066 Food Programme
By the time Larry and Lily returned to the royal city, the knights in the clearing had already begun to line up and pack their bags and prepare to go.
The knight at the head is Gawain, the leader of the Knights of the Round Table, and after him, there is Lancelot, whom he met yesterday, and Tristan, the "blind" knight that Larry is very familiar with, although he has not seen it.
These three also have the title of "Roundtable Wind Review Murdered Trio".
Of course, it wasn't time to think about these things, and Larry hurriedly walked in front of Gawain.
"Gao Wenqing, are you planning to go south?"
Gawain, who had just put on his helmet, slowly turned his head, the sound of iron grinding was a little harsh, Gawain looked at Larry, paused slightly, and then said, "Yes, we are now about to leave for the south to assist Kai in dealing with the French invaders." ”
There was no further explanation, or Gawain didn't seem to really want to talk to Larry.
He also understands the reason, after all, Gawain is suspicious of bringing Larry to Camelot, but he didn't expect that the king actually met Larry directly in person last night, and asked him to prepare a guest room at night.
In other words, Wang doesn't think there is anything wrong with Larry's identity, which is a bit of a surprise to Gawain.
Especially after Wang and Larry had some exchanges, he stayed in the room and did not come out, nor did he return to the dormitory, which is the most difficult thing for Gawain to understand.
But he couldn't ask anything, it was the king's decision after all.
"Is that so? That's really hard, is the king still in the tower? There are some things I want to discuss with the king. ”
If that outsider, or even a knight who wasn't a knight of the Round Table, said this, Gawain would probably think it was a very rude act.
But after what happened last night, Gawain couldn't point out Larry's rude behavior so directly, and what Larry said next made it impossible for him to refuse the request.
"I have a little idea that might be able to solve the food problem in Britain right now."
Gawain was silent, not only him, but Lancelot and Tristan on the side all looked sideways slightly, looking at Larry, if there is a big problem in Britain now, it is definitely not an external enemy, but a shortage of food.
"Do you have a solution?" Gawain's heart was full of curiosity at this time, even the knights living in the local area had not thought of a solution, what kind of solution could Ryry think of to solve the food problem?
"I have a little idea, but I still need some information, and I need a little help, and I definitely can't do it alone." Larry smiled. "After all, I can't bring back all the food Britain needs by myself, can I?"
It seemed like a joke, and Gawain was a little unsure whether Larry really wanted to help them.
"What's that solution, can you explain a little bit to us here? Mr. Larry. Lancelot walked over, his voice low, and he stared at Larry, showing no special emotion.
"That's right, there is a way, since Britain can't produce so much food now, so it has to be shipped from somewhere else."
Hearing this, Lancelot immediately burst out laughing.
"That is, to trade with other countries? It's stupid, do you think any country will sell us food? Impossible. ”
Although there are many neighboring countries, not all of them are at war with Britain, but not every country has friendly relations with Britain, not to mention Ireland to the west, is also an island with poor food, and the mainland to the south is also under the blockage of France, wanting to transport grain from other places? Impossible.
Gawain slapped his forehead helplessly, there was really a moment just now, he thought that Larry really had a way to solve this problem, but now it seems that it is just a mindless nonsense, such a person, I don't think it will be a spy.
"Of course, this is impossible for the knights of Britain, after all, as long as you go out, you will definitely be recognized, but I am different."
Although Larry told Gawain that he was a citizen of Rome, there was no one who knew him in this peculiarity, and as long as he spread out and buy food in multiple places and transport it back to Britain, there was no major problem.
"Hmph, so how many men do you need to deliver food? How do I store it in transit? If you're going to cross the ocean to the opposite continent to buy food, and it's already going bad before the food is delivered, have you ever thought about these things? ”
Lancelot seemed to have lost interest in Larry's words, and turned back to gather his bags.
Lyry didn't pay much attention to Lancelot's cynicism, he just looked down and thought about something, and after a moment, Larry continued, "Hmm..... There aren't many people needed, but it's enough for about three of us, and there is no problem with the delivery of food, and I can guarantee that the food can be kept fresh for a month. ”
"Mr. Larry....." Gawain looked embarrassed, he felt that Larry was probably a little crazy, this situation is actually not uncommon in Britain, let alone a month, the current Britain does not even have a way to keep food for a week, unless it is smoked food, but that kind of thing can not alleviate the current problem.
Even if what he said was true, how much food could three people transport? At all, far water cannot quench the thirst of the near, and there is no need to even implement it.
"Well, I understand Gao Wenqing and Lancelot's thoughts, so I won't bother the two of you, I will explain the situation directly to Wang." With that, Larry walked forward.
However, the falling blade blocked his path, and Lancelot probably didn't want Leyry's naïve thoughts to affect the king, so he stopped Larry's actions in the first place.
"There's no need to let the king know about that kind of boring joke, you better go back to the guest room and stay quiet."
The smile on Larry's face gradually retracted, and Gawain and Lily in the rear wanted to step forward to stop the excesses of the two, but they were stopped by Lancelot's eyes, it seemed that he really didn't like Larry's naïve thoughts.
"Whew, okay, Lancelot, I actually respect you, but if you stop me like this, I can't help it, you can't understand my plan, it doesn't mean that I can't do these things."
The golden pupils flashed, but in the blink of an eye, Larry had disappeared from Lancelot's eyes and walked slowly towards the tower.
"Huh?" Lancelot's eyes widened suddenly, he didn't see how Larry moved, it should be said that for a moment, Larry seemed to disappear.
also showed this expression, as well as Gao Wen and Lily in the back.
Larry, on the other hand, walked calmly towards the tower as if nothing had happened.
