it won't take long for them to bloom new flowers, so you can produce nectar all year round. ”
Is this to eat honey and not even want the fruit?
Zhou Kun sighed and said, "George, I want to taste the nectar of this reed orange." ”
He wanted to see how delicious this honey was, and he actually made these people from the other world not even eat the loquat fruit.
When the dark brown honey was placed in front of Zhou Kun, a faint fragrance of loquat flowers came to his nose, which was particularly refreshing and special.
But this thing can't replace the status of the loquat fruit in Zhou Kun's mind at all.
After taking a bite of loquat honey in the next second, Zhou Kun only felt that he had eaten so much honey in vain. The fragrance of loquat flowers in the nectar can be so strong, there is no too sweet taste of bees at all, every bite is so refreshing and sweet, and the lubrication slides into Zhou Kun's throat like oil, bringing him a new experience.
"George, I feel like I've got a new experiment to do. Zhou Kun's eyes revealed blazing heat, all this loquat honey is mine!
