Although Ji Shijun was very curious about Charles's gossip news, his intuition told him that now was not the time to inquire about this gossip.

Charles pondered for a moment, and then said, "I really don't have much food left here, and it's not practical to travel thousands of miles from here. ”

"In this way, at the end of January and the beginning of February, I will support you with a batch of seeds and farm tools for grain and vegetables, and the Kulen Basin was the place where grain was grown. ”

"Thank you so much!" Ji Shijun met Charles with tea instead of wine, food is his immediate concern, and the seeds and farm tools that are urgently needed at the beginning of spring next year are far-sighted.

Then Charles said, "You should have heard that I have some prestige on the elf side, let me see if I can hire some elven adventurers to help you." Although you can only hire those elves who have just reached adulthood now, two or three hundred years of education have made them all good at writing and martial arts, and how to play their role depends on your arrangement. ”

"Food......," Charles thought for a moment, "You have also seen the row of factories on the edge of the hot springs at the foot of the mountain, and I will let Ah Fu take you to visit it later, and if you are interested, you can talk to Mr. Spam the elf." ”

"I think it's good to open a factory to produce white jade meat over there, whether it's for yourself to eat or to make money from exporting. The elves have been trying to expand their production capacity, and they should agree to cooperate with you to build a factory. ”

"What is white jade meat?" Ji Shijun asked, just hearing the name, he felt that it was a very high-end thing.

Charles didn't have the intention of pranks, he introduced truthfully: "It is a meat brick made of a kind of insect chrysalis, which is simple to raise, the yield is not low, and the taste is very good." The elven army has purchases, and this time I helped a lot of the savannah, and the orcs liked it very much. ”

Ji Shijun thought for a while and said, "That's not bad, and it can be regarded as a guaranteed meat." ”

He felt that he had gained so much more than he had originally expected, and he couldn't ask for more.

However, he didn't expect a bigger meat bun to fall from the sky and hit him on the head.

Charles looked at Auston I and asked, "How about you put the flax with him?"

Auston I thought for a moment and said, "I have no opinion, and I don't think Linda will have an opinion." ”

Charles nodded and said, "They are not interested in this kind of commodity with low profits and relying on volume to make money. ”

"Then I have no reason to object. "It's a big market, and I didn't expect to be able to eat it all." ”

Ji Shijun listened quietly, not knowing what the two were talking about.

Then Charles said to him, "What do you think of my suggestion that you develop flax cultivation and weaving?"

"Linen?" Ji Shijun frowned, "I've also learned along the way, the current linen is woven by the peasant families themselves, and even if the cost of scale effect is reduced, it is difficult to offset the cost of transportation." ”

"However, it is good to be self-sufficient, and by the way, it is good to radiate the surrounding neighboring areas, so it is no trivial matter to have food, clothing, housing and transportation. ”

Because of institutional problems, human beings are still in a small-scale peasant economy, and most of the necessities of life can be self-sufficient.

Charles asked Ji Shijun directly: "Have you heard of Jenny spinning machine?"

"Wocao!" At this moment, Ji Shijun was not calm for a moment, "You guys are playing so big?"

"A Jenny spinning machine scares you?" said Auston I, "and if you knew they were working on a replacement for CNC machines, wouldn't you be scared of high blood pressure?"

"Let me take my time. Ji Shijun grabbed the teapot and poured himself a cup of tea, drank it all, and then pinched his brows.

After a while, he asked, "Aren't you going to take the route of fighting for world domination?"

Auston I raised his eyebrows and asked, "Don't you have this in mind?"

"Now that you have territory, population, and foreign aid, you have a proper start to farming, don't say you're not excited. ”

At this moment, Ji Shijun was silent, and he felt that he had come to a crossroads.

It's not that he hasn't thought about making achievements or something, but the difficulties of reality make him have no time to think more about this.

But the unexpectedly large amount of assistance provided by Auston I and Charles just now undoubtedly injected him with a shot of strength, and some of his thoughts buried deep in his heart gradually moved.

The silence lasted for five minutes, and Ji Shijun looked at Auston I and asked, "Aren't you afraid that I will take the life of you, the king, in the Northern Expedition under the Red Banner?"

Auston I smiled and shook his head, and said, "Then you have to hurry, because I am preparing to rebel." ”

Charles was there drinking tea and said, "You two just row the river and settle it." ”

Ji Shijun frowned and asked, "Are you planning something?" I think the political atmosphere in the north is a little strange. ”

Auston I changed the tea leaves in the teapot and said, "It's just a matter of integrating resources, and troubled times are coming." ”

Charles sighed.

"You want to go to war with the demons?" asked Ji Shijun.

Auston I shook his head and said, "Whoever fights and dies on the demon side, I plan to send the opposition in my country over." ”

Ji Shijun was confused and looked at Auston I in bewilderment.

Auston I shook his head and said, "When you're done with it, I'll talk to you about the affairs of this world in detail, this matter will not be clear for a while." ”

Seeing that the sky outside the house was about to get dark, Auston I stood up, pulled Ji Shijun out, and said at the same time: "It's not early, let's go down the mountain first, it's not easy to walk when it's dark." ”

The few of them had been chatting in the wooden hut on the top of the hill for a long time, and they were hungry, and it was time to go down to eat.

Ji Shijun took two steps and found that Charles and Diana did not follow, but Auston I closed the door.

"Let's go first. Auston I beckoned to Ji Shijun.

Ji Shijun followed in confusion and asked, "What's the matter with that big sister today, I feel that she is in a bad mood." ”

Auston I smiled bitterly and said, "Diana's situation is a bit special, let Charles comfort her." ”

"Oh?" Ji Shijun's eyes lit up and asked, "Could it be that the two of them are a couple?"

Auston I nodded and said, "The two of them started with a friendship of shared hardships and hardships, and then they had a common cause, which is not bad. ”

At this time, Ji Shijun found that Auston I had turned a corner on the way down the mountain and brought himself to a platform on the side of the cliff, where there were stone tables and stone benches, which was a good place to overlook the scenery
