Chapter Seventy-Eight: Grain Seeds!

A week later, Romero and others did the same.

Fran established a rudimentary hukou system and allocated land use rights according to the hukou system, and each family was able to obtain a private land to build a house, a policy that encouraged the people of the federal empire.

Moreover, this household registration survey found that many officials of the former kingdom, including experts in various fields, have been absorbed into the government formed by the new cabinet, and the functions of the government have basically been improved.

Romero then counted all the property and supplies, and added the government's work expenditure since the week to provide a detailed report.

Looking at the report, Tang Ning found that he did not have a lot of time left, according to the current government finances, the government will go bankrupt in half a year, and as for the materials, it will probably be able to support half a year.

Half a year, too, is enough.

Master Merlin conducted a medical examination and treatment for each of the population, and the hygiene problems were greatly controlled.

Finally, there is Thorin, the guard has been formed, according to Thorin's report, the household registration survey found that there are still many military members of the former kingdom here, including soldiers and officers, so the construction of the guard and the bailiff team is good.

"Your Majesty, there is a major discovery, the deputy chief of police in the city of Barbis is also in the ranks, and there is also a general from the kingdom period. ”

There are such talents......

Tang Ning was a little surprised, and immediately summoned the two.

"Holman Meets Your Majesty......"

The tall, thin man who had been recruited from the guard into the palace was dressed in a linen shirt, knelt on one knee and bowed his head, his long hair a little knotted because he had not bathed for a long time.

Downing frowned.

"Holman look up. ”

The man who raised his head had a square face, about forty years old, and although he was yellow and thin because of the lack of supplies, he could also see the soul of a soldier.

After confirming this, Downing questioned Holman as the king, who was appointed chief of the guard and assistant to the secretary of defense, responsible for training the members of the guard, and sharing defense duties with Thorin.

Then came an elegant man, and at first glance Downing almost thought it was Cross, his old boss.

The elegant man knelt on one knee and performed the standard police etiquette.

"Grant's greetings to Your Majesty. ”

Seeing the etiquette of the police officers, Tang Ning subconsciously got up and returned to the etiquette of the Investigation Bureau, and then sat down.

"Grant, you are the Chief of the Bailiff General and the Attorney General, assisting Barron Vincent in maintaining law and order. ”

With professional talent, it is easier to carry out the work.

Now that the basic government framework has been built and needs to be improved, Downing will issue an order.

"According to the registered household registration information, continue to recruit relevant personnel to serve in the government, improve the government system, and better perform government duties. ”

......

It will take some time to form a fully functioning government, and Downing can take the opportunity to go outside and think about resuming production.

Agricultural production is an important part of this, and since it is not possible to grow in the dark market, it can only be done on the ground.

Holman was temporarily summoned as an aide to the Secretary of Defense.

Holman entered the door and knelt down and saluted, waiting to be dispatched.

Downing got dressed and brought his weapon.

"Holman with thirty members of the Guard, we're going to take a look on the ground. ”

......

Walking out of the palace, the otherwise lifeless dark market is a completely different scene.

All the residents are busy, building houses on their own land, and the materials for building houses are very simple, just move in from the ground during the day, completely free.

Passing by a house, a family under construction immediately saluted respectfully.

"Long live Your Majesty. ”

It seems that the first phase of government has been fruitful, and proper democracy has made the inhabitants of the area grateful to themselves.

Tang Ning nodded slightly, and went to the ground under the protection of his entourage.

......

Walking out of the dark market, entering the ground and breathing in the fresh air, many residents who were carrying materials saluted one after another, and did not forget to say "Long live Your Majesty".

A large number of houses have been relocated, a large area of land has been vacated, and the land that has not been planted for a long time is fertile, and looking around at the open space, Downing's eyes linger on the most luxurious building in his vision, the royal palace of the former kingdom.

He had a whim.

"Holman what do you know about the palace?"

Holman immediately got down on one knee and responded respectfully.

"Back to Your Majesty, my position is in the army, and I don't know much about the palace. ”

Tang Ning asked a different way.

"Where are the treasury and grain depots of the kingdom?"

Such a huge kingdom must have a treasury and grain store, and although the king took a large amount of property with him when he left, there will definitely be fish that have slipped through the net of great wealth, and if he gets some of it, it will alleviate the problem at hand.

Holman pointed to the southwest corner of the city of Barbis.

"The granary is there, and as for the treasury, it should be in the palace. ”

Hearing this, Tang Ning quickly led the people to the southwest, through the towering wall, to a tall warehouse building.

The gate made of fine iron was about five meters high and about ten meters wide, and after a turn, all the doors of the grain depot were opened, and the interior was empty.

"They took all the food with them. ”

Downing was a little disappointed, but a house the size of an ordinary resident's house caught his attention, and he stood in front of it for a long time.

The small house is made of fine iron, only the size of a normal door, and the door is carved with complex symbols, densely packed, some magic symbols, similar to the symbols on the door of the Secret Archives of the Investigation Bureau.

"What kind of stuff needs to be sealed with magic?"

Downing motioned to Holman.

"Turn it on. ”

Holman stepped forward and pulled out the silver sword, which fell.

Sparks flew, and Holman let out a scream, and took a few steps backwards, blood flowing from the palm of his sword.

The thirty guards who followed looked frightened and took a few steps back.

After a moment's hesitation, Tang Ning stepped forward to take the silver sword in Holman and stepped forward to make a move.

"Your Majesty, this house has been enchanted and cannot be opened. ”

Holman who had been injured just now reminded him by covering the wound with his other hand, looking worried.

Now that Tang Ning was immune to all magic, he ignored the reminder and stepped forward, and the silver sword in his hand fell heavily.

"Qiang"

The sound of metal clashing sounded, and another burst of sparks erupted.

Tang Ning's arm was numb from the shock of the silver sword, but he was not injured by the magic backlash, but because his strength was not enough, he did not cut the iron lock.

After hesitating for a moment, he returned the sword to Holman and took out the Beretta 92F from his arms, touched his only eyebrow, and aimed the muzzle of the gun at the iron lock and pulled the trigger.

There were two loud bangs, and the iron lock was destroyed.

Seeing this, the members of the guard looked shocked and stared at the red object in the young king's hand.

Downing put his pistol away and motioned for a member of the guard to step forward and open the iron door.

The members of the guard stepped forward and picked off the iron lock with their silver swords, and carefully pressed the blade against the iron door to open it.

Light enters, illuminated by the interior of the house without windows.

Probing in the faint light, many sacks were piled up inside.

"Go in and see what's it?"

The guards who had opened the door cautiously entered the interior, and after a moment carried out a sack, and then cut a hole with his sword, and the wheat leaked out of the sack like quicksand.

Tang Ning frowned, leaned down to inspect the wheat, which was much fuller than ordinary edible wheat grains, and looked more sophisticated.

"It's wheat seeds. ”

After observing for a long time, I came to the conclusion that the wheat here was full of grains, and it was obvious that the wheat seeds were carefully selected from the grain depot, and it was reasonable for the seeds to be protected by magic, after all, it was related to the next year's grain depot harvest.

This is definitely a huge discovery for the Federal Empire.

"Holman, have the guards bring the sacks back to the palace and put them away individually. ”

......

Back inside the palace, check again, and there are corn seeds in addition to wheat seeds.

It looks like the king forgot to take the grain seeds with him before leaving.

Faced with hundreds of bags of seeds, Tangning immediately summoned Master Merlin, the Minister of Agriculture.

When Master Merlin saw these seeds, he didn't realize the magic of these seeds, and immediately reminded them.

"Your Majesty, these better quality grains can be kept in the treasury and you can enjoy them alone. ”

Downing shook his head.

"Eat them to waste, and I'm going to use these seeds to start agricultural production in the Federal Empire. ”
