"Among the thirteen countries, we have now reached a cooperation agreement with the Chijian Kingdom, the Liang Sword Country, the Barbarian Sword Country and the Jing Sword Kingdom with the local big consortiums, as for the other countries, except for the Chong Sword Country and the Sha Sword Country, they have not yet found a suitable candidate for cooperation, and the others have expressed an ambiguous attitude, and they should have the opportunity to fight for it."

The sunlight outside the window poured in.

Liang Mingfeng was lying on the bed, his back against the white shell-shiny wall, one leg in plaster cast and hanging in mid-air.

Due to the leg injury, he could only lie on the hospital bed and report to Emiya.

Emiya didn't speak, looked at his legs with some reproach and concern, and nodded.

Liang Mingfeng had already said very tactfully just now, where could Chong Jianguo and Sha Jianguo find no suitable candidates for cooperation, and it would be good if there was no targeting and retaliation.

He knew very well the reason for Chong Jianguo's side, it was estimated that it was because of the reason he offended Ye Ziqing last time, and with her influence, it was very likely that no one would dare to cooperate with them.

As for Sha Jianguo's side-

Wei Gong looked at Liang Mingfeng sideways, although he didn't understand why this person didn't say a word about the attack on Sha Jianguo a few days ago, even if he knew who the other party was, he didn't have the slightest intention to tell him, but judging from the results and attitude, Sha Jianguo's reluctance to cooperate was mostly related to this silver-haired boy.

Liang Mingfeng sensed Wei Gong's gaze, moved his upper body slightly, and shifted his gaze to the window.

"Good!"

Wei Gong's hand slapped Liang Mingfeng's shoulder, affecting the injury in his lower body, and Liang Mingfeng gasped in pain.

"With the addition of the two base camps of the Dream Sword Country and the Heavenly Sword Country, the results of this lobbying have been very significant."

"As for the rest," Emiya said, standing up, his face full of confidence, "they don't know if they're going to make a profit, and they don't know how big the market or the profit is, so let our partners tell them how stupid they are." ”

If you don't come in at the most favorable time, your bargaining chips are destined to get smaller and smaller!

Those who wait and see are nothing more than waiting to see if he will succeed or fail in the palace.

Either it's the icing on the cake or it's worse.

It's exciting.

"It's time to eat."

At this moment, Luo Didong's voice sounded outside.

……

During the period when Wei Gong was away, he had to ask Luo Didong to rush back from Chongjian Country to take care of Cui Xiaoxiao.

With a person like her, who has all her mind on scientific research, she will probably starve to death if no one cooks for her.

Moreover, it just so happened that the Wei Palace had something to discuss with Luo Didong.

However, when Wei Gong pushed Liang Mingfeng out and saw the food on the table, the whole person opened his mouth in surprise.

Pickles, dried fish, baked pancakes......

"Is our family bankrupt?" Wei Gong looked at Cui Xiaoxiao in disbelief, his eyes widened, "What did you do during my absence?!" ”

"What's my business?"

Cui Xiaoxiao next to her sat on a wooden chair, swinging her legs leisurely while wrapping pickles in pancakes.

She took a bite, lowered her brows, and carefully selected the larger dried fish, "I have to ask your sword Rin Sakura." ”

"Under the order of His Majesty Kenrin Sakura, the grain will be distributed by the state in a unified manner."

Luo Didong wiped his hands on his apron and explained to them with a smile, "It seems that it started three days ago, and every morning the local policy agency uniformly distributes food according to the situation of the family's population. The exact reason for this is also unclear. ”

"That's right."

Emiya sat down silently and took a bite of the hard dough.

Is there something wrong with it?

"Food crisis." Liang Mingfeng, who was in a wheelchair, said expressionlessly.

"What?" Frightened by his words, Emiya turned his head and looked at him in disbelief.

"Generally speaking, such a decision would not be made if there was enough food, because it was easy to disturb the people's hearts and make people feel uneasy and distrustful of the royal family. Food rationing can only occur in two situations – in the slums of a rich country, or in the event of a large-scale food crisis. ”

"But ......"

Wei Gong admitted that this military advisor was very reasonable, but it was fine a month ago, and there were still fish, shrimp, meat and crabs for dinner at that time......

How could it change so suddenly?

"But," Liang Mingfeng thought for a moment, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, "Sword Rin Sakura's courage is really big. It stands to reason that in any case, the interests of the upper class, or the elite, are guaranteed. Even in a barren country like Shajian Country, where the north and south are divided and a third of the desert is located, only the sand people at the bottom suffer, as long as you have money, you can still buy everything, fine clothes and food, and fill the pool with water that the poor can't drink. ”

Liang Mingfeng paused, his eyes flickering, as if he remembered something.

Wei Gong thought to himself, it turns out that Sha Jianguo is like this......

"Kenrin Sakura's idea that everyone is equal is really terrifying, even if you have money like us, you can't buy food, this kind of practice is really like ......"

Liang Mingfeng wanted to speak and stopped, originally wanted to say that it was like a big pot of rice policy in a certain era and a certain country, but when he saw Wei Gong's eyes, he forcibly suppressed the words behind him.

Wei Gong listened to what he said, and there was a trace of discomfort in his heart.

In a way, Kenrin Sakura is indeed a fool.

He propped his hands on the table and stood up.

"I'll go out."

"Emiya." Liang Mingfeng stopped him, and did not add titles such as boss or master to the back of the palace.

"Huh?" Emiya looked back.

"Sometimes, we can't afford to bear the fate of others." Liang Mingfeng said lightly.

Fate?

Emiya had never thought about this question, and stood in place in a daze, suddenly feeling that the burden on his body was so heavy.

From the fate of another person, he didn't realize it was such a huge weight before.

Cui Xiaoxiao also stopped the chopsticks in her hand and raised her head to look at Wei Gong.

Although she didn't like Kenrin Sakura very much, she hated the argument of the chief military advisor just now.

For scientists, the individual and all of humanity are vague concepts, and the pursuit of supreme truth and the advancement of the times are their ultimate goals.

According to Liang Mingfeng, people like her are more like megalomaniacs who carry the fate of everyone and claim to be the savior.

But, in reality, a lot of things are far simpler than you think.

I just like it.

Cui Xiaoxiao looked at Wei Gong's well-defined face, and her heart was pounding.

She opened her mouth and said something that might make her regret it for the rest of her life, "What does it mean to bear the fate of others?" In fact, what you are pursuing is your own heart, if you want to, do it. Because—

We are free. ”

Freely......

"Thank you." Emiya nodded, then opened the door and rushed out.

Leave a room of silence.

Cui Xiaoxiao quietly ate the small dried fish on the plate, completely ignoring the surprised gaze cast by Liang Mingfeng, and Luo Didong on the side was still confused.

"What the hell were you talking about?"
